Chapter 67: Intimidation
Chapter 67: Intimidation
On the inner city street.
Looking at Jiang Ning stepping out of the carriage, Xu Yunfeng smiled, "Very well, it seems you don't want to make things difficult for your friend!"
At this moment, Cheng Ran quickly grabbed Jiang Ning's shoulder.
"Jiang Shidi, no!"
He shook his head repeatedly as he looked at Jiang Ning's gaze.
Jiang Ning chuckled, "How could my matter involve Ashi Cheng!"
As he spoke, Jiang Ning separated Cheng Ran's fingers and then leaped from the carriage, landing on the ground.
In the brightly lit inner city street, there were hardly any pedestrians.
Jiang Ning landed on the ground, the Ebony Longsword slung diagonally across his waist. His right hand gripped the handle of the sword tightly, causing his veins to bulge.
Such a clear action naturally caught Xu Yunfeng's attention.
His gaze involuntarily shifted from Jiang Ning to the long sword on his waist.
"Bold move! Learning martial arts for less than half a month, you dare to attack me with a sword! Even my brother Jiang Li doesn't have the courage to do that!"
At this moment, Jiang Ning saw that Xu Yunfeng's gaze had been drawn to his right hand holding the sword.
He was about to speak to divert his attention when he tightly gripped the bag of quicklime powder in his left hand.
Regardless of whether the ambush was effective, he would try it to gain an advantage.
At this moment.
A deep and resonant voice sounded from the corner of the street far away.
"Your courage is great, you dare to attack my disciple?!"
Hearing this voice, Jiang Ning's gaze froze.
Cheng Ran's face lit up with joy, "It's Master Wang!!"
Xu Yunfeng's body shook abruptly, fear evident in his eyes.
"How did he come!!"
At this moment, everyone's gaze turned towards the direction of the voice.
A figure appeared at the corner of the street far away.
A figure not particularly tall, but sturdy.
This was precisely Wang Jin, who had specially rushed over from the Canglang Martial Academy.
Seeing the scene from afar, Wang Jin's expression turned cold.
His disciple, whom he had just taken in today, was ambushed on the way. How could he not be angry?
If Jiang Ning really got into trouble, news of it spreading would make him lose face in Luo Shui County.
His most cherished disciple, taken in during the day, got into trouble at night.
How many peers would mock him if the news spread?
Instantly, Wang Jin felt a bit relieved.
Fortunately, Elder Brother Shen had sent someone to notify him, or he wouldn't have known that Jiang Ning had been ambushed by the Cao Family's people.
If he hadn't arrived tonight, he couldn't imagine what would have happened to Jiang Ning!!
If his hands and feet were crippled, it would be a waste of his extraordinary martial talent! That would be too regrettable!!
In the gaze of everyone, Wang Jin moved like a white monkey leaping through the forest, appearing between Jiang Ning and Xu Yunfeng in a few bounds.
"Was it you who wanted to hurt my disciple Wang Jin?"
Hearing the question that seemed to echo in his ear, Xu Yunfeng's body trembled. He quickly bowed.
"Greetings to Senior Master Wang!"
"Speak!" Wang Jin commanded.
Xu Yunfeng bowed again, "I was ordered by Inspector Cao to arrest Jiang Ning."
"Arrest my disciple?" Wang Jin suddenly roared, "Get lost!!"
"Yes!" Xu Yunfeng bowed and turned to leave without hesitation.
His departure was resolute, without a single word of explanation.
Clearly, he had given up!
"Stop!" Wang Jin was surprised for a moment before speaking again.
Xu Yunfeng immediately halted his steps, turned, and bowed to Wang Jin, "What more does Senior Master Wang want?"
Seeing Xu Yunfeng's posture, Wang Jin couldn't help but laugh in anger, "You want to hurt my disciple and just leave?"
Xu Yunfeng respectfully replied, "I understand!"
In the next moment.
Swish—
His hand flashed with a sword light, and the long sword was drawn from its scabbard.
He then turned the sword tip towards his abdomen and stabbed.
