Hidden Corners

Snowflakes were falling on the school ground, but at this time Lei Kai and the two Xiongshijun looked serious. Facing the approach of a teenage boy, the three of them actually felt obvious discomfort.

It is a special feeling where the skin shrinks, the pores close, and the body feels threatened.

The instincts honed on the battlefield made the three men's sword-holding hands tighten and they bowed slightly.

But soon, they realized that they were not facing a barbarian, but a noble boy who was just thirteen years old.

The other party was not as tall as any of them. He had never even seen blood.

Thinking of this, the three of them felt a little funny about their reactions.

Lei Kai stared at Li Chengyi with his dark brown eyes and laughed mockingly.

"What? The little baron has grown wings and wants to scream at his elders? Do you know what you are doing now? A little thing that no one has ever seen before?"

He would never admit that he was scared just now. A little guy who was only thirteen years old, just pressing forward step by step, could actually scare him, a regular knight who had been on the battlefield more than ten times.

This is something he will never admit.

"No one else knows about uncle's visit, right?" Li Chengyi said suddenly.

Lei Kai was stunned. He had indeed just come out of the tavern and drank all night. The more he thought about it, the more angry he became. Then he rushed over with two brothers who were drinking together to question him.

If it weren't for the drunkenness, he wouldn't be so impulsive.

"What? What do you want to do by asking this?" He sneered twice and stared at Li Chengyi.

"Do you still want to do something to me?" He was surrounded by his people, his soldiers, and he was just a little boy. He didn't think he could ride such a big wave.

"Of course I don't dare." Li Chengyi looked around and saw a total of eight Black Fort soldiers guarding the school grounds, all of whom were eyeing him.

"After all, so many people are watching." Before he could finish his words, there was a sudden sound of a sword.

Clang!

Li Chengyi suddenly rushed forward, drew his sword and bent down, suddenly rushing towards Lei Kai who was less than ten meters away.

"You!!?" Lei Kai didn't expect that he would actually dare to take action. His expression changed, and he drew his sword and slashed forward.

Dang! !

The two swords clashed instantly, but the power exerted by the boy opposite caused his expression to change immediately. That is not the strength that should belong to a young man, even if it is the huge strength of a barbarian, it is nothing more than that.

The double-edged sword was forced to tilt toward him quickly, then pressed against his forehead and hit his helmet hard, making a muffled sound.

Lei Kai stumbled back, losing his balance. Before he could stand still, the dizziness of hangover hit him at the same time.

He fell back, and his chest exploded as a black practice sword was pierced through a gap in his armor.

Bang.

The man fell to the snow, convulsing, and his blood was stained red and white.

In just two seconds, everything was completely settled.

Li Chengyi straightened up, drew his sword, and looked at the two bewildered bearded bear soldiers on the side.

They had only half drawn their swords and looked at the scene in front of them with blank expressions.

There was silence.

The sound of heavy breathing continued to come from the helmets of the two bear food soldiers.

They looked at the Milton Knight in horror and backed away step by step.

"Just deal with it all, Teacher Milton." Li Chengyi said calmly.

Since it was a crisis targeting him from a blind spot, he had to strike first and deal with it thoroughly.

laugh!

Milton came back to his senses, charged forward, and caught up with the two bear food soldiers who were trying to retreat. After a few crisp sword sounds, the two were easily chopped down to the ground.

The weapons and equipment of regular knights have great advantages. It only takes one strike of the sword to cut off its weapon.

Facing knights, only heavy shield soldiers can somewhat ignore the gap between weapons.

After all, a thick and large shield is just a pile of materials, which can easily restrain a sharp double-edged sword.

After everything settled, Li Chengyi looked at the surrounding Black Fort soldiers.

"Who do you swear allegiance to?" he asked casually.

At this time, the surrounding soldiers were at a loss. They did not expect that everything would change so quickly. Before he could react, Knight Leikai fell to the ground bleeding.

When they first saw him falling to the ground, they thought it was just Lei Kai pretending to fall, or maybe he was careless and slipped.

But then a sword hit the chest, piercing the breastplate, and they realized that something was wrong.

"I'll handle it here." Milton also drew his sword from the corpse at this time and looked back at Li Chengyi, his eyes also full of shock that couldn't be dissipated.

Those two blows just now, he asked himself, if it were him who faced them, he would never be able to avoid those sword strikes to the chest.

Carlos's power and speed were coordinated perfectly, and his timing was just right.

This kind of grasp of the fleeting opportunity in the battle made it completely impossible for him to see that it was used by a young man who had never been on the battlefield.

genius!

This word that had appeared more than once appeared in his mind again.

"Okay teacher." Li Chengyi nodded lightly.

The crisis just now has been resolved, and it was confirmed that there would be no new sources of danger around him, and he felt relaxed.

Perhaps he mistakenly recognized that Lei Kai was not a dangerous threat in the blind spot. After all, he was too weak. But it doesn't matter. He would rather kill by mistake than let go. Anyway, for him, it's just a matter of using his hands.

Wiping away the blood on the snow with his sword, Li Chengyi calmly turned around and walked towards the Black Castle.

His current strength is not very strong, but combined with special skills, his strength can be amplified a lot.

He has practiced swordsmanship skills in Pan Guang for a long time, and there are many basic swordsmanship skills included.

Lei Kai's death caused a huge sensation in Black Castle. Afterwards, no one reported that Li Chengyi had killed him. Instead, it was rumored that Lei Kai died of drunkenness and suddenly fell to the ground.

