Chapter 20 Cleaning Up the House
Chapter 20 Cleaning Up the House
Bu Chen, Sha Tianjiang, and Lao Denuo stared intently at Yue Feng after he finished his drink. Yue Feng wiped his mouth and gave a cold laugh: "What are you waiting for? To see me die from the poison?"
Amidst the conversation, Yue Feng let out a clear whistle, kicked over the table and chairs, and drew his longsword. With a flash of light, the single-edged swords of Bu Chen and Sha Tianjiang snapped in two, their sheaths severed. The crowd was startled, but quickly reacted, surrounding Yue Feng with a dense forest of weapons.
Yue Feng, standing firmly in the center of the battle, unmoved, used the inner force of his Giant Spirit Golden Body to unleash the Sky-Piercing Sword to meet his enemies. Inside the inn, a dazzling display of sword light and blade shadows filled the air. A few breaths later, those besieging Yue Feng felt raindrops falling on their heads.
"Blood, it's blood! This kid is bleeding!"
The rain of blood intensified, yet Yue Feng fought with undiminished vigor, growing ever more courageous. The others realized something was amiss, discovering that the blood was entirely coming from their own side.
Just then, Bu Chen and Sha Tianjiang brought two single-edged swords and joined the battle. Everyone retreated to make way for the two, focusing only on preventing Yue Feng from escaping.
Bu Chen and Sha Tianjiang's renowned weapons were destroyed by Yue Feng in a single encounter, and their anger was palpable. Without uttering a word, the two launched a swift and relentless attack.
These two had traveled the martial world together for many years, their tacit understanding reaching a level of perfect harmony. Yue Feng appeared to be fighting two against one, but the danger he faced was far greater than when he had just dealt with the combined attack of several people.
Yue Feng used the Long Sky Sword technique against Bu Chen and Sha Tianjiang's swordsmanship. Although he had the upper hand in terms of moves, he gradually fell into a disadvantageous position. Laudenuo shouted from the side, "This kid has been poisoned. Even if his internal strength is profound, he won't last long without the poison taking effect immediately. You two, proceed with caution!"
Yue Feng turned his head and glanced at Laudenuo indifferently. Laudenuo, seeing that Yue Feng dared to look away even in the midst of his busy schedule, felt a strange chill run down his spine. But assuming Yue Feng was at his limit, he couldn't help but sneer:
"What are you looking at? You brat, I've been an undercover agent in the Huashan Sect for so many years, and you're the only one who's ever been wary of me. I won't be satisfied until I get rid of you! Brother Bu, Brother Sha, if I kill this brat today, I will definitely report a great achievement to the Left Sect Leader!"
Bu Chen was determined to win, and upon hearing this, he was about to say something when he suddenly saw Yue Feng raise his hand, as if to push open a half-closed door, and push it towards him.
He sneered inwardly, thinking, "I may be a master swordsman, but that doesn't mean I'm incapable of palm techniques. This kid's palm strikes are so weak, yet he dares to show off his sword skills in front of Guan Yu. It's laughable."
Bu Chen's right hand continued its sword thrust, while his left hand met the attack with a sudden movement. Just as it was about to make contact with Yue Feng's palm, Sha Tianjiang shouted, "No! That's the Shaolin Temple's Demon-Subduing Palm!"
Bu Chen hurriedly changed his move, but it was too late. The moment Yue Feng's palm touched Bu Chen's palm, a gentle force traveled up the meridians of Bu Chen's arm.
Bu Chen felt half of his body go numb, his heart pounding with fear, and he hurriedly retreated. But unexpectedly, this left only Sha Tianjiang facing Yue Feng's deadly sword.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Yue Feng launched a counterattack. He unleashed the Sky-Piercing Sword in conjunction with the Cloud Platform Flight technique, which seemed to multiply into thousands, dazzling the eye.
While desperately resisting, Sha Tianjiang shouted for help from the crowd. At this critical moment, Lao Denuo and his disciples could no longer stand idly by, but how could they stop Yue Feng? In just a few exchanges, Sha Tianjiang's single-edged sword was once again cut in half by Yue Feng's longsword.
Sha Tianjiang used his lightness skill to escape with all his might. Bu Chen, who had regained some of his mobility, provided support from the side.
Ignoring Bu Chen's sword strikes, Yue Feng instantly appeared behind Sha Tianjiang, his longsword piercing through Sha Tianjiang's back and emerging from his front. At the same time, Bu Chen's single-edged sword struck Sha Tianjiang's shoulder.
Amid the cheers of the crowd, Bu Chen felt a violent jolt in his wrist, and the single-edged sword almost slipped from his grasp. In contrast, Yue Feng's shoulder was completely unharmed, except for a long gash in his clothes.
Bu Chen was stunned, as if he had witnessed the most unbelievable thing in the world. Yue Feng turned his hand and pressed his palm against Bu Chen's forehead.
The tavern suddenly fell silent. Everyone watched as Bu Chen slowly sat down on the stool next to him, his upper body gradually slumping down onto the table in front of him, and then he remained motionless.
Yue Feng glanced at the tear in his clothes on his shoulder and clicked his tongue. The sound was deafening, like thunder, to everyone. The disciples shouted and rushed out of the hotel. Ignoring them, Yue Feng easily lifted Lao Denuo up in front of him.
Laudenuo looked old and frail, on the verge of death, yet surprisingly defiant, stubbornly declaring, "Fine, fine, Yue Feng, I underestimated you. I caused the Left Sect Leader to lose two of his top masters, a sin I cannot atone for. If you have the guts, then kill me with one sword!"
Yue Feng sat down in front of Laudenuo, placed his longsword across his lap, and said with a smile, "Second Senior Brother, you don't think I'll let you go just because you said all that, do you?"
Laudenuo's expression froze, and he wanted to say something, but Yue Feng swung his longsword horizontally, and Laudenuo spun around, his old head falling to the ground with a thud.
"White clouds emerge from the mountain peaks, you..."
After uttering those last few words, Laudenau's mind froze. The entire hotel seemed to freeze as well, falling into complete silence.

Yue Feng felt a pang of fatigue. After many twists and turns, he had finally achieved one of his goals in coming all the way to Fujian—to kill Lao Denuo. Although doing so would inevitably expose his true strength to Zuo Lengchan, it didn't matter. By the time Zuo Lengchan found out, he would be quite old.
He opened the panel and saw that he still had 120 access points left, which improved his mood slightly. After hesitating for a moment between the Giant Spirit Golden Body and the Demon-Subduing Palm, Yue Feng finally spent 110 access points to upgrade the Giant Spirit Golden Body to the Great Perfection.
No matter when or where, the Giant Spirit Golden Body never disappointed him!
After completing his task, Yue Feng left the hotel. On his way back to the Immortal Abode, he considered the current situation in its entirety.
Bu Chen, Sha Tianjiang, and others were likely the main force of the Songshan Sect in Fuzhou. With their demise along with Lao Denuo, the Songshan Sect shouldn't be able to cause any more trouble in Fuzhou. Therefore, he only needs to focus on dealing with the Qingcheng Sect. Besides that, there are also matters concerning the Swallow Gate and the Six Doors…
As Yue Feng walked and pondered, he unknowingly arrived at the entrance of the inn. There stood a handsome young man who greeted him from afar.
"Master, please accept me as your disciple! Pingzhi is willing to serve you faithfully and follow you to the death!"
Yue Feng stared blankly at Lin Pingzhi, who wore a devout expression, and after a long pause, finally managed to stammer, "Who are you?"
