School Beauty's Peerless Soldier

Chapter 172: The Game


Freak!

Subconsciously, these two words popped into Xu Fan's mind.

This Dongming, clearly having been a close associate of Bingdilian for a long time, obeyed Bingdilian's orders to kill without hesitation, not only without any remorse but even with excitement...

If this isn't sickness, then what is?

"Are you curious as to why I can take down my own men so decisively and still do it?"

Seemingly in response to Xu Fan's question, Bingdilian let out a sinister laugh.

"Bingdilian's men do not need useless ones, so he deserved to die."

"But don't worry, his death was because of you, and as the boss, I will definitely seek revenge for him..."

At this point, Bingdilian gestured with his hand and commanded one of his subordinates standing nearby, "Go, bring out those two women."

"Yes, boss."

The subordinate nodded and immediately walked into a nearby tent.

Soon, only the sounds of whimpering struggles could be heard, as Zhou Keren and Xia Xiaodie were held and brought out by two men.

The two women clearly hadn't expected Xu Fan to find this place. They stared with wide eyes, desperately shaking their heads at Xu Fan!

Clearly, they wanted to tell him that this place was very dangerous and that he needed to leave immediately!

"Hahaha, it seems these two women care a lot about you. I just wonder if you, likewise, value sentimentality?"

Bingdilian squinted his eyes, enjoying the scene before him, and chuckled sinisterly as he drew a stack of Flying Blades from his waist.

The silver Flying Blades blossomed between his slender fingers, resembling a white lotus flower shimmering in sunlight.

Those familiar with Bingdilian knew well that this set of Flying Blades, which formed the petals of a lotus, was Bingdilian's signature skill!

In a fleeting moment, the lotus danced and severed a man's head!

"I'm in a good mood today, so I've decided to play a game with you. Stand still while I throw ten blades. If you're still standing after all ten blades have been thrown, hehe, I will let these two women go. How about it?"

Bingdilian's face grew even more sinisterly joyful as he envisioned the bloody scene that the game would soon create.

The ten Flying Blades slowly spun in his hand, as he murmured, "Hmm, this game is indeed not very fair, but alas, my friend, unfortunately, you have no choice."

"If you dare not agree, I dare to kill these two women immediately. Do you believe it?"

"..."

At this moment, the air around became incredibly tense, filled only with the choked sobbing of Zhou Keren and Xia Xiaodie.

In their eyes, this was not a game! It was utterly a one-sided slaughter!

They shook their heads recklessly, hoping only that Xu Fan, who was usually quite sensible, wouldn't fall for this trap!

Run! Run now! Then call for help!

"Fine, I'll play along with you today."

To their shock, Xu Fan had foolishly agreed.

Was this guy out of his mind! Was risking his own life for them worth it?

Bingdilian didn't give Xu Fan time to explain anything. Those ten Flying Blades in his grip flew out in an instant!

Like meteors chasing the moon! The Flying Blade pierced the air, aimed directly at Xu Fan's throat!

A strike meant to be fatal—that was the effect Bingdilian sought.

The previous blade, which Xu Fan had dodged, had already made it hard for him to save face.

Ranked among the top hundred assassins, his skill with the Flying Blade had terrified countless individuals, yet now, he had let a mere eighteen-year-old evade him? What a disgrace!

Therefore, only a fatal strike could restore his dignity.

As soon as the Flying Blade was released, Bingdilian stopped, a wickedly confident smile spreading across his lips, his eyes seemingly already envisioning another blossoming Blood Lotus Flower.

Swish!

In the blink of an eye, the Flying Blade reached Xu Fan, who, fuelled by his Inner Strength, countered with his bare hand against the blade!

Hand to blade tip, the outcome was bound to be a bloody mess!

Zhou Keren and Xia Xiaodie saw this and shut their eyes in horror.

They simply didn't have the courage to witness such an ending!

"..."

The sound of the Flying Blade tearing through the air finally ceased as if all was settled.

Zhou Keren and Xia Xiaodie, at this moment, felt in their hearts as if they were dead ashes, already harboring the intent to die.

Being captured up to this point, although the bald man with tattoos on his head hadn't laid a hand on them, it didn't mean he would continue that way.

Moreover, Xu Fan had died, what meaning was there for them to keep living?

"One..."

But suddenly, a familiar voice rang out.

This seemed to be Xu Fan's voice?

Both their eyebrows twitched slightly, and with surprise, they slowly opened their eyes.

The next instant, Xu Fan's figure entered their field of vision.

He was still standing, and there were no visible wounds or blood on his body.

The only different aspect was that he now held a Flying Blade in his hand!

"Hmm!"

The two of them sputtered excitedly! If they hadn't been captured right then, they would have longed to rush into Xu Fan's embrace!

This guy, was he trying to scare them to death!

"Hmph..."

The Blood Lotus Flower that should have bloomed at Xu Fan's throat hadn't appeared. Bingdilian snorted displeasedly, then the muscles in his arms bulged as he tightened his grip on the remaining nine Flying Blades.

This time, he didn't move as swiftly as before; his entire focus was intense, as if man and sword were one!

Xu Fan stood with his hands behind his back, his face tranquil as still water, lightly looking at Bingdilian.

Being battle-hardened, he knew very well that what he needed to do now was to remain as calm as still water.

To control action with stillness!

Finally! Bingdilian's second Flying Blade shot out!

A flash of cold light twinkled, and in less than a moment, it was already attacking in front of him!

Hmph...

Xu Fan's pupils contracted slightly as he met it with another palm.

Utilizing his Inner Strength to break through the edge of the Flying Blade, he slightly spread two fingers and firmly clamped this one blades.

"Two."

The casually uttered word informed everyone that this time, Bingdilian had missed again.

"Hmph!"

Without giving Xu Fan any time to rest, Bingdilian's third Flying Blade was already flying out!

Xu Fan's mouth curled into a smile, as if he had anticipated this exact attack and extended his hand without any difference from before, securely seizing the other's Flying Blade.

"Three."

Whoosh!

The moment Xu Fan spoke, Bingdilian's fourth Flying Blade was already approaching!

Yet Xu Fan remained composed, using the three Flying Blades in his hand to lightly deflect, and thus he knocked down Bingdilian's incoming Flying Blade.

"Four."

Whoosh!

"Five."

Whoosh!

"Six."

Unconsciously, Xu Fan was counting faster and faster, while in Bingdilian's palm, the silver lotus flower had soon only the last Flying Blade left...

At this moment, Bingdilian's breathing finally became somewhat labored, and his forehead even sprouted a layer of cold sweat!

Like the incomplete lotus in his hand, his momentum was already waning.

He was becoming flustered...

From being an assassin to a second-in-command of a faction, he had seen countless masters, but none had instilled in him such intense fear as the young man before him…

The doubting gaze of his subordinates, the exuberant cheers of the two captive women, the gradually amplifying fear in his heart...

Bingdilian's hand, tightly holding the last Flying Blade, couldn't stop trembling...
