One day a year later, Lu Kun was sitting in a private room on the third floor of Fuyuan Restaurant, listening to Wang Xiaopang's eloquent talk.
Over the past year, Lu Kun's martial arts has improved rapidly. The first level of the Vajra Art is close to completion, and his strength has greatly increased, making the power of the Yuan Explosion Fist even more amazing.
The absorption of the red seal not only slowly increased Lu Kun's physical strength, but his eyes also changed. Now his eyesight is far beyond that of ordinary people, and the night is like day in his eyes.
Wang Xiaopang chattered, shaking his head and said: "Lingyue City in the north is the nearest medium-sized city to us. The power in charge of Lingyue City is the Five Poison Sect. The strength of the Five Poison Sect has increased greatly in recent years. There are eight first-class masters in the sect. The leader and the great elder are also top-notch masters."
"Ever since the Great Elder's accident, our Iron Fist Sect has only one super-class master and three first-class masters. The inner disciples and the outer disciples are pretty much the same."
"Since a year ago, some of our Iron Fist Sect's strongholds in Lingyue City have been wiped out by the Five Poison Sect one by one. Several inner sect disciples stationed there were killed, and several towns between Huayuan City and Lingyue City also experienced massacres. A conflict between two factions.”
When Lu Kun heard this, he frowned and interrupted: "If the Five Poison Sect dares to attack us, aren't they afraid of our Supreme Elder?"
Wang Xiaopang frowned and said, "Recently there have been rumors that our Supreme Elder will not live long. The Five Poison Sect is trying to test our reaction."
"The leader's order for the year is to fight against the Five Poison Sect with all his strength. Now several elders and most of the disciples have been sent out. I was lucky enough to survive a fight."
Lu Kun thought to himself: "No wonder some gangsters dared to rob Iron Fist Gate's goods in the towns behind, just to take advantage of our lack of manpower."
After a year of training, Lu Kun was also sent out to perform tasks.
At this time, an ordinary-looking young man came up, clasped his fists at Lu Kun and said, "Junior brother Lu, you are fine. It turns out that the master arranged for you. Wang Xiaopang, please step aside first. Junior brother Lu and I have a relationship." Let’s talk about important things.”
The person who came was none other than Guo Botao. When Wang Xiaopang saw Guo Botao, he looked somewhat respectful, and immediately retreated after hearing this.
Lu Kun saw Guo Botao and said straight to the point: "I wonder if senior brother knows anything about this Black Wind Village? The leader asked me to follow senior brother Guo's arrangements."
Senior Brother Guo then talked about the Black Wind Stronghold: "This Black Wind Stronghold was just a low-level force a few years ago. There were only a few third-rate masters. How could they dare to rob our goods?"
"But I don't know what happened recently. My strength has increased greatly. There is at least one second-rate master, and there should be about a dozen third-rate masters. Some time ago, two goods were robbed by them. Only one of our outer disciples escaped. In the end, we still Died of serious injuries.”
"The leader suspected that Heifeng Village might be colluding with the Five Poison Sect, so he sent us two to lurk in the team secretly to intercept and kill the robbers who came to rob. Finally, he asked for the location of Heifeng Village and uprooted them."
At this time, Guo Botao said with a smile: "I heard from the leader that junior brother, you are very powerful now, so this mission should be easier."
Lu Kun shook his head and said: "How can my strength be compared with that of my senior brothers? For this mission, I will obey all my senior brothers' orders."
"Junior brother, there is no need to be modest. These two days are the days when our Iron Fist Sect will go to the towns below to collect medicinal materials. There will be a total of five convoys going to five towns."
Then Guo Botao talked about the plan: "We are pretending to be ordinary guards in a team. There are three outer disciples in this team and about ten guards. The value of the team's goods is medium. In the eyes of the robbers, they are the least likely to ambush. Their team.”
"Junior brother, let's eat first and then set off after eating!"
"Yes, senior brother."
...
Luxi Town is a large town in the south of Huayuan City. It is close to the Luyang Mountains and is rich in a kind of medicine called hemp. Every year, the Iron Fist Sect comes here to collect a large amount of hemp, transport it to Huayuan City, and sell it. To businesses everywhere.
On this day, Lu Kun and Guo Botao's team had collected the goods here and headed back to Huayuan City.
