Nine Stars Killer Novel - Chapter 652
Chapter 652 Sword Drawing Technique
Without daring to stay any longer, the group of six quickly walked out of the mountain range. As long as they returned safely to their clan, this mission would be considered a complete success. As for the deaths of the three people who joined them, they were not part of the mission.
Shortly after the explosion, a black shadow flew towards the center of the explosion. After a few breaths of time, it landed on the ground. It looked at the ground filled with minced meat and the ground after the aftershocks. It was constantly searching for something.
“Where did the thing go? Even if it was self-detonating, the box wouldn’t break. Could it be that the thing isn’t on them?”
The black-clothed man searched around, but there was actually nothing, only signs of being damaged after being struck by the force.
“What’s going on? There are other people’s auras here. Could it be that someone took advantage of their self-detonation to take something away?”
The black-clothed man swept his divine sense and discovered that there was still the aura of others in the air. His eyes instantly turned extremely cold.
“Who is it? Who dares to steal what I want from my hands!”
The black-clothed man went crazy. He punched the ground and a huge pit appeared.
“It’s only been a cup of tea time since the self-detonation. The person who snatched the box must not be far away.”
The black-clothed man swept his divine sense and chased after the aura.
“Ye Feng, what do you think is inside this box? Can we open it and take a look?”
Xia Xuan followed behind Ye Feng, wanting to see what was inside the box.
“We are not allowed to ask any questions about the contents of the mission. We are not allowed to know what is inside the box. Do you want to violate this rule?”
Ye Feng said coldly. He did not have a good impression of a villain like Xia Xuan who was afraid of death.
“There are only the six of us here. We won’t talk about it. Who knows? Do you think so?”
Xia Xuan still didn’t give up and wanted to see what was going on.
“Get lost if you don’t want to die!”
Ye Feng was finally angered by the question. A terrifying killing intent was emitted from his body. If possible, Ye Feng did not mind killing him directly. Along the way, he was like a fly, constantly following behind Ye Feng.
“Forget it, we should hurry up and return to the clan as soon as possible!”
Li Xiaoran pulled Xia Xuan and told him not to inquire anymore. Ye Feng’s temper was very strange. Along the way, there were very few smiles and very few conversations with everyone. Even if Wang Ziao talked to him, Ye Feng was only perfunctory. If he asked a question, he would not say another word.
“What’s so great about it? Isn’t it just for him to take care of it?”
Xia Xuan curled his lips, his face full of displeasure, but he did not dare to explode, fearing that the divine artifact in Ye Feng’s hand, the remaining might of the Sun Shooting Bow, was still there.
A day passed peacefully. The few of them had already left the Dragon Flame Mountain and walked towards the periphery of the mountain. Along the way, there was almost no rest. They swallowed the Good Fortune Pill when they were tired.
Suddenly, Ye Feng felt a cold aura floating towards him. Not far away, three pitch-black shadows appeared.
“You guys originally decided not to move, no one should follow!”
Ye Feng stared fixedly at the three black shadows that suddenly appeared in front of him. The corner of his mouth curved into an arc. He was finally certain that a mole had appeared between them. The three assassins from the Reaper Organization had returned. He had fallen over a cliff and the Reaper Assassin had already left. This proved that Ye Feng had died by default. Why did he suddenly appear? Furthermore, it was obvious that he was the target. There was only one possibility. Someone had informed them.
“Isn’t this the three people who snatched the room from us in the inn? Why are they here!”
Wang Ziao recognized the three of them at a glance and snatched the room from them at the inn.
“You guys go ahead, I’ll be right back!”
Ye Feng turned his head and said to the others, his body fluttering as he swept towards the depths of the mountain range.
The three black-clothed men didn’t seem to be interested in the others. The moment Ye Feng flashed out, their bodies also disappeared.
“What should we do? Should we follow? Ye Feng might be in danger!”
Wang Ziao was worried about Ye Feng’s safety and asked everyone.
“Follow me? If you want to die, follow me. I don’t want to die. In the inn, Ye Feng stabbed him in the arm. Now it’s normal for him to come up and seek his life. Don’t you feel that one of them is at the fourth level of the Divine Martial Arts?”
Xia Xuan immediately denied that the black clothed man was looking for Ye Feng. At that time in the inn, Ye Feng stabbed the black clothed man’s arm with his sword. He must have harbored a grudge in his heart. Now, he had come to seek Ye Feng’s life.
They all believed that the black-clothed man had come for that sword strike, and they didn’t know that they were from the Reaper Organization.
“So what if you’re at the fourth level of the Divine realm? Didn’t Ye Feng save your life? Now that Ye Feng is in danger, we are ignoring him. Do you still have humanity?”
Seeing that Xia Xuan and Li Xiaoran looked indifferent, Wang Ziao even let out a roar.
“Big Brother Wang, let’s go quickly. Otherwise, Ye Feng will be in danger!”
Tong Shen told Wang Ziao that their lives were Ye Feng’s, so he followed without hesitation, leaving only Yang Xin, Xia Xuan and Li Xiaoran standing on the spot.
“Big Brother Yang, what should we do? The item is still in Ye Feng’s hands. If Ye Feng dies, the item is lost, and the mission is not completed, then we will die on our way back.”
