Chapter 715: Passing The Border
Chapter 715: Passing The Border
Even though he seemed like a normal border general, he was actually one of the pillars of the country. After all, one needed to have the skills and abilities to protect the most important border.
No one knew when those guys beyond would actually go totally crazy one day, and dare to attack the border or cause trouble, so the guard had to be someone capable.
He was actually one of the rare high-level Great Boundary Ascension Realm Masters, or to be more exact he was a level 6 Great Boundary Ascension Realm Master.
No matter where he went he would be an existence that few people dared to offend or not take in regard, and even less so when he was doing his duty and protecting his own country.
He had already been notified about the problem that he was about to face, and he had also stayed on guard until now, but seeing the masked guy in front of him, he didn't feel that threatened.
After all, judging by the pressure and aura that Tianlong Yun was emitting he was nothing more than a weak Nascent Soul Realm expert.
In the old general's eyes, Tianlong Yun wasn't even worthy of carrying his shoes. Just his aura and pressure would be enough to not only stop him in his tracks but also deal with him cleanly.
Not to mention that this guy seemed to also be pulling the lady behind himself. In an already lost fight, he even had a burden to make his even weaker.
Thinking up to here, the old general didn't seem in the mood to fight with Tianlong Yun as he said in a loud voice,
"Whoever you are, just stop and surrender if you don't want to suffer a fate worse than death!
This is the end of the road for you, either stop and get arrested or suffer!
You choose!"
"I don't like people who threaten me!"
These were the only words that Tianlong Yun murmured as he reached the old general, and all of a sudden 'Life's Regret' appeared on his right hand as he made a swing towards the general.
There was no sound of an explosion or any sound of clashing whatsoever. It felt as if nothing had happened, just like throwing a small rock into the big ocean.
"Haahahahah~! You think that you can actually have a chance against me? You must be tired of living, let me fulfill your wish!"
The old general seemed to be extremely happy and pleased with himself, as in his head it had been so easy to deal with Tianlong Yun's attack that he didn't even feel it.
What he didn't realize though were the weird looks of the other officers, and soldiers around him. But he was too busy thinking highly of himself to actually notice them.
"I must say, old man, you are truly courageous and strong! Even when one of your arms was cut off you not only didn't scream in pain, but you also seem to not feel it at all.
Your great perseverance has made this little brother feel extremely ashamed today!"
"Huh!? What do you mean?"
It was only at that moment that the old general finally noticed that there was something wrong with the situation around him, and the faces of everyone else present.
They seemed to be surprised, shocked, and quite perplexed as they looked in his direction, or to be more exact towards his right hand.
Unable to control himself and his curiosity the old general followed their gaze, only to be met with something completely out of his expectations.
His right hand was gone!
It was cleanly cut from the elbow and down, as blood was actually waterfalling from the cut. He was unable to believe his eyes.
Until his gaze landed on his missing hand, he hadn't felt even the slightest pain or discomfort from his right hand.
He didn't even feel that there was something wrong with it yet looking at the blood flowing and the limb missing were enough to prove the fact.
An expert of his range and strength had been unable to actually feel as his right hand had been cut in a fight with someone he deemed as nothing more than an ant.
"You finally seem to realize old man! Now are you going to open the way for us to pass, or are you going to try and fight desperately like a lunatic?"
"You damn bastard~!"
At that moment the fight between the two of them ceased to be just the duty of the old general and turned into a full-fledged personal grievance.
"Oi, Oy~! Don't tell me that I bumped into another mentally retarded guy once again! Why don't you guys just learn?"
As Tianlong Yun seemed to be complaining about his poor luck, the old general had appeared in front of him, full of rage and anger, while making use of his full strength.
'Thunder Rage!'
In a matter of seconds, the sky got really dark, as clouds covered the area around Tianlong Yun, and the old general's left hand seemed to be overflowing with electricity, as it came for his head.
When it was only 10 centimeters from Tianlong Yun's head, the sky suddenly released a bellowing sound, and a bolt of lightning dashed towards Tianlong Yun.
"Wow~! Not bad old man, you seemed to have even understood a bit of lightning law! You are truly someone special!
Too bad that you are facing the wrong opponent today, and I never said that I would fight with you today!"
'Krrraaawwwwww~!'
Before the old general could understand what was going on, he felt his hand pass right through Tianlong Yun's body without stopping, until it was directed to the ground below.
'An illusion!'
By the time that he understood that the target he had just released his anger was nothing more than some sort of illusion, or afterimage, he heard Tianlong Yun's scream from behind,
"Hahahahah~! Old man do you think that I have time to waste playing war with you? My goal from the beginning has been to run away!
Let us hope we never see each other again!"
The old man was extremely angered by what just happened, as he wanted nothing else but to teach Tianlong Yun a lesson he would never forget.
Now that he had lost this good chance, he only had around 5 kilometers distance to catch up to him and kill him on foreign soil.
But he didn't feel like he had to worry much about it anyway. After all, he wasn't keeping guard on this border only by himself.
"Bastard, you dare mess with our general, you truly don't know how to spell the word death!"
There were a lot of soldiers and disciples that were accompanying and helping the general with this duty. Furthermore, the signal of distress had been sent to the other nearby posts.
Even though they had to be extremely careful as that might be a bait for the others to escape, right now Tianlong Yun's danger was much more important for them.
For that reason, the old man was actually able to control his anger and his emotions, as he heard a few of his people say those words and take action against Tianlong Yun.
"Hmph~! It's easy to enter, but you will never come out!"
That was what the old general thought until he saw that behind him lay a scene of death and despair. Just like a Grim Reaper Tianlong Yun was collecting heads left and right.
He seemed unstoppable!
Just like some kind of Asura getting high on the death he caused, he sweep the floor with those guys that were trying to block his path.
Yet even someone like him was unable to actually keep this up for long, at least that was the expression he wanted to leave to these people.
The old general's blood started boiling even more fiercely as Tianlong Yun could swear that he saw smoke coming out of his ears at some point.
Without delay, a spear appeared on the old general's left hand, and he jumped just like a hawk towards Tianlong Yun. Even if he didn't die from this strike, he would surely suffer a lot of repercussions.
Not even the Grand Marshall dared to take this hit head-on, in fear that he might suffer quite the damage.
"Monster I want you to die!"
"You aren't qualified!"
With that said, all of a sudden the terrorist grabbed his partner from the waist and then disappeared into thin air.
The next moment that one could see his figure, was already 1 km in the south. It was only at that moment that these guys finally were reminded how weird it was for Tianlong Yun to do something like that.
Still, now it wasn't the time to appreciate their enemy, as the old general immediately set off in suit to capture and kill the bastard that had almost angered him to death!
In order for their country to not suffer he had to make sure that Tianlong Yun died that day, even though he had no idea of the name or figure of the guy.
On the other hand, Tianlong Yun felt that his opponent was just too weak and incompetent. Well, setting aside his skills and abilities, that old man had lost clarity too son, and too quickly.
It was the same as fighting a grad school kid, he only needed to take away his lollipop, and the kid started fighting him in anger.
From the start he had truly wanted to pass, no that he had entered the next territory, even the old man following him had to be careful
