Still Shi Yan was an expert and soone that could pass the Hunters Exam, which ant that he had so skills at least.
His hands imdiately ca up and in them were a pair of daggers that he used to block the bone white dagger that was in front of his face.
The mont his daggers clashed with the white dagger, there was a faint mont of balance between the two forces before he was actually pushed back a few steps. Still, in the end, he was able to deflect the dagger that had appeared in front of him, sending it flying into the air.
Shi Yan didn't hesitate at all after blocking that attack, flying out with his daggers brandished, but what t him was a giant white blade that slashed down at him.
Shi Yan tried to lift his daggers up to parry it, but the blade was just too heavy for him to parry. The montum of the giant blade fell down on him and he would have been crushed if he didn't twist his body at the last second, dodging the mighty blow of the giant blade.
However, even if he had been able to avoid the blow of the blade in the end, he wasn't able to avoid the injuries caused by the shockwave of the blow. Still, he was able to keep those injuries light as he had avoided most of the blow.
When the blade fell onto the ground, there was a giant hole that was created there.
The streets of Harmony City were specially paved in tiles that were made from special materials. It was done this way because Harmony City was a city of cultivators and fights between them were common.
If they had to repair the city every ti soone fought, the costs would be enormous.
So they specially made the streets out of a material that was hard to break, so that they wouldn't need to repair it every single ti.
But now Lin Fan was able to crack the tiles on the floor with a single slash, which showed just how powerful his attack was.
Shi Yan looked at the hole Lin Fan left in the ground before turning to look at the sword in Lin Fan's hand with a surprised look.
He could tell from the aura coming from it that this was a Child Soul Realm Artifact, but he couldn't understand where Lin Fan had gotten a Child Soul Realm Artifact from.
Still this wasn't the ti for hesitation since his life was in danger.
He knew that it would be a bad idea to face Lin Fan head on since in terms of power, he was inferior, so there was only one choice left for him.
Without any hesitation, Shi Yan turned and ran.
He wasn't certain if he could get away, but at the very least, he would be drawing Lin Fan into his tempo by using this move. Lin Fan clearly wouldn't let him escape, so the first thing he would do was chase after him.
However, by chasing after him, he would leave openings for himself, openings that Shi Yan could take advantage of.
So while he was running, Shi Yan also made sure to keep an eye on what was happening behind him.
Lin Fan saw this and shook his head.
The giant sword in his hand quickly turned into a pair of daggers that he imdiately threw out at Shi Yan.
Since Shi Yan had been watching, it was easy for him to dodge these daggers. He then waited for Lin Fan to make his next move, but as far as he could see, Lin Fan was just standing there without doing anything which confused him. However, none of that mattered to him.
If Lin Fan wasn't going to do anything, then he would seize this chance to escape.
He was about to turn around and focus on escaping when he suddenly felt a sense of danger in front of him.
Since he had been looking behind him to see what Lin Fan was planning on doing, he had released his spiritual sense in front of him just in case there was anything there. He hadn't expected to sense anything, but now there was a strong sense of danger that was in front of him.
The mont he turned, he saw that there was a pure white dagger covered in five different lights that was already right in front of him, aid at his chest.
With the speed that the dagger was moving at, it was almost impossible for him to dodge, so his only choice was…
Shi Yan imdiately twisted his body to the side as the dagger pierced into his flesh, but they didn't fully go into his body. Still, with the montum that the daggers had, they pushed him downwards, pushing him right to the ground below.
What Shi Yan had done was twist his body at the very last second so that the daggers didn't stab him in a fatal area, but that didn't an that he had negated all the damage. The other thing that he had done was boost his life energy armour as much as he could to negate the damage, but that armour had been pierced right through by this dagger.
He could tell that from the force of the blow, several of his ribs had cracked and even his organs had been knocked out of place, but at least he was still alive.
Still, that didn't an that Lin Fan's assault was over.
When Shi Yan fell to the ground, there was a white sword that was smaller than the previous giant white sword that fell down, aid right at his neck.
Shi Yan had the wind knocked out of him from the dagger stabbing him and he had been knocked to the ground, so he didn't have proper footing. In this position, the only thing that he could do was bring his arms up to block the sword that fell down.
He didn't even have his daggers anymore since he had lost his grip the mont the dagger had stabbed him.
This sword that was covered in the sa five glows as the dagger just now fell without any impedint. It cut right through the arms that he had raised to block it and continued falling over his neck.
However, right before it cut through his neck, the sword suddenly stopped. At the mont it stopped, the sword was only less than a centiter away from his skin.
There was a look of pure anguish that appeared on Shi Yan's face, but his ntal will was strong enough that he was able to stop himself from screaming. However, it was clear from the look on his face just how much pain he was feeling.
After all, having both arms cut off wasn't a light injury.
That look of anguish lasted five seconds on Shi Yan's face before he looked up at the person holding the sword at his neck with a look of rage. There was also a trace of fear that appeared in those eyes at that mont.
He had clearly sensed that the other side was only in the Low Embryo Soul Realm, but this person had been able to dominate him in a battle.
He didn't even know how that dagger had been able to appear in front of him.
He knew that he had dodged both the daggers, so why was there a third dagger?
But this wasn't the mont to consider this. The most important thing to do now was to ensure that he would keep his life because if he lost his life, then it would all be over.
So after having that look of rage for a few seconds, Shi Yan's expression imdiately beca calm as he asked, "What do you want?"
This was the bare minimum that he had confidence in. After all, that person could have clearly cut through his neck just like he had cut through his arms, but he had stopped at the very last second. That must an that he wanted sothing from him, which ant that there was room to negotiate.
Lin Fan didn't respond right away, leaving a small pause to build tension in Shi Yan before saying, "What are your plans?"
Shi Yan slightly knitted his brows before asking back, "What plans do you an?"
Lin Fan calmly said, "Ancient Era Ruins."
This ti, Shi Yan didn't miss a beat as he said, "What other plans could we have? We found an Ancient Era Ruin and now we're excavating it. Isn't that what any normal person would do? After all, who doesn't want to beco stronger?"
Lin Fan didn't answer any of this as he asked, "Then what about the Assassins Association? Are they also part of your group?"
Shi Yan deeply knitted his brows this ti.
He knew that this question was a rhetoric, he wasn't actually asking if the Assassins Association was working with them, rather he knew that they were.
But that was what confused him since he and Lei Feng had made sure that the partnership that they had with the Assassins Association had remained a secret. There shouldn't have been anyone that had known about this.
The only ti that the Assassins Association had been involved was when they had been moved to attack Lin Fan, but that could be considered normal too since hiring assassins was the normal way of getting rid of soone…
So how did they know that the Assassins Association was working with them?
