My Wife is Unbeatable in the Whole World, Touch Me If You Dare!-Chapter 124 - 95 Kill!

He took a breath and, looking at the number on the Law Code, Li Nuo’s face showed an expression of extreme agony.

"Name: Li Nuo."

"Lifespan: One day."

More than two hundred days of lifespan, exchanged for a moment’s double the strength of the Fourth Realm.

Seizing the moment while the assassin was unguarded, he struck a surprise attack that killed with a single blow.

The lifespan left on the Law Code was now only one day.

This day was probably protected by some automatic mechanism of the Law Code.

Otherwise, before he could counter-kill the assassin, he would have already perished from spontaneous death.

At that time, his situation left no room for prolonged thought.

Faced with a Martial Artist of the Fourth Realm, any hesitation of even one second would mean his head would fall to the ground.

Capturing a Martial Path expert of the Fourth Realm only added a hundred days to his lifespan.

A single use of his cultivation cost him more than two hundred days.

He always lived frugally, not willing to spend even a day’s lifespan, having declined Mumu’s numerous requests to do her makeup; with great difficulty, he had boosted his lifespan to over two hundred days...

Now all his hard work over the past month was lost in an instant, back to square one.

But he had no choice.

Either exchange or die.

He should be grateful that the Chu Country guard was a practicant of the Dual Cultivation Method of the Fourth Realm.

Both meridians having been cultivated to the Fourth Realm, the True Qi inside his body was double that of an ordinary person at the same level.

Had it not been an exceptional Fourth Realm Martial Artist, he might not have been able to retaliate with a fatal strike.

Perhaps that was the reason so much of his lifespan had been deducted.

It seemed that all was preordained in the dark.

Li Nuo looked at the Black-clothed man lying on the ground with a sense of irritation and gnashed his teeth, "What’s the point in all of this trouble for you?"

Cultivating to the Fourth Realm is no easy task, and who knows how much hardship and fatigue one has to endure, only to die in such a stifled manner, completely not worth it.

But the assassin, whose pupils were gradually dilating, could no longer hear his words.

Li Nuo tried to stand using the wall for support, but was overwhelmed by waves of dizziness.

Just before, he felt terrifyingly strong, as if he could have fought his wife for three hundred rounds.

But after that power faded, he felt a void in his body like never before.

It was as if even the power from the deepest parts of his body had been completely drained.

Ultimately, he could no longer hold on, the world spun around him, and he completely lost consciousness.

After an unknown amount of time, light footsteps echoed again in the alley.

A slender figure slowly walked in, first glanced at the Black-clothed man in the corner whose eyes hadn’t closed in death, and pulled at the corner of their mouth with disdain: "Heavenly Mountain Seven Killers? Such a small task and you couldn’t manage it, daring to claim you’re among the top ten assassins. In the end, someone else had to take action…"

Then, they turned their gaze to the young man who had fainted, and a trace of pity flashed across their face, murmuring, "Looking so handsome, it’s a pity to kill you…"

Although they said this, their long sword was already being drawn slowly from their waist.

Upon seeing this scene, the woman sitting on the wall leapt down and spoke indifferently, "You effeminate fool, try touching him and see what happens."

The slender figure stopped in their tracks as their sword hummed in their hand.

Those who dared to address him like that were all dead.

He glanced at the veiled woman, felt the undisguised fluctuations of True Qi emanating from her, and the humming of his sword gradually subsided.

He looked at Li Nuo lying on the ground, a look of regret on his face, leaped onto the wall, and in a blink of an eye, he was gone.

The woman didn’t pursue, instead she looked down at the fainted Li Nuo, then at the deceased Black-clothed assassin, and said in a low voice, "Song Jiaren, there is something wrong with your husband…"

She had intended to leave but halted after a few steps.

Eventually, she sighed in resignation, turned back, picked up Li Nuo, and slowly walked outside.

...

Song Residence.

A white-bearded elder removed his finger from Li Nuo’s wrist and, looking at Housekeeper Wu, asked with confusion, "Are you sure, your young master hasn’t practiced Martial Path?"

Housekeeper Wu replied irritably, "Are you a quack? Don’t you know how to diagnose? I’ve watched our young master grow up; would I not know if he’s practiced Martial Path?"

The elder scratched his head, bewildered, "That’s strange then. His body is severely overdrawn, like the result of excessive True Qi consumption, but there’s also no great harm. Just rest well, eat more nutritious food, and he should recover in ten days to half a month…"

At this moment, the young man lying on the bed slightly moved his eyelids.

When Li Nuo woke up, he saw a room full of people.

His wife, Mumu, Ning’er, Song Yu, and Housekeeper Wu, were all gathered around his bed.

Seeing him awake, the worry on Song Jiaren’s face lessened slightly.

Song Mu’er’s face still had tears on it as she happily held his hand, "Brother Li Nuo, you’re awake!"

Song Yu let out a long breath and said with hindsight fear, "Brother-in-law, you really scared me to death!"

Housekeeper Wu, looking concerned, asked, "Young master, how are you feeling? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?"

Seeing them, Li Nuo let out a breath of relief.

He had been saved.

Ignoring Housekeeper Wu’s question, Li Nuo struggled to sit up and asked, "What happened to those assassins?"

Housekeeper Wu replied, "Of the eight assassins, one is dead, and the other seven have fled. They were top-notch killers, and if they were determined to escape, we couldn’t stop them…"

He still felt a lingering fear and expressed his relief, "Who could have thought that the Heavenly Mountain Seven Killers actually had an eighth? Fortunately, that heroine happened to pass by and saved the young master justly. Otherwise, the young master’s chances would have been slim today, and I, as an Old Servant, would not be able to face the old master and the young madam…"

Li Nuo didn’t know anything about any heroine.

It seemed that some things had occurred after he had passed out.
