The Urban Medical Martial Immortal

42: Chapter 42 Zhi Ge 42: Chapter 42 Zhi Ge “Situation!”

Two dark figures approached within a hundred meters of the villa, and the experts lurking around the villa for Xu Tangge’s protection finally sensed something, as someone cried out in alarm.

From different directions of the villa, five figures emerged; four of them were tens of meters away from the villa, and upon hearing the alarm, they immediately converged on one person who appeared in the garden.

Clearly, the person in the garden was the leader of those protecting Xu Tangge’s safety.

Judging by their speed and manner, they seemed to be ex-special forces with formidable skills.

However, those two dark figures were more than twice as fast as these men.

“Be careful!

Top-notch first-class assassins!

Their cultivation just barely reached the Yellow Rank Early Stage, but their actual combat power is comparable to the Yellow Rank Middle Stage!”

The leader finally discerned the rapidly approaching figures and his face changed drastically as he alerted the others.

But those two were too fast.

Before the others could even gather together, two of Xu Tangge’s elite bodyguards had been approached by the two figures.

Pfft~~

In the dim light, a flash of blood, and two bodyguards fell to the ground lifeless.

“Abao, Ahu!”

The fierce and ferocious leader of the bodyguards shouted loudly, “These two are experts; the three of us must join forces to ensure Miss Xu’s safety!”

As he spoke, the three men drew military triangular daggers with a backhand and, instead of retreating, they advanced to attack the two dark figures.

Clink, clink~~

Pfft~~

Sounds of metal clashing and sparks flying ensued.

Then, in the blink of an eye, two streaks of cold light flew through the air and buried themselves in the throats of two bodyguards.

Hidden Weapon!

The bodyguard leader saw the objects in their throats and his face showed shock and horror; he took in a breath of cold air, “You are from the assassin organization Zhi Ge!”

The throats of the dead held two cross-shaped darts, menacing and sharp.

This hidden weapon was something the bodyguard leader had never seen before.

But he had heard rumors that the only faction in the world that used cross-shaped hidden weapons was Zhi Ge!

Zhi Ge was a world-class assassin organization with strength enough to rank in the top twenty globally.

Unexpectedly, this time the enemy had spent a great deal of money to hire Zhi Ge killers!

Feeling powerless, the leader glanced in the direction of the villa, bit his teeth, and prepared to rush towards the villa; he had to inform Miss Xu to flee immediately.

But before he could move, the two Zhi Ge assassins were already lunging at him.

Pfft~

The bodyguard leader had one arm disabled with a slash and then was kicked flying by the opponent.

“Those facing death, knowing we are from Zhi Ge, why bother struggling!”

Both figures were masked, the one who spoke was tall and evidently a male, with a firm voice and icy words.

He, like a judge, held life and death in his hands.

The disparity in strength between the two sides was simply too great.

Just as the masked figure was about to move, a scoffing voice came from one side, “Excuse me, could you hold off on acting?

How about we discuss a matter first?”

The expressions of the two Zhi Ge assassins changed drastically as they looked towards the source of the voice, only to see an ordinary-looking seventeen or eighteen-year-old youth walking out from a corner of the garden.

Seeing the youth who had appeared, the bodyguard leader was also stunned.

The youth that appeared was none other than Lin Tian.

This bodyguard leader had been quite dedicated to protecting Xu Tangge and had not fled the battle, so Lin Tian chose to show himself.

“It’s this young man, the overt bodyguard recently hired by Housekeeper Yu for Miss Xu!”

The bodyguard leader instantly became frantic and shouted, “Hurry and take Miss Xu away!

As long as you alarm the guards around, they won’t dare to act recklessly!”

“Hehe, there’s no need, just two small assassins,” Lin Tian said with a calm expression and a relaxed laugh as he walked over.

“You…”

The bodyguard leader looked at the naive young man, furious beyond words.

