Chapter 325: Ambush (Part 3)

Two masked assassins approached Chen Che one after the other, while Han Qingfang retreated from the alley, leaned against the wall, and took out a small mirror to touch up her makeup while waiting.

Xie Wanning's anxious figure rushed over. Seeing this, Han Qingfang immediately put away the small mirror, pinched her arm hard several times, widened her eyes, and fanned her face vigorously with both hands.

Feeling that her emotions were sufficiently primed, she bared her teeth and began to cry, then lunged toward Xie Wanning.

"Sister Xie!"

Upon seeing Han Qingfang, Xie Wanning immediately stopped in her tracks, but Han Qingfang threw herself directly into her arms, weeping like a flower drenched in rain, "Sister Xie, I'm useless, it's all my fault, Brother Chen Che, he... he..."

"What happened to Chen Che?!"

Han Qingfang sobbed intermittently, deliberately withholding the second half of her sentence. Xie Wanning, already burning with anxiety, shouted it out directly.

Han Qingfang said with a face full of sorrow and self-reproach: "He was captured by two people wearing masks!"

"What?!"

Xie Wanning grabbed Han Qingfang, her ten fingers nearly sinking into her flesh, "Which direction did they go?!"

Han Qingfang was in pain from the grip, struggled symbolically, and cried even louder: "I don't know! Boohoo..."

"Stop crying! Think carefully!"

Fire surged within Xie Wanning's chest, "If anything happens to Chen Che, I won't let you off, even if you are a member of the Han Family!"

Han Qingfang was stunned, then cried even more aggrievedly: "It's my fault, it's my fault for not protecting Brother Chen Che well. Sister Xie, kill me! If I die, it'll just be right for me to be buried with Brother Chen Che!"

"You!"

Xie Wanning's face turned livid; she truly wanted to slap her to death.

"Boom!"

At this moment, a loud noise rang out, and both Xie Wanning and Han Qingfang were startled.

Han Qingfang instantly stopped crying and turned to look. One look was all it took; her eyes widened instantly, filled with shock and disbelief.

They saw that in the alley behind them, one masked assassin had flown backward out of the alley and was embedded in the wall.

Immediately after, Chen Che walked out of the narrow alley. He was gripping an ankle in his right hand, and the other masked assassin was being dragged out by Chen Che just like a dead dog.

"Chen Che!"

Xie Wanning was both surprised and delighted, and immediately went to meet him, "Are... are you alright?"

Chen Che smiled and shook his head: "Master Senior Sister, I am perfectly fine."

Seeing that Chen Che was unharmed, the heart hanging in Xie Wanning's chest finally settled, but then she looked at the two masked assassins, and her heart suddenly jolted again.

"Your... your Martial Dao Cultivation... has recovered?"

Xie Wanning looked at Chen Che in utter disbelief.

Chen Che smiled and said nothing.

Xie Wanning understood in her heart, rolled her eyes at him, and chided: "You actually deceived even us!"

"To deceive the enemy, one must first deceive one's own people."

"Then what is going on with these two?"

"That is a question for the eldest miss of the Han Family."

Chen Che and Xie Wanning looked simultaneously at the side, at the dumbfounded Han Qingfang.

Han Qingfang looked at the two unconscious masked assassins in horror. These two were at the Grandmaster Great Perfection realm; how could they have been dealt with just like that?!

Didn't Chen Che lose his Martial Dao Cultivation? How could this be?!

"You... you are still a Martial Artist, your Martial Dao Cultivation was not crippled!!"

Han Qingfang realized she had been played and shouted in disbelief.

"I never said my Martial Dao Cultivation was crippled."

Chen Che walked toward Han Qingfang, who subconsciously retreated, looking at Chen Che with trepidation.

"You... you can't do anything reckless. I... I am a member of the Han Family. If you kill me, the Han Family won't let you off."

Han Qingfang said, her words fierce but her spirit weak.

Chen Che sneered, his expression full of disdain: "If you explain the matter of these two people clearly, I won't kill you."

Han Qingfang looked at the two masked assassins again, then glanced at Xie Wanning, and finding her expression equally cold, she decisively gave in.

"They are hired thugs of the Han Family, meant to disguise themselves as remnants of the Martial Arts Alliance to kill you. It wasn't just me; Li Ziming and Zhou Xinda were involved too. We agreed on it; it was all orders from the family.

Li Ziming and Zhou Xinda were responsible for luring Sister Xie away, and I was responsible for stalling you, lowering your guard, and then bringing you here to... to kill you."

