Seeing their employer in danger, the two senior bodyguards from Black Demon Company immediately let out fierce roars. Black battle qi surged from their bodies as their fists, clad in special gloves, smashed toward the flying daggers. Having learned from their companions' mistakes, they covered their entire bodies in battle qi. At the same time, they stood before Lin Tianyu, shielding him completely behind them.
To reach such a level of battle qi, one had to be at least an Innate Stage master.
Just as the flying daggers were about to collide with their fists, suddenly—
Flying Dagger Direction Change!
The two bodyguards truly deserved to be called Black Demon Company's senior bodyguards. Their fists had no time to defend, for the flying daggers were simply too fast. At the final instant, they forcibly tripled the density of the battle qi around their throats.
But these were flying daggers infused with true qi! Daggers that could even pierce an Innate Stage master's protective true qi!
"Urgh!" "Urgh!"
The two bodyguards collapsed to the ground in disbelief, each with a flying dagger embedded in his throat.
"You idiots, let me handle this!" A burly man stepped to the front, speaking fluent English.
Li Yang's expression changed as he hid in the grass. This burly man had not been within his field of vision at all. How could Li Yang have known that this man was the leader of the bodyguards sent by Black Demon Company? This time, however, he had acted as Lin Tianyu's personal driver.
This burly man was one of Black Demon Company's upper echelons, one of the Eight Super Bodyguards—El!
"Yes!" The other five senior bodyguards immediately obeyed and retreated to the side. El's huge mouth curled slightly. "Let's see how long you can keep hiding!"
El suddenly let out a furious roar. Powerful Demonic Battle Qi erupted from him in an instant as he leaped into the air. His legs chopped straight down like executioner's blades, and two streams of black battle qi broke free from his legs, crashing toward the grass like meteors.
"This is bad. He's actually a Level Five Master!" As a member of Security Bureau Group 9, Li Yang naturally knew Black Demon Company extremely well. He recognized the grade of that battle qi at a glance.
Facing the two tyrannical streams of battle qi hurtling toward him, Li Yang flashed forward rather than retreating. He charged straight at El, instantly shortening the distance between them.
Boom!
The two streams of battle qi blasted the grass into the air. Li Yang's figure appeared ghostlike amid the scattered grass. A faint cold smile touched his lips as Internal Energy coursed into his flying daggers, one held in each hand.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The two flying daggers shot out simultaneously in two different directions.
"Even if you block one, you can't block the other. Lin Tianyu, you're dead for sure!" Li Yang looked at Lin Tianyu with cruel eyes.
Yet Lin Tianyu studied Li Yang closely with an appraising gaze. Suddenly, a trace of an ambiguous smile appeared on his lips. He casually patted the shoulder of a blond man beside him. This blond man was a Special Grand Deacon of the Holy See.
"My pleasure to be of service to Mr. Lin!" Fili, Special Grand Deacon of the Holy See Inquisition, smiled brilliantly at the flying daggers.
Bang!
Fili merely extended his right hand slightly. Just as Li Yang was about to alter the daggers' direction, a white sword gleam suddenly sprang from Fili's fingertip. The sword gleam pierced directly through one flying dagger, instantly slicing it into two halves. "El, I'll only make one move. This brat is yours." Fili flicked his dazzling golden hair and smiled at El.
El roared, "Fili, you sissy, get the hell out of here! Don't meddle in such a trivial matter!"
Whoosh!
El's furious punch was astonishingly fast. Black Demonic Battle Qi rose like flames, smashing directly toward Li Yang's flying dagger.
Direction Change!
The flying dagger instantly changed course and shot straight at El's throat!
Hissss—
The black battle qi around El's throat suddenly erupted. The flying dagger seemed to freeze, sinking into the battle qi but unable to advance even half an inch.
Bang!
Under the mutual pressure of Li Yang's true qi and El's Demonic Battle Qi, the flying dagger finally could not endure any longer and shattered into fragments. Li Yang's flying dagger still could not break through a Level Five Master's protective battle qi.
