"Release me, and I promise never to set foot in Jiangnan City again!"
At this moment, the assassin's palm trembled, his focus was exceptionally intense, and his eyes stared intensely at Ye Feng. If Ye Feng refused outright, he would fire without hesitation.
"Release you?"
Ye Feng's gaze was icy cold, as if he could see through the assassin's thoughts, the sneer at the corner of his mouth growing even more disdainful:
"Do you think that's possible?"
Hearing this, a streak of crazed murderous intent flashed in the assassin's eyes. Even though the person before him made him feel terrified, he still had no choice but to fight to the death.
Instantly, his left hand shot up and he quickly pulled the trigger at Ye Feng!
Bang!
The muffled sound echoed within the silent building, and after seeing that he had successfully fired the bullet, the assassin's mouth curled into a faint smile.
With only three to four meters separating them, he didn't believe Ye Feng could dodge it.
However, just as he looked ahead, the smile on his lips instantly stiffened, for he saw that there was no one in front of him, and Ye Feng's figure had disappeared without a trace.
"Do you think that would work?"
Just then, an icy-cold voice suddenly came from behind the assassin, causing all the hair on his body to stand on end.
"No good!" The assassin internally cried out, and then he turned to shoot behind him.
But, just as he turned around and pointed the gun behind him, an arm grabbed his wrist.
Hm?
The assassin was startled and before he could react, a tremendous force passed through that hand, and his wrist emitted a crisp crack, breaking on the spot.
Ahh!!!
The excruciating pain in his wrist nearly drove the assassin mad. His face contorted with fear, unable to understand what kind of strength it took to break his wrist with one hand.
"I don't like people pointing guns at me!"
Ye Feng's eyes were cold, his expression indifferent, as he spoke and then snatched the gun from the assassin's hand.
"You..."
The assassin's eyes widened in horror as he looked at Ye Feng. The broken bones in his wrist had punctured the skin, exposing ghastly white bone, and the overwhelming pain made his head spin.
Just as the assassin was about to speak, Ye Feng punched him hard on the bridge of his nose.
Crack!
The assassin's nose produced a grating sound, followed by blood spraying out almost instantly through his nostrils.
At this moment, the assassin even had the thought to die; the pain from his wrist made his whole body tremble like a sieve, and the agony in his nose made him feel as if he was going to pass between life and death.
"Tell me, who sent you?" Ye Feng's cold voice seemed to come from the underworld, scaring the assassin out of his wits.
Now he was truly frightened; he felt like an ant caught in the hands of this young man, utterly defenseless. Moreover, he believed that if he remained silent, the other party would not hesitate to kill him on the spot.
"I... was tasked with a mission by the organization! They sent me to kill a woman named... Fang Qingxue! I snuck a bomb onto her car at the Blue Chamber and followed her. When I saw her car stop on the side of the road, I hid here and detonated the bomb! I thought everything was foolproof, but then I found you all escaping, so I opened fire to kill!"
The assassin no longer dared to hide anything and narrated his assassination attempt in full detail.
And as Ye Feng listened to his words, his complexion grew even darker, knowing that if it hadn't been for his presence, Fang Qingxue would have undoubtedly died.
What he couldn't fathom, however, was who in Jiangnan City dared to move against the daughter of one of the top three consortia, the Fang Family!
"Who connected you when you arrived in Jiangnan City? And where did you get the information on Fang Qingxue?"
Ye Feng now needed to root out the mastermind behind the scenes, otherwise, even if he saved Fang Qingxue this time, what about the next time, and the time after that?
"The person who connected me was... was..." The assassin hesitated as he spoke, his expression uncertain.
Seeing this, Ye Feng's face grew colder, and he immediately punched the assassin hard in the stomach.
Puh!
The assassin took a heavy blow to the abdomen and immediately spat out a mouthful of fresh blood; his body bent like a shrimp, and he seemed about to collapse to the ground.
However, Ye Feng caught his hair with one hand and asked again in a chilling voice, "Who was the go-between?"
"It was... it was Brother Hao from the Zhendong Gang..." The assassin's face was as pale as death, and he spoke with a trembling voice.
Upon hearing this, Ye Feng's eyes narrowed slightly. He had not expected Shen Zhendong's gang to be involved in this matter.
Brother Hao was Shen Zhendong's brother-in-law, but Ye Feng knew that someone like Brother Hao wasn't bold enough to assassinate the Fang Family's young lady on his own; Shen Zhendong must be involved.
Without wasting any more time, Ye Feng looked straight at the assassin and said, "Right now, you're feeling a lot of pain in your wrists, your nasal bridge, and your lower abdomen, aren't you?"
Ye Feng's words were gentle, but the assassin was taken aback. Before he could answer, Ye Feng continued:
"Not just your left hand is in pain, your right hand hurts too, and your legs hurt even more. Every part of your body, every one of your cells, every pore is throbbing with pain, and you are struggling in the abyss of agony!"
Ye Feng's words seemed to carry a magical power, and the assassin's already tense nerves tightened further. His brows furrowed deeper, his face almost contorted into a knot, a look of intense pain across his features, his back even damp with sweat.
"You have been struggling in the abyss of suffering for too long. You're tired, and you're sleepy! It's time to rest! Close your eyes, and I will help you resolve all your pain!"
Ye Feng's voice was as soothing as a mother's lullaby, causing the assassin's gaze to become blurred. He slowly closed his eyes, a gentle smile appearing at the corners of his mouth, as pure as a baby's.
Seeing this, Ye Feng's lips curled up into a cold smile. This was the Sea of Suffering Scripture, a signature technique from an international master of hypnosis.
It involved breaking a person's limbs, immersing them in frenzied pain, then magnifying the agony countless times, making one feel eternally trapped in a sea of suffering until he came along to help them transcend it.
This method of hypnosis was somewhat vicious but proved to be a killing skill when dealing with willful characters like assassins and mercenaries!
"Now, tell me everything you know! I will help you transcend the Sea of Suffering!"
...
A moment later, using hypnosis, Ye Feng again confirmed everything from the assassin. Without a second thought, he struck the assassin's head with a punch.
Bang!
The assassin's entire head caved in, blood flowing from all seven orifices, as he died instantly on the spot.
Even so, the assassin's lips still bore a gentle smile, as if he had indeed transcended completely.
"Sutra of Salvation, to save ten thousand people! And you, you're just one of them!"
Ye Feng's expression was cold. Since his arrival in Jiangnan City, he had been restraining his ferocity, but he was still the Demon King, an unblinkingly murderous 'madman' who sent chills through the spines of assassins and mercenaries worldwide.
At that moment, Ye Feng simply glanced indifferently at the assassin's corpse, then pulled out a small green bottle from his pocket and poured a drop of green potion onto the body.
Sssss...
The potion seemed to have an extremely corrosive quality, for just a single drop began to rapidly eat away at the assassin's body.
Not just the flesh but even the bones began to dissolve away!
