The weight of the beans is very light, making almost no sound when thrown, only a noise when they hit the ground. If a bean hits soone before falling to the ground, the sound has a very subtle difference compared to when it falls directly. Simply put, it’s a ti difference. Anyone who has trained for years can proficiently master this skill.
The Zhu Family truly deserves its reputation as a leader in this field, having left behind many practical techniques from the older generation.
"Everyone, let’s not waste ti, let’s get started quickly. I still want to go for a midnight snack," Ling Chen said.
Unfortunately, Ling Chen’s words did not provoke the assassin’s attack.
"You’re still not making a move? Fine, then I won’t play with you anymore. Bye-bye!" Saying this, Ling Chen began to step forward, not caring whether his direction was right or wrong.
However, just as Ling Chen took a step forward, a gust of force suddenly attacked, rushing at great speed. Ling Chen, sensing the impending danger, swiftly turned and threw a punch behind him.
Seemingly feeling Ling Chen’s fierce punch, the opponent did not continue to attack and quickly retreated. But there were three assassins hidden in the dark. One retreated, but there were still two others.
The murderous aura approached, attacking from both left and right. Ling Chen shifted his steps, slightly tilting his body to avoid the attacks of the two n. Suddenly, for so unknown reason, Ling Chen’s body paused, his movents slowed by half a beat.
In a battle of experts, every flaw is lethal. This flaw of Ling Chen imdiately cost him dearly, in blood.
With a ripping sound, Ling Chen’s back was sliced open by a knife blade, leaving a long gash, blood flowing freely.
"Damn!" Ling Chen cursed loudly, quickly retreating. But the three assassins, having succeeded in striking him, would not miss such a good opportunity. Strike while the iron is hot, kill while he’s weak. Ling Chen was injured; this was the best ti to deal with him.
In an instant, the three assassins attacked simultaneously, swiftly lunging toward the retreating Ling Chen.
As he retreated several ters, Ling Chen’s heel suddenly hit a hard object. Crap! It’s a wall, there’s no way out. Ling Chen’s pupils slightly contracted, sensing the three gusts of force coming at him, his Mo Che-like pupils instantly emitting a glint of light.
"Do you really think I’m that easy to bully?" Ling Chen’s tone changed, carrying a hint of irony.
Before the three assassins could react, a dazzling light suddenly shone. The light was blinding, causing the three assassins’ charging bodies to pause slightly, hurriedly shielding their eyes with their hands.
However, this brief mont was enough for Ling Chen to counterattack.
Three consecutive punches were thrown, instantly knocking the three assassins away, their bodies crashing heavily into the wall.
Looking at the fallen assassins, unable to get up, Ling Chen grinned and said, "Since I dared to co, how could I be unprepared? Your tactics and skills are good, but unfortunately, you have a fatal weakness: you can’t stand the light."
Back when he fought Zhu Qing, Ling Chen had considered this issue. Zhu Qing’s strength was indeed great, but she relied on the dark environnt. If it were daylight, Zhu Qing’s strength would be greatly diminished.
The Skyhawk Pavilion’s assassins have the sa origin as Zhu Qing, so Ling Chen thought of a way to restrain them, carrying a portable flashlight. The flashlight was small, but the light was strong, enough to produce magical results.
Just now, Ling Chen deliberately exposed a flaw, took a knife hit, intending to lure them into attacking simultaneously, making them lower their guard, allowing him to capture them all at once.
Despite paying the price of a superficial wound, the result was good. If it weren’t for the unconventional tactics, who knows how much ti it would have taken.
Having dealt with the three assassins, Ling Chen headed straight to the innermost room of the basent. Opening the door, he saw three people sitting in the small room. One was Zhou Qian, another was Ren Han, and the third was his target for tonight, Hong Wei. It was clear that Zhou Qian and Ren Han were relatively calm, and Hong Wei was not worried at all, not only holding a wine glass but also having a stunningly beautiful woman, scantily dressed, sit on his lap.
Upon seeing Ling Chen rush into the room, the three inside were slightly taken aback.
"Oh! Mr. Hong, you certainly know how to enjoy yourself," Ling Chen said with a half-smile.
"You... you..." Hong Wei stared at Ling Chen, his face drastically changed, hastily pushing the woman beside him away, standing up from the chair quickly, and retreating behind Zhou Qian and Ren Han.
"How... how did you get in? What about those outside?" Hong Wei stuttered his question.
Having paid Zhu Hong thirty billion in remuneration today, Hong Wei felt relaxed, believing there would be no more danger, which was why he dared to stay in the basent and enjoy, letting the commotion upstairs continue.
But seeing Ling Chen suddenly appear before him, a sense of ominousness rose in Hong Wei’s heart.
"Are you talking about those assassins?" Ling Chen smiled slightly, "I’ve dealt with them. But rest assured, I’ll soon send you down to et them. When you’re in the realm of the dead, perhaps you can hire them to protect you."
Hearing this, Hong Wei shivered, a chill inexplicably rising in his heart. He had seen many storms in life and was ntally prepared, but when faced with this mont, he was still sowhat afraid and terrified.
No one in this world isn’t afraid of dying. Those who claim they’re not afraid of death have nothing worth holding onto in this world.
"Kill! Quick, kill him!" Hong Wei urged Zhou Qian and Ren Han, shouting loudly.
Facing Hong Wei’s urging, Zhou Qian and Ren Han exchanged glances, both sowhat hesitant.
"Are you two really prepared to go against ?" Ling Chen looked at the two and asked.
Zhou Qian and Ren Han did not speak, both simultaneously falling silent. When they thought of the expert from the Heavenly List behind Ling Chen, neither had the courage to make a move. Even if they joined forces to kill Ling Chen, they themselves wouldn’t fare well, sooner or later facing revenge from the Heavenly List expert.
If they were just two unbound wanderers, perhaps they could act regardless of the consequences. But they both had families, businesses, and managed a Martial Arts Academy. If sothing happened to them, it would definitely affect their families.
Seeing Zhou Qian and Ren Han still not acting, Hong Wei suddenly got angry, kicking Zhou Qian’s calf furiously and shouting, "I told you to kill him, are you deaf? Do it!"
"Mr. Hong, apologies!" Zhou Qian looked back at Hong Wei, "It’s better not to get involved in this matter." After a brief contemplation, Zhou Qian made his decision. For Hong Wei’s sake, it wasn’t worth inviting disaster. As for Hong Wei... he didn’t believe Hong Wei had a chance of surviving tonight.
With Zhou Qian’s stance made clear, Ren Han followed suit.
Seeing the two of them about to leave, Hong Wei finally panicked, desperately grabbing their arms and pleading, "Don’t, don’t go! Zhou Qian, Ren Han, as long as you help kill him, I’ll give you whatever you want."
