He only hoped that he could delay the assassin for a split second! Just a blink of an eye would be enough! DongFang JingTian did not have high expectations. As long as he could delay the assassin, he would be able to escape!
At the same time, the heavily injured DongFang JingTian no longer cared about his dignity as the head of an aristocratic family and an expert of the pugilistic world as he shouted, "Men! There's an assassin! "
After all, he only had one life. How could his dignity be more important than his own life?
In this short exchange, DongFang JingTian already knew that the martial arts of this assassin was too high. Even if they were to fight in a fair fight, DongFang JingTian knew that he wouldn't be a match for the assassin! Furthermore, the speed of this black-robed man was too terrifying!
DongFang JingTian had never seen anyone with such speed in his entire life. In fact, he had never dreamed that such speed would appear on a human. But right now, he was witnessing it with his own eyes.
The saddest thing was that this person with such speed and martial arts was actually here to kill him!
Between his dignity and his life, DongFang JingTian wisely chose his life. To a person who was over 50 years old, living on was too important.
DongFang JingTian's judgement was extremely accurate!
Ling Tian's sword light chased after him like a shadow and the bodyguard who was treated as a sandbag by DongFang JingTian had a look of fear on his face as he jumped into Ling Tian's sword light with his arms and legs flailing about in fear.
Puff puff puff … a series of soft sounds could be heard and the body of the guard had already turned into a bloody mist. With a flash of his sword, Ling Tian charged through the bloody mist as though he was a demon who had just emerged from hell! He continued to chase after DongFang JingTian like a shadow. This obstruction was completely useless!
Behind DongFang JingTian, the other guard fell to the ground with a look of disbelief on his face. On his throat, there was a faint trace of blood. It was an extremely inconspicuous wound, but it was the cause of his death.
His right hand was placed on the hilt of his sword as though he was about to unsheathe it. However, even when he fell to the ground, his sword was only half a foot out of its sheath.
Even until his death, he still couldn't figure out when the man in black suddenly slit his throat when he was charging at him with his back facing him. How did he die with such a gentle slash?!
At the same time, DongFang JingTian's scream broke through the night sky. The entire DongFang Family was thrown into chaos.
Ling Tian's lips curled into a disdainful smile as he chased after DongFang JingTian like a shadow! How could such a character be the head of a family? What a joke!
DongFang JingTian's heart!
At this moment, in order to escape the pursuit of the black-clothed man, he even used the blood he spat out to activate the secret technique that stimulated his life potential. He didn't want to kill the enemy, but only wanted to escape. He only wanted to double the speed of escaping!
After all, the most important thing was to survive!
Even so, even though his speed was almost twice his usual speed, he was still unable to escape from the pursuit of the black-robed man! An extremely cold aura of death could be felt from the skin on his back. That was undoubtedly where the assassin's sword was pointing! It also forced him to constantly change his direction. In the blink of an eye, DongFang JingTian could feel his breathing quickening and his heartbeat quickening. It was as though his heart was about to jump out of his throat at any moment...
Although his speed was already as fast as lightning, far exceeding his usual speed, he could clearly feel that his feet were like stepping on cotton, without the slightest resistance …
The assassin's warm breath was already on his neck and DongFang JingTian's heart was filled with despair! Following which, DongFang JingTian's eyeballs suddenly popped out and a shiny sword tip appeared in front of DongFang JingTian's chest. It was clean and sparkling, without a single speck of blood on it. A heart-piercing strike!
A sure-kill strike!
A sure-kill strike!
Following which, the shiny sword tip retracted back into DongFang JingTian's chest. After this sword strike, Ling Tian's body suddenly disappeared, disappearing into the night wind, melting into the night sky ….
That strike had already severed DongFang JingTian's life. Even though DongFang JingTian's heart was different from normal people, it was useless. The moment the sword tip entered DongFang JingTian's body, the qi that Ling Tian had gathered on the sword exploded violently in DongFang JingTian's body. Not only his heart, DongFang JingTian's internal organs were also shattered into pieces!
No one would be able to survive such injuries! No one would be able to do so!
The moment the sword tip retracted back into DongFang JingTian's chest, DongFang JingTian had already stopped breathing. He no longer had any signs of life and had turned into a corpse! It was a genuine corpse! However, the strange thing was that DongFang JingTian's legs were still running with all his might due to inertia...
In fact, DongFang JingTian's body was still able to make graceful dodging movements under the influence of inertia...
Blood continued to spurt out from the three wounds on DongFang JingTian's body. Under the influence of DongFang JingTian's powerful inner qi, the blood spurting out was vigorous and resplendent...
