Chapter 768 - She Is a Friend of Mine (2/2)
She lost her temper. Clenching her teeth, Ghost launched a swift series of attacks. The force of her energy swept through the air. A wind was blowing wildly across the battlefield where she fought with Silver Dragon. The dead leaves, gravel, and dust on the ground lifted into the air as they battled on.
“Great. Here comes my opportunity!”
Silver Dragon gave a sly smile. He pretended to dodge a palm attack from Ghost. But in fact, he moved behind her and threw a solid palm strike on her back.
“URGHH!”
Ghost spat out blood. She staggered forward after losing her footing and almost fell to the ground.
The other mercenaries quickly advanced and surrounded her. They hooked Ghost to a sharp iron claw and then used a thick rope to tie her hands together. In a blink of an eye, they caught the bleeding vampire girl.
“Assh*le!”
Ghost clenched her teeth. She tried to struggle out of the claw, but the iron claw was like barbwire. Whenever she moved, it would bite into her flesh. The pain was so sharp that she could not help but scream.
“The more you struggle, the more painful you will feel. Stay there quietly!” said Silver Dragon coldly.
His voice sounded indifferent and evil. His eyes were full of greed and malice.
“Boss, we will be rich!” said Camel. He stood next to Silver Dragon, and his eyes lit up as he gazed at Ghost.
“Of course. This girl is from the Sucking Blood Clan. Is there another mercenary group in the Mu City that has captured a vampire? The Silver Wing Mercenary Group will be famous. Everyone, we will enjoy a glorious life together,” said Silver Dragon proudly.
“Long live our mighty boss!” shouted Camel as he bootlicked his leader.
The others followed Camel’s lead and shouted, “Long live our mighty boss! We’ll have excellent wine, delicious food, and pretty women.”
“Enough. Don’t flatter me. Tie the vampire chick securely!” Silver Dragon lifted his hand to interrupt them. However, his expression showed he appreciated their flattery.
Then, Silver Dragon finally remembered Xiao Luo was there too. He walked over and patted Xiao Luo on his shoulder. He said with a smile, “Bro, I have sought justice for you. We have captured the vampire chick. You should take some credit for that as well.”
Ghost threw Xiao Luo a desperate and hateful look. Her pretty face looked dismayed. She looked as if she was saying, “You turned out to be one of them.”
Xiao Luo was expressionless. He glanced at the blood-covered Ghost. Then he asked Silver Dragon, “What are you going to do with her?”
“We are taking her to the Mu City to sell her, of course. You are a hunter, so you might be ignorant of the price we could charge for a vampire chick in Mu City. We, the Silver Wing Mercenary Group…”
Suddenly, he stopped talking. Xiao Luo had launched a surprise attack and stabbed Silver Dragon’s chest with a dagger that he hid in his sleeve. Xiao Luo was like a lurking viper in the shadows, striking his opponent with a fatal blow with no warning.
Silver Dragon stared down at the dagger stuck in his chest. He lifted his head to gaze at Xiao Luo, hardly able to believe what had happened. “You… you… why…”
He had never thought Xiao Luo would harm him. It was a decisive attack that was executed with lightning speed. Even a Martial Emperor would not have been able to dodge it, let alone Silver Dragon, who was only a Martial Lord. Blood kept oozing from the wound and dyed his clothes red.
Xiao Luo had even surprised the Duck Emperor, who was hiding in his pocket.
The duck did not sense Xiao Luo’s intent to kill at all. Like a wolf hiding under sheepskin, Xiao Luo looked harmless. So, it was easy for him to execute the fatal attack when the enemy let his guard down. The timing was precise, and the dagger pierced through Silver Dragon’s heart. It was a strike that even an Immortal of the Great Heavens could not escape.
Xiao Luo looked at Silver Dragon and promptly replied, “Did I not tell you? She is a friend of mine!”
