"Ninth-rank Swordsman, actually ninth-rank..." Mu Ziqing never dreamed that this "brainless dandy" was not just a seventh-rank Swordsman, but a ninth-rank. He stared at the scene in amazement, his energy and spirit relaxed, and he fainted.
The assassin obviously didn't expect that the seventh-level swordsman who was knocked to the ground by his casual slap just now would suddenly become a ninth-level swordsman, and his actual combat power was even not weaker than the tenth-level swordsman who had just been promoted. He was also shocked.
If Mu Hanyan showed no ability to resist at all, he might still be a little alert, but Mu Hanyan was clearly attacking with the strength of a seventh-level swordsman. It seemed that she was trying her best and even spitting blood. This naturally gave him an illusion that this person was nothing special, so he completely relaxed his vigilance.
The assassin had already turned around in a hurry, and under the cover of the frosty and snowy sword technique, his arm stiffened slightly, and the sword's momentum slowed down a bit.
When masters fight, it’s a matter of life and death, and just this one point is enough to decide one’s life or death.
"Chi" Mu Hanyan's sword pierced into his heart. It was only a fraction away from piercing his heart meridian and killing him.
"Who are you?" Mu Hanyan asked coldly.
No one likes to live in the shadows forever, and Mu Hanyan doesn't want to either. But now, she doesn't even know who the enemy hiding behind her is, so how can she live in peace?
"You won't know." The assassin looked at her and said calmly, with a strange smile on his face.
"Be careful!" Mu Hanyan became alert, and suddenly drew out the Hanxiao Sword. She stretched out her arm, grabbed Yan Yuchu and quickly retreated.
With a loud "bang", the assassin's whole body exploded, and a strong airflow rushed out, blowing the exploded flesh and blood into powder.
Mu Hanyan retreated more than twenty steps before stopping, her clothes still rustling in the airflow.
"What a cruel method." Mu Hanyan took a deep breath.
Self-destruction with sword energy is a fatal technique only masters of the Sword Master realm can perform, and it is also the last resort for mutual destruction when there is no other way out. However, cultivating to the Sword Master realm is extremely difficult, so the vast majority of sword masters in the world, even if they know they cannot defeat their opponents, would rather fight to the death and fight for the last chance, and would never choose self-destruction.
If you fight hard, there is always a chance to survive. Once you use this trick, your retreat will be completely cut off.
No one knows the origin of this assassin. Not only is he ruthless and decisive in his attacks, he is also cruel and ruthless to himself.
Mu Hanyan couldn't help but think of the man who tried to assassinate her last time. After the attempt failed, that man turned into nothingness under the terrifying power of Xing Huan Qianji. She used to blame this guy for being too ruthless and leaving no one alive. Now, if he really left anyone alive, she didn't know what kind of tricks he would use to kill both of them. With her strength as a first-level swordsman at that time, she would definitely die. She should be thanking Xing Huan Qianji.
The cold wind blew, taking away the faint smell of blood in the air. Mu Hanyan's mood also calmed down, and she looked at Yan Yuchu beside her.
"Who is this person? Who is this guy?" Yan Yuchu was also deeply shocked by the other party's cruelty, and muttered to himself in confusion.
After all, his life was saved by Mu Hanyan, so he didn't have any hostility towards her at this time.
"It doesn't matter who he is. What matters is that he is more than one person." Mu Hanyan said in a deep voice.
"What do you mean?" Yan Yuchu turned around suddenly and looked at Mu Hanyan.
