CapĂtulo 1924: Chapter 1047: Xiangjiang (Part 3)
Following behind can easily arouse the bodyguardsâ suspicion, but going in first seems much more natural.
Judging subsequent actions based on the targetâs demeanor and tone, laying ambush ahead, this is what âJackalâ is most skilled at.
As one of the top assassins in the assassin world, âJackalâ is relatively thin and weak; power isnât his strength. But as an assassin, he doesnât need to excel in frontal combat. He once set a record for predicting and sniping a target from 3800 meters away.
That assassination made his reputation soar.
But this time, the targetâs itinerary wasnât arranged in advance. He couldnât find an appropriate sniper point, so he had to take an alternative approach.
The escape route has long been mapped out, and the airportâs layout has been obtained. Once successful, he can immediately escape using the restroomâs ventilation duct, change clothes, and vanish into thin air.
As he entered the restroom in advance and found a stall, he took out a handkerchief from his pocket, reached up to his stomach, and then spat out a sealed plastic ball containing a colorless, odorless liquid.
Then he took out his key, quickly poked at the ball, and evenly sprinkled the liquid on the handkerchief. He heard movement outside.
Directly killing someone on the spot would make escape too urgent.
âJackalâ as an assassin is not about sacrificing life for righteousness; itâs always about how to escape safely each time that he needs to achieve.
So far, no one knows what he looks like. Every time he visits Mainland Hotel, he wears a hood and high shoes. He dreams of one day earning enough to live a stable life with his wife and children.

Jackal opened his stall door normally and casually prepared to fling the handkerchief onto the targetâs face.
But what came was an immense force on his palm.
The next moment, his wrist was dislocated, and the handkerchief fell to the ground.
Looking at the teenager in front who grabbed his wrist and skillfully dismantled his joint, Jackal felt somewhat incredulous.
He indeed wasnât adept at frontal combat, but that was only relative to some top masters.
Moreover, how did the opponent react immediately and counterattack so swiftly?!
Did he notice him from the start?!
âYouâre really careless.â
Tao Yu looked at the thin assassin, his tone seeming very calm.
âSir, I donât know what youâre talking about. You hurt me; I feel like my wrist is broken.â
Jackalâs strong psychological ability allowed him to show just the right amount of fright on his face.
Tao Yu then glanced at the handkerchief fallen on the ground.
âVX nerve toxin, trying to stall for time to facilitate your escape, rightâŠâ
Upon hearing Tao Yuâs words, Jackal completely gave up hope.
Initially, he thought he hadnât acted yet and had a chance to explain, but now the evidence was right on the ground!
This made him feel very bitter inside; it seemed all his secrets were transparent before the opponent!
Just by looking, he could identify this colorless, odorless toxin?
He had considered the possibility of failing, thought about his curtain call, but never imagined facing such a target in this manner.
âQuite a good soul.â
Just when Jackal felt utterly desolate, his opponentâs words struck him as peculiar.
What does that mean?
The next moment, he saw the other take out a small stick and casually point it at him. The next moment, he watched his own body crumble into powder, vanishing into smoke!
And âhimselfâ, was then bound by a force, floating in mid-air!
Soul?!
What did the opponent do?
What kind of target is this exactly?
Legendary Deceit Masters?
âIf you want to kill, naturally you must have the awareness of being killed. Your soul quality is good; it can serve as recommended material and medium. If you perform well, it wonât be consumed that quicklyâŠâ
Tao Yu casually dealt with the poisonous handkerchief on the ground to prevent it from affecting others, then left the restroom as if nothing was wrong.
With substantial evidence, handing this guy over to the authorities wouldnât be an issue.
But the process is too sluggish and cumbersome; itâs more convenient to handle it like now.
The old butler and two bodyguards simply didnât know what happened in such a short time, nor did they know a spiritual body was floating around them as they boarded the plane bound for XiangjiangâŠ
âŠ
The Xiangjiang of the 90s was at its peak prosperity, and with the tech boom following the worldâs fusion, it showcased a unique charm.
Xiangjiang is now controlled by several top families. Just Tao Yuâs inherited wealth alone wouldnât stand out here.
But Tao Yuâs noble title holds extraordinary status in Xiangjiang during this era.
A Xiangjiang nativeâs illegitimate child inherited the Duke of Sutherlandâs title, which caused a violent information shock across Xiangjiang.
Itâs received constant attention.
Even though Tao Yu didnât publicize his itinerary, he was already being watched by resourceful paparazzi upon deplaning.
Due to Tao Yuâs identity issue, even these paparazzi didnât dare to approach and harass directly, only daring to take candid photos.
