The black shadow was getting closer and closer, and its hideous face gradually revealed.

It is shaped like a huge battleship, completely black, with strange runes all over its surface, emitting heart-pounding energy fluctuations.

"Oh no! It's the Shadow Assassin's vehicle - the 'Ghost Ship'!"

The Light Messenger's face suddenly changed and he cried out in surprise.

"Shadow Assassin?!"

The interstellar knight took a deep breath, tightened his grip on the lightsaber in his hand, and his eyes were full of fear.

He whispered to Zhang Cheng:

"Boy, the Shadow Assassins are not easy to mess with. They are ruthless and never leave anyone alive. Follow me closely and don't run around."

Zhang Cheng nodded, but he felt uneasy. He felt that this crisis was stronger than any other time.

Suddenly, a scream pierced the night sky.

The Guardian of Blue Star, the powerful elder who had always protected Zhang Cheng, fell down without any warning.

A bloody hole appeared on his chest, and blood gushed out, dyeing the surrounding stardust red.

"protector!"

Zhang Cheng exclaimed and rushed over.

Kelinda hurried to follow, worry written all over her face.

Others also gathered around, but were helpless.

The Blue Star Guardian's life force was rapidly dissipating. His eyes gradually dimmed and his lips trembled slightly. He seemed to want to say something, but in the end, no sound came out.

An atmosphere of sadness enveloped everyone.

The Star Knight pounded the ground hard and said through gritted teeth:

"Damn Shadow Assassin! I must avenge the Guardian!"

The Lightbringer also clenched his fists, his eyes filled with flames of anger.

The mysterious elf stood silently by, gently stroking the air with his slender fingers, as if sensing something.

She suddenly raised her head and her gaze fell on the depths of the stardust in the distance, and a strange light flashed in her eyes.

"I...sense his presence..."

The mysterious elf's emerald green eyes sparkled with a strange light, and her slender fingers drew complex tracks in the air, as if plucking invisible strings.

"I can sense his presence... deep in the nebula, he's hiding behind an abandoned satellite."

"Deep in the nebula?"

The Star Knight frowned.

"That is the secret base of the Obsidian organization. Could it be that the shadow assassin was sent by them?"

"That's right,"

The mysterious elf nodded affirmatively.

"I sense a strong sense of greed. They are here for the 'star core' in the nebula."

The core of a star is an extremely rare energy body in the universe. It contains enormous energy, enough to destroy a planet.

"'Black Obsidian' is indeed still intent on stealing!"

The Lightbringer roared, and golden light shone on him.

"We must not let them succeed!"

After saying that, the interstellar knight turned into a stream of light and rushed into the depths of the nebula.

The lightsaber in his hand cut through the darkness and pointed directly at the shadow assassin hiding behind the abandoned satellite.

However, the assassin was well prepared. With a flash of his figure, he easily dodged the attack of the interstellar knight and struck back with lightning speed.

"careful!"

The Lightbringer appeared in time and blocked the assassin's attack.

The two of them instantly tangled up in a fight, and the roar of energy collision resounded throughout the nebula.

Sword light and shadow intertwined, and the surrounding meteorite fragments were shattered by the energy waves.

Kelinda watched the fight nervously, her fists clenched tightly, her palms full of sweat.

Zhang Cheng stood beside her, brows furrowed, observing the shadow assassin's every move with sharp eyes.

The Shadow Assassin's attacks are swift and strange, as elusive as a ghost.

The sharp blade in his hand flashed with a dark light, and every swing carried a deadly threat.

Although the Star Knight and the Light Messenger are powerful, they cannot gain the upper hand for a while.

Zhang Cheng's eyes became more and more focused. He noticed that although the Shadow Assassin was extremely fast, there would be a short pause after each attack, as if he was accumulating energy.

"It's now……"

Zhang Cheng whispered to himself.

Zhang Cheng's eyes were fixed on the shadow assassin, like a cheetah staring at its prey.

He held his breath, waiting for the perfect moment.

The Shadow Assassin attacked again, his figure pounced on the Star Knight like a ghost.

At this moment, Zhang Cheng moved!