Although Li Xiaoran was extremely unwilling to follow, the item was in Ye Feng’s hands. If Ye Feng died, once the item was lost, they would simply be unable to find it.
“Don’t worry, I can’t lose anything!”
Yang Xin said confidently, as if everything was under control.
“Really?”
Li Xiaoran didn’t know why Yang Xin was so confident, but he chose to believe it. If he followed him now, he would die. If he lost something, he could at least choose to return to his clan and explain it. He could also choose to escape permanently. It was better than giving it to the black-clothed man to kill.
“If you believe me, just wait here. Someone will bring the things back safely!”
Yang Xin wore a mysterious smile as he sat there in peace of mind.
Ye Feng’s body jumped a few times and landed on a huge mountain peak. Behind him were three pitch-black shadows, like ghosts, closely following behind Ye Feng.
“Whoosh whoosh!”
Three shadows landed not far from Ye Feng.
“We meet again so soon!”
Ye Feng smiled coldly as he looked at the three black-clothed men. A sinister smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
“Neither did we expect that we would survive a catastrophe if we fell over a cliff. I regret not confirming it at the bottom of the cliff.”
The black-clothed man in the middle seemed to regret it, because this matter had been severely criticized by his superiors. When he reported the matter, the mission had been completed and the target had already died. When he received the news, not only did Ye Feng not die, he even appeared unharmed. The three of them were even punished by the system of the Reaper Organization.
The Reaper Organization had a rule. If a mission failed, there were only two possibilities. Killed by a target, or choosing to commit suicide. This was one of the most terrifying reasons for the Reaper Organization.
As long as they accepted the mission, they would be doomed to this fate. After completing the mission, they would continue to live. If they failed, they would not be able to complete the mission. First, they would be killed. Second, they would fail the mission and choose to die. It was extremely cruel.
This time, the Reaper Organization had given them a chance. If they killed their target, they would be able to redeem themselves for their sins and not die. There was no need for them to come back.
“I’m very curious. How did you know that I wasn’t dead? Furthermore, you clearly know the route we took.”
Ye Feng did not answer his question, but asked instead.
“You are very smart. You discovered it so quickly. That’s right, someone informed us, but you must die today.”
As long as he used his brain, he could imagine that someone must have notified them. Otherwise, how would he know Ye Feng’s whereabouts? Ye Feng did not believe that they had met so coincidentally. There must be something else.
“Tell me, who notified you!”
This was the problem that Ye Feng was concerned about. Now that the problem had arisen, there were only these five people with Ye Feng. In other words, one of these five people was a spy, or rather, not someone sent by the Patriarch.
“When you die, I might tell you!”
The black-clothed man told Ye Feng that there were already many things he didn’t want to continue talking about. Now, as long as he killed Ye Feng, the mission would be considered complete.
“Do you think I can’t find out if you don’t tell me? If I kill you, I’ll naturally know who the mole is.”
Ye Feng sneered. Since someone had notified them, there must still be a communication talisman on his body. As long as he killed him, he would know who had secretly notified them.
“Arrogant, you ran away last time. You can’t escape this time.”
The last time they were escaped by Ye Feng, they finally fell off the cliff. They had already missed an opportunity. This time, they must not miss it again.
“Did I say I wanted to escape?”
The corners of Ye Feng’s mouth carried a cold smile. His robe was calm, and a hint of obscure aura appeared, making people unable to see through it.
“Since that’s the case, then die!”
The black-clothed man on the right couldn’t wait any longer. He pressed down on the hilt of the saber at his waist with his right hand, and with a flying shot, he slashed down towards Ye Feng.
It was still the Saber Drawing Technique. With such an exquisite Saber Drawing Technique coupled with an excellent movement technique, even if the third level of the Divine Martial Technique was careless, it would be struck.
“Sword Drawing Technique!”
Ye Feng shouted coldly and unsheathed the Slaughter Sword.
Chi!
A wisp of blood burst out, gorgeous and colorful.
“Tick, tick …”
The black-clothed man froze in front of Ye Feng. The saber in his hand had disappeared, and he did not know where it fell. He covered his neck with both hands, and his face was filled with pain.
“It’s not just you who can pull out a saber, I can also pull out a sword!”
The sword was dripping blood, and the black-clothed man’s neck was also dripping blood. Blood slowly seeped through the gap between his fingers, sealing his throat with a sword, cutting off the black-clothed man’s neck cleanly and nimbly.
The surroundings suddenly became incomparably quiet. Only a cold wind blew past. The black-clothed man was not dead yet. He stared at Ye Feng with a pair of eyes, as if he did not understand. It was as if he was asking why Ye Feng’s sword was so fast, several times faster than his saber.
“Gudong, gudong!”
The black-clothed man wanted to say something, but he couldn’t make a sound. Large mouthfuls of blood sprayed out from his mouth and his body unwillingly fell backwards, because the essence, energy, and spirit in his body had been completely absorbed by the Slaughter Sword. At this moment, there was only a leather bag left.
The bodies of the two black-clothed men standing not far away suddenly trembled, their eyes narrowed, and a trace of shock flashed past their eyes.
