"Help me!" the lone wolf assassin who had stepped into the bear trap cried out. "My leg..."
The animal trap, made entirely of steel, was incredibly hard, causing the assassin to tremble in pain.
The other two assassins who had pursued him were briefly torn: should they rescue their companion, or continue the chase for Lin Mo?
Finally, the tall, thin assassin announced, "I'll help him. You go after Lin Mo! Remember, just hold him off; don't take any unnecessary risks!"
The other assassin nodded and, wielding the East Pangot, chased after them.
"One-on-one? Do you think I'm afraid of you?" Lin Cheng's lips twitched slightly, then he drew the 'Dragon Slayer' from his back and strode forward.
As the sword slashed down, the lone wolf assassin quickly dodged to the side.
With a loud "boom," the Dragon Slayer struck the fruit tree behind the Lone Wolf Assassin, its force so great that it split the entire tree in two.
The lone wolf assassin's eyes instantly shifted from excitement to astonishment.
"You...how do you possess such strength?"
Lin Mo did not respond, but instead gripped the hilt of his sword and strode forward again.
"Watch out!" the lone wolf assassin who had stepped into the bear trap warned.
But his voice was drowned out by the thunder and lightning.
Inside the room, each of the lone wolf assassins was roaring and howling, while Xiang Yu, like a silent beast, was venting his killing intent at will!
Everything happened so fast.
Lin Mo's opponent was momentarily stunned, but was clearly too slow.
The dragon-slaying sword struck his head again, and instinctively, he raised his kunai to block.
However, Lin Mo's sword suddenly changed direction and turned into a horizontal slash.
The lone wolf assassin was startled and quickly followed suit.
At this moment, Lin Mo gripped his sword with both hands and swung it forcefully at the assassin's chest, instantly sending him flying.
The assassin struggled to his feet, but suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood and collapsed unconscious on the muddy ground.
"die!"
Lin Mo strode forward, and just as he raised his sword to deliver a fatal blow, a hoarse voice warned him: "Stop!"
Immediately afterwards, a large hand forcefully twisted him away from the assassin.
It turns out that at the crucial moment, the lone wolf assassin abandoned his teammate who was injured by the animal trap and came to the rescue in time.
Lin Mo turned around in silent anger and attacked with all his might, but the latter parried the attack and deflected it.
In the blink of an eye, Lin Mo swiftly cleaved the Dragon Slayer sword in front of the Lone Wolf Assassin.
The weapon in the latter's hand bounced off the ground reflexively, and the force of the impact almost knocked it away from the Lone Wolf assassin's hand.
The lone wolf assassin staggered backward.
He gripped the Dongpango samurai sword with both hands and launched a swift counterattack, only to have it casually swept away by Lin Mo.
The two of them went back and forth, becoming one in the torrential rain.
The lone wolf assassin used his speed and agility to counter Lin Mo's ferocious strength.
In an instant, the Regent of Great Xia's sword was everywhere, moving left and right like a rain of arrows, the sword moving with his will, elegant and free.
The lone wolf assassin felt his arm gradually go numb.
In that instant, the assassin's movement revealed an opening.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Lin Mo thrust out his sword and then flicked it with his other hand.
The lone wolf stepped aside, seemingly unaffected by the attack, but then a series of bright, vivid crimson tears welled up in his throat, like a necklace of rubies. Finally, blood gushed out, and the lone wolf assassin fell to the ground.
He noticed that only the tip of the dragon-slaying blade was stained, in the last half inch.
The last glimmer of light was fading from his eyes. The lone wolf assassin raised and lowered his finger, using his last strength to say, "...Such a sharp sword."
The lone wolf assassin, lying on the ground, panicked.
Driven by his survival instinct, he kicked the ground haphazardly, splashing up a puddle of mud.
"Boom!"
Lightning flashed across the sky, leaving everyone on the ground in shadow.
Lin Mo slowly moved forward, smiling as he wielded the Dragon Slayer Sword.
"No...no!"
At this moment, Lin Mo was like the Grim Reaper, making the assassin tremble with fear.
Suddenly, the desire to live unleashed the assassin's boundless potential.
He exerted a sudden effort and finally stood up.
However, just as he was about to turn and run away, he bumped into Xiang Yu, who came out of the room.
It turned out that Xiang Yu had already killed all the lone wolf assassins in the house, including the one who had stepped on the animal trap.
The assassin fell to the ground again, covered in mud.
Xiang Yu's eyes turned cold. He raised his Chu halberd and shouted, "Die!"
"Wait, leave one alive!" Lin Cheng called out to stop them.
Upon hearing Lin Mo's order, Xiang Yu withdrew his Chu halberd and kicked the assassin.
"boom!"
The assassin was kicked several meters away, finally coming to a stop after crashing into a broken log.
"Take him to the room!" Lin Mo sheathed his sword. "Damn, this rain is really heavy!"
Inside the room, Dongpan Gesheng's bonfire was still burning, but it couldn't completely dispel Lin Mo's chill.
Lin Mo took off his blood-stained outer garment and placed it by the fire to dry.
Before long, Xiang Yu carried in the only surviving lone wolf assassin as if he were a chick.
He threw the assassin heavily to the ground, then turned and stood guard outside the door to prevent other assassins from lying in ambush around him.
"I just heard you speak the Great Xia language!" Lin Mo asked, warming his hands over the fire. "So, what happened to your Lone Wolf organization?"
"I will never betray Lone Wolf!" the assassin said through gritted teeth, his voice filled with rage.
"Another one who's not afraid of death!" Lin Mo chuckled. "Have you ever heard of honey torture?"
The assassin looked up, and judging from his expression, he clearly hadn't heard of it.
Honey torture? Does that mean drinking honey until you die?
