Chapter Sixty-Seven: Instant Kill

  The electricity that stopped for a day has just come back, so the 2nd update will continue if time permits, otherwise today's update will be only one.

  Not long after the two entered the forest, a group of black-clad men appeared at the edge of the forest not far away.

  "Wow, that woman is really beautiful, no wonder Bossy would spend such a price to bring us all the way here." A sly-looking man in black clothes gazed at Elena who had already disappeared and swallowed his saliva.

  "Hmph, you know what, Bosley's got this idea that I wouldn't know about. The truth is, we just don't want to expose ourselves. Once we complete our mission, we'll make a quick getaway and no one will ever find us. That's the only way Bosley can rest easy, after all, they're from the Rose family, which isn't any weaker than the Chrysanthemum family." The scar-faced man patted the sly-looking man on the back.

  "Yes, what you said is right." Upon hearing Scar's words, everyone present voiced their agreement.

  "Alright, let's take action. After this is over, we can finally live without looking over our shoulders." The scarred man's words instantly ignited everyone's fighting spirit. Who doesn't want to live a good life?

  Lin Wu then dragged Elena in an irregular and disorderly manner through the forest, but that feeling of being stared at still hadn't disappeared. "Elena, we're being watched," Lin Wu finally said, stopping his body.

  "What should we do?" Elena asked.

  "Besides killing, is there another way?" Lin Wu drew out his long sword and swept a glance around.

  "Oh, want to get rid of us?" As soon as Lin Wu's words fell, several figures appeared on the surrounding trees.

  "Who are you? We don't seem to have any grudges." Lin Wu said in a low voice.

  "Yes, we don't have any grudges, but you do with our gold coins, so we can only send you on your way." Along with the words, a scarred man appeared in front of Lin Wu.

  These people were the black-clad men whom Posey had hired.

  Lin Wu sized up the scarred man, and his heart slightly relaxed. Although this person's strength had reached the peak of a high-level swordsman, he had not yet entered the realm of a great swordsman. As for the other black-clothed men, most of their strengths were at the mid-level swordsman level, with a few having high-level swordsman strength. As long as they weren't great swordsmen, Lin Wu wasn't afraid.

  However, the other side has many people now, and I also need to protect Elena, which makes things a bit tricky. Moreover, Lin Wu can't take down the top swordsmen in one go. If the remaining black-clad men attack Elena during this time, the consequences would be unthinkable.

  "Xiao Wu, don't worry about me. Although I'm a Light System user, I'm also a high-level magician." Elena knew she would be a burden to Lin Wu, so she took out her staff and said firmly.

  "No way." Lin Wu said with a drink, "I absolutely won't let you get hurt at all."

  "Alright, no more nonsense. I'll see you off together." The scar-faced man said coldly.

  "Head, didn't you say that woman couldn't move?" A man in black clothes asked in surprise after hearing the scarred man's words.

  Upon hearing such idiotic words, the scarred man suddenly slapped his subordinate flying with a loud slap and said fiercely: "Idiot!!"

  But Lin Wu was overjoyed when he heard this, since they didn't want to harm Eirina, with Eirina's high-level magic power, self-protection shouldn't be a problem, and in that case, he could also let go of his worries.

  "Take him down." the scar-faced man bellowed.

  Upon hearing the command, all the black-clad men rushed towards Lin Wu, while on Elena's side, there were only 2 black-clad men surrounding her, not attacking but just encircling her to prevent her from escaping.

  Lin Wu had already made his move, and after advancing to a high-level swordsman, this was also Lin Wu's first time taking action. The powerful mutated wind attribute Dou Qi gave Lin Wu a real sense of it.

  Facing a man in black, Lin Wu launched an uppercut, sending the opponent flying. He then jumped up and performed a mid-air slash, finishing with a thrusting stab. Settled!!

  With a crisp and swift movement, the fusion of Gale Cut and Storm Slash created an aura that was not only fast but also powerful. Those mid-level swordsmen were no match for him, and even high-level swordsmen couldn't withstand Lin Wu's skillful combos.

