Now reading: Chapter 266 - 267: Night Shadow from The Peerless Emperor, a Action novel by Dusk in a Midsummer’s Day.

The Swift Hidden Clansman, shaken out by Lin Qian, hurriedly fled in the opposite direction.

The leader who had spoken to him earlier had his face undergo a drastic change. He couldn’t understand why, having activated his secret technique and returned, the other party should have been unsuspecting and unprepared by all logic.

Why had they been discovered?

"This Human Clan mber, how in the world did he detect our presence? We must report back to the Young Master quickly, or this Human Clan mber might interfere with our plans." This leader of the Swift Hidden Clan thought to himself, as his Soul Power surged and his speed beca even faster.

But ahead, suddenly, a red-gold thunder turned into a sword light, slashing down upon them from above.

The enormous Sword Qi, like a curtain of thunder, completely blocked their path forward, leaving them no chance to leave.

And two of the Swift Hidden Clansn who had dashed slightly faster were cut in two by this heaven-descending curtain of Sword Qi, their blood spilling as they plumted down.

As the curtain of Sword Qi gradually dissipated, the young man’s white robe fluttered under the red-gold thunder, his gaze coldly fixed on them.

The leading Swift Hidden Clansman’s forehead broke out in a cold sweat, his mouth agape in shock as he looked at the figure ahead, screaming inside, "What is going on with this Human Clan mber? Not only can he easily detect our traces, but his speed is far greater than ours."

At this mont, he was trendously frightened.

Their Swift Hidden Clan’s talent was to conceal their tracks and kill enemies unseen, and they prided themselves on their speed!

Yet, their talents were entirely ineffective in front of this Human Clan mber.

The opponent was rely in the Body Realm of the Life and Death Realm, and not to ntion his own level in the Soul Realm of Life and Death, his companions were also in the Power Realm of Life and Death, each with outstanding talent and far from ordinary.

But the figure within the thunder was terrifying, as if he were a natural nesis to their clan.

Furthermore, the aura emanating from the opponent was like that of a high and mighty ruler; their own pressure simply couldn’t withstand it.

Lin Qian, the Emperor, to the petty thieves who hid their tracks, was naturally undisguisable in the face of imperial authority and royal might. The powerful soul fused from two lifetis made him, in a sense, truly the bane of the Swift Hidden Clan.

"Do you really intend to eradicate us completely, sir?" the leader of the Swift Hidden Clan asked, his eyebrows knit, his voice suppressed as he addressed Lin Qian.

Lin Qian stretched out his right hand, Elental Components turning into tallic liquid to fully encase the Primordial Weapon. The Thunder Night Sword he had successfully ard was firmly grasped in his hand: "Allowing you to leave earlier was an act of rcy on my part. Yet, you presud upon my leniency, returned, and even prepared to strike against ?"

"You’ve got so nerve!" Lin Qian glared at the Swift Hidden Clansn before him, his reprimand ringing out. In the next mont, his figure had vanished from in front of them.

The pupils of the leading Swift Hidden Clansman constricted as he anxiously yelled to the other clansn, "Retreat! Split up and retreat, and convey the ssage to the Young Master." Explore new worlds at .Côm

Upon hearing the leader’s words, the other Swift Hidden Clansn gathered their pale cyan Soul Power to the utmost, ready to make their escape.

However, at that mont, a black sword blade had already stretched out from behind, pressing against their own necks, with a disdainful voice coming from behind them, "Your tricks are child’s play. Let show you how my Empire’s low-level Swift Soldiers evolve into Interdiate ranks and after changing class to Night Shadow, carry out assassination tasks."

As Lin Qian finished speaking, that leader of the Swift Hidden Clan looked on in horror at everything unfolding before him.

At this mont, night had fallen in this Small World, and under the bright moonlight, his tribal kinsn, due to their close proximity, cast shadows upon one another.

From within the shadows of several Swift Hidden tribespeople, suddenly an arm holding a black dagger extended, launching a surprise attack from behind, slashing towards the neck of the Swift Hidden tribesperson.

In the next instant, a complete figure burst forth from that shadow, and before the leading Swift Hidden tribesperson could get a clear look, it disappeared into the night, leaving no trace behind.

However, in just that brief mont, the figures that erged from their own shadows had already slain half of the Swift Hidden tribespeople.

The surviving half of the Swift Hidden tribespeople, in a panic, followed the lead of their tribesman, hastily scattering in different directions, and their forms too disappeared into the night sky.

The moonlight tonight was exceptionally bright, sending shivers through the lead Swift Hidden tribesman’s body because he could clearly see blood blossoms blooming in the empty air.

With each bloom of those blood-red petals, a Swift Hidden tribesman would appear and fall from the sky.

Not only that, but there was also a Human Clan mber appearing simultaneously, pulling a black dagger out from the heart of one of his tribal kin.

It was a figure dressed in exquisite soft armor with a black mask on the face, tightly wrapping the lower half, and a black hood extending from within the soft armor made it impossible to see their upper face.

Standing absolutely still, devoid of any presence, they stood quietly under the moonlit sky. Eventually, as if emitting black smoke, they vanished before his eyes.

The lead Swift Hidden tribesman watched wide-eyed as his tribesn, having vanished from sight, were one by one pierced through the heart, their life-force fading as they plumted from mid-air.

The Swift Hidden Clan, known for creating advantageous conditions to disorient the enemy and then disappearing to capitalize on their speed, would assassinate without a trace.

This leader of the Swift Hidden tribespeople had never imagined that they would be cleanly eliminated while remaining hidden and only see the true face of their enemy upon death.

"It seems your Swift Hidden Clan’s talent for concealnt doesn’t quite match up to that of my soldiers," Lin Qian patted the face of the grief-stricken Swift Hidden tribesperson, "If you would kindly explain how exactly your Swift Hidden Clan got in here and what you intended to do, I could spare your life."

The lead Swift Hidden tribesperson pushed aside his sadness and reached for the Thunder Night Sword, preparing to take his own life.

But as he reached for the Thunder Night Sword, the originally dark tal with golden hues dissolved into a tallic liquid, transforming into nine spherical Elental Components.

However, the life force of the lead Swift Hidden tribesperson was also dissipating, helplessly falling towards the ground below.

Lin Qian looked down at the pale body plumting downwards and sighed slightly, "Attempting to grab the sword to buy ti for a soul detonation, that’s quite manly."

After a mont of reflection, Lin Qian commanded the empty Void, "Bury them right here; leaving their bodies exposed in the wilderness would be too disrespectful.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Shadowy figures abruptly appeared out of nowhere, knelt to receive the order, and then rushed downward.

Looking at those shadowy figures, Lin Qian was filled with pride.

The Swift Hidden Clan? Their talent paled in comparison to the Huaxia Empire’s night shadows. re simple concealnt was nothing but a crude skill, not worthy of catching Lin Qian’s eye.

Night Shadow, the evolution of Swift Soldiers compared to the lowest level of basic Swift Soldiers, had discarded other techniques but specialized in the art of assassination.

Favorites of the night.
