Chapter 271: Reachign the geysers
Cain’s eyes were cold as he took the old man’s life. He silently sent the corpse into his space ring before looking into the distance.
Norman was not the only assassin since there was a duo of middle-aged men with a cultivation at the Late Wave Champion Rank moving toward Shura. Shadows once again covered his body as he made his way toward the duo. Explore more adventures at empire
The two assassins working together were very much alike, making it seem they were brothers. The one at the lead took a deep breath as he took a small dagger and began silently channeling his Astral Wave in it.
Just as the middle-aged man was about to signal his brother to trigger the cloaking spells, he heard a cracking sound, and as he turned his head, a sense of absolute shock assaulted him.
There was a young man on top of his brother whose head was aiming in the wrong direction right now.
A life of murder and danger had hardened the middle-aged man’s heart and mind, so he kept control even when he saw how the young man shattered his brother’s neck. Pure hate and killing intent appeared in his eyes as he changed his target, but before he could even take a step forward, the same young man on top of his brother appeared before him, sending a fist to his throat.
Cain’s blood fist landed point-bank in the middle-aged man’s throat, and if the brute power behind it was not enough, it also generated a shock wave upon impact, increasing the damage. He had not even finished with that attack before he charged the other, taking a deep breath and compressing the air inside his lung.
The middle-aged man’s throat became a bloody pulp when a projectile landed on his right eye, destroying it before carrying on into the brain. Unlike Norman, the middle-aged man died with an expression of unwillingness on his face.
It took him less than ten seconds to take care of two Late Wave Champions, but there was no smile on Cain’s face. Instead, he clenched his teeth as he took a dagger out of his ribs before focusing his Blood Energy, Astral Wave, and the power of the Sun Seed into the wound.
Although it was true that Cain managed to take the middle-aged man by surprise, this one still managed to pierce him with the dagger while he landed the blow to the throat.
