Legendary Librarian System-Chapter 127: Assassination Attempt

Liu Wei continued to walk, yet strangely the direction he took was different, causing Cai Hui to be stunned.

Eventually, Liu Wei suddenly stopped and turned to Cai Hui, saying, "Go into that restaurant. You see that man drinking tea alone outside? Sit in front of him, just don’t say a word."

Cai Hui was frozen. She was completely confused and terrified.

Liu Wei said softly, "Go now."

Cai Hui was startled awake.

She glanced at the man drinking tea alone and discerned he was a martial artist.

Yet, he wore ordinary clothes.

He must not be an ordinary person.

Without hesitation, Cai Hui followed what Liu Wei had said and walked towards him.

However, after two steps, she turned around and said, "Please take care, Big Brother Liu Wei."

Liu Wei stared at her and smiled. "I will."

Cai Hui nodded and continued to walk towards the restaurant.

At the same time, Liu Wei turned towards an empty alley, strangely empty and dark enough, and entered inside.

...

Once he was in the middle of a narrow empty alley, he stopped and said, "Come out now. What is your intention?"

On the other end of the alley, individuals appeared one after another. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

In total, there were five of them, four were martial artists and one wore an alchemy robe and alchemy badge from the Alchemy Association.

He was leading the martial artists and was staring at him in rage.

He pointed towards him and his finger was trembling.

He said, "Y-You!!! You killed my son! I don’t care what will happen to me afterwards! Killing you will satisfy me!"

Liu Wei stared at him and said, "Son? Which of them?"

The alchemist was stunned.

He growled. "So, you really killed him, huh? I don’t know what method you used, but I will surely kill you."

Liu Wei glanced at the martial artists behind him and said, "Are you sure you will be the one to kill me?"

The alchemist ignored him and took out pills from his storage ring and threw one of them at Liu Wei.

Liu Wei stared at the pill flying towards him but he did not make a move.

He could not perceive the pill posing a harm towards him.

Furthermore, the way the pill was thrown, it seemed to not be directed at him but the ground in front of him.

Although he was able to incinerate the pill with the fire qi of Rhayven, he was strangely curious about the pill.

Once the pill broke into the ground, it suddenly released a grey fog, instantly swallowing him whole.

He confidently inhaled the fog and was certain it was not poisonous.

As he was wondering what the fog’s purpose was, he instantly realized the fog seemed to have cut off his senses.

He could not hear a sound at all.

He grabbed the hilt of Rhayven and was about to pull it when he sensed a fire suddenly manifested in front of him.

It devoured the grey fog, including him.

He frowned and let Rhayven collide with the fire, preventing any serious harm to him.

At the same time, he had leisure time to analyze the fire.

It was not fire qi. It seemed to be a natural fire, perhaps caused by a pill? An explosive pill? How interesting.

Once the fire dissipated, he saw the alchemist... alone.

The four alchemists had already scattered in different directions, throwing their weapons.

There was not a single close combat martial artist from them as they seemed to be proficient in long-range weapons.

They all wore masks, so Liu Wei knew they must be an assassin martial artist.

One of them threw shadow-needles in his east side direction, threw pins that reeked of poison in the opposite side, above him a pair of discs bolted towards him, and at his back was bone darts darting towards him.

Liu Wei was stunned.

His instinct screamed.

This is dangerous.

What he lacked the most was excellent vision to discover the exact position of the projectiles thrown towards him.

Furthermore, it appeared that they were ridiculously strong.

They were all in the Foundation Establishment Stage, and one of them was at the peak minor stage, but they were still ridiculously strong.

It appeared they have long planned how to deal with him without delay as they must have activated all their primary meridians.

Liu Wei knew that if he still held back, he might really die.

However, if he activated his primary meridians, his demonic qi would surely be caught.

There’s no need to think. I must survive first.

Without hesitation, he entered the Crimson Chain Drive.

In an instant, the Blood Qi surged in his body, granting him overwhelming strength and speed.

The world slowed down, he was able to clearly see the projectile now—all of them as he turned around in a flash.

Furthermore, he released his Sword Intent and Killing Intent to stop the enemies from performing further actions and executed the Crimson Severing Flow.

All the long-range weapons were instantly swallowed by his sword filled with demonic qi, leaving behind a flowing arc of crimson afterimage.

Liu Wei then executed the Thousand Veins Bloodlash, transforming the sword qi from his sword intent.

Then with a swing, the sword qi turned into hundreds of blood tendrils from his blood qi that pierced the enemies surrounding him.

They put quite a safe distance away from Liu Wei, yet Liu Wei was able to reach them with his blood sword technique.

To ensure their life was taken away, the blood tendrils drained the blood of the enemies, providing nourishment to Liu Wei’s body.

The blood tendrils soon vanished and he went back to normal again, staring at the stunned alchemist.

The alchemist was stunned not only from Liu Wei’s overwhelming Sword Intent and Killing Intent, but from the sudden release of his demonic aura.

Liu Wei was aware of it, and he would not be surprised if the Crimson Sun Guard watching him at a distance was stunned, too.

He sighed and instantly appeared in front of the stunned alchemist and beheaded him in one swift motion.
