Chapter 1255 - 1254: Wolf God Carter
"How is this possible?"
The man in black was shocked to see his One-Sword Style Sword Technique being broken by Lin Fan!
He had immense confidence in his sword technique, which was his ultimate move meant to assassinate Lin Fan, yet he hadn’t expected this outcome!
Lin Fan, with a wicked curve on his lips, didn’t pause after breaking the man’s One-Sword Style Sword Technique. He pressed forcefully on the ground with his feet, which cracked the earth, shooting forward like an arrow to the man in black, swiftly thrusting out the Soft Sword in his hand!
The man in black’s pupils tightened as he hurriedly waved the Samurai Sword to intercept!
"Clang!"
The Soft Sword clashed with the Samurai Sword, producing a piercing metallic sound and sparking several flashes!
Immediately, Lin Fan flipped his wrist, then forcefully swung again. The Soft Sword glided along the blade of the Samurai Sword, continuously sparking, with its sharp tip aimed at the man’s wrist!
How could the man in black dare be careless? He quickly loosened his grip on the Samurai Sword to dodge Lin Fan’s strike, while his other hand swiftly grasped for the Samurai Sword!
But Lin Fan had foreseen this. As the man in black reached out, Lin Fan coldly chuckled, and the Soft Sword moved back, swiftly slicing horizontally again!
"Shhh~"
The air was torn apart by this slash!
The man in black had just extended his hand halfway when he saw the slash coming, forcing him to retract his hand quickly. Although he avoided having his hand cut, the Samurai Sword fell to the ground!
"Get lost!"
Lin Fan coldly spat out, launching a fierce kick like a cannonball. Despite the man in black’s quick defense with both hands at his chest, he couldn’t withstand the power of the kick. He was sent stumbling several steps back, cracking the ground further and spitting out a mouthful of blood!
Lin Fan glanced playfully at the man in black, chuckling softly: "How about now? Isn’t it time to take off the black cloth over your face and show your true mask?"
"Tyrant! I truly underestimated you!" The man in black said coldly!
"Underestimated, you say?" Lin Fan sneered.
"Heh, Tyrant, don’t think that defeating me today means you can win this war; this... is just the beginning!" said the man in black!
"Since that’s the case, I can’t let you live. Since you’ve come, leave your life here too!"
Lin Fan’s narrowed eyes emitted a chilling light as he charged forward with his Soft Sword!
This time, Lin Fan showed no mercy. He wielded the Soft Sword with incredible speed, its sharp tip trembling and spinning in the air, reflecting light and drawing silver lines!
These silver lines intertwined, resembling blooming flowers—beautiful, yet filled with lethal intent!
The man in black tried to dodge, but compared to Lin Fan’s sword speed, he was far too slow. His night suit was torn open by the sword flowers, exposing skin marked by blood streaks!
"Tyrant! You seek death!"
The man in black yelled in fury!
"I’d like to see how you intend to kill me!"
Lin Fan’s wrist flicked as the Soft Sword swept towards the man’s throat again with lethal precision!
"Roar~"
The man in black snarled, quickly grabbing six throwing darts from his body, flinging them at Lin Fan!
Lin Fan urgently changed the course of his Soft Sword, targeting the direction of the darts, slashing again!
The speed of his sword was as fast as light, the silver line in the air resembling a shooting star!
"Ding!" "Ding!" "Ding!" "Ding" "Ding!"
Five sharp sounds in succession!
Five darts were sent flying by Lin Fan’s sword. However, the sixth dart grazed Lin Fan’s shoulder, leaving only a blood mark—thankfully not a severe injury!
Lin Fan did not even glance at his shoulder wound, swiftly stepping forward, thrusting his Soft Sword again!
"Shoo~"
The sharp tip pierced the void, tracing a silver line as it shot forth!
Caught off guard, the man in black was mercilessly pierced in the shoulder by the Soft Sword, the sharp tip penetrating through, causing blood to scatter!
The man in black ignored the pain, quickly retreating a few steps, forcibly pulling the Soft Sword from his shoulder!
"Tyrant, I swear not to be human if I don’t avenge this hatred!" The man in black yelled angrily!
"Unfortunately... you won’t have the chance to leave!" Lin Fan said coldly!
But just as Lin Fan stepped forward to end the man’s life, he retrieved a black iron ball, about the size of a glass sphere, from his chest!
"Not good..."
Lin Fan’s expression stiffened!
The man in black quickly threw the black iron ball to the ground, causing it to explode and emit a white smoke, like a smoke bomb!
This smoke was toxic, forcing Lin Fan to abandon the golden opportunity to finish the man in black, covering his nose and mouth, retreating swiftly!
After a while, the smoke dissipated, only to reveal that the silhouette of the man in black had vanished, the nearby window shattered from his escape!
"Damn it!"
Lin Fan unwillingly clenched his fist!
He had recognized the man in black’s identity—without a doubt, he was one of the emperor’s four guards, Wolf God Carter!
Despite never engaging directly, Lin Fan knew well of Carter’s fearsome reputation and hadn’t expected him to venture to the northeast!
Letting such a Tiger King escape was a significant threat to Lin Fan!
"Hopefully, it’s just Carter alone, or else... it could pose real difficulty!" Lin Fan thought internally!
Then Lin Fan turned to face Mr. Ximen, asking, "Mr. Ximen, are you alright?"
Mr. Ximen had just suffered repeated blows from the man in black, rendering his arm numb and unable to lift, his face slightly pale!
However, Mr. Ximen’s spirit remained strong as he replied, "Don’t worry, I won’t die just yet! But that man is truly arrogant, daring to intrude upon the Ximen Family. Do you know his identity?"
"One of the three Great Emperors of the Dark Realm, Wolf God Carter, the emperor’s guard. He currently represents the world’s strongest One-Sword Style practitioner!" Lin Fan explained!
"The emperor’s guard... why would he intrude upon the Ximen Family to kill my father!" Ximen Huwei exclaimed in shock!
While many have heard of the Dark Realm and seen its denizens, few have truly entered that world!
Dark, bloody, and cruel!
This is the impression people have of the Dark Realm!
Anyone from that world is seen as akin to demons from hell!
