The Peerless Beauty Stuck With Me

Chapter 1678 - 1677: Sun God

Since they've managed to kill Yan Shu, a late-stage god, even if luck played a part, they certainly have some skill. By doing this, you're clearly showing disdain for Tang Rao, belittling Tang Rao's abilities.Therefore, it's not too excessive for Tang Rao to take care of these worthless lackeys of yours.

"On the rooftop?"

Bei Lin's hands were sweating from the tension.

It wasn't that she was worried about being unable to defeat the people on the rooftop; she just instinctively feared the unknown.

"Do they know we've discovered them?"

At this moment, the footsteps on the rooftop no longer attempted to conceal their presence. Although Bei Lin couldn't match their abilities, she could hear the footsteps quite clearly.

"You're really here? It's like looking everywhere with no results, then suddenly finding it effortlessly. Without the Shu Family's protection, I wonder where you could possibly escape to. Brothers, go get him; kill this kid, and we'll go back for our reward!"

"The Yan Family looks down on me, and I'm very unhappy. Just a few of you want to kill me? Are you joking?"

Tang Rao took out a fresh vine from his portable palace, aimed it at the person speaking, and with one swipe, the speaker's body was cut in half, releasing a bloody scent throughout the room. One lackey, who wasn't terribly strong mentally, fainted to the ground after witnessing a living person being split into two.

"There are two of you who are relatively clear-headed left, so, are you planning to confess honestly who sent you, how many people came this time, and what do you intend to do to me; or would you rather I be straightforward and send you all away?"

Tang Rao knew all along that these were Yan Family men, but he wanted to know who from the Yan Family was handling these trivial matters. Did the Second Son of Yan Family know these men came to assassinate Tang Rao?

"We won't say. Even if you kill us, you won't find out."

Alright, quite gutsy!

If this guy were in the Kao Shan Sect, Tang Rao would definitely have awarded him without hesitation.

Unfortunately, he was born into the Yan Family, enemies of Tang Rao from the start. Even if Tang Rao wanted to reward this tight-lipped man, it wasn't really possible.

Moreover, when dealing with tight-lipped, hard-boned individuals, he's never been polite.

Being too polite to enemies only sets traps for himself, and when the time comes to jump into the pit he dug himself, he feels a bit guilty towards his own principles.

"Well then, go die."

This time, Tang Rao whipped the tight-lipped man's neck right in front of the other conscious person.

A spurt of warm blood gushed out from the man's neck, splattering onto the face of the man nearby, scaring him enough that his legs grew weak.

A head rolled onto the ground, spun a couple of times, and came to a halt. The eyes on the head didn't even manage to close, remaining wide open with a hint of fear that was now eternally frozen there.

"You've seen it. Your friend was loyal, hence, he's dead. Do you want to be like him for keeping the secret, or would you rather tell me the truth and live? Make your choice."

The man knelt directly in the pool of blood by his partner's corpse.

He wasn't cowardly; he simply couldn't digest having witnessed Tang Rao brutally kill two people.

He was scared, scared to the point where staying upright was a challenge.

"I'll talk; I'll tell you everything."

Tang Rao thought the Yan Family was tightly-lipped, but now it seems that every family has a few who are cowardly.

"It was Old Master Yan who sent us out, the first three groups didn't return, and he's very angry. Tomorrow is the old man's birthday, and the master is worried about the old man finding out about Yan Shu's death, and wants to resolve this beforehand. Plus, he said today is the last half-day; if this last group fails to assassinate you, we'll all die. I had no choice but to come. Please, I beg you, spare my life and let me go."

The man spoke with full sincerity; it was the deep desire to survive rather than sincerity towards Tang Rao.

"Alright, I believe you, and I keep my word. You can go."

The door is there, he can leave whenever he wants, Tang Rao wouldn't hold him back.

As for whether the people outside heard his confession and allow him to leave, that's a separate matter.

The group's leader outside kicked open Tang Rao's room door and strode in angrily.

Ignoring the two bodies on the floor and the unconscious person, he walked straight up to the sincere man and kicked his chest, furiously saying: "Traitor, how could the Yan Family raise someone like you?"

The man fell to the ground, spitting blood, blood gushing relentlessly without stopping.

He never imagined he would die at the hands of his own people.

Indeed, the one who killed him was the leader of the fourth group, the head of this operation.

Their goal was clear: kill Tang Rao. But before finding Tang Rao, this guy went and told him everything they should and shouldn't say, leaving Tang Rao fully informed and prepared. If today's mission fails, the Yan Family would find themselves in trouble.

Fortunately, he wisely sent two men back to inform their master.

If the master learns that Tang Rao is at the Shu Family tomorrow, on the old man's birthday, they'll be more vigilant towards the Shu Family.

"You even kill your own companions; the Yan Family's guys are truly a disgrace, aren't they?"

The blood on Tang Rao's hands had dried, but it remained on the vine, dripping onto the floor.

Looking at the leader of the fourth group, Tang Rao regarded him like a dead man.

"He wasn't our companion; he was a traitor. He deserved to die, and so do you!"

In the fourth group, he was the strongest. Facing so many people, not stepping up to challenge Tang Rao would fail to garner respect.

After speaking, the man produced a disk-like object, surrounded by spikes. If these spikes pierced skin and were yanked out, the skin would surely be bloodied.

"Wow, this toy looks like the Sun God. It's scaring me quite much. Come on, let me show you how one person beats many."

Tang Rao found the Sun God toy quite impressive, despite its poor craftsmanship. But the creativity was limitless. Once he dealt with this guy, he planned to take the Sun God toy back to Master Artifact Caster, his mentor Wu Suowei, to craft a better version.

"Kid, you're quite arrogant to think one can beat us all?"
