Soulless Technique, Giant Strength Technique

"You… Go away!!" Jiang Hong'e retracted her hand, hiding the panic in her charming eyes.

Lu Chen was pleased with himself and said gently, "Hong'e, I'm telling the truth."

"Hmph!" Jiang Hong'e harrumphed softly and turned sideways with the little fox in her arms, revealing her exquisite curves. Her most conspicuous butt line was especially round and full.

Lu Chen's heart skipped a beat as he recalled a scene from the past. He subconsciously looked at his right hand and muttered, "So soft~~"

Jiang Hong'e turned her back to Lu Chen and instructed, "You have to be careful when you go to the market today."

"What's wrong?"

"Fang seems to have some arrangements."

Lu Chen thought for a moment and said in surprise, "No one's going to rob the execution ground, right?"

"I don't know the details, but just be careful."

"Alright, I understand."

Jiang Hong'e suddenly stood up and walked straight to the screen inside. The little fox lay under the screen and glared at Lu Chen, as if warning him not to peek.

"Hehe~" Qing He chuckled and walked in to help Jiang Hong'e change her clothes.

Lu Chen's eyes widened in surprise. "Hong'e, are you going on a long trip today?"

"Mm~" Jiang Hong'e snorted and explained, "There's an auction in Fengpo City at the beginning of today. I'm going to take a look and get rid of that Buddhist staff."

"Can I follow?"

"Don't you want to be an executioner? How can you leave?"

"That's true." Lu Chen felt a little regretful and reminded her, "Be careful on the way. I heard that there are many unaffiliated cultivators who want to kill others for money."

"It's not my first time. I know how to handle it."

"Tonight, I'll wait for you here."

"Mm~~"

Jiang Hong'e changed her clothes and walked out from behind the screen. She was dressed in a black robe and a cloak. She looked extremely mysterious. Not only did she cover her exquisite body, but it was also difficult to tell if she was a man or a woman.

After sending Jiang Hong'e off, Lu Chen slowly walked towards the Town Guards Mansion.

When Lu Chen arrived, the guard was escorting the condemned prisoner out of the mansion. The leader was more than two meters tall and had a face full of stubble. When he saw Lu Chen walking over, he waved his hand.

"Here!"

Lu Chen knew this person. His name was Zhang Kui, and he was the gerefa of the town guards. He was in charge of a 100-man team. He walked over, cupped his fists, and asked, "Where's General Fang?"

"The general has other plans." Zhang Kui pointed at one of the prisoners on death row and instructed, "If anything happens, please kill this person first."

There were a total of eighteen prisoners on death row. All of them were handcuffed and staggered. Other than the three bald monks who were the most eye-catching, the rest were robbers, although they were all heavily injured.

However, they all had a fierce aura. They looked like wolves and tigers.

It was obvious.

They were the same as the soldiers. After enduring the battle, their bodies were not something ordinary people could compare to.

The person Zhang Kui was pointing at was eight feet tall and about twenty years old. He was thin and had the word "prisoner" branded on his forehead. Half of his long hair had been cut off. His hair was disheveled and his gaze was fierce.

The most eye-catching thing was his arms. That arm was extremely long. It could not be described as a long arm that reached past his knees. It had already reached his ankles, making him look like a big monkey.

"Bah!" Seeing Lu Chen look over, that person spat out a mouthful of saliva and cursed. "Bastard!"

Lu Chen sneered and didn't lower himself to the level of a dead person. He turned around and asked, "Is he talented?"

"Yes, he's Daoist Wu's third disciple. He has the talent [Ape Arm]. People call him the Three-Legged Ape. Daoist Wu thinks highly of him. There are even rumors that he's Daoist Wu's son. Yes, he had an affair with a female ape and gave birth to a bastard."

"The grass is tender and firm!"

"Hahaha!"

Ape Three-Legged cursed, and the soldiers laughed heartily.

Daoist Wu!

The leader of the nearby Great Yan Mountain was also the murderer of his master, Daoist Qingyan.

"Understood." Lu Chen nodded. He wanted to force the Daoist Wu out, but he didn't know if the other party would take the risk.

The group walked towards the entrance of the market. From time to time, townsfolk who were watching the show would follow them. When they arrived at the entrance of the market, there were already hundreds of people gathered around.

The soldiers escorted the condemned prisoners onto the high platform and pressed them to the ground.

Lu Chen's head was wrapped in a red scarf. He took the decapitation blade and walked over step by step. He stood behind Three-legged Ape with a cold smile on his lips as he stared at the other party's neck.

"You… you…" Three-Legged Ape finally knew fear and squirmed uneasily like a maggot.

Lu Chen held the decapitation blade in his hand and held his head high.

They waited in silence. Waiting for noon, waiting for the sun to rise. At that time, the Yang qi would be at its strongest. With a slash, it would be an extravagant hope to become a ghost.

Time slowly passed, and it was getting closer and closer to noon.

