He couldn't help but think to himself, "What kind of child is this? This aura is truly unparalleled, so powerful in the latest chapter!"
"Have you seen clearly? Are you satisfied? Are you qualified to meet the King of Hell now?" The heart of the Alliance Master was soaring in the void, but suddenly he was struck dumb by Luo Bingbing's words, plummeting from the heights to the depths.
He was furious, trembling with rage!
However, being an old hand, he quickly adjusted his mindset and regained his usual calmness and wisdom. He said to Luo Bingbing, "Hmph! You little brat, how dare you cause trouble in my Assassin Alliance? Are you tired of living?"
Upon hearing his words, Luo Bingbing shook his head and replied, "Oh! Tsk tsk tsk! There's an ancient saying: a dog's mouth cannot spit out ivory. This statement is indeed true; the ancients do not deceive me!"
"Is it useful to boast with your tongue? If you have the ability, let's see it in action." After saying this, he looked at Luo Bingbing, and two brilliant lights gathered in his eyes, burning with fierce fighting spirit...
"Just you?" Luo Bingbing assessed him from top to bottom and left to right before continuing, "You don't even have the qualifications to make me take action."
"You... you..." He was so angry that he could hardly speak, pointing at Luo Bingbing.
Seeing him pointing at her, Luo Bingbing felt quite displeased and frowned slightly, instinctively wanting to raise her hand. However, before she could move, a voice came from behind her. "Master, there's no need for you to deal with this scum; let me handle it. You can just watch from the side!"
"Alright, go ahead!" Just as Shadowless was about to step out to fight after hearing Luo Bingbing's words, he heard one of the Alliance Master's subordinates say, "Shadowless, are you really going to be a traitor and oppose the entire Assassin Alliance?"
Shadowless looked at his former friend and said, "Li, do you really want to spend your life in this soulless place devoid of color? Are you willing to remain here as an emotionless killing machine? Haven't we killed enough people over the years? How many innocent lives have been lost? How many people want revenge against the Assassin Alliance and us?"
Shadowless asked several questions in succession, leaving the person across from him speechless.
"Li, there's no need to waste so many words with him. You all go up and capture this traitor for me; I want to torture him slowly!" Seeing that Li did not respond, the Alliance Master sitting at the top instructed several subordinates beside him.
In an instant, a sense of oppressive tension filled the entire hall. Of course, for one particular person among them, that oppression simply did not exist.
Shadowless looked expressionlessly at several former friends and comrades across from him. To be honest, although he wanted to break free from the control of the Assassin Alliance, he was very reluctant to become their enemy. As the ancient saying goes: "Those who do not share the same path will not make plans together." He knew that he had to confront them now.
Suddenly, Shadowless flashed forward, charging at Li with incredible speed.
The others surrounded Shadowless, encircling him in a tight formation. Li swiftly dodged backward, spinning to evade the attack. The other assassins surrounding Shadowless quickly launched their strikes, exchanging blows back and forth.
In the hall, countless torches burned brightly, their flames dancing wildly. The onlookers could only see their shadows leaping in the flickering light, with countless blades flashing ominously...
Originally, Shadowless had the highest martial arts skills among them, and after receiving special training from Luo Bingbing, his abilities were on a completely different level. Despite being outnumbered, Shadowless took some time and effort to defeat them; he never aimed to take their lives but only to severely injure them. After fifty exchanges, only Shadowless remained standing, while all the surrounding assassins lay on the ground, unable to rise.
Facing nine opponents and defeating them in just fifty moves left them all heavily injured and unable to get up. Seeing this situation, everyone in the hall except for Luo Bingbing was shocked and fell silent in fear!
Shadowless turned around and nodded at Luo Bingbing, a faint smile curling at the corners of his lips.
Suddenly, he felt a sharp weapon flying towards his vital point. He quickly turned around, narrowed his eyes, and reached out with his long, fair hand to grab the weapon.
The one who launched the hidden weapon was none other than the Alliance Master of the Assassin Alliance. Seeing Shadowless catch the weapon with his hand, he laughed heartily and said, “Shadowless, no matter how high your martial arts skills are or how powerful you are, what does it matter? You have still fallen victim to my Seven Steps Down; this is the consequence of your betrayal. Hahaha…”
“You are truly despicable!”