It would take almost four days for the convoy to return. Lu Kun and the others speculated that the Black Wind Village would start on the second night.
However, on the first night, Lu Kun relied on his night vision ability to find two people following them furtively in the darkness in the distance, observing the strength of their team.
On the second night, shortly after their team set up camp, Lu Kun saw a group of people lurking not far away. Sure enough, he picked their team. Lu Kun casually walked up to Guo Botao and waved to him. With a look, Guo Botao nodded slightly.
There was a group of people hiding in the grass not too far away from Lu Kun's motorcade, about twenty people.
"Brother, this team is quite strong, but the goods are not valuable. Why should we rob them?" The person who spoke in a low voice was a wretched man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks.
A big man with broad arms and a round waist and a beard cursed in a low voice: "You idiot, what do you know? There must be experts hiding in the valuable team. Our success in the past few times was entirely because the Iron Fist Sect was not prepared."
"And I have already sent people to observe. The team carrying valuable goods has the same force as before. The Iron Fist Sect knew that we might rob the goods, but who was so stupid that we didn't add more people, so it must be a trap. Do you really think I am the third king? Isn’t it easy for Ba to use his brain?”
"But boss, what if there is an ambush in this convoy?"
"Now most of the inner disciples are in towns close to Lingyue City. There are not enough manpower. How can they be wasted on such a worthless team!"
"Big brother is indeed a big brother, he is really smart!" The wretched man flattered him wildly.
The bearded man said with some pride: "Hey, we have made a lot of money in the first two trips. Although it is less this time, the most important thing is safety. When the full-scale war breaks out between the Iron Fist Sect and the Five Poison Sect, this place is not ours. The world of Fengzhai.”
The bearded man then changed his tone and said fiercely: "In a moment, your boss, I will deal with those outer disciples. You guys quickly kill all the guards. You must not let any of them escape this time. Do you understand?"
A group of robbers shook the knives in their hands to show their knowledge. Everyone was breathing heavily, their eyes were red, and they were extremely excited.
"Okay, brothers, come on!" Wang Sanba roared, holding a big knife and leading the group of people to rush out.
"The robbers are coming!" There was such a big movement, and the guard on guard immediately shouted.
The three outer disciples quickly rushed out of the tent. When they saw Wang Sanba rushing toward them, they took out their weapons and roared, and started fighting with Wang Sanba.
This Wang Sanba is indeed a second-rate master. He can dance with a broadsword in all directions, and his internal strength is quite fierce. In just ten moves, the three outer disciples were unable to hold on.
Suddenly, a long knife attacked Wang Sanba silently from behind. The momentum on the tip of the knife shocked Wang Sanba, and he immediately turned around and executed this move.
"It's Senior Brother Guo!"
"Senior Brother Guo's Thunder Blade Technique!"
It was Guo Botao who made the move, and he single-handedly took down Wang Sanba as soon as he made the move. Guo Botao was also one of the best masters among the inner disciples. He completely overwhelmed Wang Sanba in terms of moves and strength, even if Wang Sanba's sword struck him. The body also felt like it was being cut on iron armor, unable to break through the defense.
Guo Botao still had enough energy left to issue instructions to the three outer disciples: "You three go deal with the others. Don't let a robber go. I, Guo, will deal with this person."
Wang Sanba was extremely angry when he heard this. Unfortunately, under the pressure of Guo Botao, he couldn't even curse.
When the three outer disciples turned to deal with the other robbers, they saw a burly figure shuttling among the robbers, hitting the heart of the enemy with every punch. The robber who was hit fell silently, punching one after another. Fate, extremely fierce.
He calmly dodged all the robbers' attacks on Lu Kun. Seeing his companions being killed so easily, the other robbers could no longer suppress the fear in their hearts and began to flee.
The three outer disciples woke up from a dream and started chasing them. Lu Kun rushed towards the first few people who escaped in the distance. In the dark night, no one could hide from Lu Kun's eyes. The robbers could only hear the screams. But he couldn't see his opponent, and his heart was trembling.
When Wang Sanba heard his younger brother's screams, he was frightened. He was slightly distracted when Guo Botao knocked off his sword and captured him alive. The other robbers who escaped were also caught up by Lu Kun and several outer disciples one by one. In the end, only the remaining robbers remained. The three tyrants and five robbers.
