The ssage received said that the strength of these three was about the sa as the Five Ghosts back then, yet in front of Xiaofan, they couldn't even last a single move.
This doesn't an Xiaofan's strength has surpassed Ren Zhongtian's. It was because at that ti, Ren Zhongtian was already in his twilight years. He didn't have much ti left, and his power had greatly diminished. The Five Ghosts were already familiar with each other, allowing them to cooperate flawlessly. It was Xiaofan's one bullet back then that took out one of the ghosts, causing them to suddenly lose a person and giving Ren Zhongtian a chance to catch his breath and kill them one by one.
Seeing the disbelief slowly fade from Tanaka's eyes, Xiaofan looked at his own palm with curiosity, not because he was surprised at how strong he had beco, but because he admired how terrifying Ren Zhongtian's existence was when he was at his peak.
"Boss..."
"Hmm? It's all fine, right?" Xiaofan tossed the dagger in his hand back to He Qiang and asked lightly.
"It's fine, the injuries aren't serious..."
"Xiaofan, your Inner Strength..." Shan Feng was primarily concerned about this point.
"Hmm, it's recovered. Last night. But I only just found out myself. Sorry to have worried everyone. But for now, don't leak the news about my recovery. Just say those three were dealt with by you guys," Xiaofan said slowly.
"Hmm? Why's that?" Shan Feng asked curiously.
"Ah, Elder Shan, if our boss says so, there must be a reason. Let's not ask too much," Li Sai said loudly.
"You young people. So, Xiaofan, are you really going to Japan?" Shan Feng still hoped Xiaofan would reconsider.
"Hmm, in two days."
"Ah..." Shan Feng let out a long sigh, wanting to persuade but unable to speak.
The things Xiaofan should know, he already knew. The things that needed persuading, Ye Aotian and Fan Lingtian had already done, but this kid insisted, so saying more was useless. It was better to keep silent.
"Then, I'll leave the aftermath here to you..." As Xiaofan spoke, he began walking toward the bamboo grove.
"Boss, where are you going?"
"Hmm? There are a few pieces of trash left to deal with. I'll take care of them on the way, and you all can return to base when you're done here..."
With that said, Xiaofan quickened his pace, clearly already aware of the positions of those who had been tailing him.
The news of his Inner Strength recovery couldn't be leaked for now. This way, the opponent would lower their guard against him, greatly increasing the chances of rescuing Zuimo.
Outside the bamboo grove, the assassins who followed Xiaofan all the way to Evergreen Park suddenly lost his trace.
They assud he must have entered the bamboo grove, but Tanaka and others had previously instructed not to ddle in their mission to kill Ye Xiaofan, so they could only wait anxiously outside the grove.
However, what awaited them was the arrival of the Death God.
The cold air suddenly enveloped the seven assassins. Suddenly, the warm sunshine above was blocked by a shadow, and as they looked up, their necks were exposed.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh...
Seven toothpicks shot out simultaneously. Landing on one foot, Xiaofan bounced back up, his figure disappearing in an instant.
When Lin Hongbin and the others rushed out of the bamboo grove, they saw seven identical corpses on the ground. Each one's throat pierced with a toothpick, leaving no doubt this was Xiaofan's handiwork.
This was the true lethality of the hidden weapon toothpick, not sothing a half-baked Soul of Slaughter could easily imitate.
No need for compassion or empathy. Xiaofan no longer needed to think about such non-existent things. Killing was just killing. Why consider if the opponent had children or elders to care for? When he thought for others, did others ever think for him?
"Hey, Kuo..."
"Hmm? Not dead yet."
"What are you saying, do a favor..."
"No help..."
"Ah? Hey, hey? Hey..."
This left Xiaofan unexpectedly looking at his phone, as Li Kuo had never refused his request so straightforwardly before.
Calling again, Li Kuo hung up directly.
Helplessly, Xiaofan had to drive straight to Li Kuo's house.
And Li Kuo obviously knew Xiaofan was coming, instructing the security to lock the main gate and releasing the guard dogs, clearly not wanting to see Xiaofan.
However, how could Xiaofan, with his recovered Inner Strength, not be able to enter Li Kuo's house?
"Li Kuo, what's your problem?"
"Damn it, how did you get in here?" Seeing Xiaofan coming in through his balcony, Li Kuo quickly stood up.
"Throwing a tantrum?" Xiaofan picked up the fruit on the table and said with a smirk.
"You're now the target of an Assassination Order. If you co to my house and assassins target us too, then what? Get out, as far as possible..." Li Kuo didn't want to say more and pushed Xiaofan back towards the balcony.
"Hey hey, Japan has sent three people over, which ans the Assassination Order has stopped taking missions for today. As long as news of those three's deaths doesn't spread, then temporarily, no one's targeting ." Xiaofan quickly explained.
"How do you know no one's targeting you now... wait? What? Those three are dead? You did it..."
"Of course, with my current strength, it's easy to detect if soone's tailing . So rest assured."
Joking, when had Li Kuo ever truly worried about this point? He had other reasons.
"Not assured, get out get out..."
"What? Are you cutting ties with ?"
"Cut ties if needed... my house doesn't welco you."
"Fine, before we cut ties, help one last ti, I beg you."
"Your troubles are too difficult, I'm not helping." Li Kuo refused without second thought.
"Kuo..." How could Xiaofan not know what Li Kuo was thinking?
"Aren't you done yet? I said I'm not helping you, what more do you want?"
"But besides you, no one else can help . I must fly to Japan."
"You going to die has nothing to do with ."
"Would you really watch go to my death?"
"You..." Li Kuo was suddenly speechless. Right, ntioning cutting ties never made him feel guilty, but watching this guy go to his death... he couldn't even speak: "You know you'll die yet still go? Yes, you're asking for my help just to struggle a bit when you go to Japan, but if I help you, knowing you'll definitely go, and you die, then I'm an accomplice. Better if we all leave you alone, letting you have no way out."
These two argued like kids, tit for tat, but being so familiar for years, how could they not know each other's thoughts? Yet, the childishness on the surface couldn't hide the sincerity towards each other inside.
