Do You Guys Do No Homework Before Coming to Commit Assassination?

Chapter 10 • 1,767 words • 15 min read

In midair.

The black-clothed person’s hand holding the knife was trembling.

The knife had already left the scabbard by three inches, the cold light flashing suddenly, but it was also merely just this much.

No matter how he exerted force, the remaining knife body was like welded dead inside the scabbard, not moving a single thread.

A burst of invisible force squeezed and arrived from all directions, sealing dead all his movements, and even breathing became difficult.

He fiercely raised his head, looking toward Li Hanyi.

Beneath the moonlight, Li Hanyi stood with his hands behind his back, his robe sleeves lightly fluttering inside the night wind.

He looked to be no more than his early thirties, his eyebrows and eyes peaceful, like a school teacher.

But the things settled inside that pair of eyes made the black-clothed person’s entire body of blood turn cold.

“You… you are a celestial?

The voice was hoarse, carrying a fear that could not be masked.

Li Hanyi did not reply.

Princess Huai’an behind him, however, smiled, her laughter crisp: “Do you Japanese people do no homework before coming to commit assassination? You don’t even know who my teacher is?

She tilted her head, one word at a time:

“He is named Li, Han, Yi.

“Li Hanyi…

The black-clothed person’s pupils sharply constricted, his face beneath the mask turning deathly pale instantly.

The number two sword under heaven.

The peak of the Celestial Realm.

Let alone him, a single Extraordinary Realm, even if the strongest celestial elder inside the organization came, it would also be ten deaths and no life.

Li Hanyi finally opened his mouth, his voice very flat:

“A single Extraordinary Realm also dares to draw a knife against me.

The instant the sound of his words fell, the black-clothed person felt the space around his body start to twist and compress.

He wanted to shout, wanted to flee, yet could not manage to do even moving a single finger.

The last thing seen inside his field of vision was the finger lightly raised by Li Hanyi…

Then, darkness swallowed everything.

There was no sound, there was no light, and not even a bit of dust was left behind.

That black-clothed person of the Extraordinary Realm disappeared out of thin air just like this, as if he had never existed.

In the distance, the other black-clothed person who was currently locked in a fierce fight with A’Shui witnessed this scene.

His entire body gave a shiver, shouting toward the direction of the yard wall almost with a hiss: “Young Master! There is a celestial present! Quickly retreat!

Upon the top of the wall, that young man who had consistently been watching with cold eyes from the side heard the words, yet did not have any intent of retreat.

He stared at Jun Ao inside the yard, his gaze like a venomous snake staring firmly upon a prey.

Then, he moved.

His figure turned into a single afterimage, the knife light slashing down like a continuous bolt of silk, taking Jun Ao’s throat directly!

Right during the instant the knife edge was about to touch the skin—

A green-colored figure inserted across inside!

“Clang…!

The sword and knife crashed together, sparks exploding open, illuminating A’Qing’s cold and sharp side profile.

“Daring to assassinate the heir,” her wrist gave a shake, the sword momentum surging out like a tide, “seeking death!

The young man was shaken backward, a trace of astonishment flashing inside his eyes: “The Extraordinary Realm?

He stared at A’Qing for half a second, then his figure suddenly gave a sway, unexpectedly disappearing on the spot out of thin air.

It was not lightness kung fu, but was some kind of escape technique… the breath and figure all disappeared.

A’Qing, however, did not even look, stabbing a sword with a reverse hand toward the void of the left side.

“Clang…!

The sound of gold and iron chiming together rose again, and this time the sparks splashed even higher.

The place the blade tip stabbed into, ripples like water waves surged up in the air, and the young man’s figure tumbled out from the void with staggering steps.

He lowered his head to take a glance at his chest.

The clothes were stabbed through, revealing the dark-golden soft armor underneath.

The blade tip left a white point upon the soft armor, yet failed to stab through.

“Humph…” The young man stood his figure firm, a playful teasing carrying inside his voice, “Interesting. Never expected that a tiny Zhennan Prince’s Mansion would not only have two Extraordinaries, but unexpectedly even have a single celestial…

He paused for a moment, his gaze sweeping past Li Hanyi: “However tonight, the person I want to kill, you guys cannot protect.

A’Qing’s eyebrows knitted tightly.

She could see clearly and cleanly that this young man only had the Ninth Realm cultivation.

But the sword strike just now, under her urgency of situation, she used her full strength, yet it was unexpectedly completely blocked down by that soft armor, with not even many marks left behind.

“Miss A’Qing step back.” Li Hanyi’s voice came.

He brought Huai’an to land inside the yard, his gaze falling upon the soft armor in front of the young man’s chest, a trace of understanding flashing inside his eyes.

