In the capital city, in a study of a traditional courtyard house, there was a man with clear eyebrows and bright eyes, wearing a male Tang suit, looking to be under thirty years old. Matching his clothes, he also had a bit of a bookish air about him.
Under the soft lamp light, he held a brush in his right hand and was writing calligraphy on the desk. Just as he wrote the seventh character, the door of the study was suddenly knocked.
"Knock knock knock!"
The sudden knock at the door did not disturb the man. He continued to write seriously, without lifting his head, and shouted: "Come in!"
Cough!
A solid wooden door was pushed open, and a woman dressed in urban office attire walked in elegantly, holding a cup of freshly brewed green tea which she placed on the desk.
The woman put down the tea and said respectfully and gently, "Jiang Cheng just sent a message that Xue Yang is in Jiang City and has killed more than ten island nation's Shadow Guards. Miao Miao asks you, will she handle this alone or will you send someone to assist her?"
Blood Evil was respected as the uncrowned king of mercenaries due to his strength, meticulous and liked to do things steadily. After receiving Sun Xufeng's news, he did not act rashly but chose to report it instead.
"Blood evil?"
The man's face revealed a faint, subtle smile, with the corners of his mouth seemingly expressing his disdain. His hand holding the brush showed no signs of hesitation as he said, "Is there anyone else who can spare some time now?"
The woman replied quickly: "Chou Niu, Si She, and Yin Hu, but Chou Niu is now in Xinjiang, Yin Hu and Si She are closer to Jiang City!"
"Yin Hu has been in this position for just over two years, and the Shadow Guard appearing in Jiang City is probably not a coincidence. Alright, let Si She and Yin Hu go to Jiang City together."
When the man mentioned the word "tiger", his right hand, which was holding the brush, paused for a moment, causing the character on the white paper to be written with a slight deviation of just one stroke, yet this tiny mistake ruined the entire piece.
Bang!
The man put down his brush and crumpled up the white paper on his desk, throwing it into a nearly full trash can that was also filled with similar crumpled white paper balls.
The woman didn't say a word and quietly withdrew from the study. The man looked up and let out a sigh: "Alas!"
No one knows why he sighed all his life.
A few minutes later, the Mi Snake and Yin Tiger, who had received the order, set off from their respective places to Jiang City, including the Mao Rabbit, who was originally in charge of Jiang City, making preparations to go to Jiang City.
They all went for the Blood Scythe and the Dark Shadow Guard that appeared in Jiang City, but they didn't know that the now-famous mercenary king Blood Scythe was once Yin Hu, one of the twelve Dragon Soul Guards.
Perhaps fate has destined them to meet.
Perhaps Ma Fei deliberately let Sun Xufeng see his face, just to attract the person he had been thinking about day and night with the identity of Blood Evil.
Even if Yisi Snake didn't come to Jiang City this time, Ma Fei still had a second plan, but the development of events was just as he wished, and Yisi Snake had already prepared to go to Jiang City.
……
At the same time, in Jiang City First People's Hospital, Ling Xiao, who had just finished surgery, was personally escorted out of the operating room by Zhao Sihai. After returning to his ward, Ling Xiao beckoned for everyone in the ward to leave first.
After the ward was left with only Jia Wenjie, Ling Xiang couldn't help but ask: "Jia Wenjie, how's the situation over there? Is that old bastard Su Rui dead? And Lin Fei, that damn guy, has he been captured?"
Actually, Ling Xiao had high expectations in his heart, because he knew that this time coming to Jiang City, there were many who were dark guards from the island nation.
Among the three levels of ninja masters, two are earth ninjas, and as for the killers, each one is a divine shooter.
So many masters against a single Su Xiu, isn't it an easy capture? Capturing Lin Fei alive might be a bit difficult, but only just a bit.
The final result must be Su Rui's tragic death, and Lin Fei was captured alive, slowly tortured to death by him.
However--
"Sorry young master, they failed. Seven top-level ninjas and eight skilled assassins all died in Su Rui's villa, but Su Rui is still alive."
Jia Wenjie's response made Ling Xiao's fantasy in his heart instantly shattered, and the smile on his face instantly froze and disappeared.
"Dead? All dead? How is this possible? Su Rui is just a real estate tycoon, with only a few bodyguards around him. Such a simple thing, tell me, why did they fail?"
Ling Xiao suddenly became excited, and in an instant, a severe pain spread across his back, causing Ling Xiao to grit his teeth and twist his face into a ferocious expression.
"Master, don't get agitated, calm down, you've just had surgery, if the wound bursts open it's easy to get infected."
