Lin Cheng held his breath and gripped the hilt of his saber tightly.

Under the mottled moonlight, Lin City could vaguely see that this figure looked somewhat familiar. It was obvious that this person was someone he knew.

"An assassin sent by Tan Yulan?"

A cold light glinted in Lin Cheng's eyes. "Or maybe …" "Chen Yongwen?!"

Under Lin City's gaze, the silhouette paused for a few breaths' time as he entered the room. After which, he waved his hand and a strange fragrance filled the room.

"Poison!"

As soon as Lin Cheng smelled the fragrance, he couldn't help but shudder. He immediately held his breath and raised the saber in his hand slightly, causing the muscles in his body to tense up.

The first move of the "Scorching Sun Saber" was ready to go!

Lin City had long since learned to no longer have any mercy and mercy towards their enemies. He knew that in this world where the strong preyed on the weak, if he were to be lenient towards his enemies, the one who would be in trouble would be himself.

A few breaths later, the figure in the room raised the dagger in his hand, stepped forward and stabbed the bed in front of him.

"Damn it!"

Lin Cheng was infuriated. This person actually wanted his life!

At the same time, his heart shivered. This person was definitely an expert. This person opened the door and entered the room, releasing a poisonous substance with a strange fragrance. When he suddenly made his move, there was almost no sound from the beginning to the end!

Lin Xing was secretly rejoicing in his heart. If not for the fact that he had been practicing his saber arts in his room and had set up a mechanism outside his door, he would have most likely fallen for this person's Dao!

"Shua!"

The dagger quickly stabbed towards the bed, and with a 'pu' sound, the incomparably sharp dagger instantly pierced into the bed, and even directly into the hard bed.

When the dagger stabbed down, that person suddenly retreated. Clearly, that person had realized that there was no one on the bed.

"Swoosh!"

Right at this moment, a sharp sound of breaking through the air suddenly sounded out. This person only felt a fierce gust of wind suddenly attack from behind him, bringing along an endless chill that instantly caused him to be incomparably shocked.

He subconsciously wanted to dodge, but when he retreated, he was too weak to change direction. In a moment of desperation, he shouted, "Roar!"

In the next moment, he mustered all the elemental energy in his body and stomped heavily on the ground, borrowing the rebound force from the ground to forcefully change directions.

However, at this moment, the blade that was as fast as lightning had already arrived in front of him. As he frantically circulated his elemental energy and forcefully changed his direction, the sharp longblade also followed behind him like a shadow.

The blade was already within reach!

"Pfft!"

The saber pierced through the palm of that figure, causing him to immediately let out a low roar of pain. "A crafty kid, how dare he set up a sneak attack here!"

Chen Yongwen!

Cold light shone in Lin Cheng's eyes. This was Chen Yongwen's voice, and the low roar carried a sense of anger and gloominess that he instantly recognized.

"Swoosh!"

Lin Cheng did not waste any time on nonsense. He suddenly took a step forward, and the Seven Stars Cloud-Stepping Steps was displayed at the speed of lightning. The movement technique was extremely fast, and when combined with the insane activation of his Origin Energy, it erupted into a terrifying blade, stabbing towards the distressed Chen Yongwen!

Chen Yongwen didn't expect Lin City to be so fierce and violent. Not even giving him the time to catch his breath, he once again launched an attack.

Moreover, that speed was so fast that it caused his heart to turn cold!

In the blink of an eye, the blade had reached his chest!

"Hah!"

Chen Yongwen shouted once again as he frantically circulated the elemental energy in his body, using all his strength to dodge this blade attack.

However, Lin Cheng's speed was just too fast. In that instant, the blade had already reached his vitals, and the sharp blade had almost cut his clothes.

"Die!"

Chen Yongwen felt his soul leaving his body. Almost subconsciously, he once again used his hand to block that shocking blade attack. At the same time, his other hand also struck out!

"Pfft!" A loud sound was heard.

This blade, without reservation, cut into the hand that Chen Yongwen stretched out to block.

After the edge of the blade, the muscles and bones were chopped off like tofu. Chen Yongwen's left hand was cut off at the wrist!

"Shua!"

At the same time, Qin Nan executed the Cloud Stepping Steps with all his might, his body seemingly leaving behind an afterimage as he moved to the side, because Chen Yongwen's other hand, that palm, was already approaching him.

However —

After all, Lin City's speed had yet to reach its limit, and Chen Yongwen's speed was also not slow in the slightest. This palm attack landed on Lin Cheng's shoulder.

"Bam!"

Lin Cheng only felt his entire body shudder as if he was struck by lightning. He was struck by a terrifying force and was forced a few steps back.

"Deng deng deng deng!"

The huge force forced Lin Cheng back several steps, only stopping when his back slammed into the wall. Just as he stood there, he felt a surge of Qi and blood in his chest, and a fishy sensation in his throat. He opened his mouth, and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Lin City was shocked. Expert!

This Chen Yongwen was actually an expert. Just from that palm attack, he had been hit by it. Not only was his entire arm in pain, but he also suffered internal injuries.

He immediately understood, the gap between the two of them was too huge, this Chen Yongwen was most likely an expert of the Arterial Circulation Realm!

