"Ha, these days, what difference does it make if one's a governnt officer or not? They're just soone else's lapdog."
Amidst the many villains, a cold laugh echoed, followed by a chaotic clattering. In the daylight, one could see so shimring objects flying over, accompanied by a handful of white quickli sprinkled down from the walls on both sides of the alley.
Chen Mu remained calm amidst the sudden change. He shouted explosively, and with a sweep of his right hand, he tore off his robe. Then, with the "Raging Wind Montum," he swung it vigorously, enveloping a large amount of quickli and also wrapping up the shimring darts and other hidden weapons.
Hiss!!
The shimring, sharp darts, even when swept up by the robe with the Raging Wind Montum, still managed to puncture the robe slightly, falling onto Chen Mu's body, but most of their force was dissipated, and they were repelled one after another.
Without the slightest hesitation, Chen Mu flipped and swept his robe, and in an instant, he vanished beneath it, transforming into a violently rising figure that charged forward, brutally breaking into the crowd of many villains!
The alley was narrow.
If he had been continuously doused with quickli and bombarded with various thrown objects, even if he had the strength of three people, he couldn't catch them all. A martial man can fight ten, provided it's a fair fight.
But if he were ambushed unprepared by treacherous attacks, even a seven-year-old child with a poison-tipped sharp dagger could take the life of a skilled Blade Montum practitioner!
Chen Mu charged into the crowd, his blade sweeping through, and wherever the blade light reached, several people were instantly struck down. Although the situation seed even more perilous, with sticks and sharp blades coming from all directions targeting him, this close combat allowed him to avoid those threats.
At the sa ti.
Chen Mu also secretly felt fortunate that he had achieved Minor Achievent in Skin Toughening. The quickli and mixed hidden weapons had mostly lost their effect after being wrapped by his sweeping move.
Otherwise, after being continuously ambushed, reacting hastily might have also resulted in injuries. Once blinded or seriously hurt, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
"Kill!"
Upon entering the crowd, Chen Mu wielded a Servant's Knife, like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, killing indiscriminately. In no ti, he had struck down four or five bandits on the spot.
With Blade Montum at Perfection and Minor Achievent in Skin Toughening, it was like adding wings to a tiger. Now, whether in terms of physique or speed, Chen Mu was much faster than before, and he could bring out the power of the Blade Montum even more. His strength was more than just a little improved.
If he hadn't achieved Minor Achievent in Skin Toughening, relying solely on Blade Montum, being ambushed and subjected to low tactics like quickli, he might indeed have been killed on the spot. But now, with these low-level thugs trying to kill him, it was nothing short of a fantasy!
In just a mont.
The evil n lying dead around Chen Mu numbered seven or eight, with more than a dozen injured, retreating while moaning. So of the villains looked at Chen Mu with shock in their eyes.
Today, he was not wearing his official uniform, and being young, he didn't have an imposing appearance, but now, covered in blood with a cold gaze and bodies strewn under his feet, a strong oppressive force emanated from him.
"Don't be afraid of him, he's just one man!"
A villain roared from the crowd.
Following that, nearby, soone picked up various objects and threw them at Chen Mu, including more quickli powder and harmful weapons like stones and daggers, not caring if they hurt their own people.
Chen Mu reacted extrely quickly. Facing the incoming quickli and bricks and daggers, he imdiately bent over and lunged forward, crashing into a villain's arms with his knife, causing all the quickli powder to splash onto his back and the villain's body.
"Where did these vicious villains co from? So ruthless..."
Chen Mu dodged the threats, frowning slightly.
Typically, even gang criminals who have experienced so brawls would lose heart and retreat after he struck down more than a dozen of them consecutively.
However, this group not only did not retreat but also intensified their efforts, risking injuring their own to scatter quickli in the crowd, showing a level of ferocity that shocked Chen Mu, who had rarely seen such reckless brutes while serving as an official.
At that mont, Chen Mu had no interest in fighting to the death with these people. He eyed a direction and charged straight ahead, slashing five or six people as he tried to break out of the enclosure. He was about to rush out of the alley when suddenly, a large amount of quickli was thrown, enveloping the alleyway ahead in a thick white fog.
The scene beca even more chaotic. So of the thugs accidentally inhaled so of the li and imdiately cried out in pain, but even so, their ferocity did not diminish, and their sharp weapons continued to target Chen Mu.
Chen Mu also had no choice but to hold his breath and was even unable to open his eyes. He could only back against the wall and unleash the Raging Wind Blade Montum. The Servant's Knife flew up and down like a thousand winds howling, continuously slicing through the nearby thugs.
He had to break out!
A thought flashed through Chen Mu's mind, that even if the air in front was filled with li powder, he still had to hold his breath and charge through. Otherwise, in such a chaotic situation, swords and sharp weapons were no joke, and overturning in the ditch was not sothing he wanted to experience.
But just as Chen Mu was about to gather his breath and forcefully charge.
A voice, filled with fury, drowned out the roars of the many thugs.
"How dare you!"
Upon hearing this voice, Chen Mu imdiately steadied himself, brandishing the Servant's Knife up and down around him, and half-jokingly said, "Brother Min, if you had co any later, maybe I wouldn't see tomorrow's sun."
Chen Mu heard calls of "Min Baoyi," "Withdraw," "Tight wind," and so forth. The multitude of thugs scrambled to flee, no longer bothering with surrounding him, followed by a fierce gust of knife wind charging from one end of the alley.
Even though he was temporarily unable to open his eyes, the sound alone made it clear,
It was Min Baoyi's knife!
A strong Martial Man who had achieved Body Refinent Perfection, his muscles solidly refined and tough. Having mastered the Blade Montum and being a peak perforr, his Blade Technique was ruthlessly unparalleled. Everywhere he went, there was no adversary who could match him, rampaging through like a fierce beast.
When Chen Mu used so bloodstained water to slightly clean the li powder off his face and managed to open a small slit in his eyes, what he saw resembled a scene from hell—various kinds of flesh and organs sared all over the alley, many thug bodies torn apart as if by a wild beast!
Min Baoyi was very angry.
As the Prefecture Chief of the City Defense Division in the Ninth District, he boasted over drinks with Chen Mu that peace could be maintained in the Ninth District, naturally, because he was confident—not just in his own strength but, beyond the two hundred n under him, he also had many 'informants' constantly reporting to him the activities within the Ninth District.
No sooner had Min Baoyi finished his drink and conversation with Chen Mu than trouble erupted here. Had it not been for his informants, who were closely monitoring and reported the anomaly straight away, and since he was nearby, it would have been unclear how to explain the situation afterward.
"So many people to stir up such a scene without alerting ..."
Min Baoyi was very clear in his heart.
This was not targeted against Chen Mu but against him, or rather against Hongyu. It was ant to kill Chen Mu on his turf, to shock him and give Hongyu a lesson.
Min Baoyi, holding a bloody Servant's Knife, stopped beside Chen Mu and said solemnly, "How are you?"
"It's nothing, just got splashed with so li, a wash will do."
Chen Mu shook his head and asked, "Brother Min, do you know who these people are?"
"Not yet."
Min Baoyi, with a stern face, said, "But I deliberately let so go. We just need to follow these people to find the source. Don't worry, brother, I will sort this out for you."
Hearing Min Baoyi say this, Chen Mu did not ask further. He followed Min Baoyi back to the City Defense Division to clean up the ss on his body.
