111: Chapter 111 Sneak Attack

The wind on the wasteland carried the scent of blood as it blew through the Rocky Forest.

Lin Fan and Tang Si walked one after the other.

The sound of their footsteps was exceptionally clear in the silent night.

The recent counter-kill against the assassins from Sakura Country seemed to have brought them closer.

At least, that's how it appeared on the surface.

Tang Si walked behind, his gaze fixed intently on Lin Fan's back.

His hand was tucked in his pocket, tightly gripping the unused Lightning Rune.

That was his final trump card.

It was also the "gift" he had prepared for Lin Fan.

In Tang Si's mind, a fierce ideological struggle was taking place at that moment.

Kill? Or not kill?

Reason told him that now was not a good opportunity to make a move.

Lin Fan was a wicked fellow with endless tricks, and the fate of those assassins from Sakura Country was still fresh in his memory.

However, he just couldn't swallow the pent-up anger in his heart.

Think about the encounters of the past few days.

First, he was slapped in the face publicly by Lin Fan using a blind box, and then he was forced to spend two hundred million to buy that damn "Grandmaster Stabilization Package."

Just before, he had been forcibly extorted by Lin Fan for the costs of a parachute and a beef hotpot.

Each and every one of these incidents was essentially rubbing the face of the Tang Family in the capital into the dirt.

More importantly.

Lin Fan knew too much.

He had seen him in his disheveled state, being chased by the Ironclad Rhinoceros.

He had seen his powerlessness when facing the assassins from Sakura Country.

If Lin Fan were allowed to walk out of the training camp alive, these dark secrets would surely spread throughout the entire circle in the capital.

How would he, Tang Si, be able to show his face then?

"Hoo..."

Tang Si took a deep breath, and the hesitation in his eyes gradually turned into ruthlessness.

Now was the best opportunity; they were deep in the wasteland, with no one around, and the attack by the assassins from Sakura Country had just occurred.

If Lin Fan died here.

It could be completely blamed on those surviving Japanese remnants; with no witnesses, they would be the perfect scapegoats.

Thinking of this, Tang Si no longer hesitated and decided to strike at Lin Fan.

The lightning power within his body began to circulate quietly.

Although his spiritual power was heavily depleted and he was still injured.

But after all, he had already ascended to Grandmaster.

And Lin Fan was, at most, a Martial Master Second Stage, with strength only at a Half-step Grandmaster level.

Even if Lin Fan had many tricks, in the face of an absolute disparity in power, he would only have a dead end.

A sneak attack.

As long as it was a one-hit kill, not giving Lin Fan the chance to use those messy props.

The odds of winning were high.

"Lin Fan."

Tang Si suddenly called out.

Lin Fan in front stopped and did not turn around.

"What's wrong, Young Master Tang? Do you feel the money you gave just now was too little, and you want to add a bit more?"

Lin Fan's voice was still as annoying as ever.

Carrying a sense of mercenary tone that made people grit their teeth in hatred.

"Yeah."

Tang Si's voice became incomparably cold.

"I want to add a bit more... hell money for you!"

Before his voice even faded, Tang Si moved.

The rocks under his feet instantly crumbled.

His whole body transformed into a bolt of purple lightning, instantly crossing the distance of ten meters.

The Lightning Rune in his hand exploded with a bang.

The terrifying lightning plasma converged into a giant lightning ghost claw, lunging straight for Lin Fan's heart from behind.

In this strike, Tang Si held nothing back.

Even a Grandmaster of the same level, if caught off guard by this blow, would meet their end on the spot.

"Go to hell!" A manic sense of pleasure flashed in Tang Si's eyes.

He seemed to have already seen the scene of Lin Fan's heart being gouged out and blood splashing everywhere.

However, at the very moment the lightning ghost claw was about to touch Lin Fan's clothes.

Lin Fan suddenly performed an extremely strange action.

He did not dodge, nor did he turn to defend.

Instead... he stuck out his butt.

Pfft!

An extremely loud, extremely long fart sounded in the silent Rocky Forest.

Immediately after.

A yellow mist erupted from behind Lin Fan at an astonishing speed.

It met Tang Si, who was rushing over, head-on.

