Chapter 136: Chapter 32 First Appearance of the Evil Light_2
A white light spread out towards everyone like a blanket, a white protective aura covering everyone on their side, including the elves. This magic was the most potent light magic that Ah Dai could use at his current level, through the power of the Dragon’s Blood, and among them, only Xuan Yue knew its name - Guardian of Light. It was an intermediate-level magic of the five levels of light magic, capable of dispelling all Evil Aura, and highly defensive. With Ah Dai’s current magic power, casting a third level magic was already quite impressive, somehow, with the enhanced transformation power of the Dragon’s Blood, he managed to barely cast this fifth level magic. Out of everyone, only she understood what Ah Dai was trying to do, whispering, "Ah Dai, you must be okay!" The Guardian of Light did not only protect everyone but also isolated any external audio and visual senses. Yan Shi was extremely anxious and planned to dash out of the protective aura to help Ah Dai but was stopped by Xuan Yue. Calmly she said, "Don’t worry, he can handle this." Even she did not understand why she had so much faith in Ah Dai.
When the Guardian of Light successfully protected everyone, all the thieves, including the man in black who was confronting Ah Dai, were stunned. They didn’t understand why Ah Dai would cast a protection spell on others instead of himself. The man in black asked, "What do you mean by this?" He couldn’t help but regret, if he had attacked when Ah Dai was casting magic just now, perhaps Ah Dai would have fallen by now.
Ah Dai turned around, facing the man in black. A hint of ruthless expression in his eyes, he replied, "Nothing, I’m just afraid that a powerful attack might hurt my friends."
The man in black was momentarily stunned. Ah Dai, although not weak, was merely a warrior with profound prowess. Except for the strange white light he emitted at the end, he was still inferior to himself. How could his moves possibly be so powerful? Is it magic? No, at this close range, he wouldn’t give him another chance to chant spells. Thieves always have the title of ’Mage Assassin’. Their speed is the bane of magicians.
While the man in black was in doubt, Ah Dai’s right hand had touched his chest.
The man in black suddenly felt as if he was in the midst of a harsh winter, shuddering involuntarily. In front of him, Ah Dai was no longer the naive kid he used to be. His eyes were filled with murderous intent, and a faint, grey aura constantly spewed out from him, filling the surroundings with an Evil Aura. Weaker members of the black-clothed gang involuntarily shivered, and the eyes of the seven newcomers couldn’t help but show fear.
The Evil Aura grew more and more intense, spreading continuously from Ah Dai at its center. The black-clothed assassin confronting Ah Dai hunched his back, the bone-chilling feeling almost unbearable to him. His dagger was held horizontally in front of his chest, his body slightly arching in anticipation of releasing an attack under pressure, when suddenly, "Wait!", the leader of the black-clothed gang called out. With a flash of their figures, the remaining six black-clothed men all floated in front of Ah Dai.
Ah Dai coldly watched them, without any fear. The True Qi was continuously flowing from his right hand into the hilt of the ’Sword of Hades’. The menacing Evil Aura filled around his body, he could clearly feel anytime now he could use the Sword of Hades to attack. "What? You all want to gang up on me?"
Blue Dou Qi emanated from the leader of the black-clothed men, resisting the evil aura in the air while he said, "Young man, if I’m not mistaken, you must be the inheritor of the ’Nether King’."
Ah Dai nodded without offering a response.
The man in black continued, "It’s surprising that the Assassin’s Guild has become compassionate enough to save lives. Well, today, out of respect for the Nether King, we admit defeat. However, you have to present some skills. Otherwise, we can easily kill everyone here and I doubt the ’Nether King’ would ever know who did it. Fourth Brother, why don’t you test if his ’Sword of Hades’ is genuine or not?"
A tall and slender black-clothed man stepped up a few steps, raised his dagger, staring at Ah Dai’s right hand.
Ah Dai calmly replied, "When the Sword of Hades is drawn, it leaves no survivors. You all should know that. You still have a chance to leave."
The black-clothed man known as ’Fourth Brother’ sneered, "Indeed, the ’Nether King’ is the top assassin on the continent. However, I do not know how much of his skills you possess." Upon finishing, his body transformed into a shadow, swiftly drifting towards Ah Dai like a flash of lightning. As he knew that his opponent was the most horrifying inheritor of ’Nether King’ from the Assassin’s Guild, he did not show any restraint like the black-clothed man before him. His dagger dashed forward and then drew across his throat, with determination that he would not back down. These thieves know very well, despite minimal interactions with the Assassin’s Guild normally, the Assassin’s Guild is not someone they could provoke. Killing to silence anyone was the best solution.
Ah Dai’s eyes flashed a cold light, chanting loudly, "Flash of the Nether King - Earth - Shake -" Finally, for the first time, he unsheathed the ultimate evil weapon, the Sword of Hades. Even he himself did not have a clear look at the appearance of the Sword of Hades, he could only feel his life energy was constantly being drawn by a ball of ghastly blue light in front of him. The True Qi was rapidly disappearing, his body disappeared in a flash towards the opponent. The atmosphere seemed to freeze by the surging Evil Aura, all the men in black lost their ability to move. The eerie, blue light seemed to have come from Hell and flashed past. Ah Dai appeared behind the man in black, with a look of disbelief filling his eyes. His pupils were slowly turning gray, his body was gradually withering. With two clangs, his dagger fell to the ground, his body collapsed on the ground, he had completely turned into a dry corpse.
