The Smiling, Proud Wanderer, becoming a disciple of Yue Buqun

Jiang Ning quickly turned around and struck the attacker's wrist with his left hand, then slid his sword down with his right hand, killing another person.

call out!call out!call out!

Several whooshing sounds came from the air. Jiang Ning flicked his hand, and his inner force surged out. Several hidden weapons were knocked to the ground with a clang.

Jiang Ning attacked swiftly and mercilessly, causing the attackers to pause instinctively, watching him with suspicion.

A moment of silence fell over the room.

Jiang Ning glanced left and right, then switched his grip on the sword from reverse to upright.

next second.

Fighting breaks out again.

Jiang Ning sprinted forward and charged into the group.

when!when!when!

Jiang Ning swung his sword left and right, killing three or four people in the blink of an eye. In an instant, another person charged forward, and Jiang Ning swung his sword and cut open his abdomen, his intestines and blood spurting out.

After killing this person, Jiang Ning killed another person with a diagonal slash.

call out!

A palm strike came.

In the brief moment that Jiang Ning had just killed one person, another expert attacked from behind.

Jiang Ning turned around and raised his hand to meet the opponent's palm, his powerful internal force sending the opponent flying.

shhhhhh!

Seven people emerged from the crowd and simultaneously thrust their swords at Jiang Ning, targeting seven acupoints all over his body.

Jiang Ning raised his sword and slashed repeatedly, blocking four of the attacks, but three more were still coming at him.

Jiang Ning glanced around, not staying in one place. The next second, he burst into speed and lunged at one of them.

When the other party saw Jiang Ning charging straight at him, he immediately knew Jiang Ning's intentions and then sneered.

He was no ordinary nobody; he was a top-tier expert. Although he acknowledged Jiang Ning's martial arts skills were strong, he didn't believe Jiang Ning could kill him while surrounded by so many people.

Reason told him he should retreat, but Jiang Ning's contempt for him angered him. Even though he knew he was inferior to Jiang Ning, he still advanced instead of retreating and began to fight Jiang Ning.

"Your martial arts skills are very strong, but I'm not someone to be trifled with!"

The swordsman sneered.

Jiang Ning's expression was cold and stern; he didn't say a word, but his every move was ferocious.

Dang Dang Dang!

The sounds of slashing were as dense as a torrential rain. The two exchanged blows extremely quickly, exchanging dozens of blows in the blink of an eye. The expression of the swordsman changed from anger and arrogance at the beginning to solemnity now.

when!

Jiang Ning slashed out with his sword, knocking the weapon away. At this moment, the swordsman could no longer withstand the pressure and shouted at the others.

"help me!"

The rest of the troops had already attacked.

Jiang Ning ignored everything and focused on slashing at the man.

After his weapon was knocked away, the swordsman struggled to parry, but after blocking several attacks, he could no longer hold on.

puff!

A severed arm flew up out of thin air.

Before he could even let out a scream, Jiang Ning slashed horizontally with his sword again, and his head flew off.

After quickly killing the man, Jiang Ning continued his actions, swinging his hand to strike back at someone behind him.

The attacker took a step back to dodge, and Jiang Ning slashed forward again, cutting open his seppuku. The attack was so fast that the attacker's eyes showed panic, and he had no choice but to continue retreating. But Jiang Ning leaped up and jumped above him, thrusting his sword down and sliding down from the attacker's back, instantly slicing open his back.

"what!!!"

The excruciating pain in his back caused the expert to open his eyes wide and scream in agony.

After killing two people, Jiang Ning continued his attack, cutting a bloody path through the crowd surrounding him.

At this moment, seeing Jiang Ning charging left and right, these people all stopped and dared not rush forward again.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Jiang Ning broke out of the encirclement and ran wildly towards the distant mountain road, showing no intention of continuing the fight.

As everyone watched Jiang Ning's departing figure, they instinctively wanted to chase after him, but the next second they all stopped, looking at each other, and seeing fear in each other's eyes.

The group of martial arts masters could only watch helplessly as Jiang Ning left.

"Should we...keep chasing them?"

"A master asked."