[Skunk's Despair Fart Mist (B-Rank)]

[Effect: Instantly releases a high concentration of biochemical gas, possessing strong paralyzing and blinding effects, and the smell can adhere to the skin for three days without dissipating.]

[Note: This is the final gift left by a mutated skunk suffering from severe gastroenteritis; please use with caution.]

Tang Si couldn't react in time at all.

He was shouting with his mouth wide open, preparing to enjoy the pleasure of the kill.

As a result, the yellow mist poured directly into his nostrils and mouth.

"Ugh!"

Tang Si's movements instantly stiffened.

That smell was indescribable.

It was as if a thousand pairs of smelly socks worn for ten years and canned rotten herring had been heated in a microwave for three days and three nights.

This was a stench that struck straight at the soul.

Tang Si only felt his stomach churning violently, and tears and snot flowed down uncontrollably.

The originally gathered lightning power instantly dissipated due to this sudden physiological discomfort.

That lightning ghost claw extinguished with a 'pfft' just a few centimeters from Lin Fan's back.

"Cough, cough, cough! Ugh!"

Tang Si knelt on the ground, retching madly; he felt as if his lungs were about to be coughed out.

This kind of biochemical attack was more lethal than any physical attack.

Only then did Lin Fan turn around slowly and leisurely.

He was wearing a gas mask and holding a small fan in his hand, fanning the air with disgust.

"Young Master Tang, what are you doing?"

"So polite, it's not even New Year's yet, why are you paying such a big tribute?"

Lin Fan's voice came out through the gas mask, sounding a bit muffled.

But the mockery within it was not diminished in the slightest.

Tang Si raised his head, his face flushed red, glaring at Lin Fan with teary eyes.

"You... ugh... despicable!"

He never expected.

Lin Fan would actually use such a low-class tactic, and looking at Lin Fan's reaction, it was clearly prepared in advance!

"Despicable?" Lin Fan shrugged.

"Young Master Tang, this is called 'all is fair in war'."

"Besides, you were the one who wanted to kill me first."

"This is just self-defense."

While speaking, Lin Fan took out a mace from the system space.

This mace was still stained with the flesh and blood of the previous Ironclad Rhinoceros, looking incredibly ferocious.

"Originally, I wanted to do long-term business with you."

"After all, it's not easy to find a big sucker like you who is foolish and rich."

Lin Fan sighed, his tone filled with regret.

"But you chose to narrow your own path."

"Since you want me dead, I can only reluctantly send you on your way."

After speaking, Lin Fan carried the mace and walked towards Tang Si step by step.

His eyes were very calm, without any killing intent.

Only a cold indifference, like looking at pigs and sheep waiting to be slaughtered.

This kind of gaze made Tang Si feel a wave of panic.

He endured the nausea and stood up unsteadily.

"Lin Fan, don't be too arrogant!"

"I am a Grandmaster, I am the Young Master of the Tang Family!"

"Even if I fell for your sneak attack, killing a mere Martial Master like you is as easy as turning over my hand!"

Tang Si roared and forcibly mobilized the spiritual power in his body.

Purple lightning lit up on his body again.

Although it was much dimmer than before, the pressure of a Grandmaster was still terrifying.

"Is that so?"

Lin Fan stopped and tilted his head.

"Grandmaster?"

Lin Fan suddenly laughed.

He took off the gas mask on his face and tossed it aside.

The next second.

A force of qi and blood, incomparably tyrannical, erupted from his body.

Boom!

The surrounding air emitted explosive sounds due to the vibration of this qi and blood.

Martial Master Eighth Stage!

And it was a Martial Master Eighth Stage that had been enhanced by the system and had a flawless foundation!

The muscles on Lin Fan's body bulged slightly, and a faint golden light appeared on the surface of his skin.

That was the sign of his S-Rank Talent [Indestructible Golden Body] operating at full power.

"Sorry, I'm showing my cards."

"Actually, I'm just a tiny bit away from being a Grandmaster."

"To beat a fake like you, it's enough."

Lin Fan stomped his foot, and the ground instantly shattered.

His figure rushed out like a cannonball.

The mace in his hand, accompanied by a whistling wind, smashed fiercely towards Tang Si's head.

At this moment, the identities of the hunter and the prey were completely reversed.
