----------------------------------------------------------------------
Mie Feng slowly raised her head, looking despondently at Ah Dai both her inflamed eyes brimming with tears, she said grievously, "I’m sorry, it was me, it was me who didn’t keep my promise. Just kill me."
The master revealed a wicked smile, he said indifferently, "What, don’t you want to explain to the one you love why you had to do this to him?"
Mie Feng shouted tragically, "Stop talking, stop talking." She struggled to free herself from Mie Yi’s grip, rushing towards Ah Dai and Sheng Xie with a fervent desire to die. But how could the master just let her do as she wished? A red light flickered in his eyes, he beckoned casually, forcefully pulling Mie Feng back, a few threads of gray energy shot out, freezing Mie Feng in place.
Ah Dai trembled when the master mentioned that Mie Feng’s beloved was himself. He had long suspected Mie Feng had feelings for him, but he had always been unwilling to admit it. This revelation made him feel strange. He took a deep breath, channeling the True Qi to support the golden body holding the silver ball. He confronted the master, "You controlled Mie Feng to set me up, didn’t you? You really are cunning! It seems you’ve had the upper hand all along."
The master chuckled, "Only figuring it out now? Unfortunately, it’s too late. To be frank, your biggest mistake was not killing Mie Yi when you had the chance. I didn’t expect that you could already use the fifth move of the Hades Sword Technique without backlash, this was far beyond my expectations and also made me view you seriously. It took Mie Yi three months to recover after coming back. On that day, He had already recognized Mie Feng’s identity. I knew that your target was all the strongholds of my Assassin’s Guild, so instead of waiting for you to destroy them one by one, I chose to gather them to confront you. As a result, I didn’t hesitate to expose the headquarters’ location and ordered all assassins to return while setting up this trap for you. Mie Feng is one of the claimants from the Thief Guild, Mie Yi had noticed it when you left the warehouse. Given this clue, I had to make use of it. For us assassins, using every possible means is the highest realm. Although the Thief Guild holds a position in the dark forces on this continent, it’s still far behind my Assassin’s Guild. I broadcast all the network news, while always keeping an eye on the movements around Sunset City. At the same time, I led more than a hundred experts to raid the Thief Guild headquarters. As expected, the Thief Guild was completely destroyed, and all the key figures were captured by me. I didn’t expect that the Thief Guild would end by the hands of my Assassin’s Guild. It really breaks my heart! After all, they used to be my eyes." After a pause, the master showed a regretful expression on his face, "My subordinates planted the Thief Guild’s marks at every gate of Sunset City to attract Mie Feng. You might not know yet, the president of the Thief Guild is Mie Feng’s father. In order to save the lives of her father and elders, she had no choice but to cooperate with me. She guided you here last night. The dialogue between my subordinates in the yard was a plot I laid out to trick you today. You were so naive that you didn’t suspect anything. How does the taste of Wu Er Holy Water feel? Isn’t your body about to give up now? Oops, no, Wu Er Holy Water is tasteless and formless, what Mie Feng offered to you was double the amount of what I had initially given to "Hades". Such a precious spiritual medicine used on you, you should be proud of it. Don’t blame Mie Feng for harming you, if there’s anyone to blame, blame your own foolishness for daring to oppose me. Haha, hahahaha."
At this point, Ah Dai finally understood. The extreme toxicity of Wu Er Holy Water must have come from the food Mie Feng brought to him just before he left the hotel. That explains the weird expression she had on her face that time. Seeing the tears shimmering in Mie Feng’s eyes, Ah Dai’s gaze gradually softened. He won’t blame Mie Feng any more, because everything she did was forced upon her, not her own wish. Compared to him, Mie Feng is more pitiful. Turning his gaze back to the master, Ah Dai sternly said, "You’re despicable, using Mie Feng’s love for her elder to threaten her into dealing with me."
