The light streaked across, as brilliant as fireworks, yet as fleeting as a shooting star.
In front of another Guard, it took away a fresh life.
"You..."
The Guard who was struck had a look of deep bewilderment on his face, and in the blink of an eye, all this bewilderment turned into unwillingness, leaping onto his face.
Thump!
Even as he fell, his eyes were still fixed on Su Chen's other arm, the flickering anger not dissipating even in death.
"Second brother..."
The other Guard stood there for a long time before he came back to his senses, looking at his second brother who had died tragically under Su Chen's blade, and roared.
"Ah, I'm going to kill you!"
In the next moment, his figure burst out like lightning, every move carrying a bellyful of anger, venting it without reservation.
Faced with the Guard's violent offensive, Su Chen's expression was calm, his eyes as sharp as knives, advancing step by step.
"Bastard, if you have the guts, don't run!"
After a long attack, the Guard roared with an ugly face.
He had been attacking fiercely, hoping to make contact with Su Chen, so that he could use his force to shatter his heart and avenge his brother.
But Su Chen had no intention of confronting him head-on, instead dodging left and right, and occasionally making a move with his blade, as if he was just dealing with him.
This fight between the two gave him the feeling that it was not a battle of life and death, but rather that Su Chen was playing with a child.
This feeling made the anger in his heart even greater, and his moves became even more frantic.
Su Chen naturally saw his change, and after he had perfunctorily teased the other party, a smile unconsciously appeared on the corner of his mouth.
The opportunity has come!
Su Chen paused, stopped his body, and then suddenly stepped out, a stride, rushing forward.
"Well done!"
Seeing this scene, the Guard's expression was overjoyed, and he couldn't help shouting, and then took three steps in two, and came to Su Chen in a flash.
"Hahaha, your death is here!"
The smile on his face became more and more distinct as the distance to Su Chen closed, the corners of his mouth gradually splitting, revealing his mood at the moment.
The movements on his hands were not slow at all, on the arm that Su Chen had not noticed, the muscles bulged rapidly, and the force condensed on his palm along his arm.
Chih!
The Guard swung his arm, clenched his hand into a fist, and retracted it backward, as if there were invisible air waves fluctuating between the retractions, and then suddenly punched out, only to hear a whistling sound suddenly sounded, a fist as big as a casserole pot came like a high-speed drill.
Su Chen's eyes narrowed, stretched out his arm, his five fingers condensed into a fist, and a punch was offered, as if the surrounding air was squeezed away.
Bang!
The two fists touched, and immediately stirred up invisible air waves, sweeping in all directions, rolling up the sleeves and hair of the two.
The muscles on both faces trembled slightly due to the immense force, rippling outwards.
"What, you, you're actually a Practice Force Warrior!"
The expression of triumphant revenge had just appeared on the Guard's face when it instantly froze at the moment of collision with Su Chen's fist, and his entire body petrified on the spot.
He stared at Su Chen in astonishment, seemingly not expecting that Su Chen was also a Practice Force Warrior.
But the fierce force coming from Su Chen's arm was wantonly ravaging his internal organs.
No, you're a Practice Force Warrior, why are you pretending to be weak!
He roared silently in his heart, a huge sense of frustration and anger erupting like a volcano.
If he could speak now, he would definitely curse loudly.
A Practice Force Warrior not only disguised himself as a One-Armed man to launch a sneak attack, but also deliberately concealed his inner force to deceive his opponent. In his life, he had never seen such a despicable and insidious Practice Force Warrior!
"Cough cough cough!"
Under great anger, a touch of red surged onto his cheeks, and then he coughed heavily several times, spitting out a mouthful of blood that had accumulated in his throat with a wah, and his complexion improved slightly.
Then, he looked up at Su Chen, unable to hold back any longer, and cursed angrily, "Damn your mother!"
This was his last stubbornness before death!
Su Chen was stunned for a moment, did not speak, but watched quietly.
In less than a few breaths, the Guard's body tilted backward. Under the dual attack of Su Chen's powerful attack and force, just shouting the sentence just now had exhausted all his strength.
Now he could no longer hold on, his breath was weak, and soon after falling, he returned to the west and completely lost his breath.
Su Chen came to the bodies of the two men with a calm expression, groped around, and looking at the silver he had found, he sighed softly:
"Only thirty-three taels of silver in total, why work so hard!"
He shook his head, put away the silver, and turned to leave.
Not long after Su Chen left, a group of Yamen Runners in official uniforms came over and took the bodies of the two men away.
After leaving, Su Chen changed his clothes and, before it got dark, came to the County Office.
The Yamen Runners of the County Office obviously recognized Su Chen and did not make things difficult for him. After going in to report, they called out the Yamen Clerk.
"Yang Zhuangshi!"
The Yamen Clerk cupped his hands at Su Chen, his expression slightly moved. Just now, he received the news of Chu Ming's death.
Not only that, but the government also found two additional bodies. After investigation, it was learned that the two were Chu Ming's Guards.
Chu Ming was killed first, and the two died soon after. Needless to say, the deaths of the two must be related to Su Chen.
Su Chen nodded, still looking aloof. The Yamen Clerk didn't care and said, "Yang Zhuangshi, the County Magistrate has been waiting inside for a long time, please!"
Following the Yamen Clerk into the hall, the County Magistrate Tao Wenxuan greeted him and said with a smile, "Yang Zhuangshi is indeed highly skilled, and completed the reward so easily."
This was not boasting. Before Su Chen took the reward task, several Blade Catchers had also taken it, but without exception, all of these people disappeared inexplicably.
Since Su Chen took the task, so many days had passed, and he thought that Su Chen, like others, would never return. He did not expect that Su Chen would give him a surprise today and successfully kill Chu Ming.
Tao Wenxuan lightly clapped his hands, and a maid brought out one hundred taels of silver. Su Chen, who had been expressionless all along, squeezed out a smile the moment he saw the silver and said, "Master Tao is too kind."
Seeing Su Chen accept the silver, Tao Wenxuan smiled and gestured for Su Chen to sit down and chat slowly, but Su Chen shook his head, "I still have things to do, so I won't disturb you two."
"Hold on." Tao Wenxuan helplessly stopped Su Chen. How could this guy not understand what he meant?
"Does County Magistrate Tao have anything else?" Su Chen asked.
Tao Wenxuan didn't speak, and the Yamen Clerk beside him said in a timely manner, "Yang Zhuangshi, we have another reward mission here, I wonder if you are interested?"
Without the Yamen Clerk speaking, Tao Wenxuan, as if he had a hold on Su Chen, said, "The reward is two hundred taels!"
"Tell me about it!" Su Chen raised an eyebrow, intrigued.
The Yamen Clerk glanced at Tao Wenxuan and then said, "The person to be killed in this reward mission is called Wei Jie, also a member of the Rebirth Sect."
Hearing this, Su Chen looked at the Yamen Clerk. What's going on? Are you guys going against the Rebirth Sect?
