Chapter 158

  "Is it Luo?" The voice of Cheng Dairen sounded.

  Luo Tie had never met Cheng Da Lei before, only heard that he beheaded Xiong Lao Da, and still had some expectations in his heart. Today, when they finally met, it was a great disappointment.

  Cheng Dali was supported by two people, with a pale yellow complexion and speaking in a weak tone, with a flattering smile on his face.

  "You're just Cheng Dali!" Luo Tie didn't hide his disdain.

  "It's just a small matter." Cheng Dalai said: "I don't know what place under his hand offended Luo Jiang, making him unhappy?"

  Luo Tieleng snorted, saying: "Cheng Dali, you must understand that you are just a mountain bandit. It was your foster father who helped you up to where you are today. If you don't know how to show gratitude, then your foster father can also bring you down."

  Xiao Hei accompanied Cheng Da Lei, and let out a heavy hum. Cheng Da Lei pinched his palm, indicating that he should not be impatient, as the Frog Village did not yet have the strength to confront the King of Youzhou head-on.

  "I understand, I understand." Cheng Dalai said with his hands hanging down.

  Jian Cheng's lack of backbone made Luo Tie even more disdainful.

  "Is this something for people to drink?!" Luo Tie picked up the wine jug: "You mountain stronghold just use these to entertain us!"

  "Hurry up and go get General Luo some good wine, make sure General Luo is satisfied."

  Cheng Dalai endured the humiliation, but it was impossible for Luo Tie to do anything about it. In his heart, he thought, "Why aren't you getting angry? If you get angry, I'll take advantage of the opportunity to stir up trouble and ask Yifu for elite soldiers to wipe out your Frog Village, then I can start anew."

  "Slow!" Luo Tie's eyes rolled over and a plan formed in his mind: "You drank this jar of wine for me?"

  "Alas, General Luo, I have contracted a chill and it is inconvenient for me to drink wine."

  "What, you won't give me face, or are you not giving the King of Youzhou face?" Luo Tiedao said: "I want you to drink this jar of wine dry, not a single drop is allowed to remain."

  Cheng Dairen's head hung low, a fierce glint flashing in the depths of his eyes. Xu Shenji and several others had already turned pale with rage, using their eyes to signal Cheng Dairen repeatedly. With just one order from Cheng Dairen, the hundred or so people before them would not be enough for Haicheng Fort to kill.

  "Alright, I'll drink." Cheng Dairen suddenly put on a smiling face.

  Everyone in the village felt as if they had suffered a great humiliation, with a lump in their throat that they couldn't spit out.

  "Big boss, I'll drink for you!"

  Xiao Hei suddenly shouted and went to receive the wine jar. Luo Tie's heart was overjoyed, and with a clang, he drew out his sword and charged at Xiao Hei.

  "What kind of thing are you, and what makes you worthy of drinking?"

  One sword flashed out, cutting off a small black ear, and the ground was instantly stained with blood. Luo Tiedou's sword was indeed very fast, and Cheng Dalai couldn't react in time.

  "What a dog thing, this time just give you a lesson, next time don't be so blind, beware of your dog life."

  Looking at the little black thing screaming on the ground, Cheng Dalai slowly raised his head: "What did you say?"

  "I..."

  Luo Tieguang spat out a word and noticed Cheng Dairen's gaze. The smile was gone, leaving only a murderous intent.

  Luo Tie was shocked at first, then delighted, and finally enraged. He had been furious earlier, but now he was even more infuriated. If only he had killed that little brat with one sword strike earlier, his anger would have been even greater.

  "Your surname is Cheng, you'd better take good care of your dog and don't let it bark randomly. My swift sword doesn't recognize the owner of a dog."

  "My dog is well-behaved, but does this dog have an owner?" Cheng Dalai gripped the hilt of his sword tightly.

  Luo Tie didn't get angry, and instead seemed to find it somewhat amusing. He burst out laughing: "You actually dare to draw your sword, you actually dare to draw your sword in front of me, haha!"

