Chapter 846: A Fiasco
The waiter struggled desperately, but in his hand, he was like a helpless chick, unable to break free.
A whole bottle of wine was poured down.
Yang Qi drifted back and looked at the waiter, saying, "Is it delicious? Hurry up and take the antidote, or you’ll be dead soon."
"You! What do you mean?"
The waiter frowned and questioned.
"Your disguise technique is indeed exquisite, but unfortunately, a person’s aura is hard to change. At the very least, you couldn’t do it. From the moment you came in, I already sensed the killing aura that inadvertently emanated from you."
Yang Qi smiled and said, "Moreover, your partner already sold you out without you even realizing it. Why did I come alone today? It’s precisely to give you the chance to strike here.
If there were more people, it might scare you off, and that would be no fun."
"Clap, clap!"
Then, he clapped his hands.
Someone dashed in from outside.
It was none other than the Undying Barbarian King.
After the Su Mountain journey.
Yang Qi had advanced to the Body Tempering Stage Peak.
And the Undying Barbarian King had also reached the Overlord Peak.
Not just because he endured a life-and-death battle, but also because he consumed a five-hundred-year-old Nine-section Calamus Pill.
This Su Mountain operation led to a significant boost in the overall strength of the Star Shining Society’s core members.
Although Wang Zhenren and Yi Yang Zhenren’s realms didn’t break through, they had reached a very high level.
At the very least, they could buy a spot within the top ten of the Martial Arts Overlord List.
So, Yang Qi’s Immortal Cultivation didn’t just enhance himself; those Elixirs also spurred progress among those around him.
The Undying Barbarian King charged toward the assassin as soon as he entered.
The assassin tried to escape, but the problem was, this compartment had no windows, selected specifically by Yang Qi.
Dining here meant the lights had to be on.
The assassin could only rush towards the Undying Barbarian King, hoping to break through.
There were two people here now, and she knew defeating them was difficult.
So she exerted her full force against the Undying Barbarian King; as long as there was a gap, she could rush out.
Bang!
However, upon contact, she realized she was naïve.
The Undying Barbarian King’s power was terrifyingly immense.
This punch was truly domineering.
Though it felt like his overall combat power was inferior to hers, his innate divine strength left her troubled.
The assassin’s face was grim, her hand continuously stabbing with a dagger.
But the Undying Barbarian King, bleeding, showed no fear or anxiety.
To him, the more injured, the stronger he became; the more weakened, the stronger he grew.
This was the terrifying aspect of the Undying Divine Technique.
Bang!
Bang!
The assassin exchanged over a dozen moves with the Undying Barbarian King, and the Barbarian King was already scarred with poisons on those wounds.
However, much to the assassin’s despair, not only did the Barbarian King stand firm, but he also grew stronger.
Originally, his combat power was below hers, but now he had surpassed her.
In terms of both speed and strength, he began to outmatch her.
Facing such a monster truly rendered her panicked.
Bang!
Finally, the Undying Barbarian King hit the assassin once.
But that one hit equaled the other’s dozen attacks.
The assassin was slammed flying, crashing into the wall, feeling completely dazed, unable to distinguish direction.
Close combat was never her forte.
And now confronted with the fearless Undying Barbarian King, her luck was truly terrible.
The Undying Barbarian King grabbed her hair and lifted her up, tearing off the mask on her face, revealing her real appearance.
"Boss, you were right, this person looks exactly like the captured one."
The Undying Barbarian King was astounded.
Though he had seen many twins, such likeness was truly unprecedented.
This seemed like they were carved from the same mold.
"Deal with it!"
Yang Qi waved his hand and said, "Also, inform the Lei Tingjun, through media, announce the death news of the two assassins and their photos. I want the Blood Lotus Sect to know Jingnan Prefecture belongs to our Star Shining Society. Whoever dares to cause chaos in Jingnan will pay a heavy price."
"Yes!"
The Undying Barbarian King carried the assassin away.
Yang Qi continued sitting there dining and ordered another bottle of wine because that bottle had been poisoned by the assassin.
Soon, news was published in newspapers, online, and constantly re-shared by self-media.
Almost everyone knew the assassin Twin Stars ranked within the top thirty of the Martial Arts Overlord List had died miserably in Thunder City.
In no time, the fame of Star Shining Society resounded throughout the Dragon Country.
Almost everyone knew Star Shining Society dared to provoke even the Blood Lotus Sect, and even eliminated the top-tier assassins among Blood Lotus Sect’s Overlord-level assassins.
It all happened in just one night.
This Star Shining Society, isn’t it terrifyingly powerful?
Blood Lotus Sect probably saw the report too, disgruntled, they dispatched new assassins.
This time, the assassin ranked even higher than Twin Stars, positioned at twenty-four on the Martial Arts Overlord List.
But unfortunately, this person lasted less than an hour after entering Thunder City before being annihilated.
A few hours later, news reported.
By then, Blood Lotus Sect genuinely became fearful.
Peak Overlord-level assassins represent the best among silver medalists.
Yet, unexpected losses occurred consecutively.
Of course, they could deploy a gold medalist assassin.
But even Blood Lotus Sect wouldn’t want to take that risk.
A gold medalist assassin is a Martial Spirit-level expert.
Losing one would be troublesome.
Moreover, the money offered by the Wu Family wasn’t nearly enough for a gold medalist assassin to act.
News reached the Wu Family.
Wu Canghai fumed in anger: "What useless fools, what kind of incompetent assassins can’t even kill a mere Yang Qi, and they won’t refund the money? Based on what?"
"Indeed, we overestimated those assassins. What Twin Stars, they’re all useless."
Wu Heng was also pale with anger.
To kill Yang Qi, they spared no expense, spending ten billion.
Only with ten billion could they hire an assassin at the Peak Overlord-level.
Now, that money was essentially flushed down the drain.
The target wasn’t eliminated, and the money couldn’t be recuperated.
Because according to Blood Lotus Sect’s rules, whether successful or not, if the assassin did not escape, the money wasn’t refunded.
With two top-tier silver medalist assassins dead from Blood Lotus Sect, there’s no way they’d refund the money.
Wu Heng had requested for a gold medalist assassin.
However, gold medalists demanded even more money.
Directly pricing it at a hundred billion Dragon Coins.
This was extortion indeed.
It’s just about killing one person, requesting a hundred billion?
Isn’t that insane?
"Damn it, is there truly no one who can finish off that Yang Qi? He can’t be that strong, could someone be aiding him?"
Wu Heng pondered and said.
"Quite likely, the boss of Star Shining Society must’ve intervened."
Wu Canghai ground his teeth, saying, "Yang Qi is his disciple; he surely wouldn’t watch Yang Qi die."
