Chapter 168 Storm

One man and one dog left the agate restricted area and returned to the county city smoothly.

As soon as he arrived at Yixiangzhai, Hongye came over in a hurry.

"Master, there was an urgent task two days ago..."

Fang Zhixing's face changed. He had been away for five or six days this time and obviously missed something.

He hurriedly asked, "What task?"

Hongye handed over the roll of paper.

"Tomorrow, attack Hong Xiangpeng, the young master of Hongyumen, at Qingsong Inn, Baili, north of the city. You can injure or kill him."

Fang Zhixing read it and pondered, "This is a task that should have been completed yesterday."

Hongye replied, "I sent Ma Zhengming, but he hasn't come back to report yet."

Fang Zhixing asked, "Do you know what strength this Hong Xiangpeng is?"

Hongye replied, "I have investigated. Hong Xiangpeng once showed the power of the second bird realm in front of people. Now he may be the third bird realm or even higher."

Fang Zhixing frowned, feeling that Ma Zhengming might mess up this task.

He wondered, "What's the situation with this Hongyu Sect?"

Hongye replied, "Hongyu Sect is a force cultivated by the small clan Shen family, similar to Tieshanmen and Heihumen."

At this point, she added, "I also heard that Hong Xiangpeng's purpose of coming to the county city this time is probably to participate in the Qinghe Martial Arts Conference."

Fang Zhixing counted with his fingers and suddenly realized, "There are still ten days before the Qinghe Martial Arts Conference! The eldest son and the eldest lady don't seem to want Hong Xiangpeng to participate in the Qinghe Martial Arts Conference."

He asked curiously, "What is the relationship between the small clan Shen family and the Luo family and the Dong family?"

Hongye shook her head and spread her hands, saying, "I don't know either. Logically, the eight major clans should be of the same blood."

Fang Zhixing laughed dumbly. There is no such thing as a peaceful life.

The clans are fighting each other, which is probably the norm.

"The Shen family is in a hostile relationship."

Fang Zhixing wrote it down.

Although he missed this mission, he was not panicked at all.

Because the mission requires "injury or killing".

With Ma Zhengming's strength, it would be extremely difficult to kill Hong Xiangpeng, but it might not be that difficult to injure Hong Xiangpeng.

It was dark in a blink of an eye.

Ma Zhengming dragged his injured body and rode back on horseback.

He sat down with a pale face and blood on his left shoulder.

Fang Zhixing saw this and winked at Hongye.

Hongye quickly ordered the servant to call a doctor, and then brought the best wound medicine to do a simple hemostasis and bandage for Ma Zhengming.

Fang Zhixing then asked, "How is it?"

"I have done my job!"

Ma Zhengming panted heavily, nodded with difficulty and smiled, "That Hong Xiangpeng is indeed the young master of Hongyumen, he is quite powerful, I fought him to a draw, he stabbed me with a sword, and I punched him back.

Hmph, unless he has a peerless magic medicine, don't even think about participating in the Qinghe Martial Arts Conference again."

Fang Zhixing secretly breathed a sigh of relief and nodded, "Thank you for your hard work, all the credit for this order is yours."

Ma Zhengming said, "Thank you for your kindness, Master."

Soon, the doctor came to the door, and Ma Zhengming went back to the room for treatment.

Fang Zhixing turned and entered the secret room, came to the black tortoise bookshelf, and picked up the "Pangolin Scale Cloth Skill".

He still has some potential left in his defense, which can be further explored.

Soon, the system light flashed, and new conditions were refreshed.

[Pangolin Scale Cloth Skill·Full Level Conditions:

1. Use ‘Lingli Armor’ to apply all over the body once (unfinished)]

The conditions have been reduced from 2 to 1.

The question is, what is Lingli Armor?

The night passed quickly.

Flutter~

The next morning, when Fang Zhixing was having breakfast, a carrier pigeon suddenly flew over.

“Before noon, rush to the tea stall 130 miles north of the city and wait for the brother and sister of Silverfish Fort, Hu Yizi and Hu Qianling. You can injure or kill them.”

Fang Zhixing couldn’t help but narrow his eyes slightly.

This task is roughly the same as the previous one.

“Hongye, which family does Silverfish Fort belong to?” he asked with a frown.

Hongye replied: “The small family, the Ruan family.”

Fang Zhixing couldn’t help but be surprised. Is the Ruan family also a hostile force?

He quickly finished his meal and left Yixiangzhai through the secret passage.

When he came out, he had already performed a bone-shrinking disguise to become another look.

Fang Zhixing rode out of the city with Xigou and headed north.

"Wang woo woo~"

The man and the dog galloped along the official road, and suddenly a wolf howled in the distance.

After hearing it, Xigou's ears suddenly stood up, and then, as if his blood was awakened, he couldn't help but raise his head and barked.

"What are you doing?" Fang Zhixing shouted.

