LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 31
Chapter 31: The Notoriety of the Astonishing Jing Ni, this couple even had the same thoughts!
The moonlight was frosty, and the night wind was chilly.
Three lifeless bodies lay on the cold ground.
The long sword emitted a cold gleam in the moonlight.
Jing Ni gently shook her slender wrist, shaking off the blood on the sword.
She raised her head, her cold and merciless gaze sending chills down one’s spine.
At this moment, the first-class assassin who made kings and nobles of seven countries tremble seemed to have returned!
Jing Ni emotionlessly sheathed the sword in her hand, her slender figure leaping lightly and disappearing into the moonlight.
Just now, there were seven figures passing by her side, three were killed, and four remained.
Once she had taken action, none would be left behind.
If today’s events were revealed, the Network would surely trace back to her.
Jing Ni leaped lightly on the branches, chasing after them, and soon saw the flames ahead.
Besides Vulture who had just passed by her, another Assasin from Hundred Bird Assassins, Red Goose, was also here.
Jing Ni stopped her figure, concealing herself in the darkness with her sword.
For a top-notch assassin, rashly taking action was a taboo.
“Why hasn’t Nightingale returned yet?”
Being forced back by the flames rushing towards him, Red Goose frowned and asked the vulture beside him.
Vulture stared at the fiery figure surrounded by a group of killers with vigilance.
They hadn’t expected this target to be so tricky.
The elusive flames made it difficult for them to find an opportunity.
As long as the target was struck by the hairpin in her hand, the person would be set ablaze.
The absurd thing was that whenever a killer approached her, after meeting her azure eyes, they couldn’t bring themselves to strike her!
“It should be soon.”
Red Goose was also puzzled. Considering Nightingale’s skills, she shouldn’t take this long to return.
Regardless of success or failure, for assassins, there would be no prolonged battles.
Even if Nightingale didn’t kill the woman, she would quickly return to join them.
Staring at the graceful figure in the flames, Red Goose frowned and said, “This woman’s fire bewitching skill is extraordinary; it can affect our minds.”
He had almost succeeded several times, but each time he met her sky-blue eyes, he felt his heart race.
It felt as if the person in front of him was not a target to be hunted but a lover he was smitten with!
He simply couldn’t bring himself to act!
So, they could only hope for Nightingale, who was also a woman like her.
But until now, Nightingale had yet to return.
If you continue to delay like this, once the entire forest is set on fire, it may allow the target to escape under the pretext.
“Don’t look into her eyes, I’ll attract her attention, you assassinate from behind!”
The cold gaze of Vulture flashed, offering a solution.
“Good! Let’s do it!”
The decisive Red Goose, the two with swords, rushed towards the fiery figure.
Vulture’s nimble body quickly approached the target under the cover of his subordinates. When the long sword in his hand stabbed towards her face, the other party not only did not fear, but blinked at him instead!
Vulture’s heart thumped. As if under a spell, his movements slowed down as well!
Terrible, it’s the feeling of love at first sight!
“Hehe, you want to kill me~”
The woman revealed a hint of pride, a charming smile on her lips. In an instant, the surrounding firelight dimmed in the presence of that smile!
The woman used the long hairpin in her hand to flick away Vulture’s sword, pointing towards his forehead.
Just then, she suddenly restrained her smile, her eyebrows furrowed in seriousness. An imposing expression of beauty turned solemn on her bewitching face!
Behind, the Red Goose had already arrived, the tip of his knife aimed straight at her heart.
But suddenly, the Red Goose’s movement abruptly stopped. His entire body plummeted straight from the air. Only when he fell to the ground, did a head roll off his neck with a gurgling sound!
The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. Jing Ni suddenly appeared behind the Red Goose, beheading him with a swift strike!
“It’s you?”
Vulture opposite the Red Goose looked up to meet a pair of cold and ruthless eyes, his face instantly filled with shock!
The sword just now was so fast that he couldn’t see it clearly. It wasn’t until Red Goose’s head fell that he understood what had happened.
That sword just now not only had incredible speed, but also impeccably precise timing! This manner of attack made it seem like the opponent was more of an assassin than they were.
Vulture’s heart was filled with a chilling feeling. If she appeared here, it meant that the Nightingale had failed and been killed! But who exactly was this woman, with skills so terrifying!
His gaze fell on the sword in Jing Ni’s hand, and his pupils suddenly shrank in recognition! As fellow assassins, how could he not have heard of Jing Ni’s name!
Vulture was frightened without even engaging in battle, his face filled with shock as he stepped back uncontrollably.
Even his voice trembled involuntarily. “That sword, you are… you are Jing Ni…”
His final words, along with his neck, were severed by Jing Ni. After killing Vulture, Jing Ni, with a cold expression, swept a disdainful glance at the remaining terrified assassins. The chilling light of Jing Ni’s Sword sparkled, reaping the figures like chaff!
The flames soared in the forest, the scorching waves of fire hitting the two stunning faces. Looking at the corpses all around, the woman in red was full of astonishment.
A hint of confusion was revealed in her watery eyes. Tilting her head to look at the ruthless Jing Ni, she softly asked, “I don’t know you~ Are you here to save me?”
Jing Ni remained silent throughout, a flash of cold light in his eyes. The long sword stabbed directly at the opponent’s throat! No wonder they were a couple with Li Mo, even their current thoughts were the same. Once leaving a survivor, it means there will be no peace!
