In the silent of the night, the young martial artists looked at each other, hesitating whether if they should be the one who take action first. The young martial artists can only hear the beating of their young hearts and the mating songs sung by the male crickets at night.
The man in black pointed at Zhou Guotin, "Where is he?"
Zhou Guotin spit out a mouthful of blood and looked at the man in black coldly, "He is dead. He has been dead for several months. "
The man in black said, "I don't believe you."
The man in black stabbed forward with a sword, and suddenly a butterfly sword flew directly towards him. The man in black blocked the butterfly sword, but another butterfly sword swung from his left. The man in black retreated abruptly, lest he would be cut by the butterfly sword, Rao Zhengsheng kicked the man in black. The man in black staggered back a few steps.
At this moment, Dong Lanying swung her sword from behind the man in black. The man in black quickly bent down and hit Dong Lanying's right rib, causing her to back away.
The man in black pointed his sword at Dong Lanying and said, "You, stay." He turned around and looked at Dong Lanying coldly. "I don't need to repeat myself." The man in black rushed towards Rao Zhengsheng, and the two began to fight.
Li Fu stood aside and said, "Young man in black… it seems we have common enemies, I will help you get rid of some." He rushed towards Cao Wenyan and Cao Yanmei.
While the others were fighting, Yuan Xiurong looked at Yongzheng's wound. She drew out the small dagger and said, "The wound is not bad, no important arteries have been touched. As long as there is no infection, it will be cured in two or three days." She quickly left to check on Zhou Guotin.
Xue Horan took out his handkerchief, folded it in half, and put it on Yongzheng's wound. He said, "Press hard, it will stop the bleeding." He turned around and watched Rao Zhengsheng fight the man in black.
The man in black jumped up and did a triple kicks forward aiming directly on Rao Zhengsheng's chest. Rao Zhengsheng quickly blocked the man in black's three kicks and retreated towards the injured Zhou Guotin, but the attack of the man in black was even more fierce. His every move is aimed for Rao Zhengsheng's life.
Dong Lanying drew out her sword out of its sheath and attacked the man in black from behind. The man in black turned back and hit Dong Lanying's abdomen. He stood in front of Dong Lanying and Rao Zhengsheng. He looked at Dong Lanying and said, "I tell you to stop."
Dong Lanying said, "I will not allow you to hurt my da shixiong."
The man in black said again, "If you came at me again, I will attack you."
Dong Lanying raised her sword and attacked the man in black with Rao Zhengsheng. Dong Lanying swung her sword at the man in black. The man in black caught Dong Lanying's right hand, and slammed her on her abdomen with a strong punch, causing her to fall on the broken table where the bodies of Su Lie Jie and Yen Shoi Ming were dropped.
Xue Horan drew out his sword, grabbed Rao Zhengsheng's sword from the ground, and went straight to the man in black. Xue Horan quickly threw Rao Zhengsheng's sword to Rao Zhengsheng, and Rao Zhengsheng put the butterfly swords behind his belt.
Xue Horan attacked from the right, Rao Zhengsheng attacked from the left, and the two attacked the man in black from all directions alternately. It is difficult for the man in black to attack Rao Zhengsheng and Xue Horan. All he can do is protect himself from getting stab.
Rao Zheng violently kicked the man in black, and then Xue Horan grabbed his left hand. He threw Xue Horan at the man in black. Xue Horan kicked the man in black. The man in black blocked their powerful foot works and slid back in the direction of the kitchen. The man in black then loosened a threaded needle flying directly at Xue Horan.
Rao Zhengsheng quickly rushed to Xue Huoran and used his sword to wind the needle and thread on the sword. Then his sword drew forward sharply, but the man in black stabilized his position.
Cao Wenyan rushed in front of Rao Zhengsheng and hit Rao Zhengsheng's right side with a fierce blow.
Xue Horan quickly moved his body from Rao Zhengsheng's left to his right, and hugged Rao Zhengsheng. Cao Wenyan's fist directly hit Xue Horan's left back, both Xue Horan and Rao Zhengsheng flew twenty yards away.
Cao Wenyan stabbed Rao Zhengsheng and Xue Horan, but a sword struck, causing his sword to change direction. Cao Wenyan hit the sword with his sword, and the sword flew back to the master's scabbard.
Cao Wenyan said coldly, "Yong Taihua."
Yong Taihua stepped forward and said, "Cao gongzi, I apologize, but there is no misunderstanding that cannot be resolved."
Following Yong Taihua were Yong Caixia, the five members of Sword village, Yan Zhanjin, Chen Dandan, Kuo Wenqian, Liu Hung, and three disciples of Jinfeng Sector.
The man in black swung three daggers at Cao Wenyan, and he flew away quickly.
Li Fu quickly grabbed onto Cao Yanmei, but Yongzheng rushed forward and hit Li Fu's hands with his feet. He hit Li Fu's right shoulder and Li Fu crashing onto the clotheslines. Li Fu quickly shot a small dagger at Cao Yanmei, and then quickly escaped into the night.
When Li Fu's dagger flew towards Cao Yanmei, Yongzheng dashed forward, pulled Cao Yanmei back, and slapped the dagger from Cao Yanmei's face. His left hand was cut.
Li Fu quickly followed the man in black into the back mountain. He thought he saw the man in black, but as soon as he walked into the clearing, the man in black was gone.
Li Fu frowned, "Damn... that bastard shouldn't be too far away." Immediately, the tip of a sword pointed on the right side of Li Fu's neck, and Li Fu's face turned pale.
The man in black asked, "Why are you following me?"
Li Fu, "I admire you. Is this a good enough reason?"
The man in black then said, "Where is your position on the steps?"
Li Fu smiled and shook his head slowly, "Second." The man in black slowly retracted his sword, and Li Fu turned to face the man in black. "You ask me as if you know who I am?"
The man in black looked at Li Fu and said, "Li Fu, a member of Seventy-two Islands, the second leader of Seventy-two Islands."
Li Fu asked, "Then tell me, where is your position on the steps?"
The man in black glanced at Li Fu and tossed a small pendant with the word "one" written on the sapphire jade.
Li Fu looked at the sapphire jade and muttered to himself, "One..." Looking at the man in black. "Number one." Li Fu knelt down on both knees, holding the sapphire jade in both hands, looking down on the ground. "Li Fu, second leader of Seventy-two Islands. I'm sorry I didn't recognize you."
The man in black took the sapphire jade from Li Fu. He went down and grabbed Li Fu's arms.
Li Fu said, "Chief, please punish for failing to recognize you." He smiled. "Where have you been all these years?"
The man in black said, "I..." He pierced his sword into Li Fu's abdomen.
Li Fu snorted in pain, and grabbed the man's mask. Li Fu coughed up blood. Seeing the man's face, he was stunned. He pointed to the man in black, "Is you…how could you be the chief of the Seventy-two islands? Since you are…"
The man in black pierced the sword deeper into Li Fu's abdomen and twisted the sword into Li Fu's body. Li Fu fell to his knees. The man in black fixed his mask and kicked Li Fu's chest. Li Fu fell to the ground and died.
The man in black said, "There are many things that stupid people like you will never understand. At least your death serve a purpose." The man in black walked into the night.
