...

Deep surprise was shown in Far's eyes, even as his upper and lower halves separated, he remained in shock.

He clearly felt that his knee could fiercely crush Qin Fang's head, but the result was that this fatal killer move couldn't even touch Qin Fang at all.

More precisely, the once clear body of Qin Fang shattered like a dream-like mirage when Far's attack came.

And at this moment, Far felt a chilling killing intent approaching swiftly, almost making it impossible for him to resist.

He then felt intense pain at his waist, spreading to every part of his body… As an assassin whose hands have been stained with countless people's blood, he naturally knew what such pain signified.

But, no matter how surprised he was now, it was meaningless, as Qin Fang's attack caused him such heavy damage. He clearly knew there was no saving his life!

However, before his consciousness completely faded, one puzzling question lingered in his mind… "Why didn't his good buddy, sniper Hori, fire to support him?"

Having been the most tacit partners, Far and Hori had successfully coordinated numerous times, reacting instantly to even the slightest gesture.

In such dangerous times, the sniper would immediately use his sniper rifle to interrupt the target's attack, neutralizing the threat before it materialized.

Yet, this time, Far was directly sliced in two by Qin Fang, but Hori's gun remained silent…

If Qin Fang's move earlier was so bizarre as to fool Far, and even deceive Hori from afar, without time to react, this trick might still be understandable.

But now, despite Far being split, Hori's gun has not fired, which is quite problematic!

Unfortunately, Far is no longer able to know the truth. The serious injury is fatal, his internal organs scattered everywhere, blood staining the ground, dying helplessly.

As for Far's good buddy, good partner Hori, it wasn't because he didn't want to help Far, he himself was in dire straits just like a clay Buddha crossing the river, unable to save himself.

Though Hori is a sniper, hiding in the shadows, theoretically very safe, even if those young experts from Tianchi Sect come to hunt him, he had good buddy Far to kill them all.

Just as they were preparing to jointly hunt the target Qin Fang, Far was restrained by Qin Fang, and he himself unexpectedly found himself in an even more perilous situation!

Precisely when Hori was about to aim at Qin Fang, intending to seize the moment as Far attacked to ensure Qin Fang was shot dead, another person quietly crept up next to him.

Hori is a sniper, with remarkable gunmanship, ranking among the top in the Underground World's numerous shooting experts.

However, in terms of combat skills, he falls short. If Far's combat skill is equivalent to master level late stage, even peak, then Hori's is barely even approaching master level.

And with such poor combat skills, what happens when facing a master level peak expert?

It's likely similar to when Far barely killed those young experts from Tianchi Sect!

Hori was similarly taken down, and it was Qin Fang's aide, Killer Black Night, namely Ji Xiang, who acted!

Ji Xiang is extremely skilled, also a Five-Star Assassin in the Assassin's Alliance, on par with the Shadow Viper duo of Far and Hori.

In a one-on-two situation, Ji Xiang might be slightly weaker, as their coordinated attacks are overwhelmingly sharp, having taken down numerous experts.

But in a one-on-one situation, whether against Far or Hori, Ji Xiang can easily defeat the opponent…

This time, while Hori was hiding in the shadows, Ji Xiang was similarly hidden, even more discreetly.

Qin Fang needed Ji Xiang to merely restrain Hori; Qin Fang would use that brief time to eliminate Far and then pursue Hori.

However, Ji Xiang evidently wanted to avoid trouble, stealthily attacking Hori, leaving him without any decent resistance, and Hori fell under Ji Xiang's blade.

Thus, the legendary assassin duo, Shadow Viper, met their end in the Underground World, dying shamefully in Dragon Country, Jiangzhou, in the dim corner of an obscure underground parking lot…

Hori also fell, his body dragged out of the darkness by Ji Xiang, casually thrown beside Far, honoring the buddy duo, at least they died together.

"With the Shadow Viper eliminated, I believe the remaining assassins will behave more."

Ji Xiang clapped his hands, speaking with a bit of excitement.

