Night Without End-Chapter 34 - 23: A Generous Gift_2

The few who had gone to assassinate Qin Ming relaxed a bit when they looked back and saw this scene.

Qin Ming zigzagged through the dense woods, speeding through the night along a path he had scouted in advance. He realized that this group was quite difficult to deal with.

Among those hunting him, two had undergone Second Rebirth, one of whom was very fast and was getting closer and closer to him.

Qin Ming's strength was certainly formidable, but he was not a true Second-time Rebirth, so he was somewhat lacking in speed.

The young man who had been speaking earlier was also a Second-time Rebirth, but since he had fired several cold shots, he was slightly behind.

When he rushed into an area dense with trees and obstructive branches, Qin Ming scanned carefully and chose the only unblocked area to charge through.

Obviously, the pursuers wouldn't swing their blades to chop down the obstructing branches; instead, they continued to chase him.

"Ah..."

Suddenly, the leading Second-time Rebirth screamed tragically, falling into the snow in pain, his face contorted.

His right foot was impaled by an Iron Spear hidden in the snow, the blood dripping down, the sharp spear tip soaked with blood, completely piercing through the foot's surface, looking quite frightening.

Qin Ming had made this worst-case preparation just in case, burying three Iron Spears in this area dense with obstructive branches; he did not expect they would actually be put to use.

The only clear path was naturally because he had broken off the obstructing branches nearby, clearing it himself. However, setting up Iron Spears in the snow to trap his foes also required some luck.

The man had inadvertently avoided two Iron Spears, stepping on the third one on his third strike. Running with all his might, his fate was naturally miserable; his entire right foot was ruined.

The others, upon witnessing this scene, had their pupils contract, feeling vicarious pain in their right feet, followed by a surge of fear.

The young man who had been speaking cursed through gritted teeth, "Don't run amok, follow his footsteps."

He too was ruthless, not caring about his injured companion, pursued with a Large Sword in hand, gradually closing the distance with his speed advantage.

He had already noticed that the opponent was clearly not as fast as him, and therefore judged that although the opponent was also a Second-time Rebirth, his strength must be weaker than theirs.

"After all, he's a Newcomer from some remote place without secret techniques like Meditation Technique, Will Power, etc. Even after the Second Rebirth, the limit won't be very high." This was his inner thought and the reason and confidence he had to continue the assassination.

Qin Ming knew that he would be caught sooner or later. Rather than let that happen, it was better to take the initiative and slow down to get rid of one person who posed a threat to him.

"You still running? Ungrateful wretch, I just want a few Blood Snakes, that's better than losing your life." The young man approached coldly.

As for another person from Chixia City and the two from Jinji Ridge, they had only undergone rebirth once and were not as fast as him; they were left behind and had not yet caught up.

Qin Ming did not reply, wielding the long-handled Wujin Hammer, he charged forward; he needed to conclude the battle quickly, as he was most wary of that young man dealing with the Blood Snake alone. Despite his physical ailment, he was still the most dangerous.

The snow in the forest burst open as Qin Ming struck with all his might, the first hit with the Wujin Hammer staggering the young man, who felt his sword-holding right hand go numb.

How could this youth, who appeared slower and seemed to have a weaker physique after his Second Rebirth, be so strong?

Qin Ming's spirit was highly focused as he went all out; the heavy Wujin Hammer, when swung, turned into interweaving streaks of black lightning in the darkness.

The young man was strong, obviously not an easy opponent, and much more formidable than Fu Entao. He quickly launched a counter-attack after an initial defeat.

However, to his alarm, he found that this youth from a remote area was not as unskilled as he imagined, clearly possessing an extremely fearsome Combat Skill. The heavy hammer was almost dancing with grace, its Hammer Technique was astonishing, each swing cutting through the night in an incredible manner, all efficient killing skills.

Then it struck him, the combat was being executed with a Blade Technique.

"This guy is really powerful, I need to undergo Second Rebirth as soon as possible!" Qin Ming thought, and then, the Wujin Hammer in his hand suddenly flew out of his grasp.

With a bang, the young man felt the world spinning, tears streaming down his face. In the instant following their weapon impact, Qin Ming's "slip" resulted in the heavy hammer smashing into his jaw, shattering the bone on impact.

Bearing the severe pain, he forced himself to stay conscious and swung his Large Sword forward, now he absolutely could not retreat and give the opponent a chance to pick up the Wujin Hammer again.

Clearly, he was dazed by the hammer strike, his consciousness no longer so sharp.

By the time he sensed something was wrong, it was too late. Qin Ming drew his long blade, deflecting his Large Sword, and with one slash, cut off the young man's sword-bearing right arm and kicked him away.

Qin Ming picked up the Wujin Hammer from the ground, said nothing, finished him with one strike to the head, took his weapons, and swiftly faced the other three pursuers.

...

The youth with a cyan-tinged complexion effortlessly slaughtered the Blood Snake; he wasn't overconfident, his strength was indeed domineering.

Liu Huai Shan, leading the surviving Mountain Patrol, made a swift counterattack, rushing back outside the valley. He estimated that the Blood Snake had expended a great deal of energy; even though it wouldn't freeze stiff in the snowy landscape, it might still move sluggishly.

So he had chased back, just in time to witness the youth killing the Blood Snake outside the valley.
