Chapter 715: Serious Statement of Responsibility

These dark hunters were being hunted. It was a one-sided slaughter. The air in the forest was thick with the pungent smell of blood, and bodies fell one after another.

Chu Feng moved like a bolt of lightning. Wherever he passed, the assassins were mowed down in swathes, like crops. No living soul survived the Cycle Dao Blade, and no body remained intact before the Lightning Fist.

Screams of agony rose one after another, echoing through the area. Chu Feng's killing methods were too terrifying; he simply swept through them.

At that moment, the Earth branch of the Heaven-Piercing Assassins suffered a devastating blow.

“Chu Feng… Devil Chu!” The dishevelled old man desperately pursued from behind, but he couldn't keep up with Chu Feng's speed, only catching glimpses of his afterimage. Chu Feng moved freely through the area, constantly sweeping and slaughtering everywhere.

Even these assassins, who had long operated in the shadows, felt a chill. They had never seen anyone so demonic. The blade light emanating from a dark red long saber was incomparably fierce, piercing the heavens and striking the earth; wherever it swept, bodies were inevitably cut in half and sent flying.

And the devil's fists were even more terrifying, brimming with powerful energy. With a single punch, even those so-called young elites, the cream of the crop who had advanced to the Luminance Realm, were shaken to the point of vomiting blood profusely, their arms broken. Their bodies then cracked, covered in bloodstains.

Under the Lightning Fist, another young expert was torn to pieces, their remains scattering in all directions, accompanied by a shower of blood.

The bright moon hung high, casting down silver light. The entire mountain range was bathed in a soft glow, as if draped in a thin mist. However, the pungent smell of blood was overwhelming, marring the serene and ethereal beauty of the scene.

“Chu Feng, you will pay a bloody price for this! Death will not be your end. You will sink into darkness, endure boundless pain, and struggle through endless torment!”

A middle-aged assassin cursed him, utterly despairing. When Chu Feng sliced off his arm with a saber, he tried to save himself by severing his own shoulder. But then Chu Feng's fist pierced his chest, and his body cracked like porcelain, on the verge of disintegrating.

Indeed, after his enraged roar, he ceased to exist with a soft thud!

Under the moonlight, silver waterfalls, green pines, and streams in the mountains had originally been harmonious, serene, beautiful, and imbued with a sacred aura. But now, everything had changed.

Even the assassins, who had long operated in the shadows, were terrified and trembled at the sight of Chu Feng's dominance. Like a great demon god, he was stained with their blood, constantly reaping lives, filling them with fear.

Who were the dark hunters, and who were the masters of assassination?!

Now, everything was reversed. They had just received orders and learned the latest situation: the very person they were meant to assassinate and decapitate had come killing on that very night. Sweeping through their lair and slaughtering them was simply unimaginable.

There were three elderly Gold-tier instructors in total. But as soon as they appeared, Chu Feng eliminated two of them. It was known that they were all close to the Golden Body realm!

As for the others, they were no match at all. Six of the middle-aged instructors had already died, nearly wiped out.

And as for the young elites, the disciples considered to be highly promising and talented, over sixty of them had died in such a short span. They were almost instantly slaughtered and brutally killed by Chu Feng upon encounter!

Chu Feng had now become a true demon god. His body was covered in crimson flecks, all enemy blood. Every strike he made took a life as he swept through this branch of the assassin organization.

“Ah…” Some young assassins, aged sixteen or seventeen, broke down. They had immense potential and astonishing talent; otherwise, they wouldn't have been sent to this awakening planet.

On this night, they saw Chu Feng, whose killing aura was overwhelming. They saw the coldness and ruthlessness in his eyes, and they witnessed his brutal methods.

At that moment, several youths threw down their weapons and turned to flee, howling as their beliefs shattered.

They had once prided themselves on being hunters, but today they had been reduced to livestock, slaughtered at will, utterly powerless to resist. This plunged several youths into despair.

The expressions of the others changed. From the start until now, even when outmatched by Chu Feng, these individuals had continued to lie in wait, seeking opportunities to assassinate. But now, some of them were seized by fear, and their reactions blatantly contradicted their usual training.

“Chu Feng, come and die!” The old Gold-tier instructor roared, his hair standing on end in fury. As an assassin, he should have remained hidden in the shadows, delivering a fatal blow to his enemy.

But he was now unable to remain calm. His grandson had died by Chu Feng's blade, and he had been pursuing from behind, but couldn't catch up to his speed.

