Chapter 163: Thousand-faced Assassin

When she saw the corpse that still had a trace of warmth to it, the girl in pinks expression remained unchanged even though a strange glint flickered in her gaze.

The four Southern Mountains Sect Cultivators were tense and gripped their weapons tightly.

As body-tempering cultivators, they would naturally carry melee combat weapons with them, similar to the likes of Su Zimos Cold Moon Saber and little fattys gigantic axe.

Of the four Southern Mountains Sect Cultivators, three of them held swords while the other one wielded a hook.

The itinerant cultivator, Yan Fei, was barehanded.

However, his sleeves were wide as if he had tricks hidden in them.

With a glance, Su Zimo could vaguely guess that Yan Feis weapon should be a pair of arm guards.

It was a well-hidden, short and fierce type of weapon that could be used both defensively and offensively.

It was equivalent to him fighting with his arms, except that it was invincible and indestructible.

It was obvious that this underground place was far from friendly.

Other than the fact that they were charmed to their toes by the girl in pink, the reason why the five of them were willing to follow along was because they were truly capable.

After all, there was an ancient spirit lock formation here.

Even if a perfected Foundation Establishment Cultivator with eight meridians unlocked were to come here, they might die in regret if they were weak in melee combat!

At the fork, the five men protected the girl in pink in the middle and surveyed the surroundings.

It was only after they confirmed that there was no danger that they continued forth.

Su Zimo hung around at the back not too far not too near.

Pausing beside the corpse at the fork, he glanced sideways.

The persons eyes were widened and filled with confusion – it was as though he didnt know how he had died.

The sword scar at the glabella was thin and it was clear that the assailant was extremely swift such that this man was killed without even having time to react!

Su Zimo continued to follow the girl in pink and the others in front.

Before long, they came across two more corpses lying diagonally on the ground that looked identical to the one before.

Those two corpses did not have their storage bags either.

Wu Xiangming and the rest swept their gazes and tried to protect the girl in pink as she walked past the two corpses.

All of a sudden!

Su Zimo felt a strong palpitating sensation as though his scalp was going numb!

The feeling came extremely suddenly without any warning at all.

Even though he did not sense any danger, Su Zimo subconsciously shouted softly, “Stop!”

Upon hearing Su Zimos voice, the girl in pink seemed to have thought of something as she stopped in her tracks.

Bursting from her legs, she leaped backwards in a flash.

Wu Xiangming and the rest were momentarily stunned.

Right then, a corpse lying diagonally to the side suddenly moved its pupils in a sinister manner.

It stood up and pulled an extremely thin sword out of nowhere, dashing forth and stabbing twice!

Poof! Poof!

A sword beam flashed followed by two crisp sounds.

Su Zimo was stunned.

The corpse had attacked too quickly!

If he was in another position and did not have spirit perception, he would not have been able to dodge those two attacks either!

Two Southern Mountains Sect cultivators had their back facing Su Zimo.

Even though he could not see their expressions, he could feel their bodies turning stiff as they fell front, no longer breathing.

Even though the corpse had killed two men, it did not stop at all.

Tapping its feet lightly, it sped in front and moved like a ghost, flickering and disappearing into the darkness.

Swish! Swish!

At the same time, two black beams of light pierced through the darkness and chased after the black shadow, letting out a whimper and disappearing.

Not far away, Su Zimo wielded his Sanguine Crystal Bow and shot out two arrows.

It was a pity that the corpse had escaped first and those two arrows werent able to hurt it given its beguiling movements.

Clang! Clang!

Soon after, two crisp sounds could be heard from the darkness ahead.

True enough.

The two arrows missed – the sounds came from them striking the walls.

Standing beside Su Zimo, the girl in pink had a strange glow in her eyes.

Of the people present, she was the only one who knew the identity of that corpse.

On the surface, that corpse did not have any loopholes.

It was identical to the previous corpse they had encountered, right down to the scar that flowed with warm blood.

However, the girl in pink had not expected that the young man with delicate features would be the first to realize that it was a disguise!

The corpse that had just escaped was the most coldblooded killer within the fiend sects – the true assassin!

No one within the fiend sects had seen the true face of the corpse.

He could be a corpse, or an elderly man with long, white hair.

He could also be an innocent and naive child or even… a woman!

Rather, no one knew whether he was a man or a woman.

Those of the fiend sects referred to him as the thousand-faced assassin.

The girl in pink only knew that this person was a fiend heir from this generations Hidden Death Sect.

With talent comparable to powerhouses of ancient fiend sects, he was regarded as the strongest fiend heir of Hidden Death Sect!

Both the girl in pinks Pure Maiden Sect and the thousand-faced assassins Hidden Death Sect were part of the seven fiend sects.

The moment Su Zimo issued the warning, the girl in pink was reminded of that terrifying figure and retreated right away!

However, what surprised the girl in pink was that the thousand-faced assassin chose to retreat after killing two people.

This meant that there was someone among them that made the thousand-faced assassin feel threatened, so he did not continue to take the risk.

Within the same level, the thousand-faced assassin had killed countless of geniuses and without failing once.

His remarkable track record rendered many demon cultivators speechless!

On the one hand, it was because the thousand-faced assassins methods were cold and harsh.

On the other hand, it was also proof of his cautiousness.

Just who was it that caused this strongest fiend heir of Hidden Death Sect to feel apprehensive

The girl in pink swept her gaze across Wu Xiangming and the other cultivators, finally landing on Su Zimo.

Even though the process of the thousand-faced assassins appearance to his exit seemed slow, it happened within a split second in reality.

Wu Xiangming and the rest did not have time to react to it at all.

Among those present, Su Zimo was the calmest.

Not only did he realize something was amiss, he could even retaliate!

It was evident who the thousand-faced assassin was wary of.

This was the first time that the girl in pink realized Su Zimo was not as pathetic as she had imagined.

It was especially so when he fired the arrows earlier on.

That handsome man was in fact exuding an aura so fierce it could destroy everything!

Not everyone would dare to lay a hand against a fiend heir of Hidden Death Sect.

The girl in pinks eyes lit up as she thought to herself,The way he attacked so decisively… I wonder if he would still behave the same way if he knew it was the thousand-faced assassin.”

“You know who that was”

Su Zimo stared into the girl in pinks eyes and asked, frowning.

She blinked and replied, “No, I dont.”

Su Zimo retracted his gaze.

He knew that if the girl in pink did not wish to tell, he would not get the true answer no matter how he questioned.

Not far away, there were now only two of the four Southern Mountains Sect cultivators left.

Even though the both of them looked pained, they immediately removed the storage bags from the two corpses and kept it for themselves.

‘And you call that a righteous cultivator of the orthodox path.

When the girl in pink saw that, she let out a cold smirk beneath her veil.
