903 A Strong Girl (1/2)
His upper body flew to the air as his eyes couldn't comprehend what just happened before dying.
'Now, this is something interesting.' Alex narrowed his eyes. He couldn't help but remember the betrayal that he got on Earth. He was lucky to keep his life and finally got his revenge, but that man indeed had died, unable to take his revenge.
”Goryuu!” The young lady screamed in disbelief. ”Why did you kill him?! No, that can wait…”
”Hehe… Not only are you beautiful, but you are also smart. But do you think you can win against me, especially in that state?” Goryuu grinned. ”Thanks to the second young master to think of this master plan! He ordered me to kill you, but he didn't say I can't have fun first, right?”
The young lady took a deep breath as she conjured her Sword Qi.
Goryuu also raised his stance, knowing that he would certainly need to fight for a few minutes before subduing this little lady. After all, her attack power alone was something hard to handle, even for a 1-Star Martial Saint like himself.
To his surprise, the young lady suddenly turned around and ran away.
”Wha—” Goryuu immediately chased her while trying to calm himself down.
Seeing this situation, the young lady smirked before leaping to the sky and landing on a tree. She stepped as hard as possible to the point it crushed the tree and launched her back toward Goryuu.
Goryuu obviously didn't foresee this matter and gritted his teeth.
”Void Blade. Thunder Strike.”
She moved like lightning toward Goryuu as a thunderclap echoed.
Before he realized it, the young lady already passed him, leaving a deep wound sword on his chest. Blood started dripping out of the wound, but the man didn't scream out of pain. Instead, he laughed as if everything went according to the plan.
The young lady certainly felt it too as her hand was shaking. Importantly, she lost her sword.
Looking a bit further away, she found her sword flying for a few seconds before piercing the ground.
”I have followed you so many years. Do you think I don't know your technique?” He grinned.
'Targeting my sword? No, he targeted my hand earlier.' The young lady gritted his teeth. Because of the impact produced by the clash of the sword earlier, he managed to numb the lady's hand. In other words, he intentionally let her cut his chest just to stop her from using a sword again for a period of time.
Even so, the young lady remained calm and took out two swords, one in each hand.
The young man only smirked as he swallowed a pill to heal the wound on his chest before leaping toward the lady. ”Hehe… I will make sure you have a nightmare before killing you!”
Clank.
He struck her sword with his sword, but the lady still resisted by summoning lightning from her body.
Goryuu immediately created a distance and took a deep breath. ”The one that is allowing you to use all those high-speed movements. However, you have used too much energy, and I believe this will be your last attack. I won't let you hit me anymore.”
”You can try.” She gritted her teeth and disappeared. She only had one chance to survive this ordeal, but that chance was too low.
Goryuu could keep up with her movement, albeit barely. He struck her swords to stop her momentum and punched her stomach to blast her away.
”Gah!” The lady spat blood as she was blown away, rolling on the ground.
A weight suddenly fell on top of her, and she found Goryuu was sitting on top of her stomach while piercing his sword right beside her face, grazing a bit of her cheek.
”I've got you!” He smirked.
”Why are you doing this?! No, who do you serve?”
The guy smiled and took something out of his Space Ring. ”Before that…”
”Mmhmm!”
Goryuu placed his hand on the young lady's mouth, stopping her from talking. However, the real reason was to make her swallow the medicine he hid in that palm.
She instantly realized what kind of pill she just swallowed. Her face became pale as she found her strength leaving her body. Soon enough, all her body stopped moving.
Goryuu licked his lips vulgarly and smiled. ”Haha… Don't worry. I don't like using aphrodisiacs because breaking someone as composed as you are more enjoyable.”
”You—” The young lady furrowed her eyebrows. ”Do you think that brother of mine can protect you from my father?”
”That is enough, Young Lady Aria. None of you have realized that even your brother is just controlled by someone else!”
