How could Hu Yuan let him succeed? With a flash of his figure, he moved like a ghost, appearing directly in front of the man in black. The cold light of the longsword in his hand flashed like lightning across the night sky, carrying fierce sword qi that pierced straight through the man's chest! With a muffled sound, blood splattered everywhere, dotting Hu Yuan's face and clothes, yet he showed not a shred of fear.
The man in black widened his eyes, staring in disbelief at Hu Yuan, his gaze filled with despair and reluctance. Never in his wildest dreams had he imagined that he would be so easily slain by a single sword strike from Hu Yuan.
Hu Yuan gave a cold laugh, revealing a hint of disdain. With a wave of his left hand, a searing fireball materialized out of thin air, burning fiercely like flames from the underworld. The temperature of this fireball was so extreme that even the air seemed ready to ignite. It instantly enveloped the corpse of the man in black, blazing furiously. In the blink of an eye, the body was reduced to ashes, and even the talismans he had failed to deploy vanished into nothingness.
