The Legend of the Netherworld

Chapter 55 Assassination

Lin Xiao's dagger, with its fierce force, stabbed into the wolf king's abdomen at lightning speed.

The Wolf King's attention was completely drawn to the map in his hand, and he was completely unaware of the crisis around him.

As a powerful cultivator in the first level of transformation, he never thought that a cultivator in the sixth level of Jiazi would dare to attack him, and he never expected that he would be ambushed.

The dagger pierced the wolf king's belly easily, and the sharp blade pierced the wolf king's belly in an instant.

Lin Xiao did not stop at all, and thrust the dagger upwards, ready to rip open the wolf king's belly.

However, although the Wolf King was attacked by surprise, he reacted extraordinary. He let out an angry roar and raised his hand to slap Lin Xiao's shoulder.

After being hit, Lin Xiao took several steps back, tightly gripping the dagger with both hands. In an instant, he pulled the dagger out, and green blood flowed out from the wolf king's wound.

The wolf king's roar was deafening. He covered his wound with his hands, but the green blood not only seeped out, but also continued to corrode the flesh around the wound, making a sizzling corrosion sound.

It turned out that Lin Xiao was well prepared. The dagger was coated with the highly toxic juice obtained from the vine explosion during the previous battle, which was extremely corrosive.

Lin Xiao watched the scene coldly. Seeing that the Wolf King was seriously injured but not dead, he immediately planned to attack again. He used the Dragon Swimming Across the Seas movement and moved as fast as lightning, approaching the Wolf King again, the dagger pointed directly at the Wolf King's heart.

The Wolf King endured the severe pain and dodged quickly. At this moment, Lin Xiao stepped on the map that the Wolf King had dropped due to his injury. He bent down to pick it up and put it away.

But this action exposed a flaw. Seeing the Wolf King injured, the wolves began to get restless, and the Wolf King's left lord had already rushed over with a saber. The saber was blazing with ghostly fire, and it shone coldly as it slashed towards Lin Xiao.

Lin Xiao reacted quickly and blocked the fierce attack with his dagger.

Sparks flew as the blades clashed, but Lin Xiao instantly felt a scorching heat coming from the dagger. He immediately exerted force and lifted it, and both sides retreated several steps. The Wolf King took the opportunity to sit cross-legged and began to meditate to heal his wounds.

Lin Xiao didn't dare miss this opportunity. He immediately summoned his hidden weapon, and a long sword appeared in his hand, its edge flashing with a cold gleam. His steps were light and his phantom form allowed him to approach the Wolf King like a ghost.

However, just as he was about to deliver the fatal blow, the Wolf King's Right Lord blocked the Wolf King's path with twin halberds, their tips gleaming with ghostly flames. The Right Lord said coldly, "If you want to kill my brother, you'll have to get past me first."

After saying that, the right lord suddenly thrust out the double halberds in his hands, his movements as fast as lightning.

After the tip of the halberd was thrust out, it instantly split into countless cold rays, flying towards Lin Xiao and blocking all his attack routes.

Seeing this, Lin Xiao knew that he couldn't fight head-on, so he lowered his body and rolled backwards quickly to avoid the flying thorns of the double halberds.

He found that although the flying halberd had a wide range, it was only a short-range attack, about an arm's width. He seized the opportunity, used his body skills to circumvent the attack, and prepared to raid the Wolf King.

However, just as he dodged sideways, Lord Zuo's saber slashed towards Lin Xiao again with a phantom fire.

Lin Xiao swung his sword, and the sword edge collided with the saber again. The power of the two surged in the air and bounced off each other.

At this moment, he decided to fight quickly and decisively, so he used the "Continuous Rain of Swords". Countless spiritual swords gathered behind him, and with a wave of his hand, the rain of swords flew towards the Wolf King like a storm.

The lords on both sides were shocked and did not dare to delay. They waved their double halberds and sabers together to block all of Lin Xiao's sword rain. A series of clanging sounds erupted in the air, and sparks flew from the collision of swords and weapons.

Just as the lords on both sides were trying their best to block the rain of swords, an untransformed wolf demon bared its fangs and pounced on Lin Xiao from the darkness!

Lin Xiao's figure flashed by, avoiding the wolf demon that was rushing towards him. The long sword suddenly pierced into the wolf demon's abdomen with a hint of cold light. He felt the sword blade penetrate the hard fur and pierce into the internal organs.

The wolf demon let out a scream, and blood gushed out like a fountain, spilling onto Lin Xiao's robe.

Immediately afterwards, another wolf demon opened its bloody mouth, its sharp teeth flashing coldly, and pounced towards him quickly.

Lin Xiao's mind moved, and the sword energy instantly burst out. The sharp sword energy was like a whirlwind, instantly splitting the wolf demon's head in half. Without even turning his head, Lin Xiao's eyes were filled with cold murderous intent as he approached step by step.

He caught a glimpse of Zhang Wentian and others out of the corner of his eye. The four of them were now surrounded by wolves, with sharp weapons on their necks, unable to move.

