Cut it!
Lu Ming swung his sword nonchalantly and his sword light flashed like lightning.
Pfft!
The sword light pierced through Yuan Chong's wrist, severing his tendon completely.
“Ahhh!” Yuan Chong howled in pain as he retreated in panic.
'How did it end like this? It's only been about ten days. How did Lu Ming become so powerful?! How's it?!
'No, I refuse to accept it! I can't die. I must escape and report this matter to the Duanmu Family and their experts, so that they can kill Lu Ming for good! Then, I will get Feng Wu. I still have hope!'
Various thoughts came to Yuan Chong's mind.
“You have run out of chances,” Lu Ming said as his sword light pierced through Yuan Chong's heart.
That was all it took to end Yuan Chong's thought for good.
“Curse you, Lu Ming!” Yuan Chong roared regretfully. Lu Ming was so resolute that he did not give him a chance at all.
Almost instantly, Yuan Chong's life flowed out of him and Lu Ming soundlessly devouring his essence.
From the side, Feng Wu gawked towards Lu Ming. He's mesmerized. When Lu Ming disappeared about ten days ago, he thought something bad had happened to him. He searched for it for a few days but to no avail.
Lu Ming had surprisingly appeared just a moment before and displayed an enormous advantage over Yuan Chong and killed him in the process. It's too confusing.
Had Lu Ming suppressed his abilities before this?
That's just possible.
“Are you okay, Senior Brother Feng Wu?”
Lu Ming walked towards Feng Wu, grabbed him, and ran as fast as he could. The wind howled in their ears as the night wind continuously hit their faces.
Feng Wu opened his eyes and found Lu Ming speeding through the forest while hugging him.
He glanced at her and smiled. It was a genuine, pure, platonic smile with no ulterior motive.
“The smell of blood will attract the attention of wild animals. We have to move!”
Lu Ming ran through the forest.
In a short time, they found a quiet cave five kilometers away. Lu Ming lowered Feng Wu and covered his body with his coat. Then, he sat in the Lotus Position, closed his eyes, and meditated.
At daybreak, he managed to take out all the medicine from his system and recover from his paralysis.
Lu Ming opened his eyes.
“Why did you disappear, Lu Ming?” he asked without warning.
“Yuan Chong.” There and then, Lu Ming told Feng Wu everything that had happened the past ten days since Yuan Chong blocked his path. However, he remained silent about his blood meridians, of course.
“Yuan Chong is a monster! How could he join the Duanmu Family?” Feng Wu gritted his teeth.
“Alright, now that all your toxins are out, I will leave,” he said.
“Why don't we cooperate, Lu Ming? The experts from the various halls had already started to unite. From what I know, there is a super genius in the Duanmu Family named Duanmu Jue. He was the strongest beginner in the White Tiger Hall.
“He worked with many experts from the Duanmu Family and the White Tiger Hall to look for high-value metal pieces anywhere because he wanted to get first place. If you meet them alone, it will be very dangerous, so I think we should both work together. At least we can take care of each other,” he explained while holding him back.
“Duanmu Family? Do you know where they are?” Lu Ming's eyes shone as he asked.
“I know where they are, but what are you planning?”
“Of course to pick up high value metal pieces!”
A cold smile was engraved on Lu Ming's face as he added in his heart, ‘I'll take it as a small part of their interest payment.’
“You want to rob your Duan Family? That's too dangerous!" Feng Wu paled.
“I will not face them directly, so what to fear?” he answers.
“Alright, then we go together.” He swung his fist into the air, his ponytail fluttering as a glint of excitement appeared in his eyes. Feng Wu was also naughty.
“Haha, let's work together!” Lu Ming laughed.
"Wait!" Feng Wu shouted and rushed towards the bushes. In a short time, when he came out, he had changed clothes.
'Shelf ring!'
Lu Ming was slightly moved.
A storage ring is a ring made by a powerful writing maker that provides space for the wearer to store items. The price is very expensive and rare. Even a family as big as the Lu Family could not afford it.
There was more than what it looked like when it came to Feng Wu.
“Thank you for your coat!” He threw the coat back at Lu Ming and led the way as the couple made their way towards the deeper parts of Midnight Hills.
