CHAPTER 73: AMBUSH

Suddenly, the devil cultivator saw something and smiled, three leaves were falling in front of him about 50 meters away, it meant that one of his companions was on that tree, he finally started slowing down, he was certain that they could triumph over Lin Feng.

Judging by Lin Feng’s speed, he was definitely as strong as him, while his senior sister was at the peak of Foundation Establishment realm, and not to mention, if somehow Lin Feng was able to survive them by prolonging the battle, then it would still work in their favor.

When Lin Feng sensed the pace of the devil cultivator decreasing, he didn’t slow down, instead he increased his speed to show that he was completely unaware of the latent danger.

The devil cultivator stopped when he reached the tree and turned around to look at Lin Feng, who was about 100 meters away from him, this distance wasn’t much, "One more righteous fool who thinks that slaying devils is their eternal goal."

His voice was loud enough, he was certain Lin Feng would be able to hear it.

When Lin Feng heard that, he finally slowed down his speed and stopped completely at 20 meters away from the devil cultivator, he also knew that it was the tree beside the devil where his companion was. Truly, how predictable.

Well, he couldn’t expect much from a group of cultivators who were this weak and untrained, "Devils, huh? What makes you think that I am not a devil myself... as for the matter of slaying you, it’s just a mission which I wish to complete perfectly."

The devil cultivator’s eyes widened slightly, he really wasn’t expecting that kind of answer. Usually, righteous cultivators act all high and mighty, upholding their image even if no one is present nearby.

So, in his eyes, Lin Feng was truly speaking the truth, "Oh well, you should really be proud of it. Some cultivators have come in a group, but they have failed and fled like cowards, and yet you came alone and tracked us down, now perish."

The moment the devil cultivator said that, he dashed with hidden needles in his hand, halfway through, he threw them at Lin Feng.

Lin Feng moved as the needles left the hands of the devil cultivator, twisting his body in multiple places, dodging each and every single one of the needles.

Lin Feng could even see that those needles were gleaming with a greenish shine as they passed by him, no doubt they were laced with poison.

Although Lin Feng was certain that they weren’t dangerous for him, he still decided to be slightly cautious because if the poison was potent, then it might make him little dizzy, although he can still suppress it with his will, there was no need to reach that situation anyway.

The moment Lin Feng landed on the ground, the devil cultivator arrived close enough, a stab from a knife was aimed at Lin Feng’s heart, before Lin Feng could even decide to dodge, he felt an extreme danger as another knife came from above.

Finally, the person who was hiding had decided to attack, Lin Feng had sensed this person’s killing intent but couldn’t predict when they would attack without seeing them. Now that knives were coming for him, he was able to sense it.

He smirked slightly and, instead of dodging the stab at his heart, he grabbed the hand of the devil cultivator and pulled him in the direction of the other knife, which was coming for him.

The devil cultivator was stunned, and before he could even think, he felt a sharp pain, as the knife struck him on his left shoulder blade and got buried to the hilt.

"Arrrghhh..." the devil cultivator gritted his teeth and wanted to move away from Lin Feng. The fact that his opponent could easily grab his hand and use him like a shield meant he was far stronger than him.

Not to mention, the knife was laced with poison, he wanted to take the antidote quickly, or his demise was certain in a few breaths.

Lin Feng sensed the struggle of the devil cultivator in his hand, but his eyes were on the woman in the air who was coming toward him with a short sword in her hand, her cultivation realm was at the peak of Foundation Establishment.

Lin Feng’s smile grew slightly wider, he twisted his hand...

CRAAACCCCKKKKKKK!

"AAAAAHHHHHHHH..." The hand of the cultivator he was holding got broken at the elbow.

Lin Feng let go of it and took a step back at the exact time to dodge the slash of the short sword, which passed his forehead with a hair’s breadth distance.

His eyes met with the woman who was now exactly at his level, the woman was shocked, the moment Lin Feng used his blood qi, she was able to sense that it was only at the early stage of Grade 2, no doubt it seemed far robust, but the quality was definitely what she predicted.

She didn’t know how strong his qi cultivation was, as until now, Lin Feng hadn’t used his spirit qi once, unless he used it, she wouldn’t be able to analyze it, so it was impossible to discern his cultivation realm.

But nonetheless, even using only his blood qi, he was easily overpowering her junior and dodging her attack, something was definitely amiss here.

She decided to distance herself the moment she landed, but how could Lin Feng not have anticipated that, he dodged her attack so closely to avoid distancing himself from her, his hand immediately caught her hand, which was holding the short sword, and after twisting it he plunged the sword toward her own thigh, which was closer to it.

The woman wanted to struggle when she felt his hand, but it was already too late, and since she was in the air, she wasn’t able to muster enough strength...

PIAAKKKKK!

"Nnnnnghhhh... AAAAAAGGGHHHHH..." The sword easily penetrated her, its tip came out from the other side of her thigh, and it was also laced with the same poison.

Instead of letting the sword go, Lin Feng pulled it out and threw it at the only working hand of the man who was about to take a pill to cure the poison, which he had taken out from his storage bag.

The sword easily pierced the palm, tearing through it, and got buried in the ground, pinning the hand of the devil cultivator along with it.

"Aaaaaahhhhhhhh... Fucckkk... noooooo," the devil cultivator cried in agony, he could already feel his life slipping due to the poison.
