Light Cultivation
Eps. 55 — Kill Killer
Jian Chen briefly observed the 7 subordinates of the black-robed leader, none stronger than him, the average of them only had cultivation in the lower 5th Stage Soul realm.
If in the academy people who are in the Soul Realm are always respected then in reality in the martial world especially adults, the Soul Realm is a common thing not even excessive referred to as basic cultivation.
Jian Chen turned his gaze back towards the black-robed leader who was now still kneeling holding his chest. Jian Chen smiled coldly before pouring a deep power on his sword.
“Half Moon Sword Technique..First Movement..” Jian Chen picked up the horses, the edge of his lips already appeared white steam. “Interests of Darkness Night!”
Jian Chen moved quickly when he was suddenly behind his opponent. Before all who saw digested the situation the head of the black-robed Leader had already slipped from his neck and rolled on the ground.
The black-robed subordinates seemed to be sculpting as they still did not understand the situation, but when his eyes saw Jian Chen's sword, they found blood dripping on the sword. Jian Chen had beheaded their leader.
The knees of the seven black robes immediately became limp when they knew their target was not an ordinary youngster, on the other hand Jian Chen who had already killed their leader did not immediately move but closed his eyes for a moment.
The sensation of killing a human was much different from killing a demon, Jian Chen's heart beat for a while before he exhaled slowly.
‘Ah, I almost forgot to feel this sensation, this feeling, this heartbeat…” Jian Chen opened his eyes and his gaze was still cold when he saw the headless corpse behind him fall lying down.
His golden eyes glowed for a few seconds before dimming back. Although it looks beautiful but in the eyes of 7 opponents it looks terrible.
“Dia.. She... She's a natural killer..”.
The seven black-robed people trembled in fear as Jian Chen expressioned flatly and did not bring out any guilt after killing.
However that made their hearts beat even more violently when Jian Chen's gaze pointed at all of them. Despite the seven against one, they did not dare to move forward, instead they immediately retreated and fled.
“Hm, you guys are here, don't expect to be back!” Jian Chen said flatly before moving quickly after everything.
Jian Chen's speed was above that of his opponent so it was easy to kill them one by one, much less Jian Chen was like teleporting when he suddenly appeared before his enemy and beheaded his opponent.
Within a few seconds, all were killed except one man.
Jian Chen left one of them to interrogate him, the last person was so frightened with tears dripping down.
“Explain now, who are you and how did you know I was the one to be?” Jian Chen asked in a cold tone.
“Ka-we are just contract killers, we were assigned by our superiors to kill you after knowing you are a rich man.”
“How did you guys know that I saved hundreds of thousands of gold pieces?”
“It...”
Jian Chen's eyebrows shot up at the person's explanation and it was a little unexpected who told him to kill him but on the other hand he understood everything.
“Master, please prepare me..” The black-robed person suddenly knelt holding onto Jian Chen's leg while asking for his mercy. However before he spoke more, Jian Chen's sword had already swung and killed him.
“I can't prepare you, if I were weak you might have killed me by now!” Jian Chen gave a cold snort, not feeling the slightest guilt after killing him.
According to Jian Chen they had already killed many people and that was already unexpressed by him he thought. Jian Chen had the principle to avenge what they had done.
The fight ended short-lived so when Jian Chen returned to the bonfire Ziyun and Meily had yet to awaken. The fight was also so far away that the two women could not hear it.
Jian Chen then woke Meily up, the sweet girl wriggling as she rubbed her eyes. He was a little misbehaved when he realized Jian Chen's face was so close to him.
“Ehm, Brother Jian, is it time for me to stand guard?” Meily kept her attitude to always calm down.
“Actually still not yet but now I have to go first,” Jian Chen scratched his head. “Nona Meily can I borrow your previous identification card. I will go to the city for a while and will be back before sunrise.”
“Sounds like something urgent?”
“Actually there's something I forgot to do there, take it easy, I'll come back here. ”
Meily nodded, giving the golden-coloured identification card. “This card is a special card from the Head of Lightning Dragon Province, no matter where you go there is nothing blocking you as long as you carry this gold card.”
The reason Meily had this golden card despite not being a family of the Provincial Chief was because of the Niu clan's proximity to the Chu clan. Meily's father gave this rare card to his beloved daughter.
The moment Jian Chen was about to take his identification, their skin accidentally touched. The girl hurriedly withdrew her hands, both of her cheeks suddenly flushed red like poached crabs.
On the other hand Jian Chen just did not notice that, his attention was fixed on the golden identification mark in his hand. Honestly, he just found out there is an identifier that is so extraordinary in use.
Jian Chen thanked him but before he left he told me to be careful of Meily because they were in the forest. The two must watch each other and neither can fall asleep.
Jian Chen then darted away leaving Meily, Jian Chen's movements were so fast that it was hard to see by the naked eye. If previously they had to take almost 4 hours to leave but when Jian Chen returned it took 2 hours to get to the city again.
The officers of the night chiff could not interrogate Jian Chen upon seeing the golden identification marks he had issued, the same as before, Jian Chen was treated with respect.
‘Hm... This card is very useful, it's a pity that I don't have it.” Seeing how miraculous a card could change one's attitude, Jian Chen was interested in obtaining it.
After being in the city did not take long Jian Chen arrived at the destination. Even though it was late at night but in downtown Qianshan was still alive, there were at least some residents who were still awake.
Jian Chen stopped at a silver-colored mansion that had three floors, his sword had already come out from the Ring of Space, the white sword fangs that had been cleaned up to look shiny it would soon be stained by the amount of blood.
The reason Jian Chen had gone to that magnificent mansion was because this place was the headquarters of those assassins earlier.
