Chapter 168: Authentic Water Drawing Array of Imperial Dragon

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

Xu Fan wasn’t actually afraid of the Assassin Alliance, it was just that assassins were a bunch of extremely despicable and sly people, who excelled at stabbing others in the back.

Xu Fan couldn’t possibly be on guard every single moment for an assassin that might suddenly spring out from some corner to kill him. Besides, now that he had a family to care for, with a daughter like Tongtong and Xu Yixue, who was an inextricable part of his life, there were many more constraints. To comprehensively protect them was proving to be quite troublesome.

“Is there any way to avoid alerting the Assassin Organization?” Xu Fan asked with a frown.

“There’s only one way, which is for us to live by completing our mission, that is, to kill you,” Mackenzie said mechanically.

He wasn’t going to lie now, so when Xu Fan heard what he said, he knew that the situation was basically unsolvable.

Since it was unsolvable, Xu Fan didn’t ponder it further. What about the Assassin Alliance? If you anger me, I will turn you into a Burial Alliance.

You want to kill me? You can try.

Seeing that Mackenzie had no more use to him, Xu Fan nodded toward him and said, “I’ve got the information now, and it’s time to send you off.”

With that, Xu Fan formed a sword finger with his right hand, and a beam of golden Qi Force shot out from his fingertip, piercing straight through Mackenzie’s head.

“Boom!”

Mackenzie was lifeless and collapsed to the ground with a thunderous fall.

Xu Fan picked up Mackenzie’s corpse and carried it over to Sandru.

Although Sandru had made contact with Xu Fan earlier, his constitution was even better than Mackenzie’s. At this point, he was still clinging to life and hadn’t died.

A cold and fierce look appeared in Xu Fan’s eyes.

Both of these men were assassins who wanted his life. In Xu Fan’s creed, there was never mercy, only killing to stop killing.

Xu Fan’s sword finger shot out a beam of golden light viciously toward Sandru’s heart.

Sandru’s body twitched twice and then lay still.

Xu Fan found a pit in the woods and stacked both bodies back to back in it.

Since they were brothers in life and death, Xu Fan let them die together, which could be considered a good deed.

After placing the bodies, Xu Fan leaped up from the jungle and struck a palm with force beside the pit.

“Boom!” Immediately, the pile of earth beside the pit vibrated violently under the force of Xu Fan’s palm and collapsed instantly.

The “Mountain Chicken Combo” was instantly buried together in the pit.

Xu Fan silently glanced at the pit, then turned and left without hesitation.

Stepping out of the jungle, Xu Fan returned once again to the large rock from which Mackenzie had sniped at him. The Type 56 semi-automatic rifle, which had been severed by the alloy hunting knife, still lay on the ground, covered in Mackenzie’s blood.

Xu Fan picked up the gun, now broken in two, and squeezed hard with his hands.

The hard firearm parts were crushed into scrap by Xu Fan’s grip, and he then threw the twisted metal pieces in all directions with his qi force. Even a gunsmith would be unable to recognize that the scraps scattered in the forest were once a rifle.

Xu Fan then took the alloy hunting knife from the rock. The knife’s streamlined design was impressive, and the blue glow shimmering on the blade was rather cool. Most importantly, it was extremely sharp, slicing through the hard gun barrel as if it were tofu, and not even a nick was left on the blade’s surface.

Using three parts of his strength, Xu Fan tried to break the knife, only to see the wide back of the blade bend slightly without breaking under his powerful grip. When Xu Fan released his strength, the combat knife miraculously returned to its original shape.

Earlier, when Xu Fan crushed Mackenzie’s gun, he had only used two parts of his strength; now, with three parts, he still couldn’t damage the knife.

Xu Fan couldn’t help but marvel at the quality of the knife and, rather than continue to stress it, he decided to keep it in his hand.

Holding his trophy, Xu Fan began to ascend the mountain. Arriving at the spot where Mackenzie first shot at him, he picked up his backpack and herbs that still lay on the ground, and once again started sprinting towards the mountain peak.

Yulong Mountain was steep and treacherous. Although it was just over two thousand meters high, ordinary people needed four hours to climb it. But Xu Fan’s speed was many times faster than that of an ordinary person. Discounting the time spent fighting the pheasant group, it took him nearly an hour to reach the top.

Atop Yulong Mountain stood a temple with a history of several hundred years.

The temple wasn’t large, but it was a cultural relic under the protection of Zhonghai City’s authorities. Rumor had it that monks once resided there, but they were disbanded by the cultural heritage department of Zhonghai City for privately raising funds.

Thus, Yulong Temple was now almost devoid of people.

Usually, a man in his sixties lived in the temple, tasked with its care to prevent collapse or fire. However, following a recent incident involving middle school students, the administrators of Zhonghai City called the old man down, citing recent disturbances on Yulong Mountain and aiming to prevent another missing person case.

Consequently, the gates of Yulong Temple were tightly locked, and it was utterly deserted.

Xu Fan wasn’t deterred by the locked gates; with a push of his feet, his body floated up like a swallow, and in an instant, he flew over the red walls of Yulong Temple and landed inside.

Xu Fan placed his backpack and herbs on the blue stone floor of the courtyard, and then with a leaping technique, he jumped to the highest point of the main hall of Yulong Temple.

Yulong Temple had two stories. The roof tiles were unique green glazed tiles from several hundred years ago. Xu Fan walked on them with great care, afraid of damaging the centuries-old treasures.

Standing at the highest point of Yulong Temple, Xu Fan looked down at the mountain. The layout of Yulong Mountain resembled a massive formation, tightly encircling the temple in its center.

After a thorough investigation, Xu Fan found the arrangement and formation around Yulong Mountain eerily similar to the one surrounding the villa of Lu Chennong, known as “Zhonghai’s Number One Estate.”

Both had the shape of “embracing the mountain and facing the water,” both employed the Water-Drawing Array of Imperial Dragon. However, the array near Lu Chennong’s villa was only a miniature version, relying narrowly on the modest topographic features of rivers and mountains given its central location in Zhonghai City. In contrast, the formation on Yulong Mountain was complete. It continuously absorbed spiritual energy from all the mountains and rivers around into the vicinity of the temple.

Xu Fan had the impression that the designer of Lu Chennong’s villa had drawn inspiration from the Water-Drawing Array of Imperial Dragon on this mountain to create the miniature version of the formation next to the villa.