The Master snorted coldly, saying, "Am I despicable? And how are you better than me? If it weren’t for Mie Feng leading the way, could you have successively destroyed so many safe havens of my Assassin’s Guild? Weren’t you also taking advantage of him? Moreover, don’t forget my identity, as an assassin, the most important quality is to complete all tasks by any means necessary, and as the president of the Assassin’s Guild, my understanding of this is far deeper than anyone else’s. I don’t have time to dither with you here, answer me immediately, either join my dark forces or, well, die——" He deliberately dragged out the word ’die’, a massive murderous aura appeared on all the assassins, Ah Dai and Sheng Xie were constantly drifting in the waves of this murderous aura. Ah Dai gave a wry smile, saying, "Want me to join the dark forces? Do you think that’s possible? Just go to hell." He suddenly opened his mouth, a blue light shot out like lightning from his mouth, heading towards the Master’s face. The Master was taken aback, his attention had always been on Ah Dai’s right hand, the Sword of Hades, he did not expect that his mouth could also spit out harmful things, looking at the blue light he was involuntarily struck with fear, thinking it was some secret weapon of Ah Dai, he swiftly retreated, pulling Mie Feng to hide a ten-meter distance away, his original position was replaced by Mie Yi. Mie Yi drew the Narrow Sword, induced it, and the blue silver ball popped into the ground and disappeared with a sound.
As it turned out, after Ah Dai’s relentless efforts, he finally spat out the silver ball that was coated with the deadly poison of Wuer Holy Water using his Golden Body technique. When he spat out the blue silver ball, Ah Dai instantly regained his martial powers, his meridians were smooth again, his spirits rose, yelled out loud, "Sheng Xie, let’s go ." He floated into the air, both hands transformed into dozens of light purple strands of Solid Battle Aura which launched towards Mie Yi. Sheng Xie roared angrily, his massive body floated up, even though there was a barrier obstructing ten meters above his head, not allowing him to fly out, this did not affect his strong attack power. He spread out his wings, the grey dragon breath mixed with golden starlight sprayed out, covering almost a thirty-meter range around him. The assassins within the range of the dragon breath had no time to attack, they gathered their battle aura outside their bodies to resist Sheng Xie’s corrosive breath under the unavoidable condition, at this point, Ah Dai’s Solid Battle Aura strands had already attacked in front of Mie Yi. Although Mie Yi’s power was somewhat lesser than Ah Dai’s, he would not wait to be killed without resisting, the Narrow Sword in his hand transformed into a sky full of cold stars and charged towards Ah Dai. Just when Ah Dai’s Solid Battle Aura strands were about to touch his cold stars, that purple light suddenly all disappeared, disappeared without a trace. Mie Yi’s attack was already spent, and he was unable to retract it, he could only continue to charge towards Ah Dai with gritted teeth. Ah Dai snorted coldly, the murderous aura all over his body suddenly retracted, concentrating entirely on Mie Yi, his right fist violently swung forward, a highly concentrated light purple battle aura surged out. Ah Dai paid no heed to the cold stars that were about to hit him, he charged at Mie Yi’s chest.
Mie Yi saw that he was no longer able to withdraw or change his attack, he gritted his teeth to speed up his Narrow Sword attack, trying to fight a desperate battle with Ah Dai. But, was he really have such an opportunity? Of course, the answer was negative. Just as Mie Yi’s cold stars were about to pierce Ah Dai, a layer of light purple Solid Battle Aura shield appeared in front of Ah Dai, forming a solid barrier in front of him, a series of dense clangs sounded, energy fluctuated and exploded in front of Ah Dai. Even when Mie Yi and six others joined hands in the past, they were unable to break down Ah Dai’s Solid Battle Aura shield, at this point how could he possibly succeed when he was alone and his power was scattered? However, while he was unsuccessful, Ah Dai’s Solid Battle Aura punch had already reached his chest, Mie Yi understood the peril he was in, he released the Narrow Sword in his hand and swiftly placed both palms on his chest, drawing all his power into his arms, trying to fend off Ah Dai’s attack. A loud bang echoed, Mie Yi was hurled into the air, blood spewed out, causing the air to be filled with a light smell of blood. Even though Ah Dai’s punch was distracted due to fending off the Narrow Sword, and it did not take Mie Yi’s life, it shattered his arms inch by inch, ensuring he could only live on as a cripple.
All of this was completed in a flash, when the other assassins rushed to Ah Dai’s side, Mie Yi’s body had already been thrown away. Ah Dai’s hands circled around and violently flung outwards, a circle of light purple light blades spread out from him as the center like lightning, the assassins who were rushed overhead were suddenly frightened, under the massive Solid Battle Aura blades, the Battle Aura they released was easily cut off like tofu, three of the assassins who couldn’t dodge in time were cut off from the waist.
