Unrivaled Soldier in the City-Chapter 118 Assassin Tian Wei
At this time, Lin Kuang had already returned to the Liu Family’s villa, where the Witch seemed particularly excited about the next day’s gathering. She dragged Liu Shilin around incessantly, asking whether she should go for an elegant or a wild look. Her questions were so relentless that Lin Kuang started to feel a bit depressed. The Witch had never seemed to care about what she wore, but for tomorrow’s gathering, she was picking and choosing left and right. It seemed this was no ordinary event.
Could it be that this girl likes someone and wants to make an impression at the gathering? For some reason, that thought makes me a little upset... But then again, it has nothing to do with me. I’ll just forget it.
Back in his own room, Lin Kuang changed his clothes and took a bath before lying down on the bed. It wasn’t long before he fell into a deep sleep. He seemed to fall asleep very quickly.
He didn’t know how long he had slept when his eyes suddenly snapped open, a sharp gleam flashing through his deep-set eyes. Outside, the sky was filled with stars. He checked the time; it was already one in the morning.
Someone’s here at this hour? TSK, TSK... An assassin?
The next moment, Lin Kuang changed into sportswear and floated out of his room. He moved like a ghost; his feet made no sound as they touched the ground, as if a wisp of cotton had fallen to the floor. Within seconds, he reached the second floor and headed straight for the source of the noise. Gliding over, he held his breath and concealed himself behind a door.
Just as he stopped, the door beside him opened soundlessly. A dark figure appeared in the doorway. The man was about 1.8 meters tall and shrouded in black clothing, including a hood that completely obscured his face.
So it really is an assassin! Who sent him? Ye Tiannan? Or maybe Chu Zhongtian?
The next moment, Lin Kuang struck, launching a fist directly at the assassin’s back. Having just stepped out of the room, the assassin never expected someone to be waiting for him. When he felt the vicious gust of wind from behind, he instantly knew something was wrong.
He dodged with incredible speed, tumbling awkwardly to the ground and rolling twice to evade Lin Kuang’s punch.
Seeing this, Lin Kuang was slightly surprised. Even though I didn’t use my full strength, it should be nearly impossible for an average expert to dodge that blow. This assassin looks disheveled, but he isn’t substantially harmed. He’s no simple character!
"Here to kill me?" Lin Kuang asked with a smile, watching the assassin quickly get to his feet.
The assassin, Tian Wei, was deeply shaken. I’m not just any assassin; I’m the top assassin from Dark Blood in the East Sea! In the entire Assassin World, Dark Blood is a well-known organization, and I’m ranked near the top of the Killer List. This mission wasn’t originally mine; I only took it because the assigned assassin had an emergency and couldn’t get away. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have bothered with a small job worth only a few million. How could I, Tian Wei, be hired for less than tens of millions? But I never expected the target of this assassination to be so terrifyingly skilled! This is definitely no ordinary mercenary!
Hearing Lin Kuang’s words, Tian Wei remained silent, turned, and quickly tried to leave.
Seeing this, Lin Kuang let out a cold chuckle. "Trying to leave? This isn’t your backyard. You can’t just come and go as you please!"
With that, Lin Kuang’s figure flickered as he gave chase. Both men were incredibly fast, one chasing the other as they rushed out the main doors of the hall. Tian Wei didn’t stop. On the contrary, his speed increased once he was outside, and he moved like a gust of wind.
The two of them leaped over the courtyard wall and dashed toward the man-made forest on the other side. Although the forest was artificial, it was quite large. Tian Wei excelled at jungle warfare; he had lured Lin Kuang here because he wasn’t confident he could kill him back inside the villa.
"So your goal was to lure me here?" Lin Kuang asked flatly, looking at the surrounding trees.
Hearing this, Tian Wei’s pupils shrank. "You really aren’t just a simple mercenary!"
"Huh? A mercenary? You think I’m a mercenary? Who told you that? Your employer?" Lin Kuang asked with a hint of bemusement. I’ve always been a loner. When did I get the identity of a mercenary?
"What? You’re not?" Tian Wei asked again.
"Since you’ve already guessed, why bother asking? Are you trying to waste time?" Lin Kuang said indifferently.
"Fine. No matter who you are, I’ve accepted this mission, which means you must die!" Tian Wei declared.
With that, he struck, throwing a punch at Lin Kuang’s chest. Lin Kuang sidestepped, and the punch missed its mark. Just then, a dagger with a cold gleam appeared in Tian Wei’s palm, its sharp blade stabbing straight for Lin Kuang’s heart.
Lin Kuang was somewhat surprised. I didn’t expect him to have a dagger hidden up his sleeve! Fortunately, he was fast enough to dodge the attack in time, avoiding the gleaming blade.
"Not bad. You’re an assassin from Dark Blood, aren’t you?" Lin Kuang asked with a smile, having dodged the strike.
Tian Wei was stunned by his words. How does he know I’m from Dark Blood?
"You have good skills, but your intelligence is too low," Lin Kuang said with disdain. "It seems Dark Blood is the only major domestic assassin organization. Someone as skilled as you would be considered a master among assassins. Putting those two things together, even a fool could figure out you’re from Dark Blood."
Hearing this, Tian Wei’s face flushed red under his hood, his heart burning with a rage ignited by Lin Kuang’s words.
"So what if you know? Today, you will die!" Tian Wei shouted, attacking again as the gleaming dagger stabbed toward Lin Kuang’s throat.
The strike was fast, ruthless, and precise, perfectly embodying the essence of the Art of Killing. Even Lin Kuang nodded in appreciation. "Indeed, that’s impressive strength. But you’re still going to die."
Saying this, Lin Kuang also moved. His body flashed like lightning, instantly evading Tian Wei’s attack. When he reappeared, he was already behind Tian Wei.
Lin Kuang threw a punch. The terrifying power generated a cracking sonic boom, and the very air rippled in waves. His fierce fist shot straight for Tian Wei’s back.