A powerful force burst out from under his feet, and his figure turned into a flash of lightning, rushing towards the shadow assassin at a speed that was difficult to capture with the naked eye.

"drink!"

With a low shout, Zhang Cheng's fist, packed with tremendous energy, smashed hard on the shadow assassin's back.

"Uh!"

The shadow assassin groaned, staggered, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

He obviously didn't expect that this seemingly ordinary Blue Star boy actually possessed such powerful strength and speed.

"Good job, Zhang Cheng!"

Seeing this, the Star Knight was greatly encouraged. The lightsaber in his hand shone even brighter, and he launched another fierce attack on the Shadow Assassin.

The Light Messenger also seized the opportunity, and a golden light flashed, forcing the Shadow Assassin back.

Both Clinda and the mysterious elf breathed a sigh of relief and smiled with joy on their faces.

However, the Shadow Assassin did not give up. He steadied himself, a sinister light flashing in his eyes.

"Humph, do you think you can defeat me like this? You are so naive!"

The Shadow Assassin sneered.

"My real target is him!"

He pointed at the Blue Star Guardian.

"what?"

Everyone was shocked and looked at the Guardian of Blue Star.

"Yes, he has the treasure our organization wants!"

The Shadow Assassin continued,

"As long as we get it, we can control the entire universe!"

The Blue Star Guardian's expression changed, and a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.

"What nonsense are you talking about? What treasure do I have?"

The Shadow Assassin ignored the Blue Star Guardian and continued to sow discord.

"Haven't you noticed? He has been hiding his strength all along! He is the real mastermind behind all this!"

Doubts began to arise in everyone's minds.

Zhang Cheng looked at the Shadow Assassin with a frown on his face. He felt that things were not that simple.

"Who are you? Why are you trying to sow discord between us?"

Zhang Cheng questioned.

The shadow assassin didn't answer, but just sneered.

"Humph, you will know the answer soon!"

Just when everyone was hesitating, a cold light flashed in the eyes of the shadow assassin... He turned around suddenly, and his target was - the mysterious elf!

The shadow assassin flashed like a black lightning and rushed straight towards the mysterious elf. Everyone was shocked, but because of their previous hesitation and suspicion, they reacted a little slower.

"careful!"

Zhang Cheng shouted and wanted to rush over to protect the mysterious elf, but was disrupted by the shadow assassin's feint.

The interstellar knight's lightsaber hummed, and a sharp sword energy slashed towards the shadow assassin, but he dodged it easily.

"Huh, what a small skill."

The Shadow Assassin snorted disdainfully, and his speed increased instead of decreasing.

The mysterious elf obviously didn't expect that she would become a target. She screamed and retreated quickly.

But she is not good at fighting after all, and her speed is far slower than that of the Shadow Assassin.

Seeing that they were about to be caught up, the Guardian of Blue Star finally took action.

A blue light flashed, and the Guardian of Blue Star stood in front of the mysterious elf, condensing an energy shield in his hand, barely blocking the attack of the Shadow Assassin.

"What on earth do you want to do?"

he asked in a deep voice.

"Take her life,"

The Shadow Assassin's tone was cold.

"By the way, take your stuff away."

Before the Shadow Assassin finished his words, a dagger suddenly appeared in his hand, flashing with a faint green light.

With lightning speed, he bypassed the energy shield and stabbed the mysterious elf.

"what!"

The mysterious elf let out a scream.

At the critical moment, Clinda appeared in front of the mysterious elf. She opened her arms and blocked the attack with her body.

"Klinda!"

Zhang Cheng's eyes were bloodshot and he roared.

The dagger pierced into Klinda's shoulder, and the green poison quickly spread. Klinda's face turned pale in an instant, and her body was shaking.

The shadow assassin sneered and was about to attack again, but suddenly felt a strong sense of oppression.

He looked up and saw the Messenger of Light radiating a dazzling light, like a god from heaven.

"Those who desecrate life will be punished!"

The Lightbringer's voice was majestic, carrying unquestionable power.

The shadow assassin's face changed slightly. He felt a powerful force locking him down, making him unable to move.

"Damn..."

He cursed under his breath, a fierce look flashing in his eyes.

He suddenly reached out his hand to Clinda's wound...
