Who is it?!

In the instant when he heard the sound.

The Faceless Man’s hair stood on end, he did not hesitate at all, and turned around to throw a punch in the direction of the sound.

His reaction was fast.

But Chen Sheng was even faster.

Faceless Man had just turned around, and saw a fist rapidly expanding in front of his eyes.

Bang!

Chen Sheng’s arm was like a cannonball coming out of a barrel, it landed solidly on the mask.

Accompanied by a crackling sound.

Mask fragments mixed with fresh blood were shot around.

In an instant,

Pain swept through his mind, and the Faceless man’s body uncontrollably retreated.

But Chen Sheng would not easily let him go.

You either do not make a move, The moment you make a move,

First kill it, then talk!

Chen Sheng stepped forward with his left foot and his right foot swung heavily. His left hand clenched into a fist, with the palm up, striking upward with a fierce force.

Bang!

Another punch hit the Faceless Man’s lower jaw.

The intense pain caused the Faceless Man, who hadn’t had time to recover, to go blank in an instant. His legs kept retreating back.

Seeing this,

Chen Sheng didn’t hesitate any longer, took three steps as two, and quickly closed in.

His arm turned into a black thread, aiming straight for the Faceless Man’s chest.

Bang!

With the final sound,

Faceless Man’s eyes widened instantly, his pupils dilating.

At his heart’s position, it had already been caved in by Chen Sheng’s Bashing Fist.

With a thud,

His body fell to the ground.

“Hoo—

Chen Sheng took a long breath, wiping the sweat off his forehead.

“Where did the bad guy come from, scared me to death.”

Thanks to the power of his Agility Attribute, Chen Sheng had already heard the slight noise of the Faceless Man landing when he entered the courtyard.

The Faceless Man at that time didn’t even notice that when he was stealing the express delivery, there was a pair of eyes staring at him from within the darkness.

Chen Sheng secretly followed him all the way to the back of Shen Ziming’s

wooden house.

He took advantage of his unguarded moment to take a fierce action.

As for the reason he didn’t keep a living witness to interrogate,

It’s because Chen Sheng didn’t dare.

He was afraid that if he gave the opponent a chance, and some kind of trouble was caused and discovered by others, it would be extremely disadvantageous for him.

Thinking of this,

Chen Sheng squatted down, stuffed the papers and letter on the ground into the document bag, and put it in his pocket. Then, he turned around and returned to his house.

Two minutes later,

Chen Sheng reappeared, wearing gloves and a mask, and having changed his clothes.

First, he searched around Shen Ziming’s wooden house.

As expected, he found the shovel and cleaning tools he used to dig the grave.

From his pocket, Chen Sheng took out a plastic bag and put the mask fragments from the ground in it, and covered the blood with mud.

Afterward,

Chen Sheng squatted down next to the Faceless Man’s corpse.

It was only then that he noticed the Faceless Man’s face was completely burned, making it impossible to see his original appearance.

Without much thought,

He searched the corpse and found nothing useful, then carried it in one hand and headed for the wasteland.

All the way,

Chen Sheng looked around nervously, afraid that someone would discover his tracks.

“I apologize, I apologize.”

“I found you all a companion, please don’t mind.”

Having arrived at the wasteland without danger, Chen Sheng held his hands together and mumbled to the lonely tombs around him. Having said that, he began to bury the corpse immediately.

An hour later,

Chen Sheng, who had cleaned up all traces, returned home, and quickly threw the clothes he was wearing into the washing machine.

After all of that, he went back to the kitchen as if nothing had happened and started cooking.

“Sigh

While frying the vegetables, Chen Sheng sighed repeatedly.

He couldn’t understand his own mentality right now.

But compared to the first time he killed someone, he was extremely calm this time.

Chen Sheng’s current demeanor was as normal and casual as if he had just done a small, trivial thing.

Instead of worrying about how he had killed someone, his mind was focused on whether he had left any traces behind and if anyone would come after him.

“It seems my house isn’t very safe.”

“Should I go out and hide for a while?”

However, if he left, the mysterious organization would inevitably connect the Faceless Man’s death to him.

But if he didn’t leave, would they not come looking for him?

After thinking for a while,

Chen Sheng couldn’t come up with a good solution, so he put the matter aside for now.

Half an hour later,

Chen Sheng, having finished his dinner, didn’t start cleaning up right away.

Instead, he took out the document bag and opened it.

First, he looked at the paper,

[Eagle’s Breath]

What was recorded on it was a very complicated breathing technique.

It required at least a martial artist with Transforming Power and a Body Forging Skill, only then could they practice it together.

As it wasn’t something he could start cultivating immediately, Chen Sheng put it aside.

He unfolded the letter and began to read.

[Brother Chen, how have you been lately?]

[If you successfully receive this letter, it means that I am trapped and likely to die.]

[Don’t try to save me; I’ve long expected such a day.]

[What I left in the express delivery is called Breathing Technique.]

[The Breathing Technique’s effect is extremely powerful, capable of changing a person’s life essence, and has been used by Qi-sensors to fight Heavenly People throughout history.]

[Unfortunately, I originally planned to find the matching Body Forging Skill and give it to you to repay your life-saving grace.]

[Now, I can only leave an address for you to look for it yourself.]

The handwriting in the letter became sloppy here, and a bloodstain covered it, making it impossible to read the content.

Obviously,

Shen Ziming was in a very bad situation when he wrote this letter. Chen Sheng looked past the bloodstain and continued reading.

[Never confront them head-on, remember, remember.]

[You’re an interesting person, and I’d like to be friends with you if possible.]

[But now, I’m afraid there’s no chance.]

[Such a pity, such a pity.]

[Brother Chen]

[Wishing you prosperity in the martial arts]

[PS: There’s a nameless tombstone in the southeast corner of the graveyard. I carved a letter on it. Digging up the grave will bring you a pleasant surprise.] An address was left at the end of the letter.

It should be related to the location of the Body Forging Skill mentioned in the letter.

After reading the letter,

Chen Sheng sat in silence on the sofa for a long time.

“How absurd.”

He suddenly said a word.

But his tone was extremely low.

Honestly,

He hadn’t known Shen Ziming for very long.

They might not even be considered friends.

He couldn’t understand why the other party, who was about to die, still thought about repaying his life-saving grace.

What he understood even less was that,

Why when he heard the news of the other party’s death, His mood grew extremely heavy.

In the depths of his heart, a flame burned continuously,

But he didn’t know where to direct it.

After a while,

Chen Sheng closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

He put the letter behind him and stuffed it into the cabinet in his room.

Most of the items in the cabinet were important things.

Now, he had one more letter from someone who might or might not be considered a friend.

Leaving his room, Chen Sheng went straight to the balcony.

Feeling the cool evening breeze, his agitated mood finally relaxed a bit.

At that moment,

He suddenly remembered the nameless tombstone Shen Ziming mentioned in the letter.

“I wonder what it is.”

Chen Sheng looked around.

After making sure that no one was watching, he couldn’t help but let his curiosity get the better of him.

He put on gloves and picked up an iron shovel from Shen Ziming’s room.

Chen Sheng stealthily made his way to the graveyard..
