Chapter 592 The Dramatic Revelation of Their True Colors [2 Updates]
The two words were plain and unremarkable, as if they were just about going to have a cup of tea, rather than taking down an ancient O-state tycoon.
Seeing the cannons that had been reduced to rubble, how could the elders not be able to react no matter how shocked they were?
This is a martial arts practitioner!
Moreover, they are not ordinary ancient martial arts practitioners; they are definitely at least ancient martial arts grandmasters.
The Patch family also suspected that Devil was an ancient martial artist, otherwise he could not have killed an elder so easily.
When they examined the elder's injuries afterward, they discovered that his heart meridian was ruptured, but there were no visible wounds on the surface.
Aside from some kind of laser weapon, only ancient martial arts practitioners could accomplish this.
Therefore, the Patch family purchased higher-level weapons specifically to defend against ancient martial artists.
That cannonball earlier was definitely capable of killing even a grandmaster of ancient martial arts.
how so?
Could there be even more powerful ancient martial arts practitioners above the grandmasters?
How are we supposed to fight this?!
The Grand Elder took a step back and shouted sternly, "Increase the firepower!"
"Bang bang bang!"
Despite the hail of bullets, Fu Yunshen, protected by his internal energy, was not harmed in the slightest.
He didn't go in through the door at all; instead, he used his internal strength to leap up the bricks from the outer perimeter of the castle, which was over a hundred meters high.
The elders finally panicked completely.
Seeing the man closing in, the elder lost his balance and collapsed to the ground.
"Shh, don't be so scared." Fu Yunshen chuckled softly. "I still need you to show me the way."
He tilted his head slightly and waved his hand.
The internal energy sealed the acupoints of the other six elders from a distance, rendering them unable to move.
The First Elder's face turned pale as Fu Yunshen lifted him up with one hand and forced him to walk into the castle.
**
As the head of the four major financial groups in O Continent, the Patch family's castle is naturally enormous, no different from a small city with a population of two or three hundred thousand.
The commotion outside the castle had no effect on the interior.
After all, the Patch family's castle was located on the border, where there was the sound of gunfire every day.
If things calm down one day, the Pazzi family will find it strange.
Moreover, with the council of elders and so many firearms at their disposal, who could really conquer the Patch family?
However, the fact that it doesn't affect the core members of the Patch family doesn't mean that other forces monitoring the Patch family can't see it.
Almost at the same moment the Grand Elder ordered all firearms to be aimed at Fu Yunshen, the Laurent family received the news.
The message was delivered directly to Caesar.
"Tsk, Devil has really gone mad. Could it be..." Xize's icy blue eyes narrowed, "that he really stole my wife?"
He, the dignified head of the Laurent family, has a name that appears in countless parts of history.
Yet he remains a single aristocrat.
Is this fair?
Job: "..."
Is this the key point we should be focusing on?
Job asked tactfully, "Master, what should we do?"
“Let’s watch first. But the mercenary team can be deployed now.” Caesar stroked his chin. “The boss said he’d contact me tonight with a gift. Job, guess what? The boss will give me…”
At this point, Xize suddenly realized something.
His expression changed drastically: "Oh no, the boss went to the Patch family alone!"
Upon hearing this, Job was also shocked: "Alone?"
To put it bluntly, even the eldest elder of the Laurent family would never dare to barge into the Pazzi family alone.
The Laurent family did not directly confront the Pazzi family, precisely because a confrontation would come at a considerable cost.
Xize immediately stood up: "All mercenary teams, move out."
He never expected that the gift Ying Zijin said she was giving him was from the Patch family.
Job hesitated for a moment: "Master, what excuse should we use?"
The four major conglomerates maintained a balance, and the other three conglomerates could not stand idly by and watch the Pazzi family be swallowed up by the Laurent family.
The situation in Europe is too complex; a single move can have far-reaching consequences.
This is also why the Laurent family has kept the Pazzi family around until now.
"An excuse?" Caesar glanced at him and clicked his tongue. "Just say that I'm the kind of person who likes money and wants to steal Devil's bounty. I can't let him do it all by himself, understand?"
Job: "..."
**
After Ying Zijing finished reading in the library, it was already 6:30 pm.
The banquet will begin at 7 p.m.
The servants hurried along, still preparing the meal.
Raven had been waiting outside the library for a long time. When he saw the girl come out, he straightened his suit and said, "Miss Ying, right? The head of the family asked me to take you to the banquet hall."
Seeing that Ying Zijing was not on guard, he did not hide his intentions and led her to a secluded grove of trees, where he stopped.
Raven turned around, his meaning clear.
He beckoned, somewhat impatiently: "Aren't you coming over here? Do you want me to serve you?"