Ah Dai was not feeling well either. The residual energy from the True Qi of over ten assassins that charged forward, most of it was bombarding the shields that he had formed around his body, causing surges in his blood and energy. Ah Dai did not pursue the assassins and floated back under the influence of his True Qi, landing behind Sheng Xie. Connected by their hearts and minds, seven golden bolts of lightning shot out from Sheng Xie’s golden horn, countering the other assassins rushing in. After a series of intense explosions in the air, the assassins were shocked back. Seizing this brief opportunity, with Ah Dai’s deliberate stimulation, the golden body in his Dantian released a strong light, and the True Qi of the ninth realm started to circulate wildly. Two clusters of light purple energy appeared in Ah Dai’s hands. As his power increased, a trace of silver light emitted from the light purple energy. Ah Dai was delighted, he knew that his power was finally approaching the realm of his Master, the Sword Saint of the Tian Gang. Because, what the silver color represented was the power of the sixth tier of the Divine Healing Technique. He chanted word by word, "Creation — Changes — Into — Lightning — Thunder — Clash!!!." His left hand cut out with lightning speed, the silver and purple energy flew out like a thin slice, fluttering lightly in the air. His right hand drew a semi-circle in front of his chest and slowly pushed out, the light purple glow suddenly became more radiant, releasing dazzling light and emitting roaring sounds like thunder. A purple lumisphere condensing the solid state energy of Ah Dai’s Divine Healing Technique slowly drifted forward. The thin slice of energy didn’t fly far. When the lumisphere appeared, the graceful light and the heavy energy friction violently, the dazzling light made it hard to look straight into it. The light purple energy of the Divine Healing Technique turned into a light silver color under the friction with the silver and purple thin slice, purple lightning kept circling around the light silver lumisphere, it slowly floated forward. Ah Dai had managed to enhance his Heavenly Thunder Clash technique to another level after cultivating the Divine Healing Technique to the highest realm. The thunder and lightning he wielded with his current strength might not match the Ultimate Evil Power of the Sword of Hades, but it had already surpassed the fourth tier of the Hades Technique—Nether shadow. Ah Dai was certainly not unwilling to use the Netherworld, but facing such a mighty enemy, he knew clearly that even the Netherworld might not be able to annihilate all enemies within his immediate vicinity. In order to keep his mind from being controlled again by evil and violent spirits, he opted to use the strongest ultimate skill he was capable of employing at the moment.
The dangerous aura radiated by the Heavenly Thunder Clash made even the powerful Sheng Xie tremble slightly. The surrounding assassins, seeing Ah Dai’s unusual skill, were all slightly taken aback. Of course, the most composed among them would naturally be the President of the Assassin’s Guild. Although he didn’t know what Ah Dai was up to, he could tell that the attack Ah Dai was preparing was so fierce that he doubted whether he could withstand it. As the president of the Assassin’s Guild and one of the masterminds of the Dark Forces, he was extremely selfish. He shouted loudly, "Attack with full force, don’t give him the chance to execute his ultimate attack". While he was saying so, he, together with Mie Feng, floated up and started moving towards the back.
The Silver-Purple Positive Thunder in front of Ah Dai was constantly absorbing the free energy in the air. After the formation of the Positive Thunder, a gigantic force field was formed with Ah Dai and Sheng Xie at the center. Sheng Xie had already stopped spitting out the dragon’s breath. Every time the assassins attacked, it would use its golden horn to release powerful lightning to keep the enemies at bay. Now, it was like a steel fortress, making it hard for the assassins to step forward. However, the assassins collected here were all the full strength of the Assassin’s Guild. The attacks of the Annihilators also brought great pressure to Sheng Xie. Under the continuous attack of the enemies, drops of fresh red blood began to leak out from under Sheng Xie’s silvery scales. It was nearly at its limit, but to allow Ah Dai to complete the Heavenly Thunder Clash, it continued to release its energy tirelessly.
Large clouds began to gather in the dark sky. The entire Duke’s Mansion sank into an oppressive atmosphere. The roaring thunder sounds agitated the assassins, making their attacks more ferocious.
