A little late for someone who won't be coming back

  "Are you going to kill us?" The young man in golden clothes first pretended to be surprised, then burst out laughing, and with a pretentious attitude, looked at the people on his left, then at those on his right, before sneering: "Did everyone hear that? He said he can kill all of us? Did you hear that?! I'm so scared! Don't kill me, okay?..."

  "Haha!"

  "Daydream!"

  "Looking for death!"

  "Shen Yuan, I think he's still asleep!"

  ……

  After a brief astonishment, the other seven inner disciples also came to their senses, and their attitude towards Li Ke also became much tougher. After all, no matter what, they had an absolute advantage in numbers.

  Moreover, Li Ke was only a soldier who had just reached the Refining Soldier Realm, and his soldier soul was still the lowest grade of seven-grade soldier soul!

  "This little soldier isn't very talented, is he? How could he kill Mu Ben with just one knife?"

  "He just ambushed, if it wasn't an ambush, could he have beaten Mu Ben?"

  "Exactly! Now let's have a fair fight, either of us has more power than him, what are we afraid of?"

  "Even if we take a step back, Shen Yuan is still here. He's a genuine fourth-level cultivator of the Refining Soldier Realm. One level higher and he'd be an elder of our sect!"

  ……

  The golden-robed youth known as Shen Yuan's face suddenly turned gloomy, his eyes gleaming with a fierce light. His right hand clenched into a fist, and in the center of his palm, a swirling orange mist churned out, emitting a sharp aura that made people's hair stand on end.

  Shen Yuan sneered at Li Ke, "Li Ke, you disregarded the fraternal bond of our sect and brutally killed my junior brother, Mu Ben. Today, I will take revenge for Double Blade Sect!"

  After that, the orange mist in Shen Yuan's hand condensed into a solid form, which was an orange sixth-grade silver-faced ghost head knife soul. This silver-faced ghost head knife was four feet seven inches long, with a snow-white blade. A ghost head with long teeth and a grinning mouth swallowed the blade into its mouth. The overall shape had been refined to nine-tenths of its true form, which was the characteristic of the fourth stage of the Refining Soldier Realm.

  "Kneel down now, you little brat! Call me 'good old dad' ten times and I'll make your death a bit more pleasant!" Shen Yuan burst into loud laughter. He usually enjoyed bullying those famous disciples, liked to trample them under his feet, and use his Soul Silver Ghost Head Knife to leave scars on their bodies, accumulating bloodstains, like a devil.

  Moreover, Shen Yuan also liked to force those nominal disciples to call him "dad", as if this gave him a sense of accomplishment.

  Li Ke's face suddenly sank, and the killing intent in his eyes became even more resolute.

  His father was someone that no one could evaluate, Shen Yuan couldn't do it, the entire continent's millions of soldiers couldn't do it, and even the Blade Li family, one of the five great divine families of the Divine Land, didn't have this right.

  This is the biggest reverse scale on Li Ke's body!

  Touch it and you will die!

  "Shen Yuan, you're finished!!"

  Li Ke's face was calm as water, and he said lightly.

  "You're just a useless piece of trash, yet you dare to spout such arrogant nonsense! You're asking for death!"

  Shen Yuanshen was enraged, let out a loud roar, and the silver-faced ghost head knife in his hand emitted a brilliant light. A burst of knife energy surged forth, like a group of ghost heads, baring their teeth and brandishing their claws as they charged towards Li Ke to kill him.

  Ghostly Blade Technique - Hundred Ghosts Night Raid!

  A sword's energy howls, and a hundred demons are born.

  "A minor skill!"

  Li Ke snorted coldly, and the flying dagger in his hand suddenly appeared with a red glow, shining brightly like a crimson moon, only to vanish into thin air as if it had disappeared out of nowhere.

  "Haha... Trashy soldier soul is just trashy, it's already broken before even making a move!" Shen Yuan burst out laughing at the sight, thinking that Li Ke's soldier soul was too pathetic and had automatically dispersed without even taking action.

  "Really?"

  But at the same time, Li Ke's faint voice suddenly came over.

  Immediately——

  "Hmm hmm hmm hmm……"

  Like a sharp blade slicing through the surface of fruit, each cut was fatal. The crimson crescent moon sliced those orange skulls that were pouncing on Li Ke into strands of foam in an instant.

  Vanish into thin air!

  "What?" Shen Yuan's face changed, and he stared at Li Ke in extreme shock. But before he could react, Li Ke was like a yellow dragon, with layers of illusions, charging towards him, making a frontal assault.

  "Brush!"

  The sword rises, the knife falls!

  "Plop!"

  Li Ke struck again, his skill was divine, and the knife directly pierced Shen Yuan's chest. The blade was cold, stirring up a burst of bright red blood flowers. His face calm, he looked at Shen Yuan and said lightly: "Remember, don't call yourself 'old man' in front of me!"

  Sound falls, sheathe your sword!

  "Pong!"

  Shen Yuan's body heavily fell to the ground, on the verge of death, his eyes were wide open, he never thought that he would be killed so easily by Li Ke, all of this happened in an instant, "Hiss!" The sword soul's light in his hand slowly dissipated with Shen Yuan's death.

  Li Ke's move was too fast, with his Earth-level mid-grade movement technique "Fish Nine Dragon Change", he was as swift as lightning. Adding to that, his Mystic-level top-grade flying knife technique "Godly Three Knives" made him absolutely ruthless in killing people like they were mere grass.

  He beheaded Shen Yuan, Li Ke used two of the three divine slashes, one slash came and went without a trace, one slash divine and one slash, Xuan-level superior knife law, this is what the Double Knife Sect has never had. Although Li Ke's military soul level was low, his strength was also lower than Shen Yuan by two levels, but relying on Youyu Jiulongbian and Shenglai San Dao, beheading Shen Yuan who had tempered out two more segments of military soul was still not a big problem.

  "What? Did Shenyuan also die?"

  "How is this possible?"

  "Am I seeing things?!"

  "This..."

  The other six inner disciples were shocked, one by one, their eyes wide with amazement. If Li Ke's previous killing of Mu Ben was due to a sneak attack, then now, facing Shen Yuan head-on and beheading him, this was truly a frontal confrontation!

  Shen Yuan's corpse lay on the ground, his eyes wide open in anger, refusing to close even in death.

  That says it all!

  The reality before their eyes made several of them involuntarily start a cold war, staring at each other, and almost everyone's eyes were filled with a terrified color.

  "Run quickly!"

  "He's been killed!"

  It was unclear who shouted first, but soon several others followed suit, and the six of them almost simultaneously turned around and ran out in all directions.

  Li Ke saw this scene and had no feeling in his heart, he just muttered to himself: "I said it! Not one will be left!"

  As he spoke, Li Ke's body suddenly flashed, his legs whirring, a swift kick to the heart of one of them, precisely the "Straight Heart Piercer" move from the Whirlwind Legs technique. A loud "Pong!" sound was heard as that person fell to the ground with a huge hole in their chest, blood splashing everywhere. At the same time, the Flying Soul Knife shot out, red light scattering in all directions, five trails of bloody light shooting towards the other five inner sect disciples.

  "Pffft!" "Pffft!" "Pffft!" "Pffft!" "Pffft!"

  Five directions, five flying knives, yet the same place!

  Li Ke draws his sword, and it's a killing move!

  All five of them, not one will be left behind!

  All five inner disciples covered their throats, bright blades emerged from behind their throats and stabbed into the front of their throats.

  "Two-piece swimsuit!"

  Before his death, one person saw clearly that there were two segments of the Flying Dagger Soldier's soul on his throat, and was extremely shocked.
