Chapter 81: Chapter 81: A Visit to Breeze Mountain Villa
Translator: 549690339
Breeze Mountain Villa is dozens of miles away from Spirit Creek Village, and Lu Yun went there overnight.
Traveling swiftly, he finally arrived at the foot of Breeze Mountain Villa at midnight.
At this point, it was late at night, and the bright moon in the sky quietly hid in the dense, dark clouds, making the whole world even darker and more silent.
Lu Yun looked up at the Breeze Mountain Villa on the mountaintop, with dim lights flickering, his gaze calm.
“I really don’t like killing, but you forced it on me. Since it’s come to this, you can’t blame me.”
With a push of his feet on the stirrup, the pure-blooded black horse neighed and galloped up the mountain path.
When they reached halfway up the mountain, Lu Yun dismounted and silently made his way up to the top.
“Old Zhang, I’m a little sleepy. Take over here for a while.”
In front of the gate of Breeze Mountain Villa, two armed guards lazily leaned against a red lacquered pillar each.
“You’re sleepy? So am I. Why don’t you take over first?”
“Old Zhang, you’re too kind. You’ve already forgotten the secret between us so quickly. In that case, I might as well let more people know tomorrow.” The guard who had spoken earlier had a pair of dead fish eyes and laughed lewdly.
At these words, the guard called Old Zhang reluctantly said, “Alright, alright, you take a nap first, I’ll keep an eye on everything.”
“Hehe, that’s more like it!” The dead fish-eyed guard chuckled and sat on the ground, leaning his head against the red pillar and slowly fell asleep.
Old Zhang looked around, seeing no one, quietly took out a yellow book from his bosom, and began reading it under the dim light.
“I was at the exciting part last time, but it was ruined by that dead fish-eyed fellow. This time I’m going to read it to my heart’s content.”
In just a short while, the stimulating images in the book appeared before his eyes.
Dancing Dragon’s Tail, Regretful Dragon, Flying Dragon in the Sky, Dragon Fights in the Wild…
Each time he saw a new pose, Old Zhang’s pupils grew larger, and his expression became more excited.
While reading, blood unconsciously flowed from his nose.
“It seems I’ve had too many supplements lately.” Old Zhang casually wiped the blood from his nose, his gaze continuing to rest on the images in the book, engrossed.
“I never knew there were so many poses for fighting. I must find time to go to the city and practice with Little Peach.”
After reading half of it, Old Zhang stretched lazily, feeling full of energy, and even felt like he could perform the seven-in, seven-out if the conditions allowed.
“Hmm, was there wind just now?”
Old Zhang rubbed his eyes, looked left and right, but the rattan vines hanging from the wall didn’t move at all.
“There’s beauty in the book. 1 better continue reading.”
Then, his attention was once again immersed in the images of the book.
At this moment, the Villa Master’s study was brightly lit.
Mu Qingfeng stood with his hands behind his back, appreciating the calligraphy on the table.
Four vigorous and bold characters were written in ink on the calligraphy.contemporary romance
“Great goodness is like water.”
The ink was not yet dry, showing that it had been written not long ago.
Next to Mu Qingfeng stood a thin middle-aged man, with one hand on his abdomen and the other behind his back.
This man was the Great Manager of Breeze Mountain Villa, Mu Yingbo.
“The Villa Master’s calligraphy is not only at the Entry Level, strong and vigorous, but also deep and profound in its meaning, transcending the mundane, with far-reaching intentions.”
As Mu Yingbo spoke, the hand on his abdomen waved from time to time, but it always maintained a certain rhythm, which had something to do with the rhythm of his speech.
“Calligraphy requires regular practice, one cannot slack off, otherwise it will become rusty over time.” Mu Qingfeng shook his head and asked indifferently, “What about the matter Yun’er entrusted to us?”
Mu Yingbo’s eyes were cold and harsh, flashing ominously, “The First Leader of Sky Wind Stronghold, Liu Kai, has mobilized all the elite members of the stronghold. There should be results tomorrow.”
“A situation with no results means there will be changes, and changes lead to complications. Send someone to check it again.”
“Alright, first thing tomorrow morning, 1 will personally go to Spirit Creek Village.”
Mu Qingfeng picked up the teacup on the table, paused for a moment, and then nodded: “That works too, as for Liu Kai, you handle it.”
“Villa Master, rest assured, I have always been thorough in my work.”
Immediately afterward, Mu Yingbo took his leave.
Just after stepping out, he suddenly felt a chill.
Looking up, he saw a knife light coming towards him. The sound of thunder in the air was deafening as it approached dangerously close.
Confronted by this sudden attack, Mu Yingbo’s mind went into momentary paralysis.
By the time he reacted, he was absolutely horrified.
Although he was a True Qi Realm martial artist, he had no power to resist this attack.
He didn’t even have time to dodge. The blade went straight to his soul.
Mu Yingbo’s severed head flew through the door gap, landing at Mu Qingfeng’s feet, staining the tiger skin on the floor with blood.
The entire process had only taken an instant.
Looking at the severed head with its eyes wide open in terror, Mu Qingfeng felt a shiver run down his spine.
This man on the ground was no ordinary person or martial artist; he was a True Qi Realm powerhouse. In a place like Cloud Water County, a single stomp from him could make the entire county shake. Yet, he was killed in the blink of an eye.
This was an absurd level of strength, compelling the health-cultivating Breeze Mountain Villa Master to instantly lower his guard.
Mu Qingfeng subconsciously reached for his waist, only to find his weapon absent. Glancing around, he spotted a long sword hanging in the corner of the room. He stumbled towards it, drawing it as he went.
“May I ask which senior has come forward? Please show yourself!” Clutching the long sword tightly, he surveyed the area outside the door but saw nothing.
Mu Qingfeng raised his voice, “This humble person has always been content with his lot and does not quarrel or fight with others. I do not know where 1 have offended the senior to warrant an attack today.”
Still, there was no reply, nor any sight of anyone. Just the biting cold wind blowing, making the doors and windows rattle.
The more it went on like this, the more uneasy Mu Qingfeng became.
He had deliberately raised his voice just now to attract the attention of the guards on duty in the villa.
But now, there was no sign of any activity, and the result was clear.
Mu Qingfeng roared, “Who are you? Who are you, after all?”
Still no answer, driving Mu Qingfeng increasingly mad. Meanwhile, his True Qi burst forth, and his sword’s cold light flickered with fierce Sword Qi rampaging throughout the room.
“You skulking fiend, come out and face me in battle!”
This time, there was finally a response.
However, the reply was a slash that tore through the sky and cleaved the darkness of night.
Seeing this slash, Mu Qingfeng’s panic-stricken expression finally eased.
Unknown was the most terrifying thing, especially since the enemy had instantly slain Mu Yingbo, who was in the early stages of the True Qi Realm.
But now that he could see this slash, he wasn’t as afraid.
The opponent was strong, but not overwhelmingly so.
“As long as I can hold on for a few moves, escape this room, escape this courtyard, they are the ones who will die.”
Mu Qingfeng revealed a sinister smile. As the blade’s light was about to descend, he made his move, darting towards the window.
Just as he leaped out, he was hit by a burst of force, sending a chill down his spine.
Thud!
The sound of a long knife entering flesh rang out, followed by a powerful force striking his back.
“How.Js that…possible…”
These were the last words Mu Qingfeng uttered.
From beginning to end, he did not even see the face of the person who killed him..
