Currently, the Four Seasons Tower's strategy was working. The assassins had suffered heavy losses, and the number of casualties was still increasing. Although such a situation would not affect the final outcome of the battle, because the final outcome would be the assassins' victory, the Concourse of the Underworld would be happy to see such a situation. If too many of the assassins who had come for the battle perished, The Merciless Tower and the Hall of Crimson Blade would no longer be credible. The dream of being the leader of the assassins' world would only be a dream.
Even if the Four Seasons Tower's experts were wiped out in the end, The Hall of Crimson Blade and The Merciless Tower would have to pay a considerable price. This was not even taking into account the Four Seasons Tower's subsequent revenge.
Therefore, it was reasonable for the Concourse of the Underworld to retreat at the last minute. It was within their expectations, within reason!
Thinking of this, Hen Bieli's hatred lessened. He quickly came to a conclusion – they had to eliminate the Four Seasons Tower's experts as soon as possible. In other words, they had to use their hidden trump card. If they were to delay any longer, they would lose everything tonight!
Hen Bieli howled. With a flick of his wrist, a blood-red firework rose abruptly.
However, as the blood-red firework was unleashed, Hen Bieli and Hong Zhan's hearts were bleeding.
This force was the last force they had hidden in The Merciless Tower and the Hall of Crimson Blade. It also included some high-level assassins they had recruited recently.
It was truly their last trump card.
Initially, Hen Bieli and Hong Zhan had predicted that they would far surpass the Four Seasons Tower in terms of manpower and overall capability. With the help of a veteran like the Concourse of the Underworld, this trump card was only a contingency plan – the so-called killer's last resort. However, not only did the Four Seasons Tower's combat power exceed their expectations, their strategy was even more ingenious and targeted, causing the assassins' losses to far exceed their expectations.
Furthermore, the Concourse of the Underworld had withdrawn at the last minute. The situation was dire. If they were to delay any longer, the assassins who had come for the battle might collapse first. Therefore, the only thing they could do now was to fill in the gaps and end the battle as soon as possible.
However, once they thought of the losses they had incurred in this battle, the two leaders felt an unbearable pain in their hearts.
Following the command, countless glints of saber light and sword shadows of various colors suddenly engulfed the night sky.
Countless gray-clothed assassins appeared one after another. However, these figures that suddenly appeared were extremely strange and illusory. Following a series of explosions, smoke and dust filled the sky, and all of them disappeared into the night fog that suddenly rose.
However, the killing intent that permeated the air instantly became many times stronger.
From then on, the Four Seasons Tower's experts began to suffer casualties.
Although the number of people summoned by the two major assassin organizations this time was not many, the quality was shockingly high.
In terms of pure martial strength, almost every one of them had the tyrannical strength to establish their own sects in the outside world!
Once these people intervened, the Four Seasons Tower's final strength that they relied on as a great wall was immediately suppressed.
Moments later, casualties began to appear!
Hen Bieli did not hold back either. Clad in green and wielding his sword, his body spun like the wind, sometimes to the east and sometimes to the west. His eyes glinted brilliantly as he launched an all-out attack on the Four Seasons Tower's remaining forces.
Hong Zhan naturally did not want to be outdone. The two of them, one on the left and one on the right, one on the south and one on the north, complemented each other and began a massacre!
Yun Yang, who was observing from the shadows, could not help frowning when he saw the scene.
Based on the current situation, the Four Seasons Tower's defeat was set in stone. Snow, Frost, and Sword did not even have the chance to break out of the siege. If the stalemate continued, both sides' abilities would be completely unbalanced, and the three of them would definitely lose their lives in this battle.
In fact, the three of them were already in dire straits. Venerable Lord Snow's white robe was already stained with blood, while Venerable Lord Sword had a piece of his scalp shaved off. Only Venerable Lord Frost was still alive.
Yun Yang lifted his head and looked at the wraith fog not far away before he retracted his gaze.
Then, a few more cries rang out. Another five Four Seasons Tower's experts had died a violent death. The assassins had only paid the price in this round of attacks – only three of them were severely injured!
A moment later, another series of cries rang out. Hen Bieli and Hong Zhan had attacked aggressively, one from the south and one from the north, killing the other four experts from the Four Seasons Tower, other than the three Venerable Lords.
