Chapter 263: King Sosurim!, Part Two (2/2)
To think that he would be so strong!, Wang Chong sighed deeply as coldness welled in his heart.
Currently, Ma Yinlong and Luo Chong were the two strongest men by his side. The incredible black Stellar Energy that tore apart everything in its path that Wang Chong first saw back at the Bureau of Personnel yamen branch had left him with a deep impression.
On the other hand, the master archer which King Song assigned him with had refreshed Wang Chong's understanding of master archers with the incredible might of his arrows. To those beneath Profound Martial realm, he was no different from a God of Death.
With that archer standing behind him, Wang Chong felt extremely safe.
And yet, the both of them actually weren't able to stop this old woodsman. In fact, the latter even grabbed Luo Chong's arrow with his bare hand.
This situation was unprecedented!
With a strong sense of danger overwhelming him, Wang Chong immediately drove his war steed back. It seemed like he had severely underestimated this chief spy of Goguryeo.
”Hehehe!”
Grabbing the shaft of the arrow, the old woodsman released a sinister laughter.
”To think that a pair of shoes would be my undoing. Young man, I really have underestimated you. I intended to kill you a little later, but who knew that you would come seeking your death so anxiously.”
Shua! Kacha!
He threw the bamboo hat onto the ground with his left hand while breaking the thick metal arrow in two with his right.
Then, the old woodsman slowly lifted up his head and tore off the mask tattered by the collision of Stellar Energy just a moment ago.
A foreign middle-aged man with narrow eyes reminiscent of a wary and cunning fox appeared before everyone's eyes.
The callousness projected through his distinctive facial features sent warning bells chiming in everyone's hearts.
Only with the viciousness of a wolf could one maintain an ironclad grip over an organization,
Only with the cunning of a fox was one able to escape from whatever dangerous position one was in.
Wang Chong had never seen King Sosurim before, but the features of the old man made him ever more certain that he wasn't mistaken.
The dangerous and vicious disposition he carried far surpassed any assassin or murderer. Even the three Goguryeon heads would pale before him.
”Gongzi, be careful!”
Sensing the hostility from the other party, Miyasame Ayaka's crouching figure immediately rushed forward to protect Wang Chong.
”King Sosurim, I'll kill you!”
The revelation of the other party's face smashed any remaining doubts the crowd had of his identity. With reddened eyes, Ma Yinlong, Old Eagle, Solitary Wolf, and Steel Arms dashed forward.
Roar!
Peng peng peng peng, powerful auras exploded from the four. Solitary Wolf with his massive saber, Steel Arms with his one-handed sword, Ma Yinlong with his fearsome Stellar Energy, and Old Eagle with his iron fists; the four of them charged forward.
”Hah, four losers actually dare to challenge me!”
The old woodsman, or rather, King Sosurim, crushed the lumber before him with his left hand, and three cold gleaming Goguryeon sabers immediately fell into his hands.
Boom!
A powerful surge of Stellar Energy mixed with sharp saber qi burst forth like a huge storm. In an instant, Ma Yinlong, Steel Arms, Solitary Wolf, and Old Eagle were all knocked back.
King Sosurim was too strong!
With his full strength raging out, he looked nothing like that weak old woodsman from before.
Other than Old Eagle, the other three were at Profound Martial realm 1-dan or 2-dan. Yet, even when collaborating with one another, they weren't King Sosurim's opponent at all.
Not only that, they even felt a fatal threat from the three sabers in King Sosurim's hands.
”Lad, you have foiled my plans too many times. Let me start with you!”
After pushing back Ma Yinlong and the others, King Sosurim dashed forward, his movement directed straight at Wang Chong.
Of everyone here, Wang Chong was the easiest target, as well as the target whose life he wanted to claim the most now.
This young lad from the Wang Clan had made him feel restricted no matter what he did. If he didn't kill the other party now, he wouldn't be able to continue on with his plans confidently.
This young lad was simply too smart!
Furthermore, King Sosurim had a feeling that if he were to allow this young lad to grow, he would eventually become a huge danger to the empire. By then, it would be too late!
Cornered as he was, he was confident in breaking out of this encirclement with his superior cultivation. By then, he could choose to either conceal himself within the capital or escape through the secret tunnel.
Even if there was someone standing guard at the tunnel, he was confident of getting past them to escape.
”Die!”
Three cold saber qi rushed straight for Wang Chong, who was galloping away on the back of his horse.
