Chapter 159

Under the doubtful gazes of the first team's bodyguards, Xu Tian put on the western cowboy hat and the black eyepatch, covering half of his face.

"From now on, we represent Shadow."

The moment he put on the mask, his aura changed instantly, transforming from a gentle and sunny youth into a mysterious, gloomy man with a hoarse voice.

Xu Tian occasionally audited Murong Xue's classes in his spare time and also learned some vocal mimicry techniques from a voice acting teacher. Although he hadn't reached the level of a professional voice actor, with the addition of clothing and props, plus his deliberately lowered voice, he really had the feeling of a weathered middle-aged man.

"It's a pity I don't smoke, otherwise I could be even more like one."

Xu Tian seemed to shake his head with some regret. When he looked up and saw the bodyguards in front of him still standing there blankly, his tone became even colder:

"Change your clothes quickly. Isn't the situation critical? What are you standing there for? Waiting to die?"

"You want us to pretend to be Shadow members?" The captain widened his eyes in disbelief.

As a mysterious organization with great lethality, Shadow could indeed make Tattoo members fearful.

But those Tattoo people weren't idiots; even if they dressed up as Shadow, they weren't real Shadow members!

This kind of lie that could be easily exposed would not help the current situation at all.

"Are you sure Shadow members dress like this?"

The bodyguard next to the captain couldn't help but question.

"And even if they dress like this, how do you know the Tattoo people will believe we are them?"

"Do you have any other way?" Xu Tian threw a Batman suit to the captain.

Of course, he wasn't betting on luck, but he had happened to hear some news about "Shadow" in his previous life.

Including some unknown eccentricities of the Shadow leader, the Shadow Master.

For example, he liked to let his subordinates play the images of classic movie characters.

The captain and the other bodyguards shook their heads with heavy faces.

"Since there isn't, from now on, you must all listen to my command."

Xu Tian's tone was very calm, but his words carried an unquestionable strength.

Beside the suspension bridge at the edge of the small city.

A Wei and Chen Xiaoxiao were confronting One-eyed Jack and his subordinates.

They didn't expect the other side to be so fearless, not even caring about the Tang family's power.

Originally, they wanted to use the Tang family's identity to delay time as much as possible and wait for support to arrive.

But the Tattoo people wanted a quick battle and didn't give them any buffer opportunity at all.

"Hurry up and do it; staying in this dump for too long makes my whole body uncomfortable."

After One-eyed Jack gave the order, Chen Xiaoxiao and the others immediately gripped their weapons tightly, ready for a bitter battle.

Medusa spoke somewhat excitedly: "Leave Tang Bingyan and that black-haired woman to me; you can do whatever you want with the others!"

One-eyed Jack's expression changed, and he said somewhat impatiently: "We don't have time to play games with you; kill Tang Bingyan directly and then evacuate."

Obviously, he was clear about the Tang family's power in Huaxia; even though they had now seized the initiative to surround Tang Bingyan and her subordinates, it was no easy task to kill them.

Medusa, however, didn't care about One-eyed Jack's instructions.

"Jack, being so timid isn't your style."

"Now that all our people are nearby, are you still worried they can grow wings and fly away?"

"I want to carve fifty cuts on that black-haired woman's face—no, one hundred cuts... who told her to have a fox-like face!"

The gloomy-looking woman stared fixedly at Chen Xiaoxiao, as if looking at an object she had hated for a long time.

"Fine, then that woman and Tang Bingyan are both yours, but you have to be quick."

"No problem."

Although Medusa agreed, she didn't want the legendary Huaxia business queen and the black-haired woman in front of her to die so painlessly.

For Medusa, killing didn't bring her physical and mental pleasure; only by torturing women more beautiful than her in the most cruel way, letting those women make a fool of themselves in fear, and then slicing them to death one knife at a time, watching them stop breathing in pain with her own eyes, was that the most satisfying.

The devil-like woman stepped forward a few steps and hooked her finger at Chen Xiaoxiao.

"Let's start with you; aren't you trying to protect your master?"

"If you can last five minutes under my hands, I'll make an exception and let your master die a little faster."

Medusa's provocation made Chen Xiaoxiao furious; she didn't think twice and rushed over, waving the butterfly knife in her hand.

"Xiaoxiao, be careful!"

A Wei knew he couldn't stop her, so he could only stand in the back and watch the changes.

He was closest to Tang Bingyan in the car; if other Tattoo assassins wanted to sneak attack, he could block the knife for Tang Bingyan at the fastest speed.

In the blink of an eye, Chen Xiaoxiao had already exchanged two moves with Medusa.

Medusa indeed had the capital to be arrogant and vicious; her moves were not as direct as Western fighting techniques, but instead mixed some elusive and tricky moves into her actions, which were very difficult to break through.

Chen Xiaoxiao exchanged three moves with Medusa in the blink of an eye; although the other side's moves were strange, she was the most outstanding Shadow Guard around Tang Bingyan, so even if she couldn't crack them for a while, she didn't fall into a disadvantage.

Medusa originally thought the black-haired woman in front of her was just a flower vase, just like teasing a weak and pitiful pet, and didn't use her full strength.

But when she saw Chen Xiaoxiao dodge her attacks again and again, the contempt in her eyes finally faded.

This black-haired Oriental woman was stronger than all the flower vases she had encountered before.

"Really interesting..."

A cold, bone-chilling smile curled at the corners of Medusa's lips.

"The first Shadow Guard under Tang Bingyan is indeed well-deserved; I actually don't want you to die so easily. Interesting things should live a little longer so they won't make me so bored..."

Medusa changed her mind; she wanted to capture Chen Xiaoxiao alive, then lock her in her basement, torture her slowly, and watch the fighting spirit in her eyes dissipate bit by bit with her own eyes until she completely collapsed.

This process must be very exciting!

"Hehe, want to kill me?"

The butterfly knife in Chen Xiaoxiao's hand brought up a cold wind in mid-air, heading straight for Medusa's throat: "You're not worthy!"

After Medusa realized she was difficult to deal with, she put away her casual posture.

In a moment, the two black-clad women fought for more than a dozen rounds, and the outcome was hard to distinguish.

But even though Chen Xiaoxiao fought more bravely as the battle went on, a look of worry appeared in the eyes of A Wei, who was watching the battle from the back.

Medusa's strength was higher than Chen Xiaoxiao's; if she used her full strength, Chen Xiaoxiao would have been seriously injured long ago.

But she deliberately didn't do so, instead deliberately delaying time, wanting to wait until Chen Xiaoxiao was exhausted before taking her down in one fell swoop.

It was like a cat catching a mouse; it wasn't in a hurry to bite it to death, but grabbed the mouse's tail, appreciating its miserable struggle, and waited until the mouse was exhausted and could no longer struggle before showing its fangs.

A Wei could see the other side's purpose, and Chen Xiaoxiao, who was fighting Medusa, naturally knew it too.

But Medusa's strength was astonishing; she was now in a passive position and couldn't turn the tables at all.

Just as Medusa was playing the "cat and mouse" game with Chen Xiaoxiao with great interest, Vampire George, standing on the other side of One-eyed Jack, impatiently raised his ten fingers with long nails.

His nails were trimmed very sharply; they were his weapons for killing.

"Women are just troublesome; hurry up and solve the target; I still have to attend the carnival at the Seventh Avenue Bar in L City tonight!"

"Shut up!"

Medusa turned around and used a flying kick to block the eager George behind her: "I'll be able to find her flaw soon."
