Chapter 565 Plot Twist

Their eyes nearly bulged out of their heads when they saw the man making his way to Alex with the car in hand.

How is this person so strong? He lifted the car without even breaking a sweat! Is he Hercules?

"Watch out!" Elsa shrieked when the man hurled the car toward Alex like it weighed nothing.

Despite her panicked scream, Alex did not stir. His eyes remained shut as he continued his breathing

exercises.

Bang!

In the blink of an eye, the area where Alex was once seated became a gaping pit. Upon impact, the car had disintegrated into a pile of broken metal and glass.

The crowd covered their mouths in horror.

Has he been crushed into a pulp?

The tragic sight caused Elsa's heart to ache. Although she wanted to rush over, the sight of the assassin lumbering toward the wreckage caused her to halt.

Even though Elsa was a police officer, she did not have the guts to move. She was afraid that she might incur the man's wrath.

"I know you aren't dead yet. Nevertheless, the impact must have left you on death's door," the man called out as he rummaged through the car wreck.

Suddenly, he felt the hairs on the back of his neck stand up. Without hesitation, he darted to the side.

Despite his fast reflexes, the man was a fraction too late. A dark shadow emerged from the wreckage and lunged toward him.

Due to its startling speed, the crowd only caught blurry glimpses of the moving shadow. They could not discern its features clearly.

A loud bang echoed in the air when the shadow slammed a wrench on the crown of the man's head.

Rivulets of blood began to stream down the man's face as the wrench was dented upon impact.

The sudden blow caught the assassin by surprise and left him disorientated. Though he tried to stumble backward, the shadow offered him no mercy. Instead, it continued to pummel the man with the dented wrench. The repeated bangs resonated in the air. The sounds were so eerie that the onlookers found their skins prickling with discomfort.

Finally, they caught a good look at the shadow's face.

Isn't he the man who was hit with the car? Oh my God, how is he still alive? Wasn't he buried under the car?

In truth, the car never hit Alex.

Before it could reach him, he took a page out of Lexa's book and activated one of Lexa's skills.

This mysterious skill was part of the ancient Light Moves. It was an advanced technique that required

intense studying and repeated practice. If deployed successfully, it would morph the user's body into a dark shadow.

Right from the very start, Alex realized that his foe was slightly stronger than him.

Hence, he suffered grave injuries in this battle.

Nevertheless, he did not use his Light Move technique because Alex wanted to wait for the right opportunity before he unleashed it against his assassin.

During their fight, Alex struggled to incapacitate his opponent. Left with no choice, Alex knew that he had to paralyze the assassin and finish him off with a final killing blow. In order to do that, both sides were forced to sustain life-threatening injuries.

Hence, Alex endured the man's deadly punch without activating his skill.

Even when the man was in a weakened state, Alex showed no mercy. As the assassin collapsed to his knees, Alex slammed the wrench on the man's energy field, shattering it and rendering his martial arts useless.

Although the man was in a daze, the stabbing pain from having his energy field shattered roused him to his senses.

He fell backward and stared at Alex in disbelief. "H-How did you do that?" he croaked weakly.
