My Super Beautiful Lady Boss

Chapter 1659 - 1745: Hundred-step Piercing

The reason for thinking this way is an insult to one’s intelligence, because the person who died was the backbone of the Earth Damp 24. He was the most knowledgeable, essentially orchestrating the entire Earth Damp 24, and Su Xuan, that damned guy, could have killed anyone but ended up beheading this person, with no chance of survival whatsoever.Actually, Su Xuan’s success this time was more due to luck. At that moment, he didn’t think much; for him, he just needed to kill one person and retreat quickly. Who would have known that this one strike would take down a big boss? It can only be said that luck was on his side.

Di Lingtian’s face twitched slightly. It was too fast. He hadn’t expected that guy, Su Xuan, to be so formidable. Lord Pheasant was also trembling with anger. He always thought Su Xuan was merely a strategist, which is why he overlooked this point earlier.

It wasn’t until Su Xuan launched his attack in an instant that Lord Pheasant’s heart skipped a beat. A ghostly Sword Qi whooshed out, taking out the head of his most capable assistant. Indeed, he had even more admiration for Su Xuan’s composure.

In such a sudden assault, killing one person and retreating so cleanly and efficiently showcases both mental strength and clear thinking. Many in such a situation would certainly contemplate killing one more.

In fact, if Su Xuan had aimed to kill one more, he wouldn’t have been able to leave. The greatest advantage of the Earth Damp 24 Array is that unless you reduce the opponent to only one, the array is still intact. If not, it only indicates one thing: the Earth Damp 24 hasn’t been broken. If Su Xuan delayed even a moment, he would have been surrounded again, and getting trapped in this space is perilous.

But Su Xuan’s swift and clean actions compelled Lord Pheasant to reevaluate Su Xuan, acknowledging his remarkable intelligence. In that kind of situation, few could resist such temptation.

"Baka!"

Watching Su Xuan escape, Lord Pheasant was so infuriated that he almost spat blood. This time, he lost a Middle-level Ninja, and several Lower-level Ninjas were severely injured by these twelve foreigners. His anger was immense, feeling that his intelligence was insulted.

Dragon Gate Inn!

When Su Xuan returned to Dragon Gate Inn, it was already evening. He was still somewhat frustrated. Initially, he wanted to use Joseph and his madmen to create a big uproar. Unexpectedly, Joseph was more arrogant than even Pheasant, obediently walking right into the others’ formation.

The next day, as today arrived, the power of the storm was already palpable. Due to the yellow sands swirling everywhere, the sky was no longer blue and clear. The storm was steadily approaching, and once it entered the vicinity of Dragon Gate Inn, the resulting force would be enormous.

At dawn, Quicksand and Lord Pheasant had already begun preparations to assault Dragon Gate Inn. All small gates and the main gate were guarded. Su Xuan, the assassin, stood atop the wall, looking at Lord Pheasant, sneering coldly.

"Bring the bow!"

A man promptly handed Su Xuan a large bow. Su Xuan looked at Lord Pheasant’s group and sneered.

"Little Pheasant, since you are so eager to attack the city, then I, your lord, shall play along with you today!"

With that, Su Xuan shot an arrow.

"Swoosh!"

The long arrow pierced through a man’s throat in an instant. As his throat was penetrated, the man collapsed on the ground, his body convulsing violently.

"Careful!"

Lord Pheasant was taken aback, and just as he spoke, a second Feathered Arrow arrived, piercing another warrior’s throat and pinning him directly to the desert floor.

"Damn it!"

Pheasant was filled with immense fury. He had never thought that Su Xuan’s archery could be so deadly, achieving the legendary Hundred-step Piercing.

"Shield Formation!"

Di Lingtian was so scared he almost wet his pants. This is a trap! That guy can wield such strong Swordsmanship, piercing right through throats with an arrow like that.

When the Shield Formation was established, only then did Su Xuan cease shooting arrows.

"Mr. Su, can we negotiate?"

Lord Pheasant shouted loudly, his voice infused with Dark Strength.

"Speak if you have something to say; let it out if you have to fart!"

Su Xuan proclaimed boldly, and everyone on the wall felt their blood boil with bravery, reminiscent of ancient heroic men defending the borders, a spirited gallantry. No one expected Su Xuan’s archery to be so powerful.

"Mr. Su, we have come this time for the mutual prosperity of humanity, with no ill intentions towards you. See, this sandstorm is about to engulf this desert. I promise, if you open the gate, I will abide by my word and not harm anyone. We only seek refuge from this sandstorm. Why lead to a mutual destruction when we all have families?"

Lord Pheasant actually started using this tactic. In fact, Su Xuan previously ignored it because he feared Lord Pheasant might use this ploy at a critical moment. Those spineless ones would certainly open the gate, and chaos would erupt internally. Even if Su Xuan had more capabilities, he wouldn’t stabilize the situation.

Even now, as Lord Pheasant spoke, there were those below who were tempted. Some even softly said,

"Perhaps we should open the gate; they’re probably just afraid of the sandstorm!"

"Listen up, if anyone dares open the gate now, I’ll immediately take my woman and leave. You can die however you want,"

Su Xuan turned around, cursing angrily. Right after Su Xuan’s curse, with a swish, a man instantly slashed the throat of the one who had just spoken!

"Anyone else who dares speak such words is crossing Fang Feihu!"

Among them, there were some who were cowards, but many genuinely understood the situation. They knew that what their opponents truly feared was Su Xuan standing on the wall. Without him, the rest couldn’t hold Dragon Gate Inn, but someone had dared to disturb army morale, which was unacceptable. If such an incident occurred, it would be dangerous.

Some of them clearly knew that Su Xuan had the skills to leave or protect himself. Who could do anything to him? The reason he stood on that wall was simply to protect everyone’s lives.

Those guarding the gates said nothing more. Looking at the one who had been stabbed to death, they understood that retreat was not an option. Otherwise, it would lead to a very tragic death for themselves.
