Chapter 37 - Kill for the Good (1/2)

The middle-aged man looked at the young man who was lying on the floor and kept a distance of more than 10 meters. He didn’t rush over to help him.

“Uncle, help me. I ran into a Xiong Beast and broke my leg when I tried to escape. Help me please, I have money, I can give you money.”

The young man who was lying on the ground pleaded for help when he saw a passerby.

“Kiddo, who are you? You are at the depths of the An Nan mountains, why are you here?”

“I’m a disciple of the Mu family in An Nan city. I came to the An Nan mountains to train and found a hundred-year-old ginseng. However, I encountered a Xiong Beast. When I was being chased about, I fled here and broke my leg. Uncle, please help me. I-I have a ginseng and I have money too. If you help me back to the Mu family, I will compensate you.”

The young man pleaded in pain.

“What?! You have a hundred-year-old ginseng?”

The middle-aged man was overjoyed when he heard his words, and there was a trace of greed in his eyes. A hundred-year-old ginseng could be worth thousands of gold coins, so it was considered a huge windfall.

“Yeah, if you save me, I will give you half of the share after I sell the ginseng.”

“Haha, okay. I’ll save you now, don’t move.”

The middle-aged man was overjoyed but there was a murderous intent in his eyes. He walked slowly towards the young man with a sword in his hand.

When he was three or four meters away from the young man, he dashed forward suddenly, his sword aiming at the young man.

“Kiddo, it’ll be best for you to stay here and feed yourself to the wolves! I will help you sell your ginseng!”

The middle-aged man grinned widely and struck with his sword.

“Hey!”

However, at the same time, at the top of a rock that was several meters high, a short-haired teenager jumped down and struck the middle-aged man with a knife.

The face of the middle-aged man turned pale instantly. He stopped his original strike abruptly and raised his sword to block the attack.

Clang!

His sword blocked the attack from the short-haired young man and the impact caused the young man to do a somersault before landing on the ground.

Swoosh!

However, at the same time, Mu Feng, who was lying on the ground, pulled out a dagger attached behind his calf and did a kip-up. He then stabbed it into the middle-aged man’s chest.

The middle-aged man was stunned. The attack was so sudden that he couldn’t dodge it, but luckily, his body was leaned slightly. As a result, the dagger stabbed into his chest but not his heart.

“Ah…!”

The middle-aged man shouted angrily and struck towards Mu Feng with his sword. Mu Feng, who managed to get a hit, retreated immediately and dodged the attack.

Deng deng deng!

The middle-aged man took a few steps back and looked at the two teenagers in surprise and anger.

He never thought that he himself who worked as a mercenary for more than 10 years would actually die into the hands of two teenagers.

Khoff! Khak!

With the sword in his hand, he spat out a mouthful of blood. The wound on his chest was bleeding profusely. His arm was already heavily injured, and to make things worse, he was stabbed in the chest by a dagger.

“Kiddo, how dare you to set me up…!”

The middle-aged man shouted furiously.

“Right back at you. Didn’t you want to kill me as well? If you weren’t greedy, do you think that I would have the chance?”

Mu Feng said with a cold smile.

The middle-aged man was both surprised and angry. He struck at them with his sword.

A gush of gold colored Sword Qi struck towards Mu Feng and Mu Kuang.

Mu Feng and Mu Kuang dodged away quickly, causing the Sword Qi to strike the rocks, leaving a deep cut.

By attacking with Vitality, the wound of the middle-aged man was further opened, causing him to spit out another mouthful of blood. However, he turned around and ran away immediately.

Currently, he was in a bad position as he was seriously injured. Although these two young men seemed to only reach the Tong Mai level, it was enough to kill him. Thus, his best chance was to run and escape.
