Chapter 99: Chapter 99
Of course, it might also be evil energy or demonic Qi!
As for why it surged into Feng Qiwu’s body, it might be because he has a natural constitution that can spontaneously absorb spiritual energy or demonic Qi.
However, Bai Susu is more inclined to believe that the energy surging into Feng Qiwu’s body is demonic Qi.
If it were spiritual energy, it should be beneficial to him and shouldn’t cause such a tragic outcome as body explosion and death.
Moreover, Feng Qiwu himself just said that the force would destroy his body.
So, the question now is, where did the demonic Qi come from?
Whether it’s spiritual energy or demonic Qi, it should just be a force in the world. Even if Feng Qiwu’s constitution is special and can spontaneously absorb this force, shouldn’t others be able to feel it?
In ancient times there were never a shortage of people practicing immortality and Taoism. Their understanding of the way of heaven and earth is beyond ordinary people, could they not have noticed this point?
Yet, the text never mentioned any drastic changes in the earthly environment.
Just as Bai Susu was deep in thought, a black iron arrow suddenly broke through the air from the forest, and Feng Qiwu dodged it while holding Bai Susu.
But this arrow acted like a signal, causing all the hidden assassins nearby to come rushing out. The rightful source is NoveI(F)ire.net
In an instant, several groups of assassins dressed in different outfits appeared from the shadows, holding weapons as they charged towards Feng Qiwu and Bai Susu.
The number seemed to be at least three or four hundred.
Clearly, these assassins all hailed from different countries, but since they had a common target, Feng Qiwu, they oddly cooperated, each occupying a position, giving Feng Qiwu no chance of escape.
Seeing the swarm of assassins emerging around them, Feng Qiwu pulled Bai Susu into his embrace, then glanced coldly around.
"A bunch of gutter rats, want to ambush me?" Feng Qiwu sneered contemptuously.
In the next moment, he directly drew the soft sword at his waist, while still holding Bai Susu, casually swinging the longsword in his hand.
Instantly, the thin and soft sharp sword emitted a clear sword hum.
Then, like a deadly venomous snake, each strike of the sword brought forth an arrow of blood shooting high.
This was Bai Susu’s first time facing the act of killing directly.
Even though she had seen many scenes of life and death in hospitals, wielded a scalpel for various bloody surgeries, and performed autopsies on corpses, her stomach still churned at this moment.
Yet, she forced herself to calm down immediately and swallowed back the rising bile.
In a fight against hundreds, Feng Qiwu absolutely can’t be distracted now.
Not causing trouble, not screaming, is the greatest support she can provide.
Even though Feng Qiwu was always killing enemies, his attention never once strayed from Bai Susu.
Seeing her face turn pale, yet still biting her lip hard, calmly gripping his arm, the corners of his lips couldn’t help but twitch.
He calmly said to Bai Susu, "Close your eyes if you’re scared."
Bai Susu naturally wanted to close her eyes.
But at this moment, her eyes seemed out of her control, watching Feng Qiwu’s sword continue to swing.
Suddenly, an assassin shouted aloud, "Kill Bai Susu first!"
A Crown Prince who can’t even protect his own woman would only become the object of ridicule even if he survives!
Moreover, even if they can’t kill Feng Qiwu, they could spread rumors that Feng Qiwu used Bai Susu as a human shield, causing her death.
However, this person had no idea that his words directly touched Feng Qiwu’s deepest nerve.
"Originally, I wanted to play with you slowly."
"Since you’re so anxious to die, I will fulfill your wish!"
With that, Feng Qiwu’s gaze instantly filled with a furious chill, and the longsword in his hand suddenly exploded with powerful sword Qi, sweeping horizontally towards the surrounding assassins.
Every assassin participating in this task of assassinating Feng Qiwu was a top-tier killer meticulously cultivated by various nations.
But at this moment, they were like clay chickens and pottery dogs, instantly killed by Feng Qiwu in one sword strike.
His sword... didn’t even directly hit any one of them!
Witnessing this scene, even these assassins who prided themselves on being accustomed to cruel sights couldn’t help but feel their hearts tremble with fear.
The Daqin Crown Prince Feng Qiwu... just how strong is he?
Though it was known he once killed dozens of enemy troops with a single sword on the battlefield, the population density there can’t compare to now, even they themselves would be confident to achieve such a feat on the battlefield.
But now Feng Qiwu faces these elite assassins with tremendous martial arts skills!
And he carries a burden in his embrace.
Despite this, he still slays more than a dozen people with one sword!
No wonder the master ordered them to spare no expense in assassinating Feng Qiwu during this autumn hunt.
Given time for Feng Qiwu to grow, would there be anyone able to challenge him?
Once he ascends the throne, with his disposition, he might soon launch a war to unify the world.
Thinking of this, the assassins pressed down their fear of Feng Qiwu and attacked him again.
Feng Qiwu’s gaze turned even more violent.
These guys, all deserve to die!
His hand gripping the sword hilt bulged with veins, and in the next moment, Feng Qiwu coldly and indifferently slashed consecutively with seven or eight strikes.
Each sword strike released sharp and terrifying sword Qi from the tip, like the reaper’s scythe, reaping more than a dozen lives, making the remaining assassins have the urge to turn and flee.
But thinking of the consequences of fleeing on their own, they had no choice but to continue facing Feng Qiwu, the killing god.
Soon, the once romantic and beautiful pink sea of flowers was stained red with flowing blood.
Just then, a strange voice, somewhat effeminate, came through.
"Unexpectedly, the cold and merciless Daqin Crown Prince is enraged because of a woman."
"Someone said you’re afflicted by the red-riddled star, I didn’t believe it, but it seems true today, hahahaha..."
As his words fell, the piles of corpses on the ground suddenly exploded.
The originally messy ground immediately became covered with flesh and blood, making it impossible to set foot.
Meanwhile, the surrounding sky began to change, turning from clear to dark.
As the light dimmed, the environment immediately became gloomy and terrifying, pulling people into hell instantly, making it extremely frightening.
Bai Susu’s temples jumped wildly, her body growing colder.
As a result, she didn’t notice that Feng Qiwu’s face at this moment looked rather unusual.
