Pursuit

Looking at the brightly lit manor a hundred meters away.

And sensing the increasingly dark environment around them...

The hearts of the two Harmony Realm Martial Masters sank rapidly.

The lightning-fast exchange just now had made them realize that this thug was indeed a top-tier Martial Master through and through!

Especially his speed and explosiveness, which seemed to be even above that of a top-tier Martial Master.

If the environment was favorable, the six of them could rely on each other and hold out until Minister Lu arrived, but now...

It's hanging by a thread!

"Killed a level 7 creature, experience +67!"

"Killed a level 5 creature, experience +12!"

"Killed a level 6 creature, experience +26!"

[Life Level: 10 (922/1000)]

Li ChunJun glanced at the progress of his life level's evolution.

Then he looked at the rapidly becoming noisy figures rushing out to meet him.

He didn't know how strong the Xuan Moon Security people hired by the Jin Family were.

But...

The fact that he, Li ChunJun, had gone on a killing spree in Hengguang Garden had spread throughout Guangzhou City. Under such circumstances, a security group that still dared to take on this job must have the confidence to not fear a top-tier Martial Master.

He didn't want to create unnecessary complications.

Once the Jin Family members scattered and fled, and the Xuan Moon Security people were there to delay him...

Then this cleanup might not be completed perfectly.

Therefore...

In the night, Li ChunJun's figure suddenly burst forth.

Instantly passing one of the figures.

Even though the six were back-to-back, facing Li ChunJun, who possessed an absolute physical advantage, they still couldn't react effectively.

Blood splattered!

One of them quickly died on the spot!

"This can't go on!"

Wang Yue made a prompt decision and shouted sternly, "I'll cover the rear! Everyone retreat quickly and return to the estate!"

During the stern shout, he exchanged a look with another Martial Master.

This Martial Master immediately understood his meaning.

Immediately, with a tragic and heavy tone, he ordered, "Go!"

Instantly, the four of them leaped out.

Wang Yue remained, retreating while remaining fully vigilant.

Just as their retreat had hastily moved ten meters or so, Li ChunJun's figure once again arrived.

And almost at the instant his figure arrived, Wang Yue's figure proactively met the sword light that stabbed like a startled swan, his right hand holding a sword to intercept, and his left hand, at some point, had donned puncture-resistant gloves, grabbing towards the sword's body like lightning.

That swift-as-a-startled-swan sword easily deflected the sword Wang Yue used to intercept, but this deflection caused the sword that was originally aimed at his throat to slightly shift its position.

Or rather, this deflection was Wang Yue's deliberate lure to make Li ChunJun attack, the purpose being to make the sword aimed at his throat stab his body!

"Whoosh!"

The instant the sword's edge struck Wang Yue, it seemed to encounter some kind of powerful barrier, and the sword's body paused for a moment.

Inner armor!

Wang Yue was wearing...

Or rather, every captain was wearing inner armor that the company had spent a lot of money to equip, which had excellent puncture resistance.

The set Wang Yue had was an enhanced version that he had spent a lot of money on.

Ordinary swords and sabers couldn't do anything to it at all.

But the force contained in Li ChunJun's sword was too great, and the sword's edge was too sharp.

Even though Wang Yue's armor had amazing defense, the sword still pierced through it after a slight pause.

But before this sword could pierce through his body, his left hand, wearing a special glove, suddenly gripped the sword's body, gritting his teeth and supporting it with all his might!

No words were needed.

The four people who seemed to be retreating simultaneously returned, forming a meticulous and seamless combined attack tactic!

This was actually a trap that Wang Yue had set, using himself as bait.

Li ChunJun seemed to realize this in an instant, and his strength erupted, ignoring the combined attack of the four people and directly delivering the Sharp Sword in his hand, the sharp sword body instantly piercing through his body!

This scene made Wang Yue suddenly open his eyes wide.

He seemed unable to believe that, even though the attacks of his four teammates were approaching, instead of retreating to avoid the brunt of the attack, he would risk being in danger to take his life!?

"Chī!"

Fresh blood splattered.

The combined attack of the four quickly added several wounds to Li ChunJun's body.

But Li ChunJun's bravery still exceeded everyone's imagination.

He abruptly drew his sword and fought desperately against the other four, covered in blood.

His injured body clearly affected his performance. Although he was still extremely ferocious, living up to his name as the Century Thug, his injuries worsened considerably as he killed the other four.

Almost as he finished them off, beams of intense light shone down.

Another flare lit up the night sky.

The people from Xuan Moon Security were already within reach.

Seeing this, he didn't even bother to finish Wang Yue off with another strike. Staggering, he quickly fled into the darkness.

Less than a breath after he ran into the darkness,

Department Head Lu Jing arrived at the scene first, striding quickly and bursting forth at full speed.

"Wang Yue!"

Looking at the others who had become corpses, and Wang Yue, who was on the verge of death after being pierced by a sword, Lu Jing's eyes were filled with uncontrollable rage: "Damn it!"

"Quick… he's seriously injured… chase him… don't let our brothers sacrifice themselves in vain…"

Wang Yue managed to gasp out.

Lu Jing hesitated.

Their mission was to ensure the safety of the Jin Family. What if that thug was using a feint to lure them away…

But at this moment, their employer, Jin Guanghua, urgently inquired through the earpiece: "Is he dead!? Department Head Lu, is that thug dead!? He's our only enemy. As long as he dies, our contract is complete."

These words immediately made Lu Jing decide.

That's right!

The reason the Jin Family sought their protection was because of this thug, Li ChunJun!

If he died, wouldn't the Jin Family's crisis be resolved?

Now that he had been severely injured by Wang Yue and the others at the cost of their lives, it was the best time to kill him.

If they missed this opportunity, and Li ChunJun hid in the shadows again, launching surprise attacks and assassinations one after another, how many times could their Xuan Moon Security brothers withstand it!?

How many more people would sacrifice themselves because of it!?

"Captain Yun, take a team and follow me, we're chasing him! The rest of you, protect Mr. Jin's family!"

Lu Jing shouted, quickly calling a team of elites and heading straight after the assassin who was fleeing rapidly away from the flare's range.

As if sensing the deadly crisis behind him, or perhaps driven by a survival instinct,

Lu Jing vaguely felt that…

The thug, who had been staggering as he fled…

Had noticeably increased his speed.

Of course, it was also possible that it was too dark and he was mistaken.

Recalling the ten brothers who had died outside the manor earlier, the killing intent in Lu Jing's heart boiled to the extreme.

When the Jin Family came knocking, the company was already considering whether to take the job or not. It was because he, Lu Jing, considered himself a top-tier Martial Master, not weaker than anyone, that he overruled all objections and brought his brothers to Guangzhou City.

But the result…

Twenty-six field agents, fourteen lost in one night!

More than half the force wiped out!

Now, having paid such a huge price, the Century Thug has been severely injured. If he can't kill this thug, how will he have the face to face those dead brothers and their parents and families!?

At this thought, Lu Jing pushed his speed to the limit, his eyes fixed on the figure fleeing for his life ahead, not blinking once.

"You killed people from Xuan Moon Security, Li ChunJun, today, you will die!"
