The Legendary Man novel Chapter 566

Chapter 566 A Pyrrhic Victory

As the young man held his sword, a determined gaze appeared on his face. “I didn’t expect an expert like you to be present here. It seems that if I don’t pull out all the stops, I’ll have trouble leaving here alive, much less complete the mission.”

“Glad you realized that.” Jason’s less than three centimeters long operating knife appeared even more chilling under the sunlight. There was a mix of excitement and frenzy in his eyes as he stared at the young man.

It was as though he had just seen a naked woman, which made his opponent uncomfortable. He lifted his right hand, his operating knife appearing as though it were alive as it danced on his fingertips.

“Do you know? My family originally ran a private hospital. But because my father failed to save a disciple from a branch family of a respectable family, everyone in the hospital was killed. I survived because I was overseas at the time. After I joined Asura’s Office and interacted with a martial artist during a battle, my research into martial artists started. In fact, that still hasn’t stopped yet. However, martial artists of the Superior Realm or Grandmaster Realm are simply too difficult to find, and Hades disallowed me to experiment with members of Asura’s Office. Since you’ve delivered yourself to me today, don’t blame me for operating on you! Take this!”

After he concluded his sentence, Jason moved his right hand, transforming the sharp operating knife into a beam of light that flew toward the young man.

“Spirit Armor, activate!” the young man shouted. The spiritual energy around him swiftly materialized into an invisible armor, protecting him.

“Scattering Spirit, unleash!” He wielded a sword with his right hand while activating the technique with his left. In an instant, his power grew, and his cultivation level was forcefully raised to the middle phase of the Grandmaster Realm.

Jason’s fingers danced as three more operating knives slid out of his sleeves before they were shot toward his opponent’s surroundings like light beams. “As a doctor, I feel compelled to tell you that forcefully raising your cultivation level will only do more harm than good to you.”

“Shut your mouth and die!” the young man exclaimed as he launched himself toward Jason. The sword in his hand raised into the air before he attempted to split his opponent’s skull in half.

Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!

A series of metal clashing sounds were heard as four operating knives hit the same weak spot on the long sword.

Crack!

The weapon in the young man’s hand broke following the cracking sound.

The broken piece of the blade came down and flew toward the back of Jason’s shoulder. As for the part of the sword that was still in his opponent’s hand, it landed directly on his left shoulder.

Blood gushed out of his wound as he allowed his chest to be slashed. There was only a calm expression on his face. “It’s over.”

As he spoke, the four operating knives turned around, flew in the direction they came from, and stabbed into the young man’s neck and spine.

Resentment appeared in the young man’s eyes as he stared at the wound that went from Jason’s left shoulder to the right side of the abdomen.

Both of them knew that, despite the terrifying appearance of the injury, it was only a scratch because the blade was too short.

If the sword had been a few centimeters longer, Jason would have been bleeding out at that moment.

Concurrently, even though the young man was holding the hilt with both hands, a broken blade sprang out from the back of the hilt.

The sword was a trick weapon. If Jason had attempted to dodge the long sword by leaning to either side, the blade at the end of the hilt would have instantly cut off his neck.

However, it didn’t work out because he was one step slower than Jason.

The four operating knives that stabbed into the young man’s spine had accurately blocked his nerves and meridians.

His arms slumped down weakly, then he dropped to the ground with widened eyes. “You’re a madman…”

Unable to feel anything below his neck, the young man understood he wasn’t leaving alive.
