Chapter 107 Playing Tricks (Part 1) (1/2)

Proceeding eastwards all the way through, he reached the east city gates. Ye Wuchen did not head back, and instead exited the gates. Outside, in a nearby distance, the corners of Ye Wuchen mouth turn up as he completely reveals the extent of his power. White shadows emitted from his body. Like he was flying on the ground he uses a frightening speed to run ahead, causing the passers-by in the surroundings to be surprised and flabbergasted.

Ye Wuchen’s speed could be considered universally shocking, but Tao BaiBai, who was regarded as the number one killer, did not lack in speed. After a moment of amazement, his body similarly exuded the white shadow that swept in front of him. His speed was as fast as Ye Wuchen’s, and dust clouds of sand and dirt formed from the dry land.

Behind them, tailing from a distance were the four messengers Feng, Hua, Xue, and Yue, who looked at each other in shock and cried out in surprise, “So fast!”

They did not have the time for hesitation. With all their might, they pushed their speeds to the maximum level and then chase after the direction of the two whose distances only grew farther and farther away.

Tao BaiBai knew that his presence had been exposed, so his only aim was to overtake then kill immediately.

Ye Wuchen turned to look, and the sight made his heart shiver slightly, “So fast!”

The two white shadows, one in front and the other at the back, were evenly matched during the chase. Ye Wuchen clearly knew that it was due to his secret power that he was able to achieve the same speed as Tao BaiBai. If he was to directly go against the man, he would be unable to withstand a single blow. As he continuously used his top speed, his energy was quickly being consumed, and the one who will be in a difficult position would be him.

Ye Wuchen was like a cool breeze, while Tao BaiBai was like a light mist. Ye Wuchen was amazed at Tao BaiBai’s speed. And though Tao BaiBai’s face was still as emotionless as a dead man, internally he was a hundred times more surprised than Ye Wuchen.

He had thought that in the entire Tian Long Nation, aside from the God of Sword who had vanished without a trace for twenty years, no one would ever be able to contend against him in terms of speed. He had been completely caught off guard, and the opposing party was a young man who did not even exceed his twenties. He already brought out his fastest speed, but with the lack of difference, he was still unable to draw any nearer.

Tao BaiBai was not actually his real name. His family name was not Tao, because Heavenly Star Continent did not have this family name. His name was actually TaoAnd so his father was naturally a Tao named Tao Tailang… Ah, should be Tao Tailang .

[Explanation time!!! Tao BaiBai’s current alias, is Tao as in “peach” or ‘桃’. He says his real name was Tao as in “pottery” or ‘陶’. But he slips and calls his dad by the alias last name, “桃太郎” which is Momotaro from the japanese peach boy legend. Then he corrects himself to say his dad’s name was “陶太郎” which is some clay doll making company. Basically, this was all one bad pun.]

But because of a good man called Mars Gravity, who was making fun of him, he was still called Tao BaiBai.

The two of them had speeds that were too fast, and after a few moments, they had already cleared a distance of ten kilometers. The surroundings no longer had traces of any passers-by, and ahead of Ye Wuchen was a gloomy view. With astonishment, he realized it was the Black Forest that had caused people to flinch and run from the area. Having used his fastest speed to reach this far, he eventually started to feel somewhat exhausted.

Ye Wuchen’s footsteps abruptly stopped the moment he entered the Black Forest, then turned to glance at Tao BaiBai who was still absorbing the dust from his wake. Just as he expected, Tao BaiBai did not directly clash against him, and instead he stopped at a distance of ten meters from him, glancing at him with a cold gaze.

A real killer should not expose themselves, but remain hidden in a dark place, to be able to execute a strike that would surely kill the target. If he was not able to kill in one strike then he should flee a thousand miles away, without delay.

“You are not a worthy killer.” Ye Wuchen said smiling, with a relaxed face, and without any form of impatience or fear, “Firstly, you didn’t accurately find inside information on your target, then you strike without any careful consideration. Sometimes your failed assassinations will result in your own life becoming lost. Secondly, you should have launched a surprise attack without hesitation. When I stopped, you also stopped. Obviously, your heart was confused, and you lost confidence. A killer should do things neat and tidy, but now you are full of hesitation.”

How can Tao BaiBai relax his mind when facing a person comparable to himself? If he had such speeds, would his powers even be what was initially expected?”

Or maybe, his powers only manifested in speed?

“Thirdly, what a pity you are called the number one killer. I suppose you didn’t know that you are only being used as a tool. If you had known that my teacher was the God of Sword, would you still have traveled a thousand miles just to kill me?”

Clink.

Tao BaiBai slowly pulled out the sword suspended at his waist. The blade had an almost dazzling color of silver, was very short, and very thin. The moment it was unsheathed, the smell of blood assailed Ye Wuchen’s nostrils. This was the smell of a slaughter that reeked of much bloodshed.

“I, Tao BaiBai, have never feared anybody. Since you are my target, you… should die!” his withered lips moved rapidly, spilling out a voice that was exceptionally rough and horrible. He was a man of few words who could keep silent for long periods of time, so his facial muscles had became obviously stiff.

“Fourthly, you should never have opened your mouth to talk.” Ye Wuchen shook his head irresolutely, “I don’t know you got that number one killer title. Although you could have the power to take control of the Tian Long Nation, you should not be arrogant. The most fundamental character of a killer is being calm and cautious, yet you disregard them. If you continue to do this way, you could end up disastrously…”

The great number one killer was unexpectedly being lectured by his victim. The muscles on Tao BaiBai’s face twitched slightly, as he was about to make his next move only to discover that Ye Wuchen had pulled up a small black ball from his pocket. In a joyfully satisfied manner, his victim spoke, “You know why I’m not afraid of you? Because I have these mines from the Hua Family. No matter how strong you are, as the number one killer, once you are hit by one of my mines you will still die in pieces, hehe…”