Xi Wen and the others had noticed the change in the situation after Ah Dai and Sheng Xie rushed out of the Duke’s Mansion. They immediately flew over. But when they landed on the wall, they found that the entire Duke’s Mansion was covered by a powerful Wind Barrier. Even with their power, they couldn’t break the powerful barrier for a while. Just when they were extremely anxious, Xi Wen noticed the change in Ah Dai on Sheng Xie’s back. As the Sect Leader of the Tian Gang Sword Sect, of course he recognized what technique Ah Dai was using. He immediately cried out, "Heavenly Thunder Clash. It seems that Ah Dai’s skill has really reached the Sword Saint Level, he can even use such a powerful attack."
Yan Shi was taken aback and said, "I’ve seen this technique before. Ah Dai used it when he was fighting against the Chief Judge Xuan Yuan of the Holy Church. Even he himself was seriously injured then. If it wasn’t for the Pope’s Divine Healing Technique, he would have probably died long ago. Master, if he uses such a powerful attack, won’t he also...like last time, even hurt himself..."
Xi Wen shook his head, saying, "No, that shouldn’t happen. During that incident you mentioned, Ah Dai merely advanced to the second level, but now he has already reached above the fifth level, even close to the sixth. The power of the Heavenly Thunder Clash is fully exerted, he must have a way to avoid harming himself. Even if he can’t, it’s too late for us to save him now."
Zhuo Yun suddenly exclaimed in surprise, "Look quickly, the defense barrier has disappeared." Indeed, as the dark clouds formed, the pale blue energy barrier enveloping the Duke’s Mansion had vanished.
Byinlog’s status in the Empire of Sunset City is equivalent to Larthas in the Empire of Tian Jing, both holding the supreme position. Even though he and the Duke have always been at odds, when the Duke sought his help this time, he had no choice but to take action. Upon receiving the Duke’s signal, he issued his most powerful wide-ranging defense magic, the Wind God’s Barrier, to envelop the entire Duke’s Mansion. At the same time, he discovered that the person the Duke was targeting was none other than Ah Dai, who spared his life at the royal palace last time. Although he had repaid Ah Dai’s favor, Byinlog still had an inexplicable fondness for Ah Dai. Naturally, he didn’t know that the Duke was the President of the Assassin’s Guild. When those assassins attacked Ah Dai after the barrier formed, he was surprised to find that these minions of the Duke were even more formidable than the strongest forbidden guards in the royal palace. For the first time, he clearly saw the full strength of the Duke’s forces. What surprised him even more was Ah Dai’s cultivation. Not only did he summon the legendary Giant Dragon, but he was also unscathed in the attacks of the Duke’s powerful minions, even taking down several of them. When Ah Dai unleashed the Heavenly Thunder Clash, Byinlog clearly sensed the power of the attack, especially when the Heavenly Thunder Clash later triggered celestial phenomena. Byinlog understood that if the celestial phenomena in the sky directed their attack towards the Duke’s Mansion, he would be the first one to suffer. His Wind God’s Barrier certainly wouldn’t be able to withstand the attack launched by the celestial phenomena. And under this force’s pull, he feared that he would lose his life right there. He had never like the Duke to begin with, so as soon as the dark clouds appeared, he decisively withdrew the barrier, flew up, and returned to the royal palace to report this development from a dark corner.
Xi Wen also noticed the disappearance of the barrier, grabbed Yan Li who was about to rush in, and said in a deep voice, "Now is not the time for us to go in. Once the Heavenly Thunder Clash breaks out, I’m afraid we won’t be able to withstand it either. Ah Dai won’t be in danger for the time being, let’s wait a bit longer, and take action after the Heavenly Thunder Clash has passed and when he is in danger." Although the Yan brothers were anxious, the leader of this mission was Xi Wen, so they had no choice but to wait patiently. Feeling the significant energy fluctuations in the air, they understood that Xi Wen was right. The power behind Ah Dai’s Heavenly Thunder Clash was definitely not something they could withstand.
