Free Web NovelChapter 228: Chapter 228: Corrupted Blood _1
Under the cover of night, the Bloodthirsty Killer God’s inquiries, laced with fear, reached the ears of the assassins lurking nearby.
"Am I hearing things? Is the Bloodthirsty Killer God actually afraid?"
"He has always been fearless of heaven and earth, even death doesn’t scare him. What is it about Ye Ming that can make the Bloodthirsty Killer God quiver with fear?"
With puzzled looks, everyone continued to watch the battle, and up to now, no one dared to step forward.
Ye Ming gave a faint smile and said, "I know far more than just that, so do you still want to continue?"
The pride deep in the Bloodthirsty Killer God’s bones was thoroughly shattered. At this moment, how could he dare to confront Ye Ming? His only thought was to run, to flee the grasp of this devil.
It all happened in a flash. In an urgent scramble, the Bloodthirsty Killer God got up swiftly and bolted into the distance.
His fighting spirit was completely gone, and he dared not fight Ye Ming anymore.
As he ran, he couldn’t help but look back at Ye Ming.
And at that moment, Ye Ming still stood in his original spot, seemingly not afraid of him running away at all.
That was the effect he wanted.
He wanted all the assassins lurking around to see how the Bloodthirsty Killer God was killed by him.
To destroy the spirit in killing—that was the effect Ye Ming desired.
Only when the other party had run a certain distance did Ye Ming finally start to move. freёwebnovel.com
His figure flashed and vanished under the night sky; when he reappeared, he was already in front of the Bloodthirsty Killer God.
His speed was so fast that it was impossible to track with the naked eye; one couldn’t even discern his trajectory.
With a ’whoosh,’ Ye Ming’s fist had already pierced through his opponent’s chest, followed by another ferocious punch to the chin.
The distinctive fangs used for sucking blood, unique to the offspring of the Blood Clan, were sent flying by Ye Ming.
Under the night sky, a spine-chilling scream echoed.
The notorious Bloodthirsty Killer God of the martial world was thus eliminated by Ye Ming in an exceedingly brutal way.
As his body collapsed vertically and lay motionless, exclamations of shock arose from around.
"How can there be someone so formidable in this world? A bounty of a billion is indeed not easy to earn. I’m done with this job; anyone who wants it can have a go!"
"A billion is indeed tempting, but compared to my own life, I value my life more. Even if I have the life to make money, I might not have the life to spend it!"
"I’m out, you guys can keep playing if you want!"
Some of the more timid assassins were already scared out of their wits and fled from their hiding places, intending to leave.
The Bloodthirsty Killer God was such a figure, a role model in their assassin’s world, a Killer God who had never failed. But now, Ye Ming killed him using an extremely cruel method, leaving this god of killers utterly powerless to retaliate.
There were still some greedy assassins who valued money over their lives, remaining hidden and thinking that Ye Ming had not discovered them yet, waiting for an opportunity to strike.
Standing in the wilderness, Ye Ming coldly said, "I’m giving you one last chance to run for your lives. If you think you can try, I can guarantee that you will end up worse than him."
As soon as his voice fell, an overwhelming aura of a powerful person exploded out, dispersing in all directions.
The remaining assassins were frightened by this powerful momentum, some already had shaky legs.
Ye Ming said no more and turned to leave.
In just one day’s time, several hundred top assassins from around the world were dealt with by Ye Ming, their bodies converging outside an abandoned factory on the outskirts of Ningjiang City.
The remaining assassins, like fleeing for their lives, left Ningjiang City at all costs. freewebnøvel.com
...
Late into the night, in a hotel room, Xia Ningning lay alone, unable to sleep.
She kept looking at the sofa where Ye Ming was sleeping, concern evident in her eyes.
Although it had been only a few days, Xia Ningning had already grown accustomed to sharing a room with Ye Ming.
Glancing at the time, it was already midnight.
Xia Ningning muttered to herself, "Where on earth have you gone? You didn’t go looking for your fiancée, did you?"
Although Ye Ming had only been in Ningjiang City for a few days, he had already attracted many women, and none of them were ordinary—each one was a great beauty.
Xia Ningning felt a sense of crisis building in her heart; she feared Ye Ming’s resolve might be wavering, afraid that he couldn’t resist the temptation.
With that thought, various scenarios had already started playing out in her mind.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became, and she thought about getting up to look for him.
Just then, there was a click at the door.
A weary Ye Ming walked in from outside.
"What have you been doing?" Xia Ningning asked, scrutinizing him intently.
"Dealt with some tricky issues," Ye Ming replied briefly, and then he took off his shirt and went into the bathroom.
Xia Ningning wanted to scream, but when she saw the muscular contours of Ye Ming’s body, she couldn’t help but take a few extra glances, her face turning instantly red.
"Such a physique..."
Xia Ningning swallowed and then realized her thoughts had gone astray.
She shook her head and muttered to herself, "Straight to the bathroom the moment he returns—he must have been up to no good! I’ll have to tell Le Le about this!"
Having said that, Xia Ningning started a video chat with Xu Lele.
Sitting in the bathroom, Ye Ming’s gaze was fixed on his wound.
The part that had been tainted with Corrupted Blood had now turned into a mass of necrotic flesh, but fortunately, it was contained by his True Qi from spreading further.
Despite this, Ye Ming couldn’t help but feel astounded.
The descendants of the Blood Clan were indeed formidable.
He bore the pain as he cut away the necrotic flesh, then used Spirit Spring Water combined with the True Qi within his body to heal his wounds.
"Corrupted Blood, so sinister and ruthless," Ye Ming exclaimed.
Little did anyone know, Ye Ming was the only person to have survived the affliction of Corrupted Blood so far.
The reputation of the Bloodthirsty Killer God spread far and wide across the globe not only due to his precision and almost abnormal physical strength but also because of the Corrupted Blood within him.
Those who were contaminated with it would die a gruesome death; hardly any survived. Even those who were lucky enough to live were left in a vegetative state, better off dead than alive.
Even Great Grandmasters stood no chance against it and couldn’t escape their fate.
That was until he met his nemesis, who killed him publicly. The news of how Ye Ming executed the Killer God spread wildly among the assassins, terrifying countless of them.
A hefty bounty remained unclaimed, as no one dared to touch it.
At the same time, the major assassin organizations suffered huge losses, with their well-trained assassins losing all contact after taking on what seemed like a simple task.
No one dared target that bounty anymore.
After a whole night’s recovery, the wound on Ye Ming’s hand had mostly healed.
Today was the day he had agreed with the Zhang Family to face off against Master Long.
He left home early and headed to the location chosen by the Zhang Family for the duel.
