Lu Gang, Lurking in the Shadows, Reveals His Strength!

Demon Suppression Division assessment.

Lin Feng was determined to win!

He nodded, "Thank you for the reminder, senior."

Then he turned and left.

He hadn't expected that he had actually been cultivating for so many days?

Only two days left until the Demon Suppression Division's year-end assessment, it truly was brief.

It was already late at this time.

Lin Feng walked on the road back, his mind clear.

There were two things he needed to do next.

Prepare for the Demon Suppression Division assessment two days later.

And, investigate the truth behind his father's death.

However, Lin Feng didn't notice.

In a corner outside the Scripture Pavilion, a pair of eyes were watching him. As soon as he came out, the figure immediately left.

The night was starless and moonless, and the surroundings were terrifyingly silent.

Near the house where Lin Feng lived, a figure appeared like a ghost.

In the darkness, this figure suddenly revealed a pair of eyes full of hatred. It was Lu Gang.

"You little beast! You've finally come out."

"You made me wait so long!"

Lu Gang's face was ashen in the corner, and his body was filled with an incredibly terrifying killing intent!

He swore he wouldn't rest until he had torn Lin Feng to pieces!

If Lin Feng hadn't returned alive, he wouldn't have been discovered by Captain Chen.

Nor would he have been fined six months' salary!

That was six months!

Losing that salary was a huge loss.

Furthermore, from now on, he would no longer have the ability to control those Demon Suppression Division positions.

Quite a few people had already given him bribes.

After being discovered by Captain Chen, everything went up in smoke, and he had to return all those bribes.

On the night after Lin Feng went to the Scripture Pavilion.

Lu Gang was furious and harbored a strong killing intent towards Lin Feng.

That night, he came near Lin Feng's residence, intending to strike at an opportune moment.

However, Lin Feng had been cultivating in the Scripture Pavilion for several consecutive days.

This prevented Lu Gang from succeeding.

So, he sent people to guard the Scripture Pavilion day and night, waiting for Lin Feng to return so he could make his move.

The figure at the entrance of the Scripture Pavilion just now was his subordinate.

As soon as Lu Gang saw Lin Feng come out, he immediately received the news and rushed over.

Lu Gang's entire body was filled with violent True Qi.

His eyes were full of murderous intent, and the veins on his arms bulged.

Countless scenes had flashed through his mind, naturally depicting him tearing Lin Feng to pieces.

Only by doing so could he vent his hatred!

Just then.

Footsteps could be heard in the distance.

Lu Gang's pupils contracted, and he stared intently at the source of the sound.

It was Lin Feng.

"He's finally here!"

A sinister smile appeared on Lu Gang's face as he lurked in the shadows of the doorway.

At this moment, no one could see him.

"Hmph... unfortunately, to avoid being discovered, I must end him quickly with one palm!"

In the darkness, Lu Gang was brewing powerful True Qi in his right palm.

He felt a little unwilling. In Lu Gang's opinion, letting Lin Feng die so quickly was letting him off too easily.

Lin Feng walked closer, step by step, until Lu Gang was only a single step away from him.

"Now."

Lu Gang's gaze sharpened, and he let out a low growl, "Black Fiend Palm!"

He channeled his True Qi, and his right palm turned a bizarre black, swirling with dark energy, possessing infinite power!

With a swish, Lu Gang emerged from the shadows and slammed his palm towards Lin Feng!

The speed was so fast it was almost impossible to react.

In a flash of lightning, Lin Feng suddenly turned his head, his pupils constricting!

A figure leaped into the air, striking at him with a palm.

That palm contained True Qi.

It was a Houtian expert!

"He wants to kill me! Who is this Houtian Realm expert?!"

In an instant, countless images flashed through Lin Feng's mind.

But even as he thought.

Lin Feng fully activated all three layers of his Iron Shirt.

At this moment, his defensive power reached its peak!

Boom!!

Lu Gang's palm struck down, squeezing all the surrounding air out.

