The Invincible Strongest Student

Chapter 785: Chapter 785: Narrow Escape from Death

Clang~Bang~

The sound of metal clashing resonated, followed by the car body trembling violently.

The Hidden Dragon Sword in the First Elder’s hand sliced through the bulletproof windshield as if it were tofu.

The bulletproof glass stood no chance against his sword’s glow. A heavy chop shattered the glass into a giant hole, and countless tiny cracks spread across it, as if a gentle breeze would turn it into countless shards.

The Hidden Dragon Sword’s tip slashed vertically toward Ruyan’s head. If this strike landed, Ruyan would be dead for sure.

At this moment, Lin Tian drew the Black Dragon Dagger from his waist and stabbed toward Ruyan’s head.

Clang~

The Hidden Dragon Sword struck the Black Dragon Dagger, emitting dazzling sparks.

”Hmm...”

Lin Tian let out a muffled groan, the force from the Black Dragon Dagger split the skin between his thumb and forefinger, and his entire arm tingled uncontrollably.

The blow from the First Elder had already been significantly weakened by the bulletproof glass, yet it still overwhelmed Lin Tian.

One dreads to imagine if it had landed directly, Ruyan’s head might have been smashed like a watermelon.

”Huh?”

The First Elder softly questioned, then looked at the black dagger in Lin Tian’s hand, his eyes immediately brightened, and he said with a smile, ”I like your dagger, give it to me!”

Lin Tian’s face darkened immediately. This is too domineering, isn’t it a blatant robbery?

Seeing Lin Tian’s gloomy expression, the First Elder laughed disdainfully, ”I didn’t expect someone so young to block my sword with just a dagger, very impressive.”

”...”

Lin Tian was truly at a loss for words at such a compliment.

He wasn’t wearing the mask of the Cannon King. It was hard enough to become somewhat familiar with the elders of Luoyan Dock, and if seen associating with the Xu Family, the Cannon King’s identity would be hard to use.

”Unfortunately, you must die today as well!” The First Elder said and struck down with another sword.

This strike came with a violent current, and vaguely, one could hear the friction of the sword edge with the air.

This seemingly calm sword stroke seemed irresistible, instilling a sense of dread and subconciously making one want to dodge.

Lin Tian suddenly felt his body tense again, with every hair standing on end. A surge of heat rushed from his Sea of Qi throughout his entire body, reaching every cell.

It was Lin Tian’s first encounter with such terror from an opponent, knowing his strength alone could not block it.

Clenching his jaw, he focused his Spiritual Qi into his right hand and struck out with another sword.

It was an ordinary sword strike, incomparable to the First Elder’s relentless power. Lin Tian’s strike resembled a mere seagull in a torrential rain.

Clang~

Finally, the Hidden Dragon Sword clashed with the Black Dragon Dagger again.

This time, the sparks seemed even more brilliant, and the force exceeded Lin Tian’s expectations.

Unlike before, this time Lin Tian wasn’t as fortunate. Although he barely managed to block it, the Spiritual Qi instantly dissipated from his arm, the pain in his hand was excruciating, and the Black Dragon Dagger flew from his grip. His entire arm went numb.

”The second sword. Heh, young man, I admire you, and somewhat regret it, but unfortunately, you belong to the Xu Family.”

With that, the First Elder raised the Hidden Dragon Sword, a slanting stroke leaving a streak of white light toward Ruyan’s long white neck.

A cold smile appeared beneath the First Elder’s mask. Kid, you can’t even hold the sword steady now; let’s see how you block this next strike.

Suddenly, the smile on the First Elder’s face froze, his deep pupils contracted for a moment, and he quickly retrieved the sword and jumped back.

He made this move because he saw the black gun in Lin Tian’s left hand! At such a close distance, even the First Elder couldn’t guarantee avoidance.

The only way to save his life was to retreat fully with the Hidden Dragon Sword, not wasting a second!

”Ha! You old coward, why are you scared?” Lin Tian grinned and laughed.

”Boy, don’t get cocky! Take this sword!”

As soon as he spoke, the First Elder spun like a top, creating a small whirlwind with wind and snow, exuding extraordinary momentum.

Lin Tian’s expression instantly became serious. Raising his gun, he shot three rounds without mercy.

The bullets were reloaded upon returning to the villa; he had two extra magazines with him.

The gun equipped with a silencer didn’t alert anyone else at Luoyan Dock.

All three shots were accurate. Unfortunately, no one knew what cultivation technique the First Elder used, but the whirlwind deflected all three bullets.

”Not good!”

Lin Tian suddenly realized something, his heart pounding. He quickly unbuckled the seatbelt, holstered the gun, picked up the fallen Black Dragon Dagger, and lunged forward, smashing through the front windshield.

At this moment, the First Elder shouted, spreading his feet apart and using his waist to stabilize himself. Using the inertia, he threw the Hidden Dragon Sword.

Even from a distance, Lin Tian felt an oppressive momentum from the sword, making it difficult to breathe.

This was the threat of death!

Without time to think, he leaped high.

At that exact moment, the Hidden Dragon Sword came flying, a fleeting shadow of black light with no presence at all.

Yet, its threat was lethal!

Lin Tian clearly sensed the Hidden Dragon Sword was only ten centimeters from his feet; had he jumped a second later, he might’ve lost a leg!

Bang!

A loud crash sounded behind him, and as Lin Tian landed and looked back, the driver’s seat was utterly destroyed, along with the backseat and rear bulletproof window, all shredded by the Hidden Dragon Sword and Sword Qi.

The car’s framework collapsed significantly. Meanwhile, the Hidden Dragon Sword was pinned to a wall a hundred meters away!

Seeing this, Lin Tian’s face turned paler, frantically checking on Ruyan. Fortunately, this woman with a big life, apart from having sofa debris in her hair and looking a bit disheveled, was unharmed otherwise.

Surviving this ordeal, Lin Tian began greedily gasping for air; it had been so dangerously intense!

Under the mask, the First Elder’s face darkened, and he pointed a wrinkled finger at Lin Tian, shouting, ”How did you dodge?!”
