Chapter 907: Chapter 907: Assassination in the Shadows

"That’s not going to work, you’re my woman, if I don’t take care of you, who will?"

Lin Kuang said with a smile, looking at the adorable Lan Ji.

"I don’t need you to take care of me, all you do is bully people."

Lan Ji said, her face blushing, leaning against Lin Kuang’s chest.

"Alright then, are you going back with me or back to Wanbao Tower?"

Lin Kuang asked again, looking at Lan Ji.

"Back to Wanbao Tower, I’m certainly not going back with a bad guy like you."

Lan Ji said shyly, her face flushing.

"Alright then, let me take you back."

Lin Kuang said with a smile.

Then, holding Lan Ji’s delicate hand, the two of them walked towards Wanbao Tower.

Their pace was slow, as if they were strolling, but they soon found themselves at Wanbao Tower.

"I’m here, I should get going."

Standing in front of Lin Kuang, Lan Ji spoke.

"Hmm, but since I brought you back, don’t you think you owe me a little reward?"

Lin Kuang asked with a mischievous smile, looking at Lan Ji’s pretty face.

Upon hearing this, Lan Ji gave Lin Kuang a sidelong glance: "Jerk, others would love to escort me and never have the chance, yet here you are taking advantage."

As she spoke, Lan Ji’s face blushed again.

"Alright then, go on back, we can meet again when there’s time. We’re staying at an inn, feel free to visit me whenever you like."

As he spoke, Lin Kuang gave Lan Ji the name of the inn and his room number.

"I’m not going."

"Okay, I’m off."

Lan Ji said with a blush, turning around to leave right after speaking.

Upon hearing this, Lin Kuang smiled and pulled Lan Ji’s small hand firmly.

As Lan Ji’s body was pulled closer, Lin Kuang gently kissed her rosy lips.

"Alright, now you can go."

Looking at Lan Ji’s blushing face, Lin Kuang said with a mischievous grin.

"You bad guy!"

Lan Ji bit her lip and said, then left quickly.

Watching Lan Ji leave, Lin Kuang smiled slightly and also turned away.

Back in her own room, Lan Ji leaned against the door, her breathing a bit rapid.

The events of today had been quite unbelievable, Lan Ji felt like she had turned silly, just letting Lin Kuang take advantage of her so easily, which left her very frustrated.

"That bad guy, why is he so attractive to me?

Did I let him take over me so easily, and will he think of me as not a proper girl?"

Lan Ji thought wildly in her mind.

At this moment, Lin Kuang was walking on the dim street, after all, there were no street lights here.

As he walked, Lin Kuang’s expression changed slightly; someone was following him!

"Three people, one True Realm expert, two Void Realm experts!"

Lin Kuang thought, his expression slightly grave, but his steps didn’t falter at all, as if nothing had happened.

"Seems like some people are suspicious of my identity.

Is this just a test, or they would rather kill the wrong person than let them go?"

Lin Kuang thought, his steps light as if nothing unusual had happened.

"Who cares, since they’ve come, they won’t be leaving.

A True Realm expert? Let’s see how strong they really are!"

Lin Kuang thought with a cold smile.

As he walked, Lin Kuang deliberately moved into a deserted corner, aiming to provoke his pursuers into action.

Sure enough, as Lin Kuang entered, two figures rushed forward, wielding longswords in their hands.

The gleaming swords pierced towards Lin Kuang’s back, aiming for a deadly strike.

However, Lin Kuang was prepared.

Just as the two appeared behind him, Lin Kuang abruptly turned around.

At the same time, a pitch-black longsword appeared in Lin Kuang’s hand — it was the Black Dragon Sword!

At that moment, the Black Dragon Sword shone with both golden and dark glows, slashing fiercely at the longswords of the enemies behind.

With a "crack" sound, the swords in the hands of the two attackers broke directly.

Meanwhile, Lin Kuang’s Black Dragon Sword swept out horizontally, slashing towards the attackers.

The two attackers couldn’t have anticipated Lin Kuang’s quick reaction and swift movement, stunning them.

But, after all, they were Void Realm experts; despite the shock, they attempted to dodge Lin Kuang’s attack immediately.

However, they underestimated Lin Kuang’s strength.

At the moment they tried to dodge, the Black Dragon Sword in Lin Kuang’s hand suddenly emitted a brilliant sword light.

As the sword light swept through, their bodies were cut into two, ending their lives.

Watching the fallen attackers, Lin Kuang didn’t even blink.

Lin Kuang knew well — the deaths of those two weren’t the real issue; the important one was the True Realm expert who had yet to act.

Lin Kuang observed carefully, feeling the location of the True Realm adept, but it seemed the person had no intention of attacking.

"Did they think they could kill me with just these two wastes, how ridiculous!"

Lin Kuang sneered and then turned to leave.

Lin Kuang’s words were completely meant for the hidden True Realm adept.

By turning away, Lin Kuang deliberately tried to lure the True Realm expert to strike, while also feigning ignorance of the adept’s presence.

Just as Lin Kuang turned, a silent figure suddenly appeared behind him.

The sword glinting with cold light thrust fiercely once again towards Lin Kuang’s back.

At this moment, Lin Kuang’s body suddenly shifted sideways while turning, the Black Dragon Sword in his hand swept horizontally, aiming for the attacker’s neck.

In truth, Lin Kuang had sensed the True Realm adept’s presence the moment they appeared.

Otherwise, Lin Kuang wouldn’t have moved so swiftly.

Though ready, the True Realm adept was still startled.

He hadn’t expected, after executing his speed to its peak and hiding himself completely, that Lin Kuang could still locate him immediately, shocking the adept immensely.

But as a True Realm adept, he was still a whole level stronger than Lin Kuang.

At this moment, the True Realm adept rapidly retreated, dodging Lin Kuang’s attack in an instant, stopping ten meters away, his eyes cautiously sizing up Lin Kuang.

Although Lin Kuang was a level lower, he emitted an incredibly dangerous vibe to the adept.

Even the slightest misstep, and he might fall at Lin Kuang’s hands!

This bizarre feeling bewildered the True Realm adept, making him somewhat disbelieving.

After all, the difference in realms was clear, and True Realm crushing Void Realm was common knowledge, an age-old truth on the Xuanwu Continent.

Yet Lin Kuang exuded such danger, which he found hard to believe.

"A True Realm adept resorting to thievery and dodging tactics?"

Facing the man before him, Lin Kuang asked with a smile, his words laced with mockery.
