Three Moons Slash

Zhao Xiaobao stared at the master who bullied him day and night, stunned. He suddenly felt a sob well up in his throat and could no longer hold back his tears. They flowed as he sobbed, nodding vigorously as he rubbed his tears away.

The Zhan gentleman was both shocked and surprised. With the flick of his other wrist, he was now holding a dagger and thrust it right at Li Chengfeng.

Li Chengfeng huffed. Although he was famous for being a swindler across Cheng'an City, not many knew that he had also been taught the Cleansing Moon Sect's martial arts and he had never missed training once!

He pressed the Zhan man's hand downwards, shoved his hand with the dagger towards himself, then slammed his palm into the Zhan man's chest.

He'd grabbed Zhao Xiaobao twice! Li Chengfeng must make him at least cough up blood!

However, just as he shoved his palm forwards, the middle-aged servant who was advising the man grabbed the Zhan man's sleeve back to pull him away, meeting Li Chengfeng's palm with his own. The impact was heavy.

The bustling crowd heard a dull thud as the air around Li Chengfeng shook. He dug his feet hard into the ground, causing the stone slabs to crack.

The servant was pushed back slightly from the momentum. He stared at Li Chengfeng in shock, for he did not expect such a young man to be so skilled!

Not just the servant, even Liu Sumei and Little Bell who were watching from upstairs had their eyes widened, covering their mouths with one hand.

Little Bell was speechless for a moment. She quickly smiled towards Liu Sumei, “Miss, this Mr Li's martial arts skills aren't bad at all.”

Liu Sumei glared at her but turned to look at Li Chengfeng. Her eyes were filled with worry, though with a hint of softness.

Little Bell looked down, touching her chin and curiously regarding Zhao Xiaobao. She couldn't help but giggle at Xiaobao, who was 'crying beautifully'. “This man is prettier than a girl, and he cries more than one too! Can't believe there are men like that!”

As she spoke, she turned to Liu Sumei, “Sigh, Miss, do you see him? Eh?”

Liu Sumei seemed to be staring off into s.p.a.ce, her eyes locked unto Li Chengfeng. Little Bell shook her hand. “Miss, what's the matter?”

Liu Sumei snapped back to reality and forced a smile. “Nothing, it's just… this reminded me of something that happened. What did you say?”

Little Bell was about to speak but saw that the servant was regarding Li Chengfeng from head to toe. With a slow nod, he said, “You're very young but have already attained such heights in martial arts. Not bad, not bad.”

The servant took one step forward. Li Chengfeng saw how the bent-back, timid-looking middle-aged man suddenly looked up with lightning in his eyes. With a step forward, his joints crackled as yellow light wrapped his hand. The yellow light condensed into tiny swirls, twisting like vortexes around his arm.

It seemed like this servant had vast hidden powers after all!

Now that the Zhan gentleman was protected behind the other servant, he roared hoa.r.s.ely out of humiliation, “Kill him!”

The servant turned to look at his master, his gaze unwilling. He sighed, “It's a pity!”

Li Chengfeng snickered coldly. “Yeah, it is a pity! You're such a powerful man, yet you're willing to be his dog! It's a pity, a pity!”

The servant grinned. “It is an honour to be the Zhan family's dog!”

Li Chengfeng bent his knees and pounced directly at the servant.

The servant looked at Li Chengfeng with pity and contempt in his eyes, as if looking at a moth flying into a flame. Li Chengfeng was nothing to him.

He lifted an arm and the hand with the yellow currents twisted into a mudra. An incantation appeared between his fingers instantly. He pointed at Li Chengfeng, causing the scripture to burn up in flames, then yelled, “Lock!”
