Peerless Martial Expert in the City-Chapter 253 - 256 3000000

"Ah?"

When Jin Xiaohan heard that the person from the Assassin Organization also said Xiao Yi was an expert, and that the organization had lost three gold medal assassins, he was suddenly taken aback, his mouth agape in disbelief. After seeing the icy expression on Liu San’s face, which seemed as if he might kill him at any moment, Jin Xiaohan quickly retracted his shocked expression, his face turned pale with anxiety as he hurriedly defended, "Mr. Assassin, this has nothing to do with me, I really didn’t know he was such an expert!"

This was your Assassin Organization’s own issue, if this blame was really to be placed on his head, he would be even more wronged than Dou E!

More importantly, if the blame were placed on him, and they vented their anger on him, would he still have a way to live?

"It’s not your fault, you mean, it’s my own fault?"

"No, no, what I mean is..."

Of course, it’s your fault, I already paid the money, isn’t investigating the opponent supposed to be your own responsibility? Jin Xiaohan thought to himself, but as he raised his head and saw the sinister look in Liu San’s eyes, he involuntarily shivered. The words he was about to blurt out were immediately swallowed back. He struggled for a long time but couldn’t produce a reasonable explanation.

It wasn’t his fault, nor was it his own, he felt like he was about to cry.

"Don’t worry, I won’t make you pay with your life, your measly life isn’t worth the lives of my assassins. However, due to the incorrect information you provided, we suffered a significant loss, so you should make it up to us somewhat, shouldn’t you?"

Liu San dismissed Jin Xiaohan with a look, his eyes again filling with a trace of disgust. If only Xiao Yi hadn’t said he needn’t act, he would barely be able to restrain himself from chopping him down right then.

Mere thinking of harming his friend already warranted a thousand, no, ten thousand deaths!

"Yes, I should make it up, I definitely should make it up! Mr. Assassin, tell me how much you want, I’ll give it all to you, all the money I have!"

When Jin Xiaohan heard that the terrifying assassin meant he didn’t plan to harm him but just wanted him to pay money, he was instantly overjoyed. As long as his life was spared, everything else was negotiable. Breaking some wealth to ward off disasters was more than reasonable.

Saying this, he excitedly pulled out his wallet, eager to give Liu San the money.

"Jin Xiaohan, what do you mean by this? Do I look like a beggar to you?"

Liu San glanced at the stack of bills still exuding a faint scent of money, then his brows lifted, and he looked coldly at Jin Xiaohan.

"Ah, this...it’s my fault, my fault, big brother, you say it, how much money, we’ll go withdraw it now."

Jin Xiaohan didn’t understand why Liu San suddenly became angry, but as soon as he saw his glance at the wallet in his hand, cold sweat immediately broke out on his forehead. He really panicked; the few thousand dollars in this wallet might make his ordinary classmates’ eyes light up, but to an assassin like the one before him, isn’t that just shooing away a beggar?

The initial fee they requested to deal with Xiao Yi was already five hundred thousand at the lowest rate.

"Your classmate cost five hundred thousand, our Assassin Organization’s brother also underwent a lot of professional training, one million per life, three million, isn’t that too much?"

Liu San’s expression finally eased a bit, but when he mentioned his classmate’s five hundred thousand, his face involuntarily took on a strange expression.

Number one bounty on the Assassins Alliance list, a sky-high reward, leading by ten million ahead of the physician to the president of the White Tiger Country, the world’s most recognized valuable life, he had initially accepted this task for just five hundred thousand. If word got out, it would surely make the whole world of assassins boil, wouldn’t it?

"Three million!"

When Jin Xiaohan heard the amount Liu San quoted, he nearly jumped out of his chair.

He wasn’t someone who had never seen money. Growing up, the New Year’s money he received added up to quite a bit, at least one or two million for sure, but in these years, spending money on womanizing, and additionally, just a while ago, he had spent five hundred thousand in one go to hire assassins. With such lavish spending, his savings had already nearly run dry.

He could come up with thirty or forty thousand, but amounts over one hundred thousand, he could only barely manage by turning to friends in his circle, finding a way. Three million was simply out of the question!

"What, is it too little? I don’t mind if you contribute a bit more."

Liu San looked indifferently at Jin Xiaohan.

"I...Mr. Assassin, I really don’t have that much money. I spent five hundred thousand a short while ago to hire you, I really have no money left. In my card, all that’s left is just over eighty-one thousand."

Is that little?

