Such a small, short saber had actually consecutively chopped through two wooden walls, and walls made of special wood at that. The saber blade carried the remaining force as it slashed down on the man in white.
"RIP!!"
The sound of cloth ripping rang out. Lu Sheng's eyes were bloodshot as he chopped the man in white into two.
The saber spun around, and with a swish, it sliced the wooden table on the side into two.
His eyes swept across the room, Black Fury Skill's aura circulating at high speed all over his body. A ferocious and tyrannical aura surged in his chest, yet he could not vent it.
"BAM!"
The square table in his way was kicked away, smashing into the wall and falling to the ground. But he still felt someone spying on him.
"You're courting death!!" Lu Sheng roared madly. Black Tiger Saber Technique's Tiger Fury slashed out.
"Get out here!!"
The saber light smashed into the wall in front of him like a muffled thunder. The black tiger roared, and there was a loud crash.
"RUMBLE!!"
The entire half of the wall was shattered by Lu Sheng's Black Fury Skill augmented move, turning into countless black wooden shards that splattered everywhere.
Behind the third broken wall, a woman in a white dress with her long hair covering her face appeared before him.
Song Zhenguo and Jun 'er were huddled in a corner, staring at her with faces full of despair and fear. Unexpectedly, they were bumped into by Lu Sheng.
The two of them were stunned at first, but when they recognized Lu Sheng, they were overjoyed. They watched as he charged out like a god descending from the heavens towards the woman in white.
Song Zhenguo was about to get up and go over when Jun 'er suddenly pulled him back.
"Something's wrong! Wait! " Jun 'er's mouth was bleeding. She had no idea how she was injured, but her beautiful eyes were fixed on Lu Sheng, and she could clearly sense that something was wrong with him.
"What's wrong? That's Brother Lu, it's Brother Yue Sheng. I didn't expect him to be so strong and powerful. He must be here to save me! "Song Zhenguo's spirits rose as he explained hurriedly.
"Take a closer look!" Jun 'er reminded him in a low voice.
Song Zhenguo was taken aback. He quickly looked over and realized that Lu Sheng's condition wasn't right.
"Hee, hee, hee …" The woman's figure flew backward, and a large number of green flames flew out from both sides. They were like human heads, and they flew towards Lu Sheng.
Dozens of green flames covered almost all the angles he could dodge.
Lu Sheng's Black Fury Skill surged to its fullest, his heart filled with a brutal, murderous intent. The short saber in his hand vibrated violently, and a large amount of inner Qi concentrated and surged into his right arm. He swung the saber forward.
ROAR!!
A deafening tiger roar resounded.
The silver sword light actually formed a silver light that resembled a giant axe and collided head-on with the green flames that were flying towards it.
Pu pu pu pu …
A series of popping sounds could be heard, and a large amount of green fire was broken and scattered, landing in the surroundings, igniting the hanging red lanterns in a few moments. The flames quickly spread along the carpet and leather.
"World of Martial Artists? Dual internal and external cultivation? You have some skill. "The woman let out a shrill laugh. Her body floated up as light as a feather and waved her hand.
Instantly, a series of black spheres flew in from the large hole in the wall of the wing room. Dozens of spheres smashed towards Lu Sheng before he could react.
"Tiger's Might!!" Lu Sheng gripped the saber with both hands. His large body and the short saber formed a sharp contrast. But the short saber was vibrating at high speed, and as the flames reflected the light, it became brighter and brighter, more and more blinding.
"Whoosh!"
A gust of wind that resembled a giant tiger swept up. Lu Sheng's entire body pounced forward. The explosive power of this short distance even surpassed the speed at which he had chased after the white-robed man.
His figure dodged continuously, and he actually managed to evade all the spheres. Then, as fast as lightning, his saber chopped down on the woman's neck.
"Pu!"
Her head flew. Lu Sheng swung his saber in a backhand chop.
"Puchi."
The white-robed woman was sliced diagonally into two, and she let out an ear-piercing shriek.
The fire grew larger and larger. Soon, the beams of the wing room were burnt and collapsed with a bang.
After attacking with all his might, Lu Sheng did not have any energy left. He was smashed by the beam. The surrounding fire seemed to have a life of its own as it engulfed him. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared.
"Lu Sheng!!!"
At this moment, in a corner of the wing room, Song Zhenguo and Jun 'er rushed out in an attempt to save him. But it was too late.
The beam smashed down, smashing right on top of Lu Sheng's head. The fire engulfed his entire body in an instant. His figure was no longer visible.
"Run!" Jun 'er held onto Song Zhenguo with all her might.
"Yue Sheng! Brother Lu!! "Song Zhenguo roared.
"You two should worry about yourselves."
The white-robed woman from before appeared again. Her body was completely unharmed. She floated lightly beside the fire in the wing room. Her eyes under her hair stared coldly at the two of them.
Song Zhenguo and Jun 'er hurriedly ran out the door, not daring to look back.
"It's me! I'm the one who harmed Brother Lu! "Song Zhenguo's eyes were filled with tears.
"Let's get out of here first!" Jun 'er said decisively.
"Whoosh!"
The white-robed woman flew out from behind and chased after the two of them.
"Trying to escape?!" she screamed.
"Roar!!"
At this moment, a roar came from the fire behind the woman. A strong figure, who was still burning, pushed away the beam and leaped out of the fire.
Large amounts of sparks and debris exploded. A large hand grabbed her from the fire.
"You!!?" The white-robed woman turned around in horror.
She saw Lu Sheng suddenly pounce forward. His blade swept up the flames like a huge red wave. He chopped down on the top of her head.
"Whoosh!"
The woman was once again split into two by Lu Sheng.
But her body that had been split into two quickly fused back together. She was restored to her original state in midair.
