Chapter 1148: Impossible to Succeed
Liu Qingfeng and the others had never seen this person before. There was definitely no such expert among the various forces in Huifeng Ridge. Otherwise, how could they have been bullied so miserably?
However, this person had indeed jumped out from their group. If anything happened to Ling Chuxi, no one would believe them. They might as well die along with her. Thinking back to Huangfu Qingjue’s terrifying strike, their hearts sank greatly. They were going to be dead for sure.
But before the worst could happen, a clear ring echoed in the air.
The tip of the assassin’s sword had already pierced into Ling Chuxi’s chest, but he was unable to advance any further.
Only then did everyone notice that Ling Chuxi’s left hand had unknowingly held a dagger, defending her chest against his sword. This dagger was exquisitely shaped and its smooth curve could only be described as perfect. It was like the legendary tooth of the Azure Dragon, shining brightly and of very high quality. Despite the fierce collision between both weapons, the dagger was not damaged at all. Instead, a part of the tip of the opponent’s sword that was infused with powerful True Qi had been broken.
No one saw when Ling Chuxi had made her move. It was as if the dagger had been there the whole time, waiting for the opponent to stab it.
This was the spiritual weapon that Ling Chuxi had personally forged: Dragon Tooth Dagger. With the spiritual weapon connected to her mind, the speed, strength, and accuracy of her attack this time surprised even Ling Chuxi herself. It felt as if the Dragon Tooth Dagger had become a part of her body, an extension of her arm controlled entirely by her will.
A hint of shock finally appeared in the assassin’s eyes. He twisted his wrist and was about to attack again.
However, he had no chance. The moment his finger moved, he realized that he could not muster any strength. He lowered his head and saw that a sword had pierced through his heart.
What a quick attack. It was so fast that he did not feel any pain at all.
He turned around and saw Huangfu Qingjue’s handsome and indifferent face. Only then did he realize that even without Ling Chuxi’s Dragon Tooth Dagger, he would not have been able to hurt her at all. The person who stabbed him did not even use his full strength either. Otherwise, he would have been turned into ashes long ago.
“Who are you?” asked Ling Chuxi doubtfully. She gently moved the dagger away, and the man’s hand went soft. The sword fell from his hand and broke into several pieces with a few crisp clinks.
The man didn’t answer but a strange expression suddenly appeared on his face. His lips moved slightly as if he was chanting something, and the surrounding Spiritual Qi also jumped uneasily.
“Be careful!” Su Yizhi shouted in a deep voice.
Just as he did, the assassin’s face suddenly turned dull, as if it was devoid of life’s radiance. It glowed slightly like the last ray of light before death before an intense stream of True Qi suddenly surged out from his body.
“He’s self-destructing!” No one had expected that he would be so decisive and daring to self-destruct without even saying a word. It seemed that he knew that it was too late for him to escape and that his only option was to circulate his True Qi to protect his entire body.
Boom! Amidst the muffled sound, a brilliant light even brighter than the afternoon sun erupted from the person’s body, so dazzling that people could not open their eyes.
However, they only heard the violent explosion. They did not feel the shaking of the ground. There was not even a trace of fluctuation in the air current.
With that person’s strength, the power of the self-destruct was definitely not inferior to the full-force attack of a realm of Heaven Essence expert. But was such an act from the assassin possible? Although there were doubts in their hearts, no one dared to be careless. They circulated their True Qi to protect their bodies from the impact.