Although this time they gained the upper hand through clever tactics, being able to take down such a powerful team like the Shadow Viper is indeed something to be pleased about.

Especially the cooperation between him and Qin Fang was exceptionally seamless, despite not having any prior arrangements or plans, relying entirely on mutual understanding and trust.

When Qin Fang first caught the attention of the experts from the Tianchi Sect, Ji Xiang had already known. He could have stepped in to help Qin Fang.

However, he ultimately refrained, knowing that Qin Fang could handle these individuals; his involvement would've made little difference, other than possibly saving some time.

The primary reason he held back was that he had discovered the Shadow Viper lurking in the shadows.

At first, he didn't recognize the identities of these two people, as assassins always have mysterious appearances; once exposed, countless individuals would be hunting them... There are so many experts in the underground world, and not to mention Five-Star Assassins, even Six-Star or Seven-Star Assassins dare not claim they can always escape unscathed.

In the historical records of the Assassin's Alliance, there was once a Nine-Star Assassin, practically one of the pinnacle experts in the underground world.

Yet, his identity was completely exposed, leading to his family and friends all being murdered by enemies, and he himself, while preparing for revenge, was blown to pieces by a super-heavyweight bomb.

A master with such terrifying strength, yet meeting his end this way, illustrates how dangerous the assassin's trade can be.

Although Ji Xiang did not initially recognize their identities, when Hori fired a shot killing the Tianchi Sect elder, and later Far took action to kill several young experts of the Tianchi Sect attempting to besiege Hori, he finally knew who they were.

Things then became simpler; when Far believed he could kill Qin Fang with the sniper support from Hori and took action in excitement, Ji Xiang had quietly approached Hori from behind.

As assassins of the same level, Black Night was not much inferior to the Shadow Viper, and in terms of single combat capabilities, Black Night Ji Xiang was much stronger.

At that moment, Hori was like a lamb to the slaughter; before he could make a move against Qin Fang, Ji Xiang's knife was already discreetly at Hori's throat.

Hori wanted to struggle, but Ji Xiang was no ordinary assassin. He was also considered a martial arts expert, having practiced Muay Thai for many years, possessing formidable strength, perhaps slightly weaker than someone like the human tank Far, but much stronger than the sniper Hori.

If even so, Hori could escape, Ji Xiang wouldn't have the face to continue in this line of work!

"I hope so..."

Qin Fang nodded in a nonchalant manner.

The number of assassins coming over to Jiangzhou attempting to kill Qin Fang was indeed not small. The Shadow Viper was certainly top-notch but didn't mean they were the only ones. Who knows if there are other experts lurking?

"I'm leaving first; you take care of this place and make sure not to leave any traces."

Having eliminated the experts from the Tianchi Sect and erased a formidable enemy like the Shadow Viper, Qin Fang's pressure lessened considerably. Initially, he should have been happy about it, but for some reason, he still felt something was amiss.

Qin Fang did not stay longer and entrusted the cleanup to Ji Xiang, who was quite experienced in handling such matters.

Simultaneously, Qin Fang felt uneasy, worried something might happen.

However, there were very few people in Jiangzhou he needed to worry about; it seemed that only Chu Yunxuan came to mind. After leaving the parking lot, Qin Fang immediately called Chu Yunxuan.

But soon, Qin Fang's face turned grim. He dialed repeatedly, but Chu Yunxuan never answered...

"Could it be that something happened to Yunxuan?"

A terrible thought surfaced in Qin Fang's mind, and he even felt as if he had been set up by someone.

Ordinarily, Chu Yunxuan seldom left the hotel alone; even when she did, she was usually with Qin Fang. With Qin Fang by her side, it was hard for anyone to target her.

But today was different; after separating from Qin Fang, Chu Yunxuan had driven off by herself... Although the distance from where they were to her hotel was not far, it was still three to five kilometers away.

Given the lousy traffic in Jiangzhou Urban Area, a car journey of three to five kilometers is more than enough for something to happen! (To be continued.