Zhang Wentian's eyes were filled with anxiety and helplessness, while the others were terrified, with beads of sweat rolling down their foreheads.

The wolves' encirclement became tighter and tighter, and more wolf monsters pounced on Lin Xiao from all directions.

He could only keep dodging while waving his sword to fight back. The sword light was like frost, and wherever it went, the wolf demons screamed and were chopped away.

However, these wolf demons seemed to be endless, coming in waves, unafraid of death.

Lin Xiao cut off the forelimb of a wolf demon that was rushing towards him with a sword. Blood splattered on his face, but he seemed not to feel tired. Instead, he became more and more courageous, and the murderous intent in his eyes became more and more intense.

"This feeling of killing is really addictive." A surge of excitement and desire to fight surged in his heart.

With each strike of his sword, the wolf demon's howl and the splatter of flesh and blood gave him a sense of exhilaration. The sword in his hand seemed to grow sharper with his emotions, slicing through the enemy's flesh and blood.

Suddenly, a deafening roar echoed in his ears. The Left Wolf Lord swung his massive saber, the blade ablaze with ghostly fire, and slashed down at Lin Xiao.

Lin Xiao quickly dodged sideways, and then the Left Wolf Lord jumped up and performed a whirlwind slash.

He only felt the airflow suddenly become violent, and the body of the Left Wolf Lord seemed to turn into a rotating sharp blade, attacking him with extremely fierce momentum.

"You're just in time!" A cold light flashed in Lin Xiao's eyes. He used the sword formation to protect his body. The spirit sword condensed in the air and blocked the whirlwind attack.

However, the power of Lord Zuo Lang was too strong. The huge impact force made Lin Xiao retreat repeatedly. The ground under his feet was shattered and dust flew.

Before he could catch his breath, the Right Wolf Lord used the Phantom Fire Earth Explosion Slash, holding up his double halberds, and the Phantom Fire continued to condense between the two halberds.

Then, the twin halberds came crashing down from the air with ferocious force, striking Lin Xiao's back. Lin Xiao's pupils shrank slightly, and he instantly realized the lethality of this attack.

He immediately poured all his strength into the sword, and with a powerful blow, he deflected the saber in front of him. Then he activated the Dragon Swimming Across the Seas technique, and his figure flashed out of the attack range like lightning.

With a loud bang, the double halberds of the Right Wolf Lord smashed a deep pit in the ground. A phantom fire rose from the pit, and the aftermath was like an earthquake, shaking the surrounding wolf monsters to howl incessantly. Many wolf monsters were even injured or killed by the shock wave.

Although Lin Xiao dodged in time, he was still shocked and fell to one knee, with his sword inserted into the ground to support his body.

He took a deep breath, the sweat dripping from his forehead flowed down his cheeks, but his eyes revealed a murderous intent.

"It seems that some things can no longer be hidden." Lin Xiao slowly stood up and gripped the long sword in his hand. The sword body flashed with cold light in the dim light.

His eyes were cold and resolute, and murderous intent surged like a tide.

At this point, Zhang Wentian and the others were no longer willing to surrender. Having witnessed Lin Xiao's battle, they felt that if they fought today, they would die. Zhang Wentian roared, pouring all his strength into his feet. He stomped the ground hard, knocking the surrounding wolf demons to the ground.

He picked up the weapon dropped by the wolf demon, and together with Wu Qianzi and Li Tie, he fought his way out and charged towards the left and right wolf lords.

Zhang Wentian ripped the jade pendant off his neck and threw it at Lin Xiao with all his might, shouting, "Benefactor, hurry up! We'll help you hold them back!"

Lin Xiao was stunned. He took the pendant and felt the weak spiritual power contained in the jade pendant.

He stared at the fearless expressions of Zhang Wentian and the others, and his heart tightened. He sighed and said, "Ah, I will help you redeem your wives and children in the future."

He turned around, swung his sword, and the spiritual sword burst out instantly. The sword energy was like a rainbow, cutting through the wolves that surrounded him, leaving a bloody path.

Lin Xiao knew that he had to take this opportunity to evacuate.

However, the battle situation changes rapidly.

Zhang Wentian rushed forward desperately, brandishing his weapon to fight against Lord Zuolang, but his strength was no match for his opponent. The saber in Lord Zuolang's hand flashed and instantly pierced Zhang Wentian's heart.

Zhang Wentian's eyes widened, blood flowed from the corners of his mouth, and he slowly fell down.

Liu Xiang was shocked when he saw this and couldn't help but look back, but this moment of distraction made him pay a fatal price.

The right wolf lord took the opportunity to attack, and his double halberds with phantom fire instantly cut Liu Xiang in half.

Screams echoed across the platform as Zhang Wentian and Liu Xiang collapsed, their blood covering the ground. Li Tie and Wu Qianzi fought back desperately, but ultimately, under the siege of the wolves, they collapsed in a pool of blood.

At this time, the Shadow Wolf King, who was meditating to heal his wounds, slowly opened his eyes.
