Martial Saint: Starting with Accumulating Experience

Dark clouds obscured the moonlight, and the stars were nowhere to be seen.

The night wind swept through the quiet streets and alleys of Pingcheng, scattering the last few withered leaves from under the eaves.

Chen Feng tightened his clothes and trouser legs, and taking advantage of the fact that no one was around, he leaped up, flipped in the air, flew over the high wall, and landed easily in the Lin family courtyard.

The Lin family had many servants, and there were guards patrolling at night. Chen Feng carefully concealed his figure and tried not to make any noise.

And it changes location from time to time.

Sometimes they would quietly hide behind the artificial hill, and sometimes they would lie atop the high wall, and no one would notice them.

After a series of investigations, Chen Feng had roughly figured out the Lin family's layout.

It's a large house with two courtyards.

Lin Chong'an and his wife, Zhang, slept in the main room of the second courtyard.

The east and west wing rooms were empty, presumably belonging to Lin Yan and Lin Jingshu. As for the maids and servants, they lived in the side rooms on either side of the main building.

Chen Feng even went to great lengths to find out where the Bone Forging Realm guard lived.

They eventually discovered that the person was in the outer courtyard.

I live with the housekeeper.

Chen Feng was overjoyed; the farther away they were, the better, as it would make it easier for him to make his move.

He didn't want to cause too much of a commotion.

After fully understanding the situation, Chen Feng quietly passed through the hanging flower gate and entered the inner courtyard, crouching down and hiding behind a pillar under the main hall's porch.

The dark clothes blended into the night, and even breathing was kept to a minimum.

The window paper in front of me let in a dim, yellowish light, and I could faintly hear some sounds.

The people inside haven't gone to sleep yet.

They seem to be talking about something.

Chen Feng held his breath, slowly approached, and gently touched the cool windowsill with his fingertips.

Inside the room, hushed voices leaked out through the cracks in the wooden window, their sounds faint and weak.

But in front of Chen Feng, who was at the Bone Forging Realm, every word was clear and penetrated his eardrums.

"...I wonder how Jing Shu is doing now that she's gone to the provincial capital, and I also wonder how Shu Xian did on his exams."

Zhang's voice carried a hint of expectation.

In her eyes, Li Shuxian was already a golden son-in-law, and if he passed the imperial examination, he would be an even more fortunate son-in-law.

"Soon, they should be back by the time the results are released in September," Lin Chong'an said in a low voice.

"That'll still be almost a month away..."

Listening to the conversation between the two people inside, Chen Feng thought to himself, "Time really flies."

Autumn is almost here in the blink of an eye.

"..."

For some reason, the room suddenly fell silent, and the two fell silent.

Just as Chen Feng was about to walk away from the window.

Zhang's voice, filled with gritted teeth, drifted out of the window.

"Master, I sent someone to the Dragon Martial Arts School to inquire, and that little beast is still alive..."

Chen Feng's eyes narrowed.

Zhang continued:

"Those Black Tiger Gang members and Xie Fei are utterly useless; they can't even handle this small matter."

Her voice still carried a hint of urgency.

"If that little bastard really gets ahead, he'll definitely come looking for trouble. We must crush him before he gets any power!"

Hearing him call someone a beast so often made Chen Feng furious.

"Don't worry, I've already asked Manager Li to help us with this. He knows a lot of people, he'll definitely have a way."

Lin Chong'an's calm voice rang out.

"Manager Li?"

"It's the one from the Li family; they changed their surname to Li a few days ago."

"Then why did you invite them to the Li family's place? We've been troubling them all the time; we don't want them to develop a bad impression of Jing Shu."

Ms. Zhang was a little worried that her daughter would be affected by this.

"Otherwise, could I possibly ask Steward Li for help? Only Steward Li in the Li family knows about this matter."

"Besides, Manager Li is only willing to help because of Jing Shu."

Chen Feng, who was by the window, listened attentively.

I was afraid of missing any details.

"Then you should give him plenty of gifts, and hopefully he'll take good care of our Jing Shu..."

"Know."

Then came intermittent curses, all directed at Chen Feng, such as, "Why is it that my son is dead, but he's still alive and well?"

Chen Feng sneered inwardly.

Even if you two die, I will still live well.

I'll send you down for a reunion later.

Just then, a rustling sound came from inside the house, which seemed to be the sound of someone getting up and changing clothes.

"Where are you going?" Zhang asked.

"Going to the toilet..."

Heavy footsteps approached.

Hearing the footsteps getting closer, Chen Feng quickly retreated into the shadows.

Wait quietly.

Soon after, the door creaked open.

Lin Chong'an's slightly chubby figure came into Chen Feng's view.

However, he did not notice Chen Feng.

They simply crossed the courtyard quickly and headed towards the separate bathroom outside.

Chen Feng immediately followed, trailing behind Lin Chong'an, gradually getting closer...

Getting closer...

Closer...

When they were less than a foot apart, Chen Feng decisively stepped forward and clawed at Lin Chong'an's neck with his right hand.

With a little force applied to the fingers.

The person in his arms tilted their head to the side and died.

After Lin Chong'an died, the urine in his bladder suddenly became uncontrollable and flowed out all at once, soaking his lower body.

Chen Feng quickly let go.

The body fell to the ground with a thud, and the yellowish-brown urine spread out on the ground.

In front of Chen Feng, a martial artist at the Bone Forging Realm, Lin Chong'an didn't even have a chance to scream.

He didn't do much with Lin Chong'an's body, just casually left a note with the word "Leave" written on it.

They prepared to stage a gang feud.

In recent days, the major gangs in Pingcheng's inner city have been frantically expanding their territory and seizing market share, which has caused resentment among many smaller factions.

They resisted.

However, the consequences were intimidation, threats, and even having warning notes broken into their homes.

The Lin family is the same.

The only Bone Forging Realm martial artist in the family was invited for this reason.

However, since they had the Li family as a backer, they weren't too worried and simply hired an old man whose health was declining.

Chen Feng decided to use this incident to his advantage.

"So, what's next..."

Chen Feng strode towards the main house.

"Creak..."

Chen Feng pushed open the wooden door.

Inside the main room, candlelight flickered, and several lampstands stood on both sides of the room, casting a warm yellow glow throughout.

A long screen separated the two, making it impossible for them to see each other clearly.

Chen Feng first extinguished the candle on the lampstand, plunging the room into complete darkness.

"Is the master going to sleep? Why did you turn off the light?"

Zhang's questioning voice rang out.

However, she was met with a long silence.

Even in such a dark environment, Chen Feng could still see the layout of the room.

He walked around the screen step by step.

Standing in front of the bed.

"master?......!"

Before Zhang could react, Chen Feng had already grabbed her neck and forcefully pulled her off the bed.

With a bit of force.

Twist the neck.

In a daze, the system's voice sounded—

[Assassination...]

[Experience +1000]

Chen Feng didn't pay much attention to it. After killing the man, he quickly left the scene.

Under the cover of night, he hid in the shadows, evaded the patrolling guards, quietly climbed over the high wall, and landed steadily on the ground outside, just as he had entered.

The trip was very fruitful.

Not only were two threats eliminated, but he also learned that the Li family's steward would send people to target him.

"The Li family..."

Li Shuxian is there.

Chen Feng will have to face the Li family sooner or later.

It won't be like the Lin family then, with only one old man in the Bone Forging Realm buried halfway in the ground in a big mansion.

His thoughts raced.

He was pondering how to deal with the behemoth that was the Li family.