In the hall, everyone except for Luo Bingbing believed that Shadowless was doomed, including Shadowless himself who thought he was finished today. Faced with Luo Bingbing, he did not dare turn around to look at her; instead, he could only glare angrily at that treacherous man—the leader of the Assassin Alliance. Filled with unwillingness, he wanted to make one last desperate attempt to take down the leader before meeting his own end.
But just as he prepared to act, he heard Luo Bingbing's cold voice call out to him. “Ying, come here.”
Upon hearing her words, Shadowless felt an overwhelming sense of unease and dread.
He did not know if his master was aware that he only had seven steps left in his life or if she knew about his intention for a final struggle. His heart was filled with guilt, anxiety, and fear.
As he was lost in thought, the clear and youthful voice of Luo Bingbing reached his ears again. "Shadow, aren't you coming over?"
Shadowless had no choice but to put away his chaotic thoughts, turn around, and walk step by step towards Luo Bingbing. Everyone silently counted his steps in their hearts: one, two, three...
When they silently counted to seven, Shadowless had just taken seven steps and arrived in front of Luo Bingbing. Just as he stopped and was about to collapse, he heard Luo Bingbing say, "Extend that hand."
Although Shadowless felt weak and dizzy, he forced himself to extend the hand that held the hidden weapon in front of her.
Luo Bingbing slightly raised one of her delicate white hands and gently pressed it on Shadowless's long, pale hand that lacked color. An incredible thing happened; under everyone's gaze, Shadowless actually stood up.
Everyone was astonished. He had been affected by the leader's Seven Steps Fall technique, which meant he could only take seven steps. Clearly, he had already fallen and was barely sitting on the ground; how could that young boy lightly press on his hand and make him stand up as if nothing had happened? Even Shadowless himself was baffled. He felt completely drained, as if his life was nearing its end, yet after being lightly pressed by his master, he felt a surge of strength fill his body, even the uncomfortable sensation within him vanished.
The one who created this miracle and stirred waves of astonishment in everyone's hearts remained calm. Slowly retracting her hand without even glancing at Shadowless, she slightly closed her eyes and continued to sit expressionlessly on the Carved Wooden Chair.
Although Luo Bingbing did not look at him or say a word, he knew she was waiting for him to fulfill his promise to eliminate the leader of the Assassin Alliance.
Shadowless couldn't help but think to himself: "Master, Shadowless will not disappoint you again; I promise!"
With a determined heart, Shadowless slowly turned around, stood firm, and fixed his sharp gaze on the leader of the Assassin Alliance. His piercing gaze seemed ready to pierce through the leader.
Suddenly, like lightning, he dashed towards the leader of the Assassin Alliance, drawing out the dagger hidden in his sleeve and aiming for the opponent's chest with precise calculation...
The leader of the Assassin Alliance saw the dagger coming towards him and swiftly sidestepped. Although quick, the dagger still left a long "gash" on his chest. A hint of surprise flashed through Shadowless's eyes as he pressed forward again.
This time, he deliberately left an opening on his right side, hoping that the Alliance Master would unwittingly jump into his trap. The martial arts he was using were not from this world but were taught to him by his master from a thousand years later. In no time at all, the Alliance Master willingly jumped into his trap without realizing it.
The leader of the Assassin Alliance thought it was an opening from Shadowless and quickly turned to stab, unaware that as he turned, Shadowless's dagger was already slashing towards his right carotid artery from behind. By the time he and those around him reacted, the dagger had already pierced a one-inch wide gash in his neck.
In the silent hall, only the sound of liquid flowing and the breaths in the air could be heard...
"Finally quiet!" In the lifeless hall, Luo Bingbing's lazy yet youthful voice suddenly rang out.
Shadowless silently returned to Luo Bingbing's side, standing behind her without saying a word.
However, those around them were no longer calm. One of them spoke first: "Shadowless, you ungrateful wretch who forgets your benefactor, you actually killed the leader. We will not let you go; no matter where you run to, the Assassin Alliance will avenge our leader."
"Hmph! Avenge? With you? Is that even possible?" Luo Bingbing smirked slightly, revealing a wicked smile, and said disdainfully.
Suddenly, the hall fell silent. Although they did not want to provoke Luo Bingbing directly, they also knew they were no match for her. The chances of successfully avenging their leader seemed to be zero. Thus, they were left speechless!
Luo Bingbing narrowed her eyes and instructed Shadowless, "Shadow, leave them to you."
"Master, I want to keep them alive so they can serve you."
"Shadow, keeping a pack of wolves around is very dangerous. As the old saying goes, wolves cannot be tamed."
