The three of them moved as fast as the wind, arriving at the scene of the incident in the blink of an eye. Outside the room, all the experts of the three Holy Lands had already gathered. Their faces were filled with endless grief and indignation!
Every single one of these people had already reached the realm of the top experts in the world, so their reactions were naturally fast. Adding on to the fact that they basically all lived together, they had already rushed over the moment the tragic cries rang out.
"What happened?" Hai Wu Ya asked with a solemn face.
"It's Xia Dong Ting … Xia Dong Ting is finished …" In the crowd, a purple-robed middle-aged man looked at Hai Wu Ya with a pale face and said in a low voice.
"Get out of the way!" Hai Wu Ya's expression changed again as he rushed forward. The crowd quickly opened up a path for him, directly to the door.
Hai Wu Ya rushed to the door like a whirlwind. Suddenly, his entire body shook, as if he was a statue. He stood there in a daze, his eyes shining with disbelief.
In the room facing the door, half of Xia Dong Ting's face was facing the sky. His face revealed an extremely twisted and strange expression. His eyes were wide open, and in his pupils that had already frozen, there was despair and anger, as well as some strange colors. His two hands were in an extremely strange posture. His left hand was stretched out in a claw shape, and his right hand was bent in an arc towards his shoulder.
On his shoulder, the sword that he always carried with him was still in its scabbard, not even unsheathed! His body was extremely twisted, and his mouth was wide open. Only now was blood slowly flowing out from it … drop by drop, dripping onto the ground …
Hai Wu Ya's body trembled violently, and he slowly raised his head, closing his eyes. After a while, he slowly asked, "Who was the first to arrive here? Come out and answer me! "
A purple-robed man with an unusually sorrowful expression slowly walked out from the crowd.
"When you arrived, what was it like?" Hai Wu Ya's voice was very low, as if there was an uncontrollable anger in it. "What did you discover?"
"This was a perfect assassination!" The purple-robed man's expression was solemn and indignant, but there was also a hint of indescribable panic and fear in his eyes. "Lord Hai, Brother Xia and I are only separated by a wall, but I didn't hear any sound at all during the sudden assassination, and I didn't find anything unusual either! The only sound was Brother Xia's scream. When I got here, it should have been less than half a breath's time. But Brother Xia was already in such a state. "
The corners of the purple-robed middle-aged man's eyes couldn't help but twitch. It was obvious that he had been frightened by his own words!
It wasn't just him. In fact, everyone who heard his words couldn't help but tremble. These words seemed ordinary, but the deeper meaning contained within them was enough to make every single Saint feel threatened and shocked to the extreme!
Only separated by a wall, the assassin killed a Saint, and the other Saint did not hear anything at all, and did not even notice anything unusual … Didn't this mean that if the assassin wanted to, he could assassinate any Saint at will? And there was absolutely no possibility of failure? What kind of terrifying strength did the assassin have?!
Was it shocking? Not yet!
Because the purple-robed man's next words were even more shocking, and even inexplicably shocking.
"Just now, to be more precise, just a quarter of an hour ago, I was still in Brother Xia's room having a long talk with him. Brother Xia once said that the situation before us is like a storm brewing. The enemy's strength is unfathomable, and even though we are stronger, we can't suppress them to the point where they can't fight back. Therefore, none of us can relax our vigilance at all times. Our weapons must always be within arm's reach and be ready to face the enemy at any time. Precisely because we are stronger, the enemy will definitely use some sneaky tricks to exhaust our strength. We must be careful! But now … "
The crowd gasped as they stared at Xia Dong Ting's corpse on the ground and the unmoving sheathed longsword on his back. Everyone's eyes were filled with incredulity!
That was what Xia Dong Ting said, and he believed that he must have done the same thing. However, in such a state of high vigilance, under the attack of the assassin in the dark, his vigilance did not have the slightest effect at all!
If even such a cautious person could not escape, how could the others survive?!
One hit kill, a Saint did not even have the chance to draw his sword out of its sheath! This was a true Martial Saint! The long sword was on his back, and it was the most convenient position for him. With just a thought, he could instantly draw the sword out of its sheath and attack!
But, this sword had lost the chance to be drawn out of its sheath!
Then, just how fast was the assassin's attack speed?!
"When I heard the scream and rushed over, Brother Xia was still breathing, but at that time, he could not speak at all!" The purple-robed man took a deep breath and said, "The most unbelievable thing is … the wound was … in the front of the chest! Without any deviation, the sword hit the vital part of the heart! "
There was an uproar, and then a lot of discussion!
The wound was in the front of the chest, which meant that this arrogant assassin actually attacked face to face!?