Ah Dai had already noticed that Sheng Xie was about to lose his strength, but all his power was currently being used to control the thunderbolt of Yang Lei, so he couldn’t assist Sheng Xie. The only thing he could do now was to speed up the condensation of his power and allow the thunderbolt to exhibit its full power as soon as possible. As the Yang Lei’s suction force grew stronger, Sheng Xie suddenly felt a significant decrease in pressure. Some of the fighting energy released by the surrounding assassins was being absorbed by Ah Dai’s energy sphere. Those dark energies formed a gray ring around Ah Dai’s energy sphere, and the silver, purple, and gray energy made Ah Dai’s face appear exceptionally bizarre. Feeling the changes in the dark clouds in the sky, Ah Dai was overjoyed. He pushed out the glowing orb in his hand with all his might and shouted, "Thunderbolt, break!" The tri-colored energy sphere quickly began to spin, and the surging suction force attracted even more energy radiated from the assassins. Some of the smarter assassins sensed the danger and quickly withdrew, while the rest were surprised to find themselves being gradually drawn towards Ah Dai and Sheng Xie. Suddenly, the sky lit up, and a strikingly clear white lightning illuminated the sky. Under the reflection of the lightning, the faces of the assassins on the ground turned pale.
Ah Dai suddenly filled with an extreme sense of exhilaration, it seemed as though the vast energy in the air was entirely under his control. The heavy dark clouds had completely covered the sky, and after the lightning flashed, heart-shaking thunder rolled, "Na-crackle." Boom! A dazzling and immense blue-white lightning struck in the midst of dazzling silver orb accurately, game-changing energy erupted. Successfully summoning Yin Lei, the energy released by the fusion of Yin and Yang was enormous. Duke’s Mansion was completely enveloped by this substantial energy. When the thunderbolt was formed, Ah Dai quickly used the teleportation skill of Goris’s Wish, making two separate teleports to transport him and Sheng Xie two hundred meters away and avoiding the blast center of the thunderbolt.
All of Duke’s Mansion lit up as the white orb suddenly exploded from the point of Yin and Yang fusion, instantly devouring a radius of several thousand square meters. The assassins who had previously continued to attack Ah Dai and Sheng Xie were swallowed by the energy of the thunderbolt before they had a chance to react. After Ah Dai’s Life-evolution reached the fifth stage, the thunderbolt finally showed its maximum power. Ah Dai was clearly aware that his previous estimates were incorrect — the intensity of the thunderbolt was in no way inferior to the Netherworld’s Dark Envelope. The massive energy fluctuation was hard to resist even after he teleported himself and Sheng Xie two hundred meters away. The violet Life Evolution Shield, which was guarding him and Sheng Xie against the shock wave, was exerting so much pressure on him that he couldn’t help but spew blood. Sheng Xie was also affected to some extent, his massive body was driven backward by the shockwave, leaving a massive furrow on the ground and causing him to bleed even more.
The Shu Zhang was the first to retreat. Although he had anticipated the power of Ah Dai’s attack, he had not expected it to be so formidable. The unbearable light before him filled his heart with fear. A dark red light and gray gas completely enveloped him and Mie Feng. Fortunately, he retreated quickly. When the shockwave reached him, it had already weakened considerably, but even so, he still felt the immense shock. The reason Shu Zhang shielded Mie Feng from the attack was not out of kindness or due to any reservations about the Thieves’ Guild; Mie Feng was his last card. In order to be able to kill Ah Dai, he needed to protect this card. Given his sly and cunning nature, he naturally perceived the subtle relationship between Mie Feng and Ah Dai. In order to ensure his safety and achieve his goal, he could not allow Mie Feng to be harmed in the slightest. His initial complacency had completely vanished, and his blood-red eyes were flashing with ferocity. He was furious to the extreme.
Rumbling thunder still echoed continuously, and the white light within the Duke’s mansion gradually dimmed. The once picturesque residence had undergone a tremendous transformation. The ground inside thousands of square meters had sunk more than three meters deep. Everything such as the rockery, vegetation, and platforms had all disappeared under the destructive energy’s blow. Out of over a hundred assassins, only less than forty of the most powerful ones survived. However, most of them were still severely injured. Mie Yi, whose arms had been disabled by Ah Dai, turned into a pile of mush under the impact of the thunderbolt, putting an end to his sinful life. Many of the remaining assassins were also completely reduced to ashes by the vast energy. Such a result was something that no one could have anticipated.