Ying Zijing tilted her head slightly, her eyes cool and indifferent: "You'd better not touch me."
"Alright, stop pretending." Raven scoffed. "What are you pretending to be, some virtuous and chaste woman? How many people in your entertainment industry are truly clean?"
"You can't even keep a proper private life. It's your honor that I've taken a liking to you. There's no one here. Who are you trying to impress with this pretense?"
Ying Zijing felt sleepy and yawned.
Raven chuckled: "But to be honest, I'm already tired of female celebrities. I've never been with a boss like you before, you must be much more fun."
He didn't take Ying Zijing's words to heart at all, and directly reached out to grab the girl's arm.
But before Raven's hand could even touch the girl's clothes, his fingers trembled.
The next second, he let out a heart-wrenching scream.
He clutched his convulsing heart and collapsed as if twitching.
His face quickly turned pale, and he fainted completely.
Ying Zijing didn't look at him, and took out the black robe from her backpack.
The banquet hall wasn't far from here, and Raven's scream startled Germain.
He rushed over and saw Raven lying on the ground; his expression changed drastically.
"Don't worry, I won't die. It just means I won't be able to do those kinds of things anymore, and I won't be able to carry on the Patch family line." Ying Zijin put on her clothes unhurriedly. "I never kill people casually. It would create karmic burdens and cause and effect. It's not worth it."
Germain's eyes widened in fury: "You—!"
But the next second, he couldn't speak.
Because the girl had already put on her coat, her attire seemed familiar.
Black robe, black cloak.
Their faces were completely concealed, making it impossible to tell whether they were male or female.
Recalling last year, the Bevan family invited the First Poison Master to treat the Bevan family's chief illness, and the underground S-class mercenary group was defeated by the First Poison Master with a wave of his hand.
As everything connected, a sudden realization struck Germain, and he blurted out, "You...you're the number one poison master?!"
“You got it right.” Ying Zijing changed her voice to a neutral one, neither male nor female. “But there’s no reward.”
Germain's face turned deathly pale instantly: "No...impossible!"
How could the number one poison master possibly be in China?
And, she's a woman?
They were all convinced that the First Poison Master was an old man who had lived for an unknown amount of time.
Germain had no time to think about what was happening; an unprecedented fear overwhelmed his senses.
The number one poison master!
The most terrifying being among all the top-ranked hunters.
Germain turned to run, but he failed.
But it wasn't Ying Zijin who stopped him.
Ying Zijing raised her head, her expression changing slightly.
It has a very strong presence.
He was at least the most imposing person she had ever met.
Fu Yunshen tossed the Grand Elder aside, then reached out and grabbed Jeman's shoulder before turning to look at the girl.
He just heard what Germain shouted.
The First Poison Master.
The fact that the First Poison Master appeared here, at this time, meant that Fu Yunshen could only think of it as being related to the bounty offered by the NOK forum.
He also knew that the mercenaries in the underworld wanted to find the First Poison Master to kill him.
I never expected that they would meet under such circumstances.
"Let's discuss it. I'll give him to me." Fu Yunshen didn't release Jieman, his voice indifferent. "No objections, right?"
Ying Zijing said calmly, "I don't want to discuss it. Get out of my way."
Her phone was taken away by the Patch family, so she was unaware of what was happening on the NOK forum and didn't accept the bounty.
However, killing someone first and then accepting the bounty is the same.
Who would refuse money?
As the head of the Patch family, Germain has a considerable bounty on his head, amounting to $500 million.
Including the elders, the bounty could reach billions of US dollars.
"That's a real shame." Fu Yunshen knocked Germain unconscious and put one hand in his pocket. "He... I can't give him to you."
We also need to save it to buy candy for the kids.
Ying Zijing nodded slowly: "It is a pity, you are worth two billion US dollars."
When facing another hunter who was also ranked number one, Ying Zijing showed absolutely no mercy.
However, these poisons did not harm Devil at all.
"Just poison, it won't work on me." Fu Yunshen took a few steps closer. "As a poison master, don't you have any other skills?"
He had known for a long time that his blood could help ancient martial artists restore their physical essence.
And he himself is immune to all poisons.
Fu Yunshen went for a physical examination, but the results showed no abnormalities.
Even his blood type is just a very common type O, not a rare blood type.
Ying Zijing's eyes turned cold.
She discovered that Devil was indeed very strong after just one exchange.
Fu Yunshen raised his hand and, with lightning speed, swiftly grabbed her wrist.
It was at that moment of contact that Fu Yunshen realized something was wrong.
These are the girl's hands.
It has an unusually soft feel.
And they are familiar with it.
Fu Yunshen paused for a moment, then slowly lowered his head.
I'm still begging for another exciting monthly pass!
