Chapter 1132: Chapter 1102: Night of the Waning Moon (4)
"Bring it on!" Adam shouted towards the Eastern Three Provinces, the silver thread in his hand flicking and shooting towards the Eastern Three Provinces. Seeing the petite figure rising sharply, the Eastern Three Provinces let out a light snort, tapping the ground repeatedly with footsteps, creating a nearly parabolic trajectory, soaring high into the sky, performing a graceful aerial flip, narrowly escaping Adam’s lock.
Just as the Eastern Three Provinces leaped above Adam’s head, Adam’s left fist suddenly swung, crashing into the desk in front of him, forcefully halting his own explosive charge. Simultaneously, he twisted his waist, causing his entire body to rise horizontally, swinging his right foot like an iron whip towards the Eastern Three Provinces’ thigh. Despite being a petite and cute girl, her martial arts skills were deadlier than anyone else’s.
The entire process was too swift, so much so that Xiao Lin, waiting outside, hadn’t even sorted out his thoughts before the two had already collided, engaging in a life-and-death battle.
Adam Gadmon was here to kill the Eastern Three Provinces, judging from his deadly moves, it was clear he had no intention of leaving her alive. However, Robert had brought the Seven-Level Code and Clown to capture the Eastern Three Provinces. What went wrong in between? No one had anticipated that the Eastern Three Provinces would compete with Adam, known for speed. This, undoubtedly, revealed his formidable strength.
"I dare you to hurt him! I’ll make sure you die a horrible death!" Just as the two were about to collide again, a figure rushed in from a step away from Xiao Lin. A head of short, golden hair emerged from the black attire, Nicholas turned his body sharply, rapidly kicking his legs, fiercely attacking the Eastern Three Provinces’ swung right leg.
Meanwhile, Adam narrowed his eyes, the silver thread in his hand tensing up, his footsteps shifting in a strange trajectory, gliding with a seeming slowness, yet swiftly like lightning, once again attacking the Eastern Three Provinces during a moment of pause, leaping in front of him, crossing his hands behind him. At this time, Nigulais was already attacking the Eastern Three Provinces’ chest with a fierce right leg.
"Nicholas? How come you’re here?" The sudden appearance of the person made Yelu Shou tighten his grip on Xiao Lin’s shoulder. He could no longer comprehend this bizarre phenomenon, nor could he understand the mastermind’s thoughts behind all this. If they were to kill, why was there a need for a hostage?
Sensing the intense killing intent emanating from the two, the Eastern Three Provinces’ expression grew heavy. Her swinging right leg didn’t pause at all; however, its trajectory altered slightly, charging towards Nicholas’s swinging legs.
Bang! Both their bodies trembled violently. Nicholas’s attack was indisputably sharp, but compared to the Eastern Three Provinces at that moment, he immediately sensed the difference. Xiao Lin, observing from the side, seemed to have a different opinion, feeling that Nicholas didn’t go all out with his attack. He sensed that Nicholas didn’t intend to kill the Eastern Three Provinces; the previous killing intent was entirely because of Adam.
A surge of numbness with implicit sharp pain quickly swept through Nicholas’s entire right leg. Amidst the rampant strength, he retreated a few steps before stabilizing his posture. Glancing lightly at the bleeding wound, he noticed Adam had already silently approached the Eastern Three Provinces, the silver thread lightly flicking around the Eastern Three Provinces’ ankle.
The sudden intense pain spreading from the foot made the Eastern Three Provinces angrily turn their head and simultaneously deliver a palm strike to Adam’s chest. At the same time, Number Two had already crossed through the Seven-Level Code and arrived beside the Eastern Three Provinces to fend off Nicholas’s vigorous strike.
Fist collided with fist, and leg struck against leg, the powerful impact in the confined space shattered the tables and chairs. Nicholas’s eyes flashed with fierce light; he had never known there was such a character in his territory, inevitably glancing at the Eastern Three Provinces. Determining that he didn’t harbor any killing intentions towards Adam, Nicholas shifted his focus onto this eerie figure that sent shivers down one’s spine. "Drink!" He let out an angry roar, flipping his palms, sweeping with formidable momentum towards Number Two, creating spiraling air currents that fiercely slashed towards his chest and heart area, hitting without suspense due to the terrifying speed.
It was Xiao Lin’s first genuine glimpse into Nicholas’s hidden strength, yet he believed this was merely a fraction of it. This person, like his current style, remained deeply concealed and elusive.
"Shou, I’ll restrain that Number Two, Adam and the others are your responsibility." With that, Xiao Lin had already appeared in front of Number Two, whereas Yelu Shou, receiving the command, seemed somewhat bewildered.
"Hey, we meet again!"
Nicholas was taken aback by Xiao Lin’s sudden appearance between him and Adam, surprised by his words. Xiao Lin eyed the expressionless Number Two, pondering if this person recognized him. He seemed unfamiliar, but regardless of recognition, it wasn’t significant. As the opponent bypassed him to launch an attack on Nicholas, Xiao Lin stepped forward to intercept the trajectory, standing horizontally in front of him, though his hands remained in his pockets.
Yelu Shou exhaled loudly, recklessly darting in. In truth, he didn’t believe they were meddling without reason this time. "Come quickly with me!" Saying this to Nicholas, he had already reached the Eastern Three Provinces. As the two exchanged glances, Yelu Shou suddenly exclaimed. Meanwhile, Nicholas seized the opportunity during the Eastern Three Provinces’ momentary hesitation to deliver a palm strike to his left shoulder. Simultaneously, Adam vigorously pulled backward with both hands, tightening the silver thread circling the Eastern Three Provinces’ ankle.
"Courting death!" Originally planning to spare Adam, the Eastern Three Provinces roared fiercely, intimidating the Seven-Level Code, prepared to escape via the balcony, with one hand holding the unconscious Robert, while the other shouldered the Clown.
Bang bang! A series of muffled sounds rang out consecutively. The Eastern Three Provinces’ left palm continued to strike Nicholas’s chest. Amid the evident sound of bone cracking, the strike launched Nicholas into the air, blood gushing from his mouth. At this moment, Xiao Lin frowned, watching as Nicholas fell to the ground, while Adam had already utilized her petite body to catch his downward momentum from behind.
"Let them go!" The Eastern Three Provinces shook his left foot, causing the silver thread wrapped around it to fall to the ground. "Put that person down!"
The Seven-Level Code felt a sense of pressure from behind. Without turning around, he merely watched the Eastern Three Provinces before dropping Robert to the ground without hesitation. When he turned, he was involuntarily confronted by four identical faces behind, silently and creepily closing in, without noticing them at all.
Nicholas grabbed hold of Adam, who was preparing for battle again, shaking his head at her. Meanwhile, Xiao Lin had already engaged with Number Two. (To be continued.