Jia Wanjie saw Ling Xiao so excited and hurriedly came forward to comfort him, pressing the struggling Ling Xiao back onto the hospital bed.
After listening to Jia Wenjie, Ling Xiao finally calmed down a bit, took a deep breath and adjusted his mood before speaking: "Speak, what exactly happened."
"Ryūtō Taichi wants me to tell you that this time was an accident. According to the reliable information they've obtained, the reason for the failure of this perfect assassination is all because of a sudden intruder - the Mercenary King, Blood Slaughter."
"Mercenary King Blood Slaughter?"
Ling Xiao's emotions had just calmed down a bit, but he couldn't help but exclaim loudly again, because he understood the meaning of the six words "Mercenary King Blood Butcher" all too well.
Don't look at the Ling family's grandeur, in Province Z, or even the entire Jiangnan region, they can be said to have boundless power and influence, just like a feudal lord of ancient times. However, without the protection of Longhun, in the eyes of Blood Butcher, the King of Mercenaries, they are nothing.
Because in the eyes of Blood Evil, who understands trajectory micro-shooting, a frontal battle would still allow those Ling Family experts to pose a threat to him. But if it were an assassination, at most it would just be troublesome when killing started.
However, this is Jiang City, China. Ling Xiao isn't worried about the threat of Blood Massacre at all, because even Ta Yi from Lian Xiong Island knows that Blood Massacre has appeared here, so the high-level officials of the Ninth Security Bureau must also know.
It's possible that a master who can deal with the Blood Calamity is already on his way.
Ling Xiao finally understood why Ryūdo Taichi's subordinates failed. If they encountered the Blood Calamity, not to mention just seven people-level ninjas, even if Ryūdo Taichi himself led the troops and launched a surprise attack, it was unlikely that anyone would come back alive.
Ling Xiao thought quickly in his mind, then suddenly looked up at Jia Wenjie and asked: "Do you think Lin Fei has any connection with the sudden appearance of Blood Scythe? After all, Blood Scythe is most active in the Middle East and Africa, and Lin Fei happens to be from Africa's Jiang City."
Ling Xiao's suspicion was not a coincidence. If Lin Fei didn't have the backing of a powerful master like Blood Evil, how would he dare to oppose this young master of the Ling family?
Jia Wanjie thought for a moment and nodded in response: "It's not impossible, young master! The sudden appearance of the Blood Calamity will inevitably cause one of the Dragon Soul Twelve Guards to come. At this time, we absolutely cannot have any further contact with Xiong Dao Taiyi and his group. Otherwise, if we're discovered, it'll be difficult for us to get out of this situation."
Ling Xiao strongly agreed with Jia Wenjie's words. He thought carefully and a cold smile appeared on his face. He thought that no matter whether Lin Fei, this Blood Fiend, had any relation to it or not, if even one of the Dragon Soul Twelve Guards were to appear here, the Blood Fiend would probably be unable to protect itself at that time.
If Lin Fei is related to Xue Sha, he won't even need to lift a finger and Lin Fei will be doomed for eternity; if not, then he doesn't care in the slightest.
Ling Xiao, who was secretly laughing and fantasizing in his heart, quickly picked up his phone and dialed Chen Biao's number. As soon as the call connected, Chen Biao's voice came from the receiver.
"Lin Shao, it's so late, what instructions do you have for me?"
Ling Xiao's voice was cold and detached as he spoke in a tone that brooked no refusal, "Tomorrow the plan must be set in motion. I've already arranged for the patient. Tomorrow, no matter what method you use, bring Lin Fei to the Municipal People's Hospital..."
Arrogant Ling Xiao was talking to Chen Biao on his mobile phone about his perfect plan, completely unaware that his so-called perfect plan had already been eavesdropped by Allen.
Ziyang Garden, Ma Fei's villa, Allen, who had invaded Jiangcheng Mobile Communication System, was focusing on monitoring all communication methods of Ling Xiang.
When Ling Xiao was discussing the plan with Chen Biao on his mobile phone, Allen was eavesdropping using his own laptop and amplifying the sound so that Lin Fei, Mo Tian and Ma Fei could all hear it.
"Older brother, this rabbit is really a belly full of bad water. If not, I'll go tie him up tonight and throw him into the sea to feed the sharks."
Mo Tian rubbed his fists and wiped his palms, saying that Ma Fei was even more direct, putting the gun on the table and indicating that he would reward Ling Xiang with a bullet.
Lin Fei smiled faintly: "Others have worked so hard to set this up, if I don't join in, how can Ling Xiao use up the remaining two chances?"
There are two more chances, Lin Fei said and did. Once the opportunity is gone, Ling Xiao still doesn't give up, then it will be his death.
