207: Chapter 207: This is a Warning!
“You all are going to die!”
Ning Fan curled his lips, revealing a row of chillingly white teeth.
His calves suddenly exerted force, propelling him forward through the night like a ghostly shadow!
“Stop him for me, anyone who can stop him will be the second in command of the Dragon Eagle Hall from now on!”
Gu Leng roared hoarsely, his hands not sitting idle as he tried to take the life of a fellow before Ning Fan could reach him.
But within Ning Fan’s field of vision, he clearly couldn’t accomplish that anymore!
“Bang!”
Like a kite with its string cut, Gu Leng was kicked flying over ten meters away, lying on the ground crazily spitting blood and food remnants.
With this kick, Ning Fan had truly become furious!
The half of the Tang Blade that Gu Leng had been holding flew into the air.
Ning Fan leaped up, grabbed the Tang Blade, and charged into the mass of black-clad assailants bearing down on him!
“Snap!”
With the Tang Blade held slightly sideways, Ning Fan knocked out all the teeth of a burly man in black, then with a kick, sent him flying.
In Gu Leng’s hands, the half-piece of the Tang Blade was like a lump of scrap iron, but in Ning Fan’s, it was a divine weapon!
That was the difference between the wielders of the weapon!
“Kill him for me, kill him!”
Someone roared aloud.
“Let’s do it together.”
Ning Fan coldly maneuvered the half-blade, which seemed to come alive in his grip.
“We’ll all go at once, I don’t believe he can…argh!”
Spurt!
A flash of the blade, a burst of blood, and an arm gruesomely flew into the air.
The man in black hadn’t finished his sentence when Ning Fan harshly chopped off his arm!
“I’m going to fight you to the end!”
The men in black gritted their teeth.
Ning Fan shook his head.
Puff puff puff…
The Tang Blade swung horizontally, immediately slashing through the necks of three men!
The trio instantly froze, their eyes filled with terror.
Blood couldn’t gush quickly enough as they looked down only to see their heads dislodged from their necks, followed by a torrent of thick blood gushing skyward!
Headless bodies fell to the ground, convulsing madly…
The others turned pale, struggling to swallow their saliva.
This man in front of them was simply a demon!
But faced with a huge temptation, they had no choice!
Rushing forward together, within a few breaths, a dozen black-clad men lay scattered on the ground.
Ning Fan patted his hands, walking slowly towards Gu Leng like a devil.
“Don’t come any closer…
behind me is Su City’s Lord Dragon, if you dare touch me, Lord Dragon won’t let you off!”
“Oh, is that so?”
Ning Fan gave a slight smile and said, “Then I am indeed a bit scared.”
“Let me go, I absolutely won’t report this to Lord Dragon!”
As if grasping at a newfound hope, the light returned to Gu Leng’s eyes.
However, in the next second, the sharp Tang Blade had already pierced through the inner side of his thigh!
Blood slowly dripped out.
Ning Fan raised his eyelids and slowly said, “You have two minutes to tell me what you should do.
After two minutes, your blood will run dry, and you will die.”
Ning Fan’s calm voice made it sound as if he was discussing something trivial.
“Lord Dragon won’t let you go; he will avenge me.
Ninth Master, your end is sealed.
This isn’t your Jianghu anymore!”
Gu Leng pressed against his thigh wound, furiously bellowing.
Ning Fan waved his hand, lifting the fellow and revealing a bored expression as he said, “This guy’s pretty tough.
He’s from the Dragon Eagle Hall; I’ll leave him to you.”
The Eagle’s expression was stern as he nodded solemnly, stepping toward Gu Leng.
“Why did you betray me?
Ever since I became the boss of Dragon Eagle Hall, I gradually promoted you to the second most powerful figure.
Weren’t you satisfied?
Why!”
The Eagle roared at Gu Leng.
Gu Leng exhaled a cold breath from the tip of his nose, the furrowed brows from pain slowly eased as a look of scorn appeared in his eyes, but he pursed his lips and said nothing.
After a long while, Gu Leng sighed, “I betrayed you, and I deserve to die.