Han Qingfang spilled everything in one breath, like beans pouring from a bamboo tube.

Chen Che nodded in approval: "A decent scheme, only you didn't expect that my Martial Dao Cultivation was still intact."

"Thump!"

Han Qingfang knelt on both knees, grabbed Chen Che's clothes, and begged pitifully: "Brother Chen Che, I only did this because of orders from my family. Every debt has its debtor; please don't kill me. As long as you don't kill me, I'll do anything!"

Chen Che lifted Han Qingfang's chin and smiled: "Alright, I won't kill you, but you must testify against Li Ziming, Zhou Xinda, and your family members regarding the plot to murder me. How about that?"

"Ah... this... this..."

Han Qingfang looked troubled, but upon seeing Chen Che's expression change, she agreed immediately, "No problem, I can testify!"

"Very good, get up."

Chen Che nodded with satisfaction.

"Swish! Pfft..."

Han Qingfang's shocked expression froze. A bullet pierced her temple, and her legs, which hadn't yet fully straightened, went soft again, and she collapsed to the ground.

"Swish! Swish! Swish!!"

Several more bullets were fired, and Chen Che and Xie Wanning immediately dodged into the alley.

Employing his Pupil Technique, Chen Che clearly saw the sniper lying in ambush on the roof of a building six hundred meters away:

"Even Han Qingfang was killed; it seems these three families aren't as united as all that."

Xie Wanning clearly also saw the sniper; True Qi gathered at her fingertips, and with a flick of her finger, a bullet manifested from True Qi streaked across the night sky, shattering the sniper scope with a whistling sound.

"Master Senior Sister, beautiful shot!"

Chen Che praised her sincerely.

"That goes without saying, your Master Senior Sister is at the Earth Master Great Perfection realm, it's just that there are too many people and buildings in the city area, so I can't easily unleash my full power."

Xie Wanning said quite proudly.

Chen Che saw the sniper discard the weapon; they were likely about to flee.

"Master Senior Sister, I'll leave this to you, I'm going to catch them!"

Leaving behind these words, Chen Che leaped, his feet stepping against the wall as he bounded toward the sniper's direction.

Xie Wanning walked out of the alley and returned to Han Qingfang's corpse. At this moment, the drenched Li Ziming and Zhou Xinda ran over.

The moment they saw Han Qingfang's corpse, both of them shuddered violently, their souls nearly flying out of their bodies.

"Sister Xie, what happened here?"

Li Ziming asked, knowing the answer.

Xie Wanning did not speak, only looking at Li Ziming coldly.

"Look over there quickly!"

Zhou Xinda pointed at a distant rooftop and shouted.

Li Ziming looked up and was shocked to discover that it was Chen Che leaping and flying between the floors.

"That is Chen Che?!"

Li Ziming's face was full of shock, "Isn't his Martial Dao Cultivation gone?!"

It's over!

Li Ziming's heart sank; since Chen Che's Martial Dao Cultivation was still there, any assassination attempt against him was already meaningless.

After all, he was someone who could even kill people from Gu Yuanzong; although perhaps there was help from the Patrol Justice Department, his Martial Dao talent and strength were also beyond doubt, one could even say he was a monstrous existence.

This point was not just for him, even his father Li Shizheng was shocked whenever he mentioned it.

But that was not all, such a god of slaughter was now playing schemes with you.

Perhaps all the plans for tonight were within Chen Che's expectations and control; once those killers were caught, there was no guarantee they wouldn't say something!

Cold sweat broke out on Li Ziming's forehead, and he looked up in a panic, only to find Xie Wanning looking at him.

"Does the Third Young Master have anything he wants to say?"

Xie Wanning asked coldly.

Li Ziming squeezed out a smile, trying to make himself look composed: "I truly did not expect such a thing to happen tonight, and now that Sister Han has unfortunately met with disaster, this is a major matter. I must return home to tell my family and let the elders decide."

"Sister Xie, I will take my leave first."

Li Ziming did not stay any longer and hurried away.

Zhou Xinda naturally also realized that things were looking bad, his eyes darted around, and he ran away at the first opportunity:

"That, I'll be going too, goodbye Sister Xie!"

However,

Neither of them ran very far before they were intercepted by Luo Lin and her men.

Luo Lin's expression was cold and stern, her gaze sweeping over the two: "Two young masters, tonight's matters are not yet over, so the two of you should not be in such a hurry to leave."
