"Who are you?" Long Yi frowned and asked.
"Who are we? You don’t even know who you’ve offended? You really are pitiful!" one person said with a laugh.
"Don’t waste ti talking, kill him imdiately, to prevent any accidents," soone said in a deep voice.
Imdiately, one person pulled out a dark golden dagger, "I thought you were so incredible guy, but it turns out you’re just so-so."
As he said this, the dagger slashed towards Long Yi’s neck.
But Long Yi just laughed, "As a mage, your dagger-wielding skills are truly ugly."
As he spoke, Long Yi reached out and grabbed the dagger, catching the blade in the palm of his hand.
"Ugliness doesn’t matter, as long as it can hurt," the person said lightly, rotating the dagger while smiling, "This dagger was made using the knowledge of the Giants, you could get hurt like this."
But the dagger didn’t budge.
With a light tug, the dagger actually fell into his hand, "Have you not considered what you would do if you couldn’t break through my defense?"
Long Yi had obtained the Giants’ Armor gloves, which gave his hands an astonishing defense!
"This!"
The man was startled.
"Nothing is impossible!" Long Yi shook his hand, and the dagger stuck straight into the tal plate at his feet, the Array was destroyed, and Long Yi’s feet bounced out from within.
"What’s next, keep it coming," Long Yi gestured with his hands to the people surrounding him.
"Don’t get too cocky! Your strength has already been limited by the poison fog! You’re no match for us!" soone shouted.
"Then let’s give it a try, don’t forget this is a high-end residential area. From the mont you cast the first magic, you have only ten minutes to defeat . Once the ti is up, the guards will arrive promptly. If the whole Imperial City goes under martial law, I am very much looking forward to seeing you all scurry away like rats," Long Yi said with a wave of his hand, not caring at all.
"Don’t use magic! Long Yi can’t use magic now either! Use weapons directly!" soone shouted.
People imdiately pulled out their weapons, and Long Yi let out a chuckle.
"Comparing weapons with ?"
Long Yi raised his hand, and the Cosmic Stone Greatsword appeared impressively.
"Look at this huge Cosmic Stone Greatsword! Aren’t you ashad?"
Indeed, Long Yi’s own Mana was indeed sealed. But Long Yi still had the Cosmic Stone! The Mana provided by this Cosmic Stone was definitely not a joke!
"Run!" soone shouted loudly, turning to flee. Long Yi raised his hand, and a light arc swung out, "Don’t run! Stay and await your death!"
The people scattered and fled, with three people too slow, getting sliced into two by Long Yi, while the rest had already vanished without a trace.
Long Yi looked down at the bodies, opened the mask, and saw a stranger’s face. However, Long Yi didn’t need to know who this person was, as he could guess that these people must have been sent by Adaman.
The guard soldiers rushed over quickly, but everything was already over.
"Take these bodies for investigation; I want to know their origins by the afternoon."
The soldiers took the bodies away, and at that mont, the curse on Long Yi’s body gradually receded. Long Yi shook his head with a smile, thinking Adaman was indeed too impatient. But you should have co yourself, why send these students to fool ? Did you think they could defeat ? But on second thought, Long Yi also understood Adaman’s plan. Adaman didn’t know Long Yi well, so he kept sending these students to continuously test Long Yi’s strength. It’s truly despicable for soone called an Ancient Powerhouse to be so cowardly.
Long Yi shook his head as if nothing had happened and continued on his way.
At that ti, in a secret cabin, several people hurried back in a panic, while those who had administered the poison were already waiting inside.
"Did it succeed?" the poisoners asked anxiously.
"No, it failed. Long Yi always has the Cosmic Stone Greatsword on him; unless we can prevent him from opening his personal space, the power of that Cosmic Stone Greatsword..." A sigh, thinking it was an opportunity, Long Yi’s life was almost within reach, but they couldn’t succeed.
"It’s okay, Little Zi should have already brought those fruits back by now; we just have to wait for Long Yi to finish eating them, and soon we’ll hear news of his death," another group of people consoled.
Just at that mont, there was a sudden knock at the door, with a rhythm matching the agreed-upon signal.
"Soone else has escaped!"
One person hurried to open the door, but when it swung open, he was shocked into stillness.
Outside the door, Little Zi was smiling like a blossoming flower at them.
"Good morning, gentlen, I’ve co to bring you so fruit," Little Zi said as she walked into the room.
"Attack!" a person roared, ready to make a move, when suddenly a wave of psychic energy hit and everyone found they could no longer control themselves.
"Don’t be like that; these fruits are very expensive. It would be a sha if they got damaged, right?"
The familiar fruits appeared from Little Zi’s private space, hovering in front of everyone.
"Alright, let’s start eating!" Little Zi clapped her hands. The people imdiately, involuntarily reached out and grabbed the fruit in front of them.
"Don’t! I beg you! Miss Little Zi! Please don’t... don’t..." So people began to plead, but soon their mouths moved beyond their control. They opened wide, biting off half in one go, chewing carefully before swallowing. After the second bite, a whole fruit had gone down their throats.
