Whoosh!
The surprise attack failed, and the beautiful woman’s face tensed. Clearly, she had underestimated Ye Luo’s strength; she hadn’t expected him to be able to thwart her attack in such a manner.
However, as a trained assassin, a single failure did not deter her from seizing another opportunity to thrust her dagger toward Ye Luo’s head once more.
Ye Luo snorted coldly, "Courting death!"
Assassins have their own rules, and the most common one is that if a strike misses, they flee a thousand miles away.
After all, the life of an assassin is extrely dangerous, always relying on seizing the opportunity for a lethal hit. If that fails, in order to preserve themselves, they must retreat imdiately. Assassins are not warriors who fight head-on with swords.
The fact that this woman proceeded with a second attack after her first had missed was a clear indication that she didn’t take Ye Luo’s strength seriously, which was to be a fatal mistake.
This ti, Ye Luo would not let her succeed; the mont the knife swung toward him, it was already completely under his control.
Ye Luo’s left hand shot out like lightning, clutching the wrist of the hand that wielded the dagger, twisted it directly, and a surge of hidden energy caused her wrist to tremble, the dagger falling from her grasp and into Ye Luo’s right hand.
Then, with a swift movent, Ye Luo flipped over and pressed the captured dagger to the woman’s throat as she tried to resist.
Ye Luo, moving as fast as lightning, threw several Silver Needles, piercing them into specific acupoints around the woman’s body, leaving her no ti to react. Her entire body felt weak, unable to muster any strength.
"Innate Peak Stage!" Ye Luo’s lips curled into a charming smile as he spoke lightly.
At this mont, the beautiful woman’s complexion had drastically changed, her pupils showing a shocked expression as she looked at Ye Luo.
"I didn’t expect you to be knowledgeable in illusion techniques. I almost fell into the hands of a beauty like you, well, they say ’beauty brings disaster,’ and apparently there’s so truth to it. Out with it, who are you, and who sent you to kill ?"
Ye Luo’s voice was cold as he stared at her.
The beautiful woman’s expression quickly returned to normal, her face indifferent, clearly not planning to respond to Ye Luo’s question.
"Not talking?" Ye Luo’s gaze turned icy, his entire being exuding a fearso presence that made it difficult for her to breathe, her complexion turning paler.
"Just kill !"
The woman said coldly, her eyes resolute as if she was prepared to face death.
"Oh, not afraid of death, are we? Well then, that’s fine!" A playful smile appeared on Ye Luo’s lips.
"I have many ways to tornt a man, ways that can leave them begging for death. But when it cos to won, especially a beauty like you, I don’t think those thods are quite appropriate. I believe there’s one particularly suitable way."
Ye Luo sneered, a wicked glint flashing in his eyes, making the beautiful woman shudder with an inexplicable sense of dread.
Whoosh!
A swift movent from Ye Luo’s hand, and a thin line of blood appeared on the beautiful woman’s face.
Now the woman’s composure had collapsed completely, her expression filled with panic. "You... what are you going to do?"
"What am I going to do? I’m of course seeking revenge. You just tried to take my life and refused to tell what I want to know, so I have to punish you. Look at your lovely face—if it were scarred, that would be such a waste. A great beauty turned into a ’painted face’ with blood trails crisscrossing her cheeks."
Ye Luo revealed a trace of indifferent smile, pressing the dagger harder, this ti the bloodstain was deeper, blood even seeped out. This caused the beauty to gasp in pain, and the fear of disfigurent made her heart tremble even more.
Just then, Ye Luo suddenly flicked the dagger in his hand backwards.
Whoosh!
The dagger transford into a streak of lightning, shooting toward Ye Luo’s back, and directly left a trail of blood before striking the wall.
Then, a figure erged, it was a woman in her thirties dressed in a kimono, looking graceful and alluring.
However, at this mont, there was a gash on this beautiful woman’s right hand, the result of the dagger’s cut. If it weren’t for her swift evasion, the blade that was supposed to stab into Ye Luo’s body would have pierced her own.
"How did you detect ?"
This beautiful woman gazed at Ye Luo with eyes flashing with astonishnt, revealing an incredulous expression.
"Another one should co out," Ye Luo said indifferently, his eyes scanning elsewhere.
As his words fell, another kimono-clad beauty appeared, still dazzlingly alluring and full of charm, both won exuded a mature allure.
"How could you possibly detect our Stealth Technique? Who exactly are you?"
The two beauties were now looking at Ye Luo with faces full of surprise and wariness.
The Stealth Technique was a unique concealnt art of the Sakura Ryuu, even more advanced than the Ninjutsu employed by ninjas. Once mastered and activated, it could completely hide one’s presence, making it difficult to be detected even by masters of the Saint Realm.
The Sakura Ryuu had risen to prominence among the myriad schools in the Island Country by relying on their Stealth and Illusion techniques. Since she started, she had taken pride in her Stealth Technique, which had never been unveiled by anyone.
It was unthinkable that it had failed today, a heavy blow to the Sakura Ryuu.
"i Ya Auntie, i Lun Auntie, what are you doing here?" the beauty lying on the bed looked at the two newly appeared beauties with eyes full of surprise.
"It seems you’re all together. Judging by your attire, you must be from the forces of the Island Country, sent by the Morita Family, I suppose. What I didn’t expect is that you all are beauties."
Ye Luo clicked his tongue, his eyes sweeping over the two mature beauties with a mischievous glint.
There was no denying that both beauties were very charming.
Faced with Ye Luo’s blatant stare, the young matrons showed no disgust, instead they smiled as they approached him.
Their smiles were bewitching, like Daji reincarnated, captivating to the point that one couldn’t look away, Ye Luo was no exception.
However, just as the two beauties approached Ye Luo, each of them revealed a dagger in hand, slashing directly at Ye Luo’s neck.
But the corner of Ye Luo’s mouth curled into a cold smile, his eyes flashed a sharp gleam.
Bang! Bang!
Terrifying Nine Yang True Qi burst forth from Ye Luo’s body, his body glimring with light as he punched out with lightning speed. The two Semi-Saint beauties didn’t have ti to react before they were struck by Ye Luo’s fists.
