Blood Stains Sacred Healing, Ghost Leopard's Fury
The purple-gold glow of the Spear of Judgment suddenly flared in the dim hospital room like a declaration from the god of death! The Soul Elder assassin charging at the front still had shock in his eyes at his "awakening prey" when the icy spear tip, carrying the destructive Will of Judgment and soul-rending lightning, brutally pierced through the Soul Power defense he had hastily raised!
Squelch!
The spear tip struck precisely through his heart! Violent lightning power erupted in an instant!
"Argh!" The Soul Elder only managed a brief scream before his body stiffened abruptly. The light in his eyes quickly faded, leaving behind incredulous fear and confusion as he fell straight down! His heart had been completely destroyed, and the lightning power had cut off every trace of life!
One strike! A Soul Elder killed!
This was the terrifying power of the Spear of Judgment's ultimate single-target attack! Especially when the opponent was completely unprepared, overconfident, and careless!
At the same time!
Whoosh!
The Tungsten Steel spearhead, infused with all of Ling Feng's strength and empowered by the Will of Judgment, shot toward another Soul Elder assassin's throat with the precision of a black venomous snake and a shrill whistle!
That Soul Elder was clearly more experienced in battle and sensed the deadly danger the instant Ling Feng sprang into action! His pupils contracted sharply as his body bent backward in an incredibly bizarre posture! At the same time, a gray, web-like Soul Power shield instantly appeared before his throat!
Clang! Splat!
The Tungsten Steel spearhead slammed into the web shield! The shield flickered violently and let out a strained groan! Though it did not fully penetrate, the terrifying impact and the piercing nature of the Will of Judgment still tore through the shield's edge, driving the spearhead viciously into the Soul Elder's shoulder socket! Blood sprayed out at once!
"Ah!" The searing pain drew a muffled groan from the Soul Elder. He staggered back, his eyes filled with horror and rage! He had never imagined that a boy still severely injured and only at level twenty could launch such a fierce, deadly counterattack!
The other two Soul Grandmaster assassins were also stunned by the sudden counterattack! One companion was dead, another injured! Their target was not a lamb awaiting slaughter, but a savage beast ready to devour men!
"Kill him! Now!" The wounded Soul Elder clutched his bleeding shoulder and roared sharply, murderous intent boiling in his eyes! If the mission failed, returning would mean death anyway! They had to kill this boy!
The remaining two Soul Grand Masters snapped out of their daze. With vicious glints in their eyes, they brandished poisoned daggers and fearlessly lunged at Ling Feng from both sides! Their daggers tore through the air, carrying a foul, fishy wind!
Ling Feng had landed his blow, but forcibly activating the Spear of Judgment and throwing the spearhead had worsened his injuries, instantly draining his Soul Power dry! His face turned deathly pale, and blood seeped from the corner of his mouth again. Facing the two Soul Grand Masters' assault, a fierce glint flashed through his eyes. He abruptly pulled the Spear of Judgment from the corpse it had pierced, bringing up a spray of blood! Then he spun like a top, wielding the spear shaft like a staff and sweeping it viciously toward the assassin charging from the left with lingering lightning force! At the same time, his footwork shifted as he narrowly evaded the poisoned dagger stabbing from the right!
The shaft of the Spear of Judgment smashed hard against the left assassin's dagger! The immense force numbed the man's arm, and his dagger nearly flew from his hand! But Ling Feng was also at the end of his strength. The recoil sent him staggering back again, crashing into the wall and coughing up a mouthful of blood!
The right assassin's poisoned dagger grazed beneath his ribs, leaving a shallow bloody cut! Cold poison invaded instantly!
"Die!" A vicious look flashed through the wounded Soul Elder assassin's eyes. Enduring the pain in his shoulder, he lit up his second soul ring! A massive energy spiderweb, flickering with eerie green poisonous light and reeking of nauseating stench, descended over the movement-restricted Ling Feng! It sealed off every avenue of retreat!
No escape! Soul Power exhausted! Poison spreading!
A dead end!
Unwillingness flashed through Ling Feng's eyes! Did he have to use the system to save his life? No! He couldn't expose his trump card so easily!
At that critical moment!
"You're courting death!!!"
A roar containing towering fury and terrifying killing intent exploded above the Sacred Healing Hall like thunder from the netherworld! The entire building shook!
Boom!
The hospital room wall was smashed apart by an overbearing force as though it were made of paper! Amid the flying rubble, a slender black figure like a ghost appeared in the room as if teleporting, carrying suffocatingly cold pressure!
It was Ghost Leopard Douluo, who had returned!
His cloudy old eyes immediately locked onto the poisonous spiderweb descending overhead and Ling Feng, whose life hung by a thread! His withered hand reached out like a ghost claw and clenched through the air!
Rip!