"How does it taste?" asked Little Zi with a smile, as she turned and left the room. The others were in excruciating pain, unable to struggle or even make a sound. Their bodies gradually stiffened, and in the end, they all turned into black charred corpses!
Little Zi returned to the villa and told Long Yi about what had happened. Long Yi just curled his lip and told Little Zi that an assassination attempt had occurred at the sa ti. Alard, Little Zi imdiately decided she must stay with Long Yi at all tis, and from now on, she would delegate the shopping to her Avatar.
Long Yi laughed at Little Zi’s alarmist reaction, but she insisted on it.
Before long, the investigation report about those involved at the mont was delivered to Long Yi. Most of them had no significant connections, but their teachers shared one thing in common: those people were either students of Adaman, or students of Adaman’s students.
Upon seeing this investigation report, Saint Danze trembled with fury. He was well aware that Adaman probably didn’t like Long Yi, but he never imagined Adaman would actually send soone to assassinate Long Yi! He urgently summoned Landers, but Landers simply said, "If the Master wants soone dead, what can I possibly do?"
Landers received news of Long Yi’s assassination attempt as soon as it happened, and he was not at all surprised that these people were counter-killed by Long Yi. They were foolish enough to disperse their already not-so-strong forces to go after two individuals—especially since they had targeted Little Zi!
Who is Little Zi? She’s a Female Demon! Although in this Plane there are hardly any truly powerful Female Demons, you can’t simply disregard them just because you haven’t seen a strong one! Little Zi is just too powerful! If Landers didn’t feel too threatened by the sight of the little Female Demon dressed in a fancy maid’s outfit before, the girl now clothed in a black, skintight dress with a little apron and high heels was enough to extinguish any notion of resistance in him! She was too strong, really too strong, even the slightest hint of Mana that occasionally surfaced was enough to send chills down Landers’ spine. It felt as though the energy of a massive Cosmic Stone was erupting in front of him!
If possible, Landers really didn’t want to be enemies with Long Yi. But as a student of Adaman, he had no choice but to follow his teacher’s directives. Now, he could only try to do nothing, neither provoking Long Yi nor offending his teacher. As for those idiots who ca seeking their own deaths, Landers had not a shred of sympathy for them.
In the following month, assassins started showing up incessantly. As Long Yi walked along the roads, people would erge out of nowhere, using traps or curses. Their thods were diverse, but their objective single: to kill Long Yi!
Ever since that assassination attempt, Little Zi was always by Long Yi’s side. Whenever an assassin appeared, she would imdiately use powerful Magic to strike them down. Most of the ti, the Magic Little Zi used was none other than the Ship Cannon Technique invented by Landers himself!
Each ti Landers saw Little Zi use the Ship Cannon to shatter the assassins one by one, he felt a strong sense of powerlessness. When his own apprentice had used the Technique, it had been nothing more than a joke, yet in Little Zi’s hands, it displayed such terrifying might!
For a month, the assassins kept coming, wave upon wave. Eventually, they realized that their attempts were equivalent to suicide. And so, for a while, the area around Long Yi quieted down.
The days of going out to fight every day and coming ho to another fight suddenly disappeared, leaving Long Yi and Little Zi feeling very unaccustod. So one day, Long Yi simply decided to visit Landers at ho. Seeing Long Yi and Little Zi, Landers felt his heart skip a beat. Instinctively feeling that Long Yi might have co to settle accounts, he couldn’t help but wonder, as he had hardly done anything recently, had he?
"Master Landers! I’ve co to consult you on a matter!" Long Yi said with a beaming smile from afar.
"What is it, Mister Long Yi?" At this point, Landers didn’t dare to claim the status of Master and directly addressed Long Yi as Sir. He also glanced at Little Zi, who appeared to be smiling and didn’t look like she was about to kill anyone.
"Actually, the recent assassination attempts against have ceased, and I’m finding it very disconcerting. I was wondering when they will resu?" Long Yi asked.
Landers thought he had misheard, but when it was confird that Long Yi wasn’t being sarcastic, Landers couldn’t help but reply with a wry smile, "Mister Long Yi, with what you’ve said, how am I supposed to answer...."
"No worries, no worries, you don’t have to tell how they plan to kill , I’m just bored lately, so I ca to ask you specifically. Additionally, I’d really like to know where your teacher Adaman is hiding. Considering how he’s looked after all this ti, it wouldn’t be like not to pay him a visit and express my gratitude personally."
This question put Landers in an even more difficult position. Was he supposed to tell Long Yi Adaman’s planetary whereabouts so Long Yi could seek vengeance? That was even less possible!
"Master, I think this question is a bit too demanding. Since Adaman has so many students, why don’t you just tell us who else knows where Adaman is? That way, you won’t be betraying your teacher, and we’ll be able to visit Adaman smoothly. How suitable is that?" Little Zi suggested from the side.
Is there a difference?
Landers sighed deeply. (To be continued. If you enjoy this work, please visit qidian to cast your votes for recomndation and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please go to m.qidian to read.)
