"What's going on, why can't my hands... my body move!"
The scarred face cried out in extreme surprise.
"Alas, you know nothing about the cultivation of the Half-step Divine Realm!"
"If I want to kill you, I only need a single glance to do so!"
"Do you think you have a chance to kill someone in front of me?"
Lu Yang sneered, and with a palm strike from a distance, he sent the scarred face flying, crashing heavily onto the ground. Lu Wushuang was then freed.
The scarred face's entire cheek was caved in by Lu Yang's palm.
"Escape!"
At this moment, the scarred face had only one thought in his mind. He had managed to escape from a martial arts family's Grandmaster back then, so he naturally still had his own escape techniques. The scarred face took out a small bottle filled with black powder.
He directly sprinkled the powder towards Lu Yang, and the black powder transformed into black insects that flew towards Lu Yang.
"Gu worms?"
Seeing these things, Lu Yang let out a cold laugh, recognizing them as Gu worms that had been refined by someone, and they were extremely venomous. As long as they touched the skin, these Gu worms would burrow into a person's body and use the body as food, slowly consuming the entire person.
Even Grandmaster realm experts would retreat from such Gu worms, but Lu Yang, with his immense divine abilities, wouldn't care about such petty tricks!
Lu Yang summoned a ball of fierce fire and directly burned all these black Gu worms to ashes, leaving none behind.
The scarred face had thought these Gu worms could trap Lu Yang for more than ten minutes, by which time he would have long since vanished without a trace. However, before the scarred face could escape, all the Gu worms were burned to death. This left the scarred face in despair, and he collapsed to the ground with a thud.
"How is this possible... How is this possible..."
The scarred face exclaimed in disbelief.
"Speak, who sent you?"
Lu Yang walked up to the scarred face and asked coldly.
"I'll talk, I'll talk! If you let me go, I'll do anything!"
The scarred face was willing to do anything for survival; it was his nature. Even if he were asked to kill his own mother, the scarred face wouldn't hesitate.
"It was... the Gaoli Conglomerate who found me and gave me one hundred million to kill the woman beside you. I saw these two women were very beautiful, so I couldn't bear to kill them!" xxs
"The Gaoli Conglomerate is also planning to take action against everyone around you, and I am not the only assassin; there are others!"
The scarred face looked at Lu Yang and revealed everything he knew.
"Gaoli Conglomerate?"
"Hmph, a bunch of untrustworthy dogs. They claimed to engage in a trade war with me, but before we could truly clash, they were defeated by me. Now they resort to such low-class tactics to coerce me, so don't blame me for being impolite!"
"Gaoli Conglomerate, tonight will be your final frenzy!"
Lu Yang sneered and pointed a finger at the scarred face's forehead. Before the scarred face could even scream, he fell to the ground, completely dead.
"Sir, what do we do now?"
"Perhaps besides us, others have also been assassinated!"
Lu Wushuang stood beside Lu Yang, and upon hearing the scarred face's words, immediately asked.
"You two go back. Leave this matter to me!"
Lu Yang said indifferently.
"Yes!"
Lu Wushuang immediately agreed.
"Lu Yang, you must be careful. The Gaoli Conglomerate is not to be trifled with. They sent so many assassins; it must be significant!"
Shen Yiman also walked over and said to Lu Yang with concern.
"Mm, I know!"
Lu Yang nodded, handed the car keys to Lu Wushuang, and then walked towards the Haitong Group.
"Old Lin, where are you now?"
Lu Yang called Lin Guoxiong. He had a premonition that those assassins would definitely target Lin Guoxiong.
"I just finalized the steel furnace matter with a steel mill owner and am on my way back!"
Lin Guoxiong replied directly.
"You drive through the city, don't take shortcuts, and go directly to Haitong Group. There are assassins!"
Lu Yang continued.
"Okay, I understand!"
Lin Guoxiong finished speaking and, as Lu Yang instructed, did not take any shortcuts but drove along the main road all the way to Haitong Group.
Meanwhile, in the General Manager's office of Haitong Group, which was Lin Guoxiong's office, two assassins were already lurking.
As soon as Lu Yang entered, a gleaming samurai sword slashed towards his head.
"Hmm? Japanese?"
Seeing the silvery-white glint of the samurai sword, Lu Yang let out a cold snort and smashed out a fist, directly breaking the samurai sword. The warrior wielding the sword was sent flying back by Lu Yang's punch.
"Baka, we were tricked! This Chinese is too powerful, run quickly!"
The warrior shouted, and his figure instantly disappeared from his original position, attempting to flee.
"Do you think you can escape?"
Lu Yang sneered, instantly locked onto the warrior's aura, and then slapped towards the direction the warrior was escaping.
"Bang!"
With a loud bang, the warrior's head was directly smashed by Lu Yang's palm, scattering brain matter everywhere.
The other warrior hidden in the shadows dared not move. Seeing his companion being so brutally killed, he was already pale with fear and utterly lost.
The intelligence they received earlier was that these people were just ordinary individuals. How did they become so powerful and formidable now? They had transcended the scope of martial artists and could see through their Japanese ninjutsu at a glance. How powerful must such a person's cultivation be?
"Are you still hiding there, preparing for seppuku?"
Lu Yang saw a dark spot and shouted coldly.
"What? Discovered?"
This assassin thought he had hidden very well, but he never expected to be discovered. His face was filled with extreme dread.
However, facing such a powerful enemy, the assassin had no choice but to submit to his fate.
"Don't kill me, I surrender!"
When the assassin emerged, it turned out to be a woman.
"Hmm? Female ninja?"
Seeing the woman before him, Lu Yang instantly recalled his past visit to the Nandu Shrine where he had encountered a sinister and venomous female ninja. However, after he absorbed all the spiritual energy of Watanabe Ichiro, his cultivation had greatly increased, and that sinister and venomous female ninja and everyone behind her at the Nandu Shrine were no match for Lu Yang.
He hadn't expected to encounter a female ninja again after a few months.
It had to be said that the female ninja before him possessed superior beauty. Although not comparable to Natsume Reiko, she was still very good, possessing a touch more purity and tenderness.
"Who are you, and why are you trying to assassinate me?"
Lu Yang looked at the female ninja and asked coldly.
