Assassination System-Chapter 180 Like a Pes

As soon as the fiery sword of the Asura made contact with Dan's head, it sliced him into two and smoothly dissected his body like cutting through butter. Witnessing Dan's horrifying death, Malachi's expression distorted into joy and gloating.

However, when his gaze swept over Natalie's figure. He saw a mocking smile lifted on her lips and her eyes radiated a light as if saying, "You are already dead..."

"W-what?" Malachi uttered a queer cry as a sense of imminent danger assaulted his back. The recovering Thunder Winged Tiger awakened from slumber and sent a ray of lightning towards his direction. Stanley and Finley turned pale, rotating their cultivation bases, a wall of fire manifested between them and the lightning bolt as a fierce explosion ensued.

BOOM!

The explosion sent dust particles flying towards the skies.

Malachi and the others hurriedly covered their noses and mouths, afraid that the clearly artificial smoke was made of poisonous ingredients. But when they saw that it didn't do anything other than reducing visibility. The three brothers clicked their tongues.

"Natalie, retreat! Hurry up!"

Dan's voice echoed at the southern side as lightning flashed before their eyes. Malachi lifted a venomous smile on his face, Stanley's expression distorted when he saw that they were covered in a cloud of flour. Turning towards Malachi, he hurriedly shouted in warning.

"Shit! Big Bro! Don't use your flame!"

His shout echoed out at the same moment as Malachi ignited his flame. In that instant, the flame from his palms accelerated through the cloud of flour, creating a lethal shockwave and a fierce explosion which blasted everything away, including the Asura avatar and the Thunder Winged Tiger.

The explosion hurled tonnes of dust into the air as a miserable shriek echoed out from the Tiger's throat, smiling to himself, Dan calmly retreated towards the carriage.

If there was something proper that he learned from the previous owner of this body apart from techniques on pleasing women, it would be the existence of dust explosions. As one of the clans that controlled a part of the City of Cloud, the Longinus Family possessed numerous factories and flour mills.

Many of their flour mills were destroyed, this way and his father often lectured him about it when he understood that the previous Dan didn't have any interest regarding cultivation.

Of course, he mixed some combustible ingredients with the flour to increase its potency.

Such knowledge about the mundane world actually became useful at this crucial moment, Dan couldn't help but lift a small smile as he turned towards the astonished Natalie. The shockwave generated by the attack wasn't strong, but the sheer speed of its generation completely mystified her.

Though she could do the same, she wasn't confident that she could do it at that speed as she shot Dan a strange look as the latter lifted a cheeky smile.

Staring ahead, though he couldn't visually confirm his enemies' status, the system gave him necessary information as he said, "I'll go and weaken them further, only when I say the signal will you guys come out and do your thing..."

Dan took his two daggers and assumed an offensive stance, Natalie hesitated for a moment before replying, "I will go with you too!"

"No, you stay here and protect Grace from any attack, it's fine, just trust me..." Dan turned his back towards her and dashed towards the direction of the three brothers.

All three of them had health points below the thirty-percent range and their Qi Reserves also looked identical at the twenty-percent range. Smiling to himself, Dan kept his body low and set his eyes on the most dangerous target, Malachi.

[Move three paces to the right and roll forward]

The system instructed and Dan hurriedly converted the instructions into actions. A fierce explosion resonated and a patch of charred earth could be seen at his initial location. Directing his gaze forward, he saw that the attack originated from the Thunder Winged Tiger.

Clicking his tongue, Dan crouched and kept his pursuit.

"Careful!" Malachi warned. The sharpened senses of the three brothers were one of the reasons why they could last this far in such a line of job, and all of them trusted their intuition as they threw a ball of fire towards Dan's direction.

The heatwave struck Dan's face and with a mere sidestep, he dodged the attack.

[Incoming attack at ten o'clock and two o'clock, dodge by leaping towards the skies.]

Dan clicked his tongue before bending his knees and propelling himself in the air. However, when he did such actions, he inadvertently broke out from the smoke that encompassed the area, effectively revealing his position.

"So that's where you are, fucking brat!" Malachi venomously spat as an arrow made of fire flew towards Dan's figure. Stanley and Finley sneered, while in mid-air, one couldn't possibly dodge such a high-speed attack.

Puchi~

The sound of penetrated flesh echoed throughout the battlefield and Dan's body lifelessly fell on the ground. The three brothers revealed sneering smiles, but Malachi's expression changed,

"He's not dead, yet! He's somewhere around us!"

Stanley and Finley immediately turned wary and Dan who stood before them while in Stealth clicked his tongue, "Damn, these bastards are smarter than I thought..."

"We can't detect him, Big Bro!"

"Don't worry about that, since he's somewhere around us, we could just burn everything around us and smoke him out!"

"That's a good idea, Finley!"

The three brothers nodded their heads and simultaneously sent a volley of flames in the area around them, turning the greeneries into a fiery hell.

"Idiots, are they really thinking that I'm their only enemy?" Dan sneered in his heart as an enraged roar pierced through the air, the Thunder Winged Tiger's eyes flashed in a dangerous light as it madly ran towards the three brother's direction.

Though it could understand the reason why the three brother's wanted to fight it, it couldn't comprehend why the three would go so far as to burn its territory down. Fueled by rage and hatred, the Tiger abandoned all defenses and went for extreme offense.

"Shit, the Tiger is coming after us, Big Bro!"

"Goddamned it, don't focus that kid for now! Prepare for the Tiger's attack!"

The Thunder Winged Tiger's threat surpassed Dan's threat as the three brothers accordingly changed their focus, turning towards the Thunder Winged Tiger, the three brothers madly rotated their cultivation bases in an effort to form the Fiery Asura once again.

However, at the critical moment of their summoning, Dan would precisely interrupt their channeling process, causing them to spat mouthfuls of blood as a backlash. The Thunder Winged Tiger recognized Dan's presence as an ally and even assisted him by creating an opening that Dan could exploit.

Both beast and man worked together and caused severe damages to the three brothers. Malachi's expression twisted, his bedraggled appearance looked miserable as he shouted,

"YOU FUCKING BASTARD, IF YOU'RE A MAN, THEN STOP HIDING AND FACE US IN A FAIR BATTLE!"

Covered with Stealth, Dan shrugged and replied under his breath, "Fair battle? Why should I do that, I'm an Assassin..."

He shook his head and continued his seamless teamwork with the Thunder Winged Tiger as the three brothers continuously spat mouthfuls of blood in indignance and hatred, their injuries worsening every minute and soon, it was time for the two ladies to take their spotlights.
