Chapter 226: Chapter 0226 Assassination [Part II]

Chu Feng rolled away, and immediately a bullet grazed his back and buried itself into the ground.

Chu Feng, shielding Zhuang Xinyan, took cover behind a rock.

Although Zhuang Xinyan’s hair was in disarray at this moment, her face remained composed.

Chu Feng looked at Zhuang Xinyan and spoke with a bit of dismay, "Can’t you act a little scared? At least then I might feel like a hero."

Zhuang Xinyan replied, "In my heart, you are a hero, and I know you can save me. Why should I pretend to be scared? Besides, my fear would only distract you and add to the chaos."

With such a clever woman, Chu Feng really didn’t know what to say.

In the end, Chu Feng sighed and said, "Being with you is really a blow to a man’s confidence."

Zhuang Xinyan thought for a moment and said, "I know why so many people like me, but no one dares to pursue me."

Chu Feng really felt a surge to spit blood three times.

"Big sister, we are running for our lives, not discussing whether people are pursuing you or not. Can’t you at least pretend to be scared for a bit?"

However, Chu Feng knew that saying this was futile, so he might as well not say it at all.

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

Suddenly, three iron tribuli flew through the air. Arranged in the shape of the character ’品’, they completely blocked all of Chu Feng’s possible escape routes.

Now, if Chu Feng wanted to escape, he could only run towards the side without any rock cover.

But if he did that, he would be exposed to the sniper’s line of fire.

Although he was a Yellow Level Late Stage master, it didn’t mean he was immune to swords and guns, especially since he was holding Zhuang Xinyan.

He could dodge bullets, but could Zhuang Xinyan?

Bang!

Chu Feng clapped his hands in the air, and immediately, a torrent of inner strength surged out.

Chu Feng was a bit of a freak; although he was only at Yellow Level Late Stage Cultivation, he could project his inner strength outward.

Clearly, the attacker did not expect Chu Feng to be capable of this.

The roaring inner strength blocked all the iron tribuli, but it only slowed them down momentarily.

However, a moment’s delay was already enough for Chu Feng.

Chu Feng caught the three iron tribuli in his hand, then raised his hand and sent them flying back.

"Puff!"

The iron tribuli pierced through the woods opposite Chu Feng. Although there were no screams, Chu Feng knew he had certainly injured someone hiding in the shadows.

Just then, gunfire erupted from the opposite hillside, obviously from Zhuang Xinyan’s bodyguards.

In fact, all these actions, while they seem slow in description, all took place within just five minutes.

For ordinary people, five minutes is brief. However, for assassins, it’s enough time to carry out several assassinations and set-ups.

Chu Feng did not chase the assassins hiding in the forest, worried that someone might take advantage of his absence to attack Zhuang Xinyan again.

"Your bodyguards are very quick to react," Chu Feng said, listening to the sporadic gunfire from the other side.

Zhuang Xinyan said, "They are still far inferior to you. Sometimes I really envy Rongrong. Not only did she find such a wise boyfriend, but she also found a bodyguard with such terrifying skills. If Rongrong doesn’t mind, I really want to share you with her."

When Chu Feng heard Zhuang Xinyan’s words, he also felt a bit sweaty.

If it were Cui Jingyan who had said this, Chu Feng would definitely have teased her a bit.

But when Zhuang Xinyan said it, Chu Feng felt quite uneasy.

This serious form of teasing was really more than Chu Feng could handle.

Zhuang Xinyan looked at Chu Feng and said, "You’re really no fun, not even letting me enjoy being teased even once."

Chu Feng truly felt driven crazy. He would rather rush into the woods to beat up that assassin than stay with Zhuang Xinyan.

Zhuang Xinyan’s bodyguards quickly located Zhuang Xinyan and Chu Feng.

The bodyguards were surprised to see Zhuang Xinyan quietly lying in Chu Feng’s arms.

But that was only for a moment. They were professional bodyguards; they knew what to see and what not to see, what to interfere with and what not to interfere with.

"The sniper facing the young lady has committed suicide. No traces were left at the scene, making it impossible to determine the assassin’s identity," the Bodyguard Captain reported.

Zhuang Xinyan straightened her clothes and rose from Chu Feng’s embrace, saying, "I understand."

This was obviously not beyond Zhuang Xinyan’s expectations, so she wasn’t surprised or felt the gore.

Looking at Zhuang Xinyan, Chu Feng suddenly felt a pang of sympathy.

How many more assassination attempts must Zhuang Xinyan endure to have cultivated such a mentality?

In contrast, An Rongrong was far more fortunate.

Because the An Family did not push her forward, but her brother instead.

Although An Rongrong also faced dangers, they were not frequent.

"Captain, we found a pool of blood and three of these hidden weapons in the woods opposite us," reported the person responsible for searching the woods, returning with three Iron Tribulus in hand.

The Bodyguard Captain looked at the Iron Tribulus in his subordinate’s hand and couldn’t help but frown.

"Do you recognize it?" Chu Feng noticed the Bodyguard Captain’s expression and asked.

The Bodyguard Captain, aware of Chu Feng’s identity, replied directly, "I recognize it. My grandfather was killed by one of these Eastern Ninja’s hidden weapons."

The Bodyguard Captain was obviously a trained fighter and quite skilled likely his grandfather was a master as well.

Chu Feng continued, "Do you know where it came from?"

The Bodyguard Captain nodded and answered, "I do. This should belong to the Iga Family of the Eastern."

Because of his grandfather’s death, the Bodyguard Captain had conducted extensive research on Eastern ninjas and knew some unique markings of the different ninja families.

"It’s related to the Elite Society," thought Chu Feng.

Chu Feng had some knowledge about the Elite Society and knew that the Iga Family was one of its major forces.

"Let’s head back for now, it’s not safe here." Of course, Chu Feng wouldn’t discuss matters concerning the Elite Society with them.

This was Dragon Soaring’s business and didn’t need to be known by the Zhuang Family.

Zhuang Xinyan evidently noticed this too, but being a clever woman, she didn’t ask any questions.

After everyone left, Chu Feng went straight home, as Zhuang Xinyan was well-protected by many bodyguards, truly not needing Chu Feng’s concern. As for the situation on the mountain, Zhuang Family would naturally take care of it.

As soon as Chu Feng got home, he received a call from Elder Zhuang. Elder Zhuang naturally expressed his gratitude toward Chu Feng.

After hanging up with Elder Zhuang, Chu Feng received a call from Xie Mengying who asked him to rush back to school immediately.
