SWNOVELXO Chapter 64: Madness
A bit later, a man halted his movement and he looked towards the man who was walking beside him and the next moment his gaze went towards the man who was leading them. Seeing that his partner halted his movement, the man who was walking beside him also stopped and looked towards his partner with confusion on his face.
Seeing these two people stopping their movement, the man who was leading them also halted his movement and looked towards these two men, but before he asked the reason why they stopped following him, one of the men who was following behind looked at him with a furious gaze.
"You bastard! Where are you leading us? Are you sure that you know where his living quarters are, or are you just fooling us? If you try anything funny, I'll skin you to the bone." A masked man looked towards him as he said those words.
Hearing those words, the man was taken aback and he gulped, but the next moment he nodded his head and looked towards these two people with a smile.
"Yes, my lord, I am sure that this is the right way that will lead us to his quarters. I already inquired everything about this place. You don't have to worry about anything. I am not going to play any tricks on you, I swear, you can trust me," the man said, smiling towards these two men as he said those words.
Hearing those words from his mouth, they both looked at each other's faces, as one of the men felt that something was wrong there.
These guys were walking towards Yohan's living quarters as they wanted to assassinate him. The one who was leading these two men was the assassin of the Hundred Poison valley. These assassins were very famous for their poison.
They were trained assassins with the special ability to use poison as their weapons, and the poison they had was very potent and lethal. No one was able to survive after getting affected by this particular poison.
These two men were assigned to look after the assassin by lord Nicholas as he didn't want to leave any clue behind the assassination, but this assassin didn't know that he was going to die after finishing his job and that no one was going to blame the Nichole clan for their deeds.
He was unaware that lord Nicholas had already signed his death warrant as he wouldn't let him live if he were to somehow make it out alive from the Lin clan.
These two men exchanged glances as they heard the assassin speak.
"Okay, don't waste our time. Let's go before anyone sees us here.'' One of the men looked towards the assassin as he said those words.
The assassin nodded his head and started leading these two men towards Yohan's bedroom as he already knew where his bedroom was and he had also found out that the woman named Diya also lived with him. It was an easy task for them. However, these three were unaware about the current scenario and they didn't know that they were no longer safe here.
A few people were already watching over these guys from a safe distance. These people were walking from building to building with lightning speed as they looked towards these people, and an old man could be seen standing in the sky along with a man who was also standing beside the old man. They were both looking at these three people.
"Master, I don't understand, why did you let them enter the clan? These people are idiots, and they don't know their limits and the one who is leading them belongs to the Hundred Poison valley. I am sure that he was the guy who previously tried to assassinate young master Yohan." Arjun looked towards the old man as he said those words.
The old man Lin smiled as he looked towards Arjun.
"You have a lot to learn. If I wanted to kill them, why would I bother to allow them to roam freely inside the Lin clan and let them do as they want? I have some doubts that I want to confirm. I want to see whether Yohan is their primary target or not," the old man Lin exclaimed as he said those words.
Arjun smiled towards the old man Lin as he heard those words, and he nodded his head.
"Yes, master, now I understand. I have already instructed our men. They are all scattered inside the clan, and a few of them are looking over lady Diya's room and the Cultivation Hall where young master Yohan went." Arjun took a deep breath as he explained this to the old man Lin.
But the old man was in deep thought as he was thinking about something else. He remained silent after hearing Arjun's explanation.
A bit later, a man could be seen sitting inside the deserted valley. That valley was surrounded by the giant mountains and that man was sitting in a lotus position and gathering the Qi inside his body.
His upper body was naked and his muscles could be seen. He was also looking very calm and composed when he was gathering the Qi from his surroundings. It had been six days since Yohan had come to this place.
Ding!

[Congratulations, host! You have succeeded in breaking through in the seventh level of the Body Strengthening realm]
"Not enough," Yohan mumbled as he started gathering more Qi from his surroundings. It had been a day since he had started to gather the Qi from his surroundings, and he had been lucky enough to get a breakthrough in three minor realms, one after another, after gathering the Qi continuingly without taking any breaks, but he was not satisfied with his progress as he wanted to progress more.
He again started gathering more Qi from his surroundings and ignored the notification that was resounding in his head. The soul subspace was a boon for him.
A bit later, Yohan finally opened his eyes as he felt a power surge inside his body, and a moment later a notification resounded in his head.
[Congratulations, host! You have succeeded in breaking through in the eight level of the Body Strengthening realm]

A blue screen appeared in front of Yohan's eyes. Yohan took a deep breath as he looked towards his status window.
"I reached the eight level of the Body Strengthening realm, but my status barely increased apart from the strength. I never checked my strength before. This is the best place to test my overall strength," Yohan thought to himself and the next moment he approached the giant tree and took a deep breath.
"This is the best way to check my strength." He smiled and the next moment he tightened his fist, and he gathered all of his strength and put it in his right hand, and a moment later he finally hit that giant tree with all his might without thinking about the safety of his right hand.
But something unexpected happened the moment his punch landed on the tree.
*boom*
"What the fuck?!" Yohan shouted at the top of his lungs. The moment his punch landed on the tree, it got blasted away for more than five hundred meters in the blink of an eye and that tree took down everything in its path. A straight trail appeared in front of Yohan's eyes.
Yohan became shocked after seeing this. He never thought that he had that kind of strength in his body as he had never tried to test it, but this was beyond his imagination, something that he had never ever imagined he would achieve.
Yohan's gaze went towards his hand. He took a sigh as his hand was completely fine and his previous wound was already healed.
"Now it's time to check what I learned in the past few days inside the soul subspace," Yohan mumbled and the next moment a pitch-black sword appeared in his grasp.
[First level Thousand Steps sword technique]
Yohan mumbled and tightened his grip around the Asura. The sword in his hand reacted to his words and it started burning with dark fire. In a blink of an eye, Yohan connected more than thirty attacks in a single move. He was moving with lightning speed. Everything became slow as he performed those sword attacks.
