Clearly visible, a dark shadow is quickly moving, preparing to approach from behind.
In the blink of an eye, it was less than ten ters behind Cao Xing.
If it were an ordinary mage, having an assassin get this close, they would have already panicked!
But Mr. Cao is a Fifth Rank mage, overpowering this assassin in Level, Attribute, and all aspects.
Suddenly!
Cao Xing stepped forward, rushing out tens of ters at even faster speed.
The shadow stood frozen for a mont, seemingly a bit confused.
How can there be a mage who runs faster than an assassin?
Before the shadow could react, a giant Hexagram Magic Array appeared underfoot.
"Freeze!"
Intense cold surged out!
"Whoa!"
Strangely, the shadow flickered again, actually escaping Cao Xing’s Extre Ice Blossom control range.
Seeing this, Cao Xing’s lips curved slightly, "Interesting, this life-preserving thod is indeed formidable."
But he still wasn’t the least bit flustered.
Directly released an Ice Breaking Flying Blade aid at the ground.
"Bang! Bang bang!"
Ice Balls crashed into the ground, shattering a large amount of ice shards!
This skill turned into splash damage!
The shadow failed to dodge, struck by several ice shards.
And then several damage numbers appeared on top of its head.
[-6546]
[-6632]
[-6753]
...
Cao Xing’s Attack Power has now surpassed seven thousand, even splash damage is unbearable for these Fourth Rank creatures.
The shadow grunted.
Just as it was about to run away again.
Three huge blocks of ice appeared overhead.
Ice Mountain Fall, ready to strike.
Cao Xing’s voice carried a hidden threat.
"If you move another step, you’ll be smashed into pulp."
Hearing this, the shadow seed to also sense the death threat from above.
She knew, if this man in front wanted, she would already be dead.
After a mont, the shadowy aura from the opponent disappeared.
Appearing like a ghost in the Dark Night, with ink-black long hair hanging loosely on her shoulders, so strands gently swaying in the breeze, and a hat atop her head.
Under the hood, Cao Xing saw a pair of pointy kemonomimi ears playfully sticking out from the hair, fluffy and occasionally trembling slightly, as if sensing the slightest movents around.
She was only around 1.2 ters tall, wearing a set of tight black leather armor, with a flat chest, a standard runway.
Cao Xing was stunned, then questioned, "Uh? Kemonomimi?"
This kemonomimi’s features were quite similar to humans, except her pupils were green.
Cao Xing chuckled, "Tell , why did you attack ?"
This kemonomimi folded her arms across her chest, then turned her head away.
"I, Feiying, just wanted to test the skills of the Lord I need to pledge allegiance to."
"Didn’t really want to attack you, see, I’m using a stick as a weapon."
With that, she waved a furry little hand holding a dry branch.
Cao Xing naturally knew that the other party didn’t really intend to kill him.
Earlier when attacking him, she didn’t exude any killing intent.
Otherwise, Cao Xing wouldn’t have spared her but would have eliminated her right away.
He continued questioning, "So now, what do you think of my skills?"
The beast-ear lady assassin slightly lifted her chin, saying proudly.
"Not bad, I, Feiying, have road the continent for hundreds of years, and you’re the first mage who stayed calm after I closed in and even managed to counterattack."
"Given that, I, Helli Feiying, pledging allegiance to you wouldn’t be a loss."
But Cao Xing rely laughed, "Sorry, I haven’t decided if I want you to join my territory yet."
Upon hearing this, a hint of embarrassnt flashed across the kemonomimi’s pretty face.
"What! Back in the day, I, Feiying, was the renowned assassination Goddess, and everyone on the continent knew my na!"
"And you’re still considering whether to accept !"
Cao Xing nodded.
"Your abilities are weak and your combat consciousness is very shallow, you can’t even defeat , a mage."
"If one of the assassins from my territory made a move, you wouldn’t withstand a single blow and would be slain instantly."
"With such abilities and combat awareness, I can’t trust you with any tasks."
Cao Xing’s words were full of taunts about the kemonomimi’s weak abilities.
He’s already familiar with dealing with this kind of arrogant presence.
First suppress the opponent with his strength, then entirely belittle them to crush their confidence.
Then make them willingly submit.
Hmm... colloquially known as CPU...
This beast-ear assassin nad Helli Feiying said frustratedly, "You’re just too abnormal for a mage!"
"I don’t believe there are stronger assassins in this territory!"
"I, Feiying, am the strongest!"
However, before she finished speaking.
A shadow silently appeared beside Cao Xing.
Then, the figure materialized, and it was Sarah.
"Lord, I sensed battle fluctuations here just now, did you encounter anything?"
Her tone was a little worried as she locked her eyes on the small figure on the ground.
And when Sarah’s gaze fixed on her, the beast-ear lady assassin nad Helli Feiying felt like she was being stared at by a terrifying poisonous snake, frozen in fear!
Cao Xing shook his head with a smile, "Nothing, Sarah, it’s just our new mber trying to test her Lord’s skills."
"She even said, in this territory, there’s no stronger assassin than her."
Upon hearing this, Sarah had a look of realization.
At the sa ti, her lips curved into a slight smile.
And the beast-ear lady assassin, upon seeing Sarah’s expression, suddenly turned pale in fright!
But she still held her weapon tightly, face showing a defiant expression.
At this mont, Sarah gripped her double daggers, indicating she was entering combat mode.
In an instant, her figure disappeared from where she stood!
An invisible shadow charged towards the opponent.
anwhile, the beast-ear lady braced herself, a black mist erged from her body, blurring her form.
That’s exactly how battles between assassins are, without much communication.
Whoosh—
A gust of wind swept by, as if darkness was flowing.
The beast-ear lady stealthily moved in the darkness, listening carefully to the surrounding sounds, yet felt nothing.
Not even that feeling of being watched.
But precisely because of this, it’s the most terrifying.
This indicates that the opponent’s stealth and assassination skills far exceed hers!
The beast-ear lady was just about to pull back.
Suddenly felt a terrifying chill from behind!
Though knowing this strike was horrifying, she still refused to dodge!
"Hmph! Saying I, Feiying, can’t withstand even one move is impossible!"
She raised her Short Knife, ready to counterattack.
But at the next mont, she saw the Dagger suddenly change angle, like a Spirit Snake, entwining her wrist.
"Ding!"
Contact!
In the next mont, the dagger in the beast-ear lady’s hand fell to the ground.
And Sarah’s Silent Blade was already against her neck!
