78. Cut In Half
Haizhou City was a city located by the East Sea, and it had ports. rchants loaded their goods and sailed to other countries on the other side of the sea to do business, making huge profits from mariti trade. This was sothing that everyone knows.
Haizhou City was nominally under the jurisdiction of the Great Chang Dynasty, but in reality, as the Great Chang Dynasty had gradually declined over the years and there had been rebellions in various places, the governnt's control over the border areas had beco weak, including Haizhou City. In fact, it was jointly governed by the governnt and the Nine Profound Sect, with the latter being the main authority.
Therefore, when pirates appeared near Haizhou City, the Nine Profound Sect beca so nervous that they dispatched disciples to eliminate the pirates imdiately. Lin Fei and his team of about 20 people arrived at Haizhou City and went to the Nine Profound Sect branch there. The branch leader Mo Wen was acquired fifth level but was already over forty years old and unlikely to make further progress in his lifeti.
Upon seeing Lin Fei sitting in the seat of honor, Mo Wen imdiately respectfully greeted him, "Greetings, Chief. I am Mo Wen, the branch leader of the Nine Profound Sect in Haizhou City."
Mo Wen had received a pigeon ssage and knew that disciples from the Nine Profound Sect were coming, led by the "chief disciple" Lin Fei. He was to obey all of Lin Fei's orders. However, even though he knew the news beforehand, Mo Wen was still sowhat surprised to see such a young disciple becoming the chief disciple. Moreover, it seed that Lin Fei's cultivation level was not very high?
Mo Wen was not sure, but a team of twenty inner disciples was quite terrifying, enough to sweep the entire Haizhou City.
"Mo Wen, tell about the current situation in Haizhou City. Have there been any pirates?" Lin Fei asked directly.
Mo Wen thought for a mont and reported, "Reporting to the Chief, we haven't found any trace of pirates in Haizhou City at the mont. However, so nearby villages have encountered pirates.
Those pirates are extrely brutal, not only looting but also slaughtering people in nearby villages. Now, the villages outside Haizhou City have basically been looted by pirates, and no one dares to stay outside the city. They have all entered the city."
"Hmm, entered the city? You let people from outside the city co in?"
Lin Fei stared at Mo Wen with a cold gaze.
Mo Wen felt Lin Fei's sharp gaze like a saber and dared not look directly at him. Cold sweat even appeared on his forehead.
He cautiously replied, "This morning, I ordered so refugees from outside the city to enter the city. I carefully screened them, and they should be refugees, so it should be fine."
Lin Fei remained noncommittal and continued to ask, "How many refugees are there?"
"Probably more than a thousand people, all in tattered clothes, and they are all people who have survived from nearby villages by chance. I couldn't bear it, so..."
"Now give the order to surround all those thousand or so people. If there are any suspicious movents, kill them without rcy!"
Lin Fei gave the order.
"Yes, Chief."
Mo Wen didn't dare to delay and imdiately gave the order.
Lin Fei turned to the disciples of the Nine Profound Sect and said, "Let's go. If we're any later, what we see may only be a dead city."
Many disciples were slightly intimidated by Lin Fei's words and felt that he was exaggerating. However, Lin Fei was the Chief, and they had to follow his orders. So they followed Lin Fei and quickly headed to the refugee camp.
At this mont, inside the refugee camp, the people from the Nine Profound Sect were distributing porridge. Many refugees were looking forward to it and hoping to eat the porridge as soon as possible.
Suddenly, a dense sound of footsteps could be heard. Large groups of people from the Nine Profound Sect and Haizhou City surrounded the camp.
There were about twenty or so refugees in the camp, and their faces changed drastically when they saw this scene.
"This is bad, we've been discovered."
"What do we do now?"
"We've already entered the city. Let's break out while the encirclent hasn't ford yet."
"Break out and rush towards the city gate, preferably opening the city gate to release the signal for attacking the city. When our people arrive, Haizhou City will be ours!"
At once, these twenty or so refugees began to move.
"Swish, swish, swish."
All of them were agile and their haggard appearances seed to be disguised using so kind of disguise technique. These people were all insiders of the pirates outside the city.
The insider pirates began to break out in various directions. The people of Haizhou City were not well prepared, and these pirates were powerful, with many of them being acquired martial artists.
It was not an easy task to stop them. There were even acquired sixth level experts among them! Fortunately, Lin Fei led the disciples of the Nine Profound Sect and arrived in ti.
Upon seeing this, Lin Fei imdiately ordered, "Kill!"
Imdiately, twenty Inner Disciples of the Nine Profound Sect each displayed their martial arts and blocked the pirates.
Mo Wen also witnessed this scene, with cold sweat running down his forehead. He actually let the pirates into the city, almost causing harm to the entire city!
"Chief, I'm guilty..." Mo Wen knelt in front of Lin Fei with an ashad face.
"Of course, you're guilty. But it's not too late to make up for it before a major disaster occurs. Go, we can't let a pirate escape!"
"Yes, Chief." Mo Wen gritted his teeth, holding the big saber in his hand and rushing towards the pirates.
However, Mo Wen seed to have encountered a powerful pirate. The opponent's figure flickered like a ghost and instantly appeared in front of Mo Wen. Then, the pirate swung his short saber in his hand.
"Spurt!"
Mo Wen scread in pain. His hand was cut off by the pirate's short saber. However, the pirate did not seem to want to kill Mo Wen. Instead, he charged directly towards Lin Fei's direction.
Now, there were people surrounding them everywhere. Only a few people were in Lin Fei's direction, which seed to be a weak point.
The pirate was extrely fast. Almost in the blink of an eye, he was in front of Lin Fei.
"Be careful, Senior Brother Lin, this pirate is at the Acquired Sixth Level..." The Inner Disciples of the Nine Profound Sect loudly warned. However, the pirate was too fast. They didn't have ti to intervene.
The sharp short saber of the pirate was already within reach. It seed that in the next mont, it would cut Lin Fei's throat open.
"Clang."
A clear sound. The Star Saber behind Lin Fei instantly fell into his hand.
"Swoosh."
Lin Fei swung his saber.
Thirteen saber shadows covered the pirate like a sky-shrouding blanket. The sharp saber edge made the pirate's soul tremble.
"You..."
The pirate's eyes widened. He imdiately placed his short saber horizontally in front of his chest.
"Boom."
A muffled sound. The pirate's short saber broke with a "click" sound. At the sa ti, the montum of Lin Fei's Star saber did not diminish. The pirate's body was instantly cut in half by Lin Fei's Star Saber.
Suddenly, blood splattered.
An Acquired Sixth Level pirate couldn't even block one strike from Lin Fei.
Both the person and the saber were cut in half by a single saber strike!
