Simultaneous time travel: But our system is out of sync!

Chapter 32 Monster

However, while the other ronin were shouting and cursing, the leader of the ronin noticed that something was wrong.

He saw the rogue in front of Lin Bei trembling.

The trembling didn't seem to be due to excitement, but rather to fear.

Seeing that the ronin attacking Lin Bei was still not moving, another ronin stepped out to rebuke him.

However, the leader of the ronin waved his hand behind him to stop the ronin behind him, and tentatively called out.

"Shimada-kun, are you alright?!"

Upon hearing the words of the leading ronin, Shimada's eyes welled up with tears.

His heart was screaming wildly.

Something's wrong!

Are you guys blind?!

The other side is a monster, and I'm about to die.

Why are you still barking like that?

Hurry up and come save me!

However, the immense fear made him tremble all over and his lips quiver.

The many words churning in my heart could only be squeezed out of my mouth in the end.

"save……"

But before he could finish his sentence, Lin Bei's two fingers pressed against his throat twitched slightly.

"Click—"

The sound of a ruptured throat was particularly clear in the quiet night.

The ronin who was shouting insults was stunned.

The leader of the ronin's face turned ugly.

They watched as Shimada, who had attacked Lin Bei, collapsed softly.

It twisted and convulsed on the muddy ground, emitting painful "hmph" sounds from its throat.

Finally, even the "heh heh" sound disappeared.

Only a corpse that has completely lost its life force.

Seeing Lin Bei standing there with a smile on his lips, the leader of the ronin's eyes turned cold.

He slowly drew his katana from its sheath.

"He killed Shimada with a single blow."

"Looks like I underestimated you."

"For Shimada-kun, for the honor of our lord."

"It seems I have no choice but to go all out to kill you."

After saying that, he threw away the scabbard in his hand, gripped the hilt tightly with both hands, pushed off with his feet, and charged towards Lin Bei like a gust of wind.

The other ronin were not to be outdone.

Holding the Bushido sword in his hand, he shouted and charged towards Lin Bei.

"Ah, that's more like it!"

"Sending them to their deaths one by one is so inefficient."

"It would be better if we all went to our deaths together, so as not to waste my precious time."

"After I finish dealing with things here, I need to hurry back."

"After all, there's delicious food and beautiful women waiting for me."

Hearing Lin Bei's contemptuous words, which treated them like dirt chickens and dogs, the ronin became even more furious.

The leader of the ronin's eyes flashed with a bloodthirsty light.

"Secret Technique: One Slash to Slay the God of Slaughter"

As the secret technique was activated, the leader of the ronin's muscles trembled instantly, his heart began to beat two or three times faster than usual, and his hot blood flowed faster, instantly boosting his strength and speed to a whole new level.

Seeing the lead ronin unleash his secret technique, the other ronin following behind became even more fanatical.

This is a secret technique, something that countless samurai and ronin have never even seen.

Only the leader of the ronin, who was highly regarded by his lord, was granted the secret technique.

Once the secret technique is used, no matter how strong the enemy is, they will eventually fall to the leader of the ronin's blade.

They were incredibly excited at that moment.

On the one hand, they were excited to witness the terror of the secret technique firsthand.

On the other hand, they were excited that if they could kill this person, their lord might be pleased and bestow the secret technique upon them.

However, just like the ronin who attacked Lin Bei first.

The excitement on their faces vanished in an instant, replaced by disbelief.

"Secret Technique: God-Slaying Slash Blocked!"

A dreamlike murmur escaped from the mouth of a ronin.

What did they see?!

They saw the lead ronin's sword strike, so fast it was almost invisible and powerful enough to cut down a tree, being lightly caught by a hand.

The owner of that hand was the young man they had just shouted about killing.

"A monster..."

The other ronin's eyes were wide open, his pupils dilated, and he didn't even notice that his katana had fallen from his hand.

But the most horrifying thing was facing Lin Bei directly as the leader of the ronin.

As the one who wielded the knife, he understood the terror of the moment better than anyone else.

He could see Lin Bei make a move, and the movements looked slow and weak.

He was still thinking to himself at the time.

Is it because Shimada-kun's sword got caught in the grip, or because his martial arts skills have become too rusty lately?

Just as he was thinking this, that seemingly soft and weak hand, as if it had foreseen the future, blocked his blade and firmly grasped it just as he was about to strike down, just like clamping Shimada's sword. No matter how hard he tried, it wouldn't budge.

So at that instant, the leader of the ronin felt his heart, which had been pounding rapidly due to the activation of his secret technique, stop.

He had only one thought in his mind.

The creature before me is not human, it is a monster!

A monster in human skin.

However, Lin Bei, feeling the power of the blade in his hand, expressed his approval of the leader of the ronin who swung the blade.

He immediately recognized the influence of breathing techniques in the [Secret Technique: God-Slaying Slash].

These are all methods that utilize enhanced physical functions to increase attack power in a short period of time.

The only difference is that the breathing technique is more sophisticated, more efficient, and lasts longer.

So when faced with the leader of the ronin's attack, he seemed to handle it with ease, but in reality, he was not careless at all.

Even a lion needs to go all out to catch a rabbit.

Even if the other party is neither a demon nor a practitioner of breathing techniques.

So, while it appears that Lin Bei is directly gripping the sharp knife with his hand, he is actually precisely controlling the muscles in his palm to firmly clamp the sides of the knife, so the sharp blade does not actually touch him.

Otherwise, even with Lin Bei's body, which had been strengthened by yang energy for a month, he would still inevitably suffer some injuries if he tried to withstand steel with his flesh and blood.

Even if he were to get injured as a result, it would only be a minor cut, at most the same level as when he accidentally cut his hand while sharpening a pencil as a child.

In human combat, the goal is often to maximize cost-effectiveness.

That means you die, and I remain unharmed.

Therefore, Lin Bei had no intention of letting the ronin, who were already terrified and at a loss, go.

His smiling face remained unchanged, and he gently uttered five words.

"Now it's my turn!"

Upon hearing these seemingly childish words, the leader of the ronin felt an icy chill of death instantly fill his entire body; no matter how fast his blood flowed, he felt no warmth at all.

So he shouted, "Run!"

Then, disregarding everything else, he abandoned the sword that the ronin considered his life, and also abandoned his so-called dignity and face.

He immediately released his grip on the knife, then rolled over like a lazy donkey, rolling four or five meters away on the muddy ground.

The other ronin lacked both the leader's keen intuition and his agile skills.

Upon hearing the leader's warning, before he could react, he felt a chill on his neck, his vision blurred, and before he was completely swallowed by darkness, he saw his own headless corpse.

In the eyes of the leader of the ronin, just as he was about to get up, he saw a blade of light brighter than moonlight flash by.

Then, at the same time, a thin line of blood, like a hair, appeared on the necks of all the other ronin except him.

Then three heads rolled off, and three jets of blood spurted from their necks, staining him and the surrounding mud crimson.

What... what kind of swordsmanship is this!

Boundless fear gripped his mind.

Even the leader of the ronin, who had experienced countless battles, couldn't help but scream loudly.

"What are you guys still looking at?"

"Hurry up and make your move!"
