Chapter 378: Assassins (1/2)
Swish!
Using Moon Evasion, Lin Xiao reappeared beside the assassin outside. He felt a bit strained because of the terrain, though, as it was not easy to move so fast from the third floor to the first floor.
The assassin noticed Lin Xiao and tried to escape. However, how could Lin Xiao let him?
Chilling Lake Sword, Sixth Stance!
The mighty and chilling aura completely permeated the area as Lin Xiao struck forward, rendering the assassin unable to move. The ice spread on the ground, freezing the assassin.
After gaining enough mastery and advancing his rank, Lin Xiao could now control the freezing attribute. Added with his good sword and also his understanding of the skill, it was now possible for him to freeze a part of his opponent's body that got hit by his sword's attack.
Clang!
The assassin desperately tried to destroy the ice.
Lin Xiao hadn't yet to move when he sensed someone had already moved. The wind fluttered before it completely trapped that assassin.
Wind Cage!
Bang!
The assassin was pushed down as if there was an invisible force above him. He helplessly laid on the ground without moving in the slightest bit. His eyes reflected fear as he knew that it would be hard for him to avoid punishment or even death.
”Sorry for disturbing you in the middle of the night,” Lin Xiao said calmly.
Fan Ling, who woke up in the middle of her cultivation due to the noise, had rushed out. With her wind element and also her movement skill, she arrived out the fastest out of everyone. Seeing Lin Xiao fought, her instinct made her move to restrain the enemy first.
”No big deal.” Fan Ling flicked her hair. ”Who did you offend this time?”
”I wonder about that too. I was about to go to sleep when someone disturbed my beauty sleep and tried to kill me.”
Beauty sleep?
Fan Ling's lips twitched. If they were not facing an assassin right now, she would seriously consider smacking Lin Xiao for his choice of words. At this time, Lin Yun and Lu Jian had also appeared and naturally looked over to the man who were restrained by Fan Ling's technique.
Lin Xiao bent down and pulled the assassin's mask. An unfamiliar face greeted him but it was not the same for Fan Ling. Her eyes turned icy. ”What do you think you're doing Du Si An?”
”Du Si An?” Lin Yun asked.
Lu Jian furrowed his brows as his brain sorted out many names that he had memorized. It didn't seem to match with any people… oh wait.
”Fan Pei's right hand? Du Si An, 24 years old, Golden Core Stage 1 and also a servant in Fan Family?” Lu Jian asked, listing out the information he had memorized before.
Lin Xiao nearly vomited when he heard Lu Jian listed someone's information so easily. Did this man possibly memorize everyone's information inside his head?
