Chapter Eighty-Five: Shadow Group
When Xia Tian arrived at Qiao Feng Er's room, Qiao Feng Er was already asleep, while Qiao Huai Er sat on the edge of the bed, looking worriedly at Qiao Feng Er's somewhat pale face.
Although they look like sisters, in reality, they are just two orphans who grew up in the Qiao family. The Qiao family has a group of children who were trained from a young age and became bodyguards for important figures when they grew up. Qiao Feng'er and Qiao Hu'er are two of these children and also the most skilled girls among them, so they were assigned to protect Qiao Xiaoqiao, the most important girl in the Qiao family.
Qiao Feng'er blocked a bullet for Qiao Xiaoqiao, but fortunately, the bullet only hit her right arm. With timely treatment, there was no risk to her life, just a period of rest and recovery that couldn't be avoided.
In the summer, he pinched the already washed bullet head with his hand and observed it carefully. When he saw a small dark character on it, his face finally became a bit heavy.
"Is there really a sign upstairs?" Qiao Donghai felt that Xia Tian's expression was not quite right, so he asked.
"It's incredible that I've run into these people so soon." Xia Tian muttered to himself, "These bastards actually dared to kill my wife. This time, I'll take them all down and also help Er Shifu vent his anger."
"A group of people?" Qiao Donghai's expression changed, "Xiatian, wasn't the killer just one person?"
"The killer can be said to be one, or it can be said that there are ten or even more. This is a killer organization that has existed for at least fifty years, called the Shadow Gang." Xia Tian said slowly, "The bullets used by all members of this killer gang are specially made by themselves, with a dark character on them, which is their unique logo, and no one dares to imitate it."
"Shadow Group?" Joe Donghai slightly furrowed his brow, "I don't think I've ever heard of such an assassin organization!"
In the summer, he didn't answer Qiao Donghai's question. The strength of the Shadow Gang was something that ordinary people wouldn't know about. However, Second Master had once told him that twenty years ago, at least five of the world's top ten assassins belonged to the Shadow Gang. This data alone was enough to illustrate just how powerful the Shadow Gang was in the assassin world.
According to Ershifu's words, the Dark Shadow Team is not just a simple killer team, but a huge killer empire. The targets they have set their sights on, up until now, only one has survived, and that is Ershifu himself.
Erbai was able to escape thanks to San Shifu, if not for the fact that San Shifu was chasing and killing Erbai at the time, which inadvertently saved Erbai's life, the Dark Shadow would still have maintained its undefeated record.
And yet, the Second Master was once the world's number one killer king, but because he liked to fight alone and refused to join the Shadow Gang, he was hunted down by them. Of course, the Second Master wasn't someone to be trifled with, and during the hunt, the Shadow Gang also suffered heavy losses, losing dozens of top-notch killers. But being able to chase the world's number one killer all over the world already speaks volumes about the terror of the Shadow Gang.
"Husband, is it serious?" Qiao Xiao Jiao couldn't help but ask as she saw Xia Tian remain silent.
"Don't worry, I'm here, no one can hurt you." Xia Tian shook his head, he wasn't afraid of the Dark Shadow Gang because his current strength was far beyond what his Second Master could compare to. He had a naturally gifted Ice Fire Spirit Body and had also learned the Reverse Heaven Eight Needles, plus the special guidance from his Fairy Sister, which made him already far surpass his three masters in terms of strength.
"Summer, can you tell me about the Shadow Gang's situation?" Qiao Donghai couldn't help but interrupt.
"All you need to know is that the Shadow Clan is the most powerful assassin organization in this world," Xia Tian said calmly, "As long as their target isn't dead, they'll keep sending assassins, which means that from now on, more of the Shadow Clan's killers will appear."
"How can Xiao Qiao's danger be completely lifted?" Qiao Donghai's face changed slightly, and his intuition told him that Xia Tian was not exaggerating.
"There are usually only two ways to go about it," Shatian said slowly, "First, get the employer to cancel the commission, but usually, even if the employer cancels the commission, the Shadow Guild won't refund the money. So unless we find the employer and force him to cancel the commission, there's no way he'll do it voluntarily."
"What's the second way?" Qiao Donghai couldn't help but ask.
"The second way is to take out all the killers in the Shadow Gang." Xia Tian glanced at Qiao Donghai, "I think you should go find the mastermind behind the scenes, and as for me, I'll just take care of taking them all out."
"That employer I will definitely go find, but the clues are too few, and it's probably very hard to find." Qiao Donghai was a bit helpless. "Isn't there any other way?"
"There's actually another way, which is to hide in a place that's isolated from the world and never come out." Xia Tian said lazily, "Although I know there's a place to hide, I know Xiao Qiao doesn't like hiding there, and my wife Xia Tian doesn't need to hide either. So, I choose to take down those guys completely."
Qiao Xiaoqiao naturally knew that the place was on the mountain, but as Xia Tian said, she didn't like staying on the mountain, a place without internet, TV, or phone signal, which wasn't suitable for her lifestyle.
