The weather is gradually getting hotter, and at noon, the scorching sun on top of our heads makes people feel unbearable.

  However, the official road was unusually crowded with people rushing to escape. The news of the Xiongnu invasion spread like a plague, and those who moved their whole family were by no means in the minority. Their destination was either the south or the west.

  Just then, a team of horses galloped swiftly by on the official road, kicking up clouds of dust and causing passersby to turn their heads.

  "Big brother, it's time to rest." Xu Haifeng pointed to a nearby dense forest and called out.

  Feng Ming quietly pulled on the reins, raised his head and muttered a curse under his breath, saying: "Alright, let's rest for a while."

  Xu Haifeng waved his hand and everyone drove their horses away from the main road.

  In the dense forest, many people who could not bear hardships had already sat down. Suddenly, a group of burly men with fierce momentum rushed up, causing a commotion instantly.

  Xu Haifeng and the others didn't bother to argue with them, and naturally occupied a spot that was particularly shady. They took out some dry rations, poured some water from their canteens, and hastily began to eat.

  "Second brother, what are you saying? What kind of evil is Caesar's people doing?"

  He hastily stuffed the food in his hand into his belly, looked around and didn't find anyone who was out of place, so he asked in a low voice.

  With a wry smile, Xu Haifeng shook his head and flipped the pancake in his hand over, as if thinking: "I don't know, maybe they're just probing."

  A few days ago, Xu Haifeng and Ge Haojian left the town together.

  As for Ge Haojian's disciples and relatives, they were handed over to the last surviving personal soldier under Fang Xianghui's command, who slowly led them towards Wulong City.

  Li Guanying's physical weakness made it impossible for him to ride a horse, so Xu Haifeng left Li Mingtang to accompany them on their journey.

  Xu Haifeng and his brother were not worried about their safety. The next target of the Imperial Army was the Northern Great Camp, and in order to deal with these 200,000 imperial elites, they absolutely could not spare many people to sweep the surrounding towns.

  As long as they don't dawdle or cause trouble on the way, under Li Mingtang's escort with his junior master's strength, they will definitely be able to arrive safely at Wolong City.

  But just yesterday, Monkey Boy rushed from Wulong City, bringing a letter dictated by General Jiang himself.

  The Caesarians have begun to act, but they only gathered an army of 50,000 and set out from Mingshui City, marching 30 miles a day. On the third day, they arrived just outside Wulong City, 100 miles away. But at this time, the Caesarians suddenly stopped and pitched camp, never advancing another step.

  Caesar's advance caused the Wind and Crane to sound in Wulong City, Jiang Gongming made a decisive decision, ordered the city gate to be sealed, the whole city was on high alert, and sent Monkey Boy to report the news here.

  After receiving the report, Fang Ming urged Xu Haifeng to set off immediately. Although he didn't know what kind of tricks the Kaisa people were playing, it was always right to return earlier.

  With a loud noise, dozens of people drove several horse-drawn carriages over.

  Several men around the horse carriage opened their outer garments and walked into the dense forest in big strides. Seeing that the best place to cool off had been occupied by Xu Haifeng and his group, they couldn't help but mutter a few sentences. One of the men with sharp eyes suddenly called out in a low voice, and immediately several people started scolding and cursing.

  How could this kind of clown possibly enter their eyes, and even Hai Feng and others couldn't be bothered to glance over with their eyelids.

  Those men saw that Xu Haifeng and the others were unmoved, so their insults grew louder. Fang Xiang was restrained by his identity and did not want to stoop to their level, but as he listened to them becoming more and more unbridled, his face involuntarily sank down.

  At this time, a man in his fifties got down from the carriage and looked at Xu Haifeng and others with suspicion.

  The old man's eyes gleamed like electricity, his temples slightly bulging, and his breathing was long and steady. The direction of the sound seemed to have a response, he turned his head to look, and the two men's eyes met in mid-air, suddenly bursting out a thread of bright light.

  He withdrew his gaze, and the direction of the sound brought a look of astonishment to Xǔ Hǎifēng, who slightly nodded, suddenly understanding. But he didn't know what kind of background this person had, that he could encounter a top-notch expert in this place.

  If saying Duan Xiang was just slightly surprised, then this old man's heart was like a stormy sea, unbelievable.

  Who is this young man? At such a young age, his cultivation has already surpassed that of his own decades-long hard work. His gaze swept across the room, lingering on Xu Haiming and Lin Changkong for a moment, his expression growing increasingly unsightly.

  When his gaze finally turned to Xu Haifeng, he saw him turn his head and smile, and suddenly he couldn't help but laugh out loud. Immediately afterwards, he was startled awake, with a cold sweat already seeping from the back of his heart.

  He could still hear his own family's younger generation loudly scolding him from the side, he was startled in his heart, and his body leaped like lightning to the side of those who were scolding the most fiercely, grabbing their collars with one hand and throwing them out one by one.

  Those men were also unlucky, just as they were cursing with gusto, suddenly, as if riding on clouds and fog, they were thrown out, heavily falling to the ground, and crying out in pain.

  The rest of them were shocked and those who reacted quickly already had their knives in hand, but when they saw the face of the person who made the move, they suddenly became stunned and didn't know what to do.

