Chapter 1225: The Assassin

ant buildings in mist. They seemed to rise from the very heart of the clouds, suspended effortlessly amidst the ethereal veil. 。He had seen such a scene before. 。>> 。So... the Tiange headquarters bef...Xiao Ling's face changed, she felt the murderous aura approaching.

However, his reaction speed was far too slow compared to the speed of the red glow falling.

"Bang!"

The next second, a deafening roar.

Xiao Ling subconsciously closed her eyes.

But he didn't feel any pain. When he opened his eyes, Fang Yu had already vanished from sight.

He looked up and saw Fang Yu floating in the air.

And Fang Yu also raised his head, looking at the figure even higher up.

Seeing the attire of the figure in the sky, Fang Yu frowned slightly.

This is a traditional long robe, which is extremely rare in modern times. It can even be said that no one wears this type of robe anymore.

The color is plain, with a white band across the shoulders.

This style must have been popular over three thousand years ago, perhaps even two thousand years ago... Fangyu couldn't quite remember.

But it can certainly be said that it is not clothing worn by modern people.

The figure in the sky slowly descends.

Soon, Fang Yu would be able to see the person's face clearly.

This is a man with a goatee, an ordinary appearance, but his eyes are quite cold.

He glanced at Fang Yu and then looked down at Xiao Ling.

When he looked at Xiao Ling, a red glow flashed in his eyes, and killing intent erupted.

"Hello, who are you" Fang Yu looked at the man and asked.

The man remained impassive, offering no reply.

"You aren't also the so-called Punisher, are you" Fang Yu asked again.

As for the Punisher, he appeared once before and was easily dealt with by Fang Yu, without any pressure at all.

Of course, later when Lvyuan arrived, he said something that made Fang Yu remember it deeply.

He said the Punisher would not rest until his goal was achieved, and that if they failed once, they'd try again, sending an even stronger Punisher next time until their target was dead.

However, this time, the man's target was obviously Xiao Ling, not Fang Yu.

Therefore, it cannot be determined if this man in ancient robes is the Punisher.

Faced with Fang Yu's temperature, the man still remained silent.

He raised his right hand, starlight shimmering in his palm, and then flung it downward with a sudden force!

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."

Countless red arrows formed from condensed true energy flew downward.

This strike's range is extremely wide, encompassing both Fang Yu and Xiao Ling.

Fang Yu raised his right palm, supporting a massive golden light seal above his head.

"Boom boom boom..."

The javelin smashed into the dharma seal, erupting with bursts of power.

“I’ll take care of this person, you just watch your back.” Fang Yu said to Xiao Ling below.

Xiao Ling's face turned solemn as she nodded.

But at that moment, he suddenly noticed that the ground inside the warning line was moving.

The ground was covered in a pool of bright red liquid, bubbling more and more violently, as if it were boiling.

At the same time, the pungent odor became even more intense.

"Mr. Fang..." Xiao Ling raised her head, wanting to say something.

“I noticed that, but for now I’ll just take care of the one in front of me first and then worry about the next opponent.” Fang Yu said calmly.

"Boom!"

As soon as the words left his mouth, the man in the sky brought his hands together and unleashed a powerful beam of energy.

Fāng Yǔ raised his right hand and waved it forward.

"Whoosh!"

He wielded his palm as a sword, and with a single sweep, he formed a gigantic crescent-shaped sword energy.

"Bang!"

The sword qi sliced through the air, splitting the beam of energy that was about to strike the man in two. The now separated beams flew off in different directions.

"Boom..."

The ground struck by the two energy beams exploded directly, erupting in a deafening roar.

Seizing this opportunity, Xiao Ling immediately turned around and dashed outside.

The man in the air kept his gaze locked on Xiao Ling. With a grip of his right hand, a pitch-black spear materialized in his grasp.

He gripped his pitch-black spear tightly and hurled it toward Xiao Ling's position.

"Bang!"

The gun shot out like a dragon, the pitch-black spear booming with an explosive force, sending several black shadows flying through the air. At an incredibly terrifying speed and with overwhelming momentum, it stabbed towards Xiao Ling who was running wildly on the ground.

"Whoosh!"

However, in mid-air, a golden light flashed.

