Chapter 89 - A Powerful Enemy wounding Two Martial Arts Legend with a single Attack
All of those spies sent to the country were highly trained. They all chose to kill themselves when it became obvious that they were unable to win in order to prevent the enemy from exploiting them.
At the same time, Yun Sheng got his hands on the case containing the Heirloom Seal of the Realm.
He was finally able to rest easy. When his superiors called him and asked him to intercept those robbers, he had been very frightened.
That was because when James and Sakata Juuzaburo were leading their men in circles. Any men that he sent were quickly dealt with by the enemy when they were about to corner those robbers.
While the enemy suffered huge losses in doing so, they had nonetheless prevented the Chinese forces from catching up with them.
According to speculations from Yun Sheng’s superiors, the enemy would have probably chosen Zhejiang to be the place where they fled to the ocean. As such, elite forces had been put there a long time ago, consisting of men that were far more powerful than the ones he gathered at the moment. Even the provincial boss of Southern Min had been summoned to participate in the interception.
The Special Task Force had even enlisted help from the military.
He looked rather laidback, yet no one present dared to underestimate someone who escaped everyone’s notice until he spoke.
“Who are you?” Yang Chengsi went up and asked.
However, that middle-aged man seemed to have blitzed like a gale straight for Yun Sheng as he opened his mouth.
Clang!
The katana in his hand was drawn, which produced a gleaming flash in an instant under the bright moonlight.
The flash of the blade headed straight for Yun Sheng’s arm, which was carrying the case, at a frightening speed.
The man actually intended to slash off the arm carrying the case.
The slash was quick, accurate, and brutal. It felt like a very precise tidal wave.
Yun Sheng was unable to react in time. To put it precisely, he was unable to react at all.
He felt as if he had been targeted by a ferocious beast at that very instant. It had been a long time since he felt anything like that. His senses were numbed in an instant, suppressed by the enemy’s intimidating aura.
It was worth noting that he was a war veteran and had seen a great many brutal battles, yet the enemy needed only to cast one look at him, rendering him completely immobile and reducing him to a sheep waiting to be slaughtered.
It was utterly terrifying.
I’m doomed!
Just when Yun Sheng thought he was done for, a pebble shot through the air at a lightning-fast speed, crashing hard onto the incoming blade.
Clang!
A crisp, clashing sound was heard as the blade veered off of its original course, swinging down right next to Yun Sheng.
All those actions seemed to have taken a long time, yet it had only been an instant.
Both Yang Chengsi and Monk Buyi realized what happened at that moment, and they were both bursting with cold sweat. If Yun Sheng died right before their eyes, they were probably next.
Be it the Coalition of the Woods or the Southern Shaolin Temple, they were technically employed by the Special Task Force, after all.
Both men stood before Yun Sheng and attacked like bolts of lightning. Monk Buyi brought his staff down on the assailant, causing terrifying sonic booms.
Yang Chengsi drew the twin blades by his side as well. The flashes of the blades were unwavering as they headed straight for that middle-aged man of average built. The swordplay was just as brilliant.
“Know your place.” The man scoffed at them as internal force coursed throughout his arm. The numbing, sore feeling from the pebble immediately dissipated.
He swiped with his katana, which brought forth a terrifying flash.
Clang!
Clang!
Two booming sounds of metal clashes were heard. Both Yang Chengsi and Monk Buyi spat up blood as they were sent flying like kites with their threads snapped.
He dealt severe damage to two Martial Arts Legends with one single attack.
The place was rendered dead silent immediately.
