Immortality Martial Arts: I Started with the Five Animals Health Fist

Chapter 320: Chapter 132 Qi-Blood Furnace Confrontation! The Devious Movement of the Deer Snake!_3

Su Changkong had previously been surrounded by the army led by Pei Chen and only escaped with ease by capturing Pei Chen.

“This time there are even fewer people, and the target is not just me, there’s no need to fight them, just slip away!”

Su Changkong thought to himself. The rebel force’s movements had been exposed and they were being hunted down by the Dafeng Iron Cavalry, but for Su Changkong, it was an excellent opportunity to escape.

Five Animal Frolics. Penetrating Forest Deer!

With a silver metal mask on his face, Su Changkong’s figure flashed as he squeezed through the gap between two galloping Cavalry, weaving through the spaces.

“Stop him!”

Some Cavalry noticed Su Changkong shuttling through the ranks and were shocked, someone raised their sword to chop at Su Changkong.

“Bang!”

But Su Changkong grabbed his wrist, exerted force, and in an instant flung the Cavalry from their horses, sending them crashing into their comrades, causing a tumult.

Su Changkong, like a Spirit Deer, darted through the gaps, and then like a serpent, grasped the sides of a horse’s belly, powered forward with his arms, feet off the ground, his body shooting forward as he crawled and leaped.

Su Changkong’s Five Animal Frolics, infused with the essence of Form-Intention Fist, including the snake form, enhanced his agility even further.

In such chaos, he could maneuver even among thousands of troops. Of course, the main reason was the presence of Ma Hong and several hundred rebels; the Cavalry couldn’t focus on pursuing just him alone, which allowed him to move so freely.

With his nimble and unpredictable moves, Su Changkong actually managed to weave through the charging Cavalry ranks and break out of the encirclement!

“Go!”

Once clear of the encirclement, Su Changkong unleashed his agility, leaping tens of feet at a time as he fled into the distance.

“Who is that masked man? Is there such a martial artist with bizarre movements among the rebels?”

Some Cavalry who noticed Su Changkong getting away were stunned, but with his agile movements, once he broke through the encirclement, hardly anyone could catch up with him.

Su Changkong sped along, shuttling through the mountains and forests, with the sounds of shouting and killing gradually fading behind him. He traveled thirty or forty miles, weaving through the wilderness and desolate mountains.

After passing through a stretch of woods, Su Changkong came to a sudden stop!

Under a large tree ahead, a tall and burly man stood quietly. He was wearing a brown robe, with a sturdy build, and an imposing presence without anger, seemingly waiting there for a while as he looked up.

“Hong Zhenxiang!”

Seeing this person, Su Changkong was slightly startled. This man was none other than Hong Zhenxiang, whom he had once encountered in the Giant Whale Gang.

Hong Zhenxiang himself was a legendary figure in Dafeng State City, occupying the position of a Great Commander of the Dafeng Iron Cavalry, and had appeared in the Giant Whale Gang, taking away the unruly Mu Jin.

Commander Hong Zhenxiang stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze calmly drifting toward the distance, “Chai Zheng, you’re not helping Jin Buhuan deal with Wei Chiao, but instead, you personally came to chase after an insignificant character within the rebel army?”

At the forest entrance behind Su Changkong, a man stepped out, clad in silver armor, fully armed, with a helmet on his head. Although his facial features were not very clear, his identity could be understood from Hong Zhenxiang’s address—it was Chai Zheng!

“Damn it! How can this kid run like this? And how did Hong Zhenxiang get here?”

A myriad of astonishments filled Chai Zheng’s heart.

Chai Zheng had followed Jin Buhuan as a vanguard to attack Wei Chiao, and he spotted Su Changkong in the crowd at first glance, which instantly ignited a ruthless intent within him.

To hell with Wei Chiao and the others, who are martial artists loyal to the same sect as him; most would choose to die in battle, and even if captured alive, they wouldn’t betray him. But Chai Zheng knew Su Changkong’s identity – he was a blacksmith from the Casting Department, and it was he who had personally brought him to Wei Chiao. If Su Changkong were to survive and expose Chai Zheng’s actions, it would undoubtedly be a tremendous calamity.

Thus, Chai Zheng paid extra attention to Su Changkong. He assumed that a mere blacksmith would die amidst the chaos of the battle, but to Chai Zheng’s astonishment, Su Changkong was actually hiding a skill, with agility high enough to escape from the encirclement of the Dafeng Iron Cavalry.

Although Chai Zheng was shocked by how a blacksmith like Su Changkong possessed such exquisite Qinggong, he did not ponder over it. Instead, he immediately gave chase, determined not to let Su Changkong leave alive.

But what further startled Chai Zheng was that Hong Zhenxiang had also arrived!

“This Hong Zhenxiang’s speed is terrifying… I was breaking out from the Dafeng Iron Cavalry, and he was always lurking ahead, intercepting me.”

Su Changkong was shocked at the formidable capabilities of Hong Zhenxiang. He was clearly much stronger than Jin Buhuan, a fellow commander, and might even be the strongest among the Four Great Generals of the Dafeng Iron Cavalry!n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Chai Zheng’s expression shifted, but without panic, he said, “Commander Hong, I saw him running away, and that’s why I chased after him! No member of the rebel army should be spared!”

“Is that so?” Hong Zhenxiang stared at Chai Zheng with profound meaning, causing an involuntary sense of panic in Chai Zheng’s heart.

Jin Buhuan was supposed to be the only one coming. Why was Hong Zhenxiang here, and Chai Zheng hadn’t received any news beforehand? This led Chai Zheng to speculate uneasily.

Su Changkong’s thoughts raced. This Chai Zheng was an undercover agent within the rebel army, closely connected to Wei Chiao. It seemed that Hong Zhenxiang had sensed something and came in secret, planning to catch Chai Zheng in the act.

Given the circumstance, he might as well stoke the fire, letting them battle it out amongst themselves. The best outcome would be to have them fight directly!

With that thought, Su Changkong angrily demanded, “Lord Chai Zheng, when you were drinking with Leader Wei Chiao, you promised that if there were any movements from the Dafeng Iron Cavalry, you would inform us immediately, so why didn’t you send any message with the Iron Cavalry’s major attack today?”

The moment these words were spoken, Chai Zheng was shocked; he saw the darkening expression on Hong Zhenxiang’s face and the faint murderous intent in his eyes.

Months ago, a contingent of the Dafeng Iron Cavalry was ambushed and attacked by the rebel army, with heavy casualties, leading Hong Zhenxiang to suspect a traitor within. After some investigation and vague confirmation of Chai Zheng as the culprit, during this campaign to eradicate the rebel army, Hong Zhenxiang kept a covert watch on Chai Zheng to catch him red-handed.

Now this young man from the rebel army recognized Chai Zheng and openly spoke of his connection with Wei Chiao? This was undeniably the confirmation of that suspicion!

Su Changkong’s accusation caused Chai Zheng to become flustered, his composure falling into disarray as he furiously shouted at Su Changkong, “Su Tailai! Shut up! How does a mere blacksmith come to possess martial arts that I can’t even catch up with? Your profound infiltration into our Casting Department is surely with ill intent!”
