While Hou Yan was conversing with the system, someone struck at him from behind. Unfortunate for him, Hou Yan ducked in order to pick up a coin that he accidentally dropped.
Seeing this, the expert was truly shocked. When Hou Yan felt the punch that missed him, his back began to soak with cold sweat. Yikes, if he were hit by it, he would truly be hospitalized for centuries.
Jumping far away from the mysterious expert that struck at him, Hou Yan began to question him.
"Who are you fatty?!"
"Who are you calling a fatty?!" The fatty expert responded back with a vein popping from his forehead.
"You! Who else?"
"YOU!" The fatty expert was truly enraged. He yelled at Hou Yan while spit was shooting out of his mouth.
The fatty expert ran at Hou Yan with incomprehensible speed. His fat was jiggling so hard, it was creating wind currents. Seeing this, Hou Yan was flabbergasted. How could a fatty like him run faster than sound? Truly incomprehensible.
Arriving in front of Hou Yan in seconds, no in nanoseconds, and launched a barrage of punches at him. Although the punches looked soft, the tremendous amount of strength behind it was truly shocking.
Catching Hou Yan off-guard, the fatty was successful in hurting Hou Yan, but with a backflip, Hou Yan was able to distance himself from the fatty. Blood was oozing from the corners of Hou Yan's lips. While thinking on how to defeat this fatty, an unexpected kick hits his ass from behind. That kick launched him into the air, but it wasn't over yet. Another expert could be seen falling from the sky with a kick aimed at Hou Yan's abdomen.
Seeing this, Hou Yan grimaced. How the hell is he going to survive from this predicament? First, it was a fatty, then it was an ass kicker, and now it was some weirdo who was trying to obliterate his abdomen. Seeing how grave and serious the situation was, Hou Yan pulled out his blade.
The blade was long and sharp. Its color was metallic black and light was reflecting from it. It was like aiming a mirror at the sun and reflecting light.
Still, in the air, Hou Yan used one of his skills, Heavenly steps, and flew a bit away from the trajectory of the kick. When the experts saw what had happened, they were truly astonished. They didn't think he would be able to move in the air and thought that kick would finish him for good.
Landing on his two feet, Hou Yan moved away from where he landed. Seconds later, a fireball landed on his place and exploded. He would've been injured if he didn't move.
From his left, a skinny expert struck at him with his sword. Seeing the skinny expert engaging him in a swordfight, Hou Yan didn't hold back and slashed at him.
The skinny expert blocked the slash and the fatty struck at Hou Yan with his fist, but Hou Yan dodged to the side and threw a punch at him. Although he didn't use a skill, the punch still carried a tremendous amount of strength.
The fatty was sweating beads when he saw the incoming fist. Seeing one of their friends in trouble, the other experts didn't dally around and struck at Hou Yan.
When Hou Yan saw them striking at him, He had to change his trajectory to the expert that had tried to obliterate his stomach. (We shall call him long neck expert).
When the fist connected with the long neck expert's stomach, he spewed out blood and his body flew backward. Seeing long neck flying back, the other experts went after him.
Seeing this, Hou Yan prepared some explosives and threw them at long neck expert. The other experts raised their speed and grabbed long neck expert and jumped away from the area.
BOOM
The area exploded but no one was harmed. Hou Yan went after the fatty that jumped to the right because he was all alone. Without letting fatty expert prepare, Hou Yan launched a strike at him. The slash was able to cut off the fatty's left leg and caused him to scream.
This much wasn't enough to take down the fatty so Hou Yan prepared his next strike. Unlike the previous, this one was a special kind of strike. It was one of the moves of the Executioner's slash.
Channeling his Qi into the blade, Hou Yan got into a stance and began to execute the first slash of <
"Executioner's Slash: DEADLY SLASH!"
When Hou Yan screamed deadly slash, it got the attention of the other two. Seeing fatty was about to get hit by an unknown attack, they began to get anxious.
The deadly slash was heading towards the fatty. Seeing this, the fatty prepared all of his defenses and focused it on where it was going to land, but he instead underestimated the attack.
The one slash split into 5, then into 15, and lastly, into 45 slashes. They were all aimed at the number of vital points Hou Yan knew about. When each slash made an impact on the fatty's body, it caused him to scream like a pig who was about to die.
After the 45th slash, the fatty stopped screaming. It wasn't because the pain ended, but because he had died. The fatty expert who thought he could kill Hou Yan with the help of his brothers died.
