Chapter 769 - : You Can’t Catch Up to Me (1/2)
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Luo pulled the dagger out of Silver Dragon’s chest and repeatedly stabbed his belly. It all happened within seconds.
“Gulp!”
The Duck Emperor swallowed with much difficulty. Xiao Luo had worn a poker face all along. Then without warning, he killed that man as if he was killing livestock. Xiao Luo’s ruthlessness and his ability to kill with no remorse frightened Duck Emperor.
“You…”
Blood flowed from Silver Dragon’s nose and mouth. He looked at Xiao Luo in shock. He had never thought he would die that way. He was being stabbed to death by a hunter who was only a Martial Master, while he was a Martial Lord, three levels above Martial Master. How was the guy able to kill him? The guy dared to attack him!
A chilling light flashed in Xiao Luo’s eyes. He slashed the dagger across Silver Dragon’s neck like a sword.
SLASH!
With one quick move, Silver Dragon’s throat was slit open. Even a Martial Lord with strong vitality could no longer hold on to his life with his throat cut. The large muscular man fell backward with an upright posture. Thud! Dust stirred from the ground when he collapsed in a heap. Silver Dragon laid still with his eyes wide open.
It only took several seconds from the moment Xiao Luo stabbed Silver Dragon to the time he laid dead on the ground.
The mercenaries realized Xiao Luo had killed their leader when they saw Silver Dragon fall to the ground. Their happy faces instantly froze. They gazed in shock at his bloody lifeless body, unable to believe what they saw. Who could have believed their leader, who had been so full of vigor only moments ago, was lying dead in a pool of blood?
“Lil’ Luoluo…”
Ghost stared at Xiao Luo in a daze. Then she slowly smiled as she realized she had wronged Xiao Luo. Xiao Luo was not an accomplice of those jerks. Neither did he repay her kindness with evil.
“Boss!”
Camel, the deputy of the Silver Wing Mercenary Group, screamed. It brought the mercenaries out of their stupor, and they immediately came to their senses.
Pointing his knife angrily at Xiao Luo, he said, “Jerk, what have you done? Our boss took you in out of kindness. He was going to take you out of the Dark Forest. Yet you bit the hand that fed you!”
“Bit the hand that fed me?”
Xiao Luo gave Camel an indifferent smile as he spoke. He took the Dragon Saber out of the Duck Emperor’s Spatial Ring and pointed its tip at the ground. The black blade was radiating with a chilly aura. Then he continued, “You think I do not know what he was planning to do? Was he taking me out of the Dark Forest out of kindness? Or was he going to sacrifice me to ensure safety for all of you if you ran into the Sucking Blood Clan? I believe you know better than anyone here.”
They had a falling-out anyway, so there was no need for pretense anymore. Xiao Luo had now recovered somewhat, and he had reached the Great Martial Master level. Most of the mercenaries were also at the Great Martial Master level, with two or three of them at the more powerful Martial Spirit level, and Camel was one of them. The situation did not look favorable at all for Xiao Luo. But despite the odds, Xiao Luo could not stand to see them torture Ghost after they captured her.
The corner of Camel’s eye twitched. He realized Xiao Luo had been aware of their plan, so he had nothing more to say. He shouted, “Send two fellows to watch this vampire chick. The others come with me. Let us kill this b*stard and avenge our boss!”
Xiao Luo had killed Silver Dragon, so Camel did not have the nerve to act alone. It would be safer to attack Xiao Luo together with the others.
Over ten men moved in unison, snarling. They attacked Xiao Luo like starving wolves. Instead of retreating, Xiao Luo went into the attack with intense fury. It startled his attackers into thinking he might be a god of carnage. Otherwise, how could his killing intent be so terrifying?
There was no time to think, for they were on the cusp of a violent, desperate fight.
