Chapter 370: The Wind Howls

Boom!

The arrow struck Adelaide's right leg, causing him to collapse to the ground!

"Aah!" Adelaide screamed in pain, then roared angrily: "Who dares ambush me? Come out!"

This guy was alert enough—even under ambush—to dodge in time! Otherwise, that arrow would've pierced his shinbone!

Then, from the darkness, a slender young man in a black kimono stepped forward slowly; he looked gaunt, but his eyes brimmed with sharpness and resolve.

This man was Kuchiki Senya.

Kuchiki Senya looked at Adelaide and sneered: "I told you—Daochuan Ryūwa's daughter is off-limits. You're asking for death."

"Baka!" Adelaide cursed, then rose and drew his longsword: "You dare ambush me? I'll show you what true agony feels like!"

With that, he leapt high, delivering a rapid succession of kicks!

At that moment, the wind howled!

Adelaide's low kick was vicious—but Kuchiki Senya merely shifted his step slightly to evade it, then thrust his left knee upward with brutal force into the man's abdomen!

It was a standard elbow strike!

If it landed, Adelaide's belly would explode open!

Unfortunately, although his speed was fast, Kuchiki Chiyoru was even faster than him!

Before Adelaide could react, Kuchiki Senya's knee slammed into his ribs!

The impact was crushing!

Crack! Crack!

Ribs shattered!

Adelaide screamed and flew backward several meters!

"You bastard!" Adelaide clutched his stomach, writhing on the ground, drenched in sweat!

He tried to struggle up, but his chest tightened violently, then he spat out a gush of blood!

"Daochuan Ryūwa and his sister are my prey. Anyone who dares stand in my way dies." Kuchiki Senya's voice was cold: "Including you."

"Damn you! You're challenging our dignity, challenging the entire Daochuan Society!" Adelaide lay on the ground, struggling to lift his head and glare at the man: "Your martial arts are fake! Your skills are nonsense! You're just flashy, empty moves—you're not even ninjas!"

"Heh. Do you have any idea what you are?" Kuchiki Senya shook his head, sneering coldly: "If you insist we're ninjas, then fine—call us ninjas. But you'll never understand: there are things in this world far beyond your imagination."

He paused, then said: "For instance, this."

Shhh!

His wrist snapped upward—a streak of dark light shot forth, piercing Adelaide's throat!

His head severed from his spine; the headless corpse crashed to the ground!

His expression froze, eyes wide open, as if even in death he couldn't comprehend what had happened!

Adelaide was dead. His two bodyguards wouldn't survive either.

"You Chinese pigs! I'll send all of you to hell!" Adelaide's bodyguards shouted, charging in with swords and spears.

They stared at the scene around them, stunned.

Because Adelaide had already become a headless corpse.

And Kuchiki Senya still stood with his hands behind his back.
