264: Chapter 264 Unexpected

Facing Saionji Sawa's sudden attack, Demon Dog—perhaps influenced by Qiu Shou...

...had already developed an instinctive premonition.

After dodging the woman's determined strike, he merely smiled slightly. "So fair."

Saionji Sawa was also surprised her kick had missed. She quickly pulled a handgun from under her pillow and raised it to fire.

But Death Knell reacted faster. He had long considered that his teammate might be unreliable again!

Why are you hesitating over there! He might as well do it himself!

Seeing the emergency, Death Knell also raised his silver handgun, intending to kill the woman.

Assassins like them wouldn't give their opponent any breathing room.

Saionji Sawa was clearly prepared.

The bed she was sleeping on actually split right down the middle! Wrapped in her quilt and sheets, Saionji Sawa fell right through, vanishing before the two assassins' eyes.

Death Knell fired! But while bullets could shatter the bed frame, they couldn't penetrate the solid floor.

It turned out this section of the floor was laid with thick mechanical steel plates. Death Knell was so angry he stomped his feet! He had been played by a woman!

Saionji Sawa slowly moved her body through a metal tunnel. She had to reach the exit before they could crack the mechanism.

Death Knell snapped out of it and immediately shouted to Demon Dog, "Quick, use your ability to track her!"

Demon Dog replied, "I'm already sensing it, wait a moment."

Before long, Demon Dog's canine nose caught Saionji Sawa's unique fragrance in the air.

He shouted, "She went that way! Quick, circle around."

Death Knell and Demon Dog immediately took off. Just as they rushed out of the room, they encountered guards coming to protect the Eldest Miss.

Yezaki Insui drew an ink-colored katana; this blade didn't reflect light or the moon!

Yezaki Insui swung his blade. Even Death Knell was startled. In this dark night, if not for instinctive reaction, one really wouldn't be able to see this ghostly Eastern blade.

Once Yezaki Insui was discovered, he lost his only advantage.

However, he was clever. Assessing the situation, he directly retreated behind a group of his subordinates. He shouted, "These two want to harm the Eldest Miss, seize them!"

Members of the Dark Fang Society's Division Two all rushed forward.

Death Knell raised his gun with his right hand and instantly killed one; the man's brains splattered across the floor.

But this didn't stop the fearless Japanese warriors. After all, these fanatics weren't even afraid of suicide, so why would they fear giving their lives for their leader?

Death Knell swung his left fist and knocked another down. His strength was enough to crush everyone here.

But this wasn't his goal. The mission tonight was to kill Saionji Sawa. How could he be dragged down here and stalled?

Thus, as the leader of the two-man team, Death Knell could only give orders to Demon Dog, who was better at pursuit.

"You go after that woman, I'll hold them off!"

Demon Dog didn't hesitate and rushed straight out!

Saionji Sawa finally crawled to the exit and climbed out of a pipe. This was next to her suite, a SPA room where she usually relaxed.

Saionji Sawa quickly changed into a female combat outfit. Then, she pulled a long sword emitting a cold light from a cabinet.

This was the weapon her master had personally forged for her, the Frost Mist Enchantress.

Saionji Sawa bit her lip. "Bakayaro! You actually dare to come and kill me?"

Demon Dog quickly locked onto Saionji Sawa's position. He used brute force to break through the door.

Seeing Saionji Sawa in her perfectly-bodied combat version, he didn't hide his predatory gaze.

He hadn't expected that while he didn't get to taste Qiu Shou, an even higher-quality one would appear now.

The Japanese Eldest Miss's flavor was indeed exquisite!

Saionji Sawa was full of rage. She was no mere figurehead; otherwise, how could she suppress the two main combat forces of the Dark Fang Society?

She gripped the Frost Mist Enchantress tightly, her movements agile and swift! Under the lights, it transformed into streaks of deadly cold light.

Demon Dog marveled; this woman was actually slightly stronger than that Chinese woman.

This time he didn't dare to be careless and also took out his weapon, putting it on his hand.

Bone-Eating Claw! It matched his nickname, Demon Dog, perfectly.

In an instant, blade qi crisscrossed the room, producing ear-piercing metallic clashing sounds.

After a few exchanges, Saionji Sawa actually found herself falling into a slight disadvantage!

