Chapter 310: Seven? Seventh Rank?
Chapter 310: Seven? Seventh Rank?
The next second, a smile froze on Invincible's face as his right wrist was seized by Jiang Cheng, immobilizing him mid-air.
"?"
A huge question mark popped into his mind.
Before he could process further, Jiang Cheng's strength erupted, spinning him around 180 degrees.
"Crack!"
A bone-chilling sound echoed, followed by a heart-wrenching scream.
Invincible's entire right arm was torn off, revealing white bone fragments and gushing blood.
The scream startled Lone Wolf, who was not far away.
As it was night, and they were in the territory of the black market, the commotion had undoubtedly attracted the attention of many.
Not only nearby experts but even the guards might be rushing towards them.
"How did this guy manage this? He was supposed to knock someone out, not create such a ruckus!"
Lone Wolf cursed in his mind.
Wan Jianfeng, who was fighting with him, felt his heart skip a beat.
Apparently, like Lone Wolf, he had mistaken the source of the scream as Jiang Cheng.
A quick glance would have revealed the truth, but in such a situation, any distraction could have dire consequences.
Jiang Cheng threw the opponent's arm aside, his eyes flashing with cold determination. With a punch accompanied by a sonic boom, he struck the opponent's chest.
Invincible's eyes widened in shock.
He couldn't comprehend the situation; how could a Second Rank Force Knight possess such formidable combat power?
Fortunately, he had executed numerous tasks, some of which were life-threatening, and in the nick of time, he had activated a high-grade Vajra Talisman on his body.
"Boom!"
A muffled sound reverberated.
Jiang Cheng's punch struck the protective shield formed by the activated Vajra Talisman.
Then, to Invincible's disbelief, Jiang Cheng shattered the shield.
"You!"
Invincible's eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
The advanced Vajra Talisman, which cost 300,000, had just been shattered.
This couldn't be a mistake.
"Lone Wolf! Save me!"
Invincible, enduring the excruciating pain, turned and ran towards Lone Wolf, shouting for help with all his might.]
The high-grade Vajra Talisman was not like the basic ones, which cost 10,000 each. This was the only one he had, and he dared not use it unless absolutely necessary.
But now, his last resort was gone...
"???"
Lone Wolf was thunderstruck by the voice.
Was this Invincible's plea for help? Had he misheard?
Wan Jianfeng seized the opportunity and delivered a powerful kick.
Lone Wolf, startled, countered with a punch, and the two retreated a few steps, using the moment to glance behind them.
What they saw left them in disbelief.
Invincible, with a severed arm, was about to flee.
Jiang Cheng rushed forward and landed a punch on the opponent's back.
"Crack, crack!"
The sound of breaking bones echoed, and no one knew how many bones had been shattered.
Invincible spat out black blood, his body flying forward like a broken kite, landing over ten meters away in the grass.
He lifted his head, his pleading gaze meeting Lone Wolf's stunned eyes. He struggled to raise his left hand, but the next moment, he lost consciousness.
"???"
Wan Jianfeng was stunned, his mind going blank.
According to what Yang Chun had told him, the person he was protecting was only a Fifth Rank Force Knight, but this assassin was a Sixth Rank, and with their speed and strength being twice as powerful, the assassin should have easily defeated the knight.
Yet, the assassin had been defeated?
And to think it happened within such a short time frame?
What's going on here?
"Run!"
Gulong made a quick decision and turned to flee.
He knew his target was right before him.
But with the black market experts already alerted, continuing to stay here would only lead to trouble, especially with someone of similar strength to his own nearby.
Initially, he had intended to delay the other party, but now the tables had turned.
Of course, there was an even more critical point.
He realized that Jiang Cheng was not as simple as he seemed. To be able to kill an invincible opponent in such a short time meant that the latter might have been caught off guard, not using his full strength from the beginning.
But even if he was caught off guard, it was unlikely that he would be easily killed by a Force Knight below the sixth rank.
This kid, he was definitely not just a second rank! At least a sixth rank! Or even a seventh rank!
"Stop! Don't run!"
Wan Jianfeng reacted and hurriedly chased after Gulong.
But at that moment, several paths of broken air sounded, and in the night sky, something flashed by.
A white light flashed across Gulong's body, and he knew a skilled combat Mentalist had arrived. He quickly accelerated and ran forward.
"Ah!"
The next moment.
A scream of agony.
His legs were pierced by two flying knives, and he immediately fell to the ground.
"Catch him!"
Several figures appeared from all directions.
Gulong's face showed a look of despair, and then his eyes flashed with shock. He slapped his palm against his own head, committing suicide.
Several figures arrived a step too late, looking at each other in shock.
Wan Jianfeng also ran to Jiang Cheng's side and asked anxiously, "Zhang Cheng, are you okay? This time, it was my fault for not protecting you well enough and not discovering them in advance. You almost got into trouble."
"I'm fine."
Jiang Cheng smiled, "It's not your fault, Wan brother. You also helped me delay the strongest one. Otherwise, as a sixth rank Force Knight, I wouldn't stand a chance against them."
After saying this, he also felt strange in his heart.
These two people had been following him, and they were directly targeting him. But during this process, he didn't feel any hostility from them.
Even though his psychic energy was almost depleted, he shouldn't have felt nothing from them.
"En, I just broke through."
Jiang Cheng nodded.
"That's good."
Wan Jianfeng was relieved.
He was just puzzled. Why did they want to target Jiang Cheng?
At this moment, several figures approached.
"Jianfeng?"
Someone recognized Wan Jianfeng and asked, "What happened? Where did that person come from?"
Some also noticed the corpse on the lawn and the severed arm on the other side.
"I'm not too clear either. I only know there were two invaders, and one was killed by Zhang Cheng, that person. The other one, I couldn't stop him, but luckily, you guys stopped him." Wan Jianfeng said.
"Is that so."
The people who arrived didn't doubt much.
"What a bold move, to dare to invade here."
"Yes, it's a pity there's no survivor, otherwise we could find out their identities."
"Looking at how ruthless that person was, he's probably not a simple character, maybe a killer." The speaker looked at Jiang Cheng, feeling this matter was related to the latter.
"Let's call Yang Chun and let him handle this matter."
