Those men of the Jiang Xiang faction were stunned for a while, they didn't expect that the high-ranking master would be blown away by someone with a punch, and when they reacted and wanted to attack with a knife, the young man had already jumped from the second floor and landed beside Kan Hong.

Kan Hong knew that he was not this person's opponent, so he desperately endured the pain, got up and ran out of the door. Who knew that the young man's body was very fast, and a dodge actually went around in front of Kan Hong, and punched Kan Hong's head.

I don't know if Kan Hong was frightened or didn't react fast enough, he didn't respond in time, he was punched in the face by the young man, and his whole head exploded like a smashed watermelon, and the red and white splashes were everywhere, even the boy was not spared.

"Oops, I used a lot of strength, I didn't expect to blow my head with one punch, and I must not hit my head again next time!"

The young man muttered, glancing at Kan Hong's body with regret, and then turned to leave.

There were all kinds of screams in the teahouse, and those people from the Jiang Xiang faction didn't dare to chase after the young man leaving when they looked at him, and even the head of Kan, who was the peak martial arts sect, was killed by two punches, where did these little martial artists dare enough to catch the murderer.

......

A few days later, a dusty young man came to the foot of Hutou Mountain outside Pingshan County, he was Qi An, who had killed Kan Hong, the head of the Jiangxiang faction, with two punches in Fengbo Town not long ago.

Entrenched in Hutou Mountain is a group of bandits named red-clothed thieves, whose fame is not under Liuxian Village in Qingliang Mountain, and it is also the number one thief force in the backing county, but the scale of the red-clothed thieves is much smaller than that of Liuxian Village. There are three masters in Liuxian Village, with 500 subordinates, and there is only one leader of the red-clothed thieves, that is, Zhao Hu, and there are only more than 100 people under him. It can be seen that Zhao Hu's cultivation is likely to be above Li Liuxian.

Qi An did not plan to blatantly break into the mountain like he did when he attacked Liuxian Village two years ago, but used his method to quietly walk up the mountain under the cover of trees and grass blades.

The red-clothed thieves' lair is located on the mountainside of Hutou Mountain, where there is a cave, which is said to extend in all directions and has several exits, which was arranged by the red-clothed thieves and became their base.

The information Qi An got did not indicate the location of the cave, and he needed to find it himself, in order to avoid startling the snake, Qi An acted cautiously, for fear that Zhao Hu would be prepared and escape from other caves.

In fact, it was Qi An who was too worried, and Zhao Hu, as the leader of the bandits, had been running for many years, so how could he be a rat guts who would run away when he saw someone? You must know that these bandits were all outlaws, and they lived a life of licking blood from the knife edge, so how could they be frightened by Qi An's half-sized son? Unless Qi An's fame was greater than that of Zhao Hu, Zhao Hu might be jealous and dare not respond to the battle.

Hutou Mountain is not big, but Qi An still searched for nearly two hours before finally finding a few red-clothed figures, squatting between a cliff wall full of branches and foliage to watch the wind. Qi An looked carefully, and sure enough, he saw a hole behind several people, which should be the hiding place of the red-clothed thief.

Qi An touched the edge of the cave not far away, picked up a small pebble from the ground and threw it at the distance opposite, and the sound of "pop" pierced a small tree, causing the tree to shake and the branches and leaves to rattle.

Several red-clothed thieves crouching at the entrance of the cave heard the movement, leaving one person to guard the entrance of the cave, and the rest of the people looked over there to check the situation. Qi An took advantage of this opportunity to show his fast technique, and rushed into the cave like a glimpse, and the red-clothed thieves who stayed at the entrance of the cave did not notice.

There was an oil lamp lit at intervals in the cave, and it was not as dim as expected, Qi An walked inward against the stone wall of the cave, and found several simple stone chambers on the way, and there were many red-clothed thieves in it, or chatting, or sleeping, or doing something at hand, all of them did not notice the invasion of foreign enemies.

There was a series of footsteps on the road ahead, obviously a group of people were coming from the other side, and there was no hiding place in this stone cave, seeing that the two sides were about to meet, Qi An flew up and clinged to the top of the cave like a gecko, hiding his figure in the dark area where the two oil lamps in front and behind happened to be missing.

More than twenty people below connected and passed, and no one looked up.

Of course, no one would have imagined that there was a person attached to the stone wall above their heads.

When the group was far away, Qi An fell from the top of the cave and continued to walk forward.

Soon after, Qi An found a stone room that was obviously a little different from other places, the door was opened neatly, not only was there a stone door blocking it, but there was also a red-clothed thief guarding the door on each side of the door, which was obviously an important place, and Qi An guessed that Zhao Hu was probably inside.

The cave is bare and almost uncovered, and it is extremely quiet, it is impossible to use the method of diverting the tiger from the mountain, otherwise it will be a startling snake, so Qi An planned to do it directly.

With a step under his feet, he directly used the [Moon Chasing Stars] technique, and the distance of seven or eight zhang had passed in less than half a breath, and Qi An had already rushed to the side of the two gatekeepers.