Xigou suddenly woke up and said embarrassedly: "Ah, I can't help it..."

Fang Zhixing looked up and saw two black spots running towards him.

The two black spots quickly grew larger in his field of vision.

Not long after, Fang Zhixing saw them clearly. They were two giant wolves, and their bodies were taller than war horses.

"Wolf cavalry!!"

Fang Zhixing's mind moved, and he hurriedly pulled the reins and moved to the side of the road.

The next moment, two giant wolves howled and ran.

The two men riding on the wolf's back were burly and tall, both reaching two meters in height. They were fully armed, wearing bright armor, helmets with veils on their heads, a large sword on their backs, and a long spear in their hands.

The two cavalrymen galloped past without looking around, not paying any attention to Fang Zhixing and Xigou on the side of the road.

But the two giant wolves seemed to smell something and couldn't help turning their heads to look at the thin dog.

Fortunately, the cavalry had good control over the giant wolves. With a roar, the two giant wolves flew away.

Fang Zhixing looked at the thin dog coldly and said contemptuously: "Will you bark when you hear a dog barking?"

The thin dog was extremely embarrassed, but he said unconvincedly: "Those are giant wolves. Their barks are magical and stimulate my blood. Do you understand?"

Fang Zhixing rolled his eyes and didn't chat with the thin dog anymore. He continued on his way.

The two of them kept on running and ran 130 miles at the fastest speed.

A three-way intersection suddenly appeared in front of them, and a tea stall was built on the side of the road.

Passers-by often stopped here, drank a bowl of tea, and rested their feet before walking.

Fang Zhixing tied up the horse, walked into the tea stall, sat at the table, ordered a pot of tea, and drank it slowly.

Xigou looked at the pedestrians coming and going, wondering: "You don't know the brother and sister of Silverfish Fort, what if you miss them?"

Fang Zhixing was silent for a moment, and replied: "The mission instructions on the scroll should have been carefully considered. The question you raised must have been considered by others."

Xigou snorted and replied: "No one is watching you now. If the mission fails, you can use this as an excuse."

Fang Zhixing didn't think so. It was noon soon.

A carriage drove from a fork in the road.

A flag was prominently planted on the top of the carriage, and a striking silverfish was painted on the red base.

"Silverfish Fort!"

Xigou suddenly stood up and said speechlessly: "Good fellow, it turns out that these people go out with their own flags."

Fang Zhixing replied: "They are powerful. As long as they hang a flag, not only will no one dare to rob them along the way, but it will also be very convenient."

Xigou thought about it.

The powerful hang flags when they go out, and they are very face-saving no matter where they go.

While they were communicating, the carriage stopped in front of the tea stall.

Fang Zhixing observed that there were eight attendants in front and behind the carriage, all riding horses.

There was one driver.

The next moment, a young man and woman walked out of the carriage. The man was handsome and the woman was pretty.

They walked into the tea stall and sat at two tables to drink tea and rest.

Seeing this, Fang Zhixing got up and left the tea stall and walked into the woods nearby.

Among the eight attendants was an old man with gray beard. He had been paying attention to his surroundings and noticed Fang Zhixing.

"Why did that man go to the woods instead of walking?" The old man frowned and muttered.

A young man next to him responded, "Master, maybe that person just wants to relieve himself in the woods."

Another middle-aged attendant smiled and said, "Old Wang, just drink your tea. Although our Silverfish Fort is not the top-notch force in the martial arts world, not everyone dares to provoke us. Has anything happened along the way?"

The old man pondered and said, "It's better to be safe than sorry. The closer you are to the county town, the more careful you should be."

The middle-aged attendant smiled bitterly and said, "Oh, you are too careful. You made me nervous all the way."

Everyone smiled bitterly when they heard this.

"Old Wang, it's okay."

At this time, Hu Yizi turned his head and said with a smile, "Even if someone wants to make trouble with Silverfish Fort, can't we handle it with so many of us?"

Just as Old Wang was about to speak, there was a loud sound of breaking through the air.

Swoosh~

A cold arrow suddenly attacked and shot Hu Yizi's back and shoulder.

Hu Yizi fell forward, his expression changed drastically.

But the next moment, he reached out and grabbed the arrow and pulled it out.

There was only a little blood on the arrowhead.

"Fortunately, I wore armor."

Hu Yizi was still frightened. He turned over the table and pulled his sister Hu Xiling to hide behind the table.

"Be careful of sneak attacks!"

All the followers changed color. After a short moment of daze, they quickly took action.

Four of the followers ran to the horses, each took a shield, and returned to the front and back of Hu Yizi and his sister.

"Which coward dared to sneak attack the young master of Silver Fish Castle? Get out!"

The old man looked around and roared at the top of his voice.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh~

In response to him, a rain of arrows came from all directions.

"Ah~"

In a flash, five people were shot, one of whom was still holding a shield and was shot in the foot.

