Episode 66 Assassination
It was already noon, and Li Yan ate his lunch with some depression. He immediately returned to the hospital. He had originally wanted to ask Ma Xiaoling, the first orthodox cultivator he met, about the Chinese cultivation world. However, he didn't expect that this little girl would come and go like a gust of wind, and she actually said goodbye and left without giving him a chance to ask questions.
At the entrance of the hospital, a large crowd had gathered. Li Yan looked over from afar and saw many familiar faces, including doctors from the hospital, such as Dr. Jiang, and Hua Qingxuan, known as the "Great National Hand". The one being warmly received was Chen Zhenbang, the mayor of Longtan City, accompanied by his ever-present bodyguard, Dong Jian.
"Ah! Mr. Li!" Chen Zhenbang, who was busy dealing with a doctor and the patient's family members, suddenly lit up in front of his eyes, saw Li Yan walking towards the hospital, and hastily shouted out in surprise, leaving behind Hua Qingxuan and others, and quickly walked over to Li Yan.
Li Yan subconsciously furrowed his brow, but knowing the other party's good intentions, wanting the hospital to be biased towards him, he could only helplessly nod at him.
Just as everyone was in a state of astonishment, Li Yan suddenly felt his body tense up, and then he felt something familiar yet strange. It had been too long since he'd experienced this feeling that he almost couldn't recall it. At this moment, he slightly turned his head, and out of the corner of his eye, a bullet was already cutting through the air.
Is it a firearm?! He subconsciously raised his hand and stopped in front of himself, the intangible and formless protective true yuan had already permeated around him.
That bullet that broke through the air and hit Li Yan's protective true yuan, instantly caused it to pause in mid-air. Following that, Li Yan raised his hand, slowly extending two fingers, and pinched the empty space.
This scene, others can't see, but Chen Zhenbang, who is facing Li Yan, sees it clearly. When he realizes the bullet is flying in front of him, his heart suddenly fills with an irrepressible sense of mortal fear. However, he never expected that Li Yan, right before his eyes, would simply flick his finger and catch the bullet that was piercing through the air.
A person caught a bullet that broke through the air with his hand, and it wasn't just an ordinary handgun bullet, but obviously some kind of high-powered sniper bullet!
Good heavens! What is this? The legendary ancient martial arts master? Or an even more mysterious existence from legend... In the blink of an eye, looking at this scene in front of him that was almost mythical, although he had already witnessed Li Yan's incredible skills when treating his father's illness before, but when this scene that should have been in a mythological story suddenly appeared in the real world, Chen Zhenbang was completely stunned.
A pair of eyes stared at Li Yan's slender white right hand, as if they had suffered from severe Alzheimer's disease, not blinking, but staring rigidly, with their whole body trembling uncontrollably.
At this moment, he really wanted to shout loudly and call others to come over and watch together to relieve his pressure, but his throat was dry and couldn't make a sound.
And Li Yan, suddenly encountered such an attack, although there were many doubts in his heart, but there was another kind of furious killing intent, and it instantly rose up from the bottom of his heart!
Kill! The other side wants to kill! Is the target himself or someone else? None of this matters anymore, because since he stepped onto the path of cultivation millions of years ago, he had already warned himself that if he wanted revenge, he must live on. If he wanted to live on, then all those who dared to kill him or wanted to kill him must die!
Because in Li Yan's view, no matter which star domain, in this world, only the dead who have lost their shape and spirit are truly harmless.
In a flash, Li Yan had already turned around, and in his eyes, two invisible and intangible rays of light shot out, directly towards the direction where the bullet came from.
His eyes were so sharp that in an instant, he had already crossed all obstacles and directly saw a blond-haired foreign man on the top of an 18-story residential building opposite the hospital. It was none other than Robert, the hitman who wanted to kill Chen Zhenbang.
At this moment, Robert was already scared stiff, his mouth wide open and almost unable to close. Did others not know that he didn't know? This sniper rifle of his was specially made, the speed and power of its bullets were formidable, even for the vast majority of top-notch masters, they would be unable to withstand it.
However, at this moment, his own bullet was caught by someone with their bare hands. The shock made him involuntarily swallow a mouthful of saliva, and he felt his body go numb.
Hallucination! Hallucination! This is absolutely a hallucination!
Robert made an effort to calm himself down, as a top-notch killer, his temperament was naturally not comparable to that of ordinary people. In an instant, he had once again taken aim at his target and pulled the trigger.
"Hmm!" Li Yan didn't expect that the other party would dare to fire a second shot after seeing his situation, which suddenly made him feel a bit angry. With a raise of his hand, the bullet was caught in his fingers without any suspense.
As a loose immortal, there are not many hot weapons that can successfully threaten him, unless they are those powerful war weapons. This sniper rifle, although it poses a threat to some innate warriors, is no different from ordinary toys for a loose immortal.
"Heavens! How is this possible, he caught it again! What kind of person is this?! In an instant, Robert's face completely changed, he knew that his second shot, made subconsciously, had brought him an unimaginable and terrifying enemy."
Even if he was an assassin, a top-notch assassin who far surpassed ordinary people, but he had never encountered such a terrifying thing, catching his own special sniper rifle's bullet with his bare hands? And it looked so natural and effortless?
Good heavens, when did the world become so crazy? What kind of demon is this that has emerged?! The mysterious Eastern world, could it be true what those senior masters said? Full of endless unknowns and mysteries!
In the midst of boundless astonishment, Robert saw that the demon directly turned around and looked at him. In that instant, the endless ferocity in its eyes made his body tremble again. Then, with a loud cry, he abandoned his sniper rifle and immediately turned to flee wildly.
In fact, to ordinary people, Li Yan's gaze may not be that fierce or intimidating, after all, on the surface, he doesn't seem to have anything different from ordinary people.
However, Robert was watching with his own eyes as the two bullets he fired were pinched between the opponent's fingers like sugar beans. In an instant, Robert had already been thoroughly frightened and felt a chill to the extreme when facing Li Yan's gaze.
At this time, he had already been thoroughly frightened out of his wits. After all, he was just an assassin, and although he possessed some martial arts skills that exceeded ordinary people's understanding, he was not a truly seasoned master who had seen it all. When he saw such a bizarre and unreasonable situation, which was not happening for the first time but for the second time in a row, his opponent's gaze clearly told him that his existence had been discovered. At this moment, facing Li Yan's gaze as he turned around to look at him, even if he were a top-notch professional assassin with extremely high mental resilience, he would still be thoroughly frightened into collapse.
At this time, Dong Jian, who was Chen Zhenbang's personal bodyguard, also reacted and immediately began to contact the people hiding in the surrounding area, taking action...
