Finally, twelve scary assassins gathered at an empty land outside of the city. Ken, Neil, Ivan, and the others also went over.“Haha, are you guys looking down at us?” An old man glanced at the killers around them and started laughing coldly. “Who are you guys trying to kill? Even I, the second on the killer list, can’t do it. Why do you need to get so many people here? You even employ the killer who’s first on the killer list?”They obviously felt that the people in front of them were too over the top. They have killed many people and some of them were real masters. However, most of the time, these assassins worked alone and this was the first time so many important assassins from the killer list gathered at the same place.The man who held the third place also started smiling coldly. “Yes, I also wonder why do you need so many masters here. Haha, with all of us here, it wouldn’t be a problem for us to kill a master who is as strong as a seven or eight-stars King of War, right?”“
One of the female assassins frowned and hesitated.They thought that they were being asked to kill a slightly strong King of War. If that was the case, she would not be as pressured about it.They had no idea that these three young masters were asking them to kill Fane, the person who caused a stir in the entire Middle Province and country.“Why? You guys have not fought him yet. Are you all unconfident?” Ken was startled when he saw how these people reacted.He glanced at the old man who was second on the killer list and said, “Didn’t you say that nobody else would be an issue as long as it’s not a God of War? Why do you guys act like this when you hear that it’s Fane…”The old man started smiling bitterly. “Brother, we know this person’s combat power very well. However, he’s not a God of War or a King of War to our knowledge, so I alone would be sufficient to kill him. With that said, do you know what I’m afraid of?” The old man paused before continuing. “If this young man could
”Yes, that would be the best option we have!” The man who was number one on the killer list also nodded in agreement!Ivan and the others felt what the other party said made sense too.After all, if they really angered several Gods of War, none of them would be able to run away even if these assassins have a way to escape.Finally, Ivan nodded. “This would work. Let us think of a way to lure Fane out. However, you need to promise us that you will succeed this time! We won’t accept any failures!”“Haha, don’t you worry. This guy is not a God of War, what’s there to be afraid of? Do you think that I’m some useless killer?” The old man, who was second on the list, felt that what Ivan said was quite funny and laughed out loudly.“That’s right. This guy must have quite a strong combat ability for being able to survive on the battlefield for five years. However, his main position is a doctor, right? So, we don’t need to be afraid of anything. You guys must have overestimated this person
”Where is this place that you are talking about?” The eyes of Ivan and the others lightened up and they quickly asked.The old man smiled before saying, “Walking toward this direction and in the middle of that forest, there’s a lake. There’s a small island in the middle of the lake and there’s only a small wooden bridge that links to that island. Haha, isn’t Fane’s death guaranteed if he goes to that island? As long as somebody guards the entrance to the bridge, it’s impossible for him to escape even if he realizes that something is wrong!”“Alright, this place is a really good location. I don’t think that we need to enter the city now. Let’s rest and wait here. We’ll hide on the island after Fane leaves the city. Killing him would be a piece of cake then. Apart from that, if we didn’t enter the city, the Gods of War wouldn’t be able to find anything even if Fane died!” The old man, second on the list, nodded in satisfaction.“Alright, this is not an issue. How about this, we’ll try
”Haha, you’re a man of courage!” Neil laughed. He thought about the situation and said again. “By the way, it wouldn’t be easy to lure Fane out. Why would he believe in us without a probable cause?”Ken also nodded. “All of us here have some sort of dispute with Fane. Right now, this guy definitely hates us and we can’t just ask him out for tea, right?”Ivan started frowning when he heard what both Ken and Neil said. This was definitely a troublesome task. Fane was a smart person, why would he believe in them without a good excuse?He started thinking about it and soon his eyes lit up. “There is a way but we need to continue gathering money for it!”“What?!” Ken and Neil were speechless when they heard that they needed to gather money again. They spent a lot of effort to come up with the previous two hundred million and it would be very difficult for them to gather money again now.“How much? We wouldn’t be able to do anything if it’s a huge sum! Fane is not a womanizer or we coul
”They’re looking for me?” Fane frowned. Why did they not come over here if they were looking for him? Why act mysterious when he had already reached the opposite street?Although he wondered what was going on, Fane still nodded and walked over.Soon, Fane reached the second floor of the Confidante Cafe.Just as he reached the second floor, he discovered several men in black suits standing in a row energetically.One of them walked forward and bowed slightly when they saw Fane. “Young Master Fane, please come in. We’ve been waiting for you for some time!”“Young Master Fane?” Fane’s face darkened. After pausing for a moment, he followed behind the other party and walked toward the private room in front of them.The entire second floor was obviously booked by the other party and apart from the person in this room, there was nobody else there.Fane opened the door and entered the private room. An old man with white hair sat there cross-legged.The old man immediately stood up and
