From Beast Abilities to Sect Grand Master-Chapter 325: More to the Party

"… could allow me to shoot out a twirling wind that drills into my enemy's body."

"What…" Hong Liu nearly spilled out the tea in his mouth when he heard Lin Fan.

He glanced at Hong Liu and Ho Cheng also glanced back at him.

Both of them didn't expect this.

Was their cover blown?

It couldn't be, they thought repeatedly in their minds.

Only both of them, the chief eunuch and the Emperor knew the deal between them.

Those who'd helped them forge the artifacts were all buried somewhere out in the mountains.

"So, is the Hong Family able to do so?" Lin Fan saw their reactions and asked.

"You seem to be anxious and afraid of something?" He stood up and tried to walk nearly next to them to have a better look.

"Oh… No… It's just that we are so happy with your offer. It's been a while since I saw that many gold bars." Hong Liu, being more experienced, composed himself and gave Lin Fan an excuse.

"Yes. My father is right. Most just want to bicker and bargain with us, unlike you." Ho Cheng also gave Lin Fan a forced smile.

Lin Fan stopped and nodded.

"I'm so sorry. I've heard that in this business, you might be killed off to be silenced after you've delivered the goods. Don't worry, we are honest folks, and we will never do that."

With his eyes narrowed, he looked at Hong Liu and Hong Cheng, hinting to them what might befall them since the plan of the Emperor would most likely fail.

Hong Liu's smile stopped, and he thought for a moment.

These men obviously knew what had transpired.

He had to get rid of them as soon as possible.

He slammed his palm onto the table and shouted, "Don't worry. We have ways to keep ourselves alive."

Figures emerged from the dark and they were men that had all sorts of weapons in their hands.

Lin Fan scanned them from left to right.

He smirked as the system didn't even give him any warning.

Ho Ming, Han Dang and Zhang Yi Nian stood up, ready for battle.

But before they started to move, the servants gave out loud cries.

"Help!"

"Stop! Who are you people!"

"Get Master Hong!"

Someone had intruded into the Hong Family mansion and was going on a killing spree, slaughtering everyone in sight.

A servant came running into the guest waiting room, and before he could shout, a sword penetrated his throat from behind.

"Argh." He couldn't make any noise but a gurgling sound.

The assassin kicked the servant from behind and the body of the servant fell forward straight to the ground.

Hong Liu couldn't believe his luck.

Another group of people coming after his life?

He quickly pulled Hong Cheng towards him, who was shaking at what had happened behind him.

"Who are you?" He pointed at the assassin and said.

The assassin wiped the blood off his sword with his sleeve and stared at Hong Liu.

Not speaking a word.

Three more assassins then came into the guest waiting room.

Lin Fan didn't need to make a guess to know who they were working for.

He glanced over at Ho Ming, Han Dang and Zhang Yi Nian.

They nodded back at him.

Their plan had to change now with the assassins' entrance.

They would need to protect Hong Liu and Hong Cheng, or in the worst case, get their heads back to Qing Feng Sect, so that Zhao Ming Ye could use his Memory Recall formation array to extract the evidence.

Heavy breathing was the only thing that could be heard in the guest waiting room.

Another scream for help erupted outside the guest waiting room, and the next moment, one of the assassins lunged at Hong Liu with his sword.

Wham.

A lightning appeared as the assassin thrust his sword at Hong Liu.

Hong Liu's men came forward and tried to block the lightning strike coming at Hong Liu.

However, they were instantly electrocuted and fried by the lightning that shot at them.

Hong Liu nearly fell onto his back before Hong Cheng grabbed onto his hand.

"Help us!" They turned to Lin Fan and shouted.

They too knew who these assassins were and the fate that awaited them if they weren't able to get away.

Lin Fan, however, didn't move as the assassin got nearer to Hong Liu and Hong Cheng.

Thud.

Hong Cheng grabbed onto a candle stand and threw it at the assassin, but it didn't do anything.

The assassin just raised his sword and sliced it in half.

Both Hong Liu and Hong Cheng panicked as their lives were now on the line.

They were moments away from their eventual death.

"We will tell the truth if you help keep us alive." Hong Liu and Hong Cheng turned to Lin Fan and pleaded.

"Deal! Now run!" Lin Fan didn't need them alive, but he wanted the assassins to think so, agreeing to Hong Liu and Hong Cheng's request would be a great decoy.

Hong Liu and Hong Cheng got up and tried to run.

The assassin wasn't going to let them off and he lunged at them with his sword again.

Dang!

A loud sound erupted in the air.

Lin Fan had used his hammers and banged them together.

The assassins dropped their swords and held their hands to their ears.

The Eight Trigram Sound Wave had drilled into their heads, causing a splitting headache for them.

"Three… of you, hold him… back…" The assassin closest to Hong Liu and Hong Cheng gave out his order.

"Huh!"

They gave out a loud cry and a Qi wave radiated out of their bodies.

Having alleviated the headache by making their Qi circulate their bodies, they turned their attention to Lin Fan.

A familiar sound erupted in Lin Fan's mind.

[Ding!]

[Detected 3 souls with malevolent intent incoming!]

[Terminate 3 people with malevolent intent for 3000 vengeance points.]

They lunged at Lin Fan and at the same time the assassin who was nearest to Hong Liu and Hong Cheng also made his move.

He pulled back his sword and was ready to thrust it at Hong Liu and Hong Cheng.

Boom!

A sonic boom could be heard as Zhang Yi Nian punched at the assassin.
