Chapter 927 Qimen Displacement Technique
After Jiang Bin returned to his home, he called a pair of assassins, who were his followers, to his room.
These two men were called Zhang Heng and Li Gao. They were well-known assassins in Tortoise Kingdom. Unfortunately, they offended a big shot, so they were currently in hiding in Jiang Binâs mansion.
After greeting him, Zhang Heng said, âGeneral, what can we do for you?â
âThereâs something I need the two of you to do.â
As Jiang Bin spoke, he introduced Qin Haodongâs situation to the two of them.
Li Gao laughed and said proudly, âGeneral, itâs just killing a suckling boy. Thereâs no need for both of us to deal with him. I can kill him alone.â
Jiang Bin said, âThis is the task Great General Xiahou personally handed over to me. You cannot be careless. Are you confident?â
âIâm 100% sure.â Li Gao said, âIn terms of cultivation, Iâm at the final stage of the Voiding Realm. Heâs just at the late stage of the Voiding Realm. His cultivation is a level lower than mine. In terms of killing methods, he was still in diapers when I started killing people!â
Zhang Heng then said, âYes, General. What we cultivate is assassination. When we were roaming around Jianghu, there were many masters at the stage of the Combination Realm who had been assassinated by us. Whatâs more, we never failed before.â
Jiang Bin was still hesitant and said, âI think itâs better for both of you to work together. After all, that boy can summon a seventh-level demonic beast. It is very powerful.â
Li Gao said proudly, âGeneral, you think too much. We are also notorious in the killer world. If both of us go and kill such a young man and this news spreads out, it will be a shame for us.
âFurthermore, in our presence, he doesnât even have a chance to summon his demonic beast.â
Zhang Heng cooperated and said, âGeneral, I think so too. Only one of us is required to go and kill such a person.â
Because the two of them were so confident and they had pledged their lives, Jiang Bin did not say anything more. He said to Li Gao, âAll right! Iâll leave it to you.â
Li Gao said, âDonât worry, General. You just sit here and drink tea with my brother. After you finish a pot of tea, Iâll bring that boyâs head to you.â
After that, he strode out of the room and rushed to the courtyard.
According to Jiang Binâs instructions, he sneaked into the small yard where Qin Haodong lived.
This guy was not just bragging. He was really good at carrying out assassinations. He hid in the shadows of the night and was as light as a ghost without any weight.
If it werenât for Qin Haodongâs strong Spirit, it would be really difficult for him to sense Li Gaoâs presence.
Lingwu Continent was not like earth. There were no glass windows at all.
Li Gao sneaked to the window and found a crack to look inside. When he saw that the person inside was sleeping on the bed, he lightly poked a hole in the window paper and slowly inserted a bamboo tube in.
Then, with a puff, thick yellow smoke slowly spread into the room.
A pleased smile appeared at the corners of his mouth. This kind of yellow smoke was the exclusive knockout drug made by him. Even a seventh-level demonic beast would be knocked out by it.
At this point, the only thing he needed to do was to go in and behead Qin Haodong.
After observing for a while, he found that it was still very quiet in the room, so he opened the window and jumped into the room.
Qin Haodong was still sleeping on the bed and his surroundings were very quiet. Li Gao took out the dagger on his back and walked towards the head of the bed.
In his estimation, he only needed to raise his hand and behead Qin Haodong. Then, his task would be completed.
However, as soon as he took a few steps, he suddenly felt dizzy. Then, his limbs went weak, and he fell to the ground with a plop. His dagger slipped out of his hand.
âWhatâs going on?â
Li Gao was shocked. It was obvious that he had been poisoned. However, he had already taken the antidote and was completely immune to his own knockout drug.
At this moment, Qin Haodong, who was lying on the bed, suddenly sat up, looked at him happily, and said, âHow is it? Is the effect of the Immortal Intoxication made by me good?â
An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. When Li Gao released his knockout smoke, Qin Haodong also released the Immortal Intoxication he refined.
The difference was that Li Gao was not immune to all kinds of poisons, unlike Qin Haodong. As soon as he entered the room, he was poisoned by the Immortal Intoxication and did not have any strength left in him.
âYou⊠YouâŠâ
Li Gao stuttered for a long time. However, he couldnât utter a complete sentence.
His own knockout drug didnât work but he was knocked out by Qin Haodongâs drug. He had been an assassin for so many years. This was the first time he had encountered such a situation.
Qin Haodong said, âTell me who asked you to come here. Maybe I will spare your life.â
Li Gao just closed his eyes. As an assassin, he would never betray his employer.
Moreover, Jiang Bin was Xiahou Hongxiangâs trusted subordinate. If he betrayed them in Golden Horse City, his only ending would be death.
Qin Haodong just asked casually. Even if this guy didnât tell him, he still knew who did it. He directly locked Li Gaoâs acupoints and threw him under the bed without difficulty.
He knew that Xiahou Hongxiang would send someone over again, so he did not sleep. He got up, relit the light, made a pot of tea, and sat at the table, drinking happily.
Jiang Bin and Zhang Heng waited in the room for a long time. The second pot of tea had been drunk, but Li Gao was still not back yet.
âDid something happen?â Jiang Bin said worriedly.
Zhang Heng was also a little confused. Normally, Li Gao should have been back by now.
âGeneral, donât worry. Iâll go and have a look now. Iâm sure Iâll cut off that boyâs head.â
After that, he went out of the room and rushed to the courtyard.
Zhang Heng came to Qin Haodongâs window and peeped inside. Li Gao was not there. Only Qin Haodong was sitting there and drinking tea alone.