Some of the five people were shot through the shoulder, and some were shot through the thigh, and fell to the ground.

"Wang Lao!"

Hu Yizi's face changed in horror, and he watched the old man being shot in the calf by an arrow, and blood was flowing.

Hu Qianling said angrily: "Cowardly rat, can you only attack by surprise? If you have the guts, come out!"

Before she finished speaking, the second round of arrow rain flew over.

The sharp arrows were wrapped in amazing penetrating power, and shot at incredible angles, almost covering all directions without dead angles.

"Ah~"

The screams started again, and the remaining three followers were also shot and fell to the ground.

Hu Yizi and Hu Qianling were shocked and hurriedly grabbed the shield to protect themselves.

The brother and sister stood back to back as if they were facing a great enemy.

At this time, a vague voice came from nowhere.

"Friends of Silverfish Castle, as long as you go home immediately, we will not embarrass you."

This sentence echoed in their ears, and Hu Yizi and Hu Qianling looked at each other, hesitant and uncertain.

After a while, Hu Yizi shouted solemnly: "We are here on orders, sorry we cannot obey."

The next moment!

A figure came out of the woods, holding a bow and arrow.

Everyone turned to look and recognized at a glance that the person was the one who suddenly got up and entered the woods just now.

Hu Yizhi looked left and right and choked: "Are you the only one?"

Fang Zhixing put down his bow and arrow, stepped forward step by step, and said calmly: "Am I not enough by myself?"

Hu Yizhi gritted his teeth, his expression instantly distorted, he threw away his shield, held his sword, and said in a deep voice: "Give me your name, I, Hu Yizhi, will not kill unknown people with my sword."

Fang Zhixing raised the corners of his lips and said jokingly: "My name happens to be Wuming."

Hu Yizhi was startled at first, then with a clang sound, he unsheathed his sword and rushed out.

Hu Qiling also unsheathed her sword almost at the same time, following suit.

The brother and sister used silver swords, which glittered in the sunlight, dazzling people's eyes and disturbing their vision.

Not only that, their swordsmanship contains a hint of mystery, and they seem to be able to cooperate with each other.

"Your swordsmanship is elegant, could it be that you are from the Shadow Leopard type?" Fang Zhixing asked with interest.

Hu Yizhi suddenly became even more angry and shouted: "Haven't you heard of the "Young Fish Sword Technique" passed down from my ancestors in Silver Fish Castle?"

Fang Zhixing said calmly: "I have never heard of it."

"court death!"

Hu Yizhi and Hu Qiling rushed towards each other from left to right, like two swimming fish entangled with each other, constantly changing positions, and the two shining silver swords gave people an unpredictable sense of oppression.

Fang Zhixing narrowed his eyes slightly.

He was certain that both the Hu brothers and sisters had strengthened their agility, and since they were wearing armor, they most likely had not strengthened their defense.

Then their strength is below the three-animal realm.

"Well, let's test how strong my defense is."

Fang Zhixing's muscles all over his body swelled, and black lines suddenly appeared on his skin, looking like pieces of turtle shell.

Then he walked forward swaggeringly.

"prick!"

Hu Yizhi speeded up, and the silver sword, wrapped in a cold light, stabbed straight into Fang Zhixing's heart.

When~

The silver sword suddenly bent!

Immediately afterwards, Hu Xiling also stabbed Fang Zhixing in the stomach with a sword.

Likewise, her sword was bent.

The brothers and sisters felt their hearts skip a beat, and their whole bodies instantly froze, dumbfounded.

Fang Zhixing looked at Hu Yizhi first and commented: "You have strengthened your agility, strength and resilience. Your strength has reached 85,000 kilograms, which is not bad."

He turned to Hu Qiling again, "You only strengthened your agility and toughness. It's too weak. You won't feel anything when you stab me."

Gulu~

The brother and sister swallowed wildly, their backs soaked with cold sweat.

"I don't want to hurt anyone, please go back." Fang Zhixing ordered calmly.

The brother and sister took back the silver sword in unison, took three steps back, bowed their heads and saluted Fang Zhixing, and said with awe, "Thank you for your mercy, hero. We will see you soon."

They helped up eight of their subordinates, drove the carriage, and ran away in despair.

The thin dog jumped out and said in surprise: "When did you become so kind and didn't kill anyone?"

Fang Zhixing responded: "This is called keeping a low profile, leaving more escape routes for myself."

Xigou understands that when a cheater starts to keep a low profile, it means that he has made up his mind to do something big!

Of course, a person can't be low-key just because he wants to, he needs to have absolute strength.

For example, when Fang Zhixing faced the Hu brothers and sisters, his strength was completely crushed and he completely controlled the situation. He could kill whenever he wanted and let go whenever he wanted.

This is strength!

In the past, he would have killed him directly, no matter what he did, he would have killed him first.

But it's different now...
