A person's courage and his actual combat experience were two different things. Many people usually boasted about their abilities, but when it came to actual combat, even if they were given a stick to hit, not to mention whether they could hit it or not, even if they clenched their teeth and swung the stick, there was an 80% chance that the stick would miss the mark.
It was just like a person who never fought with others. Once they started fighting, they would definitely turn into a shrew and roll on the ground. This was because they would realize that their fists would often not hit anything and would not be able to exert any strength. Once the other party got close to them and pressed against them, the lethality of their blows would be even worse than pulling their hair out.
Han Tianxing was such a person. His words were resolute but when it came down to it, he realised he could not control his body!
This was a normal reaction for most people because it was extremely difficult for someone who had never experienced actual combat or special training to overcome the fear that would cause their muscles to tense up immediately.
Han Tianxing trembled violently. He was both terrified and excited, as if he was dominated by two different emotions. One was his desire: he yearned to prove himself, to defeat his enemies, to gain Li Chengfeng and the rest's approval and respect!
But at the same time, he was controlled by his body's fear. His subconscious and body were controlling him to escape this place.
The scholar, who was hiding in the shadows, watched as the servant came closer and closer until he was near the bushes in front of him.
The servant looked left and right, his expression nervous and worried, both excited and terrified. After a long while, a low female voice came from the road not far away. "Brother Sancai?"
The servant named Sancai suddenly turned around and said in a trembling voice, "Cui 'er?"
A figure sprinted over, the two of them hugging each other tightly. Although it was a cold day, they kissed passionately.
No matter how good Li Chengfeng was at divination, he would never have guessed that there would be a young couple having a secret rendezvous on this road where there should not be any patrolling servants!
The young couple did not expect that less than two meters away from them, there was a living person struggling in pain. His eyes were fixed on the young couple, and the look in his eyes became more and more terrifying.
In the courtyard a few dozen meters away from them, a silent massacre was taking place.
Li Chengfeng raised his dagger and sliced through the cultivator's throat and windpipe. At the same time, he covered the man's mouth like he was an experienced fighter. After slicing through the man's throat, he quickly stabbed the man's heart.
With these two stabs, unless the man had a golden body to protect him, even the gods would not be able to save him.
On the other side, Ouyang Nan was even more ruthless. When he covered the man's mouth with one hand, he punched the man's temple with the other hand with the Phoenix Eye Fist, the bulging eye of his fist.
Ouyang Nan had been cultivating for decades. His cultivation was not considered high in the Spiritual Mountain Sect but he was still a human cauldron that had been training for decades. His punch, coupled with his sharp phoenix eyes, sent power into his brain, turning the Profound Life Sect cultivator's brain into a pile of mush. His body only twitched slightly before he died.
After the two of them killed their respective targets, they quickly looked at each other. Li Chengfeng gave Ouyang Nan a thumbs up, and Ouyang Nan gave Li Chengfeng a thumbs up as well. They both admired each other.
Ouyang Nan admired Li Chengfeng's steadiness, accuracy, and ruthlessness, while Li Chengfeng admired Ouyang Nan's powerful punches.
After the two of them took care of the cultivators in the house, Li Chengfeng started rummaging through their bags. After finding a few dozen silvers, six talismans and an unknown jade plate magical weapon, he found nothing else.
Li Chengfeng wrapped everything in a cloth bag and rolled it behind him. Ouyang Nan's gaze grew even weirder. This technique, this speed, this … he's a repeat offender!
When they left the house, they did not hear any commotion. This meant that Su You, Tianjun, Xiaobao and Blockhead were doing well.
Li Chengfeng gestured to Ouyang Nan and they crept into the house next door.
As usual, Li Chengfeng used a metal wire to lift the door bolt. At this moment, he suddenly heard a cough coming from inside the room. Shocked, Li Chengfeng immediately retracted the metal wire and gave Ouyang Nan a look. Both of them squatted outside the door and waited patiently.
After a while, light footsteps came from inside the house. The person opened the door and walked through the door, not noticing Li Chengfeng and Ouyang Nan who were hiding on both sides of the door. He walked straight to the front, undid his pants and began to urinate.
After some splashing sounds, Li Chengfeng and Ouyang Nan winked. Li Chengfeng gestured for Ouyang Nan to go inside and deal with the person inside while he dealt with the person outside.
Ouyang Nan understood and crept into the house. Li Chengfeng, on the other hand, was like a crouching leopard ready to pounce. He crept silently behind the Profound Life Sect cultivator who was peeing in the middle of the night. Then, he held his breath and suddenly pounced at the cultivator like lightning!
On the other side, the servant who had a rendezvous with the maidservant was hugging and nibbling on his sweetheart. If it were not for the cold weather, they would have had sex already.
The maidservant panted, her body limp as she fell into the servant's arms. She was clearly aroused as she whispered, "Brother Sancai, when can we really be together?"
San Cai greedily reached his hands into the woman's clothes and rubbed them. He panted heavily and nibbled as he said, "Soon, soon. In a few days, I'll be going out with Master to escort the goods. I'll definitely perform well on the road. When Master praises me, I'll ask him for your hand in marriage and let him betroth you to me!"
Cui 'er was delighted and pushed him away. "Really?"
Sancai raised one hand and stared at the woman in front of him. "Absolutely. If I'm lying, I'll be struck by lightning!"
Cui 'er quickly covered his mouth and stared at him lovingly. She whispered, "I believe you!
Brother Sancai, I have to go back, I have to find the Madam … "
Cui 'er dodged the man's greedy kisses when she suddenly turned to see two human-like figures pouncing on each other. She gasped and whispered, "What, what is that?!"
Sancai looked in the direction she was pointing and saw a figure pouncing out from the bushes. Even at night, he could see the figure's bloodshot eyes and twisted face under the dim moonlight.
