Chapter 139 The Hunt

"Only now do you realize you're afraid? What an idiot!"

"Everyone says that Xiao Shilang of the Xiao Prince's Mansion has become wise, but now it seems that it's just a joke."

"Knowing full well that we won't let you off easily, you risked your life for a mere soldier... no, you should say you went to your death, hahaha!"

The other men in black also burst into loud laughter.

These laughs and taunts did not anger Xiao Yu; instead, they gave him a cold, cruel smile.

He raised his spear, stared at the man in black in front of him, and sneered, "Compared to the men Bai Tianhao sent, you assassins are the real fools."

"What did you say?"

The man in black, with a hoarse voice, frowned, then sneered, "You don't need to pretend anymore. You can't hold out until Jin Mulan comes to save you, because we will kill you soon."

After speaking, he exchanged glances with the other men in black, preparing to make his move.

“I did not delay.”

Carrying the Dragon Gallant Spear, Xiao Yu walked step by step toward the hoarse-voiced man in black, coldly saying, "Villains die from talking too much. You told me that a Grandmaster held Jin Mulan back... which means that the Grandmaster didn't dare to kill Jin Mulan. You also told me that you were sent by Prince Rong."

Upon hearing this, the men in black fell silent.

They didn't expect that Xiao Yu could deduce all this from just one short sentence.

“Prince Rong has been pursuing Jin Mulan, so you dare not touch her.”

Xiao Yu continued walking forward. With each step he took, the man in black would subconsciously take a step back, though he didn't know why he was retreating.

"All I need is for Jin Mulan to be alright, that's enough!"

Xiao Yu said coldly.

If Jin Mulan is in danger, Xiao Yu will abandon his revenge and immediately go to her aid... After all, no matter how powerful Jin Mulan is, she is no match for a Grandmaster.

At the same time, he lightly touched the ground with his toes and quickly rushed towards the hoarse-voiced man in black.

"Such speed!"

The man in black's expression changed. It was too late to dodge, so he could only grit his teeth and swing his knife to block.

However, compared to the Dragon's Gall Spear, his knife was simply no match.

An inch longer, an inch stronger.

The moment the man in black's longsword touched the Dragon Gallant Spear, the powerful aura caused the blade to vibrate and hum. In the next instant, the spear pierced through the man in black's shoulder.

"Such a powerful aura, you...you..."

The man in black's expression changed drastically. He was also a genuine third-grade grandmaster, and even if he was careless, he couldn't possibly fail to withstand a single move from the opponent.

Unless the other party is a first-grade grandmaster, or even a great grandmaster.

"Impossible! You can't be a Grandmaster..."

The man in black endured the pain, his voice becoming even hoarse, and roared in an extremely shrill voice, "Kill him quickly! Don't underestimate him; he should be a first-grade grandmaster."

As he spoke, he suddenly grabbed the Dragon Gall Spear that had pierced his shoulder, trying to use it to restrict Xiao Yu's movements.

The other six men in black realized they had underestimated Xiao Yu after seeing him draw his gun, especially after hearing their companion's screams.

They unleashed their strongest auras, and while their companions had seized Xiao Yu's weapons, they all launched their most powerful killing moves at Xiao Yu.

"Who said I'm a first-grade grandmaster?"

Xiao Yu sneered and flicked his wrist, causing the Dragon Gall Spear to tremble violently.

"Ahhh!"

The man in black, whose shoulder had been pierced, let out a piercing scream of pain. Blood streamed down his left shoulder, and he was in so much pain that he no longer had the strength to hold the spear.

Xiao Yu drew his Dragon Gall Spear and swept it across the room.

A cold glint swept across, forcing all the men in black who rushed forward to retreat.

"His weapon is too long, and he moves too fast; there's no way to get close..."

A man in black gritted his teeth and said, his eyes fixed on Xiao Yu, adding reluctantly, "We were careless."

"No matter what, we must kill this guy. He's only relying on his weapon."

Another man in black spoke up.

"That's right, no matter how strong he is, he can't possibly be a match for the seven of us. He was just underestimating us!"

"Spread out and attack from different angles!"

"Three people will hold the line, and three people will attack..."

The men in black quickly devised a plan, excluding the man in black whose shoulder had been pierced and whose voice was hoarse.

"puff!!"

Just as they were discussing countermeasures, Xiao Yu made another move.

They didn't expect Xiao Yu to take the initiative, and even if they had noticed, they couldn't have stopped him at all.

Wow, that's fast!

This was the first thought in the minds of the men in black.

Their second thought was anger; they watched as Xiao Yu pierced their companion's legs with the Dragon Gall Spear...

Xiao Yu only thrust out once, but it simultaneously pierced through both of the black-clad man's calves.

"Ahh!"

The man in black, his voice hoarse, let out another shrill roar.

His legs could no longer support his body, and he collapsed to the ground...

"Such fast marksmanship."

The other men in black felt a chill run down their spines when they saw this. Was this some kind of Grandmaster of the First Rank?!

It should be noted that none of them were pushovers; all seven men in black were Grandmasters, the strongest being a First-Rank Grandmaster and the weakest a Fourth-Rank Grandmaster.

Even the strongest among them couldn't see clearly how Xiao Yu simultaneously pierced both of his companion's legs.

"It wasn't one shot, it was two shots, but because it was so fast, we only saw one shot!"
