entering the stronghold, he saw a vast hall inside. it was extremely simple. the only thing in this hall was an elder resting with his eyes closed.
when long chen entered, the elder’s eyes popped open. his eyes were extremely turbid, making him look exactly like an ordinary, mortal elder.
“sorry to disturb you,” said long chen lightly as he appraised the surroundings.
“long chen? hehe, interesting. you’re on the kill list, but you actually dared to come here. youngsters these days really are brazen,” praised the elder.
“there’s no way around that, as my character is just like that. but the world is always changing. for example, the position of hunter and prey often changes, don’t you think?” asked long chen.
this person was definitely an assassin. although this person had completely reserved his aura, long chen’s sharp spiritual perception could still sense endless resentment on his body. that was the resentment left behind by the people he had killed. now that it had been absorbed by his aura, it was something that would never wash away.
“oh? this theory of yours truly does exist. but it doesn’t hold water with my bloodkill hall. prey should just hide as best as they can, doing anything they can to dodge the arrow of the hunter. once the hunter finally gives up, the prey will also regain its freedom. but if a prey walks into the hunter’s room, that’s not in accordance with the rules. even if the prey manages to bite one hunter to death, it will simply bring on more hunters, and then it won’t have the slightest chance of surviving,” said the elder.
obviously, he was extremely familiar with who long chen was. he had already escaped from bronze, silver, and gold rank assassins. then he would only have to endure one more wave of violet gold assassins before, in accordance with the bloodkill hall’s regulations, the mission to kill him would be marked as a failure.
once a mission failed, the bloodkill hall would never create a new mission to kill that target. that was why he was warning long chen. if long chen didn’t act according to the bloodkill hall’s rules, then no matter what today’s result was, long chen would forever have to face this world’s most terrifying assassins until he died.
“rules? those are just things the strong force upon the weak. as for the experts, they are both the players and the referees. this kind of game is too senseless, and i don’t like it.” long chen shook his head.
“oh? then what do you want?”
“i like to play according to my own rules.” long chen shrugged.
“your rules?”
“my rules are: if someone doesn’t offend me, i won’t offend them. if a person offends me, i’ll endure for a bit, and then if they continue, i’ll pull them up by the roots!” long chen seemed extremely relaxed as if he was just talking about a game. there wasn’t the slightest graveness to his voice.
but long chen already viewed the bloodkill hall as enemies. they had already come after him several times, and he was done with this senseless game.
as for him saying that he would ‘endure for a bit’, that was really just nonsense. other than enduring a bit toward pretty women, it seemed he never exercised any forbearance.
“pull them up by the roots? hahaha...!”
the elder laughed heartily as if he had heard the world’s funniest joke. tears even squeezed out of his eyes.
long chen didn’t say anything. he simply stood there with his hands clasped behind his back, a smile on his face as he waited.
after getting tired of laughing, the elder finally said, “do you know just how laughable your words are? do you know how enormous the bloodkill hall is? let alone you, even your xuantian dao sect’s patriarch doesn’t have the qualifications to say that he will uproot the entire bloodkill hall. do you want to continue making jokes?”
pfft!
suddenly, a lightning spear pierced through the elder’s chest. a large hole was left behind by it, and endless thunderforce instantly numbed his nerves.
“sorry, i tend to be a bit impatient. rather than listening to your chatter, i’ll borrow your head for a moment.”
long chen was actually quite interested in these assassins. but he wouldn’t let go of a chance to kill them.
when it came to killing arts, it was long chen who knew the most efficient methods. he was someone who had killed his way out of a mountain of corpses.
as soon as that elder had released his aura and begun preparing to use a powerful technique, he had left himself open for a single breath. as a result, long chen hadn’t let that opportunity escape him, and he had killed him with a single blow.
long chen pointed his finger at the elder’s head, and his vast spiritual strength surged out.
“soulsearch.”
long chen used the most barbarous method to break the elder’s spiritual defenses and examine his memories.
“a spiritual seal!” long chen was startled.
bang!
the elder’s head exploded, and long chen hastily circulated his spiritual qi to block the blood from splashing on him.
the instant the elder died, a dozen black-robed experts appeared in the hall. each of them held a black crossbow in their hands, and a flurry of arrows rained down on long chen.
those crossbows were strangely powerful and fast as lightning. at such a close distance, and with long chen being distracted by the elder’s head exploding, it could be said that this attack was truly perfect.
it went without saying that these assassins’ arrows would all be poisoned. being struck by this many arrows would definitely be difficult to bear.
“lightning shield.” endless thunderforce surged out of long chen’s arms, forming a large barrier.
the arrows all exploded on impact. in front of his thunderforce, these arrows were useless.
“even in broad daylight, you like to wear black and hide your faces. that really must be miserable for you. fine, i’ll send you to the other world. i hear that it’s always dark there, and you won’t have to suffer so much during the day.”
boom!
long chen detonated his lightning shield, and this stronghold was blown to pieces. as for the assassins, they had been prepared, but they were still sent flying, vomiting blood.
“brothers, they’ve finally come!”
gu yang was the first to charge forward, his eyes scarlet. his spear smashed toward those assassins.
