Chapter 1330: 1327
“Hurry and speak… Ah…”
“Pff…”
But at the moment Maruko Show’s eyes bulged in frenzy, a blade light devoid of any killing intent silently pierced through his heart from behind!
And finally dissipated into the air!
“What… Pff… What move is this?”
Clutching his bleeding chest, Maruko Show gasped for air, already knowing his life was near its end, he looked forward with anticipation!
Why was there no aura emanating from this strike?
Why didn’t he sense anything amiss?
His steps began to falter, nearly causing him to tumble to the ground!
“What?”
“Why?”
“What’s happening?”
“This…”
Vivian Li, Lucas Davis, and Li Daoyang all voiced their incredible shock after Maruko Show’s heart was pierced!
Nobody saw that strike coming!
Only Jessica Wright’s beautiful eyes sparkled with an unusual brilliance!
Indeed, that man had comprehended the move their master once spoke of!
“This move is called ‘Hidden’!”
When Oliver Walker’s eyes slowly opened, his previously calm body suddenly erupted with a majestic killing aura that spread outwards!
“Hidden?”
As life slowly drained from him, Maruko Show’s one knee slumped to the ground, “Hidden Sword Technique?”
“Hidden Blade?”
“Hidden Ultimate Technique?”
No wonder the strike gave no warning!
No wonder it pierced through his heart!
So it wasn’t that Oliver Walker was one move short, he had merely concealed it!
“Old fellow… why?”
“Why?”
Knowing he was approaching the end of his life, Maruko Show knelt on both knees, howling in unwillingness: “Why hide this move?”
His last words seemed to question Oliver Walker.
And also seemed to reproach Nameless for concealing this final technique!
His body began to convulse, and his complexion turned as pale as paper: “What exactly… is your relation… with Nameless?”
He…
Was unwilling!
To fall to this move!
“I have never associated with Elder Nameless, but he is a mighty one I admire!”
Oliver Walker replied indifferently, “I hid this move to teach you the last technique!”
“Elder Nameless hid it because you hid your identity!”
“Given his fondness for you, had you been honest at the last moment, he surely would have told you.”
“Otherwise, he wouldn’t have imparted ‘Rainbow Snowfall’ to you!”
“But you…”
“Ultimately, you disappointed him!”
Yes!
If Nameless did not care for Maruko Show, would he have let him take his life, knowing his Eastern Alliance identity?
Would he have imparted ‘Rainbow Snowfall’ without reservation?
But indeed, Maruko Show had disappointed Nameless!
“Gurgling…”
Maruko Show kept spitting blood, the vitality in his eyes fading away, he mustered all his strength and asked with twitching lips, “Who exactly is your master?”
He had studied sword techniques all his life!
And had not figured out how to conceal a strike, and if it was not an ultimate technique, how could he have been unaware of it?
Clearly, the ‘Hidden’ technique was known only to a select few top experts!
“My master is Heavenly Doctor’s Divine Hand!”
Oliver Walker did not conceal the truth, and this name was extremely unfamiliar to most people.
Perhaps aside from Jessica Wright, hardly anyone else had heard of him.
Although Vivian Li was strong, she was yet incapable of encountering the mysterious realms of the ancient martial arts world!
And as for Lucas Davis, even though he had entered, the Carter Company was merely a peripheral force in the Martial World.
What about Li Daoyang?
Even less likely to know!
However, when the name ‘Heavenly Doctor’s Divine Hand’ was uttered by Oliver Walker, a solemn respect was evident in Jessica Wright’s beautiful eyes!
“So it… it was… him…”
“I… I lost… It’s not… not unfair…”
Maruko Show said…
As he spoke, his face fell to the ground, his last breath lingering, refusing to be swallowed.
