Chapter 225: Chapter 225: Crisis Everywhere _1
In an instant, the two assassins felt as if they had plunged into an ice cellar, a fear akin to the brink of death overtook them, rendering their limbs immovable, having forgotten how to resist.
All they could do now was lift their heads and watch with wide-open eyes as Ye Ming descended from the sky, appearing like the personification of the Killer God at that moment.
"How is this possible?"
"Why has it come to this?"
These were their last thoughts before death claimed them.
"The reason they’re offering a king’s ransom as a bounty, you should have guessed the task would be this difficult! Risk is proportional to reward, this is the price of your greed!"
Ye Ming’s voice echoed in their ears, the last sound they would hear before death.
Two thuds were heard as the two assassins hit the ground.
Ye Ming didn’t relax his vigilance at this time but turned his gaze to the distance.
An off-road vehicle was speeding over, heading straight for Ye Ming without any intention to slow down—the driver clearly intended to take Ye Ming’s life.
Ye Ming stood erect and unmoving, silently waiting for the car to reach him.
"If you don’t dodge, you’re going to die!" The assassin in the car flashed a vicious smile, as if he could already see the hefty bounty waving at him.
However, when the car reached Ye Ming, there was suddenly a loud bang. The vehicle didn’t so much as graze him but collided with a golden light.
The assassin in the car, head bleeding and battered, stared at Ye Ming with a dumbfounded expression, his face etched with disbelief.
"What on earth was that golden light?"
With a smile, Ye Ming approached the car window and said, "You’re with them, so if they’re dead, you’re not going to live either."
After recovering, the assassin inside the car cracked a smile and said viciously, "If the car can’t kill you, I don’t believe you aren’t afraid of guns."
As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately pulled out the handgun from his waist, aimed it at Ye Ming’s head, and pulled the trigger.
After a loud bang, Ye Ming remained completely unharmed.
"What the hell are you, human or ghost?" The person inside the car started cursing exasperatedly.
Ye Ming paid no attention but reached in and dragged the person out with a speed faster than lightning, breaking his neck. fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm
Having dealt with this group of assassins, Ye Ming did not let his guard down, believing that other assassins must still be hiding within Ningjiang City, ready to strike at him at any moment.
Therefore, he swaggered openly through the streets, aiming to draw everyone’s attention.
At the same time, he unleashed all his cultivation, carefully sensing every rustle around him.
Whenever he passed a secluded alleyway, groups of assassins would swarm out, launching frenzied attacks akin to rabid dogs.
To deal with them, Ye Ming’s method was as decisive as dealing with mad dogs, snapping their necks with the cleanest technique; in the blink of an eye, there were bodies strewn everywhere.
In just one afternoon, Ye Ming had already dispatched dozens of mad dogs, but this was still far from enough.
The number of people drawn by the high bounty was greater still, and now that he had started, Ye Ming had no qualms about taking them all down today.
As night fell silently, Ye Ming stood alone atop an abandoned factory, overlooking humanity below.
He knew that the day’s assailants were merely the lowest level; the real masters would move at night.
So, Ye Ming deliberately exposed his whereabouts to alert these masters and have them come to him.
The nightlife in Ningjiang City was spectacular, and he had no desire to kill among crowded places.
And this abandoned factory was the perfect place for murder.
Suddenly, under the moonlight, a cold glint flashed.
A sharp dagger suddenly appeared in the night sky, lunging at Ye Ming.
Ye Ming cracked a smile and said lightly, "Good timing."
His body moved back slightly, evading the sharp blade, and then he struck with a heavy punch, hitting a black-clothed person behind him.
There was a thud as Ye Ming’s fist hit the man’s body, making a sound as if piercing flesh.
"You are the first one to seek death, no need for pleasantries on your way out."
Having said that coldly, Ye Ming pushed the body off the high building, and it crashed harshly to the ground.
Following that, two more men in black appeared on the rooftop.
Having witnessed Ye Ming’s method of killing, a chill rose in their hearts.
"The second and third!" Ye Ming didn’t wait for them to make their move, choosing instead to strike first.
He would never be soft or merciful with enemies.
All the more so for those who came to take his life for money, Ye Ming was even less likely to be lenient with them.
He unleashed his absolute strength, his figure flashed, appearing behind them.
"Farewell!" As soon as the words left his mouth, he slammed their heads together violently, and a mist of blood scattered with the wind, the air filling with the stench of blood.
Without a moment’s pause, the roar of engines came from below.
Looking down, Ye Ming saw three vehicles approaching in the darkness.
"Haha, didn’t expect this idiot to deliver himself to death, even choosing a nice spot for us!"
"In this deserted place, we can let loose without fear of being discovered!"
"One billion in bounty is waving at us, brothers, let’s get moving!"
From the three vehicles, three blond, blue-eyed men alighted, known internationally as the ferocious Bounty Hunter Squad, who would do anything for money, their methods extremely ruthless.
Just a few days earlier, they had received this huge contract and immediately prepared to assassinate Ye Ming.
They had state-of-the-art equipment, but when they saw Ye Ming was alone, one of them decisively chose to forgo heavy weaponry.
"If it’s just him, let’s give him a proper game! It’s been a long while since I’ve felt the thrill of a slaughter; leave this kid to me!"
"Kevin, I think we should be more cautious; if the target were just an ordinary person, there would definitely not be a billion-dollar bounty on his head."
"Relax, pal, you saw it too, Ye Ming is just an ordinary guy with maybe some fighting skills, but there are three of us! Since you’re scared to go, let me have some fun with him."
"I’ll be taking a bigger share of the bounty when this is over!"
After getting out of the cars, they started discussing loudly, completely disregarding Ye Ming.
At that moment, a cold glint flashed in Ye Ming’s eyes. With a leap, he jumped straight down from the top of the building and said to the three men, "I’m still alive, and you’re already discussing how to split the money? Underestimating your opponent will make you suffer consequences you can’t endure."
"Kid, to us, you’re nothing but a billion-dollar bounty that can move. Since you jumped down yourself, you saved us the trouble of climbing up, so die!"