Now, the Four Seasons Tower was left with only Snow, Frost, and Sword.
At this point, more than a hundred assassins had revealed themselves. Countless cold gazes were focused on the three men who were on the verge of collapsing in the field.
The battle had finally come to an end!
However, in this battle, there were already more than one thousand five hundred famous assassins who fell here forever.
It was undoubtedly a huge number!
However, this huge number of casualties was only exchanged for the lives of less than two hundred men from the Four Seasons Tower!
On the side of the assassins, although they had won this battle, they had actually lost. The gains did not make up for the losses!
With a wave of his hand, Hen Bieli halted his attacks. His hawk-like eyes stared at Venerable Lord Snow and said, "Venerable Lord Snow, now that this battle has come to an end, this reputed one still has something that I don't understand. If I don't get to the bottom of this, I'll feel indignant. I wonder if Venerable Lord Snow can answer this reputed one at this last juncture?"
Venerable Lord Snow coughed and chuckled bitterly. "A question that I don't understand? Indignant? That's great! Initially, I hated myself for not being able to kill you, and I couldn't help but die with a grudge. However, if I were to bury your puzzlement and let you be paranoid for the rest of your life, it would be a wonderful thing to do. "
Venerable Lord Sword and Venerable Lord Frost guffawed at the same time, not at all concerned about the current situation.
Hen Bieli's gaze grew colder and colder, sharper and sharper. He said faintly, "It looks like the three Venerable Lords don't wish to answer?"
Venerable Lord Sword spat and lifted his neck, replying in disdain, "Answer you? Who do you think you are? "
Hen Bieli nodded slowly, his murderous intent blazing as he uttered word by word, "Good, very good!"
With a wave of his hand, he commanded, "Kill!"
All the assassins moved at the same time. Boundless murderous intent engulfed the three Venerable Lords.
It was at this moment that a piercing howl was heard. A deep voice spoke, "Over here!"
At the same time, a blinding light erupted in the yard, as if a sun had fallen into the yard.
Assassins were more accustomed to the dark atmosphere, for it was the only way they could feel more secure. Now that they were exposed to such a strong light, they were blinded. Their vigilance was heightened as they shut their eyes instinctively, brandishing their weapons so that the wind and rain could not penetrate them. Their priority was to protect themselves.
Snow, Frost, and Sword, Venerable Lord Frost, and Venerable Lord Sword were quick to react to the sudden change, charging out.
Amidst the darkness, a vague silhouette appeared high in the sky. Its arms were raised, and the sound of wind breaking was incessant.
Then, it was as if countless experts had attacked at the same time.
Countless hidden weapons formed an impenetrable wall behind Snow, Frost, and Sword like a storm.
"Don't let the Four Seasons Tower's remnant escape!"
Hen Bieli was a veteran, so he was the quickest to react. He knew that if the three Venerable Lords were to escape unscathed, there would only be endless trouble. With a loud roar, he was about to give chase. Unexpectedly, an eerie laugh rang in the air, "Who's the remnant?"
Before the voice could echo in the air, an exceedingly domineering force struck.
Hen Bieli's eyes were still tearing up. He was only exerting himself to give chase. Amidst the sudden attack, he instinctively swung his sword in the direction of the sound of the wind.
A crisp sound rang out. He didn't know what his sword had hit, but he saw thick smoke rising into the air.
After the bright light, thick smoke engulfed the area. It was so dark that one could not even see their own fingers.
When the smoke dissipated and the assassins looked over, all they could see was the galaxy, the moon in the sky, and the blood and broken limbs on the ground. The three Venerable Lords of the Four Seasons Tower were nowhere to be seen!
They didn't even know who had saved them!
…
I'm so angry today! A close friend of mine came to our house. Before she came, I'd told her, "Don't embarrass me later, don't speak so harshly."
I'll remember it.
My close friend is here. She's elegant and pretty. I've only taken a few more glances, been a little more attentive, and complimented her a little. Everything was done according to my wife's instructions … My wife was all smiles then, but after my close friend left, I was beaten up … I even have to sleep on the sofa tonight …
I'm so angry!
