The assassin who had parried an attack from the air, despite being severely wounded, despite barely being able to stand steady, despite knowing he was done for, still had a strong will to survive and wanted desperately to flee, and still hoped for his accomplices to come and save him.
However, the two people he attempted to assassinate didn't give him a chance to escape; they seized the opportunity as he was weakened to take his life.
One repelled him in mid-air, while the other immediately followed, swiftly closing in for the kill.
He swayed, trying to muster his last strength to counterattack, but he noticed that his opponent's offense was unusual.
Shi Chun, who was rushing towards him, suddenly puffed up his cheeks and sprayed out a mix of unswallowed liquor and debris from his mouth, aiming straight for the assassin's face.
The assassin, already drained, couldn't think straight and didn't recognize the killing technique, meeting it with full force.