When the other two saw this, they became depressed. Their brother died in front of them and they couldn't do anything. Although he had done a number of lolis, he was still their brother. If they didn't show him love, who would?
"YOU!!! HOW DARE YOU KILL OUR BROTHER?! I SHALL CUT YOU INTO THOUSANDS OF PIECES!"
The long-necked expert screamed and ran towards Hou Yan. Because anger got the best of him, he ran at Hou Yan like a savage about to hunt a lion barehanded.
"NOOOO! COME BACK! BROTHER!"
Although the other one shouted him to come back, it was truly useless. He couldn't hear his brother screaming towards him. The only thing he was hearing was, 'kill this bastard!'.
"DIEEEEEE"
He launched a punch at Hou Yan that carried all of his power in it. When Hou Yan saw the amount of power in that punch, he began to laugh. Was he making fun of him? Hmph, if these idiots don't learn who is the king, they will truly think highly of themselves.
Getting into a stance, Hou Yan began to channel Qi into his blade. This time, he channeled more Qi in order to execute the second slash of <
"Executioner's Slash: SOUL SLASH!"
When the long-necked expert saw the slash incoming towards him, he began to smirk.
"Hehe, I already knew you would try to use a similar skill like the one before. Hehe, I'll have you know I am known for my strong defense!"
Saying that long neck expert got into a stance and readied himself for the incoming attack. He activated the skill he is famous for, <
When Hou Yan's attack reached him, it didn't split into multiple slashes like deadly slash but stayed as one slash. The slash itself generated a white colored slash and flew towards long neck expert.
When he saw the white slash coming at him, color began to drain out of his body. The other expert that was watching all of these began to shed tears of blood. He first lost his fatty brother to this monster and now he was going to lose his long-necked brother. Although his long-necked brother liked to suck stranger's dicks if he didn't show him love, who would?
"NOOOO!"
The white slash went through one part of long neck expert's body and came out of the other side and dissipated afterward. Civilians would think that the white slash just went through his body, but soul cultivators would immediately realize that the slash cut long neck's soul into two.
The long-necked expert didn't even get time to scream out the pain. Instead, his body just fell to the ground.
When the last expert saw this, he finally realized, they had truly fucked up. Realizing at the situation he was in, he began to run away as fast as he could. He couldn't die and waste the sacrifices his brothers did for him.
When Hou Yan saw him running away, he began to laugh out loud like a maniac. Then, he threw his blade at the running guy. The blade accurately went through the back and came out of the other side. If the sword went through some random place of the man's body, then it wouldn't be enough to take him down, but the sword went through the spot where the man's heart.
When the man died, the blade began to shake a little. Although unnoticeable, it wasn't able to escape from Hou Yan's eyes. Seeing the strange movement of his blade, Hou Yan went towards it.
When he arrived at the place, he saw his sword absorbing the man's blood and Qi. Hou Yan was confused as to why it was doing that, but the system answered his question.
'Host needs not to worry about that. The executioner's blade is different than other blades. When you execute someone, it absorbs their blood, Qi, and soul. With all of these three things being absorbed by it, it refines them and increases its strength and its owner's strength. The sword receives 10% of the amount it refined, while the owner receives 90% of the amount that was refined.
"Wow! I am truly lucky to have such a good blade. Hehe, better absorb all of the guards and the other experts' blood, Qi, and soul!"
'Well, Host better hurry because, after a while, the Qi and soul begin to dissipate and enter reincarnation cycle.'
Hearing the system's words, Hou Yan ran back at full speed at the dead bodies that were laying around and stabbed his sword into them. In order to speed up the absorption speed, Hou Yan channeled his Qi into the sword and began to help it absorb faster.
After a while, Hou Yan had absorbed the 40 guards and 3 experts' Qi, blood, and soul. Unlike before, his sword looks much shinier and sharper than before. Right now, it was so sharp, it could cut even space itself.
Finishing his business, Hou Yan ran away from the scene and headed towards the inn he was staying at. Unbeknownst to him, there was someone who witnessed everything in stealth mode.
The hidden person who watched everything that happened was sweating beads of cold sweat. During the fight, when the hidden man saw Hou Yan brutally fisting the guards, he was truly scared. He even clenched his buttcheeks, scared that he might be a victim of that skill. ((Little does he know, he will later have a gaping asshole hehe)).
Getting out of stealth mode, the man stepped out of the place he was hiding at with stealth mode.
Getting ready to leave, he muttered, "I must report this back to mas--."
