The hall fell into dead silence, followed by a sudden, violent commotion.
All eyes simultaneously turned to Chen Heihu, his face flushed.
Didn’t he just confidently claim that Lin Fan was already dead? But the man himself had just walked in, completely unhard.
"Tiger, are you trying to be funny?" Seeing this, Mr. Yuan Sr.’s brow relaxed, and he secretly sighed in relief.
Mrs. Xue and the others also appeared reassured, visibly less tense.
"Lin Fan, you... you..." Yuan Youwei’s beautiful eyes reddened as she quickly stepped forward, gazing deeply into Lin Fan’s face.
"Don’t worry, they’re just rabble." Lin Fan nodded, taking the girl’s delicate, jade-like hand and speaking softly.
"Mm, I believe you. I’ve always believed you." Yuan Youwei’s lovely face blushed as a sweet smile graced her lips, and she squeezed his fingers tightly in return.
"Impossible! This... this is absolutely impossible!"
The next mont, Chen Heihu’s eyes glazed over as he let out a heart-wrenching roar of frustration. His face twisted into a hideous expression, and his body trembled uncontrollably.
Why? Why couldn’t even a peerless master like Master Feng deal with Lin Fan?
Damn it, is avenging Chen Biao really this hard?!
"Mr. Lin, I presu? Your reputation certainly precedes you." Before Chen Heihu could speak again, Iguchi Watanabe’s pupils contracted. A broad smile spread across his face as he nodded at Lin Fan. "There’s no real feud between us. Why not bury the hatchet?"
He stepped forward, opening his arms as if to embrace the whole world. "The Iguchi Pharmaceutical Group can offer you everything you desire... money, power, beautiful won, we have it all!"
Glancing sideways at Yuan Youwei, Iguchi Watanabe’s smile beca even more amiable. "I swear on the honor of the Iguchi family that whatever the Yuan family can give you, I can give you ten tis more!"
HISS!
At his words, everyone’s expression changed dramatically.
Indeed, Lin Fan had repeatedly aided the Yuan family, but it was a mutually beneficial arrangent with little real affection involved. The only thing that could possibly sway him was Yuan Youwei’s own display of affection. If Iguchi Watanabe managed to buy Lin Fan over on the spot, the Yuan family would have no way out tonight.
Seeing Lin Fan frown slightly and remain silent, Iguchi Watanabe’s eyes lit up. He pressed on with a broad smile, "Mr. Lin, if you’re still not satisfied, I can have Chen Heihu step down and answer only to you from now on."
At this, Mrs. Xue and the others felt their hearts leap into their throats. Even Mr. Yuan Sr. couldn’t remain calm, his eyes filled with alarm and uncertainty.
"Mr. Iguchi, you mustn’t!" Before Lin Fan could respond, Chen Heihu’s face changed dramatically, a look of desperation in his eyes. He hastily forced a smile that looked worse than crying and turned to plead with Iguchi Watanabe. "My son died at his hands! He tore my Black Tiger Hall to pieces, destroying seven years of my hard work!"
Iguchi Watanabe’s smile vanished. "Chen Heihu, don’t forget your place," he rebuked coldly. "You’re just a dog that the Iguchi Pharmaceutical Group keeps in Haicheng. For the sake of our enterprise, isn’t it right for you to make the necessary sacrifice?"
Chen Heihu’s face went from pale to red as he trembled, his fists clenched tight.
So that’s all I am in his eyes? Just a dog to be sacrificed at any mont?
"Chen Black Dog, did you hear that?" Just then, after a long silence, Lin Fan finally spoke. His lips curled in a mocking sneer, his eyes filled with disgust and contempt. "What good ever cos from licking the boots of the people of Sakura Country?"
"You... shut your damn mouth!" Chen Heihu finally snapped, his eyes red as he roared. "I’d rather be a dog for the people of Sakura Country than a dead thing like you!"
