Dragon Raja: Lu Mingfei Returns from the New Three Kingdoms

Chapter 44 Bewitching Sounds and Disorientation, Using Force to Overcome Skill and Display Divine Po

It must be said that the woman standing in front of Lu Mingfei was exceptionally beautiful.

With her incredible figure and stunningly beautiful face, if the person in front of him were Diao Chan, Lu Mingfei would absolutely believe that Lü Bu would abandon his position as crown prince to kill Dong Zhuo for her beauty.

Yes, in the twisted Three Kingdoms, Dong Zhuo planned to make Lü Bu his crown prince before he became emperor. It's unclear why Lü Bu killed Dong Zhuo.

The other person's appearance looked strangely familiar, and Lu Mingfei frowned, unable to recall how he had ever met someone of this caliber before.

"Shutoku Aki's older sister, Shutoku Mai."

Oh! Lu Mingfei thought to himself that his memory was still pretty good. Although the other person looked very different from Shudeya, they did share some resemblance.

It's like the ugly duckling eventually grows into a swan, but the ugly duckling and the swan definitely have similarities. It's just that Mai Shude looks like she evolved from Aki Shude.

Without pausing, Mai Shude continued to reveal the purpose of their trip.

"My initial goal was to find the remains of the Dragon King Norton, but my mission changed at the last minute. My boss wanted me to test the skills of the newly promoted S-rank student from Kassel College."

Frankly, Lu Mingfei was reminded of the twisted three times in his dream. He shrugged.

"If I were your boss, I definitely wouldn't let you do something like this."

"How so?"

Mai Shude was overjoyed at Lu Mingfei's initiative to chat, but her boss's new instruction was to try to find out as much as possible about Lu Mingfei's background.

To catch Lu Mingfei's kick, she had just used Blood Explosion, a secret technique that temporarily purifies dragon bloodlines and can multiply one's strength.

There are side effects, of course, but right now it's more important to recover her physical condition quickly. The more Lu Mingfei chats with her, the better she'll feel.

Lu Mingfei was unaware of Jiu De Mai's mindset, and even if he knew, he wouldn't care; he simply chuckled.

"Your beauty is undoubtedly far more lethal than your strength. Making you do this kind of work is comparable to making Diao Chan lead an army into battle."

Mai Shude looked utterly speechless; the other person's words implied that she was just a pretty face.

Although she had almost been knocked to the Sanzu River by her opponent, no one would be happy to be told that, especially Mai Shutoku, who was quite proud of her skills.

She is the boss's sharpest weapon, not just a pretty face.

Mai Shude sang softly, and her body disappeared into the night once more.

"To be fair, assassination might work, but a direct confrontation is probably not so good."

Lu Mingfei calmly commented on the other party's methods, his hands still hanging down, appearing to be taking no precautions.

"Ding ding!"

In the darkness, two sharp clanging sounds of metal clashing rang out. Yes, Mai Shude was carrying two swords; she was a ninja specializing in close combat.

Logically speaking, it would be better to let the enemy see a knife first, and then use the second knife as a surprise move at a crucial moment.

However, Mai Shude clearly had her own philosophy. Although she used the second strike early on, and although Lu Mingfei blocked her use of the Dark Illumination, Mai, who retreated immediately after the first touch, breathed a sigh of relief.

Unlike before when she couldn't even see how Lu Mingfei rushed up to her, this time she saw it clearly, and saw how Lu Mingfei blocked her attack.

The boost to her physical abilities from the Bloodlust skill allowed her to exchange a few blows with Lu Mingfei, which was enough, since her mission was simply to test her skills.

She's a daredevil ninja capable of carrying out suicidal missions, but the boss clearly doesn't intend for her to perish here.

From Lu Mingfei's perspective, aside from the difficulty in seeing the other party, their location was basically impossible for him to hide.

After all, in Twisted Three Kingdoms, even strategists whose physical abilities are inferior to those of generals can clearly hear the sounds of battle from a hundred miles away, making it extremely easy for them to locate the enemy by sound.

For example, right now, the other party is... how come there are two of them?

Two voices came at him from the left and right, but it wasn't a big problem, since he had two hands.

He parried from both sides, and the sound of something rushing from the left vanished like a bubble, while from the right, a crisp sound of metal clashing rang out.

But there was only one sound, yet Shude Mai was carrying two knives.

"bass--"

The knife was extremely fast, slicing through the air, aiming to pierce Lu Mingfei's waist and abdomen, but the sound only rang out after the knife was drawn.

It was an extremely dangerous situation. This slash was exceptionally sharp, seemingly carrying the resentment of being mocked as a mere ornament. It broke the sound barrier, wanting to pierce the kidney of this blind man in front of it to prove itself.

It was truly terrifying. Even Lu Mingfei glanced at Jiu De Mai with indifference.

Although still under the light of the underworld, Mai Shude was absolutely certain that Lu Mingfei was looking into her eyes.

He looked into Mai Shude's eyes and took a step forward, as if to say, "That's it."

Yes, it's unbelievable. It had clearly broken the sound barrier, it was comparable to a point-blade strike, and that cold light was about to pierce Lu Mingfei in the next instant.

But in Mai's view, it was as if all the movements had slowed down. Lu Mingfei took a leisurely step forward and just barely dodged her attack.

However, the jade pendant at his waist was pierced by that sharp edge.

"Slow down time? No! He dodged my attack beforehand!"

Yes, Lu Mingfei was already moving before she could block him. The super-fast attack must be simultaneous. If it were even a moment too late, Lu Mingfei could use the sword in his other hand to defend against her attack.

As if he knew she would make that move, Lu Mingfei took a step forward in advance and just dodged her attack.

A wave of emotion surged within him, but Jiu De Mai still retreated at the first touch, while Lu Mingfei spoke up indifferently.

"How would you like to test my skills? Do you need my help?"

........

After a moment of silence, Mai Shude's voice came from all directions.

"No need, my mission is accomplished once I've delivered this strike."

It's like some people who, after succeeding once, try to replicate that success by following the same path.

Since this technique, originally designed for Caesar, is also effective against Lu Mingfei, and was the closest Mai Shude came to hitting Lu Mingfei, she only needs to intensify her efforts, and she should be able to achieve results.

Unfortunately, fate does not reward those who try to find their sword by marking the boat.

At least Lu Mingfei didn't offer a reward. He sheathed his sword, then brought the heels of his hands together, his entire body tensed abruptly, lifted one leg, and then...

It slammed heavily into the ground!

The sound of a bomb exploding rang out, and the white stone pavement cracked instantly like a spider web. But the force did not stop there, extending all the way into the bushes and flowers along the roadside.

As a result, dirt and stones flew everywhere, streetlights collapsed and illuminated the night sky, green leaves and petals flew high, spreading colorful halos under the streetlights.

However, there is only one place where the center of the fluttering petals is a spherical hollow, and if you look closely, you can see an imperceptible black smoke, like ink stains, inside.

Lu Mingfei looked up as he walked to the streetlight that had been knocked to the ground by his presence.

"Speaking of which, can you change direction in mid-air?"
