Chapter 272: This prey, looks really good!

Chapter 272: Chapter 272: This prey, looks really good!

Vast rain night.

Darkness enveloped the island.

Lin Fan located the source of the sound.

He moved step by step toward the trap he had set.

It seemed he was about to reach the predetermined location.

Suddenly, a strong light was shone at him.

"It’s a person!"

He had thought he caught his prey.

But it turned out to be a person instead.

This unexpected discovery fueled his murderous intent.

He was out of supplies; seizing some seemed like a good idea.

"Swish!"

It was but a flash of lightning.

A sound of cutting air hit him.

The murderous slash aimed straight for Lin Fan’s neck.

Clearly, this was intended to be fatal.

It appeared the adversary had no intention of leaving a survivor.

"Quite a ruthless move!"

But of course, Lin Fan couldn’t just kill his opponent outright.

He needed to capture someone alive for interrogation first.

So he reached out with his right hand and grabbed the assailant’s wrist.

The sharp dagger in their hand was suspended just over a foot away from Lin Fan.

And then it couldn’t move any farther.

After missing the first strike, the assailant’s right knee charged toward his left flank.

Yet Lin Fan had anticipated this move.

He lifted his left foot and blocked the assault.

At the same time, he swung his left palm and slapped the attacker.

"Damn it, mother!"

Upon contact, Lin Xuan felt an unusual sensation on his hand.

And with a slender wrist caught in his grip, the attacker seemed to be a woman.

However, the flashlight had already fallen to the ground.

He didn’t care about gender differences at this point.

It was more important to subdue the adversary first.

"You perv!"

Unexpectedly, the opponent cursed him with a Chinese swear word.

The hand holding the dagger relaxed, and the weapon dropped.

Immediately she reached out with her left hand, attempting to grab the blade.

But Lin Fan was faster.

He kicked, sending the dagger flying to the side.

"So you like being touched huh? You speak Mandarin quite well!"

Convinced that she was from the Hundred Fragrance Group, Lin Fan moved forward with his left foot against her abdomen.

At the same time, he reached out with his right hand and grabbed her shoulder.

In the instant he fell backward, he pulled her body into a move like "rabbit kicking the eagle."

As she crashed to the ground, Lin Fan executed a back flip.

He landed squarely on her stomach.

He drew his arms back and used his legs to pin down her arms.

In this position, she was completely immobilized.

"You traitor, have the courage to let me go... I will definitely kill you!"

The woman beneath him struggled ceaselessly.

But her strength was too insignificant to make a difference.

Meanwhile, Lin Fan reached for the fallen flashlight and dagger on the ground.

He shone the light on the woman he was pinning down.

She turned out to be strikingly beautiful, with rosy lips and white teeth.

Her delicate features were unmistakably those of a first-rate beauty.

However, her face was now pale as paper.

Her eyes, filled with murderous fury and rage.

Lin Fan smiled, holding the dagger.

He tapped her cheek several times with it.

"Well, this prey is quite beautiful, but I’m not one to pity or spare you for that. You’d better answer my questions honestly, or I won’t mind leaving a few scars on that pretty face of yours."

"You dog of a traitor, just kill me if you dare. I won’t say a thing."

The woman’s eyes widened in defiance.

She clenched her teeth tightly.

This time, she knew she could not escape her fate.

All she wanted now was to die.

"Really? What a pity for that pretty face."

Lin Fan smiled and ran the back of his knife across her face.

That icy sensation made the woman shiver uncontrollably.

"You scoundrel, you traitorous dog... Why don’t you just do it... I’m telling you, even if I die... you won’t succeed. Prince Zhen Nan will raze this place to the ground sooner or later and avenge us!"

The woman struggled to lift her head.

She couldn’t see Lin Fan clearly at all.

But she knew that there would definitely be no allies on this island.

"Wait a minute... you call me a traitorous dog, and you’re talking about Prince Zhen Nan... who exactly are you?"

Lin Fan was startled by the other’s angry cursing.

That attitude didn’t sound like that of a villain.

"I am the ghost seeking vengeance from the Jiujui Sect, and one day, all of you from the Jiujui Sect will become spirits under my blade. Even if I die, I will turn into a vengeful ghost, and I will never let you go,"

The one shouting angrily was none other than Prince Zhen Nan’s daughter, Xu Zhi Rou.

She knew very well that being captured alive would be a hundred times more painful than death itself.

Therefore, she was doing everything she could to infuriate the other party into killing her.

"Jiujui Sect... Prince Zhen Nan... Are you from the Prince Zhen Nan’s Guard Army?"

Lin Fan was looking at Xu Zhi Rou beneath him with a puzzled expression.

This was a lot of information, and he couldn’t fully comprehend it immediately.

"Yes, I am from the guard army. Remember this, you damned traitorous dog. I will be waiting below for you to be sent down by our army!"

Xu Zhi Rou glared bitterly into the darkness.

She tried hard to remember this voice.

If she could turn into a vengeful ghost, she would definitely seek out this man to exact her revenge.

"Wait a minute... You’re with the guard army, and there are people from Jiujui Sect here? Then who the hell fired the rocket at me?"

Lin Fan stared at the fierce Xu Zhi Rou.

This counter-question left her somewhat astonished.

"You’re not from the Jiujui Sect?"

"How could I be one of those beasts with such pure Mandarin?" retorted Lin Fan.

Having said that, he stood up straight.

The vigilant Xu Zhi Rou quickly flipped to her feet.

But still, she looked at him with heavy suspicion.

"Then who are you?"

"I’m just a tourist here for diving. My yacht was hit by a rocket before I could even get to shore. So, are you telling me it was those beasts from the Jiujui Sect who did it?"

Lin Fan switched his flashlight to a wide beam.

Now the other party could see his face clearly.

"A tourist here for diving? This is international waters; your lie is too poor. And how do you know about the Jiujui Sect? Who are you, really?"

Xu Zhi Rou was certainly no naive girl.

She couldn’t easily believe Lin Fan.

"At least I’m not your enemy, and just a few days ago, I had drinks with Prince Zhen Nan."

Lin Fan rubbed his chin, still sorting out the information he had just received.

"Nonsense, there’s no way Prince Zhen Nan would know someone like you!"

This statement made Xu Zhi Rou even more suspicious.

After all, she would know the people her father knew.

"I drank with Prince Zhen Nan at Zhou Weimin’s birthday banquet in Jiangning. Though he surely can hold his liquor—I almost got drunk under the table by him. But, this might be hard for a greenhorn like you to understand."

Whether she believed it or not wasn’t Lin Fan’s concern.

"Jiangning, Zhou Weimin!"

At these words, Xu Zhi Rou was momentarily stunned.

Her father’s trip to Jiangning for the banquet was supposed to be a secret.

Apart from his personal entourage, she was possibly the only one who knew.

Remembering her father’s words about meeting a young man at the banquet,

Could it be that he was the matchmaker she was nearly forced into meeting?

"Hey, greenhorn, tell me, did these people from the Jiuju Sect come to Evil Island to meet up with Beitiao Qian Naizi, the Great Protector of Jiuju?"

Lin Fan spoke up, interrupting Xu Zhi Rou’s thoughts.

And this question made her light up.

"How... how did you know?"

"Some things, a greenhorn like you don’t need to worry about!" Lin Fan said with a slight smile.

Who would have thought he would come across such an unexpected gain here.

"Lin Fan!"

Xu Zhi Rou also revealed a smile, "Don’t you try to play the old soldier with me!"
