Chapter 561 The Head on My Neck
Wan Zongmie was certain that Leng Yun wouldn't kill him.
It seems that Leng Yun attaches great importance to the information about the blood of the Wood Tai Sui; otherwise, he could have killed him with just one strike.
Leng Yun looked at Wan Zongmie indifferently and said coldly, "I hate it when people threaten me. You could have died a little faster."
Upon hearing this, Wan Zongmie's heart sank, as if he had fallen into a deep ice cave.
As he spoke, Leng Yun extended his right hand, revealing a thin white flame-like pattern on his palm.
Suddenly, the white fire poison shot out and entered Wan Zongmie's body.
"what!"
Wan Zongmie let out a painful scream, his body twisting into a bizarre angle on the ground from the agony.
Leng Yun carefully controlled the power of the fire poison, preventing the white fire poison from directly killing Wan Zongmie.
"Ah, no, I give up!" Wan Zongmie was in unbearable pain and immediately begged for mercy.
With a thought, Leng Yun withdrew the white fire poison.
Wan Zongmie was sweating profusely from the pain, and he no longer resembled a top assassin. He only wanted to die.
But in front of Leng Yun, he was in a state of being unable to live or die.
Before Wan Zongmie could catch his breath, Leng Yun injected the fire poison into his body again.
"what!"
Wan Zongmie screamed again.
Leng Yun, however, remained expressionless as he watched the master assassin being tormented by his own fire poison.
“I’ll tell you—I’ll tell you everything!” Wan Zongmie shouted.
Upon hearing this, Leng Yun withdrew the fire poison once again.
Wan Zongmie let out a long sigh of relief, his head covered in sweat, and dared not make any further attempts.
Only then did he realize that Leng Yun was now a true demon from hell, and that life and death were no longer in his own hands in his presence.
"It is—it is Cheng Dajiang, the current emperor of Anyang Kingdom. He is a person who possesses the blood of the Wood Tai Sui," Wan Zongmie said weakly.
It was precisely for this reason that Wan Zongmie helped Cheng Dajiang kill the former emperor in exchange for a bit of Mu Tai Sui's blood, which would enhance his own power.
Leng Yun nodded. Now that they knew all this, Wan Zongmie no longer needed to live.
With a thought, a golden light flashed, and Wan Zongmie didn't even have time to scream before his chest was pierced, and he died instantly.
Then, Leng Yun took out the mask artifact and put it on her face...
……
Early the next morning, news spread throughout Medicine City that all 23 top assassins had been killed, and Leng Zun and Wan Zongmie had both disappeared.
The news immediately shook the entire underground organization of Angu Kingdom. As if they had encountered a cataclysmic event, all the organizations were busy and no one paid attention to the place where the incident originated, Medicine City.
Old Wang and the others were very worried. They knew that Leng Zun must have killed the 23 assassins.
However, since both Leng Zun and Wan Zongmie have disappeared, it's obvious that they must have met and are now engaged in a fierce battle.
But what the outcome of the battle was, perhaps no one in the entire Medicine City knew.
On the contrary, the Dragon Girl appeared very calm. She didn't know why, but she was completely convinced that Leng Yun would win.
The three major families were also paying close attention to this matter, closely monitoring the situation in Medicine City.
Now, these three family heads have placed all their hopes on Wan Zongmie, hoping that he can kill Leng Yun.
It wasn't until that afternoon that a servant ran back to report: "Lord Wan Zongmie has returned!"
Upon hearing the news, the three family heads were overjoyed and went out of the city to welcome him.
The three families, located in the same area, are arranged in a triangular formation.
The three families were constantly fighting each other, and there were many conflicts over interests.
However, Leng Zun suddenly appeared and killed the three young masters.
This surprisingly led the heads of these three families to unite in a shared hatred of the enemy, pooling the strength of the entire family to offer a huge reward for Leng Yun's assassination.
At this moment, the three family heads were in Watanabe Castle in the middle. Upon hearing the news of Wan Zongmie, they all came out to greet him.
Sure enough, Wan Zongmie rode a gust of foul wind into Watanabe Castle.
"Master Wan, you're back," Watanabe Muti said respectfully.
"Well, Master Wan, did you kill Leng Zun?" Wu Kongjue asked tentatively.
Wan Zongmie glanced at the three of them and said coldly, "Leng Zun is dead. This is his head."
As he spoke, Wan Zongmie shook the box in his hand.
Upon hearing this, the three heads of the family immediately widened their eyes in excitement.
"This—this is real!" Hong Tianxia excitedly tried to take the box.
Wan Zongmie stopped Hong Tianxia and said calmly, "It's not time to open the box yet. We'll hold a banquet tonight in front of everyone, and you can exchange money for goods."
"Of course, of course!" the three family heads said in unison.
Immediately afterwards, the three family heads released the news that Wan Zongmie had killed Leng Zun and that Leng Zun's head would be displayed tonight.
When the news reached Medicine City, everyone was astonished.
"How could this happen?" Lin Dong said, heartbroken.
Old Wang looked incredulous: "Was Lord Leng Zun really killed by Wan Zong?"
“No—I can’t believe it,” Li Linbing said.
The thought that the incredibly powerful Leng Zun had been beheaded by Wan Zongmie and placed in a box was unbelievable to these people.
Only the Dragon Girl remained calm; she had already vaguely guessed the ins and outs of the matter.
"What a greedy fellow," the dragon girl muttered to herself for no apparent reason.
That night, the three major families held a banquet at Watanabe Castle, boasting that they would display Leng Zun's head.
The three major families are first-class forces with strong influence, and within an afternoon, most of the surrounding forces had arrived.
Many members of assassin organizations also arrived at the scene, wanting to see what kind of person Leng Zun, who had killed their organization's elite, was.
There were also some people who did not believe that Leng Zun was dead, so they came to the banquet to confirm it for themselves.
As a result, Watanabe Castle seemed to be flooded with several times more people in one afternoon, and its liveliness even surpassed that of the auction in the medicine city at that time.
That evening, the Watanabe Castle Hall was brightly lit. Due to the limited space of the hall, Watanabe Invincible specially opened the doors and windows around the hall so that more people could see Leng Zun's head.
The courtyard was set up so that, apart from those of high status who could enter the hall, anyone else who wanted to watch could stand in the courtyard and watch through the windows and doors.
The banquet then officially began.
Amidst the eager gazes of the crowd, Wan Zongmie walked onto the stage, holding a box in his hand.
All eyes were on the box.
It is said that this box contains the head of Leng Zun, who was once famous in the Kingdom of Angu.
