Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Jordan was startled and immediately jumped back to dodge the attack. But the sharp dagger cut a slit in his pants and almost cut his calf.
Under the streetlights, the dagger in that man’s hand flickered with a bluish light. It had obviously been coated with poison, and a minor cut by it would probably be fatal.
How vicious!
Jordan’s expression immediately became grim. The slightest mistake or negligence would cause him to die here!
The pet.i.te and thin a.s.sa.s.sin got out from under the car. He was clad in an all-black outfit with a black ski mask on his face, covering his head well, revealing only his sharp eyes.
!!
Although he was thin, he was very agile. Especially when he was wielding the poison-coated dagger, his moves were sharp and ruthless, and he would often attack the spots hardest to defend. He was obviously a professional a.s.sa.s.sin.
When Lucas saw this scene, his pupils suddenly constricted. Staring at the white-bearded old man, he hollered furiously, “You actually hired such a vicious a.s.sa.s.sin!”
The a.s.sa.s.sin’s speed and moves were extremely vicious and shrewd, and the slightest negligence from his targets would be lethal. He was definitely sent by an extraordinarily powerful a.s.sa.s.sin organization.
The white-bearded old man smiled coldly. “That’s right! As long as I can achieve my goal, hiring a few a.s.sa.s.sins is no big deal!
“If you continue fighting with me, your friend will really get killed by the a.s.sa.s.sin!”
Lucas’s eyes showed astonis.h.i.+ng killing intent. “In that case, I don’t need to keep you alive!”
At first, Lucas didn’t want to offend the Whitleys badly or kill the old man. All he wanted was to find out about his mother’s secret from Jace. If Jace was willing to explain truthfully, he wouldn’t mind letting them off.
But the white-bearded old man actually hired such a powerful and vicious a.s.sa.s.sin to kill them. In that case, Lucas wouldn’t spare his life.
Even though the old man had lived for decades, he couldn’t help feeling fear and panic facing Lucas’s terrifying killing intent. He gritted his teeth and said, “To tell you the truth, the a.s.sa.s.sin I found is from Flame Dragon, one of the top five international a.s.sa.s.sin organizations! Your friend is no match for him at all!
“If you continue fighting with me here instead of saving your friend, he’ll definitely die!”
But Lucas remained standing still without any intention of helping Jordan.
He looked at the white-bearded old man and sneered. “It seems like you don’t know me at all, and you’ve severely underestimated my friend’s abilities.
“I might as well tell you the truth. I’m actually no stranger to Flame Dragon, and my friend has killed the top a.s.sa.s.sin of their organization!”
Hearing this, the old man immediately turned pale and exclaimed in horror, “How is that possible?”
If Lucas said that he had killed the top a.s.sa.s.sin of Flame Dragon, the old man would still be able to believe it.
But he couldn’t believe that Jordan had killed the top powerhouse of Flame Dragon because Jordan was just Lucas’s subordinate!
If even one of Lucas’s subordinates had such strength, how skilled must Lucas be?
“That’s absolutely impossible!”
Lucas didn’t bother to explain it to him and just said coldly, “It’s up to you whether you believe it or not. Now, it’s time for you to go to h.e.l.l!”
Then he attacked the white-bearded old man who had just gotten up from the ground again!
The old man stood rooted to the ground with a horrified expression, as he discovered Lucas’s aura was extremely strong. He was just like an intense typhoon that carried a devastating oppressive force.
In front of Lucas, he was just like a small boat floating on the sea. In the face of such a violent storm, his only fate would be to be swept away and torn apart by the storm!
“Die!”
Before he could even move, Lucas’s figure had already appeared in front of him and slammed his fist onto his chest once again with speed and strength that was beyond his imagination.
This time, Lucas didn’t hold back. The destructive force in his fist had shattered all the ribs of the old man’s chest, forming a huge dent in it!
The old man opened his mouth and spurted out a mouthful of blood as his body flew far away like a kite with a broken string before cras.h.i.+ng hard on the ground.
But this time, it was impossible for him to stand up again!
“Who… exactly… are you?” The white-bearded old man raised his head from the ground with immense difficulty and looked at Lucas in a bid to find out something from him.
But Lucas had already turned around and walked away without looking at him.
The old man opened his mouth reluctantly, but he could no longer make a sound.
In his vision, Lucas’s figure was gradually becoming blurry. Finally, everything turned into pitch-black darkness.
The old man’s eyes lost their last l.u.s.ter. His head lolled to the side, and he died.
Even until he died, he still didn’t know Lucas’s true ident.i.ty.
Who knew if he had a trace of regret at the last moments before death?
…
On the other side, Jordan and the black-clothed a.s.sa.s.sin from Flame Dragon were also fighting intensely.
Although that black-clothed a.s.sa.s.sin’s movements were very agile and insidious, and he was holding a poison-coated dagger that no one should come into contact with, Jordan was extremely powerful too. Despite exerting all his strength, the a.s.sa.s.sin couldn’t hurt Jordan at all, shocking him greatly.
“Hurry up and deal with him,” Lucas said coldly after walking over. Then he walked away.
While Lucas was fighting with the white-bearded old man and Jordan was dealing with the black-clothed a.s.sa.s.sin who suddenly appeared, Jace had quietly gotten out of the other side of the car and fled in panic.
He knew that he probably couldn’t get far on his own, so he was smart enough to hide in a pile of garbage at the side and cover himself with some large garbage bags.
But Lucas saw these actions.
After hearing Lucas’s urging, Jordan immediately agreed. His movements when exchanging blows with the black-clothed a.s.sa.s.sin suddenly became much faster, and his entire body was full of battle intent.
“No!” The a.s.sa.s.sin’s eyes flashed with an intense sense of fear and crisis.
The mission he had received was to try to stall Jordan and try to kill him if possible.
But when he really made a move, he realized that the young man in front of him was not easy to deal with at all. He couldn’t even hurt Jordan with a surprise attack with his poisoned dagger.
Now that Lucas had already dealt with the white-bearded old man and walked over, if it became two against one, his situation would become worse!
