…
“Humph!”
Crescent Emissary took a deep breath and began to wield the protective shield with his left hand. Warm wind flew out from the protective shield endlessly and drove the cold, vicious air away. Then he took up his sword and struck Leylin’s dagger precisely.
“Bang!”
With the hard thump, Leylin felt a severe pain in his wrist, when his dagger suddenly flew out and fly out dozens metres away behind him. Strangely enough Leylin has somehow managed to use Crescent emissary momentum to threw the dagger and the location he chose was exactly in Wilde direction. Wilde eyes widen in surprise and astonishment, looking at Leylin he was filled with a sense of horror, the battle IQ that Leylin has showcased has truly mesmerized him, in his knowledge not even a Earth realm warrior can display such sense of presence fighting a lower ranked warrior not to mention Leylin who is battling two warriors who are two realms higher than him.
“Rank 1 spell—Verdant Crescent Firelash!” As Leylin took care of Wilde monetarily, he immediately used one of his newly created spell, which is mostly the upgrade of his previous Rank 0 Verdant Crescent Backlash.
As soon as the clash meet Leylin was thrown away but Crescent Emissary was having a hard time too. The dark lighting fiery power gushing out from his Leylin’s body was extremely vicious as well. As he defended from it, he retreated with a stagger.
His body was scorched as he could smell his skin burning. At the same time, an air of coldness, evil and panic, sprawled through his arms into the brain like a small snake and dragged him into a bloody atmosphere again.
Leylin stood still as he saw Crescent Emissary’s eyes become perplexed and retreated staggering into the direction of Mary who was thrown on the ground.
At that moment, his dagger which was thrown dozens of meters away behind him at an amazing speed met with Wilde throwing him backwards.
Currently Leylin would miss the best timing if didn’t rush to Crescent Emissary; maybe he would have come to his senses by then and recovered.
‘Taking care of a Disaster realm warrior is much troublesome than I thought, if not for the instant killing of all other warriors and their Profound Qi being absorbed and refined constantly in my body I would need to run away.”
These thoughts flashed across in his mind like lightning and his eyes turned cold. Then he rushed to Crescent emissary with all his strength and captured his waist with his arms. He pushed up with his legs and drove his claws into his chest as he sped toward Mary with all might, and yelled, “Stab!”
On hearing his shout, Mary, who was lying on the ground unconscious, woke up with a dark expression on her face.
“Stop! Mary come to your senses!”
Without any hesitance, Mary summoned all her strength and raised her short sword which was as long as her arm.
“Puuuuh!”
As Leylin fingers from the front and the sword from the back stabbed into Crescent Emissary ‘s heart, he woke up with a severe pain. He flailed crazily and tried hard to keep his balance.
The sword stabbed into the back part of his heart thus his body tilted in the air, and he didn’t fall onto Mary immediately.
With the support of the sword, He kept that tilting position magically and didn’t fall immediately, as if his legs had rooted in the ground.
Crescent emissary struggled with all his strength but only to find his hands held by Leylin tightly.
Leylin looked rather cool, and he smirked, “Death comes in various ways but you should be proud for death came from a God to you.”
Keeping that position, Crescent emissary muttered, “Bastard! The Dark World would not let you off!”
Crescent was really tough and he could still raise his leg like lightning under this situation. He kicked his knees into Leylin’s belly heavily.
Leylin injected his Profound Qi crazily into his arms. Since he couldn’t manage the [Dark Light Shield] on his Dark Lighting Armor, he used the Second level Petrifaction Martial Spirit.
Crescent emissary struck his knees into Leylin again and again all the while gripping him tightly.
“Wilde! Kill this motherfucker!”
Under that heavy striking, the power of Petrifaction seemed to be concentrated in Leylin’s abdomen, while the other parts of his body turned normal. His abdomen grew brown and was as hard as stone.
Under the attacks of Crescent emissary, who was at the First Sky of the Disaster Realm, only a monster like Leylin could still support himself with the Petrifaction Martial Spirit. Though he felt extreme pain in his abdomen, he didn’t spit out blood and his defensive power became abnormally strong.
Mary who was under them and under a hypnotic mindless state didn’t care that both were gripped tightly. Currently, If she thrust her short sword toward them, or Crescent emissary fell down heavily, the sword would go through his body, and then into Leylin’s body, sticking them together.