  "Damn it, this kid is quite a handful." Scarface couldn't help but curse under his breath after seeing Lin Wu take out several of his men with ease.

  The other party was just a high-level swordsman, how could his strength be so strong, especially that martial skill was so mysterious. "Get out of the way, I'll do it." The scarred man knew that those subordinates had also been sent to their deaths in the past, and he shouted loudly.

  When the boss spoke, those black-clothed men all gasped in unison. This kid had actually cultivated attribute Dou Qi, and his speed and power were abnormally strong. It was clear that the cultivation method he used was not ordinary either.

  Facing the scarred man, Lin Wu also had to be careful in his response. A high-level swordsman at the peak was not easy to deal with, especially when the opponent's combat experience far surpassed his own.

  The scar-faced man slowly walked towards Lin Wu, suddenly paying his respects to Lin Wu with a bow, which was the etiquette among swordsmen. Seeing this, Lin Wu was taken aback, and just at that moment, the scar-faced man suddenly launched an attack.

  "Despicable." Lin Wu thought to himself, but he was also on guard, so he calmly dodged the Scarred Man's attack.

  However, Lin Wu still underestimated the despicability of this scarred man. Just as Lin Wu dodged the scarred man's attack, a handful of powder suddenly scattered from the scarred man's hand, and Lin Wu felt his whole body numb upon contact with the powder.

  "Damn it!!" Lin Wu was so angry that his lungs were about to burst. He had seen shameless people before, but never anyone as shameless as this.

  "Kid, consider this a lesson from me. If you want to survive, learn to be ruthless." The scar-faced man sneered and swung his large sword at Lin Wu.

  At this moment, a sudden halo enveloped Lin Wu, and the numbness on his body disappeared instantly as soon as the halo appeared.

  "Blessing!!" The scar-faced man was taken aback, and immediately shifted his gaze to where Eirina was. The blessing spell was indeed released by Eirina, a 3rd-level light system magic that could dispel some negative states.

  "Not good." The scar-faced man was startled in his heart, but would Lin Wu give him this opportunity? The answer is of course no.

  Lin Wu's body flashed and dodged the Scarred Man's attack, suddenly appearing beside him.

  Suddenly stabbed!

  Without saying a word, Lin Wu swung his sword towards the Scarred Man's vital spot. At this moment, the Scarred Man swung out with one sword, and before he could retract his force, his rich combat experience suddenly appeared. As Lin Wu was about to stab him in the vitals, he violently twisted his body, barely avoiding the vital spot, but his chest couldn't avoid being slashed with a wound.

  Come on!

  Seeing himself unable to score with a sudden thrust, Lin Wu Li immediately launched his second move.

  The scarred man also caught his breath and saw Lin Wu's sword coming, so he immediately held up his sword to block it and then used the force to jump back quickly.

  "Hmph, it's not over yet." Just as the scarred man was still in mid-air and retreating, Lin Wudi suddenly turned around and charged forward fiercely.

  Aerial Slash!!

  The successive sword strikes added several more scars to the scarred man's body.

  At this time, the two of them also fell from mid-air, with several swords piercing their bodies. The scarred man couldn't help but feel a severe pain, fortunately his opponent's experience was still insufficient, allowing him to dodge the fatal blow.

  Earth Rend... Seismic Sword!!

  He landed, Lin Wu's mouth corner coldly smiled, the long sword swung, a fierce gust of wind blew up, after that mutated wind attribute Dou Qi amplified the ground split wave dynamic sword's power greatly increased, the scarred man at this moment had just landed and hadn't stood firm yet, was suddenly blown flying out by Lin Wu's ground split wave dynamic sword, the fierce gust of wind once again left several wounds on the scarred man's body.

  "It's over." Lin Wu then borrowed the strength of a nearby tree and jumped high.

  Silver Light Falling Blade!!

  Lin Wu transformed into a stream of light, shooting up to the sky and descending, while the scarred man was knocked down by the seismic wave of the sword at this time. Lin Wu's long sword instantly stabbed the scarred man, and then the powerful shockwave tore the scarred man apart.
