12: The strength of the bull
Thomson, top floor.
A day had passed, and the damaged parts of the house had been mostly repaired.
In her boudoir, Li Shiya had long hair draped over her shoulders, wearing a light pink long dress.
Her flawless small face made her look like a Princess from a fairy tale.
However, this Princess was now sitting on the bed, holding a pillow, her eyes red, and staring blankly.
She still hadn't emerged from the deep grief of her parents' passing.
"Why isn't Older brother back yet?" Li Shiya pouted, looking at the muscular man by the door who stood like an iron tower.
The strong man was silent, and after a few seconds of silence, he said a bit dully, "I don't know."
"Fool, I really don't know why Older brother made you my bodyguard."
Li Shiya was frustrated; throughout the day, her communication with Man Niu, who stood by her side at all times, hadn't exceeded five sentences.
This big guy was completely a silent type.
In response to Li Shiya's complaint, Man Niu lowered his head and fell silent again.
"Ding dong ~"
The doorbell of the house suddenly rang.
"Older brother is back!" Hearing the doorbell, Li Shiya's eyes lit up, and at the same time, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Finally, she didn't have to face this silent type anymore.
"Miss, it's not Young Master outside." Man Niu looked at the monitor outside the door, his expression becoming serious.
Li Shiya quieted down slightly, and through the monitor, she could also see a figure in a Black Robe outside the door.
"Ding dong ~"
The Black Robe figure pressed the doorbell again.
There was still no movement inside.
As if sensing something, Blood Eyes slowly raised his head.
He saw the camera.
And Li Shiya, inside the house, seeing the true face of the person outside the door, screamed in fright.
They were eyes so blood-red that they seemed to be dripping blood.
A face that looked like wrinkled rice paper, as pale as a bloodthirsty Ghost!
"So you saw me, hehehe."
Blood Eyes outside the door let out a series of strange laughs; with his sensitive hearing, he naturally heard Li Shiya's scream.
"Since that's the case, this old man can only be impolite." Extending his withered palm, Blood Eyes struck the metal door in front of him heavily.
"Crash!"
In an instant, the entire door was pierced through by Blood Eyes's palm!
"Crack, crack, crack!" Under a series of strange noises, the door was directly torn open by his hands.
High-rank level, one can already spread spiritual power throughout their body; a door simply couldn't stop Blood Eyes!
Seeing Man Niu and Li Shiya in the house, Blood Eyes grinned, "Two people."
Then, thinking of the photo Lin Fan had given him before, his brow furrowed again, "Where's Li Quan?"
"Who are you? What do you want to do?!" Tearing open the alloy door with his bare hands, this scene was too impactful for Li Shiya, causing her voice to tremble slightly!
"Little girl, it seems your Older brother isn't home." His cold pupils scanned the surroundings, and Blood Eyes was sure there was no fourth person in the house.
"Since that's the case, I can only capture you first and hand you over to the Young Master."
Blood Eyes hadn't forgotten the second target Lin Fan had given him—Li Shiya.
This woman, the Young Master had said, belonged to him.
A strange smile appeared on his face, and Blood Eyes transformed into a black and red shadow, directly closing in on Li Shiya.
As for Man Niu, who was standing beside Li Shiya, he completely ignored him.
An ordinary bodyguard, even with a gun, posed a threat to him that was infinitely close to zero!
Soon, Blood Eyes paid the price for his contempt.
"Boom!!"
Heavy, earthy yellow spiritual power instantly swept across the entire living room.
Man Niu stepped forward, and a fist as heavy as a mountain slammed directly towards Blood Eyes's face!
"This is?!" Looking at the fist that instantly magnified in his eyes, Blood Eyes's pupils contracted sharply.
"Ancient martial arts practitioner!"
This sudden change happened too quickly; spiritual power surged wildly within Blood Eyes's body, and he wanted to avoid Man Niu's punch!
But.
It was already too late!
"Thump!!"
The entire floor shook.
The windows of the houses on the floors below instantly shattered! In the neon night light, they shone brilliantly.
Looking at Blood Eyes again, he was completely embedded in the wall opposite Man Niu and Li Shiya, with him as the center, and spiderweb-like cracks spreading in all directions!
"Pfft!"
Blood mixed with internal organs was spat out from his mouth, and Blood Eyes stared with wide eyes, looking in disbelief at the guy he had ignored from beginning to end.
"Xuan Realm Great Perfection! Limit of Force! How is this possible?!" Every word revealed intense shock, and the intense pain throughout his body made him tremble uncontrollably.
"With me here, you can forget about harming Miss." Man Niu's deep voice held absolute loyalty.
Behind him, Li Shiya was completely stunned and speechless.
She never would have thought that the bodyguard Li Quan had given her would possess such superhuman, non-human strength!
"I never expected a master like you would be willing to be a bodyguard for an ordinary person."
Blood Eyes's voice was still hoarse, but the strange, cackling laughter was gone.
Pieces of rubble fell from the wall; he coughed up blood, gritted his teeth, and pulled his body out of the wall.
"We, Ghost Tooth, will remember this humiliation." Leaving a harsh remark, Blood Eyes took a deep look at Man Niu and finally left with his injuries.
Man Niu did not pursue.
He wasn't fast, and if he moved away from Li Shiya, he couldn't guarantee her safety.
This incident that happened in the house.
Li Quan was unaware.
However, as the System, Ye Tian, through Man Niu, knew everything clearly.
He had no doubts about Man Niu's strength, and the final result was as Ye Tian had expected: Blood Eyes ultimately left in a sorry state.
"I didn't expect Ghost Tooth to already appear in the secular world at this time."
Ye Tian clearly thought more about the events that happened with Man Niu.
In the original novel, Lin Fan only summoned the assassin organization Ghost Tooth when he discovered the space barrier.
Their appearance now, ahead of time, was undoubtedly because of Li Quan.
"So eager to eliminate my Host, I haven't agreed."
Muttering to himself, Ye Tian glanced at the points he possessed.
Through repeatedly leveraging the loopholes in this World, in just one day, he had accumulated 1.2 million points.
This many points should allow him to appear in this World in his true form for quite some time...
...
A corner of the bustling City.
In a dark alley, Blood Eyes endured the pain from the large bruises on his body and slowly sat cross-legged on the ground, healing his injuries.
He was severely injured.
No matter how hard he thought, he couldn't believe that an ordinary person would have such a master protecting them!
High-rank Great Perfection, he was also High-rank Great Perfection.
But the other party was also High-rank Limit of Force!
Limit of Force, Limit of Speed, Limit of Defense.
These refer to an Ancient martial arts practitioner reaching the extreme in a certain Domain at their current level!
That big guy had definitely cultivated a certain power-type Ancient martial arts secret technique to the extreme Realm.
Coupled with the fact that he completely ignored the other party at the time, he suffered a great loss in this unexpected situation.
"It seems that to complete the Young Master's mission, I need to call in two more top assassins from Ghost Tooth."
Blood Eyes thought to himself.
Having witnessed Lin Fan's temper before, he didn't dare to return to report in this state.