Simultaneously, the ball of black energy from his palm directly hit Lin Feng.

Lu Gang's face bore a sinister grin of triumph.

He hadn't held back any of his strength with this palm strike.

He knew well that even a lion must give its all to catch a rabbit.

As a first-layer Houtian expert, this palm strike imbued with True Qi, coupled with a surprise attack.

Let alone Lin Feng, a mere Body Tempering Triple Layer cultivator, even those Squad Leaders at Body Tempering Ninth Layer.

They would surely die!

However.

Things did not unfold as he had expected.

After being struck by the palm, Lin Feng retreated five steps before stabilizing his stance.

"Huh?!"

At this moment, Lu Gang's eyes widened.

His Black Fiend Palm had struck Lin Feng, but he hadn't died outright?!

How was this possible!

His heart churned like a stormy sea, and he stared at the scene with utter disbelief.

This was wrong. How could this person, a Body Tempering Triple Layer cultivator, withstand his palm strike?

Logically, this palm strike should have pierced straight through Lin Feng's body!

From a distance, Lin Feng let out a muffled groan, his eyes filled with killing intent as he looked at his attacker.

It wasn't easy for a Houtian Realm martial artist to kill him!

He already knew who the attacker was.

It was the Houtian Realm martial artist who held a grudge against him.

In the entire Demon Suppression Division, there was no one else but Lu Gang.

This man was ruthless and vindictive.

And now, he had waited at Lin Feng's residence, seeking an opportunity to assassinate him.

Fortunately, he had cultivated the third layer of the Iron Shirt!

Otherwise, even if he had cultivated to the Copper Skin or Iron Bone Realm, he would have died from his heart's core being shattered by Lu Gang's palm strike.

"What kind of protective gear does this brat have on to block my palm strike?"

A hint of anger flashed in Lu Gang's eyes. His full-powered palm strike had failed to kill Lin Feng.

There was something fishy about this!

He surmised that Lin Feng must be wearing some protective gear left by his father, which had blocked the strike at the critical moment.

However, could it block two palm strikes if it could block one?

Lu Gang remained silent and, in an instant, attacked again.

He unleashed another palm strike, aiming directly for Lin Feng's forehead, intending to crush his skull.

With a bang, another Black Fiend Palm strike was unleashed.

However, this palm strike still didn't inflict any damage on Lin Feng.

Lu Gang didn't stop, launching one attack after another at Lin Feng, each move ruthlessly aimed at Lin Feng's vital points, intending to kill him in a single blow.

Yet, after dozens of exchanges, a look of disbelief and uncertainty filled Lu Gang's eyes!

This was because dozens of palm strikes hadn't managed to kill Lin Feng!

Moreover, Lu Gang could sense that Lin Feng wasn't wearing any armor, relying purely on his physical body's defensive capabilities!

"Damn it!"

"I'm a Houtian Realm martial artist! This brat, though he's hidden his strength, is still only in the Body Tempering realm!"

"Why can he withstand so many of my palm strikes?!"

Muffled thuds continued to sound.

When Lu Gang struck Lin Feng, it felt like he was hitting a massive golden bell, unable to inflict any damage!

At this moment, the power of the third level of Iron Shirt was revealed.

Copper Skin, Iron Bone, and Steel Tendons granted Lin Feng an extremely terrifying defensive ability!

Even though Lu Gang was in the Houtian Realm and could channel True Qi, he still couldn't break through Lin Feng's defenses!

It was important to note that although Iron Shirt was a first-grade martial art, it was incredibly difficult to cultivate. Even Houtian Realm martial artists would need a considerable amount of time to master it.

Once mastered, its defensive power would be incredibly formidable.

Furthermore, Lin Feng's realm had advanced to Body Tempering Seventh Level, which, combined with the third level of Iron Shirt, further enhanced his defensive capabilities.

"Lu Gang, is this your strength? It seems... unimpressive."
