But if he doesn't act, he will lose one side.
Meanwhile, as he pondered, Hundred threw the knife up and caught it swiftly before making a short slash motion; then the head of one of the three middle-aged men was sent away from his body and rolled on the ground.
'Shit!' Liam yelled in his heart before opening the inventory and taking out one invisibility talisman and tearing it.
At the same time, the head of yet another one fell on the ground and blood gushed out like a garden sprayer.
Following Liam action, the torn talisman turn to a speck of light, just as before, it floated into Liam's body and after that Liam launched with pseudo lightning speed.
He leaped into the air and arrived close to Hundred, quickly he took out his mechanism sword and rolled the main ring causing the sword to grow from its initial pen length to the size of a short sword and with it he countered the knife that was about the slaughter the last one.
Ponytail and the other was shocked when a weapon suddenly appeared and grew in size and then slashed at the incoming knife attack.
Cling~
The sound of the two metals colliding with each other reverberated in the whole room.
Liam still in invisible mode was pushed back but then he hid the sword again, then he moved his hands and grabbed the last middle-aged man and leapt through the window.
Quickly he landed on a roof in the mansion and began racing, he looked back with the demon eye and he discovered that they did not come after him.
Why? Because, every living thing that Liam touched will become invisible as long as Liam is invisible, with this the others could not race after him without any clue of his direction.
Liam got to his room in the inn, entered through the window and tightly tied the man up before racing towards the mansion again.
His demon eyes still detected that the trio were still at the mansion.
Two buildings away, Liam expelled essence into his feet and leaped into the air with a great force.
Whoosh.
He entered inside the third floor, he could see the trio preparing themselves for his arrival so he took this chance and slayed one of them before poking at a small bag in the room. ponytail and took him as another of his hostage.
Nevertheless, as he wasn't all powerful, Hundred threw his knife at one small bag on the wall inside this room.
The knife tore open the bag and the content which was an odourless powder was sprayed everywhere in the room.
Seeing this, Liam could not help himself but he impressed by Hundred quick thinking but unfortunately that action will not work on him.
Before the powder could reach him, Liam moved backward and withdrew from there while ensuring that his leg did not touch the ground.
Nevertheless, he was wrong to think that Hundred was trying to use the powder to monitor his footsteps.
Swoosh.
Hundred took out a small knife and threw it at him, his aim was perfect and the knife move with such speed that was difficult to evade given the distance between them.
'Damnit, I was fooled.' He thought, his body was small but his strength was vast, with his just his right hand he was able to fling the body of ponytail into the roof of a nearby building and at the same time used his left hand to form a shield against the knife.
The knife met with his body, but only left a small hole that blood gushed out from but it wasn't serious and he didn't even feel the pain.
Seeing that he was not badly injured made him to sigh in relief.
'This bastard is really good with his knife and his cultivation is way above my league.' Liam thought to himself as dodged yet another knife thrown at him by Hundred.
He thought the dude was using the powder to trace his steps but he was wrong.
The powders was actually used to monitor his movement and location.
With the whitish little particles moving in the air, a little movement of any object will cause a change in the flow of it and that way Hundred was able to tell where he was.
'So that's why. really brilliant, too bad I can't fight you now, the next time I come I'll take your life.'
With that, he leaped through the window and grabbed the almost lifeless body of ponytail.
Meanwhile, inside the top floor of the mansion, Hundred expressionlessly stared at the window and muttered;
"Damnit, he escaped, he escaped. Who exactly is that with the confidence to go against me?"
"He even took ponytail and killed one of our members, I have to tell this to the other brothers and sisters to be prepared. Ponytail is a coward that fears for and cherish his life so much, he will most likely leak all our information away."
He clicked his fingers and a small ball of white light appeared and started swirling over his body so fast.
When it disappeared, so did Hundred.
"Hmph, such profound techniques, it's my first time seeing a cultivator with light magic, I guess it's time to take my leave and do my homework."
Liam was at the edge of the windows as he watched Hundred disappear into the air.
After seeing that, he sighed softly and leaped into the air with ponytail in his right hand.
....
"I swear that's all I know, my boss is not a member of the yellow horn black wing. he's just one of their minor supporters in the shadow, please believe me, all I said is nothing but the truth."
"So what about the documents they were looking for, do you really not know what's inside?"
"I really don't know, the document was taken away by our master who was on a journey to seek the legacy of the rain monarch, the content of the documents is unknown to any of us"
