Chapter 53 Counterattack
After several failed attempts at getting rid of the opponent, Song Changming lost his patience and burst out with brute force, forcing the opponent away with his sword.

The other party retreated lightly like a willow leaf, and was replaced by three other masked men who tried to surround Song Changming.

Song Changming knew clearly that these four men were no ordinary people. Once surrounded, even if he was strong, he would not be able to deal with them with only a knife in his hand.

He immediately used his light body skills, exerted force on his feet, jumped ten feet high, and turned over to avoid the siege of three people.

His body twisted in the air, and before he landed on the ground, his long sword had already performed the Flying Swallow Style and unexpectedly stabbed one of them.

The man seemed not to have expected that Song Changming could still dodge and fight back when he was surrounded by the three of them at the same time, and he hastily raised his knife to parry.

Song Changming swung his sword three times before landing, as fast as lightning.

The opponent could only barely block his first two flying swallow-style sword strikes. The third sword strike suddenly changed direction and he used the Soul-Breaking Sword. The blade swept across his neck, and his head was immediately thrown out, bleeding on the spot.

This wave of killings, which was completed in one go, utilized almost all of his current knowledge.

He knew that if he didn't kill one person at the beginning, the subsequent battle situation would only be more disadvantageous to him.

On the other side, the remaining three people were shocked and realized that the information was wrong!
It was said that he only mastered one set of sword skills at the great perfection stage, but now it seems that his sword skills have reached the perfect state, and he even has more than one set of sword skills, as well as light body skills.
Song Changming's strength was far beyond what the intelligence described before they arrived.

Originally, it was thought that sending out the four of them would make this an assassination mission a sure success.

Now it seems that if the assassination fails, encirclement and killing will be possible!

Seeing that the three men's attack had temporarily paused, Song Changming took the initiative to attack and killed one of them.

He had some impression of the broad-bladed knife in the man's hand, which was very similar to the weapon in the hand of Cao Fushan, whom he killed.

Even after fighting, he found that the opponent's sword skills were very similar, which made it difficult for him not to connect the people in front of him with Cao Fushan and the Tengyashan bandits.

Such a speculation flashed through his mind, but as he was currently engaged in a fight, he had no time to observe or think carefully.

In fact, these four people all have great sword skills, and they cooperate with each other tacitly and have rich combat experience.

Song Changming is facing four experienced patrol captain-level enemies at the same time, so he must not be careless.

Fortunately, I had already killed one person, and then I had to deal with the remaining three people, so the pressure was relatively less.

In a blink of an eye, after dozens of fierce sword battles, Song Changming's Yin Gui sword power had reached its peak. Under the sweeping Yin wind, it completely suppressed the sword power of the three people in front of him.

After a hundred slashes, the ghost bit one of them again and killed him.

"Let's go!" Seeing this, the remaining two people knew that the assassination mission was no longer possible, so they immediately decided to retreat.

"Go? Did I agree?"

Song Changming's sword style changed into a flying swallow style.

Although the level of mastery of this Flying Swallow style sword skill is far inferior to that of the Soul-Breaking Sword, it is most compatible with his light body skills.

Flying swallows are all around, agile and swift, and when this set of martial arts is performed together, both can unleash their maximum power.

It is more useful than the Soul-Breaking Sword when chasing and blocking the enemy.

"You go first!" One of them realized that there was no way both of them could escape, so he made a prompt decision to stay and hold Song Changming back.

Let the companion with excellent light body skills leave first.

"Okay!" The companion, the masked man who first caught up with Song Changming and launched an attack, did not act pretentiously and just left alone.

"For the sake of your companions, you are willing to give up your life?" Song Changming said coldly, but the knife in his hand was sharper than before.

"Everything is for the greater good!" The masked man who stayed behind roared and drew his sword very aggressively, as if he wanted to die with Song Changming. However, Song Changming's Soul-Breaking Sword was so powerful that it was impenetrable, so the masked man in front of him had no chance to hurt him.

After only holding out for less than ten moves, the masked man's passion was extinguished by Song Changming, his limbs were broken, and he fainted.

If Song Changming hadn't intended to keep him alive, this man would have died even faster.

Then, Song Changming chased in the direction the last masked man fled.

Just as he was trying to guess the other party's escape route, he suddenly heard the sound of fighting not far away and rushed over immediately.

They were surprised to find that the masked man who had escaped was fighting with the patrol team brought by Lu Gang in an alley.

It can only be said that this person's luck was not on his side today. When he was running away, he happened to run into Lu Gang who came over.

Song Changming followed up and knocked the man unconscious with the back of his knife, and captured him alive.

"What's going on?" Lu Gang asked with a frown.

The fight just now made him realize that the masked man was very powerful.

If Song Changming had not arrived in time, he might not have been able to keep the other party.

"Come with me." Song Changming led Lu Gang and others to the houses they had been there before.

At this time, Jiang Chunzi and the patrol team had also arrived here and were guarding the body.

"Wang Xianwen?!" Lu Gang saw Wang Xianwen's body on the ground and looked at Song Changming suddenly.

"I killed the man." Song Changming nodded.

"!" Lu Gang's heart sank, and he said anxiously, "No matter what the reason is, privately killing a colleague is a serious crime."

"I know, don't worry." Song Changming simply told Lu Gang what had just happened without reservation.

Lu Gang finally calmed down and shook his head, saying, "This Wang Xianwen is really crazy. How could he suddenly set up a trap against you?"

After knowing the whole story, he thought Wang Xianwen deserved to die.

As for Song Changming, this wave of killings of his colleagues was entirely self-defense and a special situation, so he was not guilty at all.

“I originally thought these people were assassins from the Dark Night Pavilion who had made a comeback, but later I observed that they might be in the same group as the bandits from Tengya Mountain.

You are right. Killing Cao Fushan brought me the reward, but also brought me these troubles."

Song Changming looked at the several dead and injured masked men on the ground and said slowly.

Lu Gang had warned him before that he might be targeted by the bandits for revenge, and now it actually happened.

"Fortunately, you are safe this time." Lu Gang sighed.

In other words, Song Changming was strong enough to protect himself, otherwise if it were any other patrol captain, under this intensity of ambush, and with their unintentional actions, they would most likely not have survived.

I have to say, this bandit army is really rampant.

Even when the whole city was under martial law and a thorough investigation was underway, they withdrew their personnel while ordering the assassination of government officials.

"Take these two living people and the corpse back for examination and interrogation. This matter must not be spread out for the time being, understand?" Lu Gang ordered his men around him.

The death of Wang Xianwen and the assassination of Song Changming were no small matters in the Houli Street Patrol.
