Chapter 1126: The Four Kings of Assassins
Mishaps often come together.
Chu Fengmian already faced extreme danger with the Blood Snake Emperor, but now two assassins from the Hidden Kill Society unexpectedly intervene.
The Lei and Huo families certainly hold Chu Fengmian in high regard, actually employing two quasi-emperors from the Hidden Kill Society to kill him—it must cost a fortune to mobilize two quasi-emperors.
Chu Fengmian's situation is now even more perilous than before; a single mistake could lead to utter ruin.
"Two Martial Artists, why have you come to the Blood Snake Clan's territory?"
The Blood Snake Emperor looked coldly at the two quasi-emperors from the Hidden Kill Society and spoke.
The assassins from the Hidden Kill Society are not demon gods, but human Martial Artists. In the realm of assassination, humans have ventured further than demon gods.
"This is the territory of the Blood Snake Clan; you should leave quickly. Trespassing is not forgiven."
"The territory of the Blood Snake Clan—can a mere Blood Snake Emperor be a match for us, the two kings of assassins from the Hidden Kill Society?"
One of them looked at the Blood Snake Emperor and spoke disdainfully.
"Wang Sha, no need to waste words with this Blood Snake Emperor. Let's kill him directly; the bloodstone inside him can sell for a good price."
"Alright, Liang Sha, you take care of that kid, and I'll handle the Blood Snake Emperor!"
The two assassin kings of the Hidden Kill Society confirmed their targets. They intended not only to kill Chu Fengmian but also the Blood Snake Emperor, to eradicate them completely.
"Wang Sha, Liang Sha, are these two the Wang and Liang among the four kings of assassins from the Hidden Kill Society?"
Upon hearing their conversation, Chu Fengmian instantly realized who they were in his mind.
It is said that there are four assassin kings in the Hidden Kill Society, known as Chimei Wang Liang, and these two are the Wang Liang.
The Lei and Huo families really spared no expense; who knows how much wealth was spent to have these two assassin kings act simultaneously to kill Chu Fengmian.
"Fortunately, these two assassin kings are not here to help the Blood Snake Emperor against me; otherwise, I would be doomed. Now, there might still be a chance to escape."
Chu Fengmian has survived countless battles between life and death. In moments of danger, Chu Fengmian can find a way to escape. As long as there is a ray of hope, he can seize it and survive.
The appearance of these two assassin kings, Wang Liang, brings greater danger to Chu Fengmian but also more chaos, which gives Chu Fengmian an opportunity.
"Damn, a mere Martial Artist dares to kill me? I shall devour you alive!"
Hearing Wang Sha's words, the Blood Snake Emperor grew furious. Earlier, Chu Fengmian's claim to take his bloodstone had already enraged him, and now another person speaks, increasing his anger.
The massive body of the Blood Snake Emperor charged madly towards Wang Sha, striking out powerfully.
Wang Sha was not to be outdone. In an instant, a short dagger appeared in his hand, and with a wave, a river emerged before him.
In this river, each stream is a supreme killing move, composed of countless assassinations forming a river of killing techniques.
Such power can only manifest when the Dark Assassination Technique approaches perfection, and the river of killing techniques rushed directly at the Blood Snake Emperor.
"Damn! Devour!"
The Blood Snake Emperor sensed danger and instantly withdrew all his Spiritual Power, forming a vortex that manifested before him, resisting the river of killing techniques. In that moment, the pressure on Chu Fengmian disappeared abruptly.
Even the Blood Snake Emperor cannot focus on two things at once. In facing a quasi-emperor, he must exert his full strength.
"Go quickly!"
The moment the pressure on Chu Fengmian disappeared, he didn't hesitate and immediately activated Tunneling Light, planning to leave.
"Not good!"
Yet, as the Tunneling Light surged, Chu Fengmian instinctively sensed unease. He quickly changed direction, narrowly avoiding a blood-red beam of light that suddenly struck his previous position.
If Chu Fengmian hadn't stopped and changed direction, that blood-red beam would have killed him.
Such a kill isn't about physical destruction—the utmost in the Dark Assassination Technique is a one-hit kill; even the strongest life force cannot recover if the body is obliterated instantly.
If Chu Fengmian hadn't been calm, without impulsiveness from his experience in numerous life-and-death struggles, he would have died just now.
"Oh? You actually dodged that blow? It seems you are indeed more remarkable than rumored; never before has anyone below a quasi-emperor evaded my strike."
A figure appeared slowly at the moment when the blood-red dagger appeared, and it was Liang Sha, the assassin king from the Hidden Kill Society.
Liang Sha, a small and thin old man, eyed Chu Fengmian with a half-smile, his gaze flickering with killing intent. His entire presence felt like a fierce tiger.
He's fixedly staring at his prey, ready to strike and decapitate Chu Fengmian without hesitation at the slightest flaw, killing him.
"What a pity, what a pity; such a brilliant figure will eventually die by my hand. I've heard you're from the Dragon Clan? What of it? Our Hidden Kill Society murders without regard for identity, and no one will avenge you, boy. Remember not to offend those you shouldn't in your next life!"
Liang Sha glanced at Chu Fengmian's realm, indeed matching the intelligence—only at the Destiny Realm—and was completely indifferent.
Liang Sha stepped forward and suddenly attacked, also wielding a short dagger. Martial Artists using the Dark Assassination Technique favor short daggers for their concealability and quick draw.
As the dagger was drawn, killing intent filled the air, manifesting into blade edges.
In an instant, before Chu Fengmian, tens of thousands of blade edges gathered, forming a world of blades.
This technique was far more mysterious than any sword technique Chu Fengmian had seen, even surpassing the legendary talent of Gongsun Tianjue.
"Blood Killing Nine Forms!"
This sword technique, unfamiliar to Chu Fengmian, evidently belongs to the ancient sword techniques of the demon continent—is exceptionally mysterious.
"First, find a flaw, then activate the Heavenly Dragon Transformation to escape! These two assassin kings can be dealt with later!"
Chu Fengmian made an instant decision in his mind.
"Teng Snake Power, Thousand Sword Residue!"
The Teng Snake Power surged up, infused into the Spirit Swords in Chu Fengmian's hands, and in that instant, the force erupted with tens of thousands of sword shadows soaring skyward.
