The Calm Before the Storm

“Boom!”

A muffled sound.

Zhengjun Duncan's body trembled, blood gushed out of his seven orifices, and he instantly collapsed to the ground.

No breath at all.

Zhengjun Duncan died. After his physical strength was exhausted, he chose to end his life in the most dignified way.

This scene shocked all these killers who were usually on the edge of a knife and licked blood.

Committing suicide just like that is not something that most people can do.

Even ants steal food, let alone humans?

"This guy is really ruthless!"

The killer leader frowned, looking a little ugly.

If the general was still alive, he would have no way to replace him now that he is dead.

If he had known this would happen, he would have taken action himself and destroyed him first.

"Boss, what should we do now?" asked a killer.

"You guys clean up the scene, I'll take the body away first."

After leaving a few words, the killer leader grabbed Zhengjun Duncan's body, got in the car and left.

At this moment, in a luxurious private residence.

General Long Wei and the city guard commander were drinking tea and chatting, waiting for the results.

"General, it's been so long, why is there still no news from your people? Have you failed?" The city guard commander said calmly.

"impossible!"

General Long Wei rejected it outright: "The assassins I have are all elites among elites, and some of them are martial arts masters. It is easy for them to deal with two minions."

This group of elite killers were his trump cards, which he never used lightly. However, whenever they were sent out to carry out missions, they were always successful, with no precedent of failure.

"If you say so, then I feel relieved." The city guard general breathed a sigh of relief.

If Zhengjun Duncan escapes, it will be trouble.

"You don't have to worry about my people. Zhengjun Duncan will definitely be caught. The question is, can you completely erase all traces?" General Long Wei asked back.

"General, the law enforcement team in West Lucozia King City are all my trusted confidants. I have already informed them that the incident tonight will not be leaked at all. After dawn, Zhengjun Duncan will disappear from the world and no one will know. They can't find any clues." The city guard general smiled confidently.

"That's good." General Long Wei nodded with satisfaction: "Leave the torture to me, and leave the finishing touches to you. We each have our own responsibilities."

"Then I wish us a pleasant cooperation." The city guard general raised the teacup, then drank it all in one gulp.

Just as the two were chatting, there was a sudden knock on the door.

"Go in." General Long Wei responded.

Soon, the door was pushed open.

The leader of the assassins came in first, followed by two subordinates.

Two people, one in front and one behind, carried the stretcher.

On the stretcher was a corpse covered with a white cloth.

"How is it? Has the person been caught?" General Long Wei asked calmly.

"Reporting to the general, the target committed suicide and we only brought back a corpse." The assassin leader said concisely.

"What? Dead?"

Hearing this, General Long Wei jumped up from his seat and angrily said, "What are you doing, you bunch of rubbish? Didn't I specifically tell you to leave someone alive? Why did you bring this to me?" A dead body?!"

"I have failed to do my job well, please punish me, General!"

The leader of the assassins immediately knelt on the ground and begged for forgiveness.

"You useless thing, I'm going to kill you!"

General Long Wei drew his sword and was about to strike, but the city guard general raised his hand to stop him: "General, please be patient. No one expected Zhengjun Duncan to choose to commit suicide. Now that the matter is done, it is useless to blame the subordinates. Let's think about how to deal with it. Let’s take care of the aftermath.”

"snort!"

General Long Wei sheathed his sword and shouted with a cold face, "You can escape death, but you can't escape punishment. Go down and receive eighty military sticks!"

"Thank you, General, for the reward!"

The leader of the assassins immediately prostrated himself.

Although being beaten with eighty military sticks would keep me out of bed for half a month, it was better than losing my head.

"etc!"

The assassin leader was about to leave when he was stopped by General Long Wei: "Let me ask you, is there anyone left alive at the scene? Have all the traces been cleaned up?"

"General, there are no survivors. We are now cleaning up." The leader of the assassins lowered his head and said.

"Remember! Make sure to clean it up thoroughly and not leave any traces, otherwise you will be beheaded!" General Long Wei shouted.

"yes!"

The assassin leader responded and turned to leave.

The body on the stretcher lay quietly in the living room.

General Long Wei stepped forward, lifted the white cloth and saw a slightly ferocious face.

Blood was flowing from all seven orifices, his body was filled with evil spirit, and he died with his eyes open.

"Boy! Weren't you very arrogant before? Why are you silent now?"

"Dare to go against me, this is what will happen to you!"

General Long Wei laughed grimly, then suddenly drew his sword and chopped off Zhengjun Duncan's head.

Then kick it away like a football.

The city guard commander behind him frowned slightly, but quickly returned to normal.

Zhengjun Duncan's suicide disrupted all their plans.

Now not only did they fail to extract any useful information, but they also got themselves into trouble.

But now that it has been done, there is no turning back.

As long as they take care of the beginning and the end, they believe there won't be any trouble. - Ton

Elder Whitebone

Li Juntang knew the white figure was powerful, but he hadn’t expected it to be this powerful. In just a matter of minutes, the figure had devoured the overwhelming red mist using a technique like a divine dragon drawing in water, leaving not a trace behind. Such divine ability was far beyond anything he could imagine. Seeing it with his own eyes was far more shocking than anything he’d heard. Once the red mist vanished, the white figure waved a hand, and the energy vortex quickly dissipated. A blood-red bead slowly floated down from high above and finally landed in the white figure’s palm. Seeing the opportunity was ripe, Li Juntang immediately channeled his true qi and shouted, “You have dispersed the poisonous mist with divine powers and saved the entire city from disaster. I, Li Juntang, thank you on behalf of the people of this city. May I have the honor of meeting you face to face to express our gratitude properly?” This statement was skillfully crafted --- first, p...

Breaking The Siege

“Boom!!” A thunderous crash shook the earth. The moment the white figure landed, golden gales erupted from around him. The zombies that had rushed close were instantly shattered, as if colliding with an invisible barrier. Their grayish bodies exploded into fragments. Thick blackish-brown corpse fluid splattered onto the stone bricks, releasing foul-smelling steam that coiled into the air. “It’s that peerless master!” Someone shouted from within the inner gate fortress, and the once-terrified citizens suddenly erupted in thunderous cheers. When the red mist crisis had hit Lincheng, they had seen it with their own eyes --- a divine figure in white had absorbed the entire mist with unfathomable powers, saving the city from destruction. Now, with zombies besieging their ancient stronghold, seeing that familiar white figure again was like witnessing the return of their savior. “He’s finally here!” Li Guanglong, gripping his bloodstained saber, let out a long sigh of reli...

Tsunami

Li Wenxing followed Qian Jin’s line of sight and saw a ball of white light speeding across the sky in the distance. Wherever the light passed, it sliced a long trail through the clouds , splitting even the thickest formations clean in half. In just two breaths, the white light had already arrived above the port, bringing with it a howling gale that rocked their helicopter violently. Once the winds settled, Li Wenxing looked up --- and saw a man in white robes . The two weren’t far apart --- just about two hundred meters. With Li Wenxing’s eyesight, he should’ve been able to clearly make out the man’s face. But strangely, no matter how hard he looked, he couldn’t see his features at all . It was as if there was a mist obscuring the man’s face --- like something stood between them, clouding his vision. “Uncle Qian, can you see that peerless expert’s face clearly?” Li Wenxing asked Qian Jin. “No, it’s completely concealed. He must be deliberately hiding his appearance,”...
