Eternal Life: I Rely on Fortune Points for Improvement-Chapter 38: Assassinate Yuan Tiangang

The token that fell out was the identity token Han Dong gave Jiang Feng.

Lei Laohu and the others present were all Zhenbei Prison officials, and they recognized the token’s authenticity at a glance.

"Why is Commander Han’s token with you?"

Lei Laohu felt something was amiss.

"Commander Han gave it to me."

Jiang Feng picked up the token and slowly stood up to explain.

"Why would she give you the token?"

Chief Hu asked.

"Commander Han said it was a slip of the tongue, and asked Commander Yuan not to take it seriously, to forgive my mistake."

Jiang Feng held the token in his hand, faced Yuan Tiangang, and bowed.

For a moment, everyone’s eyes were on Yuan Tiangang.

"Hahaha, Commander Han is overthinking it. Prison Chief Jiang, come and drink with us! Tonight, we won’t stop until we’re drunk."

Yuan Tiangang paused, then laughed heartily, beckoning to Jiang Feng.

Jiang Feng hurriedly went over.

"Come, let’s have a drink."

Yuan Tiangang poured a drink for Jiang Feng.

"Sir, you’re too kind."

Jiang Feng felt overwhelmed.

"Come, drink!"

Yuan Tiangang held Jiang Feng’s shoulder, clinked cups with him, and drank it all in one go. Jiang Feng did not dare delay, and hastily finished his drink too, though he couldn’t help but sigh inwardly.

If Yuan Tiangang had seen Commander Han’s token and scolded him for daring to use Han Dong’s token to intimidate him, Yuan Tiangang might’ve let him go, truly taking Han Dong’s words as a mere slip.

But this kind of patience and pretense indicated he had taken Han Dong’s words to heart.

The hostility towards him hadn’t diminished in the least.

Seeing Han Dong’s token in his hand even sparked murderous intent.

"Since the misunderstanding is cleared up, let’s drink together!"

Lei Laohu raised his glass and said to everyone.

"Come, drink!"

"Bottoms up!"

Everyone chimed in.

Those who had originally cold-shouldered Jiang Feng all clinked their glasses with him.

But that was all.

In Yuan Tiangang’s presence, they dared not get too close to Jiang Feng.

After dinner.

Everyone gathered at Fengyue Building’s entrance.

They all escorted Yuan Tiangang out.

Inside the sedan chair, Yuan Tiangang pulled up the curtain and said to Jiang Feng, "Prison Chief Jiang, don’t forget to return the token to Commander Han. If you lose it, you’ll be in trouble."

"Rest assured, sir, I’ll return the token to Commander Han shortly."

Jiang Feng bowed.

Yuan Tiangang nodded with satisfaction and was carried away by the bearers, watched by everyone.

Then Chief Hu, Lei Laohu, and another supervisor with the surname Zhao also left by sedan.

The remaining captains also began to part ways.

"Brother Jiang, I’m heading back, see you tomorrow."

Li Minhe, seeing there weren’t many people around, greeted Jiang Feng softly.

Jiang Feng nodded briefly and started walking towards Chaoyang Alley.

When there was no one around.

He used the Monkey Escape Technique, quickly reaching a deserted and dilapidated courtyard, and retrieved a package from behind a statue.

The package contained night clothes.

Also, the Overlord Bow and fifty arrows, along with some disguise equipment.

Jiang Feng quickly changed into the night clothes.

He took out several silver needles and pierced them into his face, making his brows prominent, mouth upturned, looking Earth-packet like.

This disguise method was learned from a miscellaneous book Jiang Feng read.

After trying it a few times, it proved effective.

After changing his appearance, Jiang Feng also put on a black head covering for extra safety.

Then, with the Overlord Bow, arrows on his back, he pursued the direction Yuan Tiangang was heading.

Indeed.

Jiang Feng wanted to kill Yuan Tiangang.

If the token hadn’t fallen out, Yuan Tiangang might not have had murderous intent.

But seeing Han Dong’s token in his possession, Yuan Tiangang’s thoughts varied greatly.

Because the more Han Dong valued Jiang Feng, the more he might be inclined to help Jiang Feng claim credit.

This is also why Jiang Feng hadn’t revealed the token, as long as Yuan Tiangang didn’t go too far tonight, Han Dong’s token would stay hidden.

Unexpectedly, Yuan Tiangang still saw it.

Now that things have reached this point.

Jiang Feng had no choice.

Only striking first would work, couldn’t wait for Yuan Tiangang to kill him!

The bearers carried Yuan Tiangang towards Yuan Mansion.

Yuan Tiangang sat inside the sedan, closed his eyes and activated his qi blood, dispelling all the alcohol’s effects, and when he opened his eyes, he broke into a sweat.

Reflecting on what happened at Fengyue Building.

His expression darkened.

In his heart, he thought: "You think Han Dong protecting you means I won’t make a move? The more Han Dong protects you, the more I want you dead!"

The Young Master’s mysterious death from the Red Lotus Sect, isn’t that suspicious?

Yuan Tiangang knew better than Han Dong.

He clearly remembered the Red Lotus Sect Young Master had three chances to kill him, yet strange occurrences thwarted each.

While recovering at the Imperial Hospital, he pondered the reason.

The explanation given at the time was that the Demon Slaying Skill of the Red Lotus Sect’s Young Master malfunctioned, backfiring, thus allowing him to take advantage and successfully counter-kill.

Initially, he thought that was the truth.

But Han Dong’s words made Yuan Tiangang understand, it might really be related to Jiang Feng.

If Jiang Feng, under Han Dong’s protection, insisted on seeking credit from the Prison Director, with Han Dong testifying for him, his reward might need sharing.

Even if the Court’s reward doesn’t require sharing with Jiang Feng.

The honor could be tarnished.

Therefore, Yuan Tiangang couldn’t allow such a thing.

He couldn’t let a minor Prison Chief affect his reputation, nor shake his authority. Even if Jiang Feng truly concealed his cultivation, he’d still kill him without hesitation, and accelerate the removal.

So, when Yuan Tiangang closed his eyes again, he began planning how to kill Jiang Feng without incurring Han Dong’s suspicion.

"Hmm?"

But then he sensed danger.

"Whoosh!"

He swiftly broke out of the top of the sedan.

An arrow pierced through the sedan, lodging in the shop door at the roadside.

The bearers were startled.

All four abandoned the sedan and ran quickly.

"Who?"

Yuan Tiangang landed on the ground, quickly dodging toward the roadside post.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"

In his evasion, three arrows seemed to shoot simultaneously.

Yuan Tiangang wielded the saber in his hand.

He actually hid a big saber inside the sedan, a cunning veteran indeed.

"Clang clang!"

"Thud!"

He blocked two arrows with the saber.

But the third arrow wasn’t as lucky, striking his arm.

He took advantage to hide behind the post.

Jiang Feng remained silent, drew the bow and noosed the arrow, shooting towards the post.

He was surprised.

Yuan Tiangang’s strength had reached the Early Fourth Grade stage; it appeared he received a Court commendation and perhaps consumed a potent Qi Blood Pill to breakthrough.

But what of Fourth Grade? 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

Mastery of Divine Arrow is enough to kill Yuan Tiangang.

"Boom!"

Jiang Feng drew the Overlord Bow to the full moon state, releasing an arrow.

The arrow pierced through the post, the arrowhead penetrating two centimeters into Yuan Tiangang’s back.

"Ah, why kill me?"

Yuan Tiangang’s expression changed drastically, the opponent’s archery was extraordinary, had reached the state of Human-Arrow Unity.
