With a roll, Lin Sheng's elbow hit a wooden plank on the ground outside with a crisp crack.
The plank was smashed into pieces. His elbow was also scratched by the barbs on it, leaving a bloody gash.
Usually, he would have screamed in pain, but now he had no time to breathe.
* Bam!! *
In the house behind him, a large number of black threads smashed through the window frames like metal threads and surged toward him.
Along the way, the black threads spun and danced, and everything they touched was quickly dyed black, disintegrated, and turned into black powder that merged with the black threads.
Lin Sheng ran all the way, and his destination was none other than the nearest gate of Blackfeather City!
Behind him, the gravel on the street was smashed by the black threads, making muffled sounds.
Wherever the black threads went, be it the stones or the road, everything was instantly pulverized into black powder and merged with it.
After running for a while, just as Lin Sheng rushed into the gate, he glanced back, and his scalp went numb. He immediately threw himself forward and rolled.
* Bam!! *
On the ground in front of the gate behind him, a large number of black threads fell in an instant.
These black threads, which looked like black hair, were extremely hard, and pierced through the ground, plunging deep into the ground.
If he had not rolled forward just now, he would have become a beehive by now.
Lin Sheng got up, and without a word, he ran again out of Blackfeather City.
Behind him, the large number of black threads circled and danced in the air like a living thing, but did not enter the gate.
Realizing that there was no target to chase, the black threads slowly retracted and quickly went back into the house from which they came.
In an instant, everything returned to normal.
Lin Sheng sat in the middle of the carriageway outside the city, sweating profusely and panting like a bull.
He could already feel his vision blurring, and he was about to wake up from his dream.
The exploration of Blackfeather City had failed after all.
Blackfeather City looked dead and quiet on the surface, but the danger inside was indescribable.
"Next time, I'll have to find a better chance … I don't believe it …" Lin Sheng gritted his teeth and sat on the ground.
The huge Blackfeather City was full of holes and gaps, and the city walls were leaking air everywhere. He did not believe that he could not find a safe hole to enter.
At the very most, he would risk his life to find the Warren Temple and obtain the limit breaking technique from there.
His vision gradually blurred, and Lin Sheng's vision quickly darkened.
Di di di, di di di di.
The alarm clock on the bedside table kept ringing.
Lin Sheng opened his eyes and sat up on the bed. He exhaled softly and reached out to remove the blanket.
It was already bright outside, and the alarm clock showed that it was nine o 'clock sharp.
"I failed … But this is only the beginning. Take it slow, there's no rush …"
He rolled out of bed, took off his pajamas, and put on his clothes and jacket.
Then, in front of the wardrobe mirror, he casually combed his messy hair to make it look more pleasing to the eye.
Finally, he took out the long sword he had borrowed from the club from the wardrobe, slung it on his back, and walked out of the bedroom.
The longsword was stored in a black sword case that Xia Yin had sponsored out of friendship. It was pitch-black on the outside and looked like an ordinary zither case.
Just as Lin Sheng walked out of the room, he heard voices coming from the living room. It sounded like a girl reciting a foreign language.
He paused and walked into the living room to take a look.
A girl about fifteen or sixteen years old with short hair, wearing a white shirt and a red checkered knee-length skirt. She had delicate features and was sitting on the sofa at home, reciting words.
There was plenty of light in the morning, and the girl's skin was as white as snow, refreshing and pleasant.
"Brother Chenchen, you're up?" The girl saw Lin Sheng enter the living room and quickly stood up, revealing a sweet smile.
"Lil Xi? When did you get here? Have you had breakfast? "
Lin Sheng was a little surprised.
The girl's name was An Xi, and everyone in the family called her Lil Xi. She was his cousin, the daughter of his aunt. Because they lived near each other, they would occasionally drop by.
An Xi could be considered the closest to him among his relatives. But perhaps because their personalities were not compatible, the relationship between the two was average.
"Yes, I have. I just made some chili sauce at home, and Mom asked me to bring some over to Aunt and Uncle. But I forgot to bring my keys when I went out … "An Xi smiled embarrassedly.
"You're also in Grade Nine … so hardworking …" Lin Sheng sighed and glanced at the textbook in her hand.
The textbook was as thick as a magazine, and the cover was old. Obviously, it had been flipped through a lot.
"Brother Chenchen, where are you going? Aunt and Uncle went to work, and they asked me to eat with you later. "
An Xi saw the long black box on Lin Sheng's back, which looked like a piano case, and quickly asked.
"I have something to do, and I'll be back in a while. Just stay at home and study. "Lin Sheng couldn't explain that he was going to the club to coach swordsmanship.
His progress in the club was too fast, and he had directly become a coach. This level of swordsmanship couldn't be explained without a long period of practice.
But his family knew that he couldn't practice swordsmanship for a long time in the past.
So Lin Sheng chose to hide it for now.
"Brother, are you going to play?" An Xi's eyes flashed. "Or are you going to the Internet cafe?"
"…" Lin Sheng was speechless. "Okay, no more nonsense. I'm leaving. Take care of the house."
"Okay …" An Xi nodded.
Lin Sheng carried the sword case, changed into his shoes, took a thermos cup and a towel, and slowly opened the door to leave.
An Xi quietly watched Lin Sheng close the door, and heard the echo of his footsteps.
Sitting on the sofa, she planned to continue memorizing words.
Suddenly, she saw the breakfast money left by her aunt on the living room table.
"Brother went out without breakfast, and he didn't bring any money." She didn't think much of it, and quickly grabbed the money and ran to the balcony. She wanted to look out the window, find Lin Sheng, and call him back.
Suddenly, she paused, and her eyes fell on Lin Sheng at the entrance of the community downstairs.
At the entrance of the community, unexpectedly, Lin Sheng walked forward slowly, and a young girl wearing sunglasses greeted him, and the two began to talk.
The girl was dressed fashionably, and she had a good figure. Behind her were two tall and strong men.
The two didn't talk for long, and then they got on a bus and left quickly.
An Xi looked away, and a trace of curiosity flashed in her eyes.
According to her understanding of this cousin, he had a mediocre personality, and there was nothing special about him. He didn't have any advantages in terms of looks or height.
The only impression she had was that his skin was a little whiter. His studies were just so-so, and he didn't have much of a presence.
Her original impression of him was that he was just an ordinary person, but now it seemed that … he seemed to have some unknown social circle.
The girl just now had a hot figure. Although she was wearing sunglasses, from the other parts of her body that were exposed, she was definitely not ugly.
The clothes she was wearing were also of high quality, and they looked like hunting clothes, which highlighted her exquisite figure.
Usually, these kinds of girls would have a social circle with handsome men and beautiful women who were also dressed fashionably. Why would she walk with her cousin?
An Xi had such a classmate in her class, so she had a deep impression of him. She knew that it was difficult to hang out with people who were too different in appearance.
"Brother Chenchen, you don't look as honest as usual …" An Xi was a little curious about Lin Sheng.
