Chapter 215 - At the Brink of Life and Death!

Chapter 215: Chapter 214: At the Brink of Life and Death!Unexpectedly, among the four first-rate assassins, it could at least be confirmed that the towering man in black was from Japan, and he was also a master of the Beichen One-Blade Style from Japan. His strength was incredibly formidable, and even Zhang Yide wasn’t confident he could quickly defeat him.

Who would have thought that just when the towering man in black launched his lethal technique, Zhang Yide blocked it with the Superpower Steel Armor Skill, erecting a wall of steel with his Gold Element Superpower. This dismantled the flurry of blade shadows unleashed by the man in black.

Now, within the Zhang family’s courtyard, four men in black were launching an attack on Murong Yudou. Hei Mian and Zhang Yide were holding them off, with Zhang Yide intercepting the most skilled, towering man in black, while Hei Mian alone faced three first-rate assassins. Despite being at a slight disadvantage and sustaining some minor injuries, he wasn’t in serious trouble. However, he couldn’t keep this up for long. After all, everyone’s combat endurance is limited, and even a battle of attrition could wear Hei Mian down to death.

"Hold them off, they must not be allowed to disrupt!" Seeing the three men in black rushing toward the pharmacy, and being blocked by the towering man in black himself, Zhang Yide yelled to Hei Mian, unable to get past.

It must be said that as a warrior of the Heavenly Gang Level, Hei Mian’s strength was absolutely formidable. He had nearly ten blade wounds on his body, and although they weren’t serious, he was continuously bleeding. An ordinary person would have long lost their fighting capacity, but Hei Mian immediately charged forward, brandishing his sword to block the path of the three assassins.

"If you want to get through, you’ll have to get past me first!" At this moment, Hei Mian was also on fire, fully unleashing his strength.

"Kill him!" The towering man in black ordered the other three assassins while crossing blades with Zhang Yide.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

As soon as the towering man in black’s words fell, the blades in the hands of the three assassins also emitted streaks of cold light, a manifestation of their powerful Inner Strength. It was similar to the Sword Shadow Skill deployed by the towering man in black, and Hei Mian dared not take it lightly, for when the towering man in black had released a barrage of blade shadows towards Zhang Yide, it felt as though the air itself had been sliced open. Even the impregnable steel wall, fortified by the Superpower Steel Armor Skill, was instantly shattered by the blade shadows, which spoke volumes of their power.

"Be careful, this is one of the Absolute Skills of the Beichen One-Blade Style — Sword Shadow Frenzy Dragon!" Zhang Yide warned Hei Mian with a serious tone.

"Hmph, you old fool know quite a lot. It seems that today I have even more reason not to leave you alive!" The towering man in black was startled and continued to swing his Japanese military sword in an effort to cut down Zhang Yide right there.

"Thinking of killing me won’t be so easy!" Zhang Yide’s eyes twinkled with a sharp light as he put forth all his strength, not daring to be slightest bit careless. His opponent was a master of the Beichen One-Blade Style, and a single misstep could prove fatal.

When Hei Mian heard Zhang Yide’s words, he was also shocked and furrowed his brows. He had heard a bit about the Beichen One-Blade Style, which held an esteemed presence akin to the Chinese Shaolin Temple in Japan, wielding high influence. Just as the Shaolin Temple is the leader among Martial Arts Sects, the Beichen One-Blade Style holds such a position in Japan.

Whoosh! Whoosh, whoosh!

The three first-rate assassins in black not only swung their cold-gleaming blades at Hei Mian but also charged forward, intent on taking him down before bursting into the pharmacy.

"Come on!"

Hei Mian also roared, and with a loud bang, he shattered the military sword in his right hand. The blade cut across the palm, causing blood to drip down, but Hei Mian didn’t care at all. Instead, he focused his Inner Strength in his palms, rapidly gathering it there to control the hundreds of shattered blade pieces, flinging them all towards the three formidable assassins in black.

The broken blade pieces, sharp as tiny Blades, propelled by the powerful Inner Strength, shot towards the assassins with the velocity of a thunderbolt leaving no time to cover one’s ears. The three first-rate assassins never anticipated that Hei Mian had such a powerful move up his sleeve, and given the distance of less than three meters as they approached him, they had no time to dodge and could only try to deflect with their own blades.

Thud!

Thud!

Two assassins in black fell to the ground, tiny blade pieces having pierced their bodies. The one who suffered the most had been pierced straight through the heart and now lay trembling on the ground, awaiting death, stripped of his fighting power.

The remaining two black-clad assassins had all sustained some minor injuries and were somewhat surprised to see Hei Mian standing in front of them. They were all top-tier assassins from Japan, who had killed countless experts and power users. Their individual strength, as well as their combat experience, was formidable. They had never imagined that in China, there was such a powerful warrior who could alone block the three of them and even kill one.

