The Art of Killing, the Violent Knight Makes His Entrance!

"This brat..."

The remaining Wolf Demons were all stunned.

Everything had happened too fast, like a flash of lightning.

In their eyes, a little runt like Long Haoyu should have had his head crushed by that Wolf Demon who had attacked just now.

Someone like Cai'er, who had managed to keep fleeing under their pursuit, was already a rare sight.

But reality taught them a lesson. From striking to killing, Long Haoyu had done it all in one fluid motion without the slightest pause.

"Get him together!"

"Crush this little brat's balls!"

Another Wolf Demon let out a low growl.

After exchanging glances with the other Wolf Demons, they all put away their contempt.

Cai'er hurriedly came back to her senses and moved to rush forward to help again.

She had not yet been injured, and she was confident that she could be of considerable help to Long Haoyu.

Long Haochen quickly said, "Little sister, don't go. Those Wolf Demons are very vicious."

Cai'er grabbed Long Haochen's hand and wrote, "Those Wolf Demons are very vicious. They came for me, so I have to go help."

Long Haochen quickly shook his head. "No, no. The Wolf Demons may be vicious, but if I let you go up there, I'll definitely get scolded."

"We're big kids now. We have to protect people younger than us. That's the code we Knights live by!"

Cai'er was anxious, but she could not overcome Long Haochen's insistence. She could only watch helplessly as all the Wolf Demons pounced on Long Haoyu.

Having been chased by the Wolf Demons for a long time, she knew all too well how troublesome they were.

They were fast and nimble. Even she, the Reincarnation Saintess, who was highly skilled in speed and movement techniques, had suffered at their hands.

If Long Haoyu faced these Wolf Demons head-on, the outcome would definitely not be promising.

"Haochen, well done. Stay back and watch. None of you come any closer."

"I'm taking all these Wolf Demons today!"

Long Haoyu's blood boiled. After killing one Wolf Demon, he could clearly sense the joy coming from No Edge.

"Master, Master, kill all these Wolf Demons."

No Edge's Sword Spirit hummed softly, clearly enjoying this slaughter.

Long Haoyu smiled. "That goes without saying. We can't let any of these Wolf Demons leave alive!"

The Wolf Demons were enraged. They darted into several positions and surrounded Long Haoyu in an encirclement.

Their claws reflected a grim, cold gleam beneath the sunlight, while their sharp fangs carried the scent of Bloodthirst.

The instant they surrounded Long Haoyu, they seemed to act in perfect coordination as they pounced on him at the same time.

"Good timing!"

Long Haoyu gave a low shout, wielding the Wufeng Heavy Sword with the same plain and unadorned style of attack.

Both hands gripping No Edge's hilt, he dragged the tip of the Sword Edge across the ground, sending a trail of sparks flying.

As one Wolf Demon was about to reach him and several others closed in from different directions, Long Haoyu's mind was utterly clear.

He could not leap high into the air as he had against the first Wolf Demon. Doing so would leave him completely exposed before these Wolf Demons.

His knees bent. Just as he neared the Wolf Demon directly ahead, Long Haoyu suddenly shot beneath its body.

He raised No Edge vertically with the motion, sliced open the Wolf Demon's belly, and slid behind it, breaking out of the encirclement.

Wolf Demon blood splashed onto No Edge, making it even more excited, but Long Haoyu was careful not to let a single drop land on himself.

Having cleanly broken through the encirclement, Long Haoyu quickly rose again. When the remaining Wolf Demons saw him effortlessly kill another companion, every one of them became ferocious.

As they pounced again, the Wolf Demons cautiously guarded the soft underbellies beneath them.

"Tricks really only work once."

"No wonder Shadow Space's motto is, 'Treat life and death lightly. If you don't submit, fight!'"

"So next, I can only use the simplest and most brutal method."

Long Haoyu saw through the Wolf Demons' intentions, and his expression grew solemn.

He no longer considered any clever tricks. One hand gripped No Edge while the other suddenly reached toward an incoming Wolf Demon.

Bang!!

Long Haoyu currently had 35 points of Spirit Energy. With No Edge's enhancement, his Spirit Energy reached 38.5, close to the threshold of 40.

The Wolf Demons that had given Cai'er some trouble were, at most, around the level of a second-rank Attendant Knight or just entering the third rank.

The difference between them and Long Haoyu was not especially great, but it still existed.

Long Haoyu grabbed the clawed Wolf Demon by the face with one hand, then fiercely thrust No Edge toward its neck.

With a wet pfft, the Wolf Demon fell to the ground. Before it could even experience the joy of death, its consciousness had already blurred.

Having secured his third kill, Long Haoyu saw a Wolf Demon at his side open its jaws and bite toward him, clearly intending to tear through his neck.

With a slight sway, Long Haoyu flashed behind that Wolf Demon.

"Hey, big guy, I'm behind you!" Long Haoyu lightly patted the Wolf Demon's shoulder.

The Wolf Demon reacted, its savage jaws snapping around as it tried to bite Long Haoyu to pieces.

But before it could truly bite down, the Wufeng Heavy Sword rapidly filled its vision before viciously plunging into its mouth.

Another Wolf Demon was killed. Only one remained, and while the ferocity in its eyes had grown stronger, fear now lay beneath it.

After watching its companions get taken out one after another, it finally realized that Long Haoyu was not merely some little brat.

"The wind's tight—run!"

The Wolf Demon cursed under its breath, turned around, and tried to flee.

Seeing this, Long Haoyu hurriedly chased after it with No Edge raised in both hands.

It had delivered itself right to his doorstep. How could he possibly let it run away? Wouldn't that be letting down a Knight's standards?

The Wolf Demon felt Long Haoyu drawing closer and closer, and panic welled up within it. Realizing that it might not escape, it had just begun to turn and fight back when No Edge's battered-looking blade greeted it.

Long Haoyu did not slash down directly. He wielded No Edge like a massive club, smashing the flat of the blade into the Wolf Demon's face and slamming it heavily into the ground.

After successfully knocking down the Wolf Demon, he raised No Edge upright and mercilessly drove it into the Wolf Demon's head.

Blood splashed once more, yet not a single drop touched him.

If not for the Wolf Demon corpses on the ground and the blood remaining on No Edge—

Almost no one would have believed that Long Haoyu had killed all these Wolf Demons in mere moments.

From his first strike to his fifth kill, blood stained his blade, yet not his clothes.

There was artistry in it, violence in it, and even a faint touch of elegance.

Clap clap clap—

Suddenly, crisp applause rang out.

A man in white emerged from the forest. Looking at Long Haoyu, who had killed five Wolf Demons, his eyes held admiration.

The moment Cai'er saw the man in white appear, her body flashed as she vanished from Long Haochen's side and immediately stood in front of Long Haoyu.

Her purple eyes brimmed with fierce hostility. Though her body was not broad at all, she spread her arms to shield Long Haoyu behind her.

She glared fiercely at the suddenly appearing man in white. Her voiceless mouth opened and closed, like an enraged little lioness.

"Don't worry. I won't hurt them."

"After all, this little fellow protected you just now."

The man in white spoke softly. As he soothed Cai'er, he looked toward Long Haoyu again.

Long Haoyu stared at the man in white, unable to understand why he had come out clapping and why he was looking at him.

"Little fellow, I see that although you belong to the Knight Temple, your movement technique just now, as well as your one-hit kills against the Wolf Demons, show that you have great talent as an Assassin."

"Are you interested in joining our Assassin Temple?!"
