Beheading the General

"Aaaah!!"

The heart-wrenching scream jolted Li Fei awake from the shock of his first kill.

A man in a dark gray robe, wielding a knife, charged at Li Fei with a ferocious expression.

From the information he had obtained beforehand, Li Fei knew that this person should be a Senior Disciple of the Tranquil God Sect, likely possessing Techniques, and couldn't help but feel wary.

The person he had just killed seemed to have a close relationship with this man, as the man's eyes were filled with hatred as he looked at him.

Judging from the way the man held his knife and the speed he burst forth, he had clearly practiced martial arts.

The distance between them rapidly closed, and just as they were about to engage, the man flicked his left hand, throwing something at Li Fei.

Li Fei was startled and immediately retreated, lowering his head and raising his arm to shield himself.

He thought the man had thrown Lime Powder, but it was just a yellow Talisman Paper.

As he threw the Talisman Paper, the man made a strange sound, like a crow cawing.

As soon as the sound rang out, the Talisman Paper ignited without fire.

The next second, Li Fei felt something invisible assail him, and then, there was no then. He paused slightly, saw the man slash at him with his knife, and almost instinctively used the Rolling Thunder Stance again.

He swung his knife from the upper right to the lower left, colliding heavily with the man's knife.

Clang—

The man's knife was deflected, and Li Fei immediately flipped his wrist, drawing his knife backhand and slashing upwards, then from the lower left to the upper right.

"You"

The man looked at Li Fei in astonishment.

He didn't understand why his 'Tranquil God Talisman' had no effect on Li Fei.

The 'Tranquil God Talisman' was the fundamental Talisman of the Tranquil God Sect, capable of quickly inducing sleep. Even when used against Martial Warriors with strong willpower and abundant blood, this Talisman could cause the opponent to suddenly feel sleepy, their attention diverted, thus exposing an opening.

But judging from Li Fei's reaction, the Tranquil God Talisman had no effect on him at all! The man retreated a step in time, leaning back to dodge Li Fei's upward slash, and then immediately swung his knife at Li Fei's arm.

Then the second unexpected thing happened: Li Fei didn't dodge or evade, allowing him to slash at his hand.

Swish—

His knife tore through Li Fei's clothes, solidly striking Li Fei's right arm holding the knife.

But the sensation of the strike was not like cutting into flesh, but like cutting into an inflated tire. The blade only left a shallow mark on Li Fei's arm, not even breaking the skin.

The third surprise.

The man was horrified. The series of unexpected events had cost him his last chance. As he struck Li Fei's arm, Li Fei slashed his knife across his neck.

Anyone who has killed knows that when the carotid artery in the neck is severed, blood will gush out. If you're standing in the wrong position, it's easy to get covered in blood.

Li Fei naturally had no experience, so he was drenched. His face and Stab Proof Vest were splattered with blood, and the strong smell of blood drilled straight into his nose, making him feel nauseous.

But there was no time for him to feel nauseous. Gunshots rang out in his ears, and an arrow even struck his lower abdomen, but it failed to penetrate the steel plate of the Stab Proof Vest.

This is the danger of being First to Ascend!

"Hurry up!"

Lu Changwu shouted loudly.

He had also quickly dealt with one person just now, and together with Li Fei, they temporarily cleared a safe area on the platform.

The people below successively climbed up the wooden wall. Li Fei pulled out the arrow stuck in his stab proof vest and took the initiative to rush towards a Tranquil God Sect Cultist nearest to him.

The opponent was holding a Native Gun in his hand, had already fired a shot, and was now reloading.

This Native Gun was loaded from the breech, firing one shot at a time, with a very slow rate of fire.

Seeing Li Fei rushing towards him, the Cultist immediately threw down the Native Gun that had not yet been loaded, picked up a knife from the ground, and stabbed at Li Fei.

Li Fei saw from the opponent's posture that he had not practiced martial arts. He waved his knife and used the back of the blade to knock open the opponent's stabbing knife, and then took advantage of the situation to press the opponent's blade with his own, pushing forward along the blade.

Using the Mountain-Pushing Stance, he easily slashed the opponent's wrist, forcing him to drop the knife, and then slashed his throat again.

This time, with experience, Li Fei dodged to the side in time, avoiding being splattered with blood.

When he turned around to deal with the next one, he saw several people in the distance turning around and running away.

"Go!"

Li Fei turned around and greeted the few people who had just climbed onto the platform, preparing to continue killing and open the gate of the stronghold.

Hearing his words, the others looked at him blankly, not reacting for a moment.

At this time, Li Fei's face was covered in blood, and his black stab proof vest was dyed red. His murderous appearance completely subverted his usual gentle and upright image.

"Go!"

Lu Changwu was the first to react, shouted, and ran towards Li Fei.

The others followed suit.

There were several ladders behind the platform, but Li Fei did not climb the ladders, as that would be too slow.

At a height of more than three meters, he chose to jump directly from the platform.

Lu Changwu and others also followed his example and jumped off the platform.

"Stop them!"

At this moment, a Senior Disciple wearing a dark gray robe led more than a dozen fresh troops running towards this side.

Fortunately, these people were not holding guns, but ordinary weapons, and some even held hoes.

Li Fei looked at the Senior Disciple wearing the dark gray robe, took a deep breath, turned his head and said to the others, "Go open the door!"

After speaking, he rushed towards the dozen or so people on the opposite side! Seeing this, Lu Changwu hesitated for a moment, did not rush with Li Fei, but turned around and went to open the gate of the stronghold with the others.

The Tranquil God Sect Senior Disciple saw Li Fei rushing over alone, and immediately showed a ferocious look:

"Courting death! Charge with me!"

He took the lead, with a strong man on his left and right holding knives, and together they met Li Fei.

The distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer, and then Li Fei and the leading Senior Disciple made almost the same movement:

With a forceful flick of his left hand, he tossed something forward.

The Senior Disciple threw out a Tranquil God Talisman, while Li Fei threw out a bag of Lime Powder.

Whoosh—

The white Lime Powder scattered in the air, enveloping all three of them.

The Senior Disciple's face was covered in lime, but he still managed to let out a crow-like screech.

The Talisman Paper ignited in mid-air without fire.

Li Fei, completely unaffected, continued his charge, slashing his blade at the opponent.

"Ah!"

The Senior Disciple screamed, as Li Fei hacked him down to the ground.

At this moment, one of the burly men who had charged with him reacted, slashing his blade at Li Fei.

This man had only been slightly hindered by the lime, and unlike his companion, hadn't gotten any in his eyes, so he was able to make a timely rescue.

Li Fei switched to a two-handed grip, twisting his waist and hips, and suddenly turned to slash horizontally to his left!

Clang—

The two blades clashed, sparks erupting from the point of impact.

The burly man on the left felt a tremendous force surge towards him, causing the blade in his hand to fly out of his grip. He was then bisected across half his neck by Li Fei's blade!

Li Fei turned again to slash his blade to the right, cutting down the burly man who had gotten lime in his eyes.

Only then did he have time to look down at the Senior Disciple in the dark gray robe on the ground.

"You..."

Pfft—

Li Fei stabbed his blade into the other's chest.

The remaining dozen or so who had come with this man were all frightened and dared not continue forward.

At this moment, Lu Changwu and the others had already opened the gate of the mountain stronghold. Lu Sheng and the others, who had been waiting at the gate, happened to see this scene: Li Fei, covered in blood, in front of a dozen enemies, plunged his blade into the chest of a Tranquil God Sect Senior Disciple!