After Fane left, a young beauty in a white dress walked over from the opposite room.“Miss, what should we do? You’ve heard the conversation we had just now. It would be very difficult to persuade the young master!” The old man immediately saluted and said to the young lady in front of him.The young lady smiled calmly. “That is quite normal. After all, he and his mother were kicked out after they were discovered. After so many years, he has never received any care from the Woods family. It might be better if we found him earlier!” The young lady smiled bitterly before continuing. “My attitude wouldn’t be any better if I was in his position and knew that my family only came looking for me after they knew that I became the exclusive doctor of the Nine Great Gods of War!”The old man also nodded and said, “However, we haven’t finished what we wanted to say before he left. Sigh, we can’t just give up like this! Why don’t we visit his family and explain everything to them?!”The young
The middle-aged man immediately nodded.“Haha, such alacrity. There was someone who tried to negotiate the price previously. We don’t accept any negotiation!” Fiona was happy and immediately passed a piece of paper to the man. “Here are the details of the bank account and you can make the transfer. Don’t you worry, my son-in-law is definitely certain. If he can’t cure your wife, he would definitely return this money to you!”The other party quickly made the transfer and drove Fane toward outside of the city.“We’re not staying in the Middle Province?” Fane was stunned and asked the man driving the car when he saw that they were leaving the city.“Haha, miracle-working doctor Fane, don’t you worry. We’ll still be in the Middle Province. It's just that both me and my wife like some quiet time to ourselves so we built a small hut in a remote area outside of the city. We like to fish by the lake when we’re free!” The man explained happily.Soon, the man parked his car in front of a fo
There was a heavy rumbling as the door slowly opened. A boundless sense of energy seemed to come from it.A few of them looked inside. Other than the green light, they could see nothing. The light completely obscured their sight. If they wanted to look inside, they would have to step in themselves.On the way there, Fane had already talked to Lourain about it. Lourain wanted to see what the legendary Valley of Enlightenment was like. That was why Fane asked for two spots.The three of them exchanged looks with each other, and they did not hesitate to step forward together, entering the door.The power of distorting space suddenly pulled the three of them in. The space around them started to spin rapidly. They did not know how much time passed, but it felt like a whole century before the space slowed down in front of them. Then, the sense of weightlessness disappeared as their feet landed on solid ground.The three of them had not been sent to different locations and arrived at the
Zayne scoffed, "Alright then, how do you want to work together?"He wanted to see what Fane was trying to do.Fane did not waste any time, "Both of us have all three keys, and we can open the door. Ten people can enter the door anyway. I just need two of those spots.Zayne looked at Fane meaningfully, "You sure know quite a bit."Fane even knew that only ten people would be allowed through. He seemed to have done his homework.Zayne took out his purple key from his storage ring. At that moment, all three keys were there. As long as all the keys were placed together, the gateway to the Valley of Enlightenment would open."If you only need two spots, then I don't mind working with you," Zayne looked at Fane meaningfully, but he quickly added, "However, make sure you don't cause any trouble during the important moments."Fane smiled before he said, "I've always been someone who keeps to my word. I'm more worried that you'll cause me trouble instead. There are many geniuses in the V
The two of them knew what that meant. Their eyes met, and worry was evident in their eyes."Is it Fane again?" Zayne said with a frown. At that moment, the first name that popped up in his head was Fane.Only Fane would truly be a big problem for them. Seymour's expression turned sour. He suddenly felt like Fane seemed to be his Achilles heel. Fane could pop out at any time and put him in a difficult spot."That's right! It's me!" At that moment, a voice was heard from afar. The two of them looked in the direction of the voice and saw five figures appearing in the air.This time, Fane did not have a disguise on. He was facing everyone with his real face."It really is you!" Zayne's face completely soured at that moment. Even if they were meeting for the first time, he was already incredibly sensitive to Fane's name.Nothing good ever happened when Fane was mentioned and Fane had actually appeared in front of him."How dare you!" Seymour shouted angrily!He walked forward to sta
