King of Assassins - Chapter 33

The Heavenly Dragon Eye came with the ability of flight.

As long as conditions were suitable, Gao Xuan could ride on the air currents and fly. This was similar to flying with equipped wings, but it had looser requirements with regards to airflow conditions. It was also more convenient for him to ride the air currents.

Gao Xuan leaped down from the 120-story-tall building, and he floated in the air for tens of meters before taking to the skies again on a rising air current.

His powerful mind power allowed him to easily detect the changes in the air currents. If he wanted to, he could fly in the air for the entire day.

However, there was no real momentum in this kind of flying. It wasn’t very fast, and it had its limitations.

The Heavenly Dragon Eye’s special ability of stealth and infiltration made Gao Xuan transparent. He blended in seamlessly with his environment.

Both optical detection or other scanning methods couldn’t detect Gao Xuan, who was soaring in the night sky.

There were too many flying devices these days. Personal flying devices were extremely common. They severely impacted the orderliness of the traffic in Mingjing CIty and posed a huge safety risk.

The government of Mingjing City had issued a ban on flying. Only people who obtained a flying permit could fly in the skies of Mingjing City.

For this reason, there were many detection devices in the skies of Mingjing City. They were there to prevent flying devices from disrupting order.

Gao Xuan wasn’t relying on a flying device that used external force, so he could ignore the variety of detection devices.

Although he’d been reborn, this was his first time flying with his own ability.

The Heavenly Dragon Eye converted Source Power into formless wings that allowed him to easily ride the air currents. The buildings, flying cars, and pedestrians below him all looked incredibly minuscule and ethereal.

Gao Xuan felt immense joy. This wasn’t the type of joy that came from chemical reactions in the brain after sex. It came from the freedom of soaring through the sky and dancing as he wished. It was a soothing joy that came from deep within the soul.

The Six-Winged Heavenly Cicada also vibrated its six wings and let out a joyful cry from his soul.

The Six-Winged Heavenly Cicada loved the air. It loved to fly. The emotions Gao Xuan felt when he was flying correlated with the Six-Winged Heavenly Cicada’s instincts.

In a situation like this, Gao Xuan’s spiritual perception became abnormally sensitive.

The world that he observed was covered in many lines of light. These lines of light had him at the center and formed a complex giant web.

The brightest and strongest line of light was connected directly with Yun Qingshang. That was the person he had the deepest connection with.

Yun Qingshang was sitting by the side of the pool and staring at the deep night sky. It was as if she were waiting for him to return.

Another line of light was connected to Wei Zhenzhen. Wei Zhenzhen was lying on his large comfortable bed, half-naked. Her expression was that of satisfaction and bliss. She was fast asleep.

Xu Yin, Jiang Xuejun, Wei Yue, Zhao Yunlong, An Hui, Peng Yuanshan, as well as everyone who he’d seen before or had dealings with appeared on this large web.

Gao Xuan could see what these people were doing from a mysterious mental connection.

However, this expended a great deal of Source Power and mind power. There wasn’t much point in doing it.

Gao Xuan blocked off all of the irrelevant people and only kept the line that was connected to Zhao Yunlong.

Through this invisible mental connection, Gao Xuan immediately locked onto Zhao Yunlong’s coordinates. He adjusted his posture midair, then flew toward the northwest like a rocket.

Zhao Yunlong hadn’t gone anywhere else today. He was at home reporting to his father, Zhao Feng, what had happened earlier today.

Zhao Feng, who was sitting on the sofa, had thick eyebrows and eyes that were set wide apart. He was tall and muscular. He had a gloomy face, and he looked exceptionally authoritative.

Zhao Yunlong had never seen Zhao Feng laugh before. He felt a mixture of fear and respect toward his father. He didn’t even dare to sit in front of him.

“Father, that Gao Xuan today was really creepy. He was so handsome it was unnatural. I don’t think any woman would be able to resist him.”

Zhao Yunlong lowered his head and said carefully, “The arrogant Wei Zhenzhen was dumped once by Gao Xuan. However, the second he waved his hand, she stuck to him like a puppy. I don’t think there’s any other way.”

“So you’ve thought about killing him?” Zhao Feng was a little disappointed. “If you killed Gao Xuan, is Wei Zhenzhen yours?”

Zhao Yunlong hung his head even lower. “She might become mine after I kill Gao Xuan, but I definitely won’t have a chance with her if we don’t kill Gao Xuan.

He paused for a moment before continuing, “It’s not like I like Wei Zhenzhen. I just want to get into her good books for the company and you.”

Zhao Yunlong thought about the indignance he felt being a lackey and became a little agitated. He raised his head and told Zhao Feng, “Even if I didn’t need to kill him to get Wei Zhenzhen, Gao Xuan made me feel humiliated, so he deserves to die.”