The cultivation of these two people is not high, just saw a figure appear, and before they could react, the two palms were pressed on the chests of the two of them, and the fierce palm power instantly shattered the hearts of the two people, and at the same time, blood spilled from the mouth, and they fell softly.

Qi An withdrew his palms, pushed open the stone door in front of him in a good time, and walked in.

Behind the stone gate is a spacious and neat stone room, without too many furnishings, there is a stone bed directly opposite the stone door, on which sits a bearded man, who seems to be meditating and refining qi, after hearing the sound of the stone door moving, his eyes suddenly opened, and his sharp eyes pierced Qi An who stepped into the stone room like a sword.

Qi An saw the portrait and naturally recognized that this person was the leader of the red-clothed thieves in Hutou Mountain, a wanted criminal in the court, Zhao Hu.

"Are you from the government?" Zhao Hu sat on the stone bed, he didn't move, his face was as usual, and his tone was quite calm, as if he didn't regard the uninvited guest who suddenly broke in in front of him as a threat.

"Sort of!" Qi An nodded, closing the stone door behind him, his not tall body firmly blocked the stone door, like catching a turtle in an urn, tightly holding this only exit.

Zhao Hu showed a confident smile, picked up a ghost head ring knife on the stone bed beside him, slowly stood up, and looked at Qi An condescendingly.

The ghost head ring knife should be Zhao Hu's portable weapon, unsheathed, but the knife body was wrapped with cloth strips several times, Zhao Hu said while untying the cloth strips: "Report the name, Zhao Mou's knife does not kill the nameless." ”

Qi An didn't even look at Zhao Hu's knife, just stared at Zhao Hu's eyes, and replied, "Qianqing Academy, Qi An." ”

The Qianqing Academy is a school set up by the court, although it is not an official government, it is also inseparable from the government, so when Zhao Hu asked Qi An if he was a member of the government, Qi An did not deny it.

As soon as he heard that this young man was from the Qianqing Academy, Zhao Hu didn't take Qi An even more seriously, not only because Qi An was young, but also because the students of the Qianqing Academy were all Congenital Martial Sects, once they broke through to become monks, they would leave the Qianqing Academy, and in the realm of Innate Martial Sects, Zhao Hu was very confident that he was not weaker than anyone, even if he was defeated, it was okay to save his life, so he stood on the stone bed with the knife in his hand, the tip of the knife pointed at Qi An from afar, and said indifferently: "Let's shoot!"

Qi An was not polite, and said "Be careful" in his mouth, then flew up and punched Zhao Hu in the chest.

Zhao Hu slashed down with a horizontal knife and slashed at the opponent's arm, who knew that Qi An didn't dodge at all, his moves remained the same, and it was still a punch.

With a sound of gold and iron, the ghost head ring knife slashed Qi An's arm, but it only cut a layer of cloth, and it couldn't be cut anymore, but a powerful counterattack force bounced the blade away, and the fist continued to blast forward like a bamboo, imprinted on Zhao Hu's chest.

"Oops!" Zhao Hu was taken aback, but he didn't have time to dodge, he punched hard in the chest, and his burly body was shocked and flew backwards, hitting the stone wall hard.

Qi An slowly withdrew his fist and teased: "I told you to be careful, but you didn't take it seriously." ”

"Do you have a treasure armor to protect yourself?" Zhao Hu got up and spat out a mouthful of blood.

But without waiting for Qi An to answer, Zhao Hu saw the white skin exposed inside from Qi An's torn sleeve, and couldn't help but freeze.

"You're thinking too much. Qi An smiled slightly, "But there should be something on you, the punch just now hit you like it hit an iron plate." ”

As soon as Zhao Hu tore open his upper clothes, he saw that there was a sleeveless iron armor inside, a sunken fist mark on his chest, and a few shocking cracks.

From this point of view, Zhao Hu is still a little cautious, as a peak martial artist, he actually put a heavy iron armor on his clothes, but unfortunately it can't completely block Qi An's fist attack, this iron armor is basically scrapped.

Zhao Hu's face became solemn for the first time, judging from the power of the punch he received just now, the strength of the young man on the opposite side was very great, and he had only seen it in Zhao Hu's life, and he had already reached the attack threshold of the Qi Condensation Realm.

But he didn't know that Qi An only used four points of strength for Fang Cai's punch, otherwise he would have broken through the iron armor.

The iron armor was seriously damaged and useless, so Zhao Hu took it off and threw it on the ground with a clatter.

I saw Zhao Hu naked, showing strong muscles, holding a knife in one hand, and putting on a posture, once he put away his contempt, he regarded Qi An as a great enemy of life and death, and took the initiative to attack, the knife flashed, and instantly slashed in front of Qi An's eyes.

Qi An's main purpose in receiving the bounty task was to hone his martial arts skills, rather than simply killing people to get rewards, so he still only used four points of strength, and even deliberately protected his torso and head from being attacked by the other party, and took a conservative way to fight with Zhao Hu.
