Lu Fei remembered the difference between a flood dragon and a dragon. One of the differences was that the horns on a flood dragon's head did not have bifurcations. However, the horns on its head had bifurcations. This flood dragon's hair and beard were all white. It had not succeeded in evolving into a flood dragon even after spending its whole life.
Lu Fei seemed to understand what this flood dragon meant. It must have relied on eating the Red Fire Fruit to evolve into a flood dragon. However, even this old flood dragon had not succeeded. How could this one succeed? Lu Fei thought to himself that since he had already obtained one of its fruits, he might as well give this one to it. After all, he wasn't lacking anything. There were plenty of quests in the system, and there were plenty of treasures. He threw the Red Fire Fruit into the flood dragon's mouth. It swallowed it in one gulp. Immediately, its body heated up. It swam happily in the lake and carried Lu Fei to the shore of the small lake.
Lu Fei leaped onto the shore and waved at the flood dragon. "Go ahead. I'm leaving."
The flood dragon swam around in the water. After watching Lu Fei leave, it dived into the water and disappeared.
Lu Fei hummed a tune as he walked in the forest. This time, he had successfully obtained the Red Fire Fruit. Not only had his power increased, but the System had also rewarded him with 2000 points. He exchanged for a set of decent clothes from the System. Seeing that he was short of money, he exchanged for 100 taels of gold. He went around Mount Hua and went to the inn in the small town at the foot of Mount Hua. Although seven or eight days had passed, the coachman was very trustworthy and had been waiting for him there.
He asked around for Ma Chao's whereabouts, but no one knew about him. Even his father, Ma Teng, did not know about him. Lu Fei was puzzled. He thought about it carefully. When Ma Teng was young, he was just a woodcutter. He was not famous yet. Perhaps Ma Chao was not even born yet. Even if he was not, he could go there and get familiar with him.
Lu Fei decided to go to Fufeng Maoling to try his luck.
Just as he got up and was about to leave, he suddenly felt a familiar aura. Combining the footsteps and vital signs of the person, the person who tried to assassinate him that day appeared in his mind. Lu Fei immediately pulled out the Damascus Iron Blade on his back. However, the person did not seem to be targeting him. After passing by the door, he stopped outside another private room.
"Since you're already here, come in and have a seat."
Lu Fei could vaguely hear a man's voice coming from another room, followed by the sound of a door being pushed open. Lu Fei channeled his inner energy to his ears and heard a voice he had never heard before. "Han, I was delayed by something a while ago and allowed you to escape so far away. You won't be so lucky this time."
Lu Fei knew that this unfamiliar man's voice should belong to the person who tried to assassinate him. It seemed like this Han was also one of the people he wanted to assassinate.
Han couldn't help but laugh. "You've failed and you still have so many excuses. You talk too much nonsense. Let's do it." Following that, the sound of swords and sabers clashing rang out, and the door of the house shattered. Screams came from the corridor. Lu Fei opened the door and saw a young man dressed in a dark green robe fighting with a man wrapped in black. Both of them were experts in swordsmanship. Lu Fei glanced over and saw light and shadows everywhere. He didn't know how many sword shadows they had created.
That young man in the dark green robe should be the Han mentioned by the man in black. At this time, all the people in the private room had escaped. The two of them were fighting back and forth in the corridor.
Lu Fei held the Damascus Steel Saber in his hand. When Han stabbed out millions of sword lights, Lu Fei rushed toward the man in black and slashed his saber at the man in black's back. This coordination was perfect. The man in black was extremely powerful. He forced Han back with a single slash and suddenly soared into the sky, breaking through the roof and escaping far away.
Han's figure was tall, and his face was angular. He looked at Lu Fei with a pair of bright eyes and said, "Brother, thank you for your help. I still haven't asked for your name."
Lu Fei reported his name. Han seemed to have heard him and said in surprise, "You're the one who killed Lu Zhen, Lu Pengju?"
Lu Fei was stunned. "You're quite well-informed."
Han revealed a trace of a smile and said, "Brother Lu is too modest. Right now, who in the world doesn't know the name Lu Fei, Lu Pengju? Let's find a place to have a drink."
The two of them jumped down from the back window at the same time and found a place where there was no one around to sneak out of the courtyard wall. Han said, "Looks like Brother Lu also has enemies everywhere. Otherwise, why would you hide like me?" Finished speaking, he took off his clothes and flipped them over to put them on. He then took off his hair and immediately turned into a wandering swordsman.
Lu Fei also put on a disguise and said, "I wonder who Brother Han has offended. Let's see if we have a common enemy."
Han picked a quiet alley and walked in, saying, "The person who wanted to kill me just now is called 'Nighthawk'. He's one of the six famous assassins in the world. He comes from the organization 'Secluded Night'. I was once a member of this organization too."
Lu Fei said, "Then I don't quite understand. Why did 'Nighthawk' want to kill you?"
Han said, "It wasn't 'Nighthawk' who wanted to kill me, but the leader of 'Secluded Night'. They sent out ten assassins of the 'Ye' generation to deal with me, but I killed two of them. Right now, it's probably because Nighthawk couldn't help but make the first move. It won't be long before the rest of them rush over. The reason why I'm being hunted down by them is because I destroyed their nest and let all the seed assassins go. They've suffered a great blow and will never be able to recover from this setback. Haha. "
Seeing Lu Fei's confused expression, Han brought him into a small, secluded tavern and said, "Let's talk inside."
There wasn't a single customer in the tavern. The owner was an old man in his seventies or eighties. The two of them ordered a jar of wine and two pounds of cooked beef. Han said, "Because my parents and brothers were brutally killed by 'Secluded Night', I joined their organization for revenge. When I became an assassin of the 'Ye' generation, I won the organization's trust and went to train the seed assassins of the organization. Then, I killed three of their executive elders and let everyone go. They chased me all the way from Yangzhou to here. In the middle, 'Nighthawk' almost succeeded. But for some reason, he didn't chase after me that day and let me escape. "
Lu Fei smiled, "Maybe he was trying to kill me that day. What's Lu Zhen's relationship with them?"
Han drank a cup of wine and said, "I was just about to talk about this. Lu Zhen is the son of 'Secluded Night's' leader. He only has one son. Do you understand now?"
Lu Fei smiled bitterly, "In that case, they won't stop until they kill me."
Han nodded and said, "They won't stop until they're dead. Even if the leader dies, 'Secluded Night' still has the support of the Elder Council. They'll choose a new leader. If you don't want to be hunted down by them, you'll have to kill everyone in the Elder Council." He paused and said, "But that's obviously impossible."