Only then did she realize—wasn't the assassin before her the very one she had sheltered a few days ago?

How could they be so powerful? And why would they come to kill her?

She shouted, "You ungrateful wolves! Who sent you?"

Demon Dog attacked with a claw, nearly tearing Sawa's clothes.

"Hehe, it's all your fault for allowing the Chinese to come and catch us. You brought this on yourself, don't blame us!"

"Baka! I'll kill you!"

But a fight between two people isn't decided by who shouts louder.

Saionji Sawa was indeed strong enough, but the opponent was in the top 20 of the Black List! Even Su Nange couldn't win easily.

Let alone her, a woman.

Fortunately, Himura Ryusai finally arrived at the battlefield with members of Division One.

Seeing Demon Dog bullying his Eldest Miss, he shouted even louder and charged with his blade!

Demon Dog was suddenly surrounded by a group of Japanese warriors.

Himura Ryusai shouted, "Eldest Miss Sawa, leave quickly! Leave this to us!"

Saionji Sawa grit her teeth, thinking to herself that she really hadn't misjudged this fellow.

It was worth all the connections she had used to bail him out!

"Himura, be careful yourself!"

"Eldest Miss, go quickly!"

Thus, Saionji Sawa also decisively ran outside!

Himura led a group of warriors in a fierce battle with Demon Dog.

Demon Dog's claws were sharp, swinging like a meat grinder.

These low-level warriors posed no threat to him at all.

Only Himura Ryusai could barely stall this terrifying assassin.

What was even more despairing was that on the other side, Death Knell looked at the Japanese people all over the ground, feeling very foul-tempered.

No one had ever escaped from his hands!

He came to Demon Dog's room and asked loudly of the fighting Demon Dog, "Where's the target?"

Demon Dog said helplessly, "I was just about to kill her when these guys rushed in. The woman just ran, go chase her!"

Death Knell thought for a few seconds. In terms of frontal ability, he didn't fear anyone on the Black List. But for a long-distance pursuit, he still acknowledged his teammate more.

Death Knell thus decided: "I'll help you finish these people! You go chase her!"

Death Knell had just finished one battle and immediately plunged into a new one.

Himura Ryusai cursed inwardly, "Damn it! Why didn't that fellow Yezaki Insui stall for even this much time for the Eldest Miss? What on earth is he doing?"

But just as Himura Ryusai was wondering, he suddenly felt a chill on his back!

An ink-colored long blade that was simply impossible to track struck his shoulder directly!

Instantly, his flesh was torn open, and even the white bone was clearly visible!

Not only Himura Ryusai, but even Death Knell and Demon Dog were stunned. Holy crap, they're having internal strife?

Himura Ryusai turned his head in horror, his eyes filled with disbelief. "You guy! What are you doing? So it was you who betrayed the Eldest Miss?!!"

Yezaki Insui ignored him and only said to Death Knell and Demon Dog, "Let me handle this place. You two go chase Miss Sawa!"

Death Knell immediately pulled Demon Dog, who looked like he wanted to watch the show. "Quick, let's chase!"

Himura Ryusai ignored the sharp pain in his shoulder: "You damned fellow! I'm going to kill you!"

Yezaki Insui smiled sinisterly. "One of your arms is already useless, stop boasting."

"Brothers of Division Two, please let us send Lord Himura on his way!"

It turned out that the ones who had fought Death Knell with Yezaki Insui earlier were all members loyal to the Dark Fang Society.

They had already been completely cleared out by Death Knell's hand.

The people remaining now were all Yezaki Insui's confidants and the top combat power of Division Two.

As long as he wiped out Himura Ryusai and the members of Division One, tonight he, Yezaki Insui, could pull the wool over everyone's eyes!

However, there was still a prerequisite: Death Knell and Demon Dog had to successfully kill Saionji Sawa.

That was why Yezaki Insui was so anxious and had to expose himself first to let Death Knell and Demon Dog leave.

He was also very frustrated! He had followed the Eldest Miss for so many years and actually didn't know there was a mechanism under her bed!

Yezaki Insui thought to himself: Eldest Miss Sawa, you must be killed by them! Only then can I gain my freedom and experience the wonderful life in Shanghai!
