Chapter 52: The Killers Are Out
Qing Mo never dreamed that he might be defeated by Ling Chen, so even after he was defeated by Ling Chen's sword, he still couldn't believe what was happening before his eyes.
When he tried to struggle again, Ling Chen's sword was already against Green Demon's neck.
"Tell me, who sent you?"
Ling Chen looked at the severely injured Green Demon with a hint of coldness in his eyes. He wanted to see who was trying to kill him in this royal hunt.
"I can't tell you that, little brother. I was asked to do this by someone else. I am not the real culprit. Please spare me. I will never appear in front of you again."
Qing Mo didn't dare to reveal the mastermind behind the scenes. If he did, he might lose his life.
"If I tell you, I'll let you go, and you can still hide and continue to enjoy yourself. If you don't tell me, I'll kill you right now."
Ling Chen exerted a little force, and the sword tip cut the Green Demon's neck, and a trickle of blood oozed out.
"I'll tell you. I'll tell you."
Qing Mo's face darkened. Although Ling Chen was young, he was not an easy kid to fool. In order to save his life, he had to tell the truth. Ling Chen was right. If he told the truth, he might be able to escape. As long as he escaped from the Kingdom of Wind, he would be completely safe.
Seeing that the Green Demon had loosened his grip, Ling Chen also retracted his heavy sword a little, waiting for the Green Demon to speak.
"The person who ordered me to do this is actually..."
Qing Mo had just said half of his words when suddenly, with a "whoosh", a beam of black light suddenly shot out from the forest not far away and accurately hit Qing Mo on the back.
boom!
His eyeballs bulged out, the Green Demon's heart was shattered by the ferocious force, and his body fell heavily to the ground.
"who?"
Ling Chen quickly stepped back, looking around with a vigilant expression, and saw several dark shadows slowly walking out from the direction where the hidden weapon came from.
"What a useless piece of shit."
The black-clothed man at the head was wearing a veil, so his true appearance could not be seen, but his voice was quite deep, and he was obviously a middle-aged man. He fixed his eyes on the corpse of the Green Demon and snorted coldly, "Not only did he fail to complete the mission, he even wanted to betray the people behind him. Fortunately, we have a backup plan, otherwise we would have been tricked by this bastard."
"In the end, we have to do it ourselves. This kind of trash is really unreliable." Another man in black also said coldly.
"I didn't expect that a mere first-level martial artist could achieve this. You are indeed a famous young genius in the martial arts world. It is worth it for you to die in the hands of the three of us today."
The black-clothed man at the head of the group looked at Ling Chen, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
"Who are you? I don't remember ever offending you. Can you please let me know?"
Ling Chen's face was solemn. Of the three people in front of him, two were second-level martial artists. As for the leader, like Qing Mo, he was a third-level martial artist. Such a lineup together was simply terrifying.
He had just used up all his strength to defeat the Green Demon. Now if there were another enemy of this kind, even if he had three heads and six arms, he would probably die here.
Hearing Ling Chen's words, a man in black also grinned and was about to speak, but was stopped by the leading man in black.
"You haven't offended us, but you have offended the people above us. This is all I can say. I hope you won't resent us when you get to the underworld."
The black-clad leader did not reveal any useful information. After saying that, he raised his sword and walked towards Ling Chen.
The two men in black behind him also drew their weapons and followed.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Ling Chen's face darkened. The current situation would undoubtedly force him into a desperate situation .
The black-clad leader alone was enough to kill him.
Swish!
At this moment, the black-clothed leader moved. His feet were like the wind, and he took extremely swift steps and rushed towards Ling Chen's left side.
Ling Chen watched helplessly as the black-clad leader approached quickly, but he could no longer escape. At this moment, if he turned around, he would probably be attacked madly from behind and die without a burial place.
laugh!
The black-clad leader's sword drew a few sparks in the air and slashed over.
Lifting the Tianfu heavy sword, Ling Chen rushed towards the black-clothed leader.
clang!
A crisp metallic sound was heard, and Ling Chen was blown away. The Tianfu heavy sword almost slipped out of his hand, leaving a 20-meter mark on the ground.
Phew!
A mouthful of blood spurted onto the Tianfu heavy sword. Ling Chen used the sword to support his body. The previous sword strike had caused considerable damage to his body.
However, the black-clothed leader did not give up the attack. After repelling Ling Chen, he rushed over again with his sword raised, full of murderous intent.
"If this continues, you will surely die."
Ling Chen took a deep breath. The more life-and-death moments like this occurred, the more he needed to stay calm. However, his attention was on the three masked men in black. He did not notice that the blood he had just sprayed on the Tianfu Heavy Sword was drying up at a speed visible to the naked eye. It was actually completely sucked away by the Tianfu Heavy Sword.
Ding ding ding!
Seeing several more sword beams breaking through the air, Ling Chen used the last of his strength to swing the Tianfu heavy sword to block, but with each blow, Ling Chen would retreat dozens of steps, and more and more blood flowed from the corners of his mouth.
As Ling Chen's blood stained the Tianfu heavy sword, a faint blood light seemed to emerge from the inside of the sword.
"Haha, Ling Chen, your swordsmanship is very good, agile and elegant, but I don't understand why you use a heavy sword. This heavy sword is heavy and has no edge. It is basically a burden. If you change it to an ordinary sword, you may be able to live a few more seconds."
The black-clad leader looked at Ling Chen as if he were a dead man. He was also a swordsman, so he couldn't help but feel a little sorry for Ling Chen, so he said a few more words.
However regrettable it is, Ling Chen is the person Prince Tai specifically wants to kill, and he must die today!
"Ling Chen! Prepare to die!"
The black-clad leader raised his sword, jumped high, and swung the sword at Ling Chen in mid-air. A thick sword energy shot out and enveloped Ling Chen.
"it's over."
The remaining two men in black stopped one after another. It was not their turn to attack. Ling Chen was no match for the black-clad leader in the first place, and the other party was already at the end of his strength. It would only take a puff for the black-clad leader to kill Ling Chen.
“Damn it!”
Ling Chen drew up the last breath of true energy in his body and injected it into the Tianfu Heavy Sword. The next moment, with a sudden "hum" sound, a layer of dazzling blood light appeared on the Tianfu Heavy Sword. This blood light spread from the sword body upwards and finally entered Ling Chen's body.
All of a sudden, a vast aura of bloodthirstiness and murder suddenly surged into Ling Chen's mind. At this moment, the scene in front of Ling Chen instantly turned into a battlefield with corpses everywhere and blood flowing like a river. Astonishing murderous intent gushed out from his body and rushed straight into the sky.
