“Why did a Heaven Control expert suddenly appear?”

Chu Nan was shocked.

However, what surprised him even more was yet to come.

This Heaven Control expert had just broken through the atmosphere and actually landed in this direction. He instantly passed through the vast sky below the atmosphere and headed straight for the girl fighting the Blazing Flame Bird below with a shocking aura.

“Damn, no way?”

Chu Nan was shocked.

From the looks of it, this Heaven Control expert actually planned to attack the girl!

“What’s going on?”

Chu Nan was a little puzzled before countless thoughts quickly flashed through his mind.

With the girl’s strength, she could only barely gain the upper hand against an A-rank beast like the Blazing Flame Bird. Of course, it was impossible for her to be a match for a Heaven Control expert.

It was impossible for her to win a head-on battle, let alone now that she was in an intense battle with the Blazing Flame Bird. Moreover, she was about to reach her limit and was almost exhausted.

Under such circumstances, if she was suddenly ambushed by an unexpected Heaven Control expert, she might not even be able to block a single strike and would definitely die!

However… should he save her?

If he wanted to save her, he had to fight that Heaven Control expert head-on.

Could he block that Heaven Control expert?

Or could he… escape from the attack of a Heaven Control expert?

If he wanted to save her, he might lose his life.

Was it worth it for a girl who he had only known for ten days and could not even speak a word?

His parents and Xiaoxi were still waiting for him to return. If he died here…

…

The hesitation and struggle only lasted for a moment in Chu Nan’s mind before he threw it far away.

“Damn! How can there be so much to consider?! A despicable guy used a sneak attack to kill a girl in front of me. If I don’t even help, how can I be a martial artist?! What kind of person am I?!”

Chu Nan angrily cursed himself in his mind. His eyes instantly recovered their clarity and determination. His Internal Breath circulated and his figure moved. In the next moment, he appeared in the sky in front of him and threw a punch at the Heaven Control expert who was falling at high speed.

…

Looking at the girl who was fighting the Blazing Flame Bird below and did not know that she was about to die, the corners of Basler’s mouth could not help but curl into a proud smile.

He had painstakingly hidden his figure on another planet in this desolate star system for six days before finally waiting for this excellent opportunity to launch a surprise attack.

After working hard for so long, he finally saw the light of victory. How could he not be proud?

When he thought of the generous reward after succeeding, the corners of Basler’s mouth curled up even higher, and his smile deepened.

Basler was an initial-stage Heaven Control Realm Martial Artist and also an assassin.

As a powerful Heaven Control expert, he chose to become an assassin. This was very rare in the entire Milky Way.

However, it was also because it was rare that Basler’s reputation in this industry was extremely high. He could always receive some special targets to kill and obtain an extremely high reward.

However, the reward for this operation was much higher than any other operation he had done in the past, causing him to be unable to reject it at all. It even made him willing to take the risk to follow him all the way to this desolate star system. He was willing to lie low for six days and endure all kinds of unbearable pain before launching this last fatal strike.

“Heh, girl, don’t blame me for being ruthless. If you want to blame someone, blame the person who wants to kill you for giving too high a price.” Basler licked his lips and apologized in his mind, but the smile on his face became extremely happy and enjoyable.

The reason why he chose to become an assassin was not only for the generous reward but also because he liked to kill people, especially such a young girl.

If not for the fact that the reward this time was too tempting, and he could not allow himself to have the slightest possibility of failing, he would definitely capture this target girl and torture her in all kinds of ways, watching her slowly die in pain and despair.

This was what he loved to do the most. It was also one of his greatest pleasures after becoming an assassin.

“Poor girl, it’s your luck to die before you react. Therefore… go in peace.”

Basler licked his lips again. His Internal Breath circulated, and the spatial energy around him was naturally activated. His palm was ready to attack.

Since he had decided not to give this pitiful girl any chance to resist, he had to use his full strength in this strike and ensure that he could resolve the problem in one strike.

However, just as Basler’s Internal Breath had already circulated in his palm and the spatial energy had been condensed, and just as he was about to slap out and slap the girl and the Blazing Flame Bird to death, he suddenly felt an abnormal fluctuation in the space above his left. Then, his vision blurred, and a figure suddenly appeared in his path, blocking his path.

Basler’s heart skipped a beat.

This person appeared so suddenly. Before he appeared, he actually did not sense anything. Without any warning, it proved that this person’s strength was extraordinary and could actually hide from his senses.

When he thought of this, his caution as an assassin made him forcefully retract his thought of directly killing the girl. His Internal Breath circulated, and the spatial energy forced his body to stop in midair and focus on looking down.

With this glance, he was immediately shocked, then laughed.

The guy who suddenly appeared in front of him and blocked his way actually looked extremely young. He looked to be at most 20 years old.

No matter how talented such a young guy was, it was impossible for his strength to be strong.

When he recalled that he had actually panicked just now, Basler could not help but feel a little ashamed and angry.

He was a top assassin of the Milky Way who had experienced countless storms. It was really too embarrassing for him to panic because of such an unexpected situation.

However, he knew very well that the reason why he had panicked just now was entirely because the youth in front of him had actually completely hidden from his senses. Not only had he not discovered it when he was flying down from space, he had not even discovered it when the youth was so close. He only sensed it the moment before he flew in front of him.

Even if this youth was not strong, the cultivation method he grasped must be extremely special.

If he knew some killer techniques and knew how to hide, then a sneak attack at the critical moment might really cause him some trouble.

However, now that this guy had foolishly flown in front of him and assumed a posture of fighting head-on, he was really courting death.

Basler’s gaze passed Chu Nan and landed below. He discovered that the girl had just been sent flying by the Blazing Flame Bird’s wing and seemed to be unable to protect herself, so he was relieved.

Looking at the target girl’s situation, it was impossible for her to escape from this planet, so there was no need to worry.

Basler looked at Chu Nan again and chuckled.

“Kid, you want to protect your little lover? At the very least, you have to weigh your strength.”
