Zhou Jing only glanced at Guard Zhao, before holding the spear in one hand and tapping the tip of the spear forward, assuming a welcoming stance.

Seeing this, Guard Zhao roared before stabbing forward with his spear.

The pressure from his spear blew against Zhou Jing’s face, showing that the strike carried his full force and weight.

From the looks of it, he was even stronger than Wu Zhen, who had died in his hands.

Zhou Jing’s expression did not change. He raised his spear and shook it, easily blocking his opponent’s spear shaft. With a clang, he easily deflected his opponent’s weapon.

Without waiting for Guard Zhao to change his move, Zhou Jing moved like a rabbit. He held the spear with both hands and stabbed it at his chest. As fast as lightning, he thrust towards Guard Zhao’s heart.

Splat!

The tip of the spear pierced through his chest.

Zhou Jing shook his hand and pulled out his spear, bringing out a stream of blood that dyed the tip of the spear red.

“What a fast spear!”

That was the last thought Guard Zhao had. He only saw a blur before his heart was pierced. It was so fast that he could not defend himself at all.

His eyes widened as all the strength in his body flowed out. He fell to the ground, and a pool of blood expanded under him. Soon, he was dead.

Zhou Jing not only relied on brute force, but also used his spear techniques. In a flash, this guard who was quite skilled in martial arts became a ghost under his spear. He was no match for him at all!

With someone dead, the commotion in the venue immediately stopped, and the crowd could not help but panic.

Many of the servants seemed to have their throats pinched. They immediately could not cry out, and their hearts turned cold.

This murderer really dared to kill in public?!

At this moment, Zhou Jing glanced around and shouted,

“Who else wants to step up?!”

“How dare you kill my senior brother! I’ll teach you a lesson!”

The other guard was furious. Without another word, he charged forward with a broadsword.

Zhou Jing raised his spear and moved his feet. By predicting the guard’s movements, he only needed to take small steps to easily avoid the continuous slashes and stabs of the broadsword.

After letting this person use three to four moves, Zhou Jing aimed at the empty space and suddenly thrust out his spear.

The tip of the spear passed through the gap between the blade lights and stabbed into the guard’s neck from below.

Pssh!

Zhou Jing pulled out his spear and swung it, drawing a splashing shape on the limestone tiles.

The guard followed suit. A hole was opened in his neck, and he fell to the ground, clutching his throat.

Seeing that both of their experts had been killed by Zhou Jing, the guards’ hearts trembled. They finally realized… this murderer’s martial arts were terrifyingly high. They were definitely not his match in a one-on-one battle!

“It’s troublesome, let’s go together!”

Someone roared. The group of guards did not dare to fight alone and attacked together.

At the same time, the many servants also suppressed the fear in their hearts. The hundreds of companions beside them gave them confidence. They also shouted loudly and attacked with their staffs.

“Ha, good timing!”

Zhou Jing laughed loudly. He held his spear and rushed into the sea of people alone.

All the weapons around him attacked. He spun the spear continuously and deflected all the enemy’s weapons, preventing them from touching him.

Then, Zhou Jing held the spear with both hands and shook it. The tip of the spear immediately produced an afterimage. Then, he quickly tapped it repeatedly, and the tip resembled a serpent on the hunt, stabbing through the throats and hearts of the guards in front of him.

In his hand, the spear was as mighty as a dragon, domineering and fierce. Sometimes, it would sweep across, sweeping away a large number of servants. Sometimes, it would smash downwards, breaking people and sticks into two. Sometimes, it would soar upwards, sending bodies flying into the sky and crashing into the crowd.

In the blink of an eye, group after group of people fell to the ground. Blood flowed everywhere, and the situation was tragic.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

A spear caused a strong wind to whistle, containing the power to split rocks. It was like a black dragon wreaking havoc in the sea, circling and extending its claws, stirring up huge waves in the crowd.

This murderous figure rampaged through the layers of people. The iron spear in his hand could easily take people’s lives, bringing with it a massacre — he was really the soul reaper of the Netherworld, the living Yama King!

“This Chen Feng simply has the courage of an undead!”

The commoners watching the commotion outside were all shocked. Only then did they finally know why Zhou Jing dared to come alone.

The crowd panicked and exclaimed, causing a commotion. More and more people heard the commotion, and more and more people gathered outside to watch.

During this period, two officials passed by. They pushed open the crowd and took a look at the entrance of the He Residence. Their faces immediately turned pale from fright. Without another word, they turned around and left. The only thought they had was to go back and report to their superiors. They did not want to get involved personally at all.

In the residence, the He family members in charge were all frightened when they saw Zhou Jing’s ferocity.

They could no longer treat this matter casually like before and maintain their calm attitude. At this moment, they only felt difficulty breathing, and their hearts were filled with the most primitive fear as cold sweat broke out on their backs.

At this moment, the butler of the He family hurriedly came to the side of the heads of the He family and said anxiously.

“Masters, it’s dangerous here. Your bodies are precious, so you can’t be injured at all. It’s better to return to the backyard to hide first. This person is only showing off his might for a moment, but he won’t have the strength after a while. With hundreds of guards, we will definitely be able to take down this murderer. After the guards deal with this person, I’ll inform the masters.”

“Alright, alright… We’re kind-hearted and can’t stand such bloodshed. Take him down as soon as possible.”

The He family members hurriedly handed over the matter to the steward. Under the protection of a few guards, they left the front yard and hurriedly turned to the backyard. They were too frightened by Zhou Jing and did not dare to stay here to watch.

…

At the same time, in the backyard of the He Residence.

Gao Yun and Fang Zhen quietly climbed over the wall and hid in a corner of a room, surveying the surroundings.

Almost all the servants and guards of the He Residence had been led to the front yard by Zhou Jing and were fighting with all their might. Even in the inner courtyard of the residence, one could hear the clear shouts and screams.
