Ten in the evening.
“All of you can stay here tonight, while I'll be away to do some cultivation for the whole night. No need to wait for me!” Ling Yun instructed the seven beauties in the house before he headed out to kill.
Bai Xianer couldn't bear to see Ling Yun leave as she tugged on his s.h.i.+rt and kept silent. Qin Dongxue, however, started worrying, saying, “Brat, since you're going alone to restore spiritual energy, I can place protection over you.”
Qin Dongxue recalled the Devil Sect lady in black clothing in the car that day and felt unsettled since she couldn't detect the strength of the lady.
“Aunty, I'm merely replenis.h.i.+ng my spiritual energy, not breaking through to the next realm. I won't need a protection charm…”
After finally dispelling her worries, Ling Yun left the beauties behind and fled from Mansion Number One.
A gust of strong wind stirred up and howled within Qingshui City.
“Ah! The fresh smell of freedom!” Ling Yun muttered in a dark corner two kilometers away from the mansion as he exhaled deeply in his nocturnal clothing.
“The rainy weather in Qingshui City is coming soon…” Ling Yun muttered once more as he looked up at the faint moon.
The volatile weather of May had created large patches of dark clouds, which could block the moon anytime it waned into a pitiful half crescent.
Nonetheless, the gloomy weather was the perfect time for Ling Yun to kill!
Traversing through the remote paths in the dark using Thousand Miles G.o.dly Steps, Ling Yun soon arrived at the southern suburbs from the bustling city area.
Based on the route Miao Xiaomiao had provided, Ling Yun located the yard where the a.s.sa.s.sins Organization pros resided and stealthily infiltrated into it with a flying leap.
“Hey, the kid was the focal point today. Twenty-one patients on the verge of death and a lunatic who had been insane for over ten years were healed by him just like that! Too f*cking amazing!”
Talking was one of the two drivers. Ling Yun knew, in contrast to his average appearance and figure, the driver was at least at Xiantian Realm Level One.
“It can't be? The thirty-plus people we detained here for several days were from the hospital. And he still cured them?”
“Believe it or not. Had we known that he was so skilled, we could have tried to keep the ten people alive for a little longer. If we sent the ten people over today, maybe it would have been enough to cause the kid some trouble…”
“What's the point of bringing them up? They're already dead. Moreover, we did try to keep them alive by infusing True Qi into them. It's their fault for not hanging on! ”
“Give it up, the ten of them were taken too early from the hospital. They were dying already, and the lack of food for so many days was what killed them!” another driver joked.
From their indifferent and despicable tones, the death of ten people under their hands seemed to be the least of their concerns. It was apparent how little human life was worth in the eyes of the Ura.n.u.s.
Ling Yun's intention to kill had turned from dull to razor-sharp.
He could no longer sit still. Moreover, the casual chats of these killers offered little useful information.
To learn the whereabouts of Xiao Meimei, he had to find the Holy Virgin.
“Whoos.h.!.+”
Ling Yun came out of the shadows and nimbly stood at the center of the yard.
“Everyone from the a.s.sa.s.sins Organization, come meet your death!”
“Who's there!”
“Who is that!”
“Courting death!”
Following provoked roars, twelve pros flew out from several different rooms and surrounded Ling Yun instantly!
“It's you!”
“Ling Yun!”
The Xiantian master that acted as a driver was immensely shocked when he saw that it was Ling Yun!
No one was tracking them, so how did he get here?
“Haha, I thought it was someone significant. So it's a little pretty boy who dares intrude on our turf…”
“Yo, I think he's trying to play hero coming all the way here. Hahaha, I wonder if he knows what 'death' means!”
“Maybe he thinks that we're all commoners, 'meet your death', hahaha…”
The pros from the a.s.sa.s.sins Organization couldn't detect Ling Yun's true strength, hence mocked him arrogantly for coming.
“Yo, so the Ling Yun you guys were talking about is this pretty boy? I was wondering why the Tian Holy Virgin was reluctant to kill him, so she likes him, hahaha…” said an old man in red. He had small eyes that were s.h.i.+ning brilliantly as he stared at Ling Yun, his disregard apparent.
Tian Holy Virgin? So the absolutely beautiful girl in the black veil was the Tian Holy Virgin in the a.s.sa.s.sins Organization?
“Old man, aren't you afraid that the Tian Holy Virgin might hear and slap you to death?” Ling Yun laughed coldly and reminded him.
“Hahahahaha, yo, that's gonna hurt her!” The elder in red clothing leaned back and laughed sardonically. He narrowed his eyes and told Ling Yun, “Of course not, the Tian Holy Virgin has never been here. If you're courting her, you might be at the wrong place!”
“Then, aren't you afraid that I'll relay your words to your Tian Holy Virgin?” Ling Yun laughed and said casually.
