Chapter 1305: Assassinate

Many things happened during this single night.

——originally, Gu Qing Shan only went out to complete his promotional mission, but he ran into Crow on his way back, so the two of them went out for drinks to celebrate.

It was supposed to just be a little drinking bout, but they went out to see an Astrologer.

It was just supposed to be a trip to the Astrologer, but they ran into humans of the Wraith realm in the City Lord’s manor, leading to the Six Paths Great Mountain sword being discovered.

——-without putting any thoughts into it, that Elder Du from the Wraith realm will definitely devise a way to steal this sword.

If that’s the case.

I can’t be blamed for what’s about to happen next.

An orange cat sat straight on the tall city wall, staring intensely down at the City Lord’s manor and silently thought.

The deep shroud of night had descended to obscure his form.

——-Sumeru Thaumaturgy, [Ghostly Shadow of Night]

Since Xiao Die had already taken her brand away, no one should be able to discover this orange cat’s existence now.

He silently waited.

——-he had always been extremely patient, especially when preparing for a kill.

A night breeze lightly blew past.

The orange cat continued staring straight at the City Lord’s manor without averting his gaze.

Finally.

The gate of the manor opened.

A group of 7-8 men wearing yaksha masks exited.

Elder Du was walking in front while the others stood around him.

For some reason, Elder Du instinctively looked towards the nearest city wall.

Under the shade of night, the towering wall seemed like an iron shroud that protected this city.

Even though the orange cat was sitting right there, Elder Du couldn’t see a single thing.

Elder Du also didn’t know why he looked at the city wall either, so he instinctively shook his head and said: “Let’s go, we’re heading to the Hitman Guild”

“Sir, should we prepare to fight?” his subordinate asked.

“No, I must first openly apologize to the Hitman Guild’s Master, using that chance to bestow them a few gifts, then look for that fiend to ask for a transaction” Elder Du replied.

His subordinates went silent.

“Sir... every organization must have already received the news by now, knowing that we had just clashed against the Hitman Guild, if we apologize to them like this wouldn’t that harm our Wraith realm’s reputation...” someone cautiously asked.

Elder Du smirked and replied:

“What good is a little bit of reputation? For this sword, any price is worth it”

His voice suddenly became cold: “Of course, if that fiend doesn’t know what’s reasonable, this old man naturally has a way to deal with it”

Before he finished his words.

The cat on the city wall had disappeared.

It abruptly appeared a few dozen meters away from the Wraith realm humans.

Watching these people, the orange cat’s gaze seemed to be pondering something.

While moving forward, each of these people held a talisman in their hand, jointly keeping up a circular talisman formation.

Whenever someone got close, they would immediately be felt by the talisman formation.

Although the orange cat couldn’t understand the talisman formation, with his level of formation expertise, he was able to generally recognize Elder Du to be the eye of the formation.

Each of his movements or gestures, perhaps even his single thought, could turn this talisman formation into a scary killing formation.

Although I can conceal myself as the orange cat, I’d have to return to human form inside talisman formation when I attack, which would lead Elder Du to notice me.

Then——-

How should I kill him?

The orange cat silently tailed them, patiently observing their movements.

Those who kill weren’t afraid of going through trouble, and taking time wasn’t an issue when it came to killing, his calm gaze passed through each of these people.

——the yaksha masks that these Wraith realm humans are wearing are all distinct from one another.

In other words, they can release at least 8 kinds of Guise Hexes in combat.

Other than the defensive Causality Law, they most likely have Life Talismans and other defensive items as well.

They might seem relaxed right now, but Elder Du would only need to send a single thought for these people to unleash incredibly fighting strength.

It’s nearly impossible to kill them all in an instant.

Unless...

Gu Qing Shan pondered back and forth, finally confirming his answer.

——-unless they cannot detect me from the beginning to end.

Furthermore, no matter how little time this fight takes, I can’t let them activate their talisman formation even briefly!

To do this, I must first get rid of Elder Du, as the entire talisman formation is in his hand.

The orange cat thought for a bit before silently speaking to his swords in his mind.

“Luo Bing Li, Earth, Chao Yin; Shannu and I will be the main force of this battle. The three of you are to protect me from the sides, preventing any enemy attacks, I’ll make sure to trigger a Secret Art in time”

“「 Got it (oong) 」”

Luo Bing Li, Earth sword, and Chao Yin sword all answered at the same time.

