Chapter 66: Chapter 66 The Best Timing

Feeling the powerful aura emanating from the Master of Crane-haired, Tang Zhonghan’s expression became gravely serious to the utmost degree.

"It seems that heaven is set on ending my life!"

Tang Zhonghan let out a long sigh toward the sky, then his gaze fell on the Master of Crane-haired, his eyes full of intense fighting spirit.

"Hmm?"

The Master of Crane-haired frowned, speaking coldly, "Tang Zhonghan, do you truly choose the path of death?"

He had already felt the thick war intent emanating from Tang Zhonghan.

Tang Zhonghan stared fiercely at the other party and said, "Even if I hand over the Blood Bead to you, you would not spare us. Since that is the case, why should I compromise?"

The Blood Bead had the effect of preserving corpses for a thousand years without decay, and many important figures were searching for it.

Ever since he had stolen the Blood Bead from the Imperial Mausoleum, he had not had a single day of peace, either being on the run from pursuers or living in hiding.

Once someone got the Blood Bead from him, they would surely kill him to silence him.

Therefore, the Master of Crane-haired in front of him was impossible to let him go.

"Hmph!"

The Master of Crane-haired let out a cold laugh, "Since you seek death, then I will fulfill your wish!"

With a wave of his hand and a command, he bellowed, "Kill!"

"Kill!"

Five knife-wielding assassins charged directly towards Tang Zhonghan.

Tang Zhonghan stamped the ground fiercely, and his body suddenly left its original spot. Despite carrying a person on his back, his speed seemed to be unaffected, and in almost an instant, he was upon the five assassins.

"Bang!"

In just one encounter, the assassin at the forefront was struck in the chest by Tang Zhonghan’s palm and flew out, spitting blood.

"Heaven Net Hand!"

The Master of Crane-haired’s eyebrows raised, a look of solemnity appeared in his eyes, muttering to himself, "This must be the palm technique secret manual that Tang Zhonghan obtained from the ancient tomb."

Although the five assassins were not Energizing Skill Grandmasters, they were all Dark Energy Middle Stage experts and were deeply skilled in the ways of assassination. Even when facing Dark Energy Late Stage experts, they had a good chance of winning.

Yet, one of the assassins was instantly killed by Tang Zhonghan in just one encounter.

The Master of Crane-haired spoke softly, "If he weren’t still carrying a woman, I’m afraid even I would be no match for him."

At that moment, two more assassins were instantly killed.

The remaining two assassins, seeing three companions killed in mere seconds, had fear in their eyes.

The two exchanged a glance, a ruthless look in their eyes, then both took out a red pill and ingested it.

"Boom!"

After the two consumed the pills, two terrifying auras erupted from their bodies.

Their eyes instantly turned blood-red, their facial expressions ferocious, like two fierce beasts.

Tang Zhonghan’s face was stern as he shouted, "Heretical paths, you dare to show off your slight skills in front of me? Kill!"

The moment his words fell, he had already charged toward the last two assassins.

"Roar!"

The two assassins let out a mournful roar from their mouths, charging into battle.

In almost an instant, Tang Zhonghan collided with the two assassins, and between them, the strongest killing moves were unleashed and fell upon each other.

Just then, the Master of Crane-haired’s figure flickered, and in almost an instant, he appeared behind Tang Zhonghan.

"Die!"

The Master of Crane-haired spat out a word, his right palm ferociously descending upon the woman on Tang Zhonghan’s back.

"No!"

Feeling the murderous intent from behind, Tang Zhonghan, who had just launched an attack on two assassins, let out an angry roar.

He stomped fiercely on the ground, forcefully twisting his body in an attempt to dodge the Master of Crane-haired’s lethal move for the girl on his back.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

At the same time, the attacks from the two assassins viciously landed on the side of Tang Zhonghan’s body.

The Master of Crane-haired’s lethal move struck the other side of Tang Zhonghan’s body.

"Pfft!"

Three attacks landed on Tang Zhonghan at the same moment, and with a violent spurt of blood, his body was sent flying toward the direction of the two assassins.

Together with the two assassins, they flew out more than ten meters.

"Chen Jinsong!"

Tang Zhonghan almost seemed to grind his teeth as he roared out the name of the Master of Crane-haired.

Had he reacted even a moment slower just now, Chen Jinsong’s full-powered strike would have landed on his granddaughter.

Even he, after receiving that blow, had sustained heavy injuries, it was clear to imagine, had that strike landed on his granddaughter, she likely would have been obliterated.

"Hmph!"

Chen Jinsong’s mouth curled up with a trace of coldness as he stared at Tang Zhonghan and said, "You really are a fool, if you hadn’t protected your granddaughter just now, it would have been my turn to be afraid."

"But you chose to protect a dying person and, as a result, you’re about to lose your own life."

"Pfft!"

Tang Zhonghan spat out another mouthful of blood, his breathing plummeted to the bottom of the valley, he knew, in this condition, let alone killing Chen Jinsong, he probably couldn’t even touch Chen Jinsong’s clothes.

"Even in death, you won’t get the Blood Bead!"

Tang Zhonghan’s bloodshot eyes fixed sternly on Chen Jinsong as he spoke.

As his words ended, he shakily stood up, gave Chen Jinsong a final look filled with hatred, and then, carrying his granddaughter on his back, he prepared to leap into the raging river behind him.

"Tang Zhonghan!"

Chen Jinsong roared angrily, rushing out instantly. Just as Tang Zhonghan leaped up, about to fall into the river, Chen Jinsong struck out with a powerful palm.

"Bang!"

His palm landed on the chest of the girl behind Tang Zhonghan, and a crimson bead flew out of the girl’s mouth.

"Splash!"

Immediately after, Tang Zhonghan and the girl fell into the river and vanished without a trace.

Chen Jinsong held a blood-red bead in his hand, unable to resist laughing out loud, "It’s the Blood Bead! It indeed is the Blood Bead!"

Just as Tang Zhonghan fell into the river, the entire Jiangcheng City was searching for him.

Meanwhile, at Jiangcheng City, atop the Black Dragon Building, in the Chairman’s Office.

Hua Xiong stood in front of the desk and said solemnly, "Chairman, nobody has found Tang Zhonghan yet."

Worry clouded Zhang Longwang’s features, "It seems, Song Qingshan must have been seriously injured, otherwise, why would he offer a bounty of a hundred million to find Tang Zhonghan?"

It was he who had called in a favor to ask Tang Zhonghan to make a strike against Song Qingshan. According to his instructions, Tang Zhonghan was to kill Song Qingshan, but now, Tang Zhonghan had lost contact, and the Song Family was offering a sky-high bounty to find him.

In his view, it was obviously because Tang Zhonghan had seriously injured Song Qingshan that the Song Family was spending such a large sum to find him.

Hua Xiong suddenly spoke up, "Chairman, I think now is the best time to strike at the Song Family!"

"Oh?"

Zhang Longwang looked at Hua Xiong with intrigue.

Hua Xiong explained, "Even Tang Zhonghan has failed, which is enough to show that Song Qingshan’s Martial Path Realm not only recovered to its peak but even broke through to Energizing Skill."

"And now, he’s at his most seriously injured, also making it the best moment to kill him. If we miss this chance, once he recovers, it will be even harder to kill him."