Lin Cheng's heart sank. He had never thought that Chen Yongwen would actually be a powerhouse of the Arterial Circulation Realm. If not for the fact that he had discovered Chen Yongwen's intention to harm him and had obtained the upper hand, he would have already become a corpse.

Even now, Lin City knew that his situation was definitely not good!

He quickly took the opportunity to take out a porcelain bottle from his bosom. He flicked the bottle stopper and poured all of the pills into his mouth, regardless of how many were in the bottle.

Regardless of whether it was the Returning Energy Pill or the Three Treasures Pill, both were of great use to him now.

The moment the pill entered his mouth, Lin Cheng immediately felt reassured. The Energy Recovery Pill could help him quickly recover his elemental energy!

"Ugh!"

Lin Cheng was injured by this palm, the bones in his shoulder seemed as if they were going to break, and Chen Yongwen on the other side was also in a terrible state. His left hand was directly cut off, and that heart-wrenching pain caused him to groan in pain.

"Sly and cunning thing!"

Chen Yongwen tightly grasped his severed wrist with one hand, and was also being leaned against the wall, heavily gasping for breath, with a vicious look in his eyes, he growled, "You actually prepared for this!"

His good hand was about to reach into his bosom, but at this moment, Lin Cheng suddenly made his move.

"Shua!"

Lin Cheng did not say a single word as he chopped down with his saber once more!

Chen Yongwen's strength was far higher than his, so naturally, he wouldn't give Chen Yongwen the chance to rest. If he didn't take advantage of the time when Chen Yongwen's forces were being cut down, once Chen Yongwen recovered his breath, he would definitely be the one to die!

"Damn it!"

Seeing Lin Cheng's sharp blade coming at him again, Chen Yongwen no longer cared about yelling and cursing, and hurriedly dodged.

However, Lin Cheng's speed was extremely fast, especially his strange movement technique. It was so fast that it could actually catch up to his speed. The sharp long sabers unceasingly slashed at him, causing him to be in an extremely sorry state.

The severe pain of his wrist being cut off caused Chen Yongwen's forces to suffer a great loss. Lin Cheng did not give him the chance to swallow the elixir, which made Chen Yongwen almost go crazy, but he had no other choice.

Lin Cheng's speed was too fast, and his sabresmanship was too overbearing as well. Surprisingly, he had gained the upper hand the entire time, forcing Chen Yongwen into a state of panic, exhausted to the point of being unable to react.

Chen Yongwen was incomparably shocked!

He really did not expect Lin City's strength to be this strong, especially with Lin City's strange movement technique and overbearing saber technique. This caused Chen Yongwen to be both frightened and angry at the same time!

The two of them were engaged in a fierce battle. Lin Cheng was frantically attacking and Chen Yongwen was awkwardly dodging. The two of them were very clear that they could not afford to be careless at this moment. Otherwise, they would die!

He could only fight with his life on the line!

But at this moment, Chen Yongwen was flustered and exasperated. Relying on his higher cultivation than Lin City, he could barely avoid Lin City's crazy attacks. However, the injuries on his arm caused his strength to be greatly weakened.

Chen Yongwen was shocked and angry. If they continued fighting like this, he would only get weaker and weaker. In the end, there was only one result, and that was that he would be beheaded by Lin Cheng!

"Little bastard, die!"

Chen Yongwen suddenly roared loudly.

In the next moment, he suddenly stopped his dodging steps. Not only did he not retreat, he even rushed towards Lin Cheng. He wanted to pay the price of killing Lin Cheng with one palm strike!

"This is the time!"

Lin Cheng let out a loud roar in his heart as he swallowed a whole bottle of Returning Energy Pills, causing his body to still be filled with strong Yuan Power. In that instant, he frantically pushed the Yuan Power in his body to the limit.

Tightening his muscles, the Seven Stars Cloud-Stepping Steps reached its extreme speed. He withdrew his saber, turned to the side, and slashed out!

The first move of the "Scorching Sun Saber", deboning!

"Pfft!" Puff! "Pfft!"

Under Chen Yongwen's panic-stricken gaze, the long saber in Lin Cheng's hand turned into a streak of white light!

It was as fast as lightning!

"Pfft!"

As the final blade came slashing down, Lin Cheng abruptly retreated, leaning against the wall as he panted violently. At this moment, his face was already completely pale, and his body was completely empty. His elemental energy had been completely depleted!

However, when his gaze landed on Chen Yongwen, he was instantly shocked!

At this moment, Chen Yongwen was standing on the spot, but his face was no longer the same. Half of his body had already turned into a bloody man, from his shoulder to his ribs, revealing eerie white bones!

Eviscerate!

Half of Chen Yongwen's blood and flesh had been completely sliced into white bones. Even his heart was faintly visible!

"…" Shock, disbelief, shock, unwillingness … Countless complex emotions flashed through Chen Yongwen's eyes. Under the mottled moonlight shining into the room, it was so clear!

He opened his mouth, but no sound came out. This was because his neck had been cut in half!

After a few breaths of time, Chen Yongwen's body shuddered and he fell onto his back!

"Bam!"

Chen Yongwen's body fell onto the ground, twitching violently for a few moments, and then he stopped breathing.

Chen Yongwen, dead!
