Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey!

The night envelops everything, raindrops fall steadily, casting down the dust of the world.

In this narrow alley, there are two Melt God Realm experts vying for supremacy in the air, while a pair of enemies on the ground engage in a fierce spear match.

Lu Feng, Zhang Dingbian.

Heirs of the Yue Family Spear, both considered notable descendants, originally fellow disciples, but now become deadly foes.

At this moment, Lu Feng holds the Liquan Divine Spear left behind by General Yue, and sneers at Zhang Dingbian opposite him, his eyes burning with wild fury.

He has already killed their master and does not mind killing one more junior disciple.

However, Zhang Dingbian, with his Eight-foot Steel Spear in hand, stands tall with a formidable posture and a solemn expression, his eyes filled with determination and anger—such a disciple must be killed for killing the master!

Yet, looking at Lu Feng, there’s a brief moment of hesitation in his eyes because his relationship with Lu Feng was actually quite good; Lu Feng even bestowed kindness upon him.

Zhang Dingbian’s background was not good, he had begged for food and almost starved to death until he encountered the master with a young Lu Feng. Lu Feng saw Zhang Dingbian begging pitifully by the roadside, and his master discerned Zhang Dingbian’s extraordinary potential with a glance.

In fact, if it wasn’t for Lu Feng saying back then: That little beggar is so pitiful.

He might have missed his destined mentor, so he constantly felt grateful to his Senior Brother despite later being intentionally distanced from him due to his rapid progress. Zhang Dingbian endured this with an open heart without feeling any dissatisfaction.

Constantly deferring to his Senior Brother, who would have thought that his Senior Brother would commit the atrocity of killing their master, an unforgivable act even though Zhang Dingbian was being accommodating.

Reflecting, Zhang Dingbian’s gaze grew firm and cold; he resolved to completely eliminate the person in front of him. At that moment, his spear seemed to reflect his mood, emitting a penetrating cold light, affirming his internal resolution.

”Senior Brother, today you won’t escape!”

Zhang Dingbian stared at Lu Feng and declared, ”I must take your life to honor the spirit of our master!”

Lu Feng looked at Zhang Dingbian and retorted, ”Second Brother, that’s not right of you, don’t forget, you are here today because I called out and alerted the master, otherwise you wouldn’t know which corner you’d be starving and freezing to death!”

Upon hearing this, Zhang Dingbian stared at Lu Feng and responded, ”Lu Feng, I owe you, I will repay, but how will you repay what you owe to our master?”

Lu Feng scoffed, ”Repay what? Is there anything worth repaying? Was it wrong for me to prosper and want our master to live well?”

”Then why kill the master?”

”Who told that old fool not to appreciate opportunities? I spoke kindly, offering him a chance to serve the court, and what did he do? He wanted to strip me of my martial arts, calling me disrespectful to our ancestors. Ha! Don’t I know my ancestors’ fate?”

”Summon, summon, and ultimately drink a poisoned cup into the afterlife. Instead of that, much freedom in my own way. And as for glorifying the family name, aren’t I shining now? Isn’t my rank now comparable to my ancestors’?”

Saying this, Lu Feng stared again at Zhang Dingbian and declared, ”Junior Brother, let me call you Junior Brother once more. Your talent actually surpasses mine, and you have military capabilities, which are all needed by the court. Listen to your senior, join the court, and I assure you, high ranks to hold, fine horses to ride, money and beauties in abundance—isn’t it delightful!”

Upon hearing this, Zhang Dingbian shouted angrily, ”Pah, I don’t care for that!”

Lu Feng sighed, ”Then there’s no way around it; if you’re so obstinate, then you’ll accompany our old master into the afterlife!”

With that said, Lu Feng took the initiative, his Liquan Divine Spear slicing through the sky, producing a sharp whistling sound, akin to a dark lightning bolt, thrusting towards Zhang Dingbian’s throat amid the rainy night.

Zhang Dingbian reacted quickly, seeing Lu Feng make the first move. He stretched out his hand, grabbed his Eight-foot Steel Spear, and vigorously angled it, with a stance that seemed to counter significant weight with minimal effort, precisely colliding with Lu Feng’s Liquan Divine Spear. Subsequently, two powerful forces clashed intensely, sparks flew as the immense recoil force caused both to involuntarily step back several paces.

Clang!

The Eight-foot Steel Spear directly stabbed into the ground behind him, halting Zhang Dingbian’s retreat, while Lu Feng similarly stopped his momentum with the same technique.

At this moment, both subtly hid their right hands behind them, the previous collision numbing their right hands.

Zhang Dingbian halted, but suddenly he lunged forward, forcefully swung his spear, fiercely aiming at Lu Feng.

Lu Feng narrowed his gaze and quickly dodged, with a loud slap, the spear struck the ground, sparks flew, dust billowed, and Zhang Dingbian cleverly utilized the spear’s rebound to retrieve it back to his hands, then grasped it with both hands, and the spearhead instantly darted towards Lu Feng’s abdomen with lightning speed.

Lu Feng furrowed his brow—Flood Dragon Flipping River—indeed, Zhang Dingbian was employing Flood Dragon Flipping River as he watched the spear thrusting toward him.

Lu Feng swiftly drew back his Liquan Divine Spear, slightly avoiding the sharp edge, then with a wrist flick, the spear in his hand darted like a serpent, instantaneously creating layered afterimages, thrusting continuously from various angles, engulfing Zhang Dingbian within.

In an instant, he found himself amidst a spear shadow, but Zhang Dingbian was not panicked. Seeing the surrounding spear shadows, he immediately swung his spear to defend and counter.
