Chapter 318: Chapter 318
Zi Shu saw Zhang Xiaohao return and, enduring the fiery pain below, struggled to stand up from the sofa.
"Bastard! You lied to me!" Zi Shu exclaimed angrily.
"What did I lie to you about?" Zhang Xiaohao asked in confusion.
He had clearly fulfilled all the promises he had made to her.
"Hmph! Have you forgotten what you promised me last night?" Zi Shu asked.
"No, I haven’t!" Zhang Xiaohao said.
"Then tell me, where did you go this morning? Why didn’t you accompany me to my cousin’s place, making me wait for you in the hotel all day for nothing!" Zi Shu said angrily.
"Oh, that matter!" Zhang Xiaohao said.
Just as he was about to explain, there was a knock on the door.
"Wait inside for me, I have some business to discuss," Zhang Xiaohao instructed.
"Hmph!" Zi Shu snorted coldly and laboriously made her way to the bedroom.
Zhang Xiaohao opened the door to find an average-looking man with a commonplace face, dressed in a waiter’s outfit, standing outside.
"Who are you looking for?" Zhang Xiaohao asked with a frown.
"Wasn’t it you who called me up here?" Xu Tianxing said.
Zhang Xiaohao took a serious look at him, then suddenly burst into a happy smile.
"Come in," Zhang Xiaohao said.
Having said that, he turned and walked inside.
But he deliberately slowed his pace.
Seeing Zhang Xiaohao’s behavior, Xu Tianxing sneered to himself.
"Die, you little twerp!"
With a flip of his palm, he drew a sharp dagger coated with deadly poison.
With a step, he viciously stabbed towards Zhang Xiaohao’s back.
Just as the dagger was about to pierce Zhang Xiaohao’s back, a strong, powerful hand casually caught the incoming dagger.
"What? Impossible!" Seeing this, Xu Tianxing cried out in disbelief.
He instantly let go of the dagger and took three steps back, creating distance between himself and Zhang Xiaohao.
"Who sent you?" Zhang Xiaohao asked playfully.
"Hmph! Surely you must have heard of the John family," Xu Tianxing said coldly.
"They really are like stubborn ghosts! Looks like I’ll need to find some time to take care of them," Zhang Xiaohao said indifferently.
"Tell me, how did you detect me?" Xu Tianxing asked with a cold face.
Considering his many years as an assassin and mastery of various disguises, he had never failed once, even against the strongest foes.
But this time, he had failed with Zhang Xiaohao.
"Your True Qi is incredibly strong! If I’m not mistaken, you must be a vampire!" said Zhang Xiaohao.
"You’ve got sharp eyes, kid! You actually guessed my identity in one try," Xu Tianxing admitted.
"I’m curious! With your strength, how can you be willing to work for them?" Zhang Xiaohao countered.
"Since you’re about to die, there’s no harm in telling you! Because I owe a favor to John Sharo’s mother," Xu Tianxing said.
"Uh-huh, do you have any last words?" Zhang Xiaohao asked.
"What do you mean?" Xu Tianxing asked, puzzled.
"Now that you’ve said your piece, it’s time for you to be on your way," Zhang Xiaohao said.
"Ha ha! Kid, I admit you’re strong, but you’re not qualified to kill me," Xu Tianxing said with a cold laugh.
"Then let’s give it a try!" Zhang Xiaohao said, amused.
He took a step and quickly charged forward.
His right hand swept out, and a golden palm seal burst forth, ferociously charging at the other party.
Xu Tianxing’s clothes shattered, revealing two huge blood-red wings on his back.
The mouth was bitterly cold and it sprouted two massive, blood-red fangs.
The fingernails grew out of thin air by ten centimeters at that moment.
"Eastern martial arts? Break for me!" Xu Tianxing snorted coldly.
His dominating five claws struck out, shooting forth a massive gust of wind toward the Sky Flipping Seal.
The Sky Flipping Seal shattered under the domineering force, and Xu Tianxing’s five claws grabbed Zhang Xiaohao’s fist.
Clang, clang, clang...
A series of sparks shot out.
"Back off!" Zhang Xiaohao growled.
He pressed his fist down furiously, the immense force directly blasting into Xu Tianxing’s arm, pushing him back three steps.
"You’re strong! Logically, knowing that I’m outmatched, I should retreat! But I’m someone who values promises greatly. Since I’ve promised the other party, I must fight tonight regardless of life or death! This isn’t the place for a fight, let’s move to a more open area and settle this!" Xu Tianxing said gravely.
"Fine," Zhang Xiaohao nodded.
With a tap of his foot, Xu Tianxing vanished in a few flashes. The rıghtful source is 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹✦𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖✦𝓷𝓮𝓽
"Stay in the room and don’t come out!" Zhang Xiaohao left those words behind.
He fast pursued using the Twelve Heavenly Steps.
The two stopped in a small grove behind the Mountain and Water Hotel.
Xu Tianxing looked at Zhang Xiaohao with a serious expression.
He took out a plain white handkerchief from his bosom, his eyes softening, gently caressing the white handkerchief in his hand.
A full five minutes passed.
Xu Tianxing raised his head, looked at Zhang Xiaohao, and said, "If I die, please give this white handkerchief to a girl named Chen Lu in the Chinatown of M country!"
After speaking, he tore a piece from his clothing, solemnly wrapped the white handkerchief, and placed it on a nearby tree branch.
"If it were someone else, I wouldn’t agree! But you, I’ve decided to make an exception just this once," Zhang Xiaohao nodded.
"Thank you!" Xu Tianxing said.
"Kill!" After saying this, Xu Tianxing let out a low roar, and a violent murderous aura erupted crazily from within him.
The two wings behind him beat once, whipping up a red hurricane, while his hands swung ferociously, aiming a vicious claw at Zhang Xiaohao’s face.
"Well met!" Zhang Xiaohao laughed loudly.
With a tap of his foot, a hint of black luster appeared on his body.
He executed military boxing, creating a massive wave of air, striking toward Xu Tianxing.
A series of metallic clangs emanated wildly from where their hands met.
Even though Xu Tianxing had used every technique at his disposal, against Zhang Xiaohao’s powerful Physical Body, he was still getting battered.
Gradually, as time passed,
Traces of crimson blood appeared on Xu Tianxing’s body.
The blood at the corners of his mouth kept flowing endlessly out.
"Death comes!" Xu Tianxing roared!
The two wings in the air flapped violently and, with a dive, he used the force of the descent to strike Zhang Xiaohao’s head with his right palm.
"It’s time to end this!" Zhang Xiaohao said sternly.
Vast True Qi circulated on the surface of his fist, and all the weight of his Divine Power burst forth, making the air itself seem to tremble under that punch.
The tyrannical iron fist collided with the claw.
Xu Tianxing’s body, like a meteor, flew backward through the air and crashed onto the ground in a pitiful heap.
His internal organs severely damaged, he spewed out a mouthful of blood.
Zhang Xiaohao walked over calmly.
"The moment I saw you, based on the occasional aura you revealed, I knew I was no match for you. Now, it’s exactly as I expected," Xu Tianxing said with a wry smile.
