Bang, bang, bang…
In less than half a minute, the four or five burly men were sent flying, landing with dull thuds.
“Those who try to kill me never end well,” Li Feng’s figure emerged, a cold smirk curling his lips as he looked at the lifeless bodies of the Du Clan members nearby.
He had no mercy for those who sought his life. In his eyes, there were only enemies and friends, no room for compassion. Besides, these men had been specifically waiting for him.
“Du Clan, let’s see if you’re a dragon’s lair or a tiger’s den.”
With those words, Li Feng shot off into the distance.
“Stop! Who are you?”
After traveling just a few hundred meters, another group blocked his path.
“I’m Li Feng,” he replied coldly.
“Li Feng! Quick, report to the higher-ups! Li Feng has appeared!” The leader’s face changed, urgently ordering his men.
“Report? Too late.” A chilling glint of killing intent flashed in Li Feng’s eyes as a large blade appeared in his hand. With a swift motion, he struck.
Bang, bang, bang…
Dull thuds echoed as the men were all slain by Li Feng.
“It seems the Du Clan is hunting me.” Looking at the bodies, Li Feng’s expression grew serious. If the first group was a coincidence, this second group was no accident.
Was it because he killed the first attackers?
Li Feng sneered. They tried to kill him, and he fought back—who could they blame? But since the Du Clan wanted his life, didn’t that give him even more reason to strike back?
However, with the Du Clan after him, he couldn’t let them find him. After all, Du Wu was still with them, and after decades of development, who knew how many experts the Du Clan had?
“I need to infiltrate Kunyang Town and figure out the Du Clan’s situation.” Li Feng rubbed his chin, a spark of determination in his eyes.
Tap, tap, tap…
Footsteps approached from nearby.
“Someone’s coming.” Li Feng’s eyes flashed, and he vanished from the spot. Moments later, a voice rang out.
“Quick, quick! There’s movement ahead. Go check it out!”
Soon, a team of over a dozen appeared where Li Feng had been, their faces paling at the sight of the bodies.
“Damn it, it’s the third squad. They’re all dead.”
“From the marks, they just died.”
“Who killed the third squad?”
“Whoever dares kill our Du Clan members is courting death!”
The Du Clan members’ faces darkened, a sense of shared grief washing over them as they looked at the bodies.
“Leader, what do we do?” They turned to the man in the middle.
“Report to the higher-ups immediately. Everyone, stay alert. The attacker might still be nearby,” the man said gravely.
At his words, the Du Clan members’ expressions shifted, gripping their weapons and warily scanning their surroundings.
A quarter of an hour later, Wild Fox arrived with his men.
“Damn it, who dares kill our Du Clan members? They’re tired of living!” Wild Fox’s voice preceded his arrival.
“Lord Wild Fox.” The leader hurried forward, recounting the scene.
Wild Fox listened, glancing at the bodies, his pupils narrowing.
“Lord Wild Fox, do you know who killed the third squad?” the leader asked nervously. The third and fourth squads were only a few hundred meters apart, connected by the Du Clan’s special methods. Yet, from the third squad losing contact to their arrival, only two or three minutes had passed. Who could kill so many in such a short time?
Wild Fox turned, giving him a cold look. “Are you questioning me?”
“I wouldn’t dare,” the leader stammered, lowering his head.
“Lord Wild Fox, Lord Wild Fox…” Another man ran up, reporting, “The second squad ahead is all dead too.”
“What?” Wild Fox’s face changed. Losing two squads in one go was a blow even the Du Clan couldn’t easily bear.
“The second and third squads were only a few hundred meters apart. How is this possible…” The leader beside him was incredulous, breaking out in a cold sweat. If the attacker had targeted them, the consequences…
“From now on, squads will move in groups of three to guard the exits of the Hundred Thousand Mountains,” Wild Fox ordered coldly.
“Yes, sir.”
Wild Fox turned to leave. Losing two squads today gave him a sense of crisis. Though he didn’t know who was responsible, he felt it was tied to Li Feng. After all, the Zheng family of Zhongyuan Province had sent so many experts to kill Li Feng, so he was no ordinary man.
If it was Li Feng, it meant he wasn’t in the Hundred Thousand Mountains—or he had already left.
“Return to Kunyang Town immediately.” Wild Fox felt this was no small matter and needed to report to Wild Leopard.
His team of over thirty moved quickly toward Kunyang Town at his command.
Swoosh…
Unnoticed by Wild Fox’s group, as they hurried toward Kunyang Town, a figure flashed behind them. The last Du Clan member was silently dragged into the nearby woods. A minute later, a figure emerged, catching up to the group.
This was none other than Li Feng, who had been hiding nearby. Recognizing Wild Fox as the one who tried to kill him outside Kunyang Town days ago, Li Feng had to restrain his urge to kill him on the spot.
His goal wasn’t just Wild Fox. He didn’t want to alert the enemy yet, at least not until he reached Kunyang Town.
So, as Wild Fox’s group returned, Li Feng followed, eliminating the last member, swapping clothes, and blending in.
Wild Fox moved quickly, arriving at Kunyang Town’s south gate in a quarter of an hour.
“Lord Wild Fox.” The Du Clan members guarding the gate saluted.
“Strengthen the defenses,” Wild Fox ordered, entering the town.
This is Kunyang Town?
Following Wild Fox, Li Feng observed the town. It was an ordinary mountain town, unremarkable without the Du Clan’s presence.
Along the way, he frequently saw Du Clan patrol teams, surprising him. In his mind, the Du Clan was an underground force, yet they had guards at the town’s entrance and patrols on the streets.
This showed the Du Clan wasn’t just an underground force—it was the town’s overlord.
Li Feng’s estimation of the Du Clan rose. Though just a small town, controlling it like their own domain showed their strength.
Glancing at Wild Fox hurrying ahead, Li Feng decided not to leave yet. Wild Fox was likely heading to the Du Clan’s headquarters, a perfect chance to investigate.
Soon, Wild Fox reached a cluster of villas.
Located near the Hundred Thousand Mountains, the area was free of industrial pollution, with fresh air and beautiful scenery. The villas were built against a lushly forested hill, each about fifty meters apart.
Li Feng was surprised. He hadn’t expected such a luxurious villa complex in Kunyang Town.
At the entrance, he saw numerous patrol teams, likely indicating the Du Clan’s headquarters.
Wild Fox soon arrived at a villa—a two-story European-style building surrounded by a wall with a single gate, guarded by over a dozen armed men.
Seeing this, Li Feng was stunned. His spiritual sense told him the villa’s defenses were complex, with countless hidden guards.
Moreover, he sensed several powerful martial auras within the villa.
“The Du Clan…”
A glint flashed in Li Feng’s eyes. What he’d seen gave him a clear picture of the Du Clan’s strength, possibly surpassing the Black Stone Gang of Tianhai City.
This thought startled him. Was the Du Clan really just a small-town underground force?
“Wait here,” Wild Fox ordered coldly, entering the villa.
Li Feng watched him go, his eyes flickering as he prepared to find a way to sneak in. Just then, a hand clapped his shoulder, and a voice spoke.
“Brother, who are you? I don’t recognize you.”
