Chapter 1373 - 1388: Reversal
Facing the simultaneous attack from the three top assassins, Celestial Silkworm, Lin Mu’s response seemed quite strained. Thud, thud... After jumping to the ground, Lin Mu suddenly pulled the dagger out from his leg, but it didn’t bleed anymore. Lin Mu took the opportunity to fly towards King Kong, cutting open the ropes tying him.
Without restraints, King Kong swayed his body briefly, then came next to Lin Mu, finally free from Celestial Silkworm’s control.
Lin Mu glanced at King Kong beside him and asked, "King Kong, are you alright?"
"I’m fine." King Kong pondered for a moment and asked, "What about you?"
"I’m good. Just a few daggers cannot take my life!" Lin Mu declared.
"I want to fight alongside you," King Kong stated.
"Heh, that would be great, couldn’t wish for more." Lin Mu smiled.
"Hmm," King Kong cast a confident glance at Lin Mu.
Using a dagger to cut King Kong free was indeed seeking his help. In this situation, handling the three experts, Celestial Silkworm and his group, on his own was too challenging. But with King Kong, it’s different. Although King Kong was injured, he had already taken the Divine Medicine, and temporarily he would be fine. Although his fighting power was somewhat diminished, he could barely handle one assassin, which was precisely the effect Lin Mu needed.
Lin Mu looked at Celestial Silkworm and said with a smile, "Come on, let’s see whether you three healthy men are stronger, or I, the injured one, am mightier!"
"Hmph! Overestimating your capabilities!" Celestial Silkworm sneered at King Kong, "King Kong, I’m giving you one last chance. If you repent now, there’s still time to join us in taking out Lin Mu, and all past offenses can be pardoned. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being merciless!"
Upon hearing Celestial Silkworm’s words, Lin Mu couldn’t help but chuckle. "What a joke," he thought. "What’s the point of these antics now? Does he think King Kong is an idiot?"
But King Kong was the taciturn type, not saying a word, preferring to demonstrate his thoughts through actions.
King Kong dragged his massive frame, charging compellingly at Celestial Silkworm.
As King Kong charged ahead, Lin Mu certainly wouldn’t remain idle. It was the prime time for the two to coordinate and attack. Only with both of them exerting effort simultaneously could they possibly take down Celestial Silkworm and his team.
King Kong surged forward like a meat shield, mounting a fierce attack at Celestial Silkworm, who used a similar trick, aiming a punch at King Kong’s belly, knowing it’s his weak spot.
However, Celestial Silkworm’s punch missed, as Lin Mu timely intervened, blocking the heavy strike. At this point, King Kong and Lin Mu coordinated, successfully grabbing Celestial Silkworm’s clothes, aligning a hefty one against a skinny one. Consequently, King Kong easily lifted Celestial Silkworm above his head.
With Lin Mu’s collaborative assault, the formidable King Kong lifted the frail Celestial Silkworm, without any suspense, and slammed him fiercely to the ground, dealing significant damage.
Thus, after King Kong lifted Celestial Silkworm, he adjusted to the best angle, then forcefully slammed him onto the ground, producing a booming sound. The earth seemed to tremble slightly, and Lin Mu couldn’t help but internally praise, "Wow, truly a fierce warrior!"
Celestial Silkworm slammed onto the ground was not fatally injured; he rolled several times and climbed back up. Although he managed that, his face looked grim. This hit certainly inflicted internal injuries, affecting both his confidence and combat strength.
Seeing this, King Kong wasted no time, charging at Celestial Silkworm again, following through with a momentum assault to break the enemy. Then, the other two assassins approached, yet standing before Lin Mu, they posed no threat. Faced with a mountainous figure like King Kong and Lin Mu, a genius master full of killing intent, these two assassins could only take a beating!
Lin Mu kicked the one in front in the belly, the other assassin tried to dodge but was caught by King Kong, who pinned him on the shoulder, delivering a punch as big as a sandbag, sending this assassin flying backward.
At this moment, Lin Mu and King Kong, bloodlust-fueled, formed a perfect pair, invincible together. Though both sustained injuries, the fierce fighting spirit bolstered their combat awareness, instead fostering more brutal fighting power. The two assassins instantly ****** fell to the ground, losing any ability to resist.
However, King Kong didn’t show the two assassins any mercy, stomping on them. On a battlefield, mercy towards the enemy translates to cruelty towards oneself. Lin Mu, as the Wolf Fang Soldier King, deeply understands this, and King Kong, as a bloodthirsty assassin, comprehends it equally.
"Wow, truly brutal!" Lin Mu remarked approvingly.
One can imagine, King Kong’s elephant-like foot stepping on the chest of these two assassins, and under the influence of hatred, he exerted all his strength.
The two assassins groaned, spurting a mouthful of fresh blood, immediately losing consciousness, leaving only Celestial Silkworm alone, struggling to stand. Celestial Silkworm furrowed his brows, his face looking grim. Having been fiercely smashed by King Kong earlier, he was already in a state of sorry decay. But now, with his helpers eliminated, he had no choice but to brace himself.
Celestial Silkworm roared and lunged at King Kong and Lin Mu.
Though Celestial Silkworm’s courage is commendable, daring to challenge the mighty King Kong and Lin Mu solo, reality dictates his strength differs vastly from theirs. This brave stance results merely in courting death!
Confronted by masters Lin Mu and King Kong, the injured Celestial Silkworm proves entirely vulnerable. In the next instant, a booming sound follows as Celestial Silkworm, pouncing ahead, gets kicked by Lin Mu and then punched down by King Kong.
Celestial Silkworm fell to the ground and struggled to utter something, but he’s already out of chances. King Kong quickly swung a dagger, thrusting it forcefully into Celestial Silkworm’s heart, avenging the earlier torment.
Celestial Silkworm groaned, his pupils began to dilate slowly, eventually exhaling lightly and swiftly ceased to breathe.
Thus, Celestial Silkworm got ruthlessly dispatched by King Kong, terminated by a single dagger.
The battle concluded, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"Honey, honey, are you alright?" Haihua ran over, worry etched across her face, she asked.
"Don’t worry, I’m fine, just minor injuries." Lin Mu replied with a smile.
"Honey, you’re amazing, love you so much." Haihua smiled playfully, seeing the assassins dealt with, her anxiously suspended heart also settled.
"A piece of cake!" Lin Mu smiled slightly, showing no modesty.
Afterward, Erwa led the cleanup of the scene. Subsequently, Lin Mu asked Erwa to round up the three hotel assassins too. As for disposal? Simple enough. Disable them and let them become beggars.
Since both King Kong and Lin Mu suffered knife injuries, Haihua found bandages to dress their wounds briefly. Given their exceptional skills, combined with ample medical care, there shouldn’t be a significant issue.