"Dammit, what are you waiting for? Kill him and rush into the pharmacy..." The burly black-clad man, too, was shocked and became more anxious. This white-haired old man before him was already tough to deal with. If all three of his subordinates were killed, he feared that he would die there today because he absolutely could not withstand the combined attack of Zhang Yide and Hei Mian. He was very clear about this, so he was even more eager for his subordinates to rush into the pharmacy and thwart Ye Tianchen’s attempt to cure Murong Xin, so that he could take the opportunity to kill Murong Yudou.

"We must not let them break into the pharmacy!" Zhang Yide went all out, blocking the burly black-clad man’s assaults. Now, this was all he could do and hoped that Hei Mian could stop the remaining two assassins.

"If you have any issue, take it out on me. If you want to kill, just try to kill me!" Murong Yudou also said, looking at the burly black-clad man.

"Hahaha, Murong Yudou, you think you can save your granddaughter? Delusional! There’s no cure for the Detoxification Herb. You’re all going to die anyway, so let me send your granddaughter to hell ahead of time!" The burly black-clad man laughed heartily as he spoke, his hands constantly attacking the vital points of Zhang Yide.

At this moment, inside the pharmacy, Ye Tianchen was still holding Murong Xin in his arms. Both of them were naked, and Ye Tianchen could clearly hear the noise from outside. He knew that a master had come to attack Murong Yudou, and now they even wanted to break in, interrupting him as he cured Murong Xin of the poison. Under the current circumstances, he could not afford to be distracted. He felt the icy chill in his mouth, something was coming out from Murong Xin’s mouth, and success was close at hand; he absolutely couldn’t fail now!

Whoosh!

Ye Tianchen felt something that could freeze one’s bone marrow suddenly enter his body. He wasn’t concerned about any danger to himself, but rather relieved knowing that the Detoxification Herb had been drawn out of Murong Xin’s body. He somewhat admired the Divine Doctor Ghost Hand, Zhang Yide. The Detoxification Herb was extremely yin and cold, normally seeking only the bodies of females as hosts. Male bodies, with their yang energy, were naturally anathema to the herb, so it would not choose to reside within them. But because Zhang Yide had used six Golden Needles to seal several of Ye Tianchen’s acupoints, his masculine energy was reduced to an extreme. Moreover, the steam from the hot water in the large tub made the Detoxification Herb very uncomfortable, and sensing a better host outside, it left Murong Xin’s body and entered Ye Tianchen’s.

Suddenly, Ye Tianchen opened his eyes and slightly pushed away Murong Xin whom he had been holding naked in his arms, who was now somewhat lost in the moment. A trace of superpower emerged in his right hand, and he gently lifted Murong Xin out of the large tub.

At this time, Murong Xin also came to her senses. Seeing Ye Tianchen’s face turn extremely cold, almost frozen, she forgot that she was naked and hurriedly ran to the side of the big tub to ask urgently, "Are you alright?"

"It seems you’re fine now. Put on your clothes and go out. It will ease your grandfather’s mind!" Ye Tianchen quickly activated the superpower within his body to suppress the Detoxification Herb and prevent it from running wild.

"What about you..." Murong Xin snapped back to reality, realizing that she was standing in front of Ye Tianchen completely naked, with her curvaceous silhouette fully exposed, and her cheeks flushed. But seeing that Ye Tianchen had his eyes firmly closed, she felt somewhat relieved and suddenly thought that Ye Tianchen was quite a gentleman.

"Don’t worry, I can handle it myself. Just get out!" Ye Tianchen said in a low voice.

"No...I...I want to stay here, I want to see that you’re alright!" Murong Xin knew that Ye Tianchen had ended up like this entirely because of saving her, so she didn’t want to abandon him.

"If you don’t leave, I’ll just have to *rape you. And I mean it!" Suddenly, Ye Tianchen opened his eyes, lecherously staring at Murong Xin’s chest, swallowing his saliva as he spoke.

"I..." Murong Xin’s face turned deep red as she looked at Ye Tianchen and instinctively stepped back, at a loss for words.

"Go!" Ye Tianchen barked.

Startled by Ye Tianchen’s words, Murong Xin went to put on her clothes, still somewhat concerned as she glanced at Ye Tianchen a few times, and then slowly headed toward the pharmacy’s exit.

Seeing that Murong Xin was ready to leave, Ye Tianchen felt a lot more at ease. He could feel the Detoxification Herb reaching his stomach. If he didn’t suppress it now, it would likely pierce through his organs. He immediately activated the King Realm’s superpower in his entire body and forced out the six Golden Needles Zhang Yide had placed inside him. Only like this could he fully release his strength and force the Detoxification Herb out of his body.

From the very beginning, when he agreed to help Murong Xin remove the poison, Ye Tianchen had thought of this method. Given his King Realm superpower, he should be able to force out the Detoxification Herb. However, Ye Tianchen was not absolutely certain of success. Now, he could only give it his all. If he failed, he would lose his life as well... (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for it with recommendation tickets and monthly tickets at Qidian.