“Shannu, we’re going to implement a completely unprecedented form of combat” the orange cat informed the Six Paths Great Mountain sword.

“Yes, I’ll listen to anything gongzi says” Shannu replied.

Her tone was no longer as aloof and cold as she was in the past, instead, her tone displayed a bit of devotion.

The orange cat completely missed all the subtleties and continued as his tail swung from side to side: “When I trigger the sword seal, I want you to cooperate and swing with me because this will be the first time I use this body part to hold a sword, my control might be lacking”

“Huh? What do you mean by ‘the first time I use this body part to hold a sword’, gongzi?” Shannu was clearly confused.

“Because I can’t reveal myself, I’m going to...”

The orange cat carefully explained to her.

Finally, he had arranged for every last detail of the operation.

At this point, the Wraith realm had already gone through half their journey and would reach the Hitman Guild after making two more turns.

The orange cat had gone ahead of them, waiting at the intersection.

He sat crouched on the ground, narrowing his eyes towards the approaching Wraith realm humans.

The two sides were getting closer and closer, the distance between them was now only a few hundred meters.

“I’m up” the orange cat said.

“”「 Got it (oong)!」”” his four swords answered at once.

At the next split second, the orange cat’s tail coiled around and grabbed the Six Paths Great Mountain sword from the void of space.

As his tail grasped the sword, the orange cat vanished.

——Divine Skill, [Shadow Shift]!

When he obtained this Thaumaturgy, the War God UI’s description made it very clear:

[This Skill is a Law-grade Divine Skill, no living being can resist it; no barrier, shields, Secret Arts or even forbidden techniques can prevent it]

Very early on during his cultivation, he managed to trap and kill Qi Yan thanks to this Divine Skill.

And right at this moment, despite these Wraith realm bastards being surrounded by a talisman formation, [Shadow Shift] wasn’t hindered in the slightest!

In that instant, the orange cat switched places with Elder Du.

The orange cat was now at the center of all the Wraith realm humans, while Elder Du was standing a few hundred meters away.

Since Elder Du left his position, the talisman formation was dispelled.

In the blink of an eye, the orange cat moved his tail and abruptly unleashed an attack!

Secret Art, [Full Moon Consecutive Strikes]!

—–this was an attack jointly performed by both the orange cat and Shannu!

A light-blue sword phantom drew a circular arc right in the middle of them, drawing a glorious full moon in the middle of the night.

“What!?”

“Damn it, there’s a——”

“Assailant!”

“What is going——-”

The group all shouted, their bodies erupting in colorful defensive techniques——

But this sword could cut through all techniques.

It was useless.

The sharp sword phantom chopped them all half, splattering their blood everywhere—–

But the orange cat didn’t even bother to look at this, instead, he proceeded to throw a punch with his paw towards Elder Du a few hundred meters away.

[Ethereal – Grand Mountain]!

Everything happened in a split second, and Elder Du only managed to unleash a single attack when he was transported away——-

But as soon as his technique was unleashed, a mocking ‘wu wu’ sound came from the void of space.

Another attack, exactly the same as Elder Du’s attack, manifested and crashed into it.

Boom!!!

A thunderous shock resounded in every direction; the entire street was blasted into pieces by the power of this technique.

Every structure and building in Void City was imbued by a unique power, making it so that any attack in any location of Void City would clash against its entire defensive array.

But this technique skill managed to blast apart over half of a street.

Within the explosion, Elder Du’s expression greatly warped.

My attack didn’t work!

Not good, I need to quickly——-

The orange cat’s long-distance fist strike had arrived. historical

Without being able to do anything else, all of Elder Du’s thoughts were wiped out.

He stood stunned in place, unable to move.

But something miraculous occurred.

Despite his shattered psyche, he still seemed to have recognized the outcome of it all.

“Fi...end...”

“How exactly... did... you... do... this...”

Elder Du’s body was still shaking, whispering unwillingly.

The orange cat glared at him and waved his tail, sending the Six Paths Great Mountain sword flying.

“Meow meow”

He coldly called out.

The cold, autumn-water clear blue steel sword flew and abruptly stopped right in front of Elder Du’s face.

A female voice resounded in Elder Du’s ear:

“Gongzi said, he’s not going to tell you”

Before she finished those words, the sword had already passed through Elder Du’s neck with a cold clash.

In the silent shroud of night, a severed head was sent flying.