  The old man glanced at them, snorted in anger, turned his head around, and with a clenched fist said: "These few disciples of mine are naturally reckless, if there is any offense, please forgive."

  Fang Ming didn't turn his head back, pretending he hadn't heard. Meanwhile, Xu Haifeng's gaze drifted towards Ge Haojian.

  The latter suddenly understood and stood up, returning the courtesy with a bow: "Well said, but I don't know why these few gentlemen harbor hostile intentions towards us."

  He had been a captain for over ten years and it was second nature for him to get to the bottom of things, so he asked without realizing it.

  The old man's face showed a hint of embarrassment, he coughed and said: "Actually it was all just a misunderstanding. The few who rushed by earlier stirred up dust that blinded their eyes. Alas... being young and vigorous is also due to my leniency in teaching them every day."

  Those big men have never seen the old master be so polite to anyone, even the stupidest ones know that the people in front of them are not good to mess with, and they all shut up like cicadas in winter, not daring to interrupt.

  Ge Haojian suddenly enlightened, he carefully looked at them and asked: "Senior, are you Lu Yangming, the master of Kuai Jian Men?"

  Lü Yang's name was mentioned, and he secretly let out a breath of relief, saying: "It is indeed I, sir. And you are..."

  "My name is Ge Haojian, a low-ranking officer."

  "He turned around and introduced to Xu and Fang: 'This is the Fast Sword King, Lü Menzhong, one of the Six Absolutes of the Great Han's Northern Territory, renowned throughout the Jianghu for his unparalleled speed with a sword.'"

  "Rivers and lakes..." Xǔ Hǎifēng's eyes sparkled with curiosity, his mouth softly reciting the phrase. Although he had many skilled subordinates, he had never been involved in any entanglements with people from this circle.

  The only one who had any intersection with him was the Grandmaster Li Yanbo, but this person's identity was too high, and he had long since transcended the ordinary Jianghu figures.

  Lü Yang's face revealed a hint of bitter smile, if it were someone else who was flattering him like this on an ordinary day, he might have been overjoyed, but with these few people in front of him...he didn't dare to be the slightest bit careless.

  In this team of over thirty people, every single one of them has a cultivation level of second-grade or higher, and there are even three first-grade masters. It's absolutely astonishing to hear about it. Moreover, there is also someone whose depth cannot be gauged by his eyesight alone, giving him an unfathomable and profound feeling.

  "Kuai Jian Men..." Direction Ming murmured unconsciously, and after a moment, he suddenly laughed and said: "Second Brother, your trouble has arrived."

  Xu Haifeng nodded slightly and raised an eyebrow, but didn't take over the conversation.

  Fang Ming pointed at Lü Yang's name and smiled meaningfully: "The Quick Sword Sect is a major sect in Cangzhou, and Zhang Yifei is one of their inner disciples."

  "Zhang Yifei?" Xǔ Hǎifēng muttered, his thoughts drifting back to two years ago, recalling the frame-up and massacre of the Zhang family in Cangzhou City.

  It was just that at the time, Xu Haifeng had not yet learned to calm his mind and could not control his special abilities. Under his restless state of mind, he would do things that were vastly different from what he normally did.

  He sighed and looked back on past events with regret.

  He didn't find it strange that Fang Zhelan knew about this matter, if the Fang family's strength couldn't even investigate, they would have been eliminated from the four major families long ago.

  Lü Yang's eyes showed a deepening look of puzzlement, and suddenly he heard them mention a disciple who had passed away in the sect. He couldn't help but wonder if there was some connection between him and that person.

  Zhang Yifei was one of his indoor disciples, this person's talent is not top-notch, originally he couldn't enter his door. However, the Zhang family was one of the largest households in Cangzhou City, with this background, he naturally took on this disciple without hesitation.

  As expected, every year Zhang's family offered the most generous gift, enough to make him feel grateful for his wise decision at that time.

  However, since two years ago, the Zhang family suddenly suffered a devastating disaster, and all the old and young people in the family were killed. Moreover, the crime of the Zhang family was also shocking, colluding with foreign enemies and rebelling against the imperial court.

  After learning the news, the only thing he could do was to try his best to clear himself of any connection with the Zhang family. Fortunately, his Fast Sword Sect still had some face in the local area, and the government did not come to his door looking for trouble.

  But from then on, he paid attention to a person's name.

  His mind flashed with these thoughts like lightning, and he suddenly felt a movement in his heart, his face turned pale, and he exclaimed: "Xu Haifeng?"

  Xu Haifeng's face showed a hint of bitterness. It seemed that he indeed had a notorious reputation, one that made people change color upon hearing it.

  He did not regret his initial decision. This world is like this, and the strong survive while the weak perish is the only rule.

  If he hadn't rushed to the city of Cangzhou with his life on the line, not only would he have failed to save his brother, but he might have even lost his own life.

  Xu Haifeng slowly stood up, facing Lü Yangming, with a faint smile, and a strong aura mixed with powerful spiritual fluctuations surged towards them.

  As if under immense pressure, everyone except Lü Yangming involuntarily retreated backward.

  His spiritual energy was released and then withdrawn, Lv Yang barely managed to steady himself. His face had an irrepressible look of shock, his mouth dry and tongue parched, as he trembled and said: "Master..."