No one responded.

"Chase!"

One of the men gritted his teeth and said, "He must be at his last gasp now. If we don't kill him now, we'll have even less of a chance later."

"But...how do I pursue her?"

Then someone else spoke up, glancing at the others around him.

He saw fear in the eyes of these people.

“His martial arts skills are excellent, and now that he has escaped, no one below the top level can catch him.”

After saying that, he looked at the people around him and said, "You don't need to chase after them."

These people are all below first-rate level, they can't catch up with Jiang Ning at all, and they will only drag him down.

After a brief discussion, a dozen or so men continued to pursue Jiang Ning, while the rest went back to report.

"Go, we can't let him escape no matter what."

One of them chased after Jiang Ning in the direction he had left, his face grim.

"His strength is too great. How old is he now? Eighteen years old."

"He has this kind of strength at eighteen. If he is given more time to grow, who will be his match?"

"He must be killed!"

The dozen or so experts remained silent and quickened their pace in pursuit.

……

Jiangning sped along the road and entered a forest.

It was already night, and the moon hung high in the sky, its scattered light casting a silvery glow over the dark forest.

rustle.

rustle.

Jiang Ning walked through the woods shirtless, the blood on his sword already congealed. Before long, he sat down under a tree.

"Ho...ho..."

Jiang Ning sat on the ground without saying a word, his expression calm, with only the slight rise and fall of his chest and his slightly heavy breathing.

After sensing the condition inside his body, Jiang Ning frowned and remained silent.

Since he entered the town and began fighting, Jiang Ning has been paying extra attention to his body because he was worried about the poison. Although the battle was fierce, he was not injured and avoided being poisoned, but he had consumed too much of his internal energy.

However, this situation is already quite good; the internal energy can still be restored. If there were injuries, it would be serious.

"be careful."

Just then, the sound of horses' hooves echoed from the distant woods.

Those dozen or so experts, having somehow acquired horses, were now heading towards the woods.

Upon hearing these sounds, Jiang Ning gripped his sword, looked toward the source of the sounds, narrowed his eyes, and a hint of bloodlust spread across them.

Chapter 329: It's Raining

"Be careful, Ning Yanwang's trail disappeared here, he might be hiding in the woods."

One man, carrying a copper hammer, walked at the front, looking extremely nervous.

The only sound in the quiet forest was the footsteps of a dozen or so people.

rustle.

rustle.

A slight noise suddenly came from the bushes nearby, immediately drawing everyone's attention.

A rabbit hopped out of the grass.

A false alarm.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief for no apparent reason.

call out!

"what!!"

A scream rang out from not far away. Everyone looked over and saw a man clutching his neck, lying on the ground convulsing.

"Ning Yanwang is nearby!"

The others shouted loudly.

In the distance, Jiang Ning crouched in the bushes, watching these people with a cold gaze.

tick.

tick.

Blood dripped from the tip of the sword onto the ground.

"Be careful, it's dark here. He's probably hiding in the shadows and ambushing us. Don't let him sneak up on us."

A man shouted loudly.

"Xu..."

Suddenly a horse neighed, startling everyone who simultaneously swung their weapons and hacked at it, instantly turning the horse into mincemeat.

However, nothing happened after chopping it up.

"Not the King of Hell."

One of them frowned and said something, then gave some instructions.

"Be careful."

Everyone entered the woods with utmost caution.

One of the men, wielding two copper hammers, walked at the very back, gripping the hammers tightly, his expression even more tense.

His martial arts skills were the weakest among the group. Although so many people were chasing Jiang Ning, the nighttime environment, his own strength, and the fact that someone had just been killed made him extremely nervous.

"Why is it getting darker and darker?"

As they ventured deeper into the forest, the dense foliage blocked out the moonlight, plunging the surroundings into complete darkness, so dark that one could not see their own hand in front of their face. Only the hands of a few people carrying tinderboxes provided a faint light.

tick.

tick.

A damp sensation landed on a man's face, and when he touched it, he found it was water.

"It's raining."

Another person spoke up.

Just as the man had said, rain began to fall.

Crash.