Ignoring Chen Heihu, Lin Fan turned his gaze to Iguchi Watanabe. "And you, talking about giving more? You can abandon this dog so easily tonight. What’s to stop you from doing the sa to in the future?"
He shook his head, his gaze suddenly turning hard. "I can take what I want. I don’t need your charity. You dared to barge into Haicheng? Fine. None of you are leaving tonight."
His voice, filled with a deadly chill, echoed through the hall.
The Yuan family mbers were all invigorated. Yuan Youwei’s eyes grew moist, her heart deeply touched.
He did it for . He refused the Iguchi Pharmaceutical Group’s offer for my sake. That jerk... he may be unromantic, but his heart is true.
"Fine!" Iguchi Watanabe’s chubby face turned completely grim, as ugly as if he had swallowed a dead fly. "Since you’re just as stubborn as President Yuan, there’s nothing more to say."
He shed his hypocritical mask completely and waved his hand fiercely. "Kill them! Spare no one!"
Two Sakura Country Warriors behind him roared in response. They drew their long katanas in unison, the blades shimring like autumn water. A brutal light glead from their eyes beneath their black masks. The Black Tiger Hall elites surrounding them also drew their pistols. The tallic clatter of slides being racked echoed as they aid at Lin Fan and his allies.
"Lin Fan, you survived Master Feng’s attack once, yet you didn’t learn to cherish your life," Iguchi Watanabe sneered, lifting his fat chin, his eyes filled with arrogance. "How dare you show up and ruin my plans? Very well, then die with the Yuan family!"
As his words fell, the two Sakura Country Warriors charged toward Lin Fan like black shadows, katanas raised high. The surrounding Black Tiger Hall elites pulled their triggers without hesitation.
CLICK! CLICK!
In that instant, Lin Fan’s eyes flashed with a brilliant light. His figure flickered and vanished from the spot like a wisp of smoke.
No one could follow his movents. Amid the deafening roar of gunfire, two dark figures twitched and scread violently as their bodies absorbed every single bullet.
"With this little skill, you dare to act so arrogantly in my Xia Country?"
THUD! THUD!
The gunfire gradually ceased as the Black Tiger Hall elites emptied their magazines. Through the drifting smoke, Lin Fan casually dropped two bodies riddled with holes like beehives, his cold gaze fixed on Iguchi Watanabe.
He could have killed the gunn in an instant, but he had to block the bullets first to protect the Yuan family from harm.
GULP. GULP.
The hall fell into a dead silence once more, broken only by the sound of people frantically swallowing. The Yuan family mbers were completely stunned. The Black Tiger Hall elites, still clutching their pistols, swallowed hard and unconsciously began to back away.
Is he even human? Dozens of guns, and not one of them could even touch a hair on his head!
Cold sweat dripped from Chen Heihu’s forehead as a chill ran down his spine. He had known Lin Fan was formidable, but only after seeing it with his own eyes did he realize what a monster Lin Fan truly was.
No wonder those hundreds of elites in the Black Tiger Building couldn’t handle him. It looks like tonight, only Master Feng’s arrival can guarantee we take down this God of Killing!
"Guards! Guards, get in here!"
Just then, Iguchi Watanabe, his pupils trembling violently, finally managed to close his gaping mouth. His plump body shuddered, his small eyes now filled with anxiety and stripped of all their previous arrogance. He backed away toward the hall’s entrance, his voice raspy and trembling as he yelled.
One second, two, three... After five full seconds, there was still no movent from outside, no response at all.
A drop of cold sweat traced a path down his pale cheek. Iguchi Watanabe’s heart sank, his eyes darting around in alarm and disbelief. He had secretly ordered over a hundred elite Sakura Country Warriors to break into smaller groups and converge on Haicheng for this operation. They should have been lurking around the estate, awaiting his command.
Could it be... they were all wiped out?
From the corner of his eye, he suddenly spotted a black-robed figure approaching the door. His own eyes lit up fiercely. "Master Feng!" he laughed viciously. "You’ve co at the perfect ti! Quick, kill Lin Fan!"
