Chapter 51 Blessed With Luck

At this moment, a few kilometers away from Chen Yiming and Deng Hu, a woman in a black dress and three male subordinates were on the hillside looking at the path below.

There were many man-made fish ponds surrounding the path, which was the only road through the area.

“Big Sister, it’s already late. Why don’t we leave? There are too many mosquitoes here,” one of the men suggested.

It was midsummer, and there were many mosquitoes in the wilderness. If one stood still just for a short while, they would be bitten a few times.

“He San, what kind of bad idea did you come up with? What if you ruin the professor’s plan? Do you still want to become a bloodline warrior?” Another man berated him on the spot. f𝚛e𝗲𝔀e𝚋𝑛o𝘃𝒆𝗹.c𝗼𝒎

“Long Sheng, I was just kidding. Why are you so serious? It’s been so many days, but no one has appeared,” the man quibbled.

The forest was silent. Their conversation suddenly disturbed the peace and a few birds flew away.

“Alright, all of you quieten down and do your jobs,” the woman in the black dress said.

Once she spoke, both He San and Long Sheng shut their mouths and did not dare to retort.

The woman in the black dress had undergone four transformations and was not afraid of being bitten by mosquitoes.

She was the person in charge of the three of them, and they were responsible for intercepting and killing anyone who came to investigate the missing persons.

The other three men were also martial arts practitioners at the level of the second transformation, and were outstanding among their peers in the organization. Therefore, they were assigned to the team to intercept and kill any meddlers.

Suddenly, the sound of footsteps breaking fallen branches and leaves rang out.

The woman in the black dress was the first to notice the commotion and glared at He San and Long Sheng

“Let’s go and check out the situation,” the woman in the black dress instructed.

The three male subordinates did not dare to make any objections and moved out in unison.

In the woods, Chen Yiming and Deng Hu stopped for a while after walking a small distance.

After Deng Hu used his Dog Snout Technique to verify the direction, they continued moving forward.

Thus, the two of them did not move quickly, and the long journey gradually started to seem rather boring.

Before he knew it, the two of them were no longer as cautious as they were at the start, and they began chatting quietly.

“Let me make this clear first. I’m only a detective, and I’m only responsible for finding the clues for you. When we arrive at the location, I’ll have completed my assigned job as promised, and I’ll leave directly,” Deng Hu emphasized. Since he cultivated the Dog Snout Technique, which had the lowest combat strength among those of the same level, he was unwilling to participate in any combat.

“What if the people aren’t there? How can the job be considered completed? Besides, if we fight, you still can rely on me,” Chen Yiming said in surprise.

He was unwilling to let Deng Hu leave just like that.

If he fought his way in and could not find the team there, without Deng Hu’s sharp nose, he did not know how he would be able to find Chen Shaojie. “Mister Chen, this is how a detective works. You’re just making things difficult for me,” Deng Hu said pitifully.

“Alright, but this way, you can only receive the deposit. You can forget about the rest of the money,” Chen Yiming replied.

The deposit was half the price and had already been given to Deng Hu.

Deng Hu had a bitter expression on his face and was unable to say a word.

Previously, many ordinary families had offered a better price than Chen Yiming, but he hadn’t dared to take on such cases because he was afraid that the risk would be too high.

When Chen Yiming contacted him, he had revealed that he was a core disciple of a martial arts school. After three transformations, he could directly be promoted to a core disciple.

He only accepted the case after ensuring that Chen Yiming would be in charge of the combat.

However, he wasn’t as stubborn as Chen Yiming, so it wouldn’t be easy for him to get the rest of the money.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense. The two of them did not continue chatting, and Deng Hu focused on speeding up the search.

At the entrance of the forest, four figures were blocking the path of the two who were rushing over.

The leader of the group was the woman in the black dress. Her eyes flashed coldly, and she held a red longsword in her hand. The longsword was more than a meter long. The blade reflected the moonlight, and there were intricate patterns on the hilt.

Seeing this, Deng Hu hid half a meter behind Chen Yiming in fright.

“Mister Chen, you promised to keep me safe. You can’t go back on your word.”

Deng Hu’s voice was trembling as he spoke.

He had only dared to take on the case because he felt that Chen Yiming had combat strength. Now that they were really faced with a fight, he could only hope that Chen Yiming was a trustworthy person.

Of course, Chen Yiming wouldn’t go back on his word. He didn’t even spare Deng Hu a glance.

At this moment, he felt that he had suddenly been blessed by Lady Luck.

Just when he had achieved a breakthrough and was preparing to go out and execute his grand plan to secretly learn sword techniques, someone delivered himself right to his doorstep.

The team responsible for guarding the entrance would not be stronger than he had expected, no matter how strong they were. He planned to openly display himself at the level of three transformations.

This saved him a lot of trouble.

The woman in the black dress didn’t say anything else. She directly gestured for her three subordinates to take down the opponent.

“Kid, my back hurts from sitting here. Why didn’t you come earlier?”

He San took the lead and charged at Chen Yiming.

The black saber in his hand glowed with a white light as he charged forward. “Who asked you to be so nosy? Are you uncomfortable staying in the city? You’re just courting death,” Long Sheng muttered.

His figure followed closely behind He San as he charged at Chen Yiming from another direction.

With each step, he cracked open the surface of the ground. He carried a gigantic axe on his shoulder, the blade bringing with it a tremendous force.

The remaining man said nothing.

ar

He raised his fist and charged forward like an arrow, aiming straight for Deng Hu, who was standing behind Chen Yiming.

“Swish! Swish! Swish!”

The sounds of three slashes rang out.

Chen Yiming suppressed his speed to the level of the third transformation and took care of the woman’s three subordinates at lightning speed.

The woods fell silent again.

The person who had been speaking arrogantly earlier fell to the ground. He died without even being able to fight back.

Chen Yiming didn’t want their painful cries to disturb his plan of secretly learning sword techniques. Therefore, he had pierced right through their hearts.

Deng Hu’s pale face regained some of its color, and he took a few steps back to retreat to a safer distance.

“Mister Chen, quickly finish off the remaining girl,” Deng Hu urged.

The crisis had yet to be completely resolved. He was worried that the woman in the black dress would do the same thing as Chen Yiming.

Chen Yiming didn’t make a move directly, unlike what Deng Hu had expected. Instead, he stood his ground and waited.

He was afraid that he would scare the woman off if he made the first move. If she turned and ran away, what would happen to his plan? After all, he couldn’t just force others to fight him.

“Who are you?” the woman in the black dress asked.

“Chen Yiming.” Chen Yiming announced his name.

His tone was blunt and arrogant.

“…” The woman in the black dress was infuriated. He was taunting her.

This was the first time in so many years that someone had replied to her in such a manner. It felt like he didn’t even care about her.

“You’re courting death!” The woman charged forward at lightning speed and slashed horizontally with her sword.

Water Splitting Sword Technique.

A blinding red light flashed past, as though it was going to cut through everything. A sharp cutting force surged towards him.

The speed that Chen Yiming had displayed earlier was at the level of the third transformation.

This made her feel that even if he had held back, he would at most be on the same level as her, who had undergone four transformations. There was no need for her to retreat immediately.

“Alright!” Chen Yiming cooperated with her and shouted.

Mantis Snake Sword Technique.

He suppressed his strength to the same level as his opponent and launched a counterattack.

The two of them exchanged more than ten blows in the blink of an eye.

From the looks of it, they were evenly matched.