âWhat happened? Where did Li Gao go?â
He was confused. However, this wasnât the time to be looking for Li Gao. The most important thing was to complete the task General Xiahou had assigned him first.
At this time, Qin Haodong stretched. He then yawned and muttered to himself, âIâm really sleepy. Iâll go to sleep.â
After that, he walked to the bed and flung himself down on the bed. Soon, the sound of loud snoring could be heard.
Zhang Heng waited for a while longer before poking a hole through the window paper. Then, he inserted a small bamboo tube in and blew out a puff of yellow smoke.
Li Gao and he were originally partners, so their modus operandi was exactly the same.
After a while, when he felt that the drug should have taken effect already, he jumped into the room from the window. Then, he walked toward Qin Haodong with the ghost-head knife in his hand.
Even when he walked to the bed, Qin Haodong still didnât move and was snoring loudly on the bed.
âBoy, go to hell!â
Zhang Heng raised the knife and cut off Qin Haodongâs head. Then he grabbed the hair of the head and jumped out of the window.
âThe Generalâs task is too simple.â
Zhang Heng was delighted. He would surely be rewarded for completing the task Jiang Bin had assigned.
Not far off, he saw a shrub at the side of the road and threw the head in his hand there. Then, he quickly returned to Jiang Binâs home.
Jiang Bin paced back and forth in the room. He was waiting anxiously. When the door opened, Zhang Heng came in from outside.
He asked eagerly, âHow did it go?â
Zhang Heng said proudly, âGeneral, donât worry. I just cut off that boyâs head with my own hands. Heâs already dead.â
âIs it really that easy?â
Jiang Bin asked in disbelief, âAre you sure you killed Qin Haodong?â
Zhang Heng said confidently, âOf course! I saw him lying on the bed. I then cut off his head with my knife.
âHowever, I did not think itâs good to bring back that bloody head, so I threw it into the shrub by the road. If you donât believe me, I can take that head back now.â
Jiang Bin waved his hand and said, âNo need. Just make sure youâve succeeded.â
Just like this, he had completed Xiahou Hongxiangâs task. He was also extremely happy. Only then did he remember Li Gao and asked, âWhere is Li Gao? Where has he gone?â
Zhang Heng said, âI donât know, too. I didnât see Li Gao along the way. I guess he will come back tomorrow morning.â
Both Zhang Heng and Li Gao were just Jiang Binâs followers, so he didnât mind. He said, âAll right! Go back and have a rest. Youâll be amply rewarded tomorrow.â
âThank you, General.â
Zhang Heng went back to rest happily.
Early the next morning, Jiang Bin arrived at Xiahou Hongxiangâs Lord Mansion.
Seeing him, Xiahou Hongxiang immediately asked, âHow did it go?â
Jiang Bin said, âIt went very smoothly. That boyâs head had been chopped off.â
âWell done. This boy finally got what he deserved!â Xiahou Hongxiang gnashed his teeth and said, âBrother, nephew, I have avenged you.â
After that, he took Jiang Bin to the courtyard to greet Princess Xingyue.
No matter what, Zhao Xingyue was the Princess of Tortoise Kingdom. He had to adhere to basic etiquette.
After entering, he greeted Zhao Xingyue and chatted with her for a while.
At this point, the Little Witch walked in. âSister Xingyue, breakfast is ready. Letâs get ready to eat.â
Zhao Xingyue said, âGo get Big Brother Qin. Letâs have breakfast together.â
âIâll go now.â
The Little Witch agreed and ran out happily.
A sneer appeared at the corners of Xiahou Hongxiangâs and Jiang Binâs mouths. They thought to themselves, âWant to ask Qin Haodong to come here to eat? Go to hell to find him.â
Xiahou Hongxiang was afraid that Princess Xingyue would be suspicious of him when she found out that Qin Haodong had been killed, so he said, âYour Highness since you are about to have breakfast, we will leave first.â
Jiang Bin and he turned around and were about to leave. Before they reached the door, they saw Qin Haodong coming in from outside.
âThis⊠thisâŠâ
Both of them were very shocked. Then, Xiahou Hongxiang stared coldly at Jiang Bin and seemed to be asking, âWasnât Qin Haodong already beheaded? Why is he still alive now?â
Jiang Bin was also confused. Zhang Heng was very sure that he had chopped off Qin Haodongâs head. However, the situation did not seem to be like that at all now.
Seeing their stunned expressions, Qin Haodong said playfully, âWhatâs wrong, Great General Xiahou? Donât you recognize me after a night?â
Last night, he had noticed Zhang Hengâs arrival, so he directly used the Qimen Displacement Technique to replace Li Gao under his bed with him when Zhang Heng was about to cut off his head.
Therefore, the head chopped off by Zhang Heng was Li Gaoâs head, not Qin Haodongâs. Qin Haodong was unscathed.
Xiahou Hongxiang was also a cunning fox. He quickly calmed down and said with a smile, âItâs nothing. I just didnât expect that Mr. Qin came as soon as we are about to leave.â
After saying that, he left the courtyard with Jiang Bin hurriedly. Outside the gate, he angrily asked at once, âWhat the hell is going on?â
Jiang Bin said, âZhang Heng said he had chopped off Qin Haodongâs head. Iâll go back and ask him whatâs going on now.â
Zhang Heng got up in the morning and was thinking about how Jiang Bin would reward him. Suddenly, Xiahou Hongxiang and Jiang Bin came in angrily.
âI greet the GeneralsâŠâ
Before he could finish, Jiang Bin slapped him in the face and said, âBastard, didnât you say that Qin Haodong was dead? Why is he still alive now?â