“Those who kill will always be killed!” was Chu Feng's reply. Since these cold-blooded assassins had received orders to target him and his friends, there was nothing more to say; they had to be slaughtered and completely annihilated.

A blade light surged, like a bolt of thunder. Its sound was terrifying, its light blinding, as if it had split the firmament!

At this moment, Chu Feng charged toward the old man, killing his way through.

In the process, more people were killed. Some had their heads sent flying, others were split in two, falling to the ground with large splatters of blood, then melting away.

In fact, the number of Heaven-Piercing Assassins exceeded Chu Feng's expectations; it wasn't just seventy or eighty people. Another group had emerged from the underground palace, bringing the total to over 150 individuals.

The saber and a thin rapier struck at each other simultaneously as Chu Feng encountered the old man. Most of the nearby people had been killed, and he set his sights on this last, still-threatening Gold-tier instructor.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! The old man's attacks were cunning, and his sword energy surged. Like a venomous snake striking, it would deliver a fatal kiss at unexpected moments.

Furthermore, he constantly vanished, concealing himself in the void, and an endless array of assassination techniques emerged. He was an extremely formidable and troublesome opponent!

Undoubtedly, in the realm of assassination, this person was exceptionally experienced. He was an executioner who lived solely for killing!

If he were on a battlefield, amidst ten thousand troops, his performance might be average. But in a one-on-one combat situation like this, the energy he unleashed was dangerously terrifying.

Unfortunately, he encountered Chu Feng. Whether in solo combat or group battles, Chu Feng's current strength was astonishingly fearsome.

He sliced off the old man's thin rapier. Like a flood dragon, he soared into the air, unleashing dozens of consecutive slashes, forcing the old man to rapidly evade, disappearing into the void multiple times.

“Die!” However, accompanied by Chu Feng's final soft shout, after unleashing hundreds of slashes in one breath, blood oozed from the old man's brow, and cracks appeared. His body was covered in dense, spiderweb-like patterns of fine bloodlines.

Finally, blood seeped and spread from all the fine red lines. This time, the old man had been struck by the blade dozens of times, and his entire body suddenly disintegrated and fell.

After his soft shout, Chu Feng didn't even glance at him again. He simply turned and left, plunging into the crowd!

It was a night of bloodshed!

In this battle, all 150-plus hunters of the Heaven-Piercing Assassins fell dead. Half of them were utterly annihilated, dying under the Cycle Dao Blade, while the other half had severed limbs, bloody and mangled, lying dead on the ground, having been blasted apart by the Lightning Fist!

It should be noted that there were some formidable figures among them, including Gold-tier instructors and seed-level individuals. Yet, all of them were wiped out!

The Earth branch established by this dark organization was swiftly wiped out by Chu Feng in a remarkably short time!

This was primarily because of the domain he had set up; these people couldn't escape.

Not far away, the Silver-Winged Race trembled with fear. They were part of an auxiliary organization, not direct lineage members, and having witnessed the battle with their own eyes, a chill ran down their spines from head to toe.

Chu Feng, holding his saber, walked step by step under the moonlight. His hair dishevelled, his body drenched and stained with the blood of his enemies.

The Lightning Fist swept across the air, and he unleashed another massacre!

He had also set up a domain in this area, blocking any possibility of the Silver-Winged Race escaping. All of them were trapped in this mountain forest.

Ultimately, this group of Silver-Winged people, who had followed the Heaven-Piercing Assassins and provided cover for them, were also decapitated!

Stars twinkled in the sky, and the moon was bright. The mountain forest was deathly quiet; all the birds and beasts trembled, lying low, and even mosquitoes dared not buzz.

Chu Feng stood under a waterfall, washing his body. He changed into clean clothes, strapped his long saber to his back, and turned to leave.

His tens of thousands of miles long raid to destroy the Heaven-Piercing Assassins' Earth branch didn't take long. Finally, he piloted the Green Bamboo Skiff into the eastern night sky, heading straight for the sea.

When Chu Feng returned, the auction was still underway and had not yet concluded; it was reaching a crescendo. Some rare treasures, along with the Holy Sons and Holy Daughters, were being auctioned off intensely.

“Brother Chu, where did you go just now?” asked Yuan Shicheng, the Crown Prince of the Primordial Demonic Race. He looked at Chu Feng with a strange expression, for with his powerful divine senses, he was certain Chu Feng had left the ship earlier.

