Chapter 1595: An Expert Keeping Watch
w.a.n.g Songshan did not hesitate to kill the disciple after asking what he wanted. Although he knew that this disciple was mostly innocent, who made him reveal information to the wrong person and follow the Lancer family?
Sometimes, in many matters, it was not clear who was right and who was wrong. It was just like enemies on the battlefield. Many people knew that the other party was innocent, but they had to be enemies.
w.a.n.g Songshan was afraid that this disciple would leak news about him later on, so it was necessary to kill him. Of course, although w.a.n.g Songshan felt that this disciple didn’t seem to be lying, he still couldn’t believe it easily. Not long after, he found another member of the Lancer Family.
w.a.n.g Songshan repeated the same question to this subordinate. He was completely relieved on seeing that this subordinate responded exactly the same as the disciple from before. However, the subordinate must not be left alive. The dagger in w.a.n.g Songshan’s hand shook, and the subordinate fell silently to the ground.
w.a.n.g Songshan temporarily hid the corpse, then walked silently towards the room where Goode stayed.
These two Lancer family members, who were out of luck, had died in a wronged manner. What they said was true and they said so as per the family master’s command. So they wouldn’t make noise even if w.a.n.g Songshan left them alive. However, how could w.a.n.g Songshan know this?
Just as Jetson’s imagination was running wild, he heard a tiny rustle sound from the window. The sound was very soft, but it couldn’t escape his extremely keen hearing.
Somebody came! Jetson’s closed eyes suddenly opened, then closed again instantly. Originally he had wanted to get up and check, but he had immediately given up because he had noticed that the intruder’s goal was his room!
Then Jetson didn’t need to rush out. He just needed to wait here.
w.a.n.g Songshan had also been a very good a.s.sa.s.sin in his early years. His dodging and hiding ability was not worse than Fang Tian. He quickly escaped the patrolling security in the Lancer Family courtyard, then took out an iron-clawed rope from his backpack and threw it towards the roof. He heard a “click” sound as the rope stuck to the eaves.
w.a.n.g Songshan pulled the rope tightly. After seeing that the iron claw was wedged securely, he climbed up the rockface with the rope. Then, he arrived at the window of Goode’s room in an instant.
w.a.n.g Songshan carefully broke the hinge lock on the window and entered the room. However, just as he stepped in through the window, he felt that something was wrong!
In the room, there was another person besides Goode! w.a.n.g Songshan had not seen this person before and didn’t know why this person was currently in Goode’s room.
w.a.n.g Songshan frowned. He faintly felt that something was wrong in his heart and wanted to exit the room immediately, but he was unwilling because it wasn’t easy to sneak into the inner wall of the Lancer Family and successfully enter Goode’s room. If he didn’t kill Goode, then this trip would be a big failure!
In addition, w.a.n.g Songshan had taken a closer look and observed that the two people in the room should be in a state of deep sleep. He knew a person’s physical characteristics very well as an a.s.sa.s.sin, so whether they were asleep or not could be distinguished at a glance. w.a.n.g Songshan was very certain that these two men would not wake up for the time being.
w.a.n.g Songshan hesitated. Since I’m here and both of them are asleep, it is not too late to kill Goode then leave. Besides, w.a.n.g Songshan was a hundred percent sure that he could kill Goode while he was sleeping.
Thinking of this, w.a.n.g Songshan made up his mind, jumped down from the window and stood in the center of the room. However, in the next moment, w.a.n.g Songshan’s nerves tensed up altogether!
This was because he had seen an incredible scene! Originally, the unfamiliar person who should be asleep in bed had opened his eyes without warning, sat up from the bed instantly, and was staring coldly at w.a.n.g Songshan.
“You actually came?” Jetson said blankly, speaking in English. He believed that w.a.n.g Songshan most likely understood English too.
“Who are you? How do you know that I will come? Do you know me?” w.a.n.g Songshan was startled, then he faintly realized that he seemed to have fallen into a trap that he had personally walked into.
w.a.n.g Songshan also seemed to have come round to this idea after thinking of how surprisingly cooperative the two disciples of the Lancer Family were. These disciples were likely informed to answer truthfully if anyone inquired about Goode’s room.
Thinking of this, w.a.n.g Songshan could not help but laugh at himself. I thought that my mission is flawless, but apparently, I fell into a trap! It seems that I really haven’t come out for too long! Since becoming the family master of the b.u.t.terfly Family, w.a.n.g Songshan had never partic.i.p.ated in any mission. His original powerful existence in the a.s.sa.s.sin world had become that of a somewhat shaky beginner!
I believe that if I was at my peak, I would definitely not make such a mistake. However, now I am a little too confident and arrogant. I believe that everything is in my hands and I do not put others in my eyes. And this is the result.
It seems that I am really old! I didn’t take Yang Ming’s repeated instructions seriously before. Now, I guess that this person in front of is the master that was mentioned by the two disciples of the Lancer Family.
I just don’t know whether this person is a real master or a fake master. But judging from his sleep pretense and his reaction speed, this person is by no means simple. w.a.n.g Songshan dared not neglect in the slightest.
