839 Chapter 839

A series of strange sounds echoed from within Aiden's body. A mighty roar coming from a dragon resounded all around the battlefield.

Bright golden luster burst forth and covered all towards the mighty firmament above!

The small child-like figure of what was previously the burly man disappeared and in its place was a mighty figure that could faintly be seen as it was shrouded with an unknown source of power. A pair of golden exotic eyes shone forth with a frightening shimmer.

It was cold, sinister, and filled with endless killing intent!

*PZZT!*

The paragons as well as the grandmaster guardians standing aside and the various martial artists watching from afar were shocked and gasped!

Hart You and the other three shuddered.

In that instant, they had an illusion that the 'human' before them who was surrounded by this strange otherworldly energy seemed like he was about to devour them alive!

"You guys really think that you can kill me with your pathetic skills?!"

In that endless golden lustrous light, Aiden's deep voice sounded, sending chills down everyone's spine as though he came from the primordial era where thousands of races stood mightily amidst torrential divine force.

Invoking his draconic origin, Aiden took on his true Ancient Draconic form, causing his strength and speed to explode!

"How amusing! You're still trying to escape?!"

Suddenly, Aiden's voice sounded in the Faceless Assassin's ears. It was sinister and right beside him!

As if a figure was shifting in front of him, the Faceless Assassin paused in his tracks hurriedly.

Unknowingly, Aiden had already arrived before him with an imposing aura, blocking his escape path!

It was too fast!

Even with the Faceless Assassin's calm personality, at that moment, he felt a series of chills. His expression changed slightly and his dead fish eyes flickered with a hint of panic.

A mighty and tall figure stood up slowly from the ground, surrounded by rumbling demonic energy. The illusion of an ancient creature was formed, baring its sharp teeth and claws in a menacing, life-like manner! Its form resembled vaguely that of a bareskin humanoid, but with deep, thick scales acting as a natural layer of armor around its body.

It was as though countless stars were revolving around a moon, shrouding the gigantic ancient demon in the center – Aiden's eyes were deep and pitch-black as he looked down at the Faceless Assassin.

It was a cold, taunting gaze.

It was the same way an emperor was looking at an ant that was struggling to escape!

*PZZT!*

Instantly, the Faceless Assassin's heart skipped a beat and he felt chills run down his spine.

The next moment, Aiden suddenly reached out with his gigantic palm that covered the skies, grabbing at the Faceless Assassin's head with a torrential aura.

The Faceless Assassin was extremely swift to react and he raised his sword while crushing a protection artifact at the same time. The blade of his sword quivered like a snake, emitting a sinister and chilling aura.

To him, no matter what, Aiden was fighting barehanded after all.

There was no way a person's body could defend against the sharpness of an artifact weapon!

All of a sudden!

The Faceless Assassin's pupils constricted.

'',

From the massive ethereal golden palm that was shrouded over his head, dagger-like fingernails suddenly shot out from its fingers, shimmering coldly like swords and sabers!

Those fingernails looked like the claws of an ancient demon that were indestructible!

In the blink of an eye, five fingernails struck the Faceless Assassin's thin sword.

*BUZZ!*

As though it was coiled by a venomous viper, the Faceless Assassin's sword struggled repeatedly but it could not break free and could only buzz and tremble.

With a loud snap, the sword shattered!

There was a commotion.

A supreme-grade artifact weapon was crushed by Aiden's bare hands, turning into dim shards that scattered onto the ground near the Faceless Assassin's feet.

The next moment, the Faceless Assassin's vision swiftly darkened and he lost consciousness in mere seconds.

His protection artifact was as fragile as hot butter against Aiden's gigantic hand.

The five fingernails pierced the barrier produced by the protection artifact instantly and landed on the Faceless Assassin's head with a dull sound.

By the time Aiden retracted his hand, there were five bloodied holes on the Faceless Assassin's head, oozing out with a white, gooey liquid.

The Faceless Assassin's dead fish eyes no longer lit up as he collapsed while standing upright, his life snapped away.

Just like that, the feared and respected demonic heir, and well-known assassin of the Hidden Lotus Sect was killed right beneath the Ancient One's Palace!