"A mere mortal! How dare you … "she screamed, her black hair flying wildly. She crossed her hands and made a strange gesture. The white robe around her suddenly split into strips of white cloth which flew towards Lu Sheng.
"DIE!!" The strips of white cloth shot down, each one piercing through the air with a shrill whistle.
Lu Sheng's eyes were bloodshot. His clothes were still covered in unextinguished flames. White smoke was still rising from some parts of his body.
After a series of exhaustion, Black Fury Skill had allowed him to regain some clarity of mind.
Feeling a large area of his body burned, Lu Sheng quickly accelerated the circulation of Black Tiger Jade Crane Skill in his body. The strengthened Black Tiger Jade Crane Skill had a strong self-healing ability. Very soon, he could feel the scorching heat in his body lessen considerably.
But with this change of inner Qi, Black Tiger Jade Crane Skill and Black Fury Skill circulated at high speed simultaneously. Lu Sheng instantly felt an unusual change occurring within his body.
Two hot currents circulated within his body at the same time. One was violent, the other tranquil.
He raised his saber and stared fixedly at the woman in midair. Suddenly, a strange feeling arose in his heart.
Two streams of inner Qi, one on the left and one on the right, flowed into his arms respectively. Then, they converged and coiled around the short saber in his hands. They formed a massive and ferocious force.
Following this force, Lu Sheng's body arched slightly.
The black tiger and immortal crane visualization images suddenly merged into one in his mind, spiraling and entangling.
As if blessed by fortune, the short saber in Lu Sheng's hand exploded into a ball of red light in an instant.
"ROAR! SCREECH! "
It was as if a giant tiger and an immortal crane's high-pitched roar had overlapped and soared into the sky at the same time.
Amidst the tiger's roar and the crane's cry, Lu Sheng leaped up. The saber light pierced straight into the woman's body.
"KILL!!"
"BAM!!"
This time, the massive force did not cut the woman in half. Instead, her body exploded into a large number of fragments. Accompanied by a shower of sparks, the fragments were ignited and fell into the fire, silent.
"BAM!"
Lu Sheng landed heavily on the deck, causing the entire pleasure boat to shake. He panted violently for a while before he slowly straightened himself. Lowering his head, he gently picked up a purple jade hairpin from the deck. This was the only thing that the woman had dropped earlier.
"Brother Song. Looks like you're quite lucky with women. You're completely fine even after that. " Lu Sheng looked at Song Zhenguo and Xiao Jun on the deck not far away. He grinned, revealing a mouthful of snow-white teeth.
"Lu … Brother Lu …?" Song Zhenguo had witnessed the entire battle just now. He was already beginning to doubt whether this new brother of his was even human.
"Let's go find Brother Chen. We should disembark. Otherwise, we won't be able to leave if we're late. "Lu Sheng raised his hand and saw that his clothes were already burnt and stuck to his skin. Fortunately, his Black Fury Skill was very resistant to heat. During the intense battle, his movements were too fierce and fast, so the flames on his body did not continue to burn in a vicious cycle. Therefore, there were not many burns.
"That … that female ghost, she's gone just like that?" Song Zhenguo asked in shock.
"I don't know, but she should be gone." Lu Sheng shook his head. He looked at Xiao Jun.
Xiao Jun smiled, returning a gentle and grateful smile.
The three of them quickly found the unconscious Chen Jiaorong in a corner of the cabin. Song Zhenguo carried him on his back and the four of them disembarked along the pier. They had just disembarked when the pleasure boat behind them was instantly engulfed in flames. The flames were clearly visible on Cypress Pine Lake.
What was strange was that they now realized that they were no longer on the river near Mountain-Edge City. Instead, they were on a riverside in the wilderness.
The four of them disembarked and surveyed their surroundings. Surprisingly, they did not see any signs of human habitation. Instead, they were in a wilderness overgrown with wild grass.
Lu Sheng found Song Zhenguo's jacket and changed into it.
After he tore off his clothes, only a small portion of his skin was burnt. Most of it was merely charred black. His hair, beard, and other fine hairs were all burnt off. His entire person looked like a big, bald egg.
They watched as the pleasure boat, engulfed in flames, slowly sank into the river and disappeared. Only then did Lu Sheng look at Xiao Jun. Song Zhenguo also looked at Jun 'er. They both needed an explanation. An explanation that only Xiao Jun would know.
What the hell was going on?
Jun 'er saw that the two of them were looking at each other. She lowered her head and pursed her lips in silence.
"Don't look at me. I don't know much about the pleasure boat either. The only thing I know is that we're no ordinary pleasure boat. There's a very mysterious and powerful boss on board. Most of the pleasure boats on Cypress Pine Lake are under his control. Our pleasure boat also belongs to him in name. That woman has always been in charge of our boat's bow. It's just that I didn't know that she … she actually … "Jun 'er shook her head lightly and sighed.
"Let's talk when we get back," Lu Sheng looked at the empty river. "Who knows where we are?"
"I'll do it," Song Zhenguo smiled bitterly. "If I'm not wrong, this should be the lower reaches of Cypress Pine Lake outside Mountain-Edge City. It's more than five kilometers away from Mountain-Edge City. We just have to follow the river upstream. "
He looked at the charred Lu Sheng and reached out to stop Jun 'er. Suddenly, he bowed deeply to Lu Sheng.
"This time, it was I who nearly cost Yue Sheng and Jiao Rong their lives. Because of me and Jun 'er, I nearly dragged the two of you into this. "
"I'm afraid … this matter isn't over yet," Lu Sheng shook his head slightly at him.
Song Zhenguo was stunned. Suddenly, he saw Lu Sheng's gaze fall on Jun 'er beside him.
He quickly turned to look at Jun 'er. To his horror, her originally solid body was slowly turning translucent.
