All Dead!
In the blink of an eye, the young man pulled out a three-pronged dagger from his sleeve. With a flick of his wrist, he thrust it toward his sixth sect uncle's heart.
Phantom had instructed Xia Fei to protect his sixth sect brother's life, so Xia Fei did not hesitate to make his move.
Celestial Moon rolled and whizzed forward.
In that split second, Xia Fei could not care less. Celestial Moon left behind a silver afterimage as it slashed toward that young man's head.
* Pfft!
* Whoosh! *
Almost at the same time, the three-pronged dagger pierced through his sixth sect uncle's combat suit and into his heart, while Xia Fei's Celestial Moon happened to land on the young man's head. The two hugged each other tightly as they died at the same time.
Xia Fei furrowed his brows. It was not that he did not want to save Phantom, but the two of them were too close, and he was caught off guard.
Xia Fei had already used all his strength, yet he was still unable to kill the young man before he could make his move.
Fresh blood and white brain matter flowed all over the ground, and that young woman let out a shrill wail that was very piercing to the ears.
Xia Fei was already a little annoyed at not being able to save Phantom's sixth sect brother, and this annoying rooster cry only made him more annoyed. With a flick of his wrist, Celestial Moon charged toward that naked woman. Since two of them had already died, he might as well make it a clean one.
"Wait!" Phantom suddenly said.
Xia Fei hurriedly used his psychokinesis and swung Celestial Moon to the left.
* Shing! *
The silver circular dagger brushed past the tip of that woman's nose and sank into the stone wall. She was so frightened that she forgot to cry, her face ashen.
"Ask her what's going on!" Phantom was exasperated.
They had not seen each other for many years, and this meeting had turned into an eternal farewell. Anyone else would not feel good about it, but he did not blame Xia Fei for this. At such a close distance, even a god would find it difficult to save his sixth sect brother's life.
Xia Fei glanced at that seductive fox from the corner of his eye. "What's there to ask? Just kill her."
Phantom shook his head and said in a deep voice, "I want to ask about my sect. It's not too late to kill her after I'm done."
Xia Fei's mind spun. This was the perfect opportunity for him to learn more about the Assassin Sect. He had always been very interested in Phantoms sect, so this was great.
That young man was still kneeling on the ground, his head split open in the middle. Xia Fei walked over and kicked the body, sending it flying several dozen meters away.
Bang!
Her head happened to hit the stone wall, and white brain matter splattered down like rain. The young woman shuddered violently, helplessly looking at Xia Fei with a pitiful look on her face.
With Phantoms sixth sect brother as an example, there was no way she would be able to move Xia Feis heart in the slightest, no matter how delicate she was.
Pa! Pa!
Without another word, he first landed two heavy slaps on the woman's face. Though Xia Fei was a speed ability user, he was also very strong. He did not think that he had used too much force, but when the slaps landed on the delicate woman's face, it felt like two heavy hammers.
Not only did her fair face swell up, but she also spat out a few broken teeth and blood. The vixen from earlier had turned into a pig's head in the blink of an eye. Forget seducing a man, she might not even be able to successfully seduce a livestock.
"Ask her what her status in the Assassin Sect is and why she has such a close relationship with sixth sect brother," Phantom said to Xia Fei.
Xia Fei repeated what he said to her, and the woman raised her willowy eyebrows. Evidently, she did not expect to meet Xia Fei on this secretive planet, nor did she expect him to recognize her as a disciple of the Assassin Sect with a single glance.
It must be mentioned that the Assassins Sect had always been living in secret within the Alliance, never revealing themselves. Very few people knew of their existence, yet Xia Fei actually knew so much about the Assassins Sect at such a young age. She was secretly shocked.
She was no match for Xia Fei in terms of martial prowess, and even her background had been thoroughly investigated. The woman realized that there was nothing she could hide, so she answered all of Xia Fei's questions truthfully.
After a while of questioning, Xia Fei finally got to the bottom of everything.
It turned out that this sixth sect brother of Phantom was already over a hundred years old. Due to his slow-witted personality, women did not like him, and there were not many women in the Assassin Sect to begin with, so he had always been single.
According to the tradition of the Assassin Sect, every few years, there would be external affairs that would gather some orphaned children from all over the universe and bring them back to the sect to be groomed. Those who had talent in martial arts could learn martial arts, while those who had no talent could help out the sect by doing odd jobs.
This woman happened to be assigned to Phantom's sixth sect brother. When she was young, she did not notice anything strange about her, but as she grew older, the charm in her bones began to show.
Phantom's sixth sect brother had never touched a woman in his entire life, and after being seduced by this young disciple of his, the two actually fell in love. Though many in the sect did not like it, considering that the sixth sect brother had contributed to the sect, they allowed him to marry this vixen.
A few more years passed, and as the vixen grew older, she began to feel that the sixth sect brother was not very amorous and that his physical strength was not to her liking. Thus, she hooked up with the youngest son of her second sect brother, and the two of them began working together.
One of them was suave, while the other was a vixen by nature. The longer they spent time together, the bolder they became, to the point where they no longer tried to avoid the people around them.
There was no such thing as an impenetrable wall in this world, and this matter soon spread throughout the sect. There were people who tried to warn their sixth sect brother about it, but he was a simple and honest man, refusing to believe them no matter what.
The Assassin Sect had been training on this planet for the past few days, and the two of them had been holding it in for a few days, so the flames of lust were burning in their hearts. Thus, they snuck out and ran to this cave in the wilderness to have sex, but they were accidentally discovered by their sixth sect brother, resulting in this farce.
