Chapter 2420 Mao Sheng
Lu Dengfeng followed Meng Zibai for two streets. Seeing that there was no one on this street and the surrounding businesses were all closed, murderous intent flashed in his eyes and he wanted to take action.
But at this moment, a cold and stern aura suddenly enveloped him.
This aura was very powerful. Lu Dengfeng was sure that even the dean of Turtle Python Academy did not have such a strong aura.
His heart trembled, fear flashed in his eyes, and he tried to find the source of the aura, but there was no trace.
"Is there someone secretly protecting Meng Zibai?"
Lu Dengfeng thought to himself, but he also felt strange. If someone was protecting Meng Zibai, why no one took action during the previous battle in Yujiang.
He didn't think much and turned around to leave. The momentum was too strong and he didn't dare to take the risk.
But when he just turned around, he saw an old man wearing a simple gown standing behind him.
The other party arrived behind him without even realizing it, which shocked Lu Dengfeng.
"Who are you?"
Lu Dengfeng took a few steps back and looked at the old man in front of him warily.
The old man was short in stature, with a thin face and an indifferent expression, giving people an unfathomable feeling.
At this moment, Lu Dengfeng discovered that that terrifying momentum was coming from the old man.
The old man stared at Lu Dengfeng and said calmly: "Who I am is not important. What is important is that you follow my young master. What do you want to do?"
Lu Dengfeng felt guilty as he was stared at by the old man, and hurriedly cupped his hands and said: "Senior, don't get me wrong, I just happened to..."
"Did you happen to be passing by? That would be too much of a coincidence. We were on the Yujiang River just now. Was it also a coincidence?"
The old man interrupted Lu Dengfeng's words, and the sharp momentum enveloped Lu Dengfeng. The strong pressure made Lu Dengfeng feel that his energy and blood were stagnant, and even his breathing became unsmooth.
"Senior, I..."
Lu Dengfeng lowered his head, and even his tone became trembling in fear.
The old man didn't let him finish his words and said coldly: "You don't have to argue. If you want to attack my young master, I will never let you go."
Hearing this, Lu Dengfeng's expression changed, and without hesitation, he turned around and tried to escape.
But the moment he turned around, the old man raised his hand and struck his back with a fist.
This fist shadow looks ordinary, but its true energy is very condensed, powerful, and extremely fast. Lu Dengfeng cannot avoid it at all.
"Oops!"
Lu Dengfeng looked ugly, thinking that he was going to be killed by the fist shadow.
But at this moment, a figure suddenly appeared behind him, and he waved his hand to block the fist shadow.
Boom.
There was a loud noise, air waves rolled, and the true energy spread. Although the attack did not seem to be very strong, it destroyed all the buildings with a radius of 100 meters, and the ground was cracked inch by inch.
Fortunately, the street is wide enough and surrounded by uninhabited shops. Otherwise, no one in this area would survive.
Seeing someone coming to the rescue, Lu Dengfeng turned around with joy on his face: "Dean."
The person who came was none other than Xu Lingxu, the dean of Turtle and Python College.
However, Xu Lingxu's expression was not very good at this moment, because he found that the old man standing opposite him was actually at a higher level than himself.
If a fight really breaks out, I'm afraid that I may not be the opponent.
"Xu Lingxu!"
At this time, the old man looked Xu Lingxu up and down, but called out his name.
Xu Lingxu rolled his eyes and did not want to fight with the other party, so he raised his hands and said: "Since we all know this friend, please be noble and let my disciple go."
"no."
The old man shook his head, his attitude was very clear.
Xu Lingxu was unhappy. After all, he was the dean of Turtle and Python College, but the other party didn't give him any face. It was too much.
He said in a deep voice: "May I ask this friend, what is your surname?"
The old man said: "Mao Sheng."
Xu Lingxu's eyes flashed with thought. In his memory, there was no master in the induction period named Mao Sheng in the Western Continent.
He did not ask further questions and said to Mao Sheng: "Lu Dengfeng is my disciple. If you have offended Brother Mao in any way, please tell me and I will definitely punish him. But if Brother Mao wants to kill him, I will be the teacher." Yes, you can’t just sit back and watch.”
Mao Sheng still had the same indifferent attitude. He glanced at Lu Dengfeng who was standing behind Xu Lingxu and said in a deep voice: "Xu Lingxu, if you want to help him, we can have a fight."
"You are too crazy!"
There was already a bit of anger in Xu Lingxu's tone.
He has been in the Western Continent for many years and has never seen anyone so arrogant towards him.
His face hardened and he said in a deep voice: "Since Brother Mao won't give you face, don't blame me, Xu Lingxu, for being ruthless."
As soon as he finished speaking, he was about to take action.
At this time, a figure flew from the sky and landed between Xu Lingxu and Mao Sheng. The person who came was none other than General Chu.
The previous attack by Mao Sheng and Xu Lingxu was so loud that it alarmed many strong men in Linyu City.
But this is Chiyin County's territory, so everyone has nothing to do.
But as the captain of the entire Chiyin County, General Chu naturally came to check the situation immediately when he heard the commotion.
"Dean Xu, wait a minute."
After looking at Mao Sheng, General Chu looked shocked and quickly shouted to Xu Lingxu who had gathered his true energy.
Xu Lingxu noticed that when General Chu saw Mao Sheng, his eyes showed fear. Obviously, in General Chu's eyes, Mao Sheng's status was very high.
He was wondering, who could make General Chu feel so awe-inspiring?
"Chu Muran, it's none of your business here, get out of the way."
Mao Sheng called General Chu by his name and said calmly.
Chu Moran looked embarrassed and bowed. He said cautiously and respectfully: "Master Mao, I think Dean Xu must have no intention of offending you. The Spirit Boat Conference is about to begin. Please show mercy and don't hurt the harmony."
Seeing this attitude, Xu Lingxu beside him felt depressed and became more suspicious of Mao Sheng's identity.
When he was in the County Magistrate's Mansion before, Xu Lingxu saw with his own eyes that even when Chu Moran faced the County Magistrate of Chiyin County, he was not so cautious. Could it be that this old man named Mao Sheng was more noble than the County Magistrate?
The situation was a little wrong. Xu Lingxu stood aside and said no more, letting Chu Moran negotiate with Mao Sheng.
Although Mao Sheng looked cold, he did not seem to be unreasonable.
After hearing Chu Moran's words, he was silent for a while, looking directly at Lu Dengfeng, and said in a deep voice: "The death penalty can be avoided, but the living crime cannot be escaped. Considering that you recognized the wrong person, I will only cut off one of your arms."
Lu Dengfeng's heart trembled, and he looked to Xu Lingxu for help.
With three induction period cultivators in front of him, it was obvious that he had no right to speak, and he could only let Xu Lingxu negotiate.
Xu Lingxu thought in his heart, if someone cut off one of Lu Dengfeng's arms in front of him, where would his face be.
He was about to speak for Lu Dengfeng, but Chu Moran next to him looked relieved, and bowed to Mao Sheng and said: "Thank you, Lord Mao, for not killing me."
