Chapter 245: The Most Desired Thing – Part 1
Jin Taedo, one of the Thirty-Six Heavenly Generals, led the naval fleet including the Black Dragon ship into battle. At that moment, the Six Harmonies Sword Sect’s Pacheon Squad, considered the strongest force of the Hyeongsan Sect, was charging toward Seon Woo-jin.
Surprisingly, it was not them who attacked Seon Woo-jin’s group first.
It was the Blood Lotus, the world’s most feared assassin group.
Shriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
Projectiles flew, blanketing the space in darkness.
It was a net-like attack, occupying all space to block any escape route.
“Haahh!”
Boom!
Jin So-eun let out a battle cry and swung her long staff.
The staff spun in a circle, deflecting the projectiles like a shield.
Ting ting ting ting ting!
But at that moment, the ground beneath Jin So-eun’s feet erupted, and three assassins burst forth.
It was a deadly ambush aimed at her back the instant she blocked the dagger.
Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
Three daggers plunged into her back.
No, they nearly pierced her.
Clang!
That is, if the long staff defending her back hadn’t blocked the three daggers.
The long staff, twisting like a living dragon independent of her hands, had evaded that deadly strike.
But that wasn’t all.
“Whoosh!”
Swish-swish-swish!
The long spear parried three daggers in a spinning motion, then whirled erratically, grazing the attackers’ heads at an angle they hadn’t anticipated.
