Chapter Thirty-Five: Combo Techniques

  After cleaning up everything, Lin Wu suddenly felt that he didn't have the slightest feeling of discomfort because of his first kill. In fact, it was because the original owner of this body had memories that were entirely composed of bloodshed, and now that these memories had become Lin Wu's, they also made him immune to slaughter.

  Lin Wu then put on the black robe, as his clothes were already stained with blood from the earlier battle. It was not suitable for him to walk out like this. Moreover, Lin Wu did not have any spare clothes, only a black robe, so he had no choice but to go back and change.

  Sneaking into the Rose family, Lin Wu was about to sneak into his own hut when he found Alice already sitting inside, waiting for him.

  As soon as Lin Wu stepped into the house, he saw Alice immediately turn around and walk out. "Stop!!" Alice wouldn't let Lin Wu off so easily, having waited for him here for so long, she had a belly full of grievances.

  "Huh? What a heavy smell of blood?" Alice's voice came to Lin Wu's side, and her nose smelled a strong smell of blood.

  "Oh, I just saw a family slaughtering a pig and got splashed when I passed by. Alright, hurry back, little girl." Lin Wu said, seeing that he couldn't avoid it.

  "Really?" Alice asked half-doubtfully, and suddenly she pulled away the black cloak from Lin Wu's body. Instantly, Lin Wu appeared before her with his whole body covered in bloodstains.

  "Kobayashi, what's wrong with you?" Alice stared at Lin Wu, momentarily at a loss.

  "It's okay, it's okay." Lin Wu hastily said, seeing the tears welling up in Alice's eyes. As he spoke, to increase credibility, Lin Wu took off his clothes, revealing a body that had been restored by the life medicine, without even a single scar.

  "Are you kidding me?" Alice stared at Lin Wu, who was topless, her eyes wide with wonder as she scrutinized him, a faint blush rising to her cheeks.

  "It's absolutely fine. Alright little girl, hurry up and go." Lin Wu said as he pushed Alice out of the house.

  After pushing Alice away with a "hiss", Lin Wu immediately picked up a bucket of water, washed off the bloodstains on his body, and then changed into a new set of clothes.

  Then Lin Wu sat on the bed to cultivate, this battle can be said to be Lin Wu's first time using his full strength, the high-level swordsmen at the peak of the black-clothed man all died under Lin Wu's sword, but in this luck and those life potions and other game items accounted for a larger proportion, which also increased Lin Wu's conviction that he would become stronger, because next time no one can guarantee that luck will always be on his side, and those potions are consumables that have a day to be used up.

  ……

  At the moment of Lin Wu's cultivation, in the Rose family, Wu Bo was talking to Ailina, and the focus was on the two medicinal pills that Lin Wu had taken to auction.

  "Miss, news from the auction house has arrived. A man in black robes is preparing to sell two kinds of medicine at the auction house, with astonishing effects. The magic potion can even restore one's internal energy, while the life potion's healing properties are nothing short of miraculous." Wu Bo said, holding a document.

  "Yes, these two things, we must try to get them at all costs, even if it means spending more money. This should be very effective for Alice's situation." Irina nodded in agreement.

  She then continued processing a pile of documents on her entire desk, all of which were important files from the merchant group, and Irina had to make a decision as soon as possible.

  "Big sister, now that the old master is in seclusion, the tulip family is starting to stir again." Wu Bo looked at Elena's tired face with some sympathy.

  "Is that so, the merchant guild's profit distribution meeting is about to begin, I suppose they won't make any rash moves for now. Alice just hopes she doesn't stir up too much trouble, otherwise it would be very disadvantageous for us." Elena furrowed her brow upon hearing this.

  "Oh, that guard Lin Wu who's been protecting Alice recently has saved her from a lot of trouble. I think he deserves some reward, and this young man, I think he has great potential, should be nurtured carefully." Duke Wu said, recalling the information sent by the secret troops arranged around Alice earlier.

  "It's Xiao Wu, after all. Since there's merit, we naturally want to reward him, so this matter will be left to Uncle Wu." Elena nodded, having a very deep impression of Lin Wu, especially the sweet pastry that made her feel refreshed just thinking about it.

  "Yes, young lady, you should get some rest too." Wu Bo said as he exited Elinor's room.

  ……

  "Hmm..." After a night of cultivation, Lin Wu only felt his body filled with power, and the previous two battles had completely solidified his strength as an intermediate swordsman at the initial stage.

  Walking out of the hut, Lin Wu began to practice his skills in the courtyard. That battle with the black-clothed man, if Lin Wu hadn't practiced those basic skills to perfection, he might have already died.

  Come on!

  Successive thrusts!

  Triple Slash!

  ……

  One skill after another was unfolding from Lin Wu's hands, and as the skills increased, Lin Wu was also considering combining them to form a combo, but this not only required very high combat experience, but also extremely strong strength.

  Just as Lin Wu was practicing his skills, a strong gust of wind suddenly came, "Come on!!" Feeling the powerful gust of wind that was almost equal to his own strength, Lin Wu let out a loud shout.

  "Bring it on!"

  With a flick of his wrist, Lin Wu sent the incoming person flying up a short distance. As the person fell back down, Lin Wu was already prepared with a cross slash. However, the incoming person's combat experience was also rich, and upon seeing Lin Wu's cross slash, they seemed to have anticipated it. In mid-air, they twisted their body and dodged Lin Wu's attack.

  "Right on cue." Seeing this, a hint of a smile appeared on Lin Wu's face. As the newcomer dodged the Ten Character Slash, Lin Wu's Three Segment Slash followed closely behind. "Ding ding ding!!" Three consecutive strikes, Lin Wu's attack caught the newcomer off guard.

  However, the newcomer's strength was also formidable and he barely managed to hard-block Lin Wu's Triple Slash in mid-air.

  "Not bad, but you also got me!!" The newcomer said, with a fiery aura bursting out, shocking Lin Wu away.

  Lin Wu saw the fiery aura of the newcomer and shouted loudly: "Not fair!" His body also followed that powerful force and leaped violently into the air.

  "Silver Light Falling Blade!!"

  Lin Wu's long sword transformed into a flowing light that shot straight down towards the ground, "Boom!" A small shockwave burst forth from Lin Wu's long sword, and the approaching person was slightly stunned, clearly Lin Wu's move had been somewhat unexpected.

  Just at this moment, Lin Wu rushed towards the green light with his whole body.

  "Consecutive thrusts!!"

  Bang!

  Seeing Lin Wu's consecutive thrusts, the newcomer swung out a fist. The fiery aura mixed with great power forcibly sent Lin Wu flying back.

  "Xiao Wu, not bad, your strength has improved quickly. I'm not even a match for you with my intermediate swordsman skills." said Wu Bo with a smile.
