A Pair of Eclipse Swords
Chapter : 231 – Non-Smooth Plan
Xian Fa dab Han Ji observed the commotion tensely from one of the roof tiles. The two watched everyone who went back and forth with a bucket of water to put out the stubborn warehouse fire.
The two of them had since observed as closely as possible, and neither the horned Dragon nor the prince's nose appeared. That meant that the prince did not take this matter seriously until he and his personal servants were unwilling to move.
"Good," said Xian Fa. "It's a good thing they didn't come here. Let's go to his place."
Han Ji nodded, scanned down once more to completely make sure things were going awry, then he followed Xian Fa away to where Hok Liu was supposed to be.
While on the other hand, Hok Liu who had understood the "sign" that Xian Fa had imposed earlier was a warehouse fire, then after seeing smoke billowing high in the distance, he immediately launched his action.
Hok Liu came out from behind the building where he had been hiding since, longing to go to the residence of the Horned Dragon. He did not want to risk jumping over trees or roofs because people like the Horned Dragon, had very sharp eyes to realize unnatural movements even in unexpected places.
If he continues to aspire like this, he can hide better in the shadows of trees, shrubs or buildings, other than in the open tile.
Up ahead there was already seen a complex of mansions that Hok Liu already knew who the inhabitants were. It was a place inhabited by the personal bodyguards of the emperor before him. It might even be, it was the lair of high-ranking warriors belonging to the Midnight Wolf who was disguised as the prince's personal bodyguard.
He looked through the back of the houses and peered through the windows. One by one he saw who the inhabitants were, and how shocked his heart was how inside it was if not empty, certainly inhabited by a young woman.
Hok Liu frowned and scratched his non-itchy head. He remembered that he had circled this area before and was sure that this is where the Horned Dragon resides. Or did he go to the fire?
While still busy in his thoughts, he suddenly heard an unnatural movement on it. Sontak Hok Liu looked up and saw the prowess of the shadow that was immediately hiding the moment he looked. Hok Liu became suspicious. Without making a sound, his body shot up the tile.
"Don't run!" he cried when the shadow was already visible in the distance, jumping on the roof of the roof tile building headed outside the residence complex of the city lord.
Without a second thought, Hok Liu mustered the science of sprinting and chasing. Secretly Hok Liu was amazed by the figure, as he was not running away from it, but was playing tricks on it. Because a few times his head turned, and when Hok Liu had already arrived close, he sped up his movements.
Hok Liu had already reached the level of a true swordsman so his running speed was even several times faster than that of a gazelle. But this shadow could still continue to play tricks on him in a way that if Hok Liu sped up his run, he also sped up his run. Or intentionally slow down to speed up again.
"Fuck, stop!!" Hok Liu was irritated at being constantly toyed with so he chose to use force. The place is now quite far from the host city and is in the forest near the rice fields. So far he has no more doubts.
His right hand sent out a long-range punch with an open finger. The wind snatched, letting out a loud rattling sound.
The man who was being chased stopped his steps and turned his body. Scooping something from the room of his robe and doing a deflecting motion.
"Guuss!!"
The wind created was much stronger until Hok Liu almost staggered. Two were surprised, no one suspected that could match the science of his Ocean Waves Scroll. Although he was not serious, but there should be rarely anyone who can withstand it.
Hok Liu knew a powerful person, he became wary. "You kind of purposely led me to this place. Who the hell areyou?"
There was a loud noise from the man. It was dark and the moon was still covered in clouds, so her face was completely invisible. Finally, his voice answered. "You think?"
Hok Liu gritted his teeth. "I don't think you're a man of good intentions, so I'm forced to take you down!"
Not stopping there, when the enemy managed to dodge and deflect the wind, Hok Liu played the science of Demon Snake with a confusing movement and his left hand moved to the hull.
"Duck!"
With his wrist the enemy managed to fend off, immediately followed by a counterattack. He made use of the movement of his wrist that had earlier deflected the toto to move his weapon, a rustling sound was clearly heard as the twisting wind grabbed Hok Liu's face.
"Ohhhh!!"
This Black Dragon Leader did not want to take any risks and he tilted his head while jumping backwards. At that time the wind felt harder and slowly the thick clouds that had closed the moon were swept away. With the help of the moonlight and the cyan star, Hok Liu was finally able to thicken his opponent.
"Horned Dragon!" he said fiercely and surprised. "It turns out you already know?!"
The Horned Dragon let out a faint laughter sound. "Hahaha, do you think I don't realize how much you've been circling the prince's residence since this afternoon? I knew there was something about you even when you just joined," he said. He then moved the pair of stolen fans. "Why do you know this fan? Oh, I'm telling you, this is the heirloom of the Silat World King that I managed to take from the head of the Black Dragon. It's a valuable item, you know?"
Hok Liu gritted his teeth. "That's my goal, to the pull!!"
While snapping, his hands snatched and a sharp wind split the night air towards the neck of the Horned Dragon. One attack aimed at once hit immediately kill. But of course the Horned Dragon will not be able to be subdued that easily. He dodged and attacked.
In the dimly lit forest, there was a great and desperate fight between two true warriors whose existence was sometimes still in doubt. But this is the reality, two high-level figures of the martial world compete against each other in order to fight over heirloom objects.
If there are people around them, obviously it is very dangerous because many stray or turn attacks that ravage the surrounding area. Not only one or two trees were uprooted, even after a quarter of an hour it was about five trees and three trees broke.
This place is far from the territory of the city lord residence complex, so it seems impossible that anyone will know at these times.
"Hahaha, I think your comrades will come to help," said the Horned Dragon who surprised Hok Liu. "Have they left you?"
"Shut your mouth!"
His right hand grabbed, forming the head of a snake. A rustling wind rang out as the hand pointed at the opponent's rib bone.
The Horned Dragon skipped the attack with its fan, Hok Liu's hand flipped but he still had the left hand to counterattack.
"Ah, come on, we better do this," said the Horned Dragon with a wide smile. "I can't let a spy live any longer. Hyaahhh!!"
The thunderous screams that made the tanh in the forest felt like an earthquake. Simultaneously, the tip of Hok Liu's eyes saw the shadow of a few people moving swiftly towards his place. One of them is the Black Swallow Bird.
"Damn!! Goddamnit!" Hok Liu cursed, but there was no other choice but to defend himself.
