Judging from the level of concealment and the way they attacked, they must be shadow killers. Du Feng had encountered the Shadow Clan before, but this wasn't a fair one-on-one duel. If he left Sun Xing outside, he would be killed if he wasn't careful.
Du Feng wanted to hide in the room with Sun Xing immediately, but Sun Wen could come out of the empty room at any time. It would be troublesome if she encountered the shadow killers alone.
"The Shadow Clan?"
Sun Xing finally realized what was going on. After all, he was a scion of a family that had grown up on the Weiyang Continent. He had some knowledge.
"Yeah, you hide first. I'll wait for Little Wen."
Du Feng wasn't as nervous as before when he faced the shadow killers. In the past, he'd had to throw out a bunch of night pearls to eliminate all the shadows around him before he could catch the shadow killers. Now that his Cultivation Realm was higher, his senses were stronger as well. Every pore on his body could sense the changes around him.
If the enemy didn't move, he wouldn't move. If the enemy moved, he would kill them!
The shadow killers were much more careful now. They didn't attack blindly. Everyone was waiting for a chance, a chance for the enemy to relax. The hallway became abnormally quiet, so quiet that there wasn't even the sound of breathing. The shadow killers didn't breathe, so Du Feng held his breath as well. The sound of breathing would interfere with his judgment.
"We're rich this time, haha!"
"Yeah, this feels great!"
Right at this moment, two warriors walked out of the Life Room and destroyed the tranquil atmosphere.
Oh no! These two weren't stupid. As they chatted, they suddenly realized something was wrong. Why was the surroundings so quiet? Unfortunately, it was too late. A black shadow flashed by. Both of their legs were severed at the knees. The cuts were neat and smooth, as if a sharp knife had cut through soft tofu.
Before they could scream, another black shadow flashed by, and the heads of the two men fell off at the same time. The Shadow Clan assassins had truly mastered the three essentials: steady, accurate, and ruthless! They didn't move, but when they moved, blood would be spilled.
"Kill!"
The Shadow Clan assassins were like that, and Du Feng was even more so. He did not move at all. He was waiting for an opportunity, waiting for the other party to expose his whereabouts. At the same time that the Shadow Clan assassins killed the two martial artists, he attacked with lightning speed. An arc-shaped Sword Qi slashed out. Then, a puchi sound was heard, as if it had struck a piece of cotton.
Looking at the ground again, there was actually a gray liquid seeping out, and it was somewhat viscous. This was the unique gray blood of the Shadow Clan. If one didn't look carefully, they would think it was a stain. Based on the gray blood stains on the ground, it was enough to prove that Du Feng had succeeded. One Shadow Clan member had been wounded or killed. Of course, it could have been two.
Then, the entire corridor fell into silence again. The Shadow Clan assassins weren't in a hurry to surround and attack Du Feng. They knew that rushing to surround him wouldn't be of any use. It might be easy to deal with others, but against an expert like Du Feng, he had to take advantage of his flaws. Tigers still have time to take a nap. I don't believe that he won't reveal any flaws.
"What's going on? I'm so bored."
After a while, a burly man came out of the room with the word 'death' written on it. The fact that he was able to pass through the Death House alone was enough to show that his strength was extraordinary. After coming out, he felt that the surrounding atmosphere wasn't right. He didn't forget to curse a few times. At this time, the Shadow Clan assassin moved. It was the same old rule. First, he attacked the calf.
"Hai!"
This burly man wasn't simple either. When he felt that he was being attacked, blue arcs of electricity burst out from his body. It turned out that he was a martial artist with thunder attribute talent. No wonder he was able to rush out of the Death House. Electric arcs as thick as a thumb wrapped around his body, instantly blocking the Shadow Blade's attack.
"Who dares to sneak attack your grandfather!"
This burly man's words were rough enough, but his strength wasn't ordinary. He clenched his hands and condensed two thunderballs. Without even looking, he pressed them down on both sides of his body. There was a series of crackling sounds. Two of the Shadow Clan assassins had actually been hit by him. Moreover, his attacks were very accurate, right on the head.
Taking advantage of this, Du Feng could clearly see the figures of the Shadow Clan assassins that had been hit by the thunderballs. They were two gray shadow-like things, and one could vaguely make out the shape of a human. It was said that the Shadow Clan came from the reflection of some Supreme Being. They only had males and no females, because that Supreme Being was a man. They didn't marry for their entire lives and relied on breeding.
But now, it seemed that all of this might be true. Such a strange race couldn't mate with normal humans, so they could only rely on splitting themselves.
"This is bad!"
The burly man had killed two Shadow Clan assassins and was in a good mood. Just as he was grinning, he suddenly felt a chill on his neck. He knew that he had fallen into a trap. He had only been paying attention to the attacks from all directions and below. He hadn't expected that there were more Shadow Clan assassins hiding in the ceiling. His body hung upside down and he used the Shadow Blade to touch the assassin's neck.
No matter how much strength the burly man had, it was useless at this moment. He could only blame himself for underestimating his enemy. He had used most of the electricity to condense into thunderballs and hadn't protected his entire body. The neck was originally a weak place, and the Shadow Blade was incomparably sharp. With a light swipe, the carotid artery was severed.
Shadow Clan assassins were different from normal people when they cut the throat. Normal people would cut the trachea, but they would cut the carotid artery from the side. Once the carotid artery was severed, blood would gush out like a fountain. Even if a person didn't die, they would still fall into a panic.
The burly man was the same. He was so frightened that he hurriedly pressed his hand against the wound on his neck. But in the end, this action was the one that took his little life. As soon as he lifted his arm, the electricity on his body went out of control. Before the blood on his neck could stop, his heart was stabbed once more. His eyes were wide open and filled with unwillingness. Then, he collapsed.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Du Feng suddenly shot out a black spider web. This was the combat skill he had stolen from the Black Widow spider. It had been a long time since he had used it. As the spider web covered the burly man, it also covered the two Shadow Clan assassins. Although he couldn't see their faces, he could still make out their silhouettes through the spider web.
"Cut!"
An arc of sword energy shot out, fast and ruthless. Before the two assassins could escape from the spider web, it annihilated them in one fell swoop. This time, Du Feng had already killed three Shadow Clan assassins. In addition to the two that the burly man had killed, the Shadow Clan had lost five members.