Qiao Donghai didn't intend to let Qiao Xiaoqiao hide either. On the one hand, he was still a bit skeptical about whether the dark forces were really that powerful. On the other hand, it was because the Qiao family needed Qiao Xiaoqiao. If Qiao Xiaoqiao hid and isolated herself from the world, she would also lose her value.
"Alright, I'll go investigate who's trying to harm our Qiao family. Summer, Xiao Qiao's safety is now in your hands, and I trust you won't let anything happen to her." Qiao Donghai made his decision quickly. Just a few hours ago, Summer was still someone the Qiao family didn't want to see, but everyone knew that Summer would care more about Xiao Qiao's safety than anyone else, so having him protect Xiao Qiao closely was undoubtedly the best choice.
Qiao Donghai didn't continue to stay either, actually, he also knew that Qiao Xiaoqiao wasn't willing for him to stay here for too long, this was her private domain, in her eyes, this big brother of hers was also an outsider.
"Husband, can you make Feng'er recover quickly?" Qiao Xiaoqiao asked Xia Tian as soon as Qiao Donghai left.
"It's okay, I'll give her an injection and she should be back to normal by tomorrow," Xia Tian replied.
Qiao Huang'er couldn't help but glance at Xia Tian, this color wolf was really amazing.
"Then you give Feng'er an injection first." Qiao Xiaoqiao said hurriedly.
Xiatian nodded, took out the silver needle, and continuously pricked more than a dozen needles around Jiaofeng's injured area. Using the Ice Fire Spiritual Energy to stimulate her wound, this way could speed up the healing of the wound.
Qiao Hu'er didn't quite believe in Xia Tian, but since Qiao Xiaoqiao asked Xia Tian to administer the injection, she naturally had nothing to say. She was thinking that if Feng Er hadn't recovered by tomorrow, she could tell Qiao Xiaoqiao that her husband was a big liar.
After giving Qiao Feng'er an injection, Qiao Xiaoqiao took Xia Tian back to her own bedroom. This time, her bedroom was much neater and no longer had bras, underwear, socks, and shoes scattered all over the floor.
"Wife, do you know who wants to kill you?" Xia Tian asked, hugging Qiao Xiao Jiao.
"I don't know." Qiao Xiaoqiao shook her head. "In all these years, although I've been attacked by people before, this is the first time I've encountered a professional killer."
"How did this city suddenly have so many professional killers?" Xia Tian muttered to himself, having just caught a killer at the police station, and now Qiao Qiao had encountered another one. Was today some kind of Killer's Carnival?
In fact, Xia Tian didn't mind the killer at all, because his second master was also a killer. If these killers really wanted to have a crazy day in Jianghai City, he wouldn't be opposed to it either. But there was one condition: don't provoke him. Now, this killer had actually made a move on his wife, so Xia Tian decided that today would become the killers' day of suffering.
"Wife, let's go out for a walk." Xia Tian said to Qiao Xiaoqiao.
"Okay, we haven't strolled around the streets together yet!" Qiao Xiaoqiao agreed in one breath.
Although she had just been assassinated, Qiao Qiao was not afraid at all, because she knew that Xia Tian had the ability to protect her. In Jiang Hai City, no one knew Xia Tian's skills better than her.
Just then, as the two of them walked out of the elevator hand in hand, they startled Qiao Donghai who had not yet left the Qiao Building.
"Xiao Qiao, Xia Tian, where are you two going?" Jiao Donghai hastily walked over.
"Let's go window shopping." Qiao Xiaoqiao said casually.
"Xiao Qiao, something just happened and you still want to go shopping?" Qiao Donghai was anxious, he turned his head to look at Xia Tian, "I'm saying Xia Tian, why don't you advise her?"
"It's because I want to go shopping." Xia Tian smiled faintly, "It's precisely because something just happened, that's why I want to go shopping."
"You think..." Qiao Donghai wasn't stupid, he immediately understood Xia Tian's intention, but he still shook his head vigorously, "No way, this won't do, it's too dangerous!"
"With me around, nowhere is dangerous." Xia Tian didn't think so, and Qiao Donghai's opposition had no effect on him. As he spoke, he was already pulling Qiao Xiaoqiao out of the Qiao Corporation building.
"Honey, where shall we go for a stroll?" Qiao Xiaoqiao asked.
"Let's go to Jianghai University and see Xiang Jie first," Xia Tian said casually. "We can just take a taxi there."
"Okay." Qiao Xiaoqiao did not object.
Qiao Donghai's attempts to stop them were in vain, and he could only watch helplessly as Xia Tian and Qiao Xiao Jiao got into a taxi. Just as he was about to have someone follow them, Xia Tian suddenly stuck his head out of the window: "Don't follow me, or I'll beat people up!"
Qiao Donghai could only watch as the taxi drove away with the two of them, after a moment's thought, he finally picked up his phone and dialed a number: "Second Uncle, it's Donghai."
