Chapter 153: Strategic Retreat

Qiu Peng let out a long roar, and the long sword in his hand was drawn to the left, and suddenly emitted a dazzling light, like a bay of autumn water, and looked at Shao Jun and stabbed at him. The strong sword qi produced a burst of vibration in the surrounding air, making the air around the sword qi seem to produce a strange depression, and in the eyes of onlookers, Qiu Peng suddenly felt a bending and bending feeling in this sword, making people unable to see the true direction of this sword.

At the moment when the tip of the sword was dazzling, Shao Jun closed his eyes instead, and with a soft click, the long knife in his hand slashed out, and the strong wind slashed right on the tip of Qiu Peng's sword. The two forces collided, and there was a muffled sound, Qiu Peng's sword tip continued to tremble, his wrist was sore, he took three steps back, and retreated back to the big stone he was standing on just now. Still exactly the same position. It gives a very mysterious feeling.

Qiu Peng took a few breaths, knowing in his heart that in terms of strength, he was still slightly inferior to him by three points, plus Shao Jun's long knife was easier to exert than his own long sword, so he could be regarded as suffering a loss just now.

As soon as he made a move with his opponent, Qiu Peng understood very clearly that the other party had reached the realm of a super-first-class powerhouse, and was already a powerhouse at the same level as Wu Xianshui, Lu Yuanbo and Principal Zhuang.

But Qiu Peng was not discouraged at all, but had a stronger determination to win.

Shao Jun looked at Qiu Peng who retreated, although Qiu Peng was retreated by himself, but his momentum did not weaken in the slightest, but became more and more frustrated, and he was slightly surprised in his heart, it seems that Qiu Peng's strength has also reached the level second only to the peak of first-class masters, but compared with himself, it is really too far behind.

So he said casually: "Take the knife." After speaking, the long knife struck out, and the originally shiny long knife was flashing with a black light at this moment, which looked extremely weird.

A smile appeared at the corner of Shao Jun's mouth, when the knife started, it was very slow, but it accelerated rapidly on the way, and when the long knife was about to approach Qiu Peng, the speed had reached Cheng Dù, which was impossible to distinguish with his eyes.

The change of this long knife from extremely slow to extremely fast was so clear and so abrupt that everyone's hearts suddenly shook.

Qiu Peng was also surprised by his strange speed change, the long knife was already approaching, Qiu Peng suddenly retreated, and behind his back, ten zhang away, was the huge waterfall.

But as soon as he retreated, it was not to jump off the waterfall, Qiu Peng only retreated a few zhang xu, as if he was threatened by Shao Jun's knife momentum, and couldn't stand the powerful knife power, so he avoided the edge for the time being.

Shao Jun secretly rejoiced in his heart, his sword skills were the heaviest, if he could get an advantage when he started, he would be able to fight more and more bravely, so that the enemy would never be able to pull back the draw, and in the end he would only be defeated.

Shao Jun stepped up his sword momentum to block Qiu Peng's waist and slash at him, and he had already planned the offensive of the following three knives in his heart, because whenever he retreated with the first knife, there would be no chance to fight back below.

Who knows, when Shao Jun pursued in front of Qiu Peng, Qiu Peng was already standing in the river with both feet at the moment, shouting, pressing his left hand downward, the cold light in front of him was dazzling, the long sword in his hand was drawn from his side, and thousands of dazzling lights flashed in front of him, which turned out to be water droplets raised on the long sword.

Each drop of water was attached to Qiu Peng's strange energy, and under the shining of the sun, it looked crystal clear.

These water droplets are arranged in a peculiar order, and the strangest thing is that when Shao Jun's knife comes over, every drop of water droplets falls on the path that his knife must pass. Therefore, Shao Jun's knife just split all the water droplets in half and spilled them down.

The power contained in each drop of water droplets naturally cannot be compared with Shao Jun's knife momentum, but all their water droplets can have a little delaying effect on his knife momentum, so when Shao Jun's knife slashed in front of Qiu Peng, both momentum and strength had already slowed down.

Only then did Qiu Peng swing his sword to block, and with a bang, the long sword, which was already in countless gaps, couldn't stand the impact of the long knife, and it folded in two. Qiu Peng was also hit by this powerful blow, and he fell back two feet.

