A blur flashed by, and a long blade, accompanied by a whooshing sound, pierced straight towards Xiao Wujie's neck, so fast that its trajectory was almost invisible.
Just as the long sword was about to pierce Xiao Wujie, only an inch away from his neck, it seemed to encounter an invisible barrier and could not advance any further.
The man in the kimono was extremely cautious. If his attack failed, he immediately tried to retreat, turning his head away and closing his eyes to avoid meeting Xiao Wujie's strangely gleaming eyes.
Suddenly, a cold, indifferent voice that sent chills down his spine and made his whole body tense explode in his ears.
"Did you think closing your eyes would solve everything?"
He subconsciously opened his eyes, and the sight that came into view made his pupils shrink sharply.
He was still in the harbor, but all the noise and chaos had mysteriously disappeared.
He stood alone in the eerily calm harbor, facing the boundless silence, at a loss for what to do.
"You're also an assassin from SL?"
A calm, indifferent voice suddenly rang out from behind him.
He turned around instantly and found a tall, slender figure standing not far away.

"so……"
He didn't finish speaking, but instead raised the long sword in his hand and assumed a charging stance.
"Your courage is commendable, but there's an old Chinese saying: 'A wise man submits to circumstances.'"
"I suggest you point the knife at yourself and shout that you are loyal to His Majesty the Emperor."
After all, he had never seen it with his own eyes before, and he really wanted to see it, so that he wouldn't have to do it himself.
The man named Kazama Ryunosuke ignored the teasing of the person in front of him, put on his wooden clogs, and suddenly leaped up, slashing down with his long sword.
...
Xiao Wujie slowly opened his eyes, and the next second, two streams of bloody tears flowed from his eyes.
A man dressed in a kimono, with a long sword piercing his chest, knelt before him.
He raised his bloodshot eyes and smiled gently at Chu Feihong, Gu Hengsheng, and Moreno, who were almost all alone beside him...