A pitch-black spear was intercepted in mid-air, and the imposing power it had condensed instantly dissipated.

"Click click click..."

Fang Yu hovered in mid-air, watching the pitch-black long spear tremble in his hand, trying to wriggle free from his control. A hint of icy amusement played on his face.

"Behave yourself."

Fang Yu clenched his right hand, releasing a burst of golden true energy.

"Boom!"

Once the qi erupted, the pitch-black spear immediately stopped vibrating and obediently lay in Fang Yu's hand.

"This long spear is made of components with an obliterating aura, but mostly an ancient one… It feels a bit familiar." Fang Yu frowned.

Then, he looked up at the man in the sky and said, "Here you go."

As soon as the words left his mouth, Fang Yu seized the pitch-black spear and hurled it towards the man's location!

The man's pupils constricted, his hands clasped together.

"Whoosh!"

A piercing sonic boom echoed through the air.

The man's figure vanished instantly, reappearing hundreds of meters away.

Above Xiao Ling!

Meanwhile, the pitch-black spear thrown by Fang Yu shot past the man's original position a second later.

But at that moment, Fang Yu extended his right index finger and gently drew a circle in the air.

Ahead of the pitch-black spear's direction, a portal suddenly appeared!

"Whoosh!"

A pitch-black spear plunged directly into the portal.

Thus, the spear's momentum and power also vanished.

Seeing this, the man in the distance frowned, looking puzzled.

But he soon lowered his head, hands clasped together, preparing to obliterate Xiao Ling below.

Xiao Ling's face darkened. With a flick of her right hand, she drew out a shimmering talisman, ready to quickly dodge.

Just then.

From afar, Fang Yu gestured again toward the man's location, extending his right hand to draw a circle in the air.

"Whoosh!"

Behind the man, a portal appeared instantly!

The terrifying aura and might, once again appear.

The man's face changed, but he was too late to react.

"Pffft!"

That pitch-black spear, still radiating its former majesty and speed, pierced the man's heart in an instant.

But this is not the end.

Fang Yu's right hand drew a circle again.

Before the man, another portal appeared.

The pitch-black spear went into this portal and came out from the one behind the man.

"Pff!"

The man's right chest was pierced.

Then, the pitch-black spear charged back into the front portal and emerged from the rear one again...

This created an infinite shuttle of space.

And the men among them were pierced through and through with their own weapons, like a colander.

Not until his body had rotted beyond recognition did Fang Yu raise his right hand and gently wave it.

Two portals, vanish directly.

And the pitch-black long spear also vanished along with the portal into nothingness.

As for the remnant in the sky, it could only fall now.

"Crack."

Just landed right in front of Xiao Ling.

Xiao Ling's eyes widened as she looked at the corpse in front of her, speechless.

"This person is pretty strong."

Fang Yu flew over from afar and landed beside Xiao Ling, together they examined the corpse before them.

But due to the dozens of spear thrusts, the body was no longer recognizable as human and held no value for study.

"I wanted to ask him some questions, but looking at him, I don't think he has any spiritual awareness left." Fang Yu looked at Xiao Ling and said, "You should know why he came to kill you, right"

Xiao Ling's face grew solemn as she slowly nodded and said, "Because I'm about to tell you some news about the extraterrestrial races."

"Where did he come from" Fang Yu asked again.

Xiao Ling shook her head slightly and said, "Where they come from, no one knows... But their common duty seems to be to hide information about the alien races."

"Whoever knows, gets silenced."

"Anything that can't be dealt with directly, then we resort to attacking those around them... And the reason why most of those top-tier cultivators I mentioned earlier are reluctant to talk about extraterrestrial matters is probably because of this."

"Then why aren't you afraid" Fang Yu asked.

"I am alone. If I die, I die." Xiao Ling smiled faintly and said, "But before I die, I hope to pass on all the information I know to those who are capable of fighting against the alien race...and the mysterious beings behind them."

"And Mr. Fang, you are the one I've been looking for."Fang Yu narrowed his eyes and thought for a moment before asking, "Do you or the Tears of Absolute Cold know what the Sky-Piercing Venerable is""I don't know." Lǐ Huòyù replied bluntly."Don't you guys...
