Chapter 1354: Taking Action

Europe, Vienna.

Late at night, pitch black, unable to see one's own fingers.

A group of people hid in the darkness, quietly creeping toward a detached house.

"This is the place, the target is inside."

Suddenly, a flash of firelight accompanied by the sound of rhythmic footsteps approached bit by bit, and these people quickly hid back into the darkness.

During the day, the streets were densely packed with patrols, but at night, the frequency of patrols decreased somewhat.

Just at this moment, this group seized a gap and quickly snuck into the building.

Xie Chan was wearing pajamas and had not yet fallen into a deep sleep; suddenly, she violently sat up, rolled over, and moved under the bed.

"Someone is here!" Xie Chan felt a jolt in her heart.

Immediately after, she heard very light footsteps.

"Master Franz said, kill the men, capture the women alive!"

Xie Chan heard this with a calm expression; from the moment she knew Liu Zheng had offended Franz, she knew that their life in Europe would not be peaceful.

She just didn't expect that after only a few days, Franz would be unable to sit still!

Fortunately, Liu Zheng had long been prepared, and the mechanism to trigger all these preparations was under the bed.

After that group of people arrived in the bedroom and looked at the empty bed, they were stunned for a moment.

"Where are the people?"

That person touched the bed and felt the warmth, then steadied himself and said: "The person hasn't run far, they must be nearby, everyone..."

"Ah!"

Just at this moment, in the dark night, a scream rang out from this inconspicuous house, piercing the sky!

The leader was stunned and quickly became vigilant of his surroundings, but it was too dark; they were afraid of alerting the enemy and also afraid of alarming the guards outside, so they hadn't lit any torches when they entered.

"Don't panic, watch your step!"

At this moment, it was already too late, and soon screams rang out one after another.

"Ah..."

Xie Chan watched those people fall from under the bed; a full hour passed before she quietly crawled out from under the bed.

Seeing the devastation scattered across the floor in the darkness, Xie Chan let out a laugh.

Fortunately, Liu Zheng had long been prepared and had installed who knows how many mechanisms in the room, terrified that Xie Chan might suffer even the slightest bit of harm.

"As expected, Miss Yue Chan, you are still here."

Just at this moment, Xie Chan suddenly heard a low, strange man's voice coming from behind her.

Xie Chan was startled, turned her head violently, but saw that man, whose large hand rushed up and had already covered her mouth.

"Want to call for help?" The man sneered.

"These mechanisms are truly formidable; I almost fell for it myself, but it's a pity he just wouldn't attack this bed. At that moment, I knew this bed was safe." The man sneered; in his view, Xie Chan had nowhere left to run.

Another place in Vienna.

Franz was still indulging in debauchery when he heard a bang.

Franz immediately threw aside the woman in his arms and hid to the side, his heart in a panic; this familiar sound...

The door was kicked open again, followed by an angry shout.

"Franz!"

This familiar voice, this familiar approach; he looked up and saw that a man had come again.

It was just that last time it was Count Austin who brought him, but this time he brought a group of other people to this place.

How could he be here? He should have already been dead!

Franz secretly glanced at Liu Sheng again, confirming without a doubt that it was his appearance, but he shouldn't have appeared here.

At this time, he should have been at home waiting for his assassins to go over and finish him off.

Could it be that his grandfather failed?

That's impossible; wasn't it said that they hired the most formidable assassins in Austria to finish off Liu Sheng?

Could it be... Liu Sheng hired someone to subdue these assassins!

Is this time to come and settle the score?

【Line 47 is a continuation of 46】

One of Franz's mistresses, seeing that the person who came was a Longyan, frowned and immediately asked Franz: "Didn't you say you were about to become a Grand Duke of Austria? Why are you still afraid of a Longyan?"

"Are you even capable?"

Upon hearing this, Franz was immediately displeased; this woman actually dared to ask if he was capable.

He backhanded her with a slap and said viciously.

"You slut, what do you know? I don't call this fear; I call this tactical observation!"

Liu Sheng walked over, looked down at Franz hiding behind the bed, and said indifferently: "So you were hiding here."

Franz looked up at Liu Sheng's murderous face, and cold sweat poured out in fear.

It's over, he really came to seek revenge.

"Baron Liu Sheng, good evening."

"Heh." Liu Zheng sneered, grabbed Franz by the hair, hauled him up, glared at him with a pair of eyes, and said indifferently: "Good indeed."

At this time, Franz's mistress chuckled, looking at Franz's terrified expression.

Remembering the slap she received, she sneered: "Didn't you say that was just a tactical observation? What did you observe just now?"

Franz was mocked by his mistress, and his face immediately turned into a rage; he roared at her: "Get lost, it's not your turn to speak here."

As soon as the words fell, Liu Zheng suddenly slapped him.

Crack!

It was exceptionally loud; Franz hurriedly covered his swollen cheek, wailing in pain.

Liu Zheng threw him onto the ground and, pointing at the five-finger print on the Mistress's face, said indifferently.

"Franz, what I despise most is a man who hits women."

Cough, cough...

Franz spat out a few teeth from his mouth, dripping with blood, and said indistinctly: "I hit my own woman, what business is it of yours?"

"It's none of my business, but I just want to beat you up; do I need a reason?"

Liu Zheng waved his hand, and the Longyan who came with him immediately swarmed in, their faces covered with black cloth.

"Beat him."

At Liu Zheng's command, this group of people immediately surrounded him and began kicking and punching Franz.

Liu Zheng watched all of this coldly.

Being beaten, Franz scurried about, but he also realized one thing: if Liu Zheng had come for revenge, he would have killed him already.

Given his lawless nature, if someone wanted to kill him, he would definitely spare no cost to finish them off.

In that case, it wasn't that his grandfather's men hadn't succeeded, but that Liu Sheng hadn't been home tonight.

However, his wife, Yue Chan, was at home.

Thinking of this, Franz felt as if he had grabbed onto a final straw, and a cold expression surfaced on his face.

Hmph, your wife is in my hands; let's see if you still want your wife to live after beating me to death today!

"Stop, stop!"

Franz shouted, but no one paid him any mind; even his Mistress was watching the show from the side.

"Liu Sheng, you don't want your wife to live anymore, do you?" Franz shouted hysterically.

Upon hearing this, Liu Zheng frowned slightly, suddenly thinking of a possibility: his grandfather, the Duke of Lorraine, had been quiet for too long.

Could it be that they made their move tonight!

"Stop." Liu Zheng grabbed Franz's head, and seeing him covered in blood and mocking him, his face turned livid, and he had a bad premonition in his heart.

"Liu Sheng, you didn't expect this, did you? You came looking for me, but my grandfather is looking for you."

"To deal with you, he hired the most formidable assassins in Austria to kill you, but don't worry, I have instructed them that Yue Chan cannot be killed."

"I still want to enjoy her."