“You are from the Lenoir Family, I never knew that they have such an outstanding genius hidden amongst them. It’s a pity you must die today.”
Leylin looked at him coldly with a smile. Then under Crescent emissary’s frightened eyes, he threw both the Emissary and himself with all his might onto Mary.
“Poooh! Poooh!”
The sound of the weapon breaking the flesh and bone came one by one. Mary was lying on her back, while Crescent emissary was lying on her on his back, and Leylin on him.
The sword in her hand stabbed through both of them. It went through Crescent emissary’s heart, and then forced itself into Leylin’s shoulder.
Crescent emissary heart was stabbed through. After several quivers, he died right away with an extremely terrified face.
Though his shoulder was broken, Leylin looked calm and still didn’t let go of Crescent emissary.
“Die!” Without any delay Wilde with an extremely murderous expression appeared behind Leylin.
As Crescent emissary Profound Qi spilled out of his body and flew into Leylin, he released his hands and activated his Immortal Marital Spirit in full force to heal himself.
Leylin also didn’t waste a moment to grab the now dead Crescent emissary and thrust his body behind himself, throwing Mary along with him in a ferocious Wilde direction.
“Bastard!” As expected Wilde cut through Crescent emissary body’s but he had to stop his momentum before injuring Mary.
“What happened! Did you perhaps thought we should have a fair fight? What nonsense, I won’t hesitate to throw an infant in your way if it means I can kill you.” Leylin who retreated looked at Wilde with a devilish expression licking the blood flowing through his hands from the shoulder.
“You are from Lenoir family but how’s that possible, why can you use that Lighting move and that body armour. It can’t be a Marital Skill, the amount of Profound Qi needed would be too immense.” Wilde looked at Leylin with a frowned expression but soon his contemplation turned into astonishment and horror, “Are you perhaps someone with Twin Marital Spirit?”
“…. ” Leylin didn’t answer as he kept staring at Wilde without any change in expression from his supposed revelation.
“First it was Kyle Crystal from Crystal family and now, one from Lenoir family. Although we can’t do anything about Kyle, you must die. Merchant Union can’t have so many geniuses… ”
“That’s true, a place like Merchant Union is definitely not appropriate enough for me and surely there would be a bloodbath on the wake for the Union and your family would always feel the brunt of it but that’s for the future.” Leylin grabbed his sore neck rubbing his injured shoulder as he spoke calmly.
“A disaster realm warrior have very dense Profound Qi.” Leylin took a deep breath and enjoyed a lot.
As he was talking, his muscles contracted slowly and his body got more and more dry.
A freezing, insane, amd murderous smell flew out of his body slowly, forming into a white thin fog, which spread all over him.
“You need to know only one thing and that is…..you need to know nothing!” Leylin muscles expanded as he moved towards Wilde.
Leylin suddenly rushed forward towards them.
“Dark Lighting Armor—Fiend Gloves!”
He had all his Profound Qi flowing into his arms like crazy. When he was moving his arms, there was even a deep bursting sound in the air, like a mountain was falling apart.
The white lighting mist entangling his iron fist had already concentrated and turned into a layer of dense liquid matter covering his arms, making his bony arm look even more terrifying, like the sharp claw of an evil ghost.
“Poo!”
Leylin’s arm was like a sharp sword, and pierced right towards the chest of Wilde. Wilde used his agility and martial spirit to push Leylin to somehow escape leaving behind a deep scar on his chest.
Leylin used his fight fist to punch him so hard that he crashed through a tree with a deep sound.
“I will kill you!” Wilde immediately got up with bloodshot eyes filled with anger. He couldn’t help but shout with anger. He generated a huge silver light ball on his palm and pushed it hard towards Leylin’s chest.
There was an overwhelming gravity falling towards Leylin, which, combining with the exploding power, crashed, all of a sudden, on Leylin’e chest.
“Deng! Deng! Deng!”
Leylin had to step back some distance before he could stabilize his body.
He just took the full blow of tough a warrior at the Disaster Level right on his chest, if he could he would have dodged but currently Leylin is severely lacking in Profound Qi, and the energy from Crescent emissary would take a few moments to refine.
It would be better to use his powers for offensive and more importantly, Leylin’s chest only hurt a little after taking the hit. He checked his body for a second only to see his body completely intact.
