Bang!
The killer's right foot stepped onto Zheng Xiaotian's chest.
"Ah!" Zheng Xiaotian's head turned to the right, and a mouthful of blood spewed out. He truly underestimated the other party's combat power.
"See, I asked you early on if you were going to release the armor, but you said no. There's a proverb that fits this moment perfectly: if you don't seek death, you won't die," the butler said.
"Don't give me that crap," Zheng Xiaotian's mood was not good.
"Based on my scan of you, now, he has injured your chest, which is your energy control center. If this is destroyed, first, you can't use your cultivation. Second, you can't summon the armor," the butler said.
"Nani?" Zheng Xiaotian was shocked. Not being able to use his cultivation was one thing, but the armor was a means of survival. If he couldn't summon the armor, it would be a complete disaster.
"You can understand it as the armor being retracted into your body, mainly by turning it into a thin film. If your body is fine, it would be okay. The key is, your ribs are dislocated. If the armor is summoned, several of your ribs will be pushed out, and you'll hear the sound of 'pu pu pu.' Then, blood will gush out uncontrollably. So, it's not that you can't summon it, but it's not recommended," the butler said.
"Kid, don't blame me," the killer raised his right hand, and a dagger appeared in his palm again. At this moment, the dagger was gleaming with a cold light. The man continued, "I just want to say, each of us serves our own master. The higher-ups want you dead, and I accepted the task, so I can't back down."
"Who wants me dead?" Zheng Xiaotian asked.
"I don't know!" The killer shrugged, "I just accepted the task and came to take your life. As for who wants you dead, I didn't investigate for you, but you can guess. It's up to you whether you can guess it or not."
"I don't want to die, okay?" Zheng Xiaotian looked sincere. After all, who wants to die? That would be a lack of sense, right? No one wants to die. As for who wants him dead, he didn't want to dwell on it. Guess, guess your sister. He hadn't offended anyone, so how could he guess? If it had to be someone, it would be Li Yunchong. But the key was, how could the other party find a killer in an instant? There wasn't that much hatred between them.
"No!" The killer shook his head.
"Whatever you're paid, I'll pay more," Zheng Xiaotian said.
"This isn't about money, it's about credibility," the killer shook his head, "Even if someone only paid one yuan, once I accept the task, it's either you die or I die. You can only blame yourself for getting to the point where someone hires a killer to kill you. It's clear that the hatred is so deep, it's irreconcilable."
"..." Zheng Xiaotian was speechless. He had no idea who was targeting him, and it was so inexplicable to be assassinated.
"I'm going to act!" The killer's words fell, and he tightly gripped the dagger, thrusting it toward Zheng Xiaotian's throat. First, he used two daggers to break the other party's shoulder, then kicked the ribs on the other party's chest, causing them to fracture. He didn't believe that the other party had any chance of turning the tide.
Zheng Xiaotian swallowed a mouthful of saliva. Watching the dagger get closer, it felt like Death was drawing near. His heart felt like it was being pulled, and his eyelids twitched wildly. He was about to face death, but he wasn't prepared at all, and fear flooded his chest.
The dagger was only 0.01 centimeters away from Zheng Xiaotian's throat, and then it couldn't move forward any further.
"Who are you?" The killer looked at the man who suddenly appeared beside him.
"The one who will kill you!" Li Yunchong's right foot suddenly kicked out.
Bang!
The killer's stomach was hit. The powerful impact made him retreat violently.
Li Yunchong's right hand flicked, and the dagger held between his two fingers flipped, then he caught it in his palm, gripping the dagger tightly. His figure instantly moved toward the killer.
Li Yunchong was originally protecting the two girls in the private room. But the two girls told him to find Zheng Xiaotian.
No matter how much Li Yunchong tried to persuade them, the two girls kept insulting him, and in the end, he had no choice but to come out and look for Zheng Xiaotian.
Finding someone in a KTV was no easy task. Just as Li Yunchong was feeling dejected, he smelled the scent of blood. He immediately came over. Unexpectedly, he saw someone attacking Zheng Xiaotian, and the dagger was about to pierce his throat. If it really pierced, it would probably only be the Divine Doctors who could save him.
So, Li Yunchong didn't hesitate and immediately acted to stop the attack, then launched an attack. In that instant, his movements were fluid and smooth, something only an experienced hand could do.
Zheng Xiaotian took deep breaths of fresh air. If he hadn't sensed it wrong, it seemed he was saved. At this moment, the sound of clashing metal was continuous, indicating that the person who saved him was already in a fierce battle with the killer.
"Who are you?" The killer seized a moment to ask. The explosive power displayed by the man in front of him was far stronger than the assassination target. If it wasn't necessary to fight, he would rather not.
"The one who will kill you." Li Yunchong seized a moment and suddenly thrust the dagger at the other party.
Unfortunately, the killer had no choice but to grip his dagger and meet Li Yunchong. Clang, clang, clang, the sound of weapons clashing was continuous and intense.
Zheng Xiaotian was on the side, bleeding profusely, his lips white. He wanted to say, "My hands are useless, who the hell can call 120 for me?" If this continues, I'll bleed to death. Really!
After a hundred exchanges, the killer gave up. He retreated and left.
Li Yunchong didn't pursue, but went to Zheng Xiaotian first.
Zheng Xiaotian, finally, was saved by Li Yunchong before he bled to death.
