King of Assassins

The reinforced Bai Feng Sword, sharp and resilient, can bear such violent energy.

In this state, Gao Xuan moves faster than a bullet. His semi-energy body can easily withstand bullets.

In fact, bullets can't keep up with Gao Xuan's speed. None of the battle personnel present can match Gao Xuan's speed.

Battle personnel can only witness the intense and unmatched sharp sword light suddenly flash into a giant cross.

The space where the intense cross sword light points is torn apart like a frozen painting.

In an instant, guns and people are shattered.

The fierce gunfire is abruptly halted amidst the intense sword light.

When the sword light dissipates, Gao Xuan has already pierced through the defense formation of the Asura Squad. Behind him, the members of the Asura Squad, both men and guns, split neatly into pieces.

Broken metal, limbs, and blood slowly spread across the marble floor as smooth as a mirror.

Blood and death are presented in the most direct manner.

Gao Xuan didn't look back, effortlessly entering the elevator with his sword.

Watching from the rear, Purple's expression was grave; Gao Xuan's sword strike was too powerful. Just observing from afar, she was already numb with fear from the profound sword intent.

Gao Xuan currently, is far stronger than her. A casual sword strike could take her life.

Yet, in her heart, there was a strong impulse; she wanted to catch up and chat with Gao Xuan.

Purple remembered clearly, Gao Xuan was genuinely wanting to chat with her yesterday.

Then, she had no desire to chat. Now, she changed her mind.

Reason told Purple to stay as far away from Gao Xuan as possible. Intuition told her to follow Gao Xuan.

Purple trusted her intuition; it hadn't deceived her. In contrast, rational judgment was based on existing experiences and information, seemingly wise, but the basis for judgment was rather low.

"There's some money in the vault; take it and escape."

Purple instructed Poison, although he wasn't anything good, he had been with her for ten years and worked hard.

At this stage, Purple still wanted to pave a way for the guy.

Poison was stunned, "Boss?"

Purple waved her hand, signaling Poison to leave quickly. She walked forward briskly with her sword.

Poison watched Purple's back in confusion. Gao Xuan had demonstrated such powerful strength, and yet the boss wasn't convinced? Isn't she going to die?

He respected Purple's strength, which made him willing to follow her. Moreover, Purple was willing to delegate authority, which he admired greatly.

However, he wasn't going to follow her to death. He didn't like dying with others, not even the boss.

Hesitating briefly, Poison swiftly turned to leave.

Purple arrived at the lobby, already calm and quiet. All battle personnel were slain by a single strike from Gao Xuan.

She glanced at the surveillance cameras around the lobby; they were intact. Apparently, the bigwigs above were terrified too, with no mood to watch her.

Indeed, viewing the battle via surveillance were Huo Tiejun and Yuan Ling'Er, now a bit dazed, unaware the lobby had an extra person.

They thought the Asura Squad might not be able to stop Gao Xuan but should hold him off for a while at least.

In reality, Gao Xuan drew his sword for a strike, and the elite Asura Squad was cut down like mere grass.

Recalling the intense and unmatched sword light, Huo Tiejun felt chills.

Born in a noble family, he had witnessed the top powerhouses and their battles.

Huo Tiejun believed he understood combat power in this world. Though Level 10 Powerhouses were strong, they were ultimately mortal; a single Level 10 wouldn't stand against a big company.

It's not that Level 10 Powerhouses aren't strong, but big companies have amassed wealth and can afford many failures. A lone Level 10 can only fail once.

On that point, the two sides aren't on the same starting line.

Huo Tiejun didn't regard individual combat power highly. Even the strongest have limits. Compared to big companies, they aren't much, unable to combat such terrifying forces.

Concerning Yuan Ling'Er's said key to changing fate, Huo Tiejun didn't pay much attention.

Yuan Ling'Er's foresight was vague. Just appearing, he'd give it a try.

Seen now, they may be overextending; Gao Xuan could possibly resolve them with just a sword strike.

Huo Tiejun was also a bit scared; aware of his responsibilities, he wasn't ready to die.

Yuan Ling'Er worriedly asked, "What do we do?"

"Contain him first, then explain everything."

Huo Tiejun did not want to face Gao Xuan with a sword directly, lest life and death fall into his control, leaving them no right to speak.

He activated the communicator, "Lock down the elevator, initiate top-level protection."

Subordinates promptly closed the elevator. Security doors on each floor sealed shut. All defense weapons were activated.

Personnel inside the building received orders to stay put and not leave.

Elite armed forces gathered toward the upper levels.

Within the building were over a thousand elite security personnel. The Asura Squad numbered only over a hundred; their destruction barely impacted Celestial Net Company's overall combat power.

Of course, the Asura Squad was the elite among elites, their easy destruction drastically affecting morale.

Thankfully, most battle personnel hadn't seen the live footage, completely unaware of the terrifying enemy they were facing, still maintaining relatively high morale.