Everything went silent.

A paragon had just died.

It did not matter how strong or how glorious the Faceless Assassin was prior to this. At this moment, he was no different from one of the lifeless corpses under the Ancient One's Palace.

Talents that fall are eventually forgotten by the masses.

To be fair, not every sect among the major factions have sent in elder Guardians.

Corpse Poison Sect, the so-called 'evil' sects' Pure Maidens Sect as well as the Hidden Lotus Sect did not send in Guardians.

To the Hidden Lotus Sect, the Faceless Assassin would definitely be able to roam freely and undefeated across the underworld. Even if he failed in his assassinations, he could flee far away.

Throughout history, there had been demonic heirs of Hidden Lotus Sect who have failed, but there was never one that was killed.

Right now, there was no Guardian Elder from Hidden Lotus Sect to take revenge for the death of the Faceless Assassin.

Aiden did not stop after killing the Faceless Assassin. Taking huge strides, he arrived before Zenith Sect's Bair Yohren in the blink of an eye and smiled sinisterly with a cruel glint.

'This is bad. He wants to silence me!' Bair Yohren was scared out of his wits as his blood flowed so quickly that his heart almost exploded!

When Aiden shrank into a meatball earlier to avoid the four killing moves, Bair Yohren's questions were all answered.

If one could shrink to that state, wouldn't it be extremely easy for this person to change his figure and alter his appearance?

Despite the fact that he was faced with eight other paragons, this person ignored them and rushed right in front of him.

Bair Yohren was even more certain now that this was the gray-robed martial artist!

As the demonic heir of Zenith Sect, Bair Yohren was able to compose himself instantly and swung his Zenith Saber, slashing towards the incoming Aiden while yelling.

'This chapter is updated by Nov elB i n',

"Y-You! Y-You are…"

"Die!"

Before Bair Yohren could complete his sentence, the burly man roared.

The distance between them was too little.

Bair Yohren shuddered violently and he swallowed his words back from the shock. He lost his hearing and blood oozed out from his ears – the pain was so bad that his features were all contorted!

Using his palm like a butcher's cleaver, Aiden chopped down on the wrist that Bair Yohren was wielding his saber with.

*SNAP!*

The sound of bones cracking rang out and his wrist was snapped.

Sneering sinisterly, Aiden closed in and reached out, grabbing Bair Yohren by the throat and lifting the latter up.

Wringing his arm, he gripped Bair Yohren's throat violently and shook.

*CRACKLE!*

Accompanied by a crisp sound, Bair Yohren's skeleton was shaken out of position by Aiden. Even if he had immense strength, he wouldn't be able to use a single bit at this moment.

Bair Yohren's entire body was flaying limply as Aiden lifted him up.

Because he was choked by the throat, his entire face was bloated and purplish such that he couldn't speak at all.

"WAIT! How dare you!"

"Stop!"

"Don't do it!"

The first statement came from a blood-robed old man who was watching from afar – he was Zenith Sect's Guardian Elder.

The second statement came from the few demonic heirs.

The third statement came from Holy Maiden Sylvie Deva.

"Zenith Sect's Guardian Elder is already rushing over. If you kill him, the Guardian Elder will definitely attack you using his strength as a Martial Grandmaster. D-Don't be reckless! Please!"

Holy Maiden Sylvie Deva tried persuading anxiously.

Aiden said nothing and merely shook his head.

Notwithstanding the fact that Bair Yohren attacked him multiple times, the fact that Bair Yohren knew his identity meant that Aiden could not let this guy survive!

Holy Maiden Sylvie Deva's heart sank in dread.

"Junior, if you dare kill him, I'll make sure you are buried with him!"

Not far away, the blood-robed old man sped over while yelling. His killing intent was surging, as though a hurricane of blood was forming!

Aiden was unmoved despite hearing that as he merely looked at the old man coldly.

On the other side, Overlord Sect's Shadow Raven shouted grimly.

"Void Blade, I advise you to let him go! Otherwise, you will be going against all of the demonic sects and will be forcing us all to attack!"