Lu Chen took the bowl of wine handed over by the guard and gulped it down with a straight face. It was burning hot. He turned his head and saw a pair of women walking over from the crowd. Their long hair reached their waists and they were pretty girls from humble families. They held hands like a pair of twin flowers.

"Why are they here?"

Lu Chen's heart skipped a beat. He hurriedly put down the decapitation blade and quickly walked down.

"Young Master!"

"Young Master is so awe-inspiring!"

The two of them welcomed them happily. They were Jiang Hong'e's maids, Qing He and Qing Shui.

"Why are you here?"

"Madam isn't here. We're bored, so we came out to take a look. Qing He said that you were here and insisted on dragging me over to take a look."

"It's not safe here. Get out of here."

"Hmph!" Qing He imitated Jiang Hong'e. She snorted and pouted. "Young master, don't look down on us. We also have cultivation."

Because they were by Jiang Hong'e's side, the two of them had inexplicably opened their Spirit Apertures. Furthermore, they had obtained the Qi Refinement cultivation technique that Jiang Hong'e had imparted to them, which was why they had cultivated.

However, their aptitude was not good. They had Pseudo-Spiritual Roots. After cultivating for a few years, their achievements were only so-so.

Qing He worked harder and barely reached the second level of Qi Refinement. Qing Shui was still showing off at the first level of Qi Refinement.

Reasoning with women was the most troublesome.

Lu Chen was deeply touched by this. Seeing that the people around him were all looking, and he could not reveal the news that the Daoist Wu might rob the execution ground, he did not say anything else.

He wrapped his arms around them. He held the two of them in each of his arms.

"Ah!"

The two girls cried out coquettishly, their faces filled with embarrassment. The soldiers were envious, and the surrounding commoners also took the opportunity to make a fuss. Lu Chen did not say a word and left the market entrance like a wisp of smoke. He spent a lot of effort persuading the two girls to listen.

When Lu Chen hurried back to the market, it was noon.

"Look, there's a bird!"

"It's… it's a paper bird!"

Lu Chen had just picked up the decapitation blade when a series of exclamations sounded. He looked up and his pupils suddenly constricted. He saw five white cranes soaring in the air.

The white crane was very lifelike, but its wings were stiff when it flew, and there was no divine light in its eyes.

Upon closer inspection, it was five paper cranes!

Swish~

The paper crane let out a violent cry and swooped down, revealing the ferocious figures on its back.

"Enemy attack!"

"Be on guard!"

"Hey! Ha!"

The surrounding civilians fled in panic and screamed loudly. Countless people were injured. The gerefa, Zhang Kui, shouted angrily. The hundred soldiers retracted their defenses and raised their shields and spears. Their iron armor was dense as they guarded the high platform tightly.

"Haha! Smash it and die!" Three-Legged Ape and the condemned prisoners laughed wildly, and the chains on their bodies rattled.

Lu Chen was about to cut off his head.

BOOM!

The soldiers in front of him suddenly exploded. A person dressed as a farmer strode over and suddenly straightened his back. His temperament suddenly changed and he turned into a middle-aged scholar.

He had a refined face and a tall figure. He held a small black bell in his hand, making people feel like they were bathing in the spring breeze.

This person… was the leader of the Great Yan Mountain Bandits.

Daoist Wu!

"He actually infiltrated Fengxian Town alone."

Lu Chen was shocked. He saw the other party suddenly throw the black bell in his hand and shout, "Soulless Technique!"

Ding, ding, dang, dang~

Ding, ding, dang, dang~

As the bell rang, dozens of soldiers instantly stiffened. As the black bell rushed over, all of them rolled their eyes and collapsed to the ground.

"Die!"

Zhang Kui was furious. He held the two-meter long blade in his hand and his feet exploded. He suddenly rose from the high platform and waved his long saber, slashing down!

"Hmph, an ant trying to shake a tree!" Daoist Wu formed a hand seal with his left hand and placed it behind his back. His right hand clenched tightly, and his fist instantly swelled a few times. He threw a punch. "Great Strength Technique!"

Buzz!

The long blade flew out with a trembling cry, cutting a commoner in half at the waist.

Zhang Kui was thrown out like a cannonball and rolled more than a hundred meters down the street. He struggled for a long time but could not get up. He only shouted with his face covered in blood, "Kill… Kill that bastard!"

Lu Chen ignored him. He threw down the decapitation blade and quickly retreated.

"At least you know your place." Daoist Wu snorted coldly and flew up to the high platform. With a chop of his fingers, he cut off the chain and reached out to pat Three-legged Ape's shoulder. He smiled and said, "Little Three, I'll do as I say. I'll save you when I say so."

Three-Legged Leg slowly raised his head. Blood flowed from his mouth and nose as he forced a smile. "Father, that… that kid broke my heart meridian with a… kick from behind!"

As soon as he finished speaking, his head lowered and he was already dead!
