Chapter 537: Chapter 60: Unmatched in This Place_2
But he worried that he and his companions might, because of Li Fei’s lack of experience, blunder into someone else’s trap, so he felt compelled to step forward and offer a warning.
“Mr. Lv, we need to take over this city as quickly as possible, so we don’t have time to slowly grind it out with those people.”
Li Fei gave a simple explanation.
“Mr. Lv, there’s no need to say more, there’s nothing to worry about here.”
He wasn’t unwilling to listen to advice, he just trusted Yun Shu’s judgment.
Since Yun Shu had assigned him to stay behind and take over Chong City, it meant that there couldn’t possibly be Martial Arts Masters or True Masters of that caliber of combat power within the city.
Otherwise, Yun Shu would have asked Luo Shi to stay behind as well.
Moreover, Li Fei guessed that those coming to ‘slaughter the city’ should be arriving soon, so he wanted to take complete control of Chong City as quickly as possible, to ensure there would be no further issues inside the city.
Lv Wenxing, interrupted by Li Fei, felt a flash of anger, but out of respect for Li Fei’s imperial envoy status, he could only forcibly hold it back.
His face a bit pale, he silently retreated, shaking his head at the other sitting officials:
“This brash youngster is arrogant and egotistical, he can’t take advice.”
“It’s normal, the guy dares to kick a prince in the street, it’d be weird if he weren’t arrogant.”
“Sigh, let’s just be on alert ourselves and not capsize our boat in this small ravine.”
Several sitting officials secretly communicated using their force.
After running for another dozen minutes or so, the group finally entered the Upper District where the Chief’s residence was located.
The roads here turned into concrete, and the streets were noticeably wider.
As the group turned a corner and was about to enter an empty street lit only by streetlights,
Lv Wenxing, who possessed a perception-type extraordinary ability, suddenly sensed something abnormal and urgently spoke out:
Before he could finish his sentence, Li Fei, who was at the front, left an afterimage on the spot and, like an arrow released from a bow, charged forward!
Many windows of the houses lining both sides of the street were open.
Hidden behind these windows were gunmen, but as Li Fei swept past the street, before the gunmen had time to lean out of the windows, they suddenly shuddered and then fainted.
Some of the gunmen that were further back did manage to lean out the windows, but just as they raised their guns to aim, before they could fire, they too fainted on the spot and tumbled down from the upper-story windows, landing on the street.
Wherever Li Fei passed, it was as if an invisible force swept across from both sides of the street, cleaning out all the gunmen that had been lying in ambush!
This scene made Lv Wenxing and the others behind him widen their eyes in astonishment.
But the ambush was far from over.
A sudden sound of a roaring rumble filled the air, like a shell flying at high speed.
A giant arrow, flickering with dark green light, descended from the sky, aimed at Li Fei’s head!
The arrow, two meters long and as thick as a wrist, was less an arrow and more a javelin.
Although not as fast as a bullet, the arrow’s power was much greater, with piercing force sufficient to break through the protective force of a martial artist at the Tao Foundation Stage!
The archer was clearly a powerful Tao Foundation Stage martial artist.
In the instant the loud booming sound erupted, the roof of a building ahead couldn’t withstand the rebounding force and directly crumbled and collapsed.
A martial artist wielding a giant bow stepped forward and leaped onto the rooftop of another building.
The heavy giant arrow hit a golden light, as if it had slammed into a Vajra Barrier.
With a deeply muffled metallic explosion, the arrow violently shattered, bursting into a sky full of splinters!
Li Fei didn’t dodge or avoid, and with the Mixed Element Vajra Force, he withstood this impressively powerful arrow.
Just then, as the reverberations hadn’t yet ceased, the air once again emitted a sharp exploding noise!
A red sword light flew out from a grocery store, igniting all the floating wood splinters in the air as it passed by.
All the wood splinters swirling around Li Fei caught fire, wrapping him entirely in flames!
But the swiftly approaching flying sword didn’t stab towards Li Fei from the front but suddenly changed direction.
The fiery sword light, one second below the eaves to the left, instantly appeared above a telephone pole behind Li Fei in the next moment.
The sound of booming that was initially distant had already turned into roars like thunder and wind, and these roars came from all directions, making it impossible to discern the source of the sound and naturally impossible to determine the position of the flying sword by sound alone.
The air pulled behind the sword light stretched out long stripes of fire, and these fiery stripes crisscrossed, composing a fiery net around Li Fei.
“Wind and Fire Burning Grass Sword!”
Lv Wenxing recognized the technique behind this flying sword.
This was Daluo Sect’s flying sword art, and the person wielding it was a direct disciple of the Daluo Sect, with killing power far surpassing an ordinary Possession Stage Great Mage!
“Rushing in so fast, looking for death?”
While Lv Wenxing mentally cursed, he also hastened forward.
But before he and a few other Tao Foundation Stage martial artists could reach Li Fei, the fiery net surrounding him rapidly contracted.
The nearly thousand-degree Celsius heat turned the ground into scorched black!
At that moment, Li Fei, enveloped in golden light, was already wearing the Mixed Element Star Armor.
He let the fire net tighten, then suddenly turned and launched a punch to the right.
The sound was like the ringing of a huge bell.
His fist, wrapped in Mixed Element Vajra Force, landed accurately on the palm-sized flying sword.
The flying sword was sent spinning away, the constricting fiery net was shattered, turning into a sea of fire.
Another streak of dark green arrow light hit Li Fei and then exploded above his head.
