C106 Wu Dao, the Enlightened

Rumble...

The Golden True Essence Dragon Shadow shot out by the Flying Dragon in the Sky instantly penetrated the masked assassin's body, striking down on the ground.

The earth below burst forth, with debris erupting all over.

On the ground emerged a large crater.

As for the masked assassin, his figure had strangely dissipated like vapor.

"He didn't die?"

Zhan Tianming furrowed his brows.

Since he didn't hear the system's notification at all, it clearly indicated that he failed to kill the assassin just now.

Rather, he had escaped.

For the last time, he swept his gaze throughout the vicinity.

Unfortunately, he couldn't detect anything.

"Bajie, quickly analyze the area," Zhan Tianming transmitted.

"Master, my head is spinning. Also, I'm stuck," Little Purple responded.

"What?" Zhan Tianming said, startled.

As it turns out, after Little Purple unleashed the violet ray of light that pierced through the masked assassin, the overwhelming power did not end there. Immediately after, it crashed into the stone wall and got its whole body stuck into the wall.

Zhan Tianming could only be careful and keep his guard up at all times.

After all, the assassin concealed his aura very well. Even when he lingered close in the surroundings, Little Purple failed to notice him.

Such an assassin was extremely terrifying.

For you will never know when he might just appear behind you.

And attack you with a light slash.

Meanwhile...

Xiang'er was anxiously protecting Zongzheng Wanyou behind, sweeping her gaze all around the place.

However, the cave was pretty dark. Despite being a One-star Martial Expert and possessing the illumination of the moonlight pearls, her visibility wasn't very high.

Zhan Tianming, on the other hand, did not keep his eyes out for any figures.

The one thing he was searching for were the blood trails.

As long as he could find the blood trail, he would be able to follow the tracks of the assassin.

Unfortunately, even after analyzing the place thoroughly, he still couldn't find any traces. It was as if the assassin's existence had been erased from the world. Leaving not a single trace behind, it would be impossible to locate him.

"Master, you don't need to keep searching. That assassin should have already run far away."

Little Purple's voice sounded.

"Master, why don't you come save me first?"

"I'm completely stuck and seem to have bumped my head quite hard."

Hearing that, Zhan Tianming rolled his eyes.

What the hell?

Was that how a divine beast should act?

It had learned the initial stage of the Divine Beast Technique, yet it still had not fully mastered the technique. Every time it used the technique, it would feel slight dizziness. What an utter joke... How could it possibly be a divine beast?

'I'm starting to think you aren't actually a divine beast. Rather, you're just here for the laughs, right?'

Even then, Zhan Tianming knew.

Little Purple was all in all a mere level one divine beast. According to the system, divine beasts were capable of leveling up to as high as level 99.

If Little Purple continued to level up, it would certainly grow much stronger.

'Forget it, let's just help it out first.'

In spite of this, Zhan Tianming nevertheless remained vigilant.

After a while, he finally got Little Purple out from the crevice in the mountain wall.

At this moment!

Clang!

Behind Zhan Tianming, a strange sound of a sword reverberated.

Ding!

The sword pierced straight into Zhan Tianming's back.

However...

"Proud Dragon Repents!"

Turning his body, Zhan Tianming struck out with his palm ruthlessly.

"Roar!"

The afterimage of a dragon flashed like a bolt of lightning.

Boom!!!

The palm struck directly on the masked assassin who had been hiding behind him for an unknown amount of time.

"Puff…"

The masked assassin spat out a mouthful of blood, soaking his veil in crimson. However, the health bar above his head showed that there was still about 10% of his HP remaining. At that moment, his body turned into smoke and dissipated into the air.

"God damn it! He's actually not dead yet?"

Zhan Tianming could not help but curse in a low voice.

After all, he had already used two moves, yet he didn't feel any direct contact with the target.

Otherwise...

That previous palm strike would have taken the assassin's life.

As for the piercing attack shot out by the assassin just now, if the Dragon Scale Armor on Zhan Tianming's body hadn't blocked it, Zhan Tianming would have already been killed.