"Ssss—"
A sudden blade edge pierced the flesh, separating it from the body.
"Hiss—" Xu Yunfeng endured the excruciating pain, gritting his teeth as he spoke, "I'm merely a lowly county patrol officer. If Elder Wang, a revered figure like a grand Buddha, takes action personally, it would be a dishonor to his hands."
"It would also spread an unpleasant reputation of Elder Wang bullying the weak."
"Please forgive my mistake today, Elder Wang." Xu Yunfeng bowed his head, apologizing to Wang Jin.
Tick...
Tick...
Bright red blood flowed down the pale blade, gathering at the tip before dripping onto the ground.
Silence lasted for less than two breaths.

"Scram!!" Wang Jin spoke up.
"Thank you for your mercy, Elder Wang!" Xu Yunfeng, enduring the pain, bowed.
Then, he drew his weapon.
"Ssss—"
As blood was about to gush out, he pressed his left hand against his abdomen.
Soon after, he limped away, quickly disappearing from their sight.
Witnessing this scene, Jiang Ning's heart tightened even more.
He gained a new understanding of Xu Yunfeng.
Such a ruthless man!
Being ruthless to others wasn't surprising, but being ruthless to oneself was truly formidable.
"However, having a powerful backer feels great!!" Jiang Ning chuckled.
At the same time, he also gained a new understanding of the status of martial arts masters.
Xu Yunfeng, such a ruthless man, had quickly admitted defeat upon seeing his teacher, Wang Jin, appear.
When he sensed that his teacher intended to teach him a lesson, he didn't hesitate to slash himself, blocking his teacher from taking action.
This demonstrated the immense pressure that a martial arts master like Wang Jin exerted on Xu Yunfeng's psyche.
"Thank you, Teacher!" He bowed to Wang Jin in front of him.
Cheng Ran also quickly jumped down from the carriage.
"Greetings, Master Wang!"
Wang Jin turned and glanced at the two of them. "Don't linger here, hurry back!"
"Yes, Master Wang!" Cheng Ran bowed, "Disciple will escort Jiang Shidi back to the martial arts academy."
Wang Jin nodded, then looked at Jiang Ning again. "Remember this day, the fist is the truth! Study hard, and when you achieve mastery in martial arts, these petty ruffians won't dare to fart in your presence!"
After saying this, Wang Jin's figure swiftly vanished from their sight, clearly unwilling to accompany Jiang Ning and Cheng Ran.
"Teacher, you're as swift as the wind!" Cheng Ran exclaimed.
Jiang Ning exhaled lightly and nodded slowly, gripping the ebony longsword in his hand.
"Whether Teacher's appearance is Xu Yunfeng's luck or mine, I don't know!"
"Oh well!!"
"It's good that I didn't have to fight for my life today. Give me a few more days, and even if Xu Yunfeng is at the fifth stage of martial arts, I can still overpower and kill him!"
He muttered to himself, glancing again at the direction Xu Yunfeng had disappeared, confirming there were no unusual movements.
The pent-up essence force within his body gradually dissipated, and the bulging blue veins on the back of his hand returned to normal.
Seeing Jiang Ning turn around, Cheng Ran exclaimed, "Jiang Shidi, you just had such intense killing intent! It startled me!"
Jiang Ning, upon hearing this, forced a smile, "When it comes down to it, I can't just offer my neck for slaughter or surrender without a fight. I must give it my all!"
At this moment, Cheng Ran's expression suddenly turned solemn. "Jiang Shidi, I'm sorry!!"
Hearing the word "sorry," Jiang Ning instantly understood Cheng Ran's intention.
He shook his head, "I know Cheng Shixiong has done his best! No one expected Xu Yunfeng to be at the fifth stage of martial arts!"
"Blame me!" Cheng Ran reproached himself, then continued, "Jiang Shidi, you must be more careful from now on. Try to avoid leaving the martial arts academy. This Xu Yunfeng is a tough one; you can't deal with him for the time being!"
"I understand!" Jiang Ning nodded.
"Shidi, get in the carriage! I'll send you back to the academy!"