Kill me.”
“Who is the mastermind behind this?
Tell me, and I won’t kill you!”
Eagle spoke gravely.
Gu Leng’s eyes widened, a hint of joy flashed in his eyes.
However, just as he was about to speak, a flying needle suddenly tore through the air and struck right at the acupoint on his neck!
Then Gu Leng fell down, eyes wide open.
“Ninth Master, why didn’t you let me ask clearly?
There’s a debt to be paid, I must take revenge on that guy!”
Eagle looked at Ning Fan with some confusion.
Ning Fan smiled faintly, waved his hand, and said, “When will the cycle of revenge end if we persist?
Let’s not ask anymore; let’s go.”
Actually, he probably knew who the mastermind was, but he still didn’t want to hear that name.
After they left, the street fell silent again.
…
In Zi Hongyu’s lair, a scene of song and dance abounded.
He was embracing a seductive woman, dancing a close tango.
Just as he was enjoying himself, a subordinate suddenly approached with a serious expression, holding a box and whispered, “Boss Zi, there was a delivery guy who said this package is for you!”
“My package?
When did this happen?”
“Just now!”
Zi Hongyu’s eyes flickered with confusion, wondering who would send him a package, especially so late at night?
He opened the box.
However, the instant he opened it, the contents inside gave him a severe shock!
Inside the box, there lay two blood-engorged eyeballs!
Eyeballs that had been gouged out!
Zi Hongyu recognized them.
They were Gu Leng’s eyeballs, Eagle’s advisor.
“How…
how is this possible…
how is this possible…”
Gu Leng was dead, his matters surely exposed, and the reason his eyes were gouged out and sent here was glaringly clear to Zi Hongyu.
He wiped the sweat from his forehead, his fingers trembling as he said, “This is a warning, this is a warning!”
The two blood-filled eyes rolled in the box, slowly coming to a stop, angled toward Zi Hongyu.
Like the lamenting spirit of a wrongly killed soul whistling by his ears, Zi Hongyu looked into Gu Leng’s eyes, almost seeing the horrendous way he had died.
Through those eyes, not only did Zi Hongyu see the gruesome death of Gu Leng, but he also saw Ning Fan and the Ninth Master, whose face was carefree yet bore an endless murderous intent.
And himself, Zi Hongyu, unknowingly seeing his own reflection in the eyes.
Gu Leng’s death, along with Ning Fan’s return, now turned into a haunting shadow for Zi Hongyu.
These eyes of Gu Leng were a gift from Ning Fan; the Ninth Master had returned.
Only then did Zi Hongyu remember Ning Fan, renowned for stirring the winds in Zhonghai, a Demon-like figure of immense power.
He was no ailing cat, but a dormant lion.
The fact that Ning Fan hadn’t come to reclaim his power didn’t mean that the reputation of the Ninth Master was now worthless.
Zi Hongyu looked at Gu Leng’s eyes, collapsing onto the couch, while his subordinate looked on puzzled, only then noticing what was inside the box.
“Zi…
Boss Zi, this, this, this…”
The subordinate, seeing the eyes in the box, stammered and trembled as he pointed at them.
Of course, the subordinate didn’t recognize whose eyes they were; he was merely stunned by the gruesome sight.
Usually, Zi Hongyu would have scolded him, but now, he couldn’t care less.
“Get out!”
Zi Hongyu barked sharply, gesturing for his subordinate to leave.
The room was left with only Zi Hongyu and Gu Leng’s eyes facing each other.
Zi Hongyu dared not look at Gu Leng’s eyes any longer, quickly covered the box, and took out his phone.
He hesitated for a long time, but finally, he made a call.
Thanks to: Emperor, you sour milk, Perfect Happiness 400 coins for the gift.
Here’s something I want to say, there will be fewer updates these days because my sister is getting married.
As a brother, I must also wish her well, so please forgive Little Ji for being busy.
I’ll definitely update more once I’m less busy.
There’ll be fewer updates these days, but not none!
After all, a wedding is a once-in-a-lifetime event, so I owe you all an apology.