The seemingly incomparably tough poisonous spiderweb was instantly torn apart by an invisible, terrifying force like fragile cloth! Eerie green poisonous light scattered everywhere, yet it could not come within three feet of Ghost Leopard Douluo!
"You dare commit murder in Spirit Hall! You dare assassinate the Pope's adopted son! Who gave you mongrels the nerve?!" Ghost Leopard Douluo's voice was like ten-thousand-year ice. The terrifying killing intent of a Titled Douluo instantly enveloped the remaining three assassins!
Thud! Thud!
Under that terrifying pressure, as solid as substance, the two Soul Grandmaster assassins could not even scream. Blood burst from their seven orifices as they collapsed to the floor like mud, their lives extinguished! Their heart meridians had been shattered directly by the pressure!
The sole remaining wounded Soul Elder felt as though an invisible mountain had crashed down upon him. His bones groaned under the unbearable pressure, blood spewed from his mouth, and boundless terror filled his eyes! Looking at Ghost Leopard Douluo, who seemed like a descending demon god, he was scared out of his wits. "Ti... Titled..."
"Keep him alive!" Ling Feng shouted, forcing himself to hold on.
Ghost Leopard Douluo snorted coldly and clenched his withered claw through the air!
Crack! Crack!
The Soul Elder assassin's arms and legs were instantly twisted into knots by invisible force! His shrill screams rang through the night as Ghost Leopard Douluo drew him through the air like a broken sack.
"Talk! Who sent you?!" Ghost Leopard Douluo's cold voice bored into the other man's mind like a venomous snake.
"I... I..." Blinded by excruciating pain, the Soul Elder assassin's eyes lost focus as if he wanted to say something. But at that moment, a strange wisp of black energy suddenly flashed through his eyes!
Warning! The target's soul has been remotely controlled by a high-level Spiritual Power secret technique! Self-destruction imminent!
The system prompt rang out in Ling Feng's mind!
"Not good!" Ghost Leopard Douluo also sensed the anomaly instantly. His withered claw shot toward the man's head!
But he was too late!
The Soul Elder assassin's head exploded without warning like an overripe watermelon! Red and white matter splattered all over Ghost Leopard Douluo! The headless corpse crumpled limply to the ground.
Silenced! Clean and efficient!
Ghost Leopard Douluo's face darkened so much it seemed ready to drip water! Red and white matter clung to his withered claw, giving off a heavy stench of blood. Looking at the four corpses on the ground, especially the headless one, a cold light flickered in his cloudy old eyes. "What ruthless methods! What meticulous arrangements!"
He turned toward Ling Feng, who was leaning against the wall with a pale face and black energy seeping from the wound beneath his ribs. For the first time, undisguised concern and... lingering fear showed in his eyes. "Kid, how are you?"
"I won't die..." Ling Feng forced out a weak smile. The poison beneath his ribs was spreading slowly under the suppression of the Will of Judgment, but it still brought waves of numbness and stabbing pain. "Thank... you for saving my life, Elder."
"Hmph! Useless! You can't even handle a few small fry!" Ghost Leopard Douluo scolded, but his movements were swift. With a wave of his withered claw, a stream of pure Soul Power surged into Ling Feng's body, helping him suppress the poison. At the same time, he flicked an antidote pill emitting a fragrant scent into Ling Feng's mouth. "This is my specially made antidote. It can counter a hundred poisons. The rest is up to you to endure!"
The pill melted as soon as it entered his mouth. A cool current swiftly flowed toward the wound, and together with the Will of Judgment, rapidly neutralized and forced out the cold poison. Ling Feng felt much of the numbness fade.
Only then did the Sacred Healing Hall guards and other alarmed higher-ups finally arrive. Seeing the bloody mess inside the hospital room, every one of them turned pale with terror!
"Elder Ghost Leopard! This is..." The red-robed bishop in charge of the Sacred Healing Hall was white-faced.
"Useless! A bunch of useless fools!" Ghost Leopard Douluo berated them without mercy. "Assassins made it all the way to the Pope's adopted son's bedside, and what the hell were you doing?! Investigate! Dig three feet into the ground if you have to, but find the mastermind! If you can't, all of you can get the hell off to the City of Slaughter!"
His cold gaze swept over everyone present before finally settling on Ling Feng. His voice carried an unquestionable decision. "This place is no longer safe! Kid, come with me! Go to my cultivation chamber! Let's see who else has the nerve to come!"
Without waiting for a response, Ghost Leopard Douluo grabbed the weakened Ling Feng like he was a chick. With a flash, he transformed into a wisp of black smoke and vanished from the ruined hospital room.
Leaving behind a room in chaos and a group of trembling Spirit Hall higher-ups.
That night, Spirit Hall was shaken! The Child of Judgment had been assassinated! Ghost Leopard Douluo was enraged! An invisible storm of slaughter began brewing over Spirit City!
