Transmigration: Experiencing Life's End - Dying Peacefully in One's Sleep

Chapter 701 Journey to the Mountains and Seas 9

Liu Suifeng felt a sword aura coming from behind him. In the instant he turned around, he poured his inner strength into his fan to block the attack, but he was still forced back two steps.

Wen Piaoran was already in front of him, raising his sword and swinging it. Liu Suifeng spread his arms and bent back to dodge.

Immediately following was another sword aura. He lightly touched the ground with his toes and leaped into the air, flipping over to dodge it.

But the tree behind him was cleaved in two by the powerful sword energy.

"Young Master!" Song Mingzhu was also worried when she saw this scene. If the young master had been hit by the knife, he might have been seriously injured.

"Oh dear, it was an accident. I didn't mean to hit so hard," Wen Piaoran said with a smile, admitting that she hadn't been able to stop herself.

Liu Suifeng flicked her plain fan, and countless silver threads flew towards her.

Seeing this, Song Mingzhu also swung her whip and attacked.

Two against one, Wen Piaoran handled it with ease.

She used her inner strength to shake the silver threads apart, then used her sword to wrap around the whip, and with a forceful pull, Song Mingzhu was in front of her.

Song Mingzhu tried to pull back the whip to attack, but found she couldn't, so she had to use her legs instead.

Wen Piaoran grabbed her by the collar and used her as a weapon to attack Liu Suifeng, who was flying towards her.

Liu Suifeng took a few steps back, then swung his fan in retaliation.

Wen spun around and stood up, still holding Song Mingzhu, who was being held captive and unable to move.

Undeterred, Song Mingzhu tried to move her body: "Let me go."

"Little sister, I'll spare your life since you're pretty," Wen Piaoran said, then threw the person toward Liu Suifeng.

Liu Suifeng saw the person coming towards him and immediately took a step to the side to avoid them.

Seeing this, Song Mingzhu felt a moment of disappointment. After landing, she steadied herself and silently picked up the whip from the ground.

Upon seeing this, Wen Piaoran chuckled, "Your young master is truly oblivious to romance."

Song Mingzhu glanced at Liu Suifeng but said nothing.

Liu Suifeng didn't care about irrelevant words at all. He still had to get past Wen Piaoran to get the Hero's Token. Soon the two were fighting again.

While dealing with him, Wen Piaoran noticed out of the corner of her eye that everyone had freed up their hands, so she called out, "Xiao Qiushui, you take your people and leave first."

Not far away, Xiao Qiushui was being supported by Deng Yuhan, and she was not at all at a disadvantage.

He knew he wasn't as good as Wen Piaoran, so he decisively decided not to hold him back.

They were all injured, and if it weren't for Wen Piaoran holding them up while she was dealing with the strongest few, their situation today would probably be in serious trouble.

After thinking it through, Xiao Qiushui gave one last piece of advice: "Ning Qi, be careful."

Wen Piaoran waved one hand behind his back, signaling him to stop talking nonsense and hurry up and leave.

"Who exactly are you? With such high martial arts skills, why are you almost unknown in the martial arts world?" After fighting with her for a long time, Liu Suifeng felt more and more that this person was unfathomable.

I've already given it my all, but it feels like she hasn't tried at all; it's like she's just stalling for time.

Seeing that Xiao Qiushui was about to take the person away, he was worried that he would not be able to get the Hero's Token, but this Ning Qi was really difficult to deal with.

Wen Piaoran smiled without saying a word: "I am Ning Qi, don't you know me? As for the rumors, it's not too late to become famous now."

Liu Suifeng didn't believe her and instead gestured for Song Mingzhu to go after them first.

Upon receiving the order, Song Mingzhu was a little worried that her young master wouldn't be able to defeat this woman, but she still dared not disobey and left through gritted teeth.

Seeing this, Liu Suifeng even quickened his movements, trying to stop Wen Piaoran from chasing after the person.

During the fight, Wen Piaoran blocked the attack and even chuckled lightly; she had no intention of chasing after him at all.

"What are you laughing at?" Liu Suifeng asked when he saw her laughing.

Wen Piaoran countered with a question: "Guess why I didn't go after him?"

Liu Suifeng's expression changed slightly, a very subtle change that Wen Piaoran wouldn't have noticed if she hadn't been standing so close to him.

"You brought people with you?"

"Quick reaction, you're clever." Her puppet was no pushover.

Liu Suifeng instantly decided not to fight her anymore, since he couldn't win anyway, and he used his lightness skill to leave.

"You think you can leave now? It won't be that easy." Wen Piaoran also stopped joking and started to act seriously, speeding up her pace.

Liu Suifeng was sent flying by her palm strike, and he landed on the ground, feeling quite uncomfortable. Wen Piaoran then approached him with her sword, the tip pressed against his neck.

At that moment, he realized the true gap between the two of them.

Wen Piaoran looked down at him, a smile playing on her lips: "You lost. I only need to make a light slash and you'll be dead."

"Do as you please, whether you want to kill or torture me." Liu Suifeng admitted that he was no match for his opponent and had lost. He turned his head slightly and closed his eyes.

Feeling somewhat resentful, she thought she would never see the gang leader, Sister Shirong, or the person who gave her the medicine again, whom she hadn't encountered in all these years.

As Liu Suifeng was thinking about his regrets, he suddenly felt a loosening in his waist.

He opened his eyes and saw Wen Piaoran use his sword to cut his belt. After cutting it, the tip of the sword was pressed against his neck, deliberately preventing him from making any movement.

His usually impassive face finally changed; he gritted his teeth and glared at her: "Ning Qi!!"

Wen Piaoran raised an eyebrow and chuckled, her eyes scanning his slightly open collar, now free of a belt.

"This is revenge for you sending people to find me and block my way. Don't glare at me, I won't kill you."

“…You’re despicable and shameless.” Liu Suifeng glared at her, his chest heaving with anger. After a long while, he could only manage to utter these few words.

"Are you going to call me vulgar next? I didn't lay a finger on you."

"You..." He wanted to curse, but he didn't know how. He had never met someone like this before.

This is where I suffered the loss; it's the first time in over a decade that I've felt this way.

Wen Piaoran suddenly felt much better. Seeing others speechless, especially beautiful women, made her feel even more amused and entertained.

She chuckled a few times and sheathed her sword: "You can't catch up with Xiao Qiushui anymore, so I should go too."

After saying that, she used her lightness skill to leave, instantly disappearing from Liu Suifeng's sight.

Liu Suifeng endured the pain and sat up, pulling his loose clothes in front of him closer together.

He calmed down for a while, but still got angry and slapped a tree next to him, using the tree as a metaphor for that hateful woman to vent his anger.

"Xiao Qiushui is cunning, and Ning Qi is despicable. The two are indeed close friends, working together in a vicious and treacherous manner."

Leaves rustled down, and he swept the fallen leaves off his head, stood up, and quickly left.

They sent so many people to surround Xiao Qiushui, but he always managed to come up with clever ways to avoid them.

In fact, they didn't even see Madam Wu's shadow at first.

If we hadn't been chasing after them relentlessly, we might not have had a chance to see them at all, even if Xiao Qiushui had come to meet up with Old Madam Wu.

They originally had a chance of winning. Xiao Qiushui's side was not as strong as theirs, and in the end, it would only be up to them and Kang Chuyu to obtain the Hero Token based on their own abilities.

As a result of Ning Qi's help, her martial arts skills became unexpectedly high.

Liu Suifeng, remembering the humiliation she had just inflicted upon him, had a pale face and emanated a chilling aura the entire way.
