C236 Dark Night Killing Intent



C236 Dark Night Killing Intent

3Walking in the dense forest, Chen Yu was always paying attention to his surroundings.     0

    

Although there would be relatively less interception, it was definitely not peaceful to the point where there would be no obstructions.    

    

"This way, hurry up!" Suddenly, a voice came from the wind.    

    

"Those guys from the branch sects are really troublesome. Be careful, don't get blocked!"    

    

"…"    

    

Chen Yu quietly jumped up a tree.    

    

Very quickly, a few human figures appeared in their line of sight, a total of nine people, all of them holding weapons, rushing over from the south, led by a tall and slender, resolute looking Martial Cultivator of the Seventh Layer of the Heavenly Astral Stage, this person was very vigilant, and could not help but look around.    

    

Chen Yu retracted his aura and waited for the few of them to leave. Then, he got down and continued moving forward.    

    

After walking for less than five minutes, Chen Yu suddenly stopped and slowly pulled out his Wind Stabilization Blade.    

    

The smell of blood was pungent. In the dark forest ahead, it was a mess, filled with traces of sword Qi slashes. A few dead bodies were lying on the ground, and these dead warriors were the ones Chen Yu had seen just now.    

    

From a distance, he could see that the three corpses lying on the ground had all been killed by a single sword strike. The wounds were all on the neck and throat, each fatal blow fatal.    

    

Chen Yu's eyelids couldn't help but twitch.    

    

Continuing forward, very soon, Chen Yu saw another corpse lying in a bush. This corpse's heart was pierced, Chen Yu remembered that this person's aura was not weak, and had the cultivation of the sixth level of Heavenly Astral Stage.    

    

"The disciples of a branch sect are indeed not to be underestimated!" Chen Yu leaned to the side and heard the faint sound of breathing.    

    

With a flash, the Wind Transformation Movement opened up. Chen Yu was like a light breeze without any weight, moving towards the direction of the sound of breathing.    

    

Following that, Chen Yu saw two more bodies, but they were still killed by a single slash.    

    

Looking over, there was a clearing between the trees. A man was standing with a saber on his back. There was an eye-catching sword mark on his body, and blood was dripping onto the ground. He was tall and slender, his face pale but still holding onto his long blade. His back was arched and ready to strike. He was the person who had just reached the seventh level of Heavenly Astral Stage.    

    

Other than him, there was no one else. Most likely, the others had already been killed.    

    

Amidst the uproar, a figure flashed past the man's side of the forest, causing the grass and trees to roil about.    

    

The man's gaze followed the shadow, his expression extremely alert, but he did not give chase. He gritted his teeth and cursed: "Come, you piece of trash from the branch sect, you came to kill your grandfather, do you know how to sneak attack from the shadows?"    

    

The figure disappeared in a flash, blending into the darkness of the forest as if blending completely into the darkness of the night.    

    

Chen Yu was shocked. He could see clearly from the Bloodfire Eye Technique that the figure was extremely fast and strange. It could be said to be terrifying.    

    

"Aren't your branch sect disciples the most pretentious? You b * stard, don't you even have the courage to fight face to face? " The injured man continued to shout.    

    

Another sound of rolling plants could be heard as a response. The black shadow disappeared in a flash. It was so fast that the naked eye could barely catch it.    

    

Just one person? Chen Yu's expression changed slightly as he clearly saw that the figure that was purposely passing by was the same person as the black shadow.    

    

The team of nine had been ambushed by one person until only one remained. The strength of that ambusher was truly terrifying. He was the same kind of assassin as Qin Lian.    

    

The injured man suddenly turned around, his forehead was already dripping cold sweat. As he turned around, the sword marks on his body once again started bleeding profusely.    

    

In this situation, the warriors on the seventh floor of the Heavenly Astral Stage would be exhausted to death here, following the footsteps of their companions.    

    

Chen Yu waited more than ten seconds as his thoughts turned.    

    

After a dozen or so seconds, the sound of grass being swept away rang out from behind the injured man, and he once again turned around like a frightened bird.    

    

At the same time, Chen Yu walked forward with his back arched and silently headed behind a tree.    

    

"Come out, get out here, you piece of trash from the branch sect!"    

    

Under the wounded man's shrill curses, Chen Yu's subtle sounds were covered. However, Chen Yu couldn't be sure that the attacker didn't notice.    

    

When the cursing stopped, Chen Yu also stopped getting close to the injured man.    

    

Chen Yu's plan was to wait for the attacker to attack the injured man, then he would be the oriole behind the attacker and kill the attacker in one go. Although this kind of thinking was a bit cold, Chen Yu didn't have any psychological burdens. However, the possibility of this scenario turning into reality was not high. If Chen Yu had been discovered by the attacker, he would have become the target of the attacker himself. Of course, Chen Yu would consider this point.    

    

The curses continued, but the silhouette surrounding the injured man stopped moving. It was as if it had completely disappeared.    

    

"I was indeed discovered!" Chen Yu silently grinned and became more vigilant.    

    

Bloodfire Emperor had experienced this kind of sneak attack in the dark night before, and Chen Yu himself had also done it in Divine Meteorite Mountain Range, so it could be said that he was extremely familiar with this kind of thing, and knew how dangerous it was.    

    

However, Chen Yu still had a huge advantage in this kind of environment since he possessed a sacred art like the Bloodfire Eye Technique.    

    

Looking around, Chen Yu didn't see anything out of the ordinary.    

    

"Still lurking? This is a little troublesome! " There was no movement for a long time. Chen Yu frowned.    

    

It wasn't that he hadn't thought of sneakily sneakily trying to sneak in a sneak attack, but people who specialized in sneak attacks wouldn't be able to get caught in a sneak attack.    

