17 Assassination attempt

According to the information given to him by Zhi Yin, the guards who were patrolling the palace were stationed in such a way that between their rounds a small gap would form through which Mo Fan, and the rest of his group would be able to approach Li Feng's courtyard without being detected.

This gap of course was created by Zhi Yin, and this didn't just exist among the soldiers who guarded the area which contained Li Feng's courtyard.

As the prime minister of the kingdom, Zhi Yin had planned far ahead after taking control of the soldiers guarding the entire estate to leave gaps wherever possible so that if and when needed, his assassins would not run into any troubles when killing any of his targets.

Rushing forward along with his group, Mo Fan had no idea that his plan was doomed to fail since the beginning.

…

"Hahahahaha, this is what I love about these trash."

Laughing coldly as he stood up, Zhi Yin was playing with a green coloured marble as he pulled the door on the floor open and walked inside the basement.

Licking his lips as his loins instantly started heating up from the view inside his basement, Zhi Yin placed the green marble on a table and said, "Your luck is too bad bitch. Your husband dared to think about betraying me."

Approaching one of the many tied up naked women who trembled when she heard those words, Zhi Yin stretched his tongue like a snake and licked the woman's exotic neck.

Looking towards all of the women who were related to Mo Fan and the rest of the men in his group, Zhi Yin with a lustful grin said, "Unfortunately, I can't kill that bastard right now. Therefore, you'll have to bear the punishment in his place."

Saying so, Zhi Yin stripped and began enjoying himself by not leaving even a single woman inside his basement untouched.

After all, what he was going to do was prepare the reward to Mo Fan and the others for finishing the job he gave them.

Just imagining how Mo Fan and the others would feel once they saw his gift, which was the bodies of their mothers, wives, and daughters covered in his jizz, Zhi Yin turned even more perverted and unleashed all of his deep dark fetishes.

...

'They're finally here.'

Resting all alone in the backyard of his courtyard, Li Feng who was seated on a chair continued looking towards the wall in front of him with the same expression but was more vigilant than before.

Even though he considered everyone as his whetstone and very only good for sharpening himself, excluding Yu Yan whom he used as a sparring partner, this was going to be Li Feng's first time taking part in real combat.

And not just any combat, this was going to be a life and death battle where only he would live, or they would live.

Eyes turning sharp as his ears trembled ever so lightly from picking up the sound of a barely noticeable footstep, Li Feng's vision was filled with one dumbstruck standing on top of the wall as if he was a scarecrow.

"Why did you stop? Didn't you come here to kill me?"

Not replying to Li Feng, the man on the wall began looking around to see there were any experts around. After all, since their target was expecting them, how could there not be an ambush?

But, no matter how much he looked, all he found was a woman who was too beautiful to be a maid standing not too far away from their target.

"What happened, number two?"

"The target knew about us beforehand."

"This…. Is there an ambush?"

"...No."

Silence.

Not speaking anything for a while, the man on the wall felt awkward from not knowing where to look at because Li Feng was looking straight towards him with a mysterious smile while leisurely waving the fan in his hand which was shining under the serene moonlight.

Gritting his teeth, Mo Fan who was the leader of the group and therefore was responsible to decide if they were going to attack or retreat got on top of the wall as well to make a decision.

'Hmmmm… It's just the two of them here…. So why is that brat looking so confident?'

Desperately pushing down the uneasy feeling, Mo Fan looked towards his brother whom he had gone through life and death battles with and said, "Attack!!!"

Seeing all of this, Li Feng continued looking at ease with the jade fan still moving up and down.

'Qi Cultivators.'

To find out which path a cultivator had chosen, just a single look towards them was enough to do so.

If one was a Qi Cultivator, the moment they lost control of their emotions, or they took a battle stance, the Qi around them would show subtle changes which could easily be noticed as long as one paid proper attention.

And if he was a Body Cultivator, they wouldn't even need to do anything and just sit there while letting their overflowing vitality do the job for them.

Given how strong the bodies of the Body Cultivators were, they needed to have enough vitality to support their bodies functioning.

Standing not too far from Li Feng, Yu Yan after assessing the strength of the assassins felt a little more at ease while still staying ready to step in at any moment. After all, what she promised Li Feng was to not interfere as long as he wasn't in any danger.

The moment she felt that things were bad, she wouldn't care about how Li Feng felt and would turn this place into the grave of those assassins.