“You don’t need to know who I am.” Jetson said coldly, “As for why you came, of course I guessed it. I also don’t know who you are, but it seems that you came from the b.u.t.terfly Family, right?”
“Good guess.” w.a.n.g Songshan nodded his head without denying it. He stared at Jetson with a trace of light in his eyes. This man looks really inscrutable, but I have no impression whatsoever about such a Master. Who is this person? “Who are you? You can’t be an unknown person, right? May I ask, what is the relations.h.i.+p between you and the Lancer Family? It is best not to be involved in this messy matter!”
“Hmph! Messy matter? I don’t care about this. It’s not up to you to decide.” Jetson didn’t put w.a.n.g Songshan in his eyes at all, “As for who I am, you wouldn’t even know if I tell you. I can tell you that I am the cousin of the Lancer Family’s current family master, Kevithan!”
w.a.n.g Songshan was startled in his heart! This man doesn’t seem to be a helper that the Lancer family has spent heavily on. It is unlikely that he will ignore this. It turns out that there is such a master as the backer behind the Lancer family.
“That being the case. You should stay here. I’ll leave!” w.a.n.g Songshan had already slipped up before, so he did not dare to be reckless now. Who knew the depth of this mysterious person’s skills? If w.a.n.g Songshan acted rashly, what could he do if he wasn’t the mysterious person’s opponent?
Thinking of this, w.a.n.g Songshan had the intention to retreat. He wanted to leave here and make plans once he reached home. At least he must first investigate the ident.i.ty of the person in front of him.
“You want to leave? I’m afraid it isn’t that easy.” Jetson looked at w.a.n.g Songshan with a mocking look, “Since you know I’m here, you think you can just leave as you please?”
“So what?” w.a.n.g Songshan was complaining in his heart. This man is really taking advantage of me. I have some fear toward him, but that doesn’t mean that I am really afraid of him! It’s just that I’m not confident and I don’t want to rush into it. This guy really thinks of himself as someone powerful.
“Since you are here, stay here!” Jetson said plainly as if he was talking about something very common.
“Hmph, I come as I please and I can go as I please, do I have to ask you for instructions?” w.a.n.g Songshan was strategizing on how to create a chance to leave this place.
Anything could happen at any time between them; it was definitely impossible for w.a.n.g Songshan to turn and leave, but it was also impossible for him to walk backward and jump out the window! This was the second floor! It’ll probably be okay if he jumped forward. However, if he jumped backward, he would likely end up dead.
Therefore, w.a.n.g Songshan didn’t really have a good idea at the moment. He had to spend time and pointlessly argue with Jetson, but he was secretly extremely anxious.
At this time, the conversation between the two had already awakened Goode. Goode stared in shock at the sudden addition of a person in his room, and immediately woke up. When he saw the face of the person who had come in, he exclaimed, “w.a.n.g Songshan! Why are you here? Uncle Jetson, he is the b.u.t.terfly Family’s family master. Catch him!”
Chapter 1596: Life-saving Strike
Goode quickly pointed out w.a.n.g Songshan’s ident.i.ty because he was afraid that w.a.n.g Songshan would harm him! Goode was well aware of w.a.n.g Songshan’s hatred towards him. w.a.n.g Songshan wanted to take his life! Hopefully, Uncle Jetson can quickly capture w.a.n.g Songshan.
“Oh? Goode, do you know him? He is the b.u.t.terfly Family’s family master?” Jetson’s expressionless face showed a mocking expression, “He really isn’t afraid of death. Apparently, he is a big character!”
w.a.n.g Songshan had been waiting for the opportunity to escape, but there was no chance. Jetson’s attention had been focused on him, so w.a.n.g Songshan must find a way to divert his attention first. Otherwise, if this went on for a long time, the Lancer Family’s elites would all arrive, and w.a.n.g Songshan would have really lost the best opportunity to escape.
The opportunity had come right now! I didn’t expect that Goode would be the one to help me! Goode suddenly woke up at this time and made a fuss at me, but he has successfully diverted Jetson’s attention!
w.a.n.g Songshan also heard new information from Goode’s words; the man in front of him was called Jetson, and he was Kevithan’s cousin. It would be much easier for him to investigate since he now had two clues. As long as he wanted to investigate, this person’s ident.i.ty would likely not remain a secret.
w.a.n.g Songshan chuckled. He threw a concealed weapon in his hand in Jetson’s direction when Jetson asked that sentence. Of course, it was also aimed at Goode!
w.a.n.g Songshan firmly believed that even if Jetson wanted to catch him, he could not ignore Goode’s safety. Staying in Goode’s room meant that he had a mission to protect Goode.
