Chapter 36.2: Absolute and Instantaneous Kill
"Which family"s elder brother could possibly be this thick skinned and shameless?" Yu Xiao Ning pouted, not wanting to bother about him.
"Did we come out today just to hear the two of you squabble?" Yan Ning Luo was getting impatient from hearing their quarrel, and she opened her mouth to interrupt icily.
The two siblings immediately clamped their mouths shut, but they immediately discovered something strange in the very next second.
The Crown Prince and Yan Ning Luo today….. They had really gotten along so peacefully for such a long period? From the time that they had come down from the horse carriage till now, at least an hour must have pa.s.sed. Those two there, were being rather unusual today.
"Erm…. In another few days, the Water Edge Kingdom"s emissaries will be arriving, and it has already been confirmed that the Duke of Vast Seas will be coming." Yu Jing Zhuo cleared his throat before he said, to dispel the awkward atmosphere a little. "I would think that they are not coming here with friendly intentions!"
"Ha! When was he ever capable of friendly intentions? That devil. He only came here once seven years ago and he destroyed half of this lady"s a.s.sets." Yu Xiao Ning complained as she picked up a fresh red fruit, and sinking her teeth into it vehemently to vent her frustration.
Xuanyuan Che glanced at her and then slowly opened his mouth to say: "The Duke of Vast Seas was already deep and unfathomable seven years ago. With these seven years that have pa.s.sed, it is not known what kind of a realm he could have reached. But what is certain is that upon this lands, I do not think that anyone is his match."
"Sigh. I wonder. How many generations worth of fort.i.tude the Water Edge must have kept for the Heavens to bless them with such an extraordinary figure to descend upon their lands." Yu Jing Zhuo lamented with a sigh.
Hearing them all discussing about the Duke of Vast Seas, Yan Ning Luo furrowed up her brows. "Is that person….. really that powerful?"
Xuanyuan Che had always been proud and aloof, and if even he was saying that, that person must really be very strong indeed.
When the others heard her ask that, they were all immediately taken aback before remembering back in those years, Yan Ning Luo had been in seclusion within the Faint Mist Sect, engaged in closed door cultivation with their Sect Leader, and was not aware of anything that happened in the outside world at that time.
Yu Jing Zhuo was just about to speak when the deck of the pleasure boat suddenly lurched violently, and the group of people almost tumbled out of the boat. Fortunately they were all people of cultivation and they quickly steadied themselves.
"What happened?" Yu Jing Zhuo roared loudly towards the outside in displeasure.
But even after several moments had pa.s.sed, no one answered him. Yu Jing Zhuo"s brows creased together and he stood up to walk outside, but was then met with the sight of the two attendants from before fallen to the deck, blood trickling out from the corners of their mouths, the shade of their faces an ugly colour.
He crouched down and checked the pulse one of the men at his neck. He was killed by a powerful force that snapped his meridians.
And at that moment, the lake"s surface had erupted into a chaotic mess. It was clear that not only their boat had people wounded or killed.
"Third Brother, what is happening outside?" Seeing that there was no response from him for so long, Yu Xiao Ning voiced out to ask.
"Ning Ning, all of you are not to come out!" Yu Jing Zhuo rushed inside to say.
His gaze then quickly scanned across the surface of the vast lake in search, to quickly discover that there seemed to be a commotion upon the largest pleasure boat on the lake, and the upheaval seemed to be rather violent.
Thereafter, a black shadow then came flying out from that boat to crash into the lake"s surface, the blue water that sprayed up with that splash dyed the colour of blood.
"Hmph! Overconfident fool." A figure in light blue suddenly appeared in his sight, the head of smooth black hair draped over the back, with wisps of blue strands hidden within, just faintly visible.
Yu Jing Zhuo narrowed his eyes. That young lady did not look to be from the Green Wave Kingdom!
On the opposite bank, several more black shadowy figures suddenly appeared, treading over the water"s surface as they approaching the boat, the tips of their toes just lightly touching the water, but were able to stand steadily on top without sinking.
Yu Jing Zhuo"s eyes widened as he stared. Every single one of those people seemed hold cultivation levels above his, like they were all well trained members from a organization of a.s.sa.s.sins.
"These people are Heavenly grade a.s.sa.s.sins from the Carefree Valley." It was not known from when Xuanyuan Che had come out from inside, and then went on to say in a deep voice as he looked at the people standing upon the lake"s surface.
