Chapter 1699 1703: Remember to Take Revenge on Me
"Do you dare?"
"What do I have not to dare?" Zhang Menglong looked at the dark mist and haze, "What, my words don't work?"
The two gritted their teeth; they didn't expect Zhang Menglong to provoke such a troublesome existence this time.
Don't be fooled by the Skyless Realm's arrogance here; in front of those Ninth Grade Empires, it's nothing more than an ant. They simply have no reason or idle time to deal with the Skyless Realm.
If they truly wanted to eradicate the Skyless Realm, a prominent family from the Hong Yun Empire could definitely achieve it, which is why this young master from the Mu Family is so arrogant in the Skyless Realm.
"You two do have some foresight," the young man said to the two from the dark mist, "Are you the bodyguards of this Skyless Realm? Hiring two Divine Cultivator Eighth Grade bodyguards, you do have some skill, but ask them if they dare to touch me."
"What? Are you trying to make me angry?" Seeing the dark mist and haze hesitant, Zhang Menglong's anger rose, "It seems my ancient ghostly cold flame didn't burn you enough last time."
Instantly, a chill was released from their bodies.
The two exchanged glances; Zhang Menglong had solemnly warned them last time that if there was another time, he would take their lives. Now they had no choice!
Either suffer retaliation from the Mu Family and die months later or die now. Clearly, this choice didn't require much thought.
Their eyes sharpened, and they charged straight towards the young man.
"Sir, please do not..."
"What? As a first-class citizen of the Skyless Realm, can't I hit back if insulted by a low-level citizen?" Zhang Menglong said, "If something gets broken, I'll pay double. It's not like I don't have the strength."
In the blink of an eye, the dark mist and haze appeared beside the young man, but faced with two Divine Cultivator Eighth Grade experts, he showed no fear, even a hint of a cold smile at the corner of his mouth.
This time, too, he was out on a task assigned by his family. For his protection, the family equipped him with four bodyguards. Otherwise, how could he travel alone to the Skyless Realm, even strutting around? He might have been beaten to death long ago.
As the two swung their big slaps towards the young man's face, their hands were grabbed by two other formidable arms.
The two exchanged glances; they naturally knew that the young man most likely had bodyguards by his side, so they were wary, but clearly, the young man's bodyguards were probably stronger than the two of them!
If it were a few days ago, this force might have broken their arms, but now, it's just severe pain. There's a gap in strength, but not a vast difference!
The two's power erupted, immediately freeing themselves from the arms and returned to Zhang Menglong's side.
"Divine Cultivator Eighth Grade at the initial stage, having such power, the Skyless Realm isn't entirely useless!" Several slightly aged voices sounded beside the young man, and four identically dressed people slowly appeared, protecting the young man from all directions, densely packing with protection.
"Four Divine Cultivator Eighth Grade experts." Zhang Menglong stroked his chin, "Impressive, no wonder you're so arrogant."
Zhang Menglong noticed that these four people were roughly in the middle stage of Divine Cultivator Eighth Grade, and their strength was formidable. If the dark mist and haze hadn't unlocked their potential, the two would likely have been injured.
"What, aren't you going to hit me? I'm standing here, try it?" The young man's provocation escalated, "I'll give you a chance, cede this spot to me. I don't have time to come back tomorrow. If you crawl out of here, I'll let bygones be bygones."
"Is that so?" Zhang Menglong smiled again, "Night Hand, it's time for you to act, take care of those four!"
It seemed as though Zhang Menglong was talking to himself, but a faint voice came from the void.
"Understood!"
"Kill intent!"
In that instant, the four bodyguards felt an overwhelming kill intent attacking from all directions, with 27 strands of kill intent tightly locking them in place.
Aside from the four main bodyguards, the young man also felt the overwhelming kill intent, his body trembling uncontrollably, "What's going on?"
"Young Master, there are twenty-plus strands of kill intent targeting us, we now..."
Suddenly, a bloody mark sliced across the bodyguard's throat, followed by several fleeting shadows and the smell of blood, the entire hall returned to tranquility.
The bodyguard who spoke now had a blood arrow from his neck, and black daggers appeared in vital areas like his head and chest.
He remained standing but had lost all signs of life.
"Third Brother!"
The remaining three bodyguards rushed to aid him, but his cold corpse collapsed.
With 27 Divine Cultivator Eighth Grades attacking, and even Night Hand being half step Ninth Grade, they had no chance of resists.
In direct confrontation, assassins are indeed weak, but in ambush, they're deadly. Being in the assassin profession means low health and weak defense, but high attack and crit.
But this was just the beginning, as Zhang Menglong demanded that all four bodyguards be eliminated!
Once again, mirage-like shadows passed by, and the second bodyguard fell into the blood pond.
Then the third, the fourth!
This was a slaughter without suspense.
All four were dead, and the remaining nihilistic kill intent vanished instantly, leaving only the trembling young man.
"Can you help tidy up here?" Zhang Menglong asked the staff beside him, "Their citizen status should be lower than mine, right? If I kill them, I shouldn't be held accountable, right?"
"Certainly," the staff bowed deeply, the brief slaughter didn't cause any damage to the bank, they were just dealing with some bodies that the bank had already seen too frequently.
Soon, the four corpses and bloodstains were cleaned up, and others in the hall briefly glanced and focused on their own business because such events occurred at least tens of thousands of times daily in the Skyless Realm, nothing surprising.
"Go on, give him two big slaps!" Zhang Menglong instructed the dark mist and haze.
"Smack!" Two loud slaps echoed throughout the business hall, and the young man, without his bodyguards, was now a weak lamb.
Two red handprints appeared on his face, the bones in his face shattered, blood flowed continuously from the corner of his mouth, at this moment, due to extreme fear, even his breathing became labored.
This time, he only had these four bodyguards, not doing anything excessive, he could easily return to the Hong Yun Empire.
Who knew this unknown person's group would have dozens of powerful assassins, several ambushes killing all his bodyguards.
Now he was left without any backing, unless he returns to the Hong Yun Empire... but, can he even go back?
"Weren't you arrogant just now? Can you still talk?" Zhang Menglong coldly smirked at him.
"Night Hand," Zhang Menglong said, "From now on, find someone to follow him, slap him twice every morning when he wakes up, and twice before he sleeps until he leaves the Skyless Realm."
"Yes, Mr. Gu."
...
"Oh, by the way, I won't kill you," Zhang Menglong added before leaving, "I hope once you are in the Hong Yun Empire, you'll use all your means to retaliate against me; I think I'll be very much anticipating your methods."
