The male and female members of the black-haired woman's gang stopped in front of the cabin. Chen Jing secretly leaned against the wall at the corner and spied on them.

They knocked on the door first, and Chen Jing noticed it and immediately looked away, hiding around the corner.

Because the people inside might notice him once the cabin door is open, and Chen Jing hasn't used invisibility yet, he can't show himself.

He listened to their conversation. The person who opened the door seemed to be an old man with a hoarse and aged voice.

"Is he a cultivator?"

"Yes," the woman addressed as Sister Zhang replied.

Taking advantage of this moment, Chen Jing activated his invisibility and peeked out from around the corner.

He saw the man and woman being escorted, the girl being escorted, and an old man with graying temples and withered hands like eagle claws.

"Now is not the time to make a move," Chen Jing thought.

His plan was to break into the prison, release the captured assassins, and then use the chaos created by the assassins to release the other captured people as well, so that he could take Wan Tong away.

It wasn't that he intentionally wanted to make a scene, but rather that his abilities weren't sufficient to allow him to quietly take someone away. If Chen Jing wanted to leave with someone, he would have to face guards.

Chen Jing gripped the sword tightly, pulled it back again, and shut off the invisible spiritual energy supply.

He planned to wait until the escorts left before launching his attack; those two escorts might also be cultivators or individuals with extraordinary abilities.

A simple, crazy adventure plan gradually took shape in his mind.

Chen Jing waited silently, listening intently.

A moment later.

The two escorts turned back and left the corridor, heading towards Chen Jing's hiding place.

"At most, I can kill one person first by relying on my invisibility, but if I can't deal with the other one in a short time and he has to call for help, there's almost nothing I can do."

"but……"

Chen Jing entered a state of invisibility, like breathing in deep water, waiting for the two to come over.

First it was the woman named Sister Zhang, then it was the man named Xiao Fan.

Chen Jing silently pondered for a moment, then thought it over again.

Then, as Xiao Fan passed by him, Chen Jing leaped forward, thrusting his sword into Xiao Fan's back, piercing his chest, and with a slash, blood spurted out.

laugh!

The blade tore open his entire lung, rendering him unable to scream; he could only utter hoarse sounds.

Chen Jing originally planned to attack the defensive midfield, which would have a greater chance of inflicting a fatal wound, but considering that he wanted to silence the opponent, he ultimately chose a higher position.

Xiao Fan did not die immediately. His hand instinctively reached for the weapon at his waist, but Chen Jing forcibly slapped it away with his other hand.

At the same time, Chen Jing's sword was churning inside his body, determined to make him unable to fight due to the pain.

Chen Jing still chose to launch a surprise attack! After all, he wasn't sure if the two would still be on the ship to guard it. If so, rather than facing two prepared superhumans during the escape, it would be better to take advantage of the surprise attack and kill them first.

It was a cold and crazy choice, but Chen Jing still made it.

As if sensing something, "Sister Zhang" turned around abruptly, and Chen Jing saw her pupils shrink instantly.

Sister Zhang wasn't carrying any weapons, but the totem tattoos on her bare body made Chen Jing instinctively uneasy, and he wanted to kill her immediately.

It would take too long to pull the sword out of one's body.

That amount of time was more than enough for Sister Zhang to create distance, call for backup, or even launch an attack.

Chen Jing didn't hesitate; he had already considered the possible solutions in his previous thought process.

He held up the nearly dead young man, Xiao Fan, and pushed him against Sister Zhang, using him as a huge human shield and weapon.

The totems on Sister Zhang's body swirled. She instinctively used her strange ability; a red light erupted from her arm, hurtling towards Chen Jing. She didn't choose to shout immediately; if she did, she might not have enough time to defend against Chen Jing's attack!

Even if you manage to call for help, it's all meaningless if you get killed.

The moment Chen Jing attacked Xiao Fan with his weapon, his "invisibility" naturally dissipated and could not be maintained. It would take some time to restart it.

Chen Jing pushed Xiao Fan in front of Sister Zhang, lowered his body, and drew the armor-piercing rapier that Xiao Fan was wearing at his waist.

This is a deception, a common tactic among swordsmen: using a shield to block the opponent's view, drawing their attention to the shield and thus preventing them from noticing the sword, allowing for a counterattack. This is a technique taught by "experts."

A perfect deception.

As Chen Jing circled around from the flank, Zhang Jie's red light struck Xiao Fan at the same time Chen Jing also drew his sword.

The slender sword pierced through Sister Zhang, who had just turned around, and when it was pulled out, blood splattered everywhere.

Like a blooming flower.

die!

When Sister Zhang also collapsed, Chen Jing felt a sense of déjà vu.

"I actually... I actually killed two extraordinary individuals so easily?"

These are two people with extraordinary abilities! Chen Jing's hunting group only has three people with extraordinary abilities!

But he didn't have time to savor those feelings; he had to deal with the battlefield as quickly as possible. He swiftly drew his sword and finished them off with blows, confirming their deaths.

Chen Jing's outer robe was stained crimson with blood.

Chen Jing put away his weapon and listened carefully, but did not hear anyone coming.

The attack happened so fast that Sister Zhang and Xiao Fan didn't have time to call for help, and the enemy guards didn't even notice.

Chen Jing did not wipe away the bloodstains. He put away his weapon and approached the cell they had entered earlier.

Before leaving, he noticed Xiao Fan's corpse; large chunks of flesh had been torn away from the spot where the red light had struck.
