142 – In One Fell Swoop
Shu Feng asked, “Who hired you to kill me?”
Sally answered, “I don’t know. We just received the task from the Angels of Death Network. The employer’s details may only be known to the founder of the Angels of Death Network.”
Shu Feng asked, “What is the Angel of Death Network?”
“The Angels of Death Network is one of the three great assassin networks in the world. We can receive assassination tasks from the Angels of Death Network. After a successful assassination, we can get a monetary reward and network contribution points.”
“By completing tasks and amassing network contribution points, we can upgrade our status and authority on the Angels of Death Network. The higher the status and authority, the higher is the level of secret methods and cultivation resources that can be purchased.” Sally explained.
Shu Feng asked, “Who is the strongest person on Angels of Death Network?”
“There are three assassins that are regarded as the strongest on the Angels of Death Network at present, namely Dark Hand, Crimson Eyes, and Bloody Fangs. They may be three individuals, or three teams like us. The greatest record of the three organizations is the assassination of Spirit Venerable realm powerhouses.”
“As for how strong they are, we don’t know. After all, assassination is different from frontal combat. If the ability is weird enough, a Spirit Master realm powerhouse can assassinate a Spirit Grandmaster realm powerhouses.” Sally answered.
Shu Feng nodded.
In terms of true strength, ten Sallies are not a match for Shu Feng. Yet he was still poisoned by Sally. If it were not for the mysterious Sun Moon Scripture, he would have died once.
Sally spoke with longing, “The strongest assassin of a previous generation, Empress Dugu, managed to poison Spirit Saint Wen Tianshu to death while in the Spirit Master realm. She is regarded as a legendary figure among assassins.”
150 years ago, Spirit Saint Wen Tianshu was the Prime Minister of the Qianyuan Republic. He grasped the power of the Qianyuan Republic and even threatened the position of the royal Luo Family.
Empress Dugu, the wife of then emperor of the Qianyuan Republic, was the most beautiful woman of the Qianyuan Republic at the time. She was ordered to deal with Wen Tianshu and ended up poisoning the Spirit Saint to death.
When Wen Tianshu died, the Qianyuan Republic almost broke out into civil war. In the end many aristocratic families joined hands as guarantors. After countless negotiations, the magnus Wen Family paid a huge price, ceded a large amount of territories, and dropped to a 7th grade aristocratic family, barely surviving.
Because of this, Empress Dugu became the object of worship of countless assassins. After all, she was the first assassin with Spirit Master realm cultivation base to kill a Spirit Saint.
Spirit Grandmaster realm powerhouses possess terrifying spirit sense. Once there’s murderous intent around them, they will perceive it right away. The spirit sense of Spirit Saint realm powerhouses is god knows how many times more formidable.
Wen Tianshu was also one of the most powerful Spirit Saints of Blue Star at the time. If Empress Dugu hadn’t poisoned him, the magnus Wen Family would probably have replaced the royal Luo Family and become the royal family of the Qianyuan Republic.
Shu Feng asked, “Where are the other three members of Black Cheetah? Can you contact them?”
Sally replied, “I don’t know the whereabouts of boss Fel Cheetah. As for the other two, they are in the Reio Republic. If I go to the Reio Republic, I can contact them.”
Shu Feng uttered with a faint smile, “Very well. Go contact them, reassure them, and ask them to meet up.”
As she watched Shu Feng smile, Sally felt like he was a fiend. Deep down she wanted to refuse, but her body acted on its own, and she said respectfully, “Yes! Master!”
When the plane arrived in the capital of the Reio Republic, Shu Feng and company entered a 5 star hotel.
At night, in Wild Dragon and Sea Waves Bar, loud music played and a hot girls danced on the dance floor.
“There are so many beautiful girls in this bar. Why hasn’t Sally come yet? If she isn’t here soon, I’m going to have fun with those beautiful girls.”
Sitting in a luxurious crystal private room, Johnny looked through the crystal glass at the girls dancing on the dance floor and licked his lips.
Robin said flatly, “Johnny, it’s because you are like this that Sally doesn’t like you.”
Johnny sighed faintly, “The one Sally likes is the boss. With the boss around, Sally won’t spare me a look. I can’t compete with the boss.”
Just then, Sally took a man wearing a skull mask into the crystal private room.
Robin frowned and asked, “Sally, who’s that?”
“I’m her master!”
The young man wearing a skull mask removed the mask, revealing Shu Feng’s smiling face.
“Shu Feng!”
When Johnny saw Shu Feng, his countenance changed dramatically, and his right hand shot towards his waist as lightning speed.
Robin’s eyes flashed fiercely, and he pointed at Shu Feng. Runes appeared on the red ring on his right hand at once, and a fireball shot towards Shu Feng like a shell.
The level-1 spell Fireball possesses tremendous power. It can blow away the door of a car with one shot, which is difficult for even Spirit Master realm powerhouses to resist.
“Magicians are really something else. Unfortunately, you hit the wrong target!”
Shu Feng smiled coldly, and the fireball went right through him and hit the glass wall.
Along with a loud bang, countless glass shards sputtered in all directions.
Bursts of screams erupted throughout the bar as men and women ran frantically outside.
“Curses! I was hit by an illusion!”
Robin felt a chill rise in his heart. A hand extended from behind him and grabbed him by neck.
At this time, a black necklace in front of Robin’s chest burst out with faint black light. The spell Drowsy hit Shu Feng behind him.
Burst of fatigue welled up inside Shu Feng, and then the divinities inside him trembled and dispelled the fatigue.
“Magicians are really troublesome! It’s a shame, but your opponent is me!”
Shu Feng smiled calmly and constricted his hand, and spirit force surged and made Robin pass out.
“Go to hell!”
Johnny frantically urged his spirit force and fired at Shu Feng.
Armor-Piercing Bullets infused with spirit force passed by Shu Feng and blasted large holes into a wall.
“Settle down!”
Shu Feng took a step forward, and a sun palm slammed into Johnny.
Bang!
As if a broken rag doll, Johnny hit the wall and spewed out a mouthful of blood, breaking who knows how many ribs, on the verge of death.
“Oh, I almost killed him! I unexpectedly became so strong!”
Shu Feng looked at the dying Johnny, and the corners of his mouth rose into a smile.
