Upon realizing that Ye Gu Han was too busy to chase after him, the other assassin leader let out a huge sigh of relief. He scanned his surroundings as he was escaping and noticed that the douchebag, Jun Mo Xie, had somehow shifted himself and was now facing the sky. Jun Mo Xie’s eyes appeared to be slightly open too. The assassin leader was caught by surprise: Is it possible that this asshole is still alive?
The assassin leader swivelled his head around and realized that Ye Gu Han was still trying to finish off the other assassin leader, which meant that Ye Gu Han had no time to attend to him. The escaping assassin leader felt bolder.
Our mission to kill Princess Ling Meng was a failure. But what if we were to kill Jun Mo Xie instead? The capital would descend into chaos too, right? The assassin leader halted his footsteps and crept up to Jun Mo Xie, ready to stab his sword into the body of the douchebag!
Right at that moment, Jun Mo Xie opened his eyes and slyly whispered, ”I am going to f*ck your mother!”
Amidst the loud thundering of incoming horses’ hooves, no one could hear the low whisper from Jun Mo Xie. They were at a distance too far away, several zhangs (3.04m), to pick up anything. Not only that, they were also too busy paying attention to Ye Gu Han’s battle. Only the fleeing assassin leader, who was close enough, could make out Jun Mo Xie’s words. Instantaneously, a huge wave of fury swept over him!
Just because I was unable to deal with the Sky Xuan expert, you think you can taunt me like that? What makes you think that I cannot kill a pathetic hedonist like you?
The assassin leader swooped down, his sword poised out in a vicious manner. ”I will take you down!” he cursed.
Just then, a jade blue color shot out, seemingly bringing the whole azure ocean with it. Out of nowhere, a deep blue flying dagger appeared, going straight for the assassin’s throat!
”OMG...Sky Xuan…” The assassin leader was stunned and his whole body was rooted to the spot. Shock, along with his initial momentum of moving downwards, caused him to lose his balance and fell. Even before the assassin leader reached the ground, the deep blue flying dagger had already penetrated deep into his throat!
Even at the moment of his death, the assassin leader was still perturbed. Ye Gu Han was 30 zhangs (91.2m) away from him, so how did the flying dagger appear here? What just happened? The assassin leader’s eyes bulged widely even in his death, just like a scholar in seek of knowledge...
The injuries that were inflicted on Jun Xie earlier on were not light and his movements were slow. Even though the sword wound was manageable, the wound from the two kicks given by the Silver level assassin was constantly throbbing with pain. As Jun Xie watched the Gold level assassin fall to his death, he realized, to his utmost horror, that the assassin was still tightly gripping onto his sword...
”You unrepentant bastard!! Screw you and your whole family!” swore Jun Xie under his breath. With all his might, he forced his body to move away from the sword that was heading directly towards him.
Splat! The corpse of the dead assassin leader dropped right smack into Jun Xie’s lithe figure. Immediately, the sword in the dead assassin leader’s hand slit into Jun Xie’s thigh, right where there was the most flesh!
If the sword had slit just slightly to the left, Jun Xie would, unwittingly, have become a eunuch within the palace...
”Shit… F*ck!” The already weak Jun Xie was flattened by the heavy body of the dead assassin. He was immobile. The next thing he knew was that the sword had slit his thigh. A new wave of pain washed over him. The Young Master Jun lamented to himself: Even a dead assassin is able to use his sword to harm me! What are the odds!? Why am I so unfortunate!
Unfortunately, the sword had pierced through Jun Xie’s thigh and straight into the ground beneath it. Any attempt to move his thigh would aggravate the wound. Worst still, it might even damage his tendons. As a result, Jun Xie could only remain still, with the dead weight of the assassin leader pressing on to him. The image of the dead assassin piercing his sword through Jun Xie was a sight to behold!
