He took a breath and, looking at the number on the Law Code, Li Nuo's face showed an expression of extreme agony.
"Name: Li Nuo."
"Lifespan: One day."
More than two hundred days of lifespan, exchanged for a moment's double the strength of the Fourth Realm.
Seizing the moment while the assassin was unguarded, he struck a surprise attack that killed with a single blow.
The lifespan left on the Law Code was now only one day.
This day was probably protected by some automatic mechanism of the Law Code.
Otherwise, before he could counter-kill the assassin, he would have already perished from spontaneous death.
At that time, his situation left no room for prolonged thought.
Faced with a Martial Artist of the Fourth Realm, any hesitation of even one second would mean his head would fall to the ground.
Capturing a Martial Path expert of the Fourth Realm only added a hundred days to his lifespan.
A single use of his cultivation cost him more than two hundred days.