Although the Heavenly Thunder Clash displayed exceptional power, compared to the previous two times, it also drained a significantly larger amount of Ah Dai’s energy. Almost seventy percent of the true Qi inside his body was eaten up by that world-shattering strike. Despite being the first to neutralize the deadly poison of Wu Er Sheng Water, Ah Dai’s power had significantly diminished after he got rid of the poison. He knelt halfway on the broad and sturdy back of Sheng Xie, panting heavily. His Gigantic Spirit Snake Armor had been stained a dark red colour by his own fresh blood. Even though his body was exceptionally exhausted, Ah Dai’s eyes were filled with indescribable excitement. The satisfaction of having obliterated most of the assassins in one blow brought a bloodthirsty glimmer to his eyes. Finally, he felt confident that he could eliminate all the assassins here.
Sheng Xie was as exhausted as Ah Dai. Earlier, to allow Ah Dai to have enough time to unleash the Heavenly Thunder Clash, it had done its utmost to withstand the assassins’ assault. Though it hadn’t consumed as much energy as when it used the Dragonspeak curse, it too had lost a majority of its fighting ability and was panting heavily as it stood on the ground.
The surviving assassins gathered around their leader. The ones who had survived this far were the pinnacle of the Assassin’s Guild elite. The previous Heavenly Thunder Clash had completely shaken their will, and no one dared to attack Ah Dai. The leader observed Ah Dai on Sheng Xie’s back with a cold expression and said, "Good, boy, you have done well indeed. I have underestimated you. I didn’t expect another Sword Saint to appear on the continent. I must admit, you’re strong, exceptionally so. If we were to have a one-on-one fight, I would find it hard to be your match. However, how much power do you still possess after that strong attack? What’s the use of being a Sword Saint when you are going to die by my hand? Although I have one question. How were you able to unleash such a powerful attack even after being poisoned by the Wu Er Sheng Water? Could it be that you weren’t poisoned at all? That’s impossible. My plan was executed flawlessly."
Ah Dai responded coldly, "You’re correct. I did fall victim to the deadly poison of Wu Er Sheng Water. However, Uncle Owen isn’t my only teacher. I also have another mentor - the most renowned alchemist on the continent, Goris. Don’t you remember how Uncle Owen survived for five more years after being poisoned by Wu Er Sheng Water all those years ago? That’s because I used the method developed by old Goris to temporarily suppress the onset of the intense poison. Using the same method, I naturally could use it on myself. Mr Leader, your death is approaching. Even if it results in my death here today, I’ll take you with me."
The leader suddenly burst into hysterical laughter,"You, with your current state? Even if you managed to suppress the effect of the Wu Er Sheng Water, it’s still coming at the expense of your own power. I don’t believe that you have any energy left to suppress it after launching such a strong attack. In your current state, I doubt you can even muster the strength for one final strike. I am curious to see how long you can hang on. Are you thinking of killing me? You’re not up to it."
A glimmer of hatred filled Ah Dai’s eyes. "You’ve been wreaking havoc in the continent for many years. The souls of those killed by the Assassin’s Guild will bless me. You think I’m out of fighting power? Feel free to try!" Although he was no longer under the threat of Wu Er Sheng Water’s deadly poison, the leader’s words rang true. He didn’t have much power left. By goading the leader, he hoped to strike at the root of all evil, taking the opportunity to avenge Uncle Owen. However, the leader was cunning. How could he fall for such an obvious taunt? In his eyes, nothing was more important than his own life. With a furious expression, he ordered, "Attack! Whoever kills him will be the Vice President of the Assassin’s Guild." The remaining assassins were veterans of the guild. Their many years as assassins had instilled a habit of absolute obedience to their leader. Moreover, the promise of huge benefits stimulated them. Despite fearing Ah Dai’s strength, the assassins still rushed to attack him.
Ah Dai let out a silent sigh in his heart. He had no idea about the leader’s actual strength. However, from what Uncle Owen had mentioned long ago, Ah Dai understood that the leader, staying in the position of the guild’s president for so many years, was not an easy opponent. In his current condition, it was indeed difficult to take down all the assassins. But, there was no turning back for him now. Seeing the assassins charging towards him, he stood up and shouted, "Sheng Xie, let’s get these bastards." Firmly gripping the handle of the Sword of Hades, he sprang into the air, plunging straight towards the remaining dozen assassins.