  As he spoke, Luo Tie pulled out an object from his bosom and flung it into the air. A clanging sound was heard, and six copper plates fell to the ground.

  Copper plate

  It seems that Luo Tie has a habit of carrying copper plates with him and performing for people at any time.

  The people around were stunned, and only then did they remember that Luo Tie had always been known as the fastest sword in Youzhou, and a wandering swordsman had once challenged him, only to be defeated in three moves.

  The grain transport team beside Luo Tie also raised their heads at this time, showing off in front of the mountain bandits, which was also their glory.

  "Do you also have such a fast sword that can cut through copper plates?" Luo Tiesheng burst out laughing: "If you can also cut through copper plates, today's matter will be written off."

  Cheng Dalai shook his head: "My sword is not for cutting copper plates."

  "Oh, what's that, chopping radishes?" Luo Tie laughed even more wildly, and the soldiers behind him also showed a smile on their faces.

  Cheng Dalai slowly spat out two words: "Killed someone."

  "Who are you going to kill? Are you going to kill me? Can your sword in hand kill me?"

  Xu Shenji and other mountain bandits have already sensed the murderous intent on Cheng Dairen's body, but Luo Tie is still in a dream, completely unaware.

  "Great master, great master!" Xu Shenji had already shouted out: "A small tolerance can ruin a big plan."

  Cheng Dalai ignored him.

  He grasped the hilt of his sword and asked, "Have you ever heard of a sword move called 'Direct Approach'?"

  "What?" Luo Tie was puzzled.

  "You will see it soon."

  Clang!

  Like hearing a dragon's roar, Cheng Dairen drew his sword from its scabbard and made a straightforward attack, swift as lightning.

  Cheng Dairen drew his sword and sheathed it in one breath, as if nothing had happened, with only the sword body dripping with fresh blood.

  Someone was shocked to discover a blood hole in Luo Tie's throat.

  "General Luo, General Luo!" The soldiers shouted loudly.

  The light in Luo Tiejian's eyes gradually dimmed, and with his last ounce of strength, he opened his eyes wide and stared tightly at Cheng Darui.

  "There's actually... such a fast sword in this world..."

  Is there really such a fast sword in the world?

  Yes.

  In the hands of Cheng Dairen, the sword is called Matchless Husband.

  One angry husband, blood flows for five steps.

  The soldiers were greatly shocked and hastily picked up their weapons. It was not the first time they had passed by the Frog Inn, and every time before, Da Lei had been submissive and even seemed a bit weak and easily bullied. Gradually, everyone no longer took him seriously.

  He didn't expect that if he didn't make a move, it would be fine, but once he made a move, he would kill someone, and the one he killed was still the adopted son of the King of Youzhou.

  Splash!

  A group of people rushed out from the Hamao village, instantly surrounding these soldiers. Each face was ferocious, like a demon that eats humans, a bloodthirsty monster.

  "General Cheng... let's talk this out, we don't want to fight with General Cheng..." said the centurion of the grain team.

  Cheng Dalai ordered his men to carry Xiao Hei away for treatment and then shouted at the soldiers: "Put down your weapons and take off your leather armor."

  The soldiers wanted to resist, but they were just grain transporters and had little combat power. In an instant, they were disarmed by the mountain stronghold of Hega and left shivering in the cold spring wind wearing only their undershirts.

  "General Cheng, we've both been serving under Governor Wang of Youzhou, and our relationship has always been decent. What's going on here? What are you doing?"

  "Pull the grain cart back to the stronghold." Cheng Dalai gave another order.

  "General Cheng, what are you doing? You can't seize the grain carts! If Prince of Youzhou finds out, he'll have our heads chopped off!" The hundred-man commander shouted in urgency, but with empty hands and no weapons to wield, all he could do was watch helplessly as the mountain bandits made off with the grain carts.

  "Take him away!" Cheng Dalai kicked the corpse of Luo Tie at his feet: "Pass a message to the King of Youzhou, saying that Luo Tie committed treason and was beheaded by Old Cheng!"
