Snake Bro wore a sickly smile, his eyes flashing with ferocious and savage killing intent.
He was naturally suspicious.
Even things that everyone else believes, Snake Brother only believes about 30% of.
Even information that others are 100% certain about is only 50% certain to Snake Brother.
That's why he tested the waters just now.
Now that the test is over, Snake Brother is confident that Xia Che is definitely not accompanied by that so-called "top assassin" bodyguard!
This made Snake Brother relax his guard a little.
How dare you act tough in front of them without bodyguards?
That brat...
Is it a display of extraordinary courage, or simply an audacity of ignorance?
"Is that so? Since you're so sure, then go ahead and do it. Let's see who's going to die?"
Xia Che patted the dust off his palms, his expression calm.
It seemed that Snake Brother's words could not affect his state of mind in the slightest.
But actually...
Xia Che's heart had already sunk to the bottom.
Xia Che knew perfectly well that his tricks couldn't fool these two.
But he still held onto a sliver of hope, after all, this was the only chance he had to escape.
When a rabbit falls into a hunter's trap, it will struggle a bit. Even if it is targeted by an eagle, the rabbit will not surrender. Instead, it will lie on the ground and use all the strength of its two hind legs to fight the eagle to the death.
—They might just kick you to death?
"Stubborn to the end..."
Snake Brother toyed with the dagger in his hand, and with a rough swing, the blade seemed capable of cleaving the heavens and earth. The dagger danced between his fingertips, creating a beautiful flourish.
"Alright, then so be it!"
Snake Bro grinned menacingly. This man, with his delicate features and ordinary aura, who looked like any other passerby, now wore a ferocious smile on his young face.
If he didn't hesitate any longer and was certain that it was the best time to strike, he would reap the opponent's life with lightning speed.
Giving your prey any chance to catch its breath is disrespectful to your profession.
At the same time, the boxing champion raised his vigilance to the highest level, preparing for any potential threats that could erupt at any moment.
After all, of the two, only the boxing champion truly believed Xia Che's nonsense; he took it more seriously than anyone else present.
"...Such speed, how could I not even see it?"
Xia Che clicked his tongue, cursing Su Miaorou in his heart.
That wretched, damned woman!
They insist on this whole mindset matching thing...
Now that she's sealed off her meridians, she's at peace, but what about me?
I'm really going to break up here today!
In the blink of an eye, Snake Brother had already pounced on Xia Che, the dagger in his hand pointing straight at Xia Che's throat, and without hesitation, he stabbed him!
"Xia Che!"
Yu Shiyue's beautiful eyes widened, and in her haste, she could only manage to utter this one sentence.
The situation seemed to have reached a point where there was no room for maneuver.
Snake Brother has already decided to kill!
This top assassin is a true master in the art of killing.
Snake knows exactly which part of the human body is most vulnerable, and from which point to strike to instantly kill the opponent without leaving them any chance to breathe.
Although the knife in his hand had not yet arrived, the cold light shimmering on the blade seemed to solidify at this moment, making goosebumps rise on Xia Che's neck.
already……
There's no chance anymore!
"Aren't you going to make a move?!"
Xia Che's eyes narrowed, and he shouted loudly, using all the strength he had just recovered to turn around and pounce backward.
"Still pretending? Your acting is so bad it's laughable!"
Snake Bro grinned maliciously; the prey's struggles only fueled his twisted bloodlust.
At this moment, Xia Che had become a lamb to the slaughter in his eyes. He liked the look of despair in the eyes of his prey who was being watched so closely.
But this little blond guy is strange.
Even as death approached, he still pretended; his eyes showed no sign of panic or fear.
This made Snake Brother slightly puzzled.
He had killed so many people and knew that even the most composed person would not remain calm when about to be killed.
Survival is a human instinct, something ingrained in our genes.
It's something you're born with.
No one is truly unafraid of death. Even if one's heart is fearless, one's instincts will betray them in that instant.
Why doesn't Xia Che have this survival instinct?
This question made Snake Brother's brows furrow slightly.
An absurd thought gradually rose in my mind.
unless……
Xia Che really has something to rely on.
"You're going to die."
Xia Che dodged Snake Brother's pursuit in a disheveled state, but a mocking smile remained on his lips.
Even though he was in a very bad situation, he strangely displayed a composure that Snake Brother couldn't understand.
Strange……
This blond-haired guy exudes something strange about him.
"How could that be? Stop trying to be mysterious. You have no reinforcements, no bodyguards! Nobody can save you!"
Snake Brother roared, but his suspicions did not affect the speed of his attack.
Even though Xia Che dodged his first attack, it didn't affect anything.
His speed was not affected at all; on the contrary, it became faster and faster.
Xia Che will definitely not be able to dodge the next strike!
Snake Brother swung his knife down, faster than before. Xia Che only had enough strength to dodge once. Even though he could see the blade getting closer and closer, he was so exhausted that he didn't even have the strength to lift a finger.
His vision blurred, and waves of dizziness washed over him, making it hard for Xia Che to bear.
This is a sign that your physical strength has reached its limit.
Xia Che has no means left to resist.
*Pfft*
Snake Brother slashed Xia Che's clothes across his chest with a knife. At the most critical moment, Xia Che finally managed to move his body, which had reached its limit, and take a step back.
This step ripped the clothes on his chest to shreds, leaving a faint red line on Xia Che's chest.
That was close!
Xia Che felt a wave of fear wash over him.
If he had been even a fraction of a second later, the consequences of that stab would have been far more than just his clothes being torn to shreds.
The red line on the chest will become a deep, bone-revealing ravine, completely tearing the upper body apart!
"Come on, didn't you say I was going to die? How come I'm still alive? Where's your trump card?"
Snake Brother spread his arms wide and laughed wildly, looking up at the sky.
His laughter was clear and crisp, but it was morbid.
Snake Bro really enjoys the feeling of shattering other people's illusions.
Destroying the last hope of the other party is a pleasure second only to killing.
"Xia Che, your acting skills are indeed good, but it's a pity..."
Snake licked the blade of the dagger, where traces of blood remained, still visible on the faint red line left by the cut on Xia Che's chest.
The smell of human blood...
How enchanting!
