C71 (1/2)
Hearing that, Hao Qiang could only smile, ”There are too many people targeting me. I don't know which one you're talking about.”
”You'll know soon enough.” The voice laughed strangely.
The only thing he could do now was to try his best to avoid the situation as much as possible. Furthermore, he had to increase his speed because time was of the essence. Even if he could reverse the flow of time, there was still a limit.
”Hao Qiang, your injuries are very serious right now. It's not suitable for you to fight anyone else. You'd better not go.” At this moment, Lei Li said worriedly from the side.
Jiang Lin looked at his blood-soaked clothes and nodded in agreement. ”Just admit defeat later.”
Hao Qiang looked at them and shook his head, ”If it was that simple, he wouldn't have gone through so much trouble to get me to go up on stage. I'm afraid that this battle would only end with death.”
Hearing this, both of them were stunned, but after some careful thought, it turned out to be the case. If he could admit defeat directly, then he wouldn't be so stubborn.
While the three of them were discussing among themselves, there was an abnormal fluctuation in the air. In the midst of that invisible fluctuation, two figures slowly appeared in the air.
”We meet again, junior apprentice-brother.” The person spoke indifferently, but his voice was exceptionally hollow, as if it had traveled through time and was filled with fatigue.
Hao Qiang looked at the person in front of him and his gaze gradually turned serious.
”Senior Brother, I did not expect it to be you!” He really didn't expect to see Jing Yan again under such a scenario.
”I said that I would come back to find you, and now that I have come, I have the determination to kill you.” Jing Yan stared daggers at Hao Qiang as his thin figure finally revealed its true appearance.
And right behind him was his little apprentice, a boy in his adolescence who had grown up so fast that he had gradually shed his youthful appearance from when they first met, and now had the shadow of a mature man.
Killing intent slowly surfaced in Hao Qiang's eyes as he looked at the other party's confident expression, ”I also said that if I see you again, I won't show any mercy.”
Jing Yan chuckled and took out his short blade, ”That's just perfect.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he dashed straight towards Hao Qiang.
Although the crowd didn't know what their grudges were, they still spontaneously retreated from the battle to give the two of them enough space to fight.
Even though Hao Qiang was heavily injured, the willpower that he had trained through countless life and death battles was still supporting him, preventing him from falling easily on the battlefield. For people like Hao Qiang, the most important thing wasn't how to use their abilities to crush their opponents. It was how to obtain the final victory in a situation that was disadvantageous to them.
Only by doing so could he stand within the world of assassins.
Hao Qiang was well aware of this logic. As a senior brother, Jing Yan naturally knew this as well. Thus, he immediately used his killing move. His attack was sharp and deadly. This was the only way to quickly destroy the will of the other party.
As for the injuries on his opponent's body, Jing Fang had chosen to ignore them. In the world of assassins, there was no such thing as victory or defeat.
Whether it was victory being returned to the king, or failure being left behind on the ground, the rules of survival in this world were just too cruel.
One of them was a new disciple, while the other was a new disciple. Therefore, the two were very familiar with each other's movements. Even though both sides held the attitude that the other was doomed to die, the two of them had fallen into a deadlock in an instant!
Looking at the two people on the stage, everyone broke out in a cold sweat for them.
At this moment, Ewen Wen woke up from her short coma. When she saw Hao Qiang's blood-soaked look, her heart was in turmoil. She wished that she could be the one on the stage right now.
Seeing how nervous she was, Jiang Lin patted her shoulder to comfort her.
However, after looking at it for a while, the more she looked, the more puzzled she became.
”Lei Li, why are their moves the same?” Ewen asked worriedly as she looked at the deadlock.
”Because that's his senior brother.” Lei Li said.
When she heard that, she looked at Lei Li in surprise, ”Didn't the [Dynasty] all perish? You guys are the only ones still alive?” How come I've never heard you mention him before? ”
Lei Li smiled bitterly when he heard this, ”But that's the truth. Furthermore, he is no longer part of the [Dynasty]. More than ten years ago, he was kicked out of the Ghost Domain.”
”Then what's going on? How did he become a member of the [Ghost Domain]?”
Hearing her confusion, Lei Li shook his head, indicating that he didn't know either. If possible, he also wanted to rush up to Jing Yan and ask what was on his mind. As long as the people who investigated knew that it was the [Ghost Domain] that caused the [Dynasty] to be destroyed overnight. As the only son of the previous [Emperor], he actually did such a thing. It was truly...
Lei Li didn't know how to describe it anymore.
In his heart, as long as he had some rationality, he would not do such a thing.
However, no matter how conflicted the audience was, there was a new change on the field.
