Chapter 674: Chapter 701 Despair (Two in One)
Because following his gaze, Lin Xi did not fall to the ground with a fatal shot as he imagined.
Instead, he saw Lin Xi smile at him and walk towards him at a terrifying speed.
That speed was even faster than his running!
Instantly, he felt a chill all over his body, realizing he had encountered a master among masters!
He must know that at the moment he fired, Lin Xi was still under his lock.
Which meant at the moment the bullet was fired, Lin Xi dodged.
"What the hell is this speed and reflex???" Even under such hot weather, cold sweat started to pour from the ace assassinâs forehead.
For a moment, he thought, not even the boss of the Dark Dragon Club would have such reflex speed, meaning even he couldnât dodge that shot.
He thought this in a single instant.
The next moment, he didnât fire a second shot because Lin Xiâs speed was simply too fast, and with his first instinct, it was impossible to lock him.
So, without any hesitation, he turned around and jumped from the second floor, fleeing toward the ruins behind the abandoned factory, not looking back.
Of course, he also planned to go to the room on the second floor where Ding Yueqiu was and control her life to threaten Lin Xi not to resist, and then seize the opportunity to kill him...
But he had a strong feeling that he would be slower than Lin Xi in reaching Ding Yueqiu.
If thatâs the case, heâs definitely going to his death!
Moreover, he now has no guarantee to directly confront Lin Xi, not even sure he could withstand three moves.
His intuition, he believed, was very accurate.
Because with it, heâs escaped several deadly encounters during missions.
After running seven or eight hundred meters away, he was stunned, "Not pursued?"
However, at this time, thereâs no room for doubt.
Since there was no pursuit, heâd just escape.
Moreover, he planned to immediately report the recent events to the club boss and buy a plane ticket to leave Huaxia, even if there were no flights in Chuzhou City now, he must leave Chuzhou City immediately.
Last night, with so many strong individuals killed in Chuzhou City, he originally didnât care much.
After all, as an assassin, heâs much better at hiding himself and has a far superior escape ability than other strong individuals, so he wasnât worried about encountering any danger.
But just now, he was scared.
While fleeing, he quietly said, "Chuzhou City, truly a terrifying place!"
"Or rather Huaxia is a terrifying place!"
As he escaped over one kilometer away, feeling he was basically safe, he still didnât slow down, trying to get as far away from here as possible at a desperate speed.
"Hmm?"
Suddenly he hit the brakes, leaving a deep mark on the ground with his foot before stopping.
He tensely looked at a figure standing ten meters ahead, on an abandoned one-story building, a silhouette he was extremely familiar with, standing against the light.
With the posture of a boss looking at a subordinate, watching him like waiting for a long time, a bit impatient.
"How are you here?" He suddenly felt like seeing a ghost, almost scared to death.
Hmm, this person was Lin Xi.
The ace assassin immediately prepared for combat while asking, "I just remembered you werenât pursuing!"
Actually, he didnât need to ask anymore, he already knew the answer.
And that was this young man who looked much younger than him, moved many times faster, yet shouldnât he first check on Ding Yueqiu?
Lin Xi did not respond to him; anyone smart knew what was happening, and this ace assassin didnât seem dumb.
"Oh?" Lin Xi was a bit surprised, just seeing the well-prepared ace assassin turn and flee in the other direction.
This attitude was so decisive; he hadnât noticed just now.
Though this ace assassinâs skills were average in his eyes, his intuition was still very strong and decisive.
However, those are useless.
So the next moment, Lin Xiâs figure vanished, waiting again in another direction for the ace assassin.
Just like that, the ace assassin ran in all directions no less than twenty times, but every time Lin Xi was waiting ahead.
In that instant, he was desperate!
This was clearly a boss!
Finally, he simply stopped running, panting heavily and sat directly on the ground, utterly exhausted.
And for the first time in his life, he felt completely hopeless.
He sat on the ground, watching Lin Xi walk step by step toward him, asking, "What do you want to do with me?"
Lin Xi countered, "What do you think?"
"Kill me?" the ace assassin wondered.
Lin Xi nodded, "Youâre right!"
The ace assassin felt suffocated inside, grumbling inwardly, could you be a bit more tactful?
Of course, he still didnât give up hope, "Canât you let me go?"
Lin Xi shook his head, "No!"
"I can give all my money to you, as long as you spare me!" The ace assassin thought for a moment, believing worldly people loved money, "But if you kill me, you wonât get a penny of my money."-"You know, itâs several billion."
While Lin Xi wanted more money, he wouldnât ruin his dignity at this time, "I donât lack money!"
Ace assassin: "..."
"Then, you can die now!" Lin Xi next reached out a hand towards the weakened ace assassinâs head.
The ace assassin quickly stopped him, "Wait, wait, canât you really spare me?"
He didnât give up that last glimmer of hope, after all, who wants to die? Who doesnât want to live well?
If so, then this person might be mad.
Lin Xi paused his hand, "If you have something to say, say it quickly, Iâm quite busy!"
The ace assassin suddenly felt aggrieved, even about to die, canât he say everything he wants properly?
Seeing Lin Xiâs impatience, the ace assassin quickly asked, "Did you foresee my shot just now? And how did you dodge it?"
Those were two points he couldnât understand!
After all, he was lying on the rooftop, Lin Xi had no clue, because only he knew about this plan, not even Ding Yueqiu locked on the second floor knew about his plan.
Meanwhile, being able to dodge a bullet was something he couldnât fathom.
Because it simply felt too sci-fi!
Lin Xi heard his question and felt there was nothing to hide, so he replied, "The moment you aimed at me, I sensed your position; itâs intuition, hard to explain or articulate."
"As for how I dodged, itâs like you punching me, I just timely shifted my head away."
Ace assassin: "..."
Regarding Lin Xiâs first point, he could somewhat try to understand it, as intuition still exists.
Though Lin Xiâs intuition sounded terrifying, with such explanation, he couldnât argue at all!
However, the second point, Lin Xiâs reply made him very dissatisfied.
Especially the analogy, what the hell with you punch me, and I timely shift my head away, whatâs this!
After all, the speed of a sniper bullet and the speed of a punch, those were two completely different levels, how could they possibly be compared?
Just as he was about to refute, Lin Xiâs hand already pressed down, giving him no chance to speak.
Immediately, he died bleeding from his seven orifices!
The ace assassin from the Dark Dragon Club, a killer that made the international world tremble with fear, just died, and died so miserably at that!
Lin Xi turned and left without glancing at the ace assassin, as if this person was just an ant to him.
In fact, that was indeed the case.
On the second floor of the abandoned factory, Ding Yueqiu weakly leaned against a dusty room.
She had some scars on her face but no other injuries on her body, and she wasnât bound with rope or chained up.
The gunshot that rang out earlier left her in utter despair.
Could her master already be dead?