A ruthless glint flashed through Li Yang's eyes. His body followed directly behind the flying dagger, true qi surging violently within him.
Underground Boxing Ring—Death Leg Technique!
"Ha!" Li Yang roared as his right leg became a streak of lightning, chopping straight toward El's head. A sharp light flashed in El's eyes. His left arm, as thick as an ordinary man's thigh and infused with powerful battle qi, smashed directly toward Li Yang's right leg.
Boom!
True qi and battle qi collided violently. El's battle qi was far more abundant than Li Yang's true qi, yet El's expression changed, because he realized Li Yang had not used much force at all. Li Yang had never truly intended to attack his head.
Borrowing force to exert force, Li Yang spun one hundred and eighty degrees through the air—Whirlwind Roundhouse Kick!
Li Yang's right leg lashed out like a venomous serpent, spinning as it struck El's lower body viciously. Bang! The terrifying speed Li Yang gained by borrowing El's force left El unable to react in time.
"Argh!" El cried out in pain. Fortunately, the kick had landed on his crotch rather than his groin. Otherwise, El's scream would have been even more miserable.
Li Yang's left leg instantly became a chopping blade, cleaving toward El's chest like lightning.
At the same time, Li Yang's right leg also became a chopping blade!
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!...
Death Leg Technique: Chain Strangling Kill!
Roar!
El threw back his head and roared wildly. The battle qi around his body erupted sharply. Li Yang's twin-leg assault achieved nothing, so he flashed away and retreated. In that same instant, a flying dagger flashed from his hand and shot straight toward Lin Tianyu.
"Fili, protect Mr. Lin." El's entire body crackled with a series of bone-popping sounds. "What I hate most is the Underground Boxing Ring's Death Leg Technique." El glared fiercely at Li Yang.
El suddenly accelerated and charged toward Li Yang. "Bastard, die!" Powerful battle qi surged from his entire body as he crashed forward like a tank.
Li Yang frowned at the sight, then gritted his teeth and leaped into the air. True qi circulated rapidly within him as both legs smashed viciously toward El's head.
Bang! Bang!...
El allowed Li Yang to attack him, while his fist smashed directly toward Li Yang.
"Die!" With a furious roar, El's iron fist hammered toward Li Yang. Li Yang immediately tried to dodge, but El's battle qi suddenly swelled threefold. The violent battle qi poured directly into Li Yang's body. Li Yang's true qi was like paper before it, shattered in an instant as though dry weeds and rotten wood. The battle qi swept through every meridian in Li Yang's body.
El stood still. He believed that with his overwhelming battle qi, the man before him was as good as dead.
Pfft! Li Yang dropped weakly to one knee, coughing up mouthful after mouthful of blood.
Am I going to die? Li Yang felt a little helpless. The other side had so many experts. Of those he had discovered alone, there were already two Level Five Masters and eight Level Four Masters.
Suddenly, all the rampaging battle qi inside Li Yang surged toward his head. His head seemed like a bottomless abyss, and all the battle qi vanished without a trace.
Li Yang was instantly delighted, but his expression remained exactly as it had been.
"What a pity. A flying-dagger master is finished just like that!" Lin Tianyu shook his head and sighed, then turned to leave.
Whoosh!
Li Yang gathered his last trace of Internal Energy. A flying dagger flashed from his right hand and vanished.
Li Yang's state of mind immediately sank into the Regret Realm!
Of the three great realms, each granted flying daggers a special effect. The Joyful Spirit Realm brought Flying Dagger Direction Change, so what did the Regret Realm bring? As Li Yang's state of mind entered the Regret Realm, powerful spiritual energy from heaven and earth surged wildly into the flying dagger. Its radiance flared brilliantly, and its speed reached an unimaginable level.
Regret Realm—Flying Dagger Acceleration!
The flying dagger, already swift as lightning, instantly doubled its speed!
Whoosh
A piercing howl rang out, and heaven and earth seemed to lose their color.
Target—Lin Tianyu, utterly unguarded!