Suddenly, the water splashed in all directions. It turned out that when Qiu Peng attacked, he found that Shao Jun's strength was better than his own, and at this moment, seeing Shao Jun's sword full of momentum and strength, he knew that it was not possible to take it hard, but he also felt that Shao Jun's knife posture could never be dodged, and once a defensive position was formed, it would be difficult to pull it back, so he thought of a way to retreat and use the power of water to reduce his knife momentum.

Even so, Qiu Peng was still cut back three feet by this knife, and his wrist was sore again.

Only then did Qiu Peng know that Shao Jun's sword skills were really worthy of his reputation, saying that he was a level of Wu Xianshui, and he really had his extraordinary. Compared with all the masters he had encountered before, except for Wu Xianshui, Lu Yuanbo, and Principal Zhuang, I am afraid that they are all better.

Qiu Peng just stood firm, but found that more than a dozen people lined up in a fan shape just now, one of the deputy generals was originally standing on his side, and at this time he saw that he had retreated twice in a row, only three or four feet away from the waterfall cliff, and suddenly took a few strides and stood behind Qiu Peng, blocking the way between Qiu Peng and the cliff.

Qiu Peng was surprised for a while, because according to Shao Jun, if Qiu Peng was willing to jump off the cliff by himself, the chance of survival was not as big as Shao Jun's death.

Why, then, does the first mate involuntarily run behind him to prevent himself from escaping from the waterfall side?

The result is obvious, the lieutenant did this action subconsciously and without any thought.

Qiu Peng turned his head and glanced at Shao Jun, and saw Shao Jun glancing at the deputy general, the anger in his eyes flashed, and he suddenly shouted in his heart: "I have changed my mind! ”

After speaking, there was a long roar, and the flying long sword pointed directly at the lieutenant general. The lieutenant drew the long knife at his waist and matched Qiu Peng's broken sword, and Qiu Peng jumped up with his strength, crossed over the head of the lieutenant, and rushed towards the cliff of the waterfall.

"Where to go!" Shao Jun shouted angrily, he was really angry at this moment, the black qi on the knife was very strong, and there was a feeling as if he was going to devour the light, and chased after Qiu Pengfei.

Seeing Qiu Peng jumping off the cliff, Shao Jun took off his hand and threw the long knife that exuded black gas in his hand, and the long knife drew an arc of light in the air, leaving a long knife mark on Qiu Peng's back, and blood burst out in the air.

The long knife spun in the air and flew back, and Shao Jun reached out to catch it. After taking two steps forward, he had come to the edge of the cliff, and when he looked down, the water flowing down dozens of zhang high, the sound of the water rumbling and deafening, giving Shao Jun the illusion that the whole earth was trembling.

Shao Jun watched for a long time, but he didn't see Qiu Peng floating up from the water, he hesitated for a long time, he really didn't want to risk jumping down, because no one knew how deep it was below, and jumping down now was basically half life and death.

He had just lied to Qiu Peng that he was very familiar with the terrain here, and even made up a name for the river, which was actually a statement he made for Qiu Peng.

This place is far away from the familiar mountain and forest areas for more than 100 miles, and there are no untouched barren mountains and mountains, and Shao Jun is not familiar with the nearby terrain. He is more cautious and does not like to take risks. Shao Jun turned his head and gave the lieutenant a slap, "Stupid thing!"

The lieutenant's face immediately swollen, and the force used this time showed the anger in Shao Jun's heart.

Shao Jun looked at the distant river hatefully, and felt sorry for so much effort in his heart, which made Qiu Peng believe that jumping down was a place of death, and he thought that he could finally put Qiu Peng to death smoothly, but he didn't expect to be flawed at the last moment by his lieutenant general, a fool who had no scheming.

It turned out that Shao Jun had indeed discovered Qiu Peng's actions a long time ago, but he had never been careful not to alarm him, and first sent people downstream to block Qiu Peng's retreat.

Because since Shao Jun took over the task of chasing and killing Qiu Peng, he has carefully studied and inquired about Li Gang's previous pursuit and killing, and found that every time Qiu Peng stays, there will be a retreat that is difficult to round up, and Qiu Peng's final escape is related to this retreat.

Therefore, the first thing Shao Jun did was to block the river.

Unfortunately, the soldiers who went downstream to reconnoiter reported that after the river reached the waterfall, all the banks of the river were vertical cliffs, and it was impossible to go down, so it was impossible to block the river. In desperation, Shao Juncai came up with this plan to attack the heart, pretending to be an iōng and a bamboo that didn't care about Qiu Peng jumping off the cliff at all, and made Qiu Peng fight a decisive battle with himself.
