Chapter 598: Fallen into a Trap
Liu Dong knew that since Lin Fan cared so much about Li Rou, a duel with him was inevitable.
Lin Fan spoke again, his voice cold as ice: "Speak, what exactly has happened to Li Rou?"
Waves of murderous intent burst forth from Lin Fan's body.
Liu Dong burst into laughter and said: "Li Rou is almost dead, hahaha, hahaha!"
Liu Dong continued to laugh loudly as he spoke.
His current goal was to provoke Lin Fan into a battle using reverse psychology.
It must be said, Liu Dong had indeed succeeded.
"Very well!"
At this moment, Lin Fan continued coldly: "So you want to battle me? You've succeeded..."
While speaking, Lin Fan took a step forward.
Hu Feifan quickly grabbed hold of Lin Fan and whispered, "Young Master, please don't be impulsive, we must not leave the range of Cloud West City's City Protection Array, in case..."
Lin Fan waved his hand dismissively: "It's just Liu Dong, nothing to fret about!"
While speaking, Lin Fan jumped off the city wall and landed not far from Liu Dong, speaking coldly: "You wish to battle me? Bring it on, I will use Soul Search on you later, and naturally, I will find out Li Rou's whereabouts!"
"Haha!"
Liu Dong laughed loudly, saying: "You want to use Soul Search on me? That's quite some confidence!"
While speaking, Liu Dong also began to move.
Suddenly, Liu Dong's sword movement synced with his body, and in an instant, a shadow charged towards Lin Fan, making it unclear whether it was Liu Dong himself or his sword.
"Human Sword Integration?"
Lin Fan's heart stirred slightly, but he soon regained his composure, thinking, "It's only the rudimentary stage of Human Sword Integration, nothing to worry about..."
Lin Fan remained unmoved.
The Universal System had already located a flaw in Liu Dong's sword strike.
At the same time, Lin Fan employed the Breaking Character Technique from the Combat Five-Character Technique!
He thrust his spear forward fiercely.
Liu Dong's powerful sword strike crumbled effortlessly upon meeting Lin Fan's spear, shattering to pieces...
"How... how is this possible?"
Liu Dong was utterly taken aback.
Originally, Liu Dong thought that since he ranked several tens of places higher than Lin Fan on the Dragon List, dealing with Lin Fan should be a breeze, capable of defeating him within minutes.
But now, upon their first exchange, Lin Fan had effortlessly neutralized his own attack of Human Sword Integration. Liu Dong was at a loss - how could Lin Fan be so strong?
At this moment, everyone around was equally shocked.
They had the same initial thought as Liu Dong, believing that Liu Dong could easily eliminate Lin Fan within minutes.
But unexpectedly...
The end result turned out to be a complete surprise to them.
Lin Fan planned to take advantage of the situation to attack Liu Dong and end the battle.
But...
In an instant, Lin Fan suddenly perceived a very dangerous aura locked onto himself.
No, to be precise, it was several extremely dangerous auras.
"Not good!"
A sense of alarm rose in Lin Fan's heart.
In that moment, Lin Fan realized he had been tricked.
Return to the city!
Without any hesitation, Lin Fan prepared to retreat to the city.
However, it was a pity that Lin Fan didn't have enough time to return.
Four shadowy figures suddenly appeared from the east, south, west, and north, all dressed in black with black hoods over their heads, moving as stealthily as spectres.
Assassins from the Hell Organization?
Lin Fan could tell right away that these guys were assassins from the Hell Organization.
"Damn it!"
Curses echoed directly in Lin Fan's heart.
When he was on the Nine-state Continent, Lin Fan had been the target of assassination attempts by the Hell Organization, narrowly escaping death at the hands of their killers on multiple occasions.
Later, in a fit of rage, Lin Fan had wiped out the Hell Organization branch on the Nine-state Continent.
Who would've thought, after arriving in the Holy Soul Domain, he would once again find himself being hunted by the Hell Organization?
Four assassins were rapidly approaching from four directions.
Their speed was at its limit, and their attack moves were genuine killing moves, without a single flourish...
The killing move had already formed a dazzling black light, completely locking onto Lin Fan.
Lin Fan's eyes narrowed as he stood there quietly.
The flaw-finding function of the Universal System had been completely activated, searching for a weakness in the combined attack of the four assassins.
At a certain moment, Lin Fan moved.
Swoosh...
With one step, Lin Fan's body disappeared in an extremely eerie manner.
When he reappeared, Lin Fan was dozens of yards away at a certain place.
However, at this time, there was a huge bloody hole in Lin Fan's left shoulder, with blood continuously streaming out.
It turned out that just now, part of the attack had still landed on Lin Fan, leaving him grievously injured.
Lin Fan's body swayed twice, almost unable to stand.
"Kill!"
After a moment's hesitation, the four assassins, without any delay, attacked Lin Fan again. This time, the burst of their attack was even more terrifying than before.
It was evident that this time, the four were prepared to join forces and kill Lin Fan in one fell swoop.
At the same time, the four assassins were also exceedingly confident in their hearts, believing that at this moment, Lin Fan, who had been seriously injured, stood no chance under their joint assault.
Lin Fan watched helplessly as the attack swept towards him.
Lin Fan was well aware that facing such a formidable attack, he was now powerless.
"Random Transfer Talisman!"
Without any hesitation, Lin Fan immediately used the Random Transfer Talisman.
Whoosh!
The next moment, Lin Fan's body disappeared.
And the attacks of the four assassins finally hit the spot where Lin Fan had been standing, but alas, they had failed to wound him.
"Damn it!"
The hearts of the four assassins were filled with intense anger. They had thought they could easily kill Lin Fan, but in the end, Lin Fan had easily escaped?
This infuriated them deeply.
"Chase!"
The next moment, the four simultaneously let out a roar of fury.
Then, they quickly chased in one direction.
They had fully determined in their hearts that they must pursue Lin Fan with all their might and seize this opportunity to completely kill him.
Because just now, they had left a tracking mark on Lin Fan, and with it, they could easily find him.
At a certain place, Lin Fan suddenly appeared there.
"Puh!"
After appearing, Lin Fan immediately spat out a mouthful of blood, his body wavering, looking like he could collapse at any moment.
"Damn it!"
Lin Fan cursed angrily in his heart once again.
Lin Fan knew that he had been careless this time.
It was because he had underestimated Liu Dong that he ultimately fell into the ambush of the assassins.