Jin Xiaohan really wanted to cry, tears glistening in his eyes as he looked pitifully at Liu San.

"Jin Xiaohan, let me tell you, don’t play these games with me, don’t think I don’t know. Your Jin family is wealthy, and you, as the young master, can’t come up with this amount of money? I’m telling you, three million, not a penny less. Tomorrow night before eight, I’ll come to collect it, or else, you’ll know the consequences."

Liu San indifferently swept a glance at Jin Xiaohan’s pitiful expression, completely unmoved, his eyes becoming extraordinarily cold.

While speaking, his hand suddenly produced a small knife, chillingly gleaming like a crescent moon, which he softly placed on Jin Xiaohan’s neck.

"Big brother, I’ll give it, I’ll give it, please just don’t kill me!"

Watching the man in front of him who like a magician had unexpectedly produced a small knife resembling the Grim Reaper’s scythe, feeling the chilling sensation on his neck, Jin Xiaohan’s face instantly turned pale, and cold sweat began profusely seeping from his forehead as he hurriedly and cautiously cried out, his voice already trembling, terrified that the other might really slice down.

He had no doubt that with a mere flick, the small knife, like the Grim Reaper’s scythe, could reap his life like cutting through straw! He did not doubt that the other had the courage to do so either.

What was the other party’s profession?

An assassin, indeed a professional assassin, relying on this for his livelihood! Just by looking at this fellow’s deathly and ominous demeanor, one would know that he has had his hands in no less than fifty, if not a hundred cases!

In the moment he finished speaking, Jin Xiaohan suddenly felt a warmth in his lower body, a hot liquid, ultimately uncontrollable, sprayed out.

"Better remember that by tomorrow night before eight."

Smelling a sudden strange odor, Liu San’s eyebrows immediately furrowed, a deep disgust flashing in his eyes as he was rendered speechless by this coward. With a flick of his wrist, the knife on Jin Xiaohan’s neck abruptly vanished into the air, and he simultaneously opened the car door and stepped out.

Leaving behind Jin Xiaohan in the car, his face flushed and expression extremely awkward.

Three million...

After a long while, Jin Xiaohan recovered from the embarrassing situation, realizing the terrifying figure had finally left, yet he felt no relief. Thinking of the three million he had just agreed to, tears began streaming down his face.

His heart was nearly filled with regret. Why did he have to offend Xiao Yi?

If there were a pill for regret in the world, he certainly wouldn’t have made that decision back then; he would not have provoked this devil. If not for him, he wouldn’t have endured so much frustration, suppression, and pain, nor would he have thought to approach this assassin, and without seeking an assassin, he wouldn’t be in his current predicament...

Not only did it appear that Xiao Yi hadn’t been killed, but now he also had to lose three million—no, not just three million, there had been an earlier sum of five hundred thousand...

Three million, where could he possibly find that amount...

......

Xiao Yi hadn’t heard Jin Xiaohan’s repentance, nor had he seen the tears of regret in his eyes; he was completely unaware of Jin Xiaohan’s ordeal and had absolutely not expected Liu San to personally deal with Jin Xiaohan.

Of course, even if he had known, he wouldn’t have let him off simply because of his tears.

If he had known, he would simply have told him that three hundred and fifty thousand was merely reclaiming a bit of interest, just a prelude. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

Now, Jin Xiaohan had officially been listed in Xiao Yi’s blacklist, becoming one of its entries.

He had given Jin Xiaohan opportunities before; Xiao Yi had always held the initiative. Jin Xiaohan had troubled him multiple times, which he dismissed with merely a slight smile, ignoring him. Unfortunately, Jin Xiaohan didn’t seize these chances and eventually made the worst choice, one Xiao Yi could not tolerate.

He had dared to target Wang Qingqing, employing such despicably shameful tactics!

This time, he directly hired an assassin against him. All of these had crossed Xiao Yi’s threshold for a typical bad student.

Yet Xiao Yi also knew that the time wasn’t right yet for settling the account. This account would have to be settled slowly after the impact of this current Li Xiaohan incident had passed.

After cultivating again through the night and further solidifying his realm, Xiao Yi woke up from his meditation the next morning, freshened up, had breakfast, and then picked up his bag and headed to school.

Although Liu San had reported quite a bit of information, making him aware of his tricky situation as the three big alliances and organizations were all seeking him, giving him a sense of heightened crisis, Xiao Yi wasn’t about to panic or get flustered before his enemies arrived, as he was not accustomed to living in constant fear.
