Doomsday Roulette

"That's it." Jie Su said this as well.

His previously motionless hands pushed forward suddenly, causing the rampant energy beside him to freeze for a moment. Then, it all surged towards the armor piercer assassin who was still frantically attacking Jie Su.

The assassin instantly flew away like a kite that had its string cut. Jie Su retracted his hands, watching the assassin tumble through the air and crash into a nearby building. It was evident that she didn't fall to the ground, implying she wasn't dead. In fact, her injuries were likely not as severe as he had anticipated. After confirming this, his hands rose again, and his fingers began to flick lightly.

"If you can withstand these attacks, then congratulations, you can kill me." Jie Su's words were so indifferent that it sent a chill down people's spines. "If you can't, then it will be you who dies."

As he spoke, the Light Pattern Array above and below him began to twist and unravel, sending lines of light shooting rapidly toward the armor piercer.

Previously, Jie Su controlled beams of Light Slash with a focus on cleaving; now he was sending out lines of light with an emphasis on stabbing.

The armor piercer let out a scream as the bony spikes from her feet exploded one after another, meeting the incoming lines of light. With each collision, a bone spike would burst, but the corresponding line of light would also vanish.

In a short time, there was a continuous clash in the space between the two, with popping sounds echoing everywhere. However, the armor piercer's bone spikes were ultimately limited in number. Once all the spikes had burst, whether due to her injuries or some other reason, the remaining light spikes penetrated the female assassin's body with barely any obstruction.

A torrent of blood gushed from her body; after all, these light spikes disappeared upon hitting their target, leaving behind hundreds of wounds on her body, and blood would almost run dry in an instant.

Yet the armor piercer was laughing, with her grotesque face riddled with holes.

She opened her mouth but said nothing. The next moment, her body suddenly swelled, and then with a loud bang, she exploded into a mass of flesh and blood, charging at Jie Su enveloped in a wave of energy.

So that's why she was laughing, Jie Su thought bitterly to himself.

In truth, he wasn't particularly skilled at using the adaptable formation. His strength was inadequate for managing the array. If he hadn't encountered a situation where he had to fight for his life today, he wouldn't have revealed this top-secret technique that was a closely guarded secret among the Su Clan.

Unfortunately, the enormous energy required for the adaptable formation was beyond what his current body could handle. After exhausting his last bit of power, he was powerless to evade this secret technique of the assassin, which allowed her to attack once more even in her bloodied state.

Jie Su could see that this mass of flesh and blood was not just some ordinary flesh, but rather a fusion of the assassin's life energy and a portion of the energy from the light beams he had just released. In this situation, let alone his current state, even at full strength, it would be questionable whether he could withstand this blow.

He closed his eyes, suddenly overwhelmed with deep regret. There were still so many things he hadn't done. He hadn't witnessed his brother Pao Bai's wedding, hadn't seen Ye Zhongming grow up as he had hoped, and hadn't realized the dream of glorifying the Su Clan...

Before the blood and flesh energy could reach him, the stench of blood was already in the air. Jie Su waited for death, indifferent to it all. Suddenly, a force slammed into him, sending him flying to the side.

Jie Su was momentarily stunned before realizing that someone had thrown a punch at him with great force. But they didn't intend to kill him, as the punch landed on his upper arm. He understood that this person only wanted to push him away.

However, in a moment of urgency, controlling the strength was difficult. Too little power might not be sufficient, while too much might actually kill Jie Su, who was completely defenseless. As he fell to the ground, he realized that the bone in his arm had likely cracked.