Shua shua shua...
Dozens of black shadows hurriedly landed in the small courtyard. Countless pairs of horrified eyes stared at the Family Head whose chest had already turned into two transparent holes. Yet, he was still running … Everyone's scalp suddenly exploded, and all the hairs on their bodies stood on end …
A moving corpse?!
They could only watch on, but they couldn't do anything! This was because the murderer of the Patriarch had already disappeared without a trace. There were only three corpses left. One was lying on the ground, the other had turned into a pile of flesh and blood, and the last one … was still running away …
DongFang JingTian's corpse finally collapsed to the ground due to inertia! A few withered leaves that had just landed on the ground were blown away by the wind as DongFang JingTian's corpse fell to the ground.
Everyone was dumbfounded!
These people naturally knew what kind of strength their Family Head possessed. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he was the number one expert in the Dongfang Family!
However, that mysterious assassin obviously did not give their Family Head any chance to retaliate. In fact, before they arrived, their Family Head should have been running for his life!
The time taken should not have been too long because their Family Head had just left to discuss some matters with them before such a thing happened. When they heard their Family Head's cry for help, they had already rushed over. The entire process should not have taken more than three to four breaths of time! However, in such a short period of time, a top-notch expert of the pugilistic world had lost his life! He didn't even have the time to cry for help a second time!
What kind of strength did the assassin need to achieve such a feat?!
From the position of the two guards, it could be seen that the assassin had attacked the moment the three of them entered the courtyard. From then on, the Family Head had started to run for his life. From the looks of the blood splattered everywhere, the Family Head should have used a secret technique of the Dongfang Family to increase his cultivation. Otherwise, the blood would not have splattered so far away. Such a situation would only occur when the pressure in one's body had reached a certain limit!
But even with such speed, he was still killed in an instant!
This mysterious assassin, after doing such a shocking thing, actually didn't let anyone see even the shadow of his back! Such martial arts, such speed!
It was too terrifying and too shocking!
Everyone thought of the same person at the same time. Could it be that the assassin was the Martial Order Medallion owner, Justice? In the current world, only the Martial Order Medallion owner, Justice, had such capabilities!
But why?!
Everyone looked at the three corpses in a daze. They didn't know what to feel in their hearts. Panic, sorrow, anger, and helplessness. But it was undeniable that the majority of their emotions were fear and joy.
After experiencing the incomparably powerful martial arts of this mysterious assassin, a thought appeared in everyone's mind. If I had not separated from the Family Head and followed him here, or if I had arrived a step earlier, not only would I not have been able to save the Family Head, I would have lost my life as well …
Everyone felt a chill run down their spines. Miraculously, their thoughts were the same …
Ling Tian was like a gust of wind, sweeping across half the city in an instant. He landed in front of the window of a room on the second floor of an inn. With a finger on the windowsill, his body was suspended in mid-air. His other hand knocked on the window politely as he asked in a gentle voice, "Is there anyone home? An uninvited guest is here to steal a beauty. "
After returning from killing someone and saying such frivolous words, Ling Tian's tone was as though he was an elegant scholar who had just returned from a moonlit stroll and was about to have a chat with his good friend, carefree and relaxed.
With a creak, the window opened and Xiao YanXue's beautiful face appeared in front of Ling Tian. The lass pouted her lips and glared hatefully at Ling Tian without saying a word. Ling Tian looked at her with a grin. The two of them stared at each other with one outside the window and the other inside the room, not giving in.
After a long time, Xiao YanXue finally gave in and left the window. She pretended to be indifferent and said 'coldly', "Uninvited guest, come in."
Ling Tian chuckled and entered through the window. He cupped his fists and bowed, "Many thanks, Miss." Then, he let out a long sigh. "I didn't expect that flower thieves would be treated so well. I'm really overjoyed."
Xiao YanXue couldn't hold back her laughter any longer. She rolled her eyes and pursed her lips as she looked at him and said, "This stinky mouth of yours is really … When you're infuriating someone, you can anger them to death with a single sentence. But when you're making them laugh, you can make them laugh with a single sentence. I really admire you."
"This is my unique skill. I don't usually tell people about it." Ling Tian laughed, picked up the teacup on the table, and drank it in one gulp.
"You, you, you …" Xiao YanXue's face turned red. She was the one who used the teacup just now. She was still holding it with both hands just now. The scent of her red lips still lingered on it … (To be continued, if you want to know what happened next, please go to www.qidian.com to read more chapters.
