Chapter 244: Chapter 187: Who Fired the Gun? (Please Subscribe )_3
The Asura Sect was best known for their assassination skills!
If they were targeting Feng Zhaoqing for assassination, they were confident they could kill him within a single move, leaving him no chance to fight back!
However, these two did not take action.
Their target was Xu Yang!
According to the rules of the Asura Sect, they would never give up on a mission. If they failed once, they would try twice; if they failed twice, they would try thrice – it would only end when their target was dead!
Since the revival of the spiritual aura, there’s only been one person that the Asura Sect has failed to assassinate…
That person is Wang Hou!
They would never allow a second person to survive their attempts!
If that were to happen, where would the Asura Sect’s face be?
That’s why this time, they’ve sent out their top two gold medal assassins… both of whom have never failed in their careers. They were skilled in disguises and hiding their presence, ranking among the best assassins in the Asura Sect.
At this moment.
The reporters arranged by Feng Zhaoqing played their part. One of them asked loudly, “Captain Feng, what’s the reason for opening the martial arts academies of Da Xia? There are rumors online that practicing martial arts can help strengthen the body and practicing Daoism can nourish the mind… Is this the only reason?”
Feng Zhaoqing’s smile gradually faded, and he looked serious, “If the purpose of practicing martial arts and Daoism is only to strengthen the body, then why would the country invest so much in opening these academies?”
“As I mentioned earlier, the duty of our Supernatural Affairs Bureau is to solve supernatural cases and protect the people!”
“Do you have any idea how many people have died due to various supernatural incidents in the past ten years?”
“Do you have any idea how many people have sacrificed themselves to protect their families and country since the formation of the Supernatural Affairs Bureau?”
Feng Zhaoqing shouted a series of numbers!
The bloody figures silenced the scene.
The reporter cautiously asked, “Captain Feng, what exactly are the supernatural cases you were talking about? Are they ghosts? Demons? Zombies, or something similar?”
Feng Zhaoqing didn’t answer.
However, his silence was food for thought.
Just then, Xu Yang’s car arrived.
Feng Zhaoqing glanced at him and resumed his smiling face, “You were asking who’s in charge of Wu City Martial Arts Academy, right? Well, here he is…”
He pointed to Xu Yang.
At the same time, the reporters all turned their “guns” in Xu Yang’s direction.
Among the crowd, the two assassins exchanged a glance.
One of them quietly took out a gun with a silencer from their pocket.
“Using a gun?”
Another one whispered, “They say Xu Yang is good at drawing Daoist talismans, so he must have something like a Diamond Talisman as a protective charm. Can a gun kill him?”
“This gun is the latest weapon developed by a foreign military. It’s so powerful that it can easily kill an elephant with a single shot… Moreover, the bullet is made of a new composite metal that can penetrate both primordial energy and magic… Xu Yang, a Daoist cultivator with a weak flesh, won’t stand a chance against my bullet, even if he has a Diamond Talisman to protect himself!”
The man silently aimed the gun at Xu Yang.
He hid in the crowd, with the gun concealed in a bag, and nobody sensed anything strange.
Meanwhile, Xu Yang was faced with a group of reporters.
“Hello, are you the head of Wu City Martial Arts Academy?”
“Sir, are you a martial artist?”
“There are various realms of martial arts online. Which realm have you reached?”
Damn it!
So many reporters?
Xu Yang patiently said, “Everyone, please, one question at a time… First of all, I am not a martial artist, I am a Daoist cultivator!”
“Daoist cultivator?”
A reporter asked, “Sir, what’s the difference between a Daoist cultivator and a martial artist?”
Xu Yang thought for a moment and answered seriously, “A Daoist cultivator focuses on refining Qi and cultivating the Dao, while a martial artist emphasizes physical training and strengthening their blood and energy. Physically speaking, martial artists have strong flesh, while Daoist cultivators are weak…”
He paused and continued, “For example, a martial arts Grandmaster could likely withstand a gunshot without the bullet penetrating their flesh. A Daoist cultivator wouldn’t fare as well; if they were shot at close range, they might die with a single bullet!”
Pfft!
Just as Xu Yang finished speaking.
A faint sound came from the crowd.
The next moment, a Diamond Talisman on Xu Yang’s body exploded automatically. Before he could react, the protective golden light shattered, and he felt a piercing pain in his forehead…
Ding!
A deformed bullet fell to the ground near Xu Yang’s feet, bouncing a few times and making a crisp sound.
“Ow…”
Xu Yang cried out, covering his forehead, “Who… Who fired that shot?”
PS: So uncomfortable!