That light ball blow only charred his chest a little but didn’t manage to hurt him.
“So this is the second stage of the Petrification Martial Spirit! No, to be more exact this is the level of Petrification Martial Spirit combined with my physical stats and vitality.”
Leylin was actually wildly laughing on the inside. He kept operating his own Profound Qi, guiding it rapidly through his own veins and vessels in his chest. His Profound Qi was like a warm stream of energy, quickly recovering his chest from the freezing light attack by blowing within his veins and vessels.
Leylin put on a scary grin on his face. With the help of his Petrification Martial Spirit which had already reached the level of third state despite being only second stage, he took this hit just fine.
Now Wilde was forced into a corner. There was no way for him to take care of him.
“Here take this!”
*Boom*
“Ah!”
The Wilde started to scream with great pain. He started to hit Leylin like crazy, desperate to break his defense and get out of this crazy situation.
“You tried so hard to get in, but now you wanna leave? Hey, hey, too late for that!”
Leylin put on his Dark Light Shield and used his Petrification Martial Spirit to block all his crazy attacks with a mocking grin on his face. Despite his somewhat thin body, Leylin was standing there like a steady stone. No matter how hard the attacks were, he just stood there without moving an inch.
“So busy attacking, that you are not even bothering to check your body. Go to afterlife!”
“Hell Finger!”
Leylin put on a scary grin. Countless streams of lightning white smoke suddenly wrapped tightly around Wilde’s body. And with his most terrified screams, Leylin pierced his throat with one finger.
Wilde soon lost the light in his eyes. His body also started to become soft and fell onto the ground slowly.
*Puke*
Leylin suddenly threw a large amount of blood as his whole body was stained, he was bearing the brunt of the overexertion on his body.
“Pretty lady, what should I do with you?” Leylin looked at the unconscious Mary with a playful look as he wiped his mouth clearing the blood.
“Let’s clear the scene first.” After thinking it over, he quickly took out a packet of medicinal powder from his robe and sprayed it all around the forest without hesitation.
This medicinal powder was called “Cleansing Powder”, which had an extraordinary absorbing power, capable of capturing all the little impurities floating in the air, including toxins, smell and poisonous smoke.
After using one packet of “Cleansing Powder”, the remaining bloody smell in the area was instantly wiped clean like magic.
After capturing the bloody smell floating in the air, the “Cleansing Powder” had become dozens of little red particles which looked just like drops of blood, micronized into little atoms falling onto the ground.
….
Before long, two men, who wore silver gowns and masks, showed up secretly from the woods. Their masks were green and tush-like, which were different from the pale masks on the Crescent Emissary and his people.
“Red, have you found anything?” One of them asked coldly.
“Signs of fighting but can’t distinguish. Many warriors and mercenaries are frequent here. Too many foot prints here. We can’t tell which are our targets’.” one Star Emissary answered.
The Dark World had two divisions—-Dark Emissaries and Black Emissaries. The former were responsible for tracing and collecting information, and the latter killing. They were graded as the Star, the Moon and the Sun.
Though the Dark Emissaries and the Black Emissaries did completely different work, they were strictly graded. The star emissaries of Star Level were under Crescent Emissaries of Moon Level.
“The target should not be that hard to find? We are being mislead by someone, we can’t even contact Crescent Emissary?”
The Crescent Emissary was good at kiling and fighting, but was bad at tracing. Likewise, they were good at tracking.
“It’s a large area and there are too many warriors, demon beasts and mercenaries, so it’s really hard to find the targets. During these days’ searching, we were attacked by numerous mercenaries, and one of us was killed. If we don’t find Crescent Emissary then, we can only conclude his demise and retreat waiting for more backup.”
The Dark World had disrepute, so the bold warriors and mercenaries who came to this area might kill people from the Dark World if they were in a bad mood.
In the past couple of days, they had encountered these kinds of cases for some time.
“Can’t find the targets, and there are signs of unsettled demon beasts, too tough…”
After pondering on it, one of them said, “We should stop this aimless search. Let’s call for backup and wait in the Silent Town? It is the only way toward the Merchant Union. They would definitely go to the Silent Town once they get out of the Dark Forest, thus we could wait for them there.”
“Good idea. Whoerver goes to the Merchant Union would pass the Silent Town, so we just need to wait and meet them there.”