When Phantom heard this, the veins on his forehead throbbed, hating the fact that he could not choke this vixen to death with his own hands.
Shaking his head and sighing, Gui Ying then said, "Ask her if Elder Yue Ying is well."
Xia Fei was slightly surprised. Moonshadow must be the name of Phantom's master. The word 'master' was constantly on his lips, and this was the first time he had heard of Phantom's master's real name.
The woman was also confused by this question. It was rare for Xia Fei to know of the existence of the Assassin Sect, yet he was even able to call out the name of the venerable elder in the sect. Could this person also be from the Assassins? If he was from the Assassins, why had she never seen him before?
Puzzled, the woman described Old Master Moonshadow's recent situation.
Since she and Old Master Moonshadow were not of the same lineage, she had only heard of him occasionally or exchanged greetings when they met along the way.
Knowing that his master was still alive and well, Phantom could not help but tear up, nearly kneeling on the ground and kowtowing to Xia Fei.
Xia Fei pursed his lips. Phantom's respect for his master was not just for show. Looking at his stubbornness, even if his master wanted him to die, he would not hesitate to do so.
Aside from that, he could not get any other useful information out of this woman. Furthermore, in order to live a little longer, this woman had spouted all sorts of nonsense, even talking about how the cook and her sect sister were having an affair. She was extremely noisy.
Xia Fei glanced at Phantom, asking if he wanted to end this little vixen's life. Phantom nodded slightly, and Xia Fei raised his knife and chopped off the woman's head, showing no tenderness for the fairer sex.
This messy farce ended with three corpses. Probably no one would have expected this.
Xia Fei got up and searched the corpses. Phantom furrowed his brows and asked, What are you doing?
Xia Fei smiled. Since they're all dead, I'm seeing if there's anything good on them. They won't be able to use it anyway.
Phantom originally wanted to stop Xia Fei. After all, these people were from the same sect as him, but after some careful thought, he realized that Xia Fei was right. There was no point in leaving these corpses in this cave as burial objects, so he decided to let Xia Fei have it easy.
The three-pronged bone knife in the young man's hand was of decent quality. For it to be able to pierce through the combat suit and pierce the heart so easily, it showed that the blade was sharp enough.
Xia Fei picked up the knife and examined it. He could see that the blade was shining with a silver light, and there was a faint chill coming from it.
The shape of the knife was extremely strange. There was even a blood groove in the middle of the three-pronged blade. It looked blunt but was actually extremely sharp. Furthermore, a large amount of blood would flow out from the blood groove after being stabbed, and the wound was triangular in shape, making it extremely difficult to heal.
This is a specially made Lifeseeker Bone Knife. It's considered a rare killing weapon in my sect. Even the slightest deviation from this knife will result in death from blood loss. Who would have thought that this beast would have such a weapon in his hands. Why is sixth brother's life so bitter? Phantom sighed.
Xia Fei nodded. This knife sure is ruthless. Who would have thought that the Assassins Sect would have such an evil weapon.
Phantom coldly harrumphed. We're assassins to begin with, and we'll do anything to kill the other party. What's the big deal about this? You've yet to see anything more ruthless.
Xia Fei was speechless. The job of an assassin was to take someone's life, but this Lifeseeker Bone Knife was an eye-opener for Xia Fei. It turned out that a small dagger could also be so ruthless. He secretly wondered how the sales would be if he were to mass produce this thing.
Pursing his lips, Xia Fei knew that Phantom had always been very protective of his sect. If he were to sell their sect's killing weapon for money, Phantom would surely go crazy.
His palm continued rummaging through the clothes of the three men. They had come out for training, so they had brought quite a few weapons with them, but there was nothing valuable.
Xia Fei stood up and walked over to Phantom's side. With a swipe of his finger, he took out a few items from his spatial ring for Phantom to see.
"What are these?" Xia Fei asked.
Phantom glanced at them and casually said, "These three plates are each of their identity cards, and they'll have to show them when entering some of the important places in the sect. They're of no use to you. These black pills are for healing and raising Qi to prevent accidental injuries. The rest are weapons, mostly hidden weapons. Even if you add them all up, they're not worth as much as that Lifeseeker Bone Knife in your hand."
Xia Fei nodded. He did not care if they were of any value before, but he was especially happy about those exquisite hidden weapons. There was a cylindrical metal object with thirty-six steel needles hidden inside, which would shoot out with a light press of a spring.
To a Speed Ability User like Xia Fei, who had a speed of nearly four thousand meters per second, these hidden weapons were of no use. He could easily rely on his speed to escape, but these were lethal weapons to normal people.
Xia Fei squatted down and used his hands to drag the three corpses away. Phantom furrowed his eyebrows and asked, "What are you doing? They're all dead. Just let them stay here quietly. "
Xia Fei softly said, "There's an old saying on Earth, 'Rest in peace when buried.' Since this man is your sect brother, I ought to give him a proper burial."
Phantom was startled, so agitated that he could not speak. He believed that Xia Fei was doing this out of extreme respect for his sect, so he immediately thought much more highly of Xia Fei.
What he did not know was that Xia Fei felt that there were still many Assassins out there. Furthermore, these people had left behind traces when they came, so he needed to hide the corpses as soon as possible to prevent others from mistakenly thinking that he was the one who killed the three men. Thus, he wanted to get rid of the corpses and erase the evidence, which was nowhere near as noble as Phantom thought.