When Shin and the others saw that, they were speechless. That person who had looked down on them was completely bound and on the ground at that moment. He looked pathetic.Fane quickly walked toward Warren, reaching out to pull off the mask to reveal his face.Fane controlled his energy, reducing the destructive power in Warren's soul. After the pain diminished, Warren slowly woke up.He looked up and saw the one person he never wanted to see in his life. He lost his voice as he said, "Fane?! It's you!" He almost bit his tongue as he spoke.Fane smiled and nodded slightly, "Yes. It’s me.""No wonder, so it's you! Where's Presti then?" Warren looked up and said.Fane raised an eyebrow and shot an incredulous look at Warren. Warren immediately understood what happened, and his whole face turned pale, "He's dead!"Fane nodded. There was nothing much to hide. Warren gulped, suddenly feeling like his thoughts from earlier were an absolute joke at that moment. He had even been think
After seeing that, there was a surprised look on Warren's face. However, he quickly pushed back that surprise. Even if that man was skilled, he would just be an above-average warrior. Above-average warriors were like paper to him!"Brat, it looks like you have some skill. However, that means nothing in front of me. I'll show you right now what a warrior at the peak is!"Right after he said that, he circulated his true energy around his feet. Red energy started to frantically blow away the dust on the ground. He lunged into the air incredibly fast.Fane raised an eyebrow before he started to form seals with his hands. Countless seals danced around in the air, and a chain appeared.That chain looked like a black dragon as it danced in the air.Warren scoffed in disdain. It was just a petty trick from an above-average warrior in his eyes. That chain would shatter in just one blow.He did not even bother thinking about it as he raised the sword in his hand. A silver ray of light quic
He leaped forward and landed in front of those four. Fane had already noticed Warren a while ago, but Fane relaxed when he saw Warren was alone. If it was just one person, then there was nothing to worry about!"Presti really is a piece of trash. He couldn't even get you!" Warren said with a sneer.Shin clutched his chest and turned to look at Cavill next to him. Cavill nodded slightly and did not say anything. The two of them shut their mouths at the same time as they looked in Fane's direction.Warren immediately felt something was wrong. He turned to look at Fane and saw that Fane was still completely calm as if nothing had happened."Brat, it looks like you're no ordinary person!" Warren said with a sneer.Fane turned to look at him before saying calmly, "Are you here to kill us?"Warren laughed out loud, and his eyes were full of mockery, "What do you think I'm doing here? Do I look like I'm here to chat?"Fane laughed. He could not believe another one turned up so soon aft
When Warren heard that, he felt incredibly exasperated. He mumbled, "It's just Shin, how could there be any trouble? Even if he has some fellow disciples with him, Presti is more than enough. They're all trash anyway."Zayne frowned, and he unleashed an incredibly strong aura that forced Warren to take a step back, "Shut up! Do you think we can afford to be careless right now? We're at the cusp of accomplishing everything right now. We have to be extremely careful. What kind of attitude is this?"Warren immediately shut up and did not dare to say anything. Zayne coldly looked at Warren, and deeply felt like Warren was not someone who could accomplish much. If it was not for the fact that he was useful, Zayne would not even bother bringing Warren through the door with him.Seymour turned to look into the distance. Gray mist filled up the skies, and no one could see the end of the horizon.There was nothing in the skies, and Seymour suddenly started to feel some worry. He was not clo
In front of an ancient stone door, two men were standing there, while another was sitting down and resting.The men who were standing had very stiff expressions on their faces. The two of them looked at each other with animosity in their eyes. It was obvious they were not friendly with each other. The man who was sitting down had his eyes shut and completely ignored the other two."Seymour! You're just the same as Desmond. You can't even get something so simple done. Desmond lost his life. I think you're about to follow suit!" Warren sneered as he mocked.Seymour's expression was dark, and he shot right back, "Warren, stop with those disgusting words of yours! Don't think I don't know what you're trying to do. You're just trying to push me down and take all the credit for yourself!"Stop joking around! You aren't smart enough to steal my credit! Even though Desmond is already dead, he still did the best he could. He was just tricked by Fane. If it was you, you wouldn't even have
Fane frowned. After he reached out to grab Presti's neck, Presti's life ended with a crack.Shin's eyes widened as he looked at Fane with fear. His savior could very well kill him!Cavill started to panic as well. He looked at Fane with alarm. Even though he was thankful that Fane saved the two of them just now, he had no way to tell what Fane would do after this. Fane slowly walked in front of them, and he did not show much emotion on his face.Cavill said in a dry voice, "Fane, you…?"Fane shook his head, "Don't panic. I won't kill you. Let's work together. It's not like only one person will be able to enter after the door opens."Shin looked at Fane with an incredibly inquisitive look. He thought about it before he said, "I… I don't want to work together. I'll give you the key as thanks for saving me. That Valley of Enlightenment doesn't sound like a good place at all. If I enter, I don't even know if I'll be able to survive."As he spoke, Shin had a bitter look on his face.
