Chapter 526

== Assassin 1 ==
LC meets Xiao Cui (小翠), a young woman in disciple robes.
But LC realizes 'she' is actually a male assassin disguised as a woman, so LC kills him.
'Xiao Cui' reveals that he is from the Bloodkill Hall.
"Long Chen, being targeted by my Bloodkill Hall is equivalent to having a Yama King stuck to you. Death will be your final end, haha... pfft!"
Unexpectedly, the assassin self-destructed, filling the sky with blood.
"What? Even his blood contains poison. What viciousness." Long Chen suddenly felt the world spinning around him.
== Assassin 2 ==
Just at this moment, another figure popped out of nowhere and stabbed a dagger towards Long Chen's back.
He was another assassin who had been patiently waiting this entire time, not releasing the slightest aura or hostility. Even when his companion had been stabbed, he hadn't released the slightest fluctuation. He only revealed himself when his companion had self-destructed and poisoned Long Chen, flashing into action to kill him with a single blow.
A blood-red saber seemed to inadvertently and yet also intentionally spin through the air, just happening to slash apart that assassin's waist, cutting him in two.
== Assassin 3 ==
The saber clanged onto the ground. At the same time, Long Chen also fell to the ground.
A black arrow suddenly shot out of the room at his heart.
Just as the arrow was about to reach him, Long Chen raised a hand covered in violet light and smashed apart the arrow. At the same time, he also pointed a finger.
"Lightning Finger."
A bolt of lightning shot out of his finger and instantly pierced into the room. The sound of a body exploding rang out.
Only then did Long Chen crawl up from the ground and pat the dust off his body. Picking up his saber, he looked at the corpses, his expression a bit odd.
"Looks like I've been feeling too secure recently. I actually forgot to activate my divine sense immediately," he muttered to himself.
He had been afraid of them getting away, so he had put on an act of almost dying. Assassins were only specialized in assassinations and fleeing. He had no assurance in being able to chase one of them down.
Only once all three were dead and there was no one else around did he get back up.
== Cleaning Up ==
The corpse on the ground was the only one that was remotely intact. It had a bronze badge.
Picking up the badge, he saw a skull had been carved into it, and at the mouth of the skeleton was a bloody dagger.
The carving was extremely exquisite, almost lifelike. It was extremely bloody, and the carving of the blood dripping from the dagger was extremely chilling. On the other side of the badge was a strange mark, but he was unable to understand its meaning. Perhaps it was a code name, or perhaps it was their level.
"They were all at the mid Bone Forging realm, so their cultivation bases weren't high, and their combat abilities weren't outstanding. But they were specialized in assassinations. They are cold-hearted, emotionless, uncaring about their own lives..."
Long Chen was lost in thought. The Bloodkill Hall's assassins had finally arrived. Their abilities truly were powerful.
Somehow, they had managed to sneak their way into the first monastery. That didn't mean that the monastery's defenses weren't good enough, but that these people were too skillful and specialized.
That first assassin had managed to dress himself into appearing like a woman in such a perfect way that even Long Chen hadn't seen any flaws.
If they only aimed to kill him, he wouldn't feel afraid. Even if he was stabbed in his vitals, he had the primal chaos bead and could instantly heal. Unless they managed to instantly chop off his head, he could still recover. However, Long Chen didn't believe they were capable of that.
What he was worried about was that these madmen would assassinate the people by his side. Then their chances of succeeding would be extremely high.
LC then checks on Dragon Blood Legion to exhort and help them to advance quickly.
