Chapter 28: Chapter 28 A Deadly Appointment

"Meng Yao, I’m going to Flower Umbrella Street to buy some hair ornaments. You go ahead to Bar Street and get us a good spot by the street. I’ll contact you later," Lin Fan said.

The bustling intersection of Four-direction Street.

Yang Linglong quickly made up an excuse upon receiving the message from Lin Fan.

The message said he was already waiting for her there.

"Okay, I’ll see you on Bar Street then," she agreed.

Ning Mengyao didn’t suspect a thing and nodded in agreement.

It had been quite a while since she’d taken a stroll there anyway.

It was a good chance to relax.

And so, the two of them split up and walked off in opposite directions.

The eight people trailing behind them also divided into two groups, each following a different target.

"Greedy bastards, trying to capture both of us!"

Little did they know, Lin Fan, who was following them, had already locked the enemies in his sights.

He glanced at the lively scene on Four-direction Street and hurried after Ning Mengyao on the right.

On the crowded street, any man couldn’t help but take a second look at a beautiful woman.

After all, Ning Mengyao, with her tall figure, was stunningly beautiful.

Beneath the swan-like neck, her delicate collarbones resembled the shape of a wine glass, intoxicating to behold.

In her casual white maxi dress, her enchanting figure was outlined.

The exposed calves were incredibly slender.

The white sandals, stepping on the cobblestone pavement, moved forward.

She truly resembled a celestial nymph who had descended to the mortal world.

"Make your move!"

As Ning Mengyao walked, stopping now and then, the four men gradually approached her.

She was now walking into an alley, the perfect place for dark deeds on a moonless night.

All they had to do was cover her mouth from behind, and it would all be over.

The leader gestured to the others and took out a cloth, ready to act.

"Stop being so handsy all the time,"

But the sudden voice from behind startled him.

He turned around in a panic, only to find his companions already lying on the ground.

Eyes rolled back, they had stopped breathing.

Standing behind him, with a cold smile, was none other than Lin Fan.

He had silently snapped the necks of three men.

Now, it was the leader’s turn.

"Who are you? Dare to mess with Laozi’s plans!"

He instinctively reached for the dagger at his lower back.

The man gazed at Lin Fan with terrified eyes, fixated on him.

"Shrimp soldiers and crab generals aren’t qualified to ask questions," Lin Fan scoffed, as if he couldn’t even see the blade in the man’s hand.

That proud demeanor, like a lion.

In his contemptuous gaze, there was also deep disdain.

"Watch how Laozi deals with you!"

The man clenched his teeth fiercely, his terror turning into rage.

At that moment, his fearlessness in the face of death gave him the courage to charge at the lion before him.

The dagger’s cold light flickered as he aimed an upward stab at Lin Fan’s ribs.

This kid was aiming with precision and viciousness—clearly, he was no kind soul.

"A child’s toy, capable of hurting someone?"

Lin Fan stood unflinchingly, simply extending two fingers to clamp down on the blade.

Instantly, that fiercely courageous stab came to a complete halt.

"How is this possible..."

His full-force blow had been effortlessly neutralized by just two fingers.

This kind of terror was absolutely beyond his comprehension.

"Enough playing around, time to go on your way," Lin Fan said, a glint of cold light flashing from the corner of his eye.

If it weren’t for the fact that they were one step short just now, he wouldn’t have bothered with idle chatter.

His right hand shot out, directly seizing the man’s throat.

Before he could even beg for mercy, he was already dead.

From beginning to end, it was just a blink of an eye, and four lives were extinguished on the spot.

"Lin Fan, what are you doing here?" Ning Mengyao turned around, curious at the noise behind her.

She saw Lin Fan pushing a guy to the ground.

"I saw you were alone, so I came to keep you company," Lin Fan said as he stepped forward to face Ning Mengyao.

Before she could look back at the bodies, he had already wrapped an arm around her slender waist.

