Chapter 1745: Strange Sniper Killing
He Changsheng gnashed his teeth, glaring in the direction of Jubao Pavilion's entrance.
"That beast actually dared to humiliate me like this! When he comes out, I'll dismember him into a thousand pieces!"
It was no wonder he was so enraged; as the Young Master of the He Family, he had always been the one to bully others, never the one to be bullied.
But today, in front of so many people, not only did he suffer such a great loss, but he also lost all his face.
The sycophantic advisor beside him said fawningly, "Young Master, if you ask me, killing that kid directly would be too easy. Let's first chop off his limbs and turn him into a human stick, then hang him on the city gate.
Let him hang there for three days and three nights, making his life worse than death. Let's see who dares to offend the Young Master's prestige in the future."
"You're right, let's do it!"
He Changsheng had never hated anyone so much in all his years, and he thought the advisor's idea was excellent.
But no sooner had he spoken than there was a loud bang, like a watermelon exploding nearby, followed by sticky liquid spraying all over his face, and the strong smell of blood assailed him.
"What happened?"
He Changsheng wiped his hand, and it was covered in a viscous, black and white liquid.
He turned his head and saw that the advisor, who had just been speaking so boastfully, had his head completely blown open, just like a smashed watermelon, with white brain matter and red blood splattered everywhere.
"This… what exactly is going on?"
He was instantly terrified, looking around in a panic.
"Protect the Young Master."
The leader of the Golden Core Peak Cultivators shouted loudly, and everyone immediately formed a circle, protecting He Changsheng in the center. Each of them drew their weapons, vigilantly checking their surroundings.
Seeing the protection of his many subordinates, He Changsheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief, while also looking around.
Unfortunately, they were disappointed; the surroundings were completely silent. Apart from the onlookers, there was no other movement.
"What's going on? What just happened?"
He Changsheng roared in anger. He felt both anger and fear in his heart. It was the advisor's head that had just exploded, but was it possible that his own head could also be blown off?
The unknown was the most terrifying, and the key was that they couldn't find where the enemy was.
"Which junior dares to come out and fight me?"
The leading Golden Core Stage Peak Cultivator was also full of indignation. He stood there and shouted loudly to the surroundings. His voice, amplified by True Qi, vibrated all around, traveling very far.
And just as everyone was guessing who had made the move, there was another muffled thud, followed by the head of that Golden Core Peak Cultivator exploding again. The scene was exactly the same as with the advisor just now, shattering like a watermelon.
"Uh…"
At this point, everyone was shocked. If the first death of the advisor was sudden and could be attributed to a sneak attack, then the current situation was completely different.
This Golden Core Stage Peak expert was completely on alert, yet his head was still blown off without any chance to retaliate. This was truly terrifying.
"Oh my god, what exactly is going on? Who did this?"
"This is too terrifying! They didn't even see the opponent's shadow. What kind of expert is this?"
"Who did this? Was it that kid from the auction? How did he do it?"
Now even the surrounding onlookers were terrified, and they all retreated, fearing they would be caught in the crossfire.
Some timid ones ran away completely, while the bolder ones stayed in hidden corners to continue watching.
He Changsheng and his subordinates all had pale faces. After all, this matter was too bizarre. Two people had died so far, yet they hadn't discovered who their opponent was, nor did they know how the opponent had done it.
The remaining Golden Core Stage Peak Cultivator stepped forward nervously and said, "Young Master, today's events are a bit strange. We should retreat quickly."
He was afraid now. In terms of cultivation, the one who just died was on par with him, and that person's head was directly blown off. In this situation, how could he not be afraid? So he immediately advised He Changsheng to retreat.
"Run… run… run quickly…"
He Changsheng was originally a dissolute Young Master, and at this moment, he was completely terrified by the scene before him. He only hoped to quickly escape back to the He Family and save his own life.
But no sooner had he given the order than one of his subordinates took two steps, and his head exploded with a bang.
"Uh…"
Now, these people were completely scared silly. The opponent clearly didn't intend to stop there; whoever ran faster would die faster.
As a result, everyone stopped, standing there stiffly, not daring to take another step.
He Changsheng was even more disheveled, directly covering his head with both hands and squatting on the ground, afraid that his own head would be the next to be blown off.
"Everyone, don't panic!"
At the critical moment, the remaining Golden Core Peak Cultivator was relatively calm. "Everyone listen to me, maintain your formation first.
I guess the opponent must have some kind of invisible Magic Treasure and is hiding nearby. Don't panic, we will definitely find a way."
Hearing him say this, the remaining Martial Artists also slowly calmed down a bit. In this situation, panic was definitely not the best solution.
Since they couldn't escape, they could only deal with it here.
Everyone readjusted their emotions and once again formed a circle, protecting He Changsheng in the center.
"I guess the person who made the move is definitely hidden in the dark. Everyone take out your hidden weapons and shoot them out together. I don't believe we can't force him out."
At the command of the Golden Core Peak Stage Cultivator, his subordinates quickly took out the hidden weapons they carried.
Flying knives, darts, sleeve arrows, and so on. For a moment, various hidden weapons shot out like raindrops in all directions, hoping to force the opponent to show themselves in this way.
According to their previous understanding, the opponent must have been hidden in the surroundings through some special method.
The result was disappointment. Everyone was busy for a long time, shooting out all the hidden weapons in their hands, but the surroundings remained completely silent, without the slightest movement.
"This…"
The Golden Core Peak Cultivator was a bit dumbfounded. If this method didn't work, he really couldn't think of any other tricks.
Just then, there was another bang, and his head instantly exploded.
This Golden Core Peak Cultivator was the leader of everyone, and his death was like the last straw, instantly crushing everyone's psychological defense.
If the enemy was visible and tangible, even if they were Nascent Soul Stage or Soul Transformation Stage experts, they wouldn't be so panicked.
But the opponent was killing people invisibly, making it impossible to guard against, and this completely ignited the deep-seated fear within people.
Not only them, but even the surrounding people were horrified. After all, the scene before them was too bizarre; a person's head just exploded out of nowhere. No one could accept that.
He Changsheng was completely terrified. A foul-smelling liquid flowed down his pant leg, and then he plopped to his knees, kowtowing to the night sky and begging for mercy.
"Great hero, sir, ancestor, I was wrong, I was really wrong, please just let me go…"
