Chapter 1113 - 1116: Underestimated (Double-Length)
Chapter 1113: Chapter 1116: Underestimated (Double-Length)
The neck was sliced under the dagger, cut into two segments.
Two segments!
But, no blood?
What’s going on?
Why is there no blood?
Ding Yueqiu’s face became extremely serious. She dodged the grasp of the two behind her with a swish, flashing to the other side.
Dark Dragon’s neck, which was cut into two segments, didn’t leave a trace of blood.
In fact, Dark Dragon disappeared like a shadow of light.
"Afterimage?"
This thought occurred to everyone.
The concealment and body technique that everyone practiced were essentially the same, with no fundamental difference.
The strength of most people was roughly similar.
Only those who reached the Soldier King Realm could create a significant gap.
Among the Soldier Kings, their leader, Dark Dragon, was the most formidable.
He was far superior to An Feng and An Moon.
Similarly, he was much stronger than Ding Yueqiu.
However, this gap was not so vast that it couldn’t be bridged.
It wasn’t the main reason for the disparity in strength.
But the afterimage just now was of an entirely different appearance.
This was completely a leap across a level!
Has Dark Dragon’s body technique broken through again?
The next moment, Dark Dragon’s figure appeared three meters behind his original position.
"This, this, this, is too strong!" An Feng and An Moon were shocked.
They were still thinking of joining forces to eliminate Dark Dragon after breaking through to Advanced Soldier King and taking his place.
Now it seems that even if they did break through, without a breakthrough in body technique, it would be in vain.
They would become like the previous Advanced Soldier King Assassin, who just delivered his life in vain.
Ding Yueqiu stood five meters away from everyone, her face incredibly serious as she faced Dark Dragon, also wary of An Feng and An Moon.
Among the hundred or so people present, only the three posed a substantial threat to her.
No one else was her match.
As for being captured earlier, it was a ruse.
The reason was to find an opportunity to eliminate Dark Dragon, which was her slim chance to escape.
Of course, when An Feng and An Moon’s group found her, even if she didn’t pretend to be captured, she wouldn’t have escaped.
Then, as she faked, she ended up injured.
At that moment, there was no chance for a surprise attack.
As for why she could fool everyone?
In Chuzhou City for those months, it was more than just attending school!!!
Moreover, she acquired many resources and experiences from Lin Xi, giving her a fair degree of confidence in assassinating a Mid-level Soldier King.
"Trying to kill me, you filthy woman!" Dark Dragon said sinisterly.
At this moment, he was truly angry.
Being repeatedly embarrassed and humiliated, ever since the organization was established, no one had dared to confront him like this.
Or rather, everyone faced him with extreme caution.
Afraid that if they upset him, it would mean death!
Dark Dragon walked slowly toward Ding Yueqiu.
This was clearly a cat-and-mouse game.
It was a strategy to expose a psychological loophole in Ding Yueqiu.
After all, with her back against the wall, she had only two options: fight to the death or surrender.
Surrender?
If it were before meeting Lin Xi, she might have swallowed her pride!
But since meeting him, she could only fight to the death!
At worst, die!
This was already in her mind when she was found.
At this point, Ding Yueqiu was no longer frightened or terrified.
After all, they were all people with faces and eyes.
Why be afraid of him?
He didn’t have three heads and six arms or anything!
Why be so afraid?
"Yes, even if it means wanting to kill you!" Ding Yueqiu sneered motionlessly.
This made Dark Dragon frown, "Why? Haven’t I been good to you? You should know, if not for me, you’d be sold off somewhere by now."
Ding Yueqiu sneered coldly again, "Don’t you have any self-awareness?"
"...."
"Your filthy mindset, wanting to reach beyond your station, really dares to think!" "Besides, is there any man shorter and uglier than you?" "Truly, I don’t know how you survived to this age, it’s downright audacious!"
"...."
Even as Lin Xi, who had gradually slipped into the hall, mixed into the second row from the outermost circle.
No one noticed him.
And even if they did, very few knew him, perhaps only a handful.
After all, he hadn’t yet stepped into the heat of the online craze.
Otherwise, his business might be more valuable.
At that moment, Ding Yueqiu was inexplicably feeling watched by a familiar pair of eyes.
Whose eyes?
She thought for a moment, dorm mates?
But it didn’t feel like it!
"Lin Xi?"
She was suddenly startled, how could it be?
First, she hadn’t asked for help!
Second, this island was actually a deserted one, even invisible on maps, how did he find this place?
Third, even if he was present, with so many assassins around, he surely wouldn’t be so reckless, would he?
Because with so many people, even the top Peak Soldier King would kneel!
Turning, she looked in a certain direction.
"Huh?"
"Don’t recognize this group of people!"
She immediately concluded!
She checked other directions, finding no one was Lin Xi.
Could it be a delusion?
Was it an illusion from someone on the brink of death?
No, no!
She immediately dismissed the thought.
She was a Soldier King now!
How could she have such unfounded notions?
But she didn’t see anyone!
Her hopeful feeling vanished again.
She gave a self-mocking laugh!
Why would the master come here?
After all, she wasn’t one of the master’s women.
If she were, maybe there’d be hope.
But she considered herself merely a servant of the master.
That’s how she viewed it.
At this stage, she certainly didn’t want to be defiled by Dark Dragon.
She didn’t want to surrender!
In the next moment, she charged at Dark Dragon.
Even if the power gap was big, even if she were to die, she wanted to teach Dark Dragon a lesson.
She refused to believe she couldn’t even scratch Dark Dragon a bit.
Was he really that strong?
Instantly, the sound of metal clashing resounded in the hall.
When An Feng and An Moon wanted to step forward to assist.
They heard Dark Dragon roar, "You two get lost and don’t disturb me!"
The two exchanged glances and retreated helplessly.
They even motioned for others to retreat as well.
The remaining space was left for the two to fight.
Of course, they weren’t too worried about Dark Dragon’s safety.
No matter how much Ding Yueqiu hid her strength, it didn’t change the fact; she was seriously injured. Even if she wasn’t, she wasn’t a match for Dark Dragon.
After all, Dark Dragon surpassed Ding Yueqiu in realm, speed, and stealth techniques.
So, there was nothing to say; she was doomed.
"Huh?"
When everyone saw the dagger stabbing toward Ding Yuchou’s arm, it suddenly veered off.
And Ding Yueqiu managed to completely evade it.
Instead, Ding Yuchou’s dagger sliced Dark Dragon’s clothing.
It was just a hair’s breadth from wounding Dark Dragon.
Their fight didn’t interrupt nor sparked any extra words between them.
You could say they didn’t have time to speak, lest they expose a flaw.
"What just happened?"
"Did the boss deliberately avoid it?"
"The boss can’t bear to hurt her?"
"Isn’t that impossible!"
"Not necessarily, because Ding Yueqiu is beautiful with Soldier King strength, and the boss favors women with such power!"
"So, it’s quite possible!"
"...."
An Feng and An Moon immediately turned to warn everyone with a glance.
Were they too tired of living?
Even if the boss and Ding Yueqiu were fighting, the boss could still hear what they were saying.
With the boss’s temper, they would all meet unfortunate ends.
In fact, Dark Dragon had no mind to listen to his subordinates’ discussion.
If it were before, he might.
But now, for some reason, Ding Yueqiu’s strength wasn’t weak.
As for why he just dodged, it wasn’t intentional; he stepped on a small stone, causing his body to slide slightly.
Yet, one thing puzzled him, when did debris appear in the hall?
He hadn’t seen any just now!