“The Amaterasu Divine Armor.” Li Hanyi said slowly, “One of the three great supreme treasures of Japan, it is unexpectedly upon your body.

A’Shui at this time had also resolved her opponent, skimming back into the yard, hearing the words and asking: “The Amaterasu Divine Armor? What is that?

“An ancient defensive Dharma artifact.” Li Hanyi explained, “The legend goes that it was accidentally obtained by the first generation Emperor of Japan, and can block the full strength blow of the Third Realm of the Celestial Realm. Never expected… it would unexpectedly be in the hand of a young man.

Jun Ao stared at that piece of soft armor, asking suddenly: “Are you a person of the Japanese Imperial Family?

The young man smiled a bit, not admitting and also not denying.

He looked toward Li Hanyi, his tone still calm and composed: “Li Hanyi, I know you are formidable. But today I want to kill Jun Ao, and you cannot stop it.

Before the sound of his words fell, his figure disappeared once again.

This time, even his breath was completely concealed.

“Be careful!” A’Qing shouted severely, the sword light protecting Jun Ao’s entire body circumference.

Li Hanyi, however, stood on his spot without moving, only raising his hand, his index finger lightly pointing once in the air.

“Hum—!

The space of the entire yard gave a light shake.

The next instant, the young man’s figure was forced to manifest its form at a place three feet behind Jun Ao…

It was not that he wanted to manifest his form, but rather… his concealment technique had lost its efficacy!

His face finally changed color.

“Escape!” He let out a low shout, suddenly crushing a single jade talisman inside his hand.

The jade talisman exploded open, black fog spreading in all directions.

A sharp sound of breaking through the air came inside the fog, and the young man’s figure turned into a single streak of blood light, rushing up to the sky violently.

Li Hanyi’s gaze turned cold, sword qi bursting forth from his fingertips.

But that streak of blood light’s speed was too fast, disappearing at the far end of the night sky in the blink of an eye.

The sword qi was too late to pursue, only tearing open a long, long rift inside the cloud layer.

“The Blood Escape Technique.” Li Hanyi withdrew his hand, his eyebrows knitting lightly, “His identity is not simple.”

The yard was silent for a time.

Huai’an ran to Jun Ao’s side with quick steps, sizing him up from top to bottom: “Are you okay?”

Jun Ao shook his head, his gaze still watching the night sky.

Inside his sea of consciousness, the voice of the Myriad Soul Banner rose: “That kid… a Ninth Realm at twenty years old. This generation of Japan has produced quite an extraordinary figure.”

Twenty years old, the Ninth Realm.

Jun Ao clenched his fists tight.

He is also twenty years old this year, but three months ago he was still a “useless person.”

Even if he has true qi now, it is only the Third Realm.

The gap is too big.

“Heir,” Li Hanyi turned his body around, his gaze falling upon Jun Ao’s body, “you just now… used true qi?”

The moment these words came out, every single person looked toward Jun Ao.

Jun Ao was silent for a brief moment, nodding his head.

Huai’an’s eyes stared wide: “You, don’t you have no dantian? Where did the true qi come from?”

This was a question that every single person wanted to know.

Without a dantian, one could not convert spiritual qi into true qi, this is common knowledge of the martial path.

Jun Ao looked at her, his tone flat and dull: “This is my secret, why should I tell you?”

“You…” Huai’an was choked with anger, “Just now if it weren’t for Teacher striking out, you would already be dead!”

Jun Ao did not object.

What she said was correct.

If there were no Li Hanyi, relying solely on A’Qing and A’Shui, perhaps they could block those two Extraordinary assassins, but that young man wearing the Amaterasu Divine Armor… he could not block him.

The shadow of death enveloped down this genuinely for the first time.

Jun Ao suddenly felt that he himself was too weak.

Weak to the point where he could not even manage self-preservation, weak to the point where he needed others to protect him desperately, weak to the point where…

He did not match this identity of the “Zhennan Prince’s Heir.”

He raised his head, looking toward A’Qing and A’Shui:

“Pack up a bit.”

A’Shui froze: “Where is the heir going?”

Jun Ao turned his body around to walk toward the inside of the room, his voice drifting back inside the night wind:

“The Southern Border.”

“To kill the bastards.”

Four characters, spoken calmly, yet carrying a burst of absolute determination that cuts iron and cleaves gold.

Every single person inside the yard was stunned.

Huai’an wanted to say something, but had her shoulder lightly pressed down by Li Hanyi.

Beneath the moonlight, Jun Ao’s back figure was held very straight, but every single person could sense that something inside this young man’s heart…

Had broken through the earth and come forth.
