Su Hao quickly made a decision and immediately shouted to everyone, "Wait for me a moment. I need to relieve myself."
Then he took off the giant package and placed it on the ground. Taking two steps forward, he whispered, "Father, no matter what I tell you later, don't show any abnormal reactions."
Wu Yuntian nodded imperceptibly.
Su Hao said rapidly, "There are about ten people hiding on both sides of the road, approximately 200 meters ahead. Nine of them are elite martial artists, and they're likely here to ambush and kill me."
Wu Yuntian immediately tensed up all over, but remained composed on the surface and asked, "What's going on?"
Su Hao replied, "It's hard to explain right away. First, we need to take them all down. I'll pretend to go relieve myself, then circle around from the side and deal with them all at once. As soon as I leave, Father, you should immediately inform Uncle Yong and Uncle Li. Then the three of you are responsible for protecting Xiaopang and Qingqing. I'm most worried that the enemies might launch a surprise attack on them."
Wu Yuntian immediately refused, "No way. You'll be courting death if you go alone."
Su Hao said earnestly, "Father, trust me. I've already become a grandmaster martial artist."
Wu Yuntian's heart skipped a beat. He couldn't believe it for a moment. But he knew his son never lied to him. Since he said he'd reached the grandmaster level, it must be true.
Wu Yuntian was caught in a deep internal conflict, unsure whether to trust his common sense or his son.
"Father!" Su Hao reminded.
Wu Yuntian nodded slowly.
"Wait for me a bit!" Su Hao shouted again immediately. Then, as if casually, he took out his saber from the giant package, held it in his hand, and then plunged into the tall grass beside the road.
...
On the other side, Dan Sui with a spiky head stared in Su Hao's direction with blood - red eyes filled with hatred. Seeing that Su Hao and the others had stopped, he became anxious and whispered to the middle - aged man beside him, "Dad, why did they stop?"
The middle - aged man was Dan Sui's father, Dan Liqin. He seemed like a steady and reserved person.
He gave Dan Sui a glance, with undisguised repulsion in his eyes, and said indifferently, "Don't rush. Be patient."
Dan Liqin used to dote on this son very much. One could say that whatever his son wanted, he would try to get it for him. But now that his son was disabled, somehow, he had started to feel disgusted. Was a son who couldn't have offspring still a son?
However, he tried his best to suppress this feeling of disgust and act normal.
Having heard that his enemy, Wu Xiangwu, was very powerful, he had spent a large sum of money hiring a group of professional killers, all of them elite martial artists, determined to ensure a one - strike kill and avoid any future troubles.
Dan Sui gritted his teeth and said, "Dad, I must make Wu Xiangwu die! I'll never let him go. I'll torture him and finish him off with my own hands. And that He Qingqing, that bitch, I won't spare her. If she had agreed to my demands earlier, this wouldn't have happened. It's all her fault. I want her dead."
Dan Liqin looked at his son and felt increasingly annoyed. He hissed, "Shut up. If you keep making noise, I'll tear your mouth apart."
Dan Sui stared at his father in disbelief. His father had never shouted at him before. But why today...
When did things become like this? It felt so strange!
Su Hao, holding the knife, crept closer stealthily, planning to launch a surprise attack as soon as he was discovered.
Unexpectedly, he was spotted as soon as he got within ten meters.
"Someone's approaching! It's the target." A low shout. The other nine people were instantly startled and jumped up. No longer bothering to hide, they drew their long knives.
They were all dressed in tight - fitting martial artist outfits, with black cloth covering their faces.
"Charge!" Su Hao no longer concealed his presence. The grandmaster - level blood - qi burst out suddenly, and the short distance of ten meters was covered in an instant.
"Sliding Shadow Step!" Su Hao flashed past the two nearest elite martial artists, accompanied by two cold glints.
"噗~" It was as smooth as cutting a tomato.
The two elite assassins couldn't even see Su Hao's figure clearly before their bodies went limp and they fell to the ground. Their entire necks, along with the cervical vertebrae, were severed. Only some skin and flesh were still attached, and their heads barely stayed on.
"Used too much force!" Su Hao even had the time to make a brief summary.
Before the two elite assassins hit the ground, he didn't stop moving.
"Sliding Shadow Step!"
He dodged to the side, avoiding a slashing blow, and then casually swung his long knife horizontally.
"呲!"
The assassin's entire head slid to the ground. Cutting off the head instantly to reduce the enemy's suffering was the only mercy he showed to the enemy.
Killing someone for the first time was not as he had imagined. Apart from a slight twitch of his eyelids, his heart was as calm as still water.
The enemy's death was no different from his own deaths at the hands of enemies in his previous lives.
In this short life, we all will pass away. He was just sending his enemies off a bit earlier, that's all.
"Grandmaster!!!"
The moment Su Hao sliced off a head with one strike, the remaining elite assassins were horrified. A wave of intense fear shot from the base of their spines to their heads, and their scalps almost exploded. The momentum of charging at Su Hao came to an abrupt halt.
Su Hao could even clearly see the fear in their eyes.
Elite martial artists had no chance against a grandmaster martial artist. Once they became enemies, escape was nothing but a pipe dream.
The remaining five elite assassins hesitated, not knowing what to do for a moment.
"Impossible!" Dan Sui, who was grabbed by the collar and hidden behind by his father, Dan Liqin, saw that the hired assassins didn't dare to go forward and immediately shouted frantically, "How could he be a grandmaster? Have you ever seen a grandmaster this young? Go on, kill him, kill him!"
Su Hao swung his knife, flicking off the blood, which formed a bloodstain on the ground. He gave a big smile and said, "Student Dan Sui? What a coincidence!"
Dan Liqin immediately turned Dan Sui's face around and slapped him a few times, cursing angrily, "You fool, shut up!"
Dan Liqin knew his stuff. Just by observing the speed at which Su Hao swung his knife, he was certain that it was beyond the capabilities of an elite warrior.
He was also a senior high - level elite martial artist. He had been trying to engrave a beast pattern for years but had never succeeded. He was stuck at the stage of completely drawing the beast - pattern design.
When he opened his eyes to look at the beast pattern, he remembered the lines. But when he closed his eyes to try to draw it in his body, he forgot.
So he would open his eyes to remember again, and when he remembered, he would close his eyes to engrave, only to forget again. After going through this cycle for several years, he hadn't been able to complete a single engraving, let alone make fine - adjustments.
This short - term memory problem was driving Dan Liqin crazy.
At this moment, Dan Liqin cursed his troublesome son in his heart. Why did he have to provoke a genius grandmaster? He already had the urge to retreat.
Suddenly, an idea popped into his head, and he shouted loudly, "If you all want to survive, go and grab some hostages up front!"
After saying that, he immediately dragged Dan Sui and started running backward.
Su Hao's eyes instantly turned cold, and he murmured, "Do you think you have a chance to take hostages?"
"Go and grab someone!" One of the assassins shouted.
As soon as the words were out, a big - sized elite assassin stupidly rushed straight towards Wu Yuntian and the others.
The other four elite assassins immediately scattered and fled.
Su Hao's feet kicked up, sending mud and stones flying as he charged towards the big - sized assassin first.
The big - sized assassin instantly realized he had been tricked by his companions. Before Su Hao's knife pierced his heart from behind, he let out a shrill scream, "You guys betrayed me!!!"分享苏浩是如何发现敌人的埋伏的?吴云天会如何应对敌人的埋伏?苏浩接下来会怎么做?图像生成帮我写作AI 搜索AI 阅读学术搜索解题答疑音乐生成更多
