Chapter 20
The light of the knives was as brilliant as snow.
When this alley was filled with blade light, the Beast Sect Protector’s entire body froze on the spot.
The raised claws were stiff as wood, not knowing where to swing.
It was all blade light, and swinging anywhere was useless.
“Impossible, impossible!”
“How could a tiny Anding County have such a skillful expert?”
“Why have I never heard of it?”
Anding County was very small.
How could an expert like this be inside of Anding County?
The Beast Sect Protector couldn’t figure it out, and he couldn’t continue to think about it.
This was because the white blade light had already penetrated through his body.
The Beast Cult Protector’s words came to an abrupt end as he lowered his head, wanting to look at himself.
The very moment he lowered his head, a line of blood appeared on his neck.
The entire head fell to the ground and rolled with a grunt.
As the head fell to the ground, line after line of blood appeared on his body.
It was like tofu that had been sliced, dissolving into even pieces and falling to the ground.
Blood stained the ground red.
Zhou An put away his sword and returned it to its sheath, not even looking this way, and exited the alley.
The alley was quiet.
The member of the Zhen Gui Si still kept his back to the corner, his eyes tightly closed, not daring to open them.
He knew very well that the other party didn’t want their identity to be noticed, which was why they hadn’t appeared.
He also knew that if he opened his eyes at this time and saw the other party’s face.
Then what awaited him would be a miserable end.
There were times when one should look and never look at what one shouldn’t.
Especially this mysterious expert, no one could figure out his temperament.
Silence had returned to the alley, not even the sound of footsteps.
“Elder, have you finished? Can I open my eyes now?”
The member of the Zhen Gui Si spoke cautiously.
No one answered him.
The Zhen Gui Si member spoke again, “Elder, don’t worry, I didn’t see anything, you can go ahead, you can pat the wall before you leave, and I’ll open my eyes.”
Still no one answered.
The Zhen Gui Si member took a deep breath and decided to open his eyes.
Since there was no sound anymore, the other party had probably already left.
“Senior, if you don’t say anything, then I’ll open my eyes.”
The Zhen Gui Si member tried another sentence before slowly opening his eyes.
He was careful with every step, especially when he turned his head, for fear of seeing something he shouldn’t.
The alley behind him was quiet, and the Zhen Gui Si member sighed in relief when he looked around the empty corner.
“Gone ……”
At this time, he was finally convinced that the mysterious master was gone.
But just as his line of sight subconsciously moved downward, he saw the puddle of broken pieces on the ground, as well as the blood on the ground.
Cold sweat rose from the top of his head.
The Zhen Gui Si member recalled the scene just now and counted the time.
From the time the Beast Sect Protector launched his attack, to the time when silence was restored to the alley, it was only a breath of time.
But it was this short period of time that there was more broken pieces in front of them, just how many swords had been wielded?
“This expert is higher than anything we imagined, and the other party doesn’t seem to have any malicious intent, I have to report this quickly, if we make a mess, we’ll be in trouble!”
The Zhen Gui Si member swallowed his saliva and bypassed the broken pieces on the ground, preparing to go out of the alley and return to the Zhen Gui Si to report the matter.
The entire process went smoothly, without encountering any further danger.
While the members of the Zhen Gui Division were heading to the Zhen Gui Division, Zhou An had already slipped and slipped and slipped and slipped and arrived at the government office.
Using the Grade 3 Butcher’s Sword for the first time brought him a very good feeling.
In that one breath of time just now, he had exhibited thirty slashes.
The entire thirty slashes of the knife made it impossible for people to defend themselves.
“Continue with the Liver Knife Skill tonight!”
Zhou An made up his mind and had already arrived at the entrance of the court.
At this time, it was also time for the duty to be dispersed.
The constables went back to their own homes and looked for their own moms.
Zhou An also slipped around and returned home.
After making a little dinner to eat and resting for a while, he picked up his kitchen knife.
“Let’s see how the proficiency level rises.”
Zhou Xin thought to himself as he began cutting vegetables on the cutting board.
Soon, the sound of snatching resounded in the room.
The sound continued to rise and fall, and after roughly half an hour, Zhou An then put down the chopping knife in his hand.
[Butcher’s Knife Technique (Speed +2, Accuracy +1): 2/40,000]
The entire half hour, but the proficiency froze without rising a bit, this is a little bit not right.
Even if it was even slower, half an hour would be able to go up quite a bit.
“There’s something fishy.”
Zhou An was in the room, walking back and forth.
“Where exactly is the problem?”
After thinking for most of the day, Zhou An still hadn’t figured out the exact situation.
Quite a bit of the follow-up that the college student had designed in the first place had already been forgotten by himself.
At this point, quite a bit of time had passed, and Zhou An decided to not think about it for the time being.
He still had other skills to liver, and his time at night was precious.
Thinking about this, Zhou An temporarily put the chopper aside and went to the kitchen, picking up the pot.
“Liver the Upside Down Pot first.”
After making up his mind, Zhou An put the dish into the pot and began to turn it upside down.
With a Level 2 Upside Down Pot, the skill proficiency rose slowly, but it at least went up.
After upsetting it, leaving two hours to sleep, Zhou An rested.
Soon, a night passed.
The next day.
After patrolling the streets yesterday, he continued to touch the fish today.
Zhou An came to the Yamen and after ordering his duties, he went to the kitchen.
Cook Liu was washing and picking vegetables, and when he saw Zhou An coming, he gave a wink, “Something happened to the street you patrolled yesterday.”
Of course Zhou An knew that something had happened, and that he had gotten involved.
But he pretended not to know and said strangely, “What happened?”
“The people from the Beast Cult attacked the Zhen Gui Si, and they were saved by the Mysterious Master, and now the Mysterious Master is really famous in our Anding County.” Cook Liu kept his head down to wash vegetables and said without raising his head.
“Zhang Si County had a huge fire, when would the Zhen Gui Si be retaliated against? So they started targeting the Beast Cult overnight.”
Zhou An just let out an oh.
He didn’t show any particular curiosity.
Cook Liu said strangely, “You’re not curious at all?”
Zhou An found an excuse: “What year is this, recently, the unrest in An Ding County is non-stop, so just be a little less curious to save your life.”
“You’re a sincere kid, your own life is more important these days.” Cook Liu laughed.
Zhou An did not continue chatting and started working.
He took out his kitchen knife and cut as usual.
But it was the same as always, the proficiency was not growing at all.
Putting down the chopper, Zhou An was once again in deep thought.
Cook Liu was serving the washed dishes on the table, and after seeing Zhou An in this state, he asked, “What’s wrong? What are you thinking about again?”
Zhou An came back to his senses and jokingly said, “I was thinking that my skill in cutting vegetables is getting better and better, so I can open a restaurant in the future.”
Chef Liu laughed, “What kind of restaurant can you open if you don’t know how to stir-fry? Besides, your chopping skills need to be further improved, chopping vegetables is not as simple as you think.”
Zhou An froze, he felt as if he had caught something in his mind.