A Saint, even if he was facing a direct attack from the Holy Emperor, no matter how scared he was, and even if he knew that he was no match for the Holy Emperor, he would not be so cowardly that he could not draw his sword in time!
But, such an unbelievable fact appeared in front of them … What was going on?
"This wound is a flaw, the fatal wound could not have been the one that hit the heart!" The one who spoke, was Zhan Mubai, who came in later, his eyes shining brightly. He said slowly, "If the sword really hit the heart, then, even if it was a member of the Holy Emperor, he would not have the chance to let out such a shrill scream! He would have died instantly! If that was the case, then it would be a perfect assassination! "
Everyone present was a martial arts expert, and naturally understood the mysteries of the human body. Zhan Mu Bai's words were like enlightenment, causing everyone present to be instantly enlightened. Everyone's eyes, in the next moment, focused on Xia Dongting's corpse on the ground.
Hai Wu Ya took a deep breath, squatted down, and laid Xia Dong Ting's body flat on the ground, and said in a low voice, "Brother Xia, please forgive us. In order to catch the murderer as soon as possible, to prevent other victims, and to avenge Brother Xia! We … have no choice but to offend you. "
All the surrounding Saints felt their hearts go numb. Hai Wu Ya's words indicated what he was going to do — dissect the body, and check the wound! Only by doing so, could they truly solve the mystery, and understand the true cause of death.
Hai Wu Ya stretched out his right hand, and the sword on Xia Dong Ting's back was unsheathed, shining brightly. This sword, was finally unsheathed, but its use was not to kill, but to dissect its own master's body!
To the Saints, this was such a mockery! But now, they could only watch, and endure! They were even looking forward to it …
With a flash of the sword, Xia Dong Ting's shirt was split in the middle, revealing the muscles on his chest. At the position of his heart, there was an extremely small red mark. If one did not look carefully, they would think that it was an accidental scratch from a tree branch. Who would believe that such a small mark could be fatal to Madam?
Hai Wu Ya's fingers lightly pinched the two sides of the red mark, and suddenly exerted some force. A jet of blood shot out abruptly, with an abnormally strong force. With a "shua" sound, it splashed onto the roof, splashing a brilliant red rhododendron.
Hai Wu Ya tilted his head, allowing the jet of blood to pass by his ear. His eyes became even deeper, looking at the wound that he had opened, his pupils constricted, and he muttered, "What a fast sword! What a vicious sword! What a ruthless sword! "
Zhan Mubai's expression was equally solemn, and he nodded slowly.
Only the fastest sword, the fastest sword, could pierce through the chest, where the blood was the most concentrated, and then quickly pull it out, leaving no trace at all. Even the liquid blood could only gather in the abdomen, and was forcefully blocked, with no room for it to flow out!
Everyone present understood this logic, and all of them knew that they could do it, and most of them had done it before! However, if such a sword technique was utilized against a Saint and was able to achieve such an effect, then it was something that no one here was capable of accomplishing!
Such a sword technique had always been used to bully the weak. Only when used against an opponent several levels lower than oneself, could it be used freely, and succeed in one strike! Using such a method against an opponent of the same level, or even higher, was an act of courting death!
Saints were existences that had a second life, and the strength of their bodies was indescribable. Even if a normal Tian Xuan expert wielded a divine weapon and slashed thousands of times, they might not be able to break through a Saint's Xuan Qi defense!
Also, a Saint's reaction was also shockingly fast. Once the sword entered the body, the moment they sensed that something was wrong, they could completely tighten their muscles, and at the same time, shift the position of their heart, causing the enemy's sword to stab into the air, and even make use of the enemy's mistake to launch a swift counterattack!
But this sword, cleanly and cleanly destroyed a Saint's defense! None of the necessary reactions were produced! All they could do was let out an instinctive scream!
"I believe that everyone has seen clearly, this is where the true fatal injury lies! And it was precisely such a sword! Even a Saint was helpless and helpless against it! This also confirms Brother Xia's judgment, the enemy's strength is indeed unfathomable, there is an ultimate killer hidden by our side, and his strength is enough to shake the heavens and earth! From today onwards, all Saints must maintain a room of three, and be on high alert! As soon as there is a warning, immediately sound the alarm! We must not be careless, "Hai Wu Ya said solemnly.
Everyone present agreed in unison, all of them understood that Hai Wu Ya's words were not just to scare them, the slightest carelessness, and they could very well become another Xia Dong Ting.
"Wait! I'm afraid this matter is not as simple as it seems! "Zhan Mubai scoffed," The true meaning of this sword, I'm afraid it is far from just this. It is more like the killer is trying to demonstrate to us. "
