An Long convened this meeting today to gauge the intentions of the Black Robe Envoys.
Who would have thought their answers would bring An Long immense joy?
It seemed they were truly sincere in their allegiance.
If that was the case, what was there to hesitate about?
They should just strike!
"Good..." An Long waved his arm, issuing the command, "Then we shall make a trip to Lin Cheng and thoroughly eradicate this Dark Night from the Dark Night Organization!"
"No problem!"
"Yes!"
Thus, the entire senior leadership of Dark Night found themselves in complete agreement.
United in purpose, like pissing in the same chamber pot.
An Long felt incredibly pleased... Dark Night, oh Dark Night, you probably never imagined you'd face this day!
The Black Robe Envoys you meticulously cultivated have, in the blink of an eye, become blades in my hand.
"Haha!"
An Long burst into laughter.
To be honest, he was getting a little carried away with his triumph.
And so, the six of them set off, making their way to Lin Cheng at the fastest possible speed!
Just like that, the night passed quickly.
On Chen Fan's end, after seeing Xia Bingqing off, he was loafing around in the security office.
Before going upstairs, Xia Bingqing had shot Chen Fan a fierce glare, as if to say, "You'd better behave yourself!"
Chen Fan noticed this and let out a cold snort, thinking, "Still so feisty even when you're the one chasing me, you must be asking for a beating!"
However, he didn't say anything more...
Around five in the afternoon, a figure of a hunched old person approached the security room.
Their face was a map of wrinkles, like a landscape of ravines, giving an impression of fragility.
She tapped on the glass and said to Chen Fan, "Young man, I've bought some things, could you help me carry them?"
"I..."
Chen Fan was very happy to help others.
He stepped out of the window.
"Of course!"
Seeing this, the old woman exclaimed, "Young man, you're so handsome!"
"If only I had such spirited legs as yours, how wonderful that would be! Alas, one grows old and cannot deny it!"
Chen Fan smiled, "You're still young!"
The old woman waved her hand, sighing, "No, no, my old bones might give out at any moment!"
Chen Fan walked to the roadside and pointed, "Is it this box?"
"Yes, this box..." the old woman nodded, stooping slightly as she came up behind Chen Fan.
Chen Fan crouched down to pick up the box. The moment his hand touched it, he realized something was amiss.
Because the box was coated with something similar to glue, something very viscous.
"This... what is this..."
At that very moment, the old woman's expression suddenly changed. A gleaming dagger appeared from her sleeve.
It lunged towards Chen Fan's back.
"Fool, you fell for it!"
Fortunately, Chen Fan was quick to react, or he might have been pierced right then and there.
Stumbling back two steps, he avoided the attack.
The old person, who had been disguised, suddenly revealed a powerful aura, their breath steady and strong.
"Chen Fan, prepare to die!"
Chen Fan understood; they had come because of the bounty on his head.
"Having been poisoned by my Thousand Leaf Poison, you are doomed to die today!" the fake old woman roared with laughter, "Haha... give me your life!"
After evading ten consecutive strikes, Chen Fan looked down to see his palm had turned black.
It seemed the poison was exceptionally potent!
Chen Fan remained calm. He channeled his internal energy, shattering the box in his hand, and then used his internal energy to expel the poison. In a short while, his palm returned to its original color.
The reason he could successfully detoxify himself was due to the immense power of his internal energy.
Seeing this, the fake old woman's heart jolted violently, "This... how is this possible? How can this be?"