He then said with a ferocious expression, “After Wei Zhenzhen falls in my hands, I’ll make her a dog. I’ll turn her into a b*tch that anyone can toy with.”

Zhao Yunlong realized that he’d gone too far and glanced at Zhao Feng uneasily. “Father, I was a little out of line.”

However, Zhao Feng smiled. “A man has to be fierce. Only then can he accomplish great things.”

Zhao Yunlong didn’t expect to be praised by his father, and his back straightened a bit.

Zhao Feng sighed inwardly when he looked at his son like this. He still felt that his son was too childish. However, being fierce was a good thing, so he shouldn’t lecture him.

He asked Zhao Jun, who was by his side, “How are your investigations coming along?”

Gao Xuan wasn’t an important person, but they had to pay attention to his connection with Wei Zhenzhen.

It would be troublesome if they angered Wei Yue.

Zhao Jun bowed slightly toward Zhao Feng. He gently tapped on his smartwatch to access the screen. “Gao Xuan is from a tribe in the White Dragon Mountain Range and was recruited to the Mingjing University as an exception because he once helped their expedition team. He is currently living in Xu Yin’s house…”

Information concerning Gao Xuan’s identity was simple to obtain and straightforward. Zhao Jun had managed to thoroughly investigate him through an internal system.

“He isn’t connected to anyone important,” Zhao Jun concluded. “It wouldn’t be troublesome to eliminate him. The main concern is how the Yuanlong Company would react.”

Gao Xuan was Wei Zhenzhen’s boyfriend after all. No matter how much of a scumbag he was, they might make Wei Yue unhappy if they interfered and dealt with Gao Xuan.

Zhao Feng looked at Gao Xuan’s face on the screen. He had to admit that his son was right. This man was impeccably handsome. His closed eyes even gave him an indescribable evil aura.

He thought for a moment, then said, “Eliminate him. Deal with the girl by the surname of Yun too while you are at it. Make sure you do it cleanly.”

It was not a problem for them to kill people from the bottom rung of society. In this world, no one cared about the lives of such people.

Since they were going to take action, they had to make a clean job of it and not leave behind any traces.

Even though Wei Yue was a forceful person, she wouldn’t have a falling out with the Zhao family over a stranger.

As for what Wei Zhenzhen thought, that wasn’t important.

Zhao Jun nodded. As long as Zhao Feng gave the word, killing two kids would be incredibly easy.

Zhao Feng waved his hand. “All right. You guys can leave.”

Right after he said this, he suddenly became alert and instinctively took a few steps back.

As a Source Power Level Seven expert, Zhao Feng had abnormally quick reflexes.

Zhao Yunlong, who’d been standing next to Zhao Feng, was shocked. All he’d seen was a flicker, and then his father had disappeared from his side. He didn’t know what had happened.

Zhao Yunlong couldn’t even manage to react when the air in front of him suddenly rippled like water, making waves of transparent ripples.

A blood-colored blade of light shone out from within the transparent ripples and silently sliced past Zhao Yunlong, releasing streaks of blood-colored light around his throat.

On the other side, Zhao Jun reacted quickly. Even though he couldn’t see where his enemy was, he pulled out his gun without hesitation.

The blood-colored light made an abrupt turn and gracefully pierced into the middle of Zhao Jun’s forehead, stopping his movements.

In a fraction of a second, both Zhao Yunlong and Zhao Jun were killed by the God Slaying Sword.

Gao Xuan’s Source Power Level had reached Level Five, and his dexterity had received a huge boost. With 22 dexterity points, he was just as good as a Silver Grade fighter.

The God Slaying Sword didn’t have any weight. On the contrary, it could even allow part of its owner to become energy and greatly boost his speed.

Gao Xuan had concealed himself and charged into the house through the window. With Zhao Yunlong and Zhao Jun’s level, they never would’ve been able to detect where Gao Xuan really was.

However, Zhao Feng had quickly reacted. He had immediately dodged out of the way when he’d sensed that something was off. Thus, Gao Xuan had seized the opportunity to kill Zhao Yunlong and Zhao Jun.

Now that he had continuously activated the God Slaying Sword, he could no longer keep himself concealed. His transparent disguise gradually fell away and his body appeared out of thin air.

Zhao Yunlong and Zhao Jun erupted into an orb of blood mist at the same time and were gathered into the God Slaying Sword.

Zhao Feng, who was holding a longsword, had a look of shock on his face.

The other party had come into the house concealed and had taken out his son and personal bodyguard in rapid succession. Yet, he didn’t sense any murderous intentions from him, nor did this person have the venomous and sneaky aura that most killers had.

The other party stood with his sword in hand with the calm and relaxed attitude of a master. The blood-colored longsword that could turn people into a mist of blood was no ordinary item.

