On the top two floors of the Cloud Tower, Xu Yun was preparing to sleep when a few light footsteps came from the corridor …
The lighter the footsteps were, the more alert Xu Yun was. He who was preparing to sleep suddenly sat up.
Xu Yun glanced at Xiao Ya who was sleeping soundly on the bed. Although he didn't want to wake her up, if he woke her up now, her exclamation might disturb the people outside.
"Sorry for troubling you." Xu Yun couldn't remind Xiao Ya, so he could only apologize for scaring her.
The footsteps at the door were getting closer and softer. Xu Yun narrowed his eyes and revealed an unfathomable smile. He gently covered Xiao Ya with a blanket.
It wasn't because the weather was cold, nor was it because Xiao Ya wore too little. Xu Yun just wanted to give Xiao Ya something to rely on. If something suddenly happened, Xiao Ya would definitely panic, and the blanket was definitely a natural protective barrier.
When a person was frightened, having a blanket to hug them was definitely a happy thing.
People who liked to watch horror movies at home should have the deepest understanding of this.
During the most frightening time, burying one's head under the blanket would give one the most satisfying sense of security.
Of course, if one burrowed their head under the blanket and found a "ghost baby" under the blanket, then it would be even more exciting … Their hair would probably stand on end.
Just when Xu Yun's attention was focused on the door, a sudden gust of wind came from outside the window!
By the time Xu Yun realized that it was a diversion tactic, it was already too late. The glass was shattered by the four black figures who rushed into the room with a loud bang.
Under the moonlight, the four black figures were wearing the same clothes and masks. Their movements seemed to be the same. They were probably from the same sect.
The glass in the room was double-layered tempered. To be able to use the inertia of diving down from the roof to shatter it required a certain amount of ability. It was definitely not something an ordinary person could do. These guys were all experts, but unfortunately, experts of this level were just clowns in front of Xu Yun.
The wind blew through the broken glass and messed up the curtains. Xiao Ya, who was completely awakened, hugged the blanket and opened her eyes wide to see everything that was happening in front of her.
All of this was completely beyond her imagination. At this moment, Xu Yun was facing four 'extremists' dressed in black. The floor of the room was littered with broken windows, and the moonlight illuminated the floor of the room with a silvery gleam.
What was happening right now? Xiao Ya kept asking herself, but no matter how hard she tried, she could not answer. She had no idea what kind of situation she was in.
At this moment, the door was also opened. Zhuang Yi calmly walked in and slowly closed the door.
Seeing the familiar figure in the casino, a smile appeared on Xu Yun's face. "Third Young Master wants to kill me. Does the big boss know?"
"Regardless of whether Big Boss knows or not, I will do whatever Third Young Master wants me to do." Zhuang Yi said indifferently, "Since you know what we're going to do, are you going to resist or accept your fate?"
Xu Yun laughed. "Accept my fate? I don't think I have that word in my dictionary. "
Zhuang Yi sneered. "Then don't blame me."
In fact, this appearance was completely messed up. Zhuang Yi's original plan was that he would suddenly enter the room at the door and successfully attract Xu Yun's attention. After that, the four killers would break through the window and act.
In this way, when the four of them broke through the window, they would successfully attract Xu Yun's attention. Then, Zhuang Yi could suddenly attack at this time and easily get rid of Xu Yun.
Now, Xu Yun's attention was completely focused on Zhuang Yi, so Zhuang Yi had no chance to launch a surprise attack.
Even masters knew that if they could succeed with a surprise attack, they should never confront head-on, especially when they did not know the opponent's strength.
The safest way to succeed with a surprise attack was to succeed, and it was also a 100% way to not lose. However, the same could not be said for a head-on confrontation.
Zhuang Yi had no clue about Xu Yun's strength, so he did not dare to act rashly. He raised his hand and waved, and the four killers quickly surrounded Xu Yun in a circle.
Judging from the actions of these four people, they were probably killers trained in Japan. They were very obedient and would do whatever they were told.
Moreover, the assassins trained by the Japanese had a particularly foolish trait. No matter how many times stronger the opponent was, they would not hesitate to charge forward even if they knew that they could not win and would be killed the moment they went up.
Even if they knew that it was a dead end, they would still go all out.
This was the characteristic of Japanese killers, and it was also the reason why many people liked to hire Japanese killers.
Unlike some killers from other countries, when they saw that something was wrong, they would quickly retreat. The most important thing was to protect their lives. At worst, they would not take the money and withdraw from the mission. They would not do the stupid things that Japanese killers would do.
There was a saying that there was no need to worry about firewood as long as the green hills were there. If they lost their lives, what was the point of earning money?
Xu Yun could not understand, and he did not want to understand. Since he had encountered them now, he would let them die obediently.
"Go!" At Zhuang Yi's order, the four Japanese killers suddenly took out a sharp blade that was neither long nor short. It was about the length of a forearm.
This kind of sharp blade was very famous in the Japanese killer circle. It was called the "Blade of the Strong". Not every killer was qualified to have this kind of sharp blade.
Those who could have this kind of sharp blade were members of large killer organizations. Only those who had completed more than ten missions were qualified to have this kind of sharp blade.
It could be said that the four assassins surrounding Xu Yun were all elites in the world of assassins in Japan.
Being an assassin was not as simple as one might think. To complete ten missions and not die, not only was one strong enough, one also needed a certain amount of luck. Both were indispensable.
Most killers did not have the chance to complete ten missions.
The killers' missions were all done with their lives. Once they failed, it meant death.
Therefore, 50% of the killers would face death on their first mission, and only 10% of the killers could complete five or six missions and escape unscathed.
Not even 1% of them could complete the mission ten times and still remain standing.
Therefore, the killers who could have the "Blade of the Strong" were not only strong enough, but also lucky enough. Perhaps they were not the best, but they were definitely the luckiest.
Because the best killer might also meet an opponent who could kill him instantly.
And today, the good luck of these four killers was probably over because they met the man named Xu Yun in front of them.
Seeing that the four sharp blades were about to stab Xu Yun into dice at the same time, Xu Yun's figure flashed past the sharp blades like a ghost. Suddenly, he swept his leg and the masked killer in front of him fell down!
Before he could react, Xu Yun had already snatched the "Blade of the Strong" from his hand!
Before the second person's blade slashed at Xu Yun, Xu Yun had already pierced the man's chest with the "Blade of the Strong".
All of this happened in a flash. Xiao Ya, who was hiding behind the blanket on the bed, did not even see what had happened clearly. She only saw a masked killer collapse.
The moonlight in the middle of the night made the blood look black, making people tremble in fear.
Their companion was killed, but the three masked killers from Japan did not feel fear at all. Instead, their fighting spirit was even higher. They roared and were about to surround Xu Yun again.
This was the professionalism of the professional killers in Japan. They did not care about their own lives at all. It was unknown if their brains were fried.
Xu Yun kicked the corpse towards Zhuang Jue. Blood splattered everywhere, creating a terrifying trail. It was a ghastly sight.
Zhuang Yi was more or less shocked by Xu Yun's "cruelty". He did not think that Xu Yun was such a cruel guy before.
