It's obviously a life skill, but you developed it into a magical skill

The sound of the collision of swords raged across the sky, like the cry of a night owl.

Neither side took advantage of this move.

Zhou An had no intention of stopping, it was just a test.

The long knife in his hand condensed an afterimage in the air, and each knife was faster than the other.

The sword light filled the sky, illuminating the entire alley.

The black masked man stopped talking.

When real masters compete, talking will distract themselves.

The time between life and death is just a moment.

Distraction leads to death.

Their movements were very similar, they both swung their long knives one after another, and the sound of the swords clashing came one after another.

Zhou An felt that the Qi in his body was disappearing rapidly.

But since the Qi in his body became as thick as two thumbs, the recovery and consumption have changed dramatically.

He can still withstand it so far.

The black masked man was different, his exposed eyes gradually became bloodshot.

He cursed Zhou An in his heart for being shameless.

Just now, in order to deal with those five people, I used my own special skills, which consumed too much.

Now he has to deal with Zhou An again, and he is already a little exhausted.

There were more and more bloodshot eyes in his eyes, and the black-masked man knew that he wouldn't be able to bear it for long if this continued.

"Can't continue!"

In this scene, Zhou An made it clear that he would cripple him before he would stop.

This is not the right time to talk, and my current state is not suitable for fighting anymore.

The masked man in black had already made up his mind in just a moment.

If he continues, he will really be gone.

Maybe he could compete with Zhou An in his heyday, but he is not in his prime now.

After making a decision, the masked man in black put down the long knife, held the covering cloth with his left hand, and pulled it off.

In an instant, the masked man in black revealed his true identity.

An old face, a head full of gray hair, and bloodshot eyes.

Zhou An's long sword still moved forward, but this time it did not swing out, but stopped between the neck of the masked man in black.

"Let's just say the voice sounded familiar. It turned out to be you."

"Although we have a good friendship and you have taught me a lot, there is no room for turning around on this matter."

"Old Liu, I still give you a chance to speak."

The person standing in front of him was none other than Chef Liu who was returning home on leave.

Zhou An remembered that he went to the kitchen that day and didn't see Chef Liu.

Then Chef Liu hurried over.

Behind him, the body of the man from the Blood Shadow Sect was discovered.

Obviously, the male corpse was also touched by Chef Liu.

Chef Liu felt the coldness on his neck and said with a wry smile: "I didn't expect you, a small catcher, to be a third-rate master, and he also uses a knife. If I guessed correctly, the mysterious master is you." "

Chef Liu was more surprised than Zhou An.

The time he spent with Zhou An was not short.

Since Zhou An came to the kitchen to help cook, the communication between the two has increased.

And Chef Liu is actually very optimistic about Zhou An.

Not in other aspects, but Zhou An's patience and seriousness.

In the process of learning knife skills, Chef Liu only gave random instructions, but Zhou An would come over and carve over and over again every day.

This kind of seriousness is rarely seen among young people today.

He thought that Zhou An was serious at best, but he didn't expect that he had already entered the third-rate level.

Thinking of the mysterious master who appeared recently, that master is also superb in sword skills.

Now the shadows of Zhou An and the mysterious master overlap.

Chef Liu is not stupid, so he naturally thought of it.

"The yamen and the secret police go to investigate every day, but they didn't expect that a little detective would turn out to be a mysterious master!"

"What does he want? Hiding in a small Anding County, is there any secret?"

Unconsciously, Chef Liu felt that Zhou An was becoming more and more mysterious.

Zhou An could see the change in Chef Liu's expression.

He could understand, this expression was normal.

Just imagine, an ordinary person suddenly becomes a mysterious master who is in the limelight recently. This will happen to everyone.

But now is not the time to surprise Chef Liu.

"Old Liu, tell me." Zhou An said calmly.

Chef Liu opened his mouth and was about to say something.

At this moment, footsteps sounded.

The footsteps were dense, not the sound of a single person.

Zhou An knew clearly that it was Yu Hang who had brought the people who suppressed Guisi.

Chef Liu was also a master, and of course he could hear clearly. He quickly said: "Zhou An, come with me. Let's go to a place and talk slowly. It's hard for both of our identities to be exposed."

Zhou An thought for a while, then moved the long knife away: "Lead the way."

Chef Liu didn't waste any more words and climbed over the wall directly. Zhou An also followed and climbed over.

The two of them walked around the alley, walked far away, and entered a secluded street.

During this period, Chef Liu skillfully cleaned up the traces behind him to ensure that the people who suppressed Guisi could not keep up.

After everything was cleaned up, the two stopped in this secluded alley.

"Can we talk now?" Zhou An put a long knife on Chef Liu's neck.

Chef Liu felt the coldness on his neck and said helplessly: "Zhou An, we two don't have to do this. Let's just talk. There's no need to hold a knife."

"Isn't this the perfect atmosphere? Besides, you are such a master, you can't do it without wielding a knife." Zhou An said with a smile.

The look of helplessness in Chef Liu's eyes became even stronger.

He felt that this boy just couldn't get enough of it.

But it has already been highlighted for this reason, so he can only say it.

"By the way, you have some issues with the Blood Shadow Sect?"

Before speaking, Chef Liu still asked.

Zhou An shook his head: "I have nothing against the Blood Shadow Sect. I just want to know about the Beast Cult. There should be people from the Blood Shadow Sect in the Beast Cult."

Chef Liu was stunned for a moment, then quickly reacted and said in shock: "You want to deal with the Beast Cult?"

"That's right." Zhou An said, "Don't just ask me, tell me what you know."

He has conflicts with the Beast Cult.

Although he hides his identity, there is no airtight wall in this world.

If the Beast Cult discovered any clues, they might be tricked, so Zhou An chose to take the initiative.

Cut the grass without eradicating its roots, but it will grow again when the spring breeze blows.

The prerequisite for successful growth is to eliminate all hidden dangers.

Now is the process of eliminating hidden dangers.

Chef Liu thought for a moment: "That's right. You killed several of them. Their style is indeed to retaliate. As for me, didn't you hear it just now? I am the elder of the Blood Shadow Sect."

"I stole a treasure from the Blood Shadow Sect, so I ended up here. I am being hunted all the time. Even if I escape to such a small place and hide my identity, I am still being hunted."

"If your goal is the Beast Cult, we have the same goal."

"Tell me about it." Zhou An became interested.

He was not interested in the treasures of the Blood Shadows, but he was interested in dealing with the Beast Cult.