    

Thinking about how he was targeted by a powerful assassin with a strange movement technique, Chen Yu also felt that his head felt hurt, especially within this City Battle Trial, Chen Yu would inevitably fight with other people. If he was ambushed by an assassin in battle, then no matter how confident Chen Yu was, he wouldn't dare take the risk.    

    

"Then I'll give you a chance!" Chen Yu muttered to himself as he quickly jumped up and activated his Wind Transformation Movement.    

    

The injured man suddenly turned around and looked towards Chen Yu, while making a sound along the way of grass and wood. His expression changed drastically.    

    

Chen Yu was wearing a green shirt. He did not attract much attention in the dark night, but he was clearly different from the person who ambushed him.    

    

"Another bastard? "Come on, come and kill me, what are you two afraid of?" The injured man went crazy in despair. He let out a shrill howl and charged towards Chen Yu.    

    

Chen Yu ignored the injured man as he ran around the injured man in the forest.    

    

Suddenly, a cold light shot out from the ground three meters away from Chen Yu.    

    

Finally, he made his move!    

    

Chen Yu sneered. He didn't seem to notice the cold light at all.    

    

The cold light completely calculated Chen Yu's speed. His attack was accurate and it went straight to Chen Yu's waist. It could be said that he was going to be killed in a single strike.    

    

Chen Yu felt a sharp pain at the back of his waist. This pain was caused by his sword intent.    

    

The killing intent merged with the sword intent and practically turned into substance. From this, it could be seen that the strength of the attacker was indeed extraordinary. After all, within the memories of Bloodfire Emperor, which Chen Yu had fused with, those who could materialize their divine intent were all experts with Profound Dark Stage. Although the God's Will of this ambusher was far from the extent of materializing its God's Will, it was still a testament to its power.    

    

Under this kind of divine will, this sword was like a flying immortal from the heavens. When it neared perfection, Chen Yu felt that he was unable to dodge or block it. He could only watch in despair as the sword stabbed towards him.    

    

However, in the next moment, Chen Yu's determination was like iron, dispelling the distracting thoughts brought about by the sword intent. The vital energy and blood in his body circulated rapidly, releasing the endless undercurrents hidden in his blood.    

    

With the twist of Chen Yu's body, Chen Yu shifted horizontally in the air, just in time to avoid the stab of the sword.    

    

Under the hood, only a pair of indifferent and emotionless eyes could be seen. When Chen Yu displayed the profound mystery of Wind Transformation Movement, a hint of surprise and emotion finally flashed past those eyes that were cold to the point where they didn't seem human.    

    

Then, the attacker's stab changed with the change in Chen Yu's position. There was no delay or flaw. It was still a one-hit kill. In addition, after the cold glints turned into starlight, the sword glows pierced through the sword's edge and rapidly increased their speed. A strong and deep aura shot out, forming an extremely fierce and oppressive feeling.    

    

The strength of the sixth level of Heavenly Astral Stage!    

    

Chen Yu's expression did not change, the blood in his body was surging, the Wind Stabilization Blade used the momentum to cut down, and its speed was as fast as a gale.    

    

The surprise in the attacker's eyes disappeared and was once again replaced with a deep indifference. The thrust did not pause or hesitate at all.    

    

Chen Yu became more and more stern, but he did not stop, and did not use the Wind Stabilization Blade to block the sword.    

    

As a result, the blade flew towards the attacker's neck, and Huang Quan's sword was still thrusting towards Chen Yu. The two of them actually fought to the death with each other.    

    

Swoosh. Accompanying the sharp blade glow, a streak of fresh blood shot out. A trace of fear finally appeared in the eyes under the hood. After which, the figure within the eyes suddenly dimmed.    

    

Chen Yu's shoulder hurt and was pierced by the tip of the sword. The piece of equipment that he changed frequently was like a rag doll that couldn't be blocked at all.    

    

The two shadows instantly separated and the sword left his body. The attacker then took two steps forward and fell to the ground.    

    

After Chen Yu landed on the ground, he let out a deep breath and felt a chill down his spine.    

    

This exchange just now could be said to be extremely simple, but it was also extremely dangerous. It could even be said to be a battle between life and death.    

    

A sword-art that could kill in a single blow was truly terrifying!    

    

Chen Yu knew that the reason he was still alive, was because of the profoundness of the Wind Transformation Movement and the battle experience that Bloodfire Emperor had left for him.    

    

The sudden change in direction of the Wind Transformation Movement caused a certain degree of impact to the sword force of the attacker, causing Chen Yu to take the initiative. And Bloodfire Emperor's experience had allowed Chen Yu's slash to face such a ruthless sword technique without any hesitation. Once the opportunity was lost, the possibility of being assassinated would greatly increase!    

    

"Hmm?" A surprised cry rang out.    

    

Chen Yu turned around and saw that the injured warrior looked surprised and stopped.    

    

Withdrawing his gaze, Chen Yu took a step forward and arrived in front of the fallen attacker. He turned the attacker's body and saw the knife that passed through the attacker's neck. He couldn't help but shake his head.    

    

"Even though he knew that he would be cut by a blade, he refused to return the sword to block. Ruthless to your enemies, and even more so to yourself! " Chen Yu lamented in his heart: "In time, he will be a terrifying figure. Luckily, he was finally killed!"    

    

Chen Yu bent over and picked up the sword from the attacker's hand. After flicking his finger, he confirmed that it was an ordinary Upper Grade True Artifact. Putting it into his bag, Chen Yu grabbed the Storage Bag on the attacker and left.    

    

"I am Zhao Zijian from Xiehuang City. Thank you for saving my life, may I ask your name!" At this time, the injured man also reacted and said to Chen Yu.    

    

Chen Yu paused for a moment, then said: "Minglan City, Chen Yu!"    

    

With that, Chen Yu disappeared into the forest.
