Chapter 814 My own martial uncle is bullying someone who's thin-skinned again.
However, Li Ming only made a move this time; for the rest of the time, he simply stood with his arms crossed, watching the two fight.
After Su Mei made further progress in her sword heart, she also became more proficient in mastering the Taixu sword form.
Swifts, willows, falcons, and so on...
These moves become even more agile when executed with a two-handed sword.
Those ten assassins were completely powerless against Su Mei.
On the other hand, Cheng Ling Shuang's situation is probably due to the fact that she has switched to a weapon called the [Plasma Lance].
It was a weapon that resembled a heavy weapon, yet wasn't one, which allowed Cheng Ling Shuang to cleanly and efficiently eliminate the two assassins.
The subsequent resolution was not as quick, because the [Plasma Gun] had been used like a pendulum.
It could also break the forearm bones of those assassins, but the remaining two assassins, with their companions as cover, pounced directly on Cheng Ling Shuang.
The assassins in attack mode are different from those stupid assassins who have no autonomy whatsoever.
Its scales rippled and opened and closed like breathing, its claws began to swell, and even light blades extended from the tips of its claws.
"Yo, Wolverine!"
Li Ming smiled. This thing really looked like Wolverine, but this appearance should be a precursor to the Claw Death Soldier, or an ancient species.
Compared to the original world, the bodies of the assassins have hardened their skin, which is consistent with the use of suitable Honkai energy weapons.
The current assassins and Honkai Beasts tend to focus on enhancing their muscles, torso, and the inherent strengths of their creatures.
Although Cheng Ling Shuang looked disheveled and kept dodging, she was actually not seriously injured.
The seemingly fierce and sharp blade merely grazed past Cheng Ling Shuang's body.
The little girl behind him, however, kept exclaiming in surprise.
This gave Li Ming a headache, and then he found a new source of amusement.
The little girl held onto her leg with one hand, hiding half of her body behind her, only peeking out half of her head, looking just like Chopper.
Li Ming then turned around and shielded the little girl in front of him.
The little girl was so frightened that she covered her face with her hands and quickly squatted down.
The exclamations grew louder.
The little girl's exclamation was naturally heard by Su Mei and Cheng Ling Shuang, who saw the mischievous look on their martial uncle's face.
He immediately realized that his own martial uncle must have been taking advantage of the other person's shyness and embarrassment.
However, it is indeed dangerous now. The little girl will be less in danger if she is by her master's side. After all, she noticed the demise of the two assassins just now. As assassins of that level have no effect on her master.
On the contrary, it was the little girl who suddenly appeared that made the martial uncle a little flustered.
"【Sword Transformation - Moonlight】!"
The sword, "Peerless," held in both hands, flashed white light in the night. Its blade light seemed to carry an invincible momentum, directly crushing the three assassins in front of him.
Even those hard, sharp claws were nothing more than melting snow in the face of this ray of moonlight, vanishing in an instant.
Perhaps this sword strike wouldn't be enough to harm the dragon, but these assassins, born from the dragon's influence, would be utterly helpless against this moonlight sword strike.
According to Li Ming's estimation, at the very least, a Fire-Thunder God-level Honkai Beast would need to raise its shield head-on to block it. As for these assassins, they would be unstoppable if they encountered Su Mei's sword.
Despite the pitch-black night, the moon could be seen on the ground. At this moment, the little girl who had been hiding in front of Li Ming was no longer afraid. Instead, she stared intently at Su Mei, who was like a goddess of moonlight.
With each wave of her hands, the assassins would be reduced to pieces by Su Mei's hand.
As for Cheng Ling Shuang, well, by this time Cheng Ling Shuang had finally become familiar with her weapon and directly abandoned using striking methods to attack these assassins. Instead, she continuously activated the electric current strikes that came with the [Plasma Spear].
These electric currents not only restrained and restricted these assassins, but also gave Cheng Ling Shuang an opportunity to counterattack.
With two swings of the spearhead, it struck the two assassins directly in the head, knocking them to the ground. Then it struck their eyes. Since the spear was so dull that it didn't even have a sharp point for a straight thrust, it would create its own weakness.
When Su Mei's radiant moonlight attracted the attention of the assassins, Cheng Ling Shuang's technique subdued two of them. However, to Cheng Ling Shuang's surprise, when she suddenly thrust out, the strange spear suddenly developed a sharp point, and the spear tip formed by lightning blasted through the heads of the two assassins.
Clearly, the headless assassin was incapable of acting independently and collapsed to the ground.
Cheng Ling Shuang used the plasma spear in her hand to string the two assassins together, and the high-voltage current directly cooked the two assassins to prevent them from coming back to life. Then she looked at Su Mei.
Senior Sister Su's skills did not seem to be affected by the cold; on the contrary, her skills had improved even more. All ten assassins were cut down by a single moonlight strike.
After casually shaking off the remaining bloodstains on the sword, Su Mei used a cloth to wipe them away, restoring the bloodstains to their original state on the Xuanyuan Sword.
"Uncle-Master, everything is cleaned up."
"...Uncle-Master, these people who have fallen into demonic possession seem to have been residents of this island before."
Su Mei and Cheng Ling Shuang only did a quick inventory and found that these assassins didn't have anything of value on them. The reason they guessed that these people were originally residents was because these assassins were still wearing clothes that were almost tattered.
If you're a suicide squad like the Holy Fire Cult, then you should be covered in weapons, not just strips of cloth.
Therefore, these people could only be some of the island's native inhabitants.
Both of their gazes swept towards the little girl; clearly, only this little girl might know what was going on.
Li Ming still had a grin on his face. He squatted down, like a pervert, and patted the child's head. "Little girl, where are your family?"
Judging from the gold hairpin in the little girl's hair, her family must be quite wealthy, but her clothes were made of coarse linen, while the belt she wore was made of fine material.
The little girl just stared at Li Ming without saying a word, and quickly shook her head.
Su Mei picked up the conversation, pushing Li Ming aside, "Alright, Uncle-Master, this is really outrageous. You're scaring the child. Little girl, tell me, who else is on the island?"
"Is...no...Mother..."
The little girl clearly hadn't learned how to speak well yet, and her speech was still somewhat unclear. She fainted when she got too anxious to speak.
This left the three of them looking at each other in bewilderment. Li Ming could only tell Su Mei to carry the child on her back and head deeper into the area, since there seemed to be no more assassins around.