The two Zhi Ge Killers’ eyes bore a serious expression, for they had not noticed the boy’s presence until now.

Though they studied Lin Tian for a long while and examined their surroundings, finding no one else, they eventually relaxed a little.

“Senior brother, I’ll take care of him!” one of the Zhi Ge Killers said coldly.

The voice was pleasant but carried an air of indifference.

It was a female assassin!

A smile crept onto Lin Tian’s lips, and he was inwardly astonished.

Meanwhile, the female assassin’s gaze was icy as she delivered a whip kick directly at Lin Tian, the move creating a sonic boom as it sliced through the air.

“Your strength is too weak!” Lin Tian easily neutralized her attack and looked at the female assassin with a smile that was not quite a smile, saying, “For a girl to engage in such violence is not good!

Besides, can we talk things over?

Just tell me who hired you, and I’ll let you go!”

“How dare you spout such arrogance!”

Irritated by Lin Tian’s taunting, she swiftly drew a dagger with her backhand, aiming straight at Lin Tian’s throat.

Yet, to the shock of both the female assassin and her colleague, the incoming dagger was effortlessly clamped between Lin Tian’s two fingers, unable to advance even an inch.

With a flick of his fingers, Lin Tian disarmed the dagger.

“What!”

Seeing her weapon seized, the female assassin was taken aback with shock and anger.

The injured bodyguard leader also watched the scene with his eyes bulging in disbelief.

He had personally experienced the fearsome strength of the two Zhi Ge Killers, yet now the youth before him was neutralizing their blows with ease.

Lin Tian, having taken the weapon, did not continue the fight but instead smiled and said, “First tell me who you are working for!”

“Hmph!”

The female assassin’s gaze was glacial as a black firearm suddenly appeared in her hand.

Lin Tian’s eyes turned cold, and he struck like lightning, snatching the firearm from her as well.

“Who are you!”

The female assassin gained a clearer understanding of Lin Tian’s skill, which was powerful, too powerful!

“I hate these things the most!”

After tossing the firearm aside, he then unceremoniously sent the female assassin flying with a strike and said coldly, “Now, tell me, who hired you?”

But before Lin Tian could finish speaking, the male assassin also drew a weapon from his person.

However, Lin Tian was not about to let him act, his hand wielding the stolen dagger with True Qi, transforming it into lightning that impaled the palm of the male assassin.

The male assassin cried out in pain, dropping his weapon.

“Senior brother!”

The female assassin exclaimed, quickly retreating to the male assassin’s side.

“Let’s go!”

The male assassin shouted.

Then a smoke bomb exploded on the spot, filling the area with a dense fog.

By the time Lin Tian arrived, there was no one to be found.

“What a pity, if only I had developed Divine Sense, they couldn’t have escaped from the palm of my hand!”

Lin Tian shook his head ruefully and turned to the bodyguard leader, saying, “Are you alright?”

“It’s just a minor injury, nothing serious.”

Indeed, he was a tough soldier through and through, propping himself up by his arm without a change in expression.

He shook his head with a wry smile and said, “I never expected such formidable skill from you, young man.

With you here, Miss Xu’s safety shouldn’t be a concern anymore!

I think it’s time for me to leave; my four brothers still need a proper burial.”

Although he did not know why they were so committed to the Xu Family, Lin Tian still held considerable respect for the loyal man before him and spoke up, “My name is Lin Tian!”

“I’m Chen Hu!

Brother Lin, I’ll take care of the rest here.

Please look after Miss Xu from now on!”

Chen Hu said with a polite nod.

Lin Tian glanced at the bodies of the four bodyguards on the ground, said nothing further, and turned to head back to the villa.

How Chen Hu would handle the situation from here wasn’t his concern.

At that moment, Lin Tian was more preoccupied with thoughts of the two assassins.

Their failure this time assuredly meant they would strike again, necessitating great caution on his part.

That monthly salary of one hundred thousand was not easy money; he was sure to face endless trouble ahead!