“Hmph, a little trick! This is nothing!” Jetson didn’t care about the concealed weapon fired in his direction, but grabbed Goode and threw him behind him. He let the concealed weapon cast by w.a.n.g Songshan hit him.
w.a.n.g Songshan sneered in his heart, but he turned and jumped out of the window without stopping. Even if you are a master, such entrustment would eventually cause you to suffer losses. How could you block the weapon? Could it be that you don’t know that the b.u.t.terfly Family is known for its a.s.sa.s.sination? This concealed weapon is highly poisonous. You let this concealed weapon hit you like it is nothing, but hmph hmph…
Since you’re looking to kill yourself, then you can’t blame me. w.a.n.g Songshan didn’t look back at all because Jetson was already a dead person in his opinion. He actually used his body to block my concealed weapon. Isn’t that looking for a way to die?
The reason why w.a.n.g Songshan was so certain was because he had made observations when he entered the room! Both Jetson and Goode were wearing ordinary pajamas and wore no other clothes inside. The skin exposed from the neck could confirm this. Therefore, the concealed weapon shot by w.a.n.g Songshan must have hit Jetson’s body. The lethal poison on the concealed weapon would kill Jetson, even if he rescued Goode.
The Lancer Family would lose their backer if Jetson was dead, and then it would be very easy if w.a.n.g Songshan wanted to take Goode’s life. So w.a.n.g Songshan walked away so simply.
However, w.a.n.g Songshan felt that something wasn’t right just after jumping down! This was because of a gush of wind approaching behind him. Someone caught up! Who is it?
w.a.n.g Songshan did not turn back but quickly fled according to the route he had previously found. w.a.n.g Songshan did not want to stumble no matter who was chasing him from behind. However, a violent shout behind w.a.n.g Songshan changed his idea.
“The b.u.t.terfly Family’s family master is also a cowardly scoundrel!” Jetson’s voice came from behind, “With just a few useless weapons, you want to hurt me? You overestimated yourself!”
w.a.n.g Songshan was shocked! He had made several a.s.sumptions before. He thought that the person behind him might have been someone laying low in wait around Goode’s villa, but he never thought that it would be Jetson! Wasn’t he hit by my hidden weapon? How can he still be so active as if nothing happened? It’s too strange!
However, before w.a.n.g Songshan had time to think about it, he felt that his distance with the person behind him had become very small. w.a.n.g Songshan no longer dared to neglect. He quickly turned, and without looking at what’s in front of him, he quickly kicked!
This kick lashed out fiercely, concentrating all the power from w.a.n.g Songshan’s body in order to hit its target. Otherwise, the person behind him was really hard to deal with, making w.a.n.g Songshan very troubled. Back then, he should have really followed Yang Ming’s advice and observed the situation before taking action!
I didn’t expect that I would really be ambushed by the Lancer Family when I rushed in.
“Bang!” w.a.n.g Songshan kick was very accurate; he kicked Jetson’s belly! w.a.n.g Songshan was immediately overjoyed. He knew very well about the power of this kick. It could at least destroy a person’s intestines if it did not kill them, and would cause them to lose their fighting ability instantly!
w.a.n.g Songshan didn’t expect his luck to be so good. He had turned around and hit the target with a casual kick. My luck is too great, right? However, the next scene shut him up before he could be too happy. His face was suddenly filled with disbelief!
Jetson had been kicked in the lower abdomen by w.a.n.g Songshan, but the strength of this kick had failed to make Jetson stumble back; he didn’t even bend down! And it didn’t stop there. Jetson still kept running forward, as if he didn’t notice the kick. He continued to run forward and directly hit w.a.n.g Songshan to send him tumbling onto the ground!
This … is he still human? Could this guy have trained the Bronze-headed Iron Arm or the Indestructible Guardian Body or something? Nothing happened to him after being kicked by me; he could still hit me and send me flying!
For the first time, w.a.n.g Songshan felt a sense of fear in his heart! From the time he saw Jetson to the time he of his escape, w.a.n.g Songshan had definitely been nervous, but he had not been scared! I am the family master of the dignified b.u.t.terfly Family. How can I be scared of ordinary things?
But now, w.a.n.g Songshan was really scared! This guy in front of me named Jetson has abnormal martial arts! Previously, my concealed weapon hit him, but he seems to be fine. The pajamas he is currently wearing were indeed cut by the concealed weapon, but there is no blood at all. This shows that my concealed weapon did not harm him at all!
The same is true of my kick just now! Even though I used all my strength, I couldn’t harm Jetson; I was sent flying by him.
Looking at the unharmed Jetson walking over to him, w.a.n.g Songshan’s head became a bit hazy! This person is really a master, and I can’t see through him at all. This person’s martial arts are too weird. He runs significantly faster than me. I want to escape, but I can’t even outrun him!
Gritting his teeth, w.a.n.g Songshan quickly made a decision. He pulled out a small pistol from his waist, and aimed at the approaching Jetson!
Previously, w.a.n.g Songshan hadn’t used a gun but had always used a knife and a concealed weapon instead. This was because w.a.n.g Songshan was afraid of alarming other people in the Lancer Family. However, this was the time to keep himself alive, so w.a.n.g Songshan couldn’t care too much. It is better to settle the problem at hand first. If this person is not dead, I definitely cannot run away today!
“Bang!” w.a.n.g Songshan aimed at Jetson and pulled the trigger. The bullet pierced through the sky and hit Jetson’s head!