“My blood and qi felt sluggish, so I went to stretch my muscles and bones,” Chu Feng replied.

At this moment, the Black Ox, Yellow Ox, Old Donkey, and others saw Chu Feng. Seeing his calm return, they immediately understood that everything had gone smoothly and concluded.

All of them showed joy, completely relieved.

“Chu Feng, you owe us an explanation. Why did you ambush and rob us back at Kunlun Mountain?”

At this, Yuan Yuan demanded an explanation, though her large eyes held a hint of allure. Beside her stood the Vermilion Bird Fairy, her red battle attire flickering with shifting flames, glaring at Chu Feng.

Chu Feng stood on the deck, holding a wine glass, and gestured to them. Then, with a sincere attitude, he earnestly explained that he had mistaken them for others at the time, believing they were connected to the Deva Race. And finally, because he was unsure of their identities, he had only robbed them and not taken their lives.

Yuan Yuan eyed him askance, wondering how anyone could believe such nonsense. However, she didn't want to fall out with him; she had originally intended to win Chu Feng over. Now, she was simply using this as an opening for conversation.

The Primordial Demonic Race wanted to recruit Chu Feng!

The silver-haired loli, Ying Xiaoxiao, appeared and disappeared like a ghost, running over to expose him. She said, “Big liar! Why did you knock out my sister? Does she look like a Deva Race member too? Didn't you see our silver hair?!”

“I thought you were from the Xilin Race; that group has very varied hair colors!” Chu Feng replied, without blushing or his heart racing.

Ying Zhexian and Ying Wudi, who were approaching, were speechless upon hearing this. He really just spouted whatever came to his mind!

The auction continued, progressing into the late night as time passed. Two hours later, the Heaven-Piercing Assassins organization in the cosmos could no longer remain calm.

Because that very night, they had been mobilizing troops and deploying generals, dispatching their most experienced ace hunters to the Milky Way, to Earth, to kill Chu Feng!

However, when they tried to contact their Earth branch to get some information, there was no response; the place was eerily silent, with no one answering.

Next, they contacted their auxiliary members, but the Silver-Winged Race also gave no response.

The Earth branch was out of contact!

This was definitely a major incident; their hearts sank instantly. It was truly absurd and ridiculous that all the people sent to Earth had gone missing.

In the end, they could only contact interstellar explorers, spending a fortune to buy information from these organizations and have them investigate.

There were many interstellar explorer organizations, and naturally, some of their members were on Earth. These individuals occasionally had business dealings with the Heaven-Piercing Assassins, and at this moment, they directly took the assignment.

Because such a task was too easy; they just needed to go to the destination and take a look.

That very night, news that shocked the starry sky spread. It travelled through the star sea at an explosive speed, leaving many powerful lineages stunned and dumbfounded!

Interstellar explorers usually conducted expeditions and excavated treasures. They also helped people search for information, all of which was compensated, and there was not just one buyer.

They had no obligation to keep secrets.

When they arrived deep in Wangwu Mountain, they immediately smelled the pungent stench of blood. Then, they saw bodies strewn across the ground and many humanoid ashes. On the sleeves of the remaining battle attire, there were marks of the Heaven-Piercing Assassins. They realized this was the lair of the dark hunters, their Earth branch!

All of these people were dead!

When they relayed this information to the Heaven-Piercing Assassins, the high-ranking members of this colossal power in the darkness were enraged!

At the same time, other powerful lineages also received the news, causing a huge uproar.

“Heavens, who did this? The dark hunters were hunted down themselves, completely wiped out, not a single one escaped!”

A great shock wave spread through the starry sky as the news circulated.

“Didn't they just announce on the official platform that they were going to start hunting Chu Feng? And now… they were the ones who met with disaster first!”

“This… happened on Earth? Could it be…” Some people's eyes gleamed as they made astonishing connections.

Soon, at the East Sea auction, many bidders also received the news and were stunned. Many rose to their feet, then whispered to each other, discussing animatedly.

“Chu Feng, you didn't do this, did you?!” At this moment, even Ying Wudi looked at the 'Devil Chu' across from him with a startled expression.

Chu Feng swirled his red wine, then calmly walked onto the raised platform. He addressed everyone, saying, “I'm holding an impromptu press conference.”

Then, he stated briefly and seriously, “I take responsibility for this incident in Wangwu Mountain!”