"Don’t do this... Linglong will get upset if she sees us..."

Ning Mengyao shyly hastened to retreat.

"What’s the trouble with that, a husband carrying his wife is only natural," he said.

Lin Fan gave a mischievous smile and winked.

"We had an agreement, if you keep this up, I’ll get angry," she warned.

Ning Mengyao pouted her little mouth,

her face flushed with embarrassment.

"Okay, okay, I was just joking. If you don’t like it, I’ll leave now," he said soothingly.

With this situation handled, of course, he still had to rescue Yang Linglong.

"It’s not that I don’t like it... I just don’t want others to see so soon... If you want to follow, then follow, but don’t make it obvious," she relented.

The workings of a woman’s heart, perhaps not even she herself understood.

Regarding Lin Fan’s entanglement, Ning Mengyao did not find it entirely unpleasant.

"All right, then I’ll just watch you from a distance," he suggested.

Watching Ning Mengyao’s wine-red cheeks, Lin Fan said with a smile.

"Did you know those guys just now?"

Just before leaving the alley, Ning Mengyao turned back,

looking puzzled at the four men lying in the darkness.

"Of course not, they must be drunks. That’s why you shouldn’t drink, it’s bad for your health," he said casually.

Lin Fan glanced at the lifeless bodies in the darkness and chuckled lightly.

After bidding Ning Mengyao farewell, he hurried towards Flower Umbrella Street.

Moving through the crowd, Lin Fan quickly reached the street corner.

But from afar, he could hear a noisy commotion.

Turning the corner, he saw Yang Linglong fighting with four men.

Her yoga pants outlined her long, shapely legs, which whipped out with fierce agility and freedom.

Each kick brought with it a gust of strong wind.

She clearly had a foundation in martial arts.

For a moment, the four burly men couldn’t get near her.

"Are you blind dogs, daring to provoke me? Are you tired of living?" she spat, kicking a man in the chest, her fists clenched and ready.

"You stinking woman, not drinking a toast means you must drink a penalty!" the four men said, their eyes flashing with malice.

They each pulled out daggers hidden behind their backs, thinking of a sneak attack.

But, realizing they’d been discovered, they had no choice but to resort to force.

"Come on, today I’ll teach you a lesson!" Yang Linglong slowly backed away, fists still clenched.

Facing four knife-wielding thugs made her somewhat wary.

"Don’t hurt her, we need her alive!" the four men exchanged a look, and one of them made the first move.

His dagger feinted, forcing Yang Linglong to dodge to the left.

But at that moment, a man from the right suddenly charged.

In the instant his knife-hand lunged forward, his left hand swept out.

A puff of white smoke enveloped Yang Linglong.

"Ah... despicable!"

Her attention was all on the knife-wielder; she didn’t expect the underhanded move.

Yang Linglong felt a burning in her eyes, and in an instant, she lost her fighting ability.

"You stinking woman, let’s see how fierce you can be now!"

The four men, huffing with arrogance, approached their now powerless target.

Blinded, Yang Linglong was easy prey.

"I’m here!"

Just when she was in dire straits, uncertain of what to do,

Lin Fan’s voice suddenly came from behind her.

"Be careful, these guys have knives."

Hearing Lin Fan’s voice, Yang Linglong’s anxious heart found some relief.

She closed her eyes tightly, stepped back slightly, and leaned directly against Lin Fan’s chest.

"Kid, don’t stick your nose in our business. This is Green Dragon Sect’s matter, scram!"

the knife-wielding men said, rolling up their sleeves and advancing.

They didn’t take Lin Fan seriously at all.

"Green Worm Sect counts for nothing," Lin Fan said, his eyes glinting coldly.

If it weren’t for the spectators in the distance, those four men would have been corpses already.

Since a quick kill wasn’t an option, he might as well have some fun.

With this thought, Lin Fan suddenly wrapped his arms around Yang Linglong’s waist.

"Come on, let your boyfriend lead you into battle!"