Many people testified, and two bear food soldiers were present.

Death from alcoholism is not an isolated case. In this cold and icy world, drinking is people's favorite entertainment activity. Death caused by high alcohol content is a common occurrence.

Without waiting for anyone else to verify, Lei Kai's body was hastily cremated, losing the possibility of recurrence.

That night, Melissa hurried to Li Chengyi's room and asked him about relevant matters.

Li Chengyi didn't hide anything and answered directly.

"How could you do this? He is your uncle!!" After Melissa learned the truth, she staggered back two steps as if struck by lightning, her back pressed against the wall, her cheeks turned white.

"He wants to kill me and inherit the territory. You should be aware of this, right?" Li Chengyi calmly flipped through the new book in his hand without looking at the other person.

"Then you can't kill him! You can imprison him." Melissa whined in disbelief.

"Sorry, let me correct you. I didn't kill him. I was only thirteen years old. How could I kill a battlefield knight who had experienced hundreds of battles? It was just an accident." Li Chengyi said.

"...Your grandfather won't think it's an accident. He won't let you go." Melissa said with a pale face.

"It doesn't matter. It will take time to get back from the summons here, and it will take time to investigate the case. Even if the investigation is clear, it will be enough for us to integrate everything." Li Chengyi didn't care.

After personally experiencing the strength of a regular knight, he knew that it was just the limit of a stronger ordinary person. Even if he wore armor and carried weapons, the threat to him was not as good as that of the modified people from the Earth and Moon period.

Weak, rough, like weeds.

Such an opponent is not worthy of being called an opponent at all, and can only be regarded as an insect.

In this case, what is the real threat to him in this blind spot?

he thought.

He wouldn't think that a blind corner that could forcibly pull him out of the City of Nirvana would be so harmless.

I don’t think that the danger is that small. If it were that simple, then so many people in blind spots wouldn’t die.

So he must be extremely cautious.

At this time, Melissa came back to her senses and looked at her son with an indifferent and calm face under the candlelight, and a deep sadness suddenly arose in her heart.

Her son, killed her brother

Is there anything more tragic than this in this world?

"Carlos, you are not like your father, nor like me." With deep sadness, Melissa left the room.

Li Chengyi did not comfort her. Melissa was just an ordinary person. She would behave like this whether Lei Kai or Carlos died.

Did Melissa really not know that Lei Kai wanted to kill him before?

No, she knew, she just wanted to delay it, she just felt that the situation was not that serious yet.

The illusion of peace numbed her.

This means that you will never give up until you reach the Yellow River.

After gathering his thoughts, Li Chengyi continued to look through the book in his hand.

Now the knight's training has been formalized. He eats a lot of meat every day and his body develops normally.

Although the bloodline belonging to the Dark Dragon God is restricted and cannot be fully exerted, it can still undergo a slight transformation and extend into the body.

After all, even the brilliant flash can have some sparkle left. The ultimate body bloodline such as the Dark Dragon God comes from the language of flowers. Even if it is limited by the world, it can still play a little role.

Just how much different it plays.

Time passed, and soon, Lei Kai's death spread quietly, reaching Thrall's territory thousands of miles away.

There was no response. The count neither sent anyone to investigate nor gave a reply.

Just a few weeks later, the stationed Bear Food Army suddenly left quietly, leaving no one behind.

Apparently, after his son's death, the old count chose the default outcome.

He only has two sons and one daughter. If he kills his grandson for this reason, his daughter will inevitably be separated, which means he will end his own bloodline.

Now that it was a done deal, he might have hesitated for a long time, but he still chose to accept it.

Li Chengyi didn't care about this. Knight Milton helped him integrate all the soldiers in Black Fort, and with the assistance of the recovered old supervisor Buck, he quickly took over the position of territorial sheriff and became Li Chengyi's man completely.

Melissa indulges herself every day, indulging in alcohol, salons, and small parties.

Don't worry about Li Chengyi's affairs at all.

Two years passed quickly.

Li Chengyi's body became stronger and stronger. He put on customized heavy armor. His rapid growth in strength allowed him to quickly surpass the limits of ordinary adult men and reach the level of a specially trained knight, which was almost the same as Milton.

This kind of power, combined with his profound force-generating skills, allowed him to defeat Milton, who was fully armed and going all out, within three frontal moves.

Compared to the time when he defeated the drunken and careless Lei Kai, such strength was completely unbelievable in Milton's eyes.

You must know that although skills can be learned and learned, the natural strength, speed and explosiveness are all innate.

And Li Chengyi is not lacking, he is simply the most perfect warrior.

Spring of 774 in the Imperial Calendar.

Viscount Tislan, near Oklahoma, held a large-scale youth club salon for his two daughters who were about to grow up.

Invite young men of appropriate age from all the nobles in the surrounding territories to come and communicate.

Viscount Tislan is the superior nobleman of Baron Okla, and he was also the nominal canonized lord many years ago.

Being in the most basic order and rules within the aristocracy, Baron Li Chengyi naturally had to give face.

After receiving the news, supervisor Old Buck immediately went to find Baron Carlos.

The slightly cold spring air poured in through the corridor window.

Old Buck ignored the cleaning maid who bowed to him along the way. He grabbed a patrolling Black Fort soldier and asked about the baron's location.

"The baron should be reading in the study." the soldier replied.
