Chapter 964 terrified him to his knees
"Don't be in such a hurry, there will definitely be results before dawn."
Didn't I tell you before that for people like us, we need to choose the best opportunity to kill these terrifying targets?
Nighttime, especially from midnight to four or five in the morning, is when people are most likely to enter deep sleep, and also the easiest time to strike!
Hu Jinlong explained patiently.
In fact, he has given this explanation many times.
"Of course I know, but right now all I want is news that Ji Xiuhan has been killed!"
The man hung up the phone quickly.
If we're talking about who cares most about Ji Xiuhan's life or death right now, besides Ye Boxiong, it's this man.
Although he had told Xiao Ran in the afternoon that his men would make a move tonight and would definitely succeed, he was still feeling very uneasy.
If something unexpected happens, and if Ji Xiuhan manages to evade the assassination attempts of Lao Niu and that top-five killer, then it will be difficult to kill Ji Xiuhan again.
If Ji Xiuhan doesn't die, it will cause endless trouble for him.
With Ji Xiuhan's methods, he will surely be able to find out his identity. In that case, I'm afraid no one in the world can protect his personal safety.
If his previous high bounty for killing Ji Xiuhan and Lu Wanqing was merely to win Xiao Ran's favor and make her give up on Ji Xiuhan, so that she could wholeheartedly become his mistress.
But now, he is the person in the world who most wants Ji Xiuhan dead.
He hasn't slept a wink since last night until early this morning. He's been constantly smoking cigars and pacing back and forth in his room, waiting for news from Hu Jinlong.
Like Lao Niu, Shangguan Fei quickly approached the hotel and rushed to the second floor, even faster than Lao Niu.
Little did he know that the moment he suddenly sprang to his feet, the bodyguards hidden in the shadows had already spotted him.
If Ji Xiuhan hadn't instructed them, these people would probably have already been fired indiscriminately.
Even so, all the bodyguards were on tenterhooks, keeping a close eye on the second floor.
The second-floor window had been broken by Lao Niu, and Shangguan Fei easily rushed into the room.
His movements were almost identical to Lao Niu's. The moment he entered, powder popped out of his palm—the most potent sleeping potion.
In the past, he rarely used these things when carrying out missions, and he disdained to use such despicable means.
However, this time, for safety reasons, Shangguan Fei, like Lao Niu, used this sleeping drug.
But as he rushed into the room, the lights came on in the blink of an eye.
Inside the room, two people were sitting on the two sofas in the very middle, looking at him.
These two people are not a man and a woman, but two men.
One of the men was none other than Ji Xiuhan, whom he knew all too well; he was tall and had a cold and stern face.
The other person was a middle-aged man, around forty years old, with an ordinary face, calm eyes, and a mocking sneer at the corner of his mouth.
Shangguan Fei's heart skipped a beat. How did another man suddenly appear? Neither of the two men showed any signs of being charmed.
Most importantly, although the middle-aged man's eyes were calm, Shangguan Fei felt his heart skip a beat and almost stop under his calm gaze.
Who is this person? Why do I feel a sense of familiarity with them?
Suddenly, a name flashed into Shangguan Fei's mind!
At that moment, Shangguan Fei's blood froze.
Indeed, this person is none other than the legendary assassin of the Emperor Wu Family Army, a contemporary of him, an unparalleled genius of his time, and the strongest assassin in history.
He had never seen the Wu Family Army in person, but their name was renowned throughout the industry.
As for the appearance of the Wu family army, everyone in the industry knows it.
I've never met him in person, but everyone has seen his photos.
Although Shangguan Fei was shocked, he reacted in a fraction of a second and turned around at top speed, trying to jump out of the window to escape.
However, while he was fast, the Wu family army was even faster. In the instant he tried to escape, the Wu family army swayed and grabbed him by the back of his collar, throwing him to the ground.
"Let me go, please let me go! I didn't know you were here, and I didn't know this gentleman was the person you were supposed to protect."
If I had known, I wouldn't have dared to set foot on this island even if you gave me a thousand lives!
And I swear I will retire from the industry and never take on any more assignments!
Shangguan Fei did not use any of the assassination methods he had prepared, nor did he dare to use them. Almost immediately, he prostrated himself on the ground and loudly begged the Wu family army.
He had absolutely no desire to rebel against this god of the industry.
He knew that no matter how many methods he prepared, he would not be able to escape from the Wu family army. His only hope now was that the Wu family army would let him go.
Ji Xiuhan looked at the trembling Shangguan Fei, then at the Wu family army. He hadn't expected that this top-three super assassin would be so afraid of the Wu family army that he knelt down.
He finally realized that the title of King of Assassins was not something anyone could obtain. It was the highest honor in the industry, and it was something the Wu Family Army had earned through extraordinary means.
"If you want to live, it's very easy. Just ask this gentleman to agree. You don't need to beg me!"
Wu Jiajun looked at Ji Xiuhan with a slight hint of smugness, but his tone remained icy.
He really looked down on Shangguan Fei. The third-ranked super assassin actually knelt down to him just to save his life.
"Mr. Ji, I hope you can let me go. I promise I will never appear in your sight again, and I will never lay a hand on you!"
Shangguan Fei had no choice but to look at Ji Xiuhan.
However, his tone was not as respectful as when he spoke to the Wu family army.
If he used to have some respect and admiration for Ji Xiuhan, thinking that he was amazing for being able to kill Lao Niu, he no longer thinks so at all.
Ji Xiuhan was able to evade assassination attempts not because of his own exceptional skills, but because of the existence of the Killing Emperor and the Wu Family Army's constant support.
Those assassins did not die at Ji Xiuhan's hands, but at the hands of the Wu family army.
"It's easy to live. Just tell me who the financier is!"
Ji Xiuhan said coldly.
He could naturally sense Shangguan Fei's rudeness towards him.
"Excuse me, sir, we assassins have our principles. We will never betray our clients; that's our bottom line!"
Shangguan Fei's expression changed, and he said coldly.
"Hehe, I didn't expect you to have such backbone!"
However, I must know who's behind this, or I'll die!
Ji Xiuhan shook his head.