At that moment, he had practically taken a U-turn back out from the gates of hell.

Standing before Zongzheng Wanyou, Xiang'er seemed extremely nervous.

Her gaze constantly scanned the surroundings for any signs of danger.

As for Zongzheng Wanyou, she was still immersed in her grievance.

"It seems like we can't rest here any longer. Let's leave this place immediately." Saying that, Zhan Tianming prepared to leave with Zongzheng Wanyou and Xiang'er. However, he stopped in his tracks once again and turned back to look at Zongzheng Wanyou who wore an absent-minded expression on her face.

Knitting his brows, Zhan Tianming shook his head helplessly.

If things continued down this path, Zongzheng Wanyou would not be able to escape the assassins at all.

With a flip of his hand, Zhan Tianming lifted out the Blood Veined Armor.

Although the Blood Veined Armor was not as good as the Dragon Scaled Armor, it was nevertheless refined from the skin of the Blood-Armored Savage Tiger, a Rank Two Demonic Beast. The armor was an upper mysterious grade item, rarely seen throughout the entire Sky Wind Country. Equipping the armor would give Zongzheng Wanyou at least a bit more protection.

"Xiang'er, equip this armor on her."

Passing the Blood Veined Armor to Xiang'er, Zhang Tianmiang then turned back around.

Xiang'er knitted her brows.

If Zhan Tianming did not leave the cave, how could Zongzheng Wanyou put the armor on?

After all, this armor was supposed to be under one's clothing.

By concealing it beneath another layer of clothing, it would protect Zongzheng Wanyou much more effectively.

If worn on the outside, the assassin would instantly see the armor with a single glance.

"Don't worry, I won't peek," Zhan Tianming said.

He was aware that Xiang'er would hesitate, but he couldn't simply leave the cave either. After all, he couldn't be sure whether the killer had already left the cave or was waiting on the outside. If the assassin was still lying in wait within the cave...

Then, Zongzheng Wanyou's and Xiang'er's lives would be in danger.

Xiang'er wasn't stupid and quickly reacted.

Following that, she assisted Zongzheng Wanyou in taking off her outer robes and putting on the Blood Veined Armor before dressing her back up again.

Although her clothes were still soaking wet, the Blood Veined Armor emitted a wave of Fire Attribute energy throughout her body.

Originally feeling somewhat cold, Zongzheng Wanyou's body quickly surged with a sense of warmth.

Unfortunately, she still looked as if her soul had left her body.

With no time to waste in the cave, the three of them braved through the rain and set out.

The moment they left...

"Huff… Huff…"

Within the cave, a mass of dark mist emerged. In the next instant, the masked assassin who was heavily injured merged from the mist.

"Puff..."

The masked assassin once again spat out a mouthful of blood.

Lifting his head, he gazed outside the cave.

"I never thought that I, Wu Dao, would actually suffer such a heavy injury today despite working as an assassin for the past seven years and killing countless individuals. Furthermore, I was even injured by a mere Five-star Martial Practitioner. Huh... how humiliating."

"However…"

"Next time, I will definitely succeed in assassinating her. Xin'er, wait for me. As long as I complete this assassination job, I will make enough silver taels to request for the best alchemist to refine a pill capable of healing you."

The eyes of the assassin who called himself Wu Dao lit up brightly.

Sitting cross-legged, Wu Dao took out a pill and consumed it. Then, he activated his cultivation technique on the spot to recover his injuries.

Meanwhile...

Zhan Tianming led Zongzheng Wanyou and Xiang'er as they moved forward through the night amidst the rain.

This time, they traveled over 25 kilometers, trudging through the forest before arriving on the village road.

The morning finally arrived.

At this point, the rain had already stopped pouring as the sun gradually rose from the horizon.

Just when Zhan Tianming thought that they had lost all pursuers, Little Purple's voice sounded again.

"Master, it seems that we're being followed once again."