To think that he’d never heard of an expert with such distinguishing characteristics in all his life.

Zhao Feng had grabbed his longsword from the rack. However, he knew that he wasn’t a match for his opponent when he saw the other party’s sword technique.

As the boss of a company, it’d been a long time since he’d had to fight someone. To him, cultivating his Source Power was merely a habit.

Zhao Feng couldn’t care about his son who’d just been killed. He’d lost all courage to take action.

However, in this closed room, turning to run was tantamount to death.

He could only grip his sword tightly and try to stall for time. Zhao Yong was about to arrive!

This Level Eight swordsman was unrivaled in Mingjing City. Furthermore, he had one good habit. He always left fully geared whenever he left the house.

Zhao Feng saw that the other party wasn’t going to attack him and said in a hurry, “Anything can be discussed. There’s no need to attack.”

“Oh, kill yourself.”

Gao Xuan looked at Zhao Feng’s awful expression, then said, “No, nevermind. You’ll get blood all over the floor if you kill yourself, so I’ll send you on your way.”

He raised his sword and thrust it toward the middle of Zhao Feng’s forehead. There were no gimmicks behind his attack. He won in terms of speed and accuracy.

The blood-colored blade flickered and arrived in front of Zhao Feng.

Even though Zhao Feng had been ready to battle, he couldn’t dodge Gao Xuan’s blade, which was as fast as lightning. He couldn’t even manage to put up a fight.

However, Zhao Feng had built his entire empire from scratch. In the face of death, he was quick on his feet and decisive.

He chose to neither dodge nor block the attack. Instead, he raised his sword and thrust it at Gao Xuan’s chest. His attack was much slower than Gao Xuan’s, but he had a secret technique that could startle his opponent.

He was confident that his attack would hit Gao Xuan before Gao Xuan hit him. Even if he couldn’t kill him, his attack would still severely injure him.

Zhao Feng gathered all of his Source Power into his blade. The longsword glowed with cold light under the influence of the Source Power, and its aura was overbearing.

An illusory black dragon rose behind Zhao Feng.

The illusory black dragon roared silently at Gao Xuan and unleashed a strong mind attack.

Anyone else would’ve been immediately shaken by the roar of the black dragon.

However, Gao Xuan’s Heavenly Dragon Eye easily defended him against its roar, and he was completely unaffected.

Even without the Heavenly Dragon Eye, he wouldn’t have been affected by the roars of a mere black dragon with his 28 points of mind power.

The thrust of both swords was abnormally dangerous. The short distance between them gave neither person much time to react.

Zhao Feng didn’t manage to shock Gao Xuan with the black dragon’s roar that he’d activated, and he lost his opportunity to attack.

Gao Xuan’s God Slaying Sword pierced into the middle of Zhao Feng’s forehead.

The glowing longsword in Zhao Feng’s hand also managed to hit Gao Xuan’s chest. The blood-colored blade of light of the God Slaying Sword gracefully tilted and deflected the other party’s sword the moment it touched Gao Xuan’s chest.

The way Gao Xuan had retracted his sword was marvelous. It showed just how powerful his sword technique was.

Zhao Feng saw it all clearly. His heart was in despair. The other party’s sword technique was ten times stronger than his. His opponent was also immune to the black dragon’s mind attack. It was no wonder he was going to die.

However, where had a person with such masterful sword technique come from? And why did he want to kill him?

But Zhao Feng turned into a ball of blood-colored light and was absorbed into the God Slaying Sword before he could being to understand.

Gao Xuan silently sheathed The God Slaying Sword and sighed a little regrettably.

He’d thought that Zhao Feng would be a match for him. He didn’t expect him to die after a single hit. Zhao Feng might have been Level Seven, but his battle capabilities were far weaker than Zhou Lang’s.

However, the illusory black dragon was obviously an ability that came with the Black Dragon Token. To think that the other party was a member of the Black Dragon Association. He hadn’t expected that.

The Black Dragon Association was a very troublesome organization to deal with!

Gao Xuan thought for a moment, then waved his sword and left an “M” symbol on the wall.

That was a gruesome symbol that the Blood Deity Association left to scare their enemies. It bore a slight resemblance to an evil bat.

Anyone could draw the symbol, but the unique blood-scented aura in the symbol was a secret technique of the Blood Deity Association. Outsiders would not have been able to copy that.

Gao Xuan had been reborn and was very familiar with the technique.

Since Zhao Feng was a member of the Black Dragon Association, he’d get the Black Dragon Association to fight it out with the Blood Deity Association.

Gao Xuan had just drawn the symbol when he sensed something powerful rapidly approaching him. He was a little surprised. Had reinforcements come that quickly?