These people were going to die anyway, so Ling Yun wanted to extract as much information as he could before killing them.
“Hey, hey, kid, you could have taken the easy path, but instead, you chose to barge into the wolf's den. So many of our people have already died by your hands, and you expect to make it out of here alive? Dream on!” A teenager in a blue s.h.i.+rt laughed coldly.
“I don't want to die, I want to leave here alive…” Ling Yun shook his head nonchalantly.
The elder in red clothing laughed flippantly once more. “Make it out of here alive? You? You're just a pretty boy who heals people, and now you're barging into our territory. Even if the Heavens don't do it, I'll end your life today!”
“On the way to the netherworld, remember this, your murderer is Red Ura.n.u.s!”
Red Ura.n.u.s seemed to be getting impatient as his arms trembled violently. He lifted his b.l.o.o.d.y red palms and charged towards Ling Yun.
“Whoos.h.!.+”
Ling Yun evaded his attack with a sidestep and lightly adjusted the edge of his sleeves. “Be patient, your turn will come soon!” Ling Yun lightly laughed.
Red Ura.n.u.s was in shock after witnessing how easily Ling Yun dodged his strong attack. “Kid, where did you attain this Qinggong? How did you evade my Flying Eagle Punch?” he asked softly.
Ling Yun didn't bother answering him. With utmost seriousness, he looked at the rest of them who were about to die and asked, “Can someone tell me where exactly the Tian Holy Virgin is? How can I contact her? I miss her!”
“Ask someone else when you're on the way to reincarnation!” the indifferent teenager in a blue s.h.i.+rt said calmly, narrowing his eyes and shooting a razor-sharp gaze at Ling Yun.
Meanwhile, three flying daggers s.h.i.+mmering with pale blue light appeared in the hands of the teenager in blue as he stood against the wind.
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoos.h.!.+”
The three flying daggers darted forth at incredible speeds straight toward the top, middle, and bottom region of Ling Yun's back.
“So ignorant!” Ling Yun bellowed as he furrowed his eyebrows. Without evading, he waited for the three daggers to near him before he lightly lifted his hands and deflected the daggers thrice at deceptive speeds!
“Preposterous of you to show off in front of an expert! Even poisoning the edges of the blades?”
Ling Yun caught the three flying daggers that were as thin as cicada wings in his hand, turned around slowly, and watched the teenager that began to panic. He kneaded the three flying knives into dough and dropped them on the ground.
“Fine, since no one wants to answer, all shall die!”
None of the pros from the a.s.sa.s.sins Organization were above Xiantian Realm Level Three, so it was effortless for Ling Yun to wipe them out.
Dragon Fish Phantom Ability!
Leaving behind a very realistic shadow-clone, Ling Yun flashed before the elder. In the face of the panic-stricken elder, Ling Yun delivered a powerful punch straight to his chest.
The Tiangang Demon Fist!
It was impossible for him to evade! All he could do was block the blow with his fists while bellowing in pain.
“Bam!”
After a series of chaotic creaks and cracks, both the elder's arms, including his forearms, were shattered as his emaciated figure was blown back.
“Pfff!”
A copious amount of blood rushed out of his mouth!
Ling Yun smiled and flickered in a circle around the Red Ura.n.u.s before striking again!
“Bam!”
The Red Ura.n.u.s was handicapped and couldn't defend against the blow at all! A strike landed directly on his chest!
“Ah!”
After a loud wail, the Red Ura.n.u.s' heart was shattered by the sheer force of Ling Yun's blow. He collapsed to the floor, blood spraying out rapidly from all his orifices and his chest.
“I've already told you that you'd be the first to die!” Ling Yun stopped in his tracks, smiled briefly at the dying Red Ura.n.u.s, and turned back.
“F*ck! Brothers, we were wrong, this kid is way stronger than us!”
With one blow handicapping the Red Ura.n.u.s and the other ending his life, Ling Yun demonstrated his formidable strength!
He had no need to hold back against a bunch of people who were about to die.
“Together, kill him!”
Knowing that they couldn't beat Ling Yun solo, the remaining eleven pros from the a.s.sa.s.sins Organization charged at him at once!
“So, charging together helps?”
Ling Yun lifted the corner of his lips and stood still. With the Stellar Condensation Technique protecting him, he cast the Tiangang Demon Fist at full strength!
“Bam!”
Ling Yun defeated the pro at the front with one punch, sending him a dozen meters away. He soon fell to the ground and lay puking blood!
“Bam!”
Another died mid-flight after having their heart shattered by his Tiangang Demon Fist!
“Peng, peng, peng, peng…”
One after the other, Ling Yun instantly ended the lives of another four Xiantian Realm masters with just four punches.
The five remaining people scattered into silhouettes in every direction and fled!
