Tan Mansion.
In the big mansion with its high walls and beautiful garden, a plump old man in silk clothesced with gold threads sat in his redwood chair.
He took a sip of tea from the teacup in his hands and then put the teacup down on the table.
A maid standing by his side, seeing this, quickly used her handkerchief to wipe the old man''s mouth.
"So how did it go?" the old man, head of the Tan family, asked.
"Master Tan, I''ve made the necessary arrangements as per your instructions," Housekeeper Lee lowered his head and replied.
Master Tan then turned and looked at the dark corner of the room.
In the darkness, a man with a ck mask and dark robes stood.
"Well done. The Dark Lotus sect shall gift your remaining reward as we promised, when you sessfully drive all the vigers away from this vige."
The man in the ck mask said and threw a ck colored bottle at Master Tan.
Master Tan caught the bottle with his hands, thanked the masked man profusely, "Thank you, Dark Envoy. I shall relentlessly aplish what the Dark Lotus sect asks of me."
Whoosh!
In a sh, the Dark Envoy disappeared from the dark corner.
"Master Tan, are you sure these Nine Turn Qi Concentration pills really work?" Housekeeper Lee looked at the bottle in Master Tan''s hand and asked.
"They''re supposed to let anyone without Qi Concentration abilities be capable of doing it.
"The ingredients are very taboo and rare; it''s my ancestor''s good deeds that enabled me to chance upon the Dark Lotus sect.
"As for whether it works, there is only one way to find out..."
Master Tan popped the bottle''s red-colored stopper off, took out a ck-colored pill.
Instantly, the room filled with the smell of something rotten and sweet.
Housekeeper Lee had to try his best to hold it in and not puke.
The maid by the side couldn''t do so and started to vomit.
"Useless piece of shit," Master Tan looked at the maid with disgust and gave her a kick.
The impact made her tumble across the room and faint immediately.
Master Tan then turned his focus back to the pill.
He put the pill into his mouth and swallowed it.@@novelbin@@
Housekeeper Lee turned away as he couldn''t bear to see what would happen next.
A loud scream then erupted from the Tan Mansion.
...
Meanwhile, Lin Fan with his weapons finally arrived at the open field.
A familiar sound rang inside his mind.
[Ding!]
[Detected 5 souls with malevolent intent iing!]
[Terminate 5 persons with malevolent intent for 100 vengeance points.]
100 vengeance points?
Lin Fan was surprised to see this many vengeance points.
This meant that these people waiting to finish him off weren''t ordinary thugs or vagrants.
He quickly activated his Rabbit''s Hearing, pinpointing the location of them hiding in the tall grass.
Every breath they took, every little micro-movements making noises against the grass was audible to Lin Fan.
When Lin Fan knew where they were hiding, Lin Fan shot two arrows to his right side.
nk!
A white sh appeared and one of the arrows got deflected away.
"Argh..."
The other man wasn''t as skillful and got shot in his thigh.
"Damn you!"
Those in ambush stood up and charged at Lin Fan wielding swords in their hands.
Lin Fan shot another arrow at the person nearest to him.
nk!
The person swiped away the arrow with his sword.
Within a passing moment, Lin Fan could see that there was a translucent white-colored force enveloping the sword and then disappearing the next moment.
These men know some form of techniques from one of the sects!
Lin Fan didn''t have time to think; a sword came at him, stabbing him from the left side.
He turned to the left, used the Iron w ability and sliced at the sword.
"What the hell?"
The sword was sliced to pieces.
Before the man could react, Lin Fan immediately side-kicked him.
Sounds of bones cracking echoed in the air, and the man tumbled across the open field, leaving a trail of dust rising from the ground.
[Ding! Congrattions on terminating malevolent intent.]
[Vengeance points + 20.]
[Current Vengeance Points: 50]
Great, one down and four more to go.
By this time, another man hade close to Lin Fan.
Lin Fan drew out his knife and hacked at the maning at his face.
The man''s sword had that white-colored force appear again, and he side-swiped Lin Fan''s knife.
nk.
Lin Fan''s knife broke into two.
The man took the chance and swiped again with his sword at Lin Fan.
Lin Fan suddenly disappeared from the man''s sight.
He squatted down and charged up for his Magnificent Leap.
Lin Fan jumped up and used his knee to strike the man''s head.
St.
The impact was so great the man''s jaws got squashed and blood sttered all over.
[Ding! Congrattions on terminating malevolent intent.]
[Vengeance points + 20.]
[Current Vengeance Points: 70]
Seeing what Lin Fan did, the other three men hesitated to attack.
"What is he? Is he even human?"
"How can an ordinary teenager defeat martial art trainees like us?"
Lin Fan didn''t let them have time to find out.
He used his Magnificent Leap and appeared in front of one of the men.
The man hurriedly used his sword to stab forward.
Lin Fan used both of his hands with Iron w and sliced it into pieces like paper.
He then thrust both of his hands towards the man.
The man crossed his arms trying to block Lin Fan''s hands.
But it was not enough.
Lin Fan''s fingers went through the man''s arms and plunged into the man''s chest.
[Ding! Congrattions on terminating malevolent intent.]
[Vengeance points + 20.]
[Current Vengeance Points: 90]
One of the remaining two men turned and ran.
When he passed by the man shot by Lin Fan earlier, the injured man pulled out the arrow in his thigh and stabbed it into his neck.
"Argh... You..."
The Leader of the Pack ability worked like a charm.
Lin Fan then came and finished off the remaining injured man.
[Ding! Congrattions on terminating malevolent intent.]
[Vengeance points + 40.]
[Current Vengeance Points: 130]
