The fat man calmly opened the door, casting a contemptuous glance at the man and woman not far away before doing so.
They said they were called the Black and White Impermanence, but apparently, Impermanence was also afraid of trouble.
What a false reputation!
The fat man walked into the house with a smug look on his face.
The room was brightly lit, and the floor was covered in black—these were the蛊 worms that hadn't been killed by the fire.
Seeing that so many蛊 worms remained, the fat man couldn't help but sneer.
They said the people here were masters, yet they still managed to leave so many蛊 worms. It seemed everyone had exaggerated.
A few people were lying on the ground in front of him, men and women, including Fang Ying and Fang Yan. The fat man's eyes gleamed with lust.
"These two little chicks, and the beauty inside, hahaha, I'm in for a treat tonight."
As he leered, his gaze swept across the floor, and he suddenly felt something was amiss.
He had summoned two types of蛊 worms: one that flew and one that crawled on the ground. Why were there only crawling蛊 worms now?
Upon closer inspection, many of the crawling蛊 worms were actually flying mosquitoes.
As a蛊 master, the fat man knew very well that these蛊 worms would not stop on the ground for no reason, and he hadn't given any commands himself.
What was going on?
He frowned.
"This is bad!"
The next second, he suddenly realized what was happening and dashed towards the door.
"You dead fatso, you're quite quick to react, but it's still too late."
Xiao Ming's voice, like that of a ghost, echoed.
Just moments ago, he had been playing dead on the ground, and now he was behind the fat man.
*Crack.*
Before the fat man could react, Xiao Ming knocked him unconscious.
At this moment, the door was shut tight. Those outside had no idea what had transpired inside, only that the fat man had gone in and hadn't come out for a long time.
"If this were the Lin family, this dead fatso would have been killed long ago," Xiao Ming scoffed.
Not killing was Lin Xiao Tian's order. Back in the daytime, Lin Xiao Tian had said that unless absolutely necessary, they should never kill anyone. After all, many eyes were on him now, and Lin Xiao Tian was afraid of giving anyone an excuse to cause trouble.
And these assassins were all top-tier criminals designated by the authorities. If they were handed over to the authorities, it would not only be a great achievement but also earn them some bounty—a win-win situation.
Of course, only Lin Xiao Tian dared to make such a demand.
Despite the numerous assassins lurking outside, in Lin Xiao Tian's eyes, they were no different from a flock of sheep venturing into a tiger's den to seek death!
Soon after, following the fat man's capture, there was movement from the backyard.
The dwarf's movement techniques were excellent, but his combat power was still lacking. In a head-on confrontation, he was being suppressed by Liang Xu.
By the time Xiao Ming and the others arrived, the dwarf was already surrounded.
"Why… why are you all out here? Aren't you worried about those蛊 worms?" the dwarf asked in surprise, looking at everyone.
"Those蛊 worms are all lying obediently on the ground right now. Don't worry, we'll take you to see them shortly!"
Xiao Ming said with a smile, looking at the dwarf.
Before long, the dwarf was also brought to the living room.
Upon seeing the quietly gathered蛊 worms all over the floor, the dwarf lost control of his emotions.
"This… how is this possible?"
He knew very well that even with a蛊 master present, these蛊 worms couldn't be this quiet, unless they were dead.
But the death of蛊 worms meant they vanished without a trace, and they certainly wouldn't be lying motionless!
The dwarf wanted to ask what had happened, but Xiao Ming directly struck him on the back of the head.
Before long, the dwarf was also subdued.
There was still a couple outside, but they were very cautious and hadn't made any move.
The night grew deeper.
During this time, more assassins infiltrated Lin Xiao Tian's house.
But without exception, not a single one of them came out.
The Black and White couple exchanged glances, and in the end, they obediently left their posts.
The next day, Lin Xiao Tian reported to the police.
Soon, the police arrived in Jinsha Village.
But upon seeing the heavily wanted criminals being brought out one by one from Lin Xiao Tian's house, the police officer was dumbfounded.
These wanted criminals were a challenge for every country; they had even wiped out an entire special forces team. They were, in essence, invincible.
Yet, now, they were all captured in a house in this small mountain village.
The police officer didn't dare to delay and immediately reported to higher authorities.
The high-ranking officials were also shocked upon hearing the news and notified the military to cooperate in apprehending them.
Soon, Jinsha Village was buzzing with activity.
Groups of fully armed soldiers appeared at Lin Xiao Tian's doorstep. They handcuffed the wanted criminals captured by Lin Xiao Tian and carefully escorted them away.
The escort operation lasted an entire day. Only after one wanted criminal was secured would the next one be brought out. Armed helicopters even patrolled the skies in coordination.
By dusk, Jinsha Village had finally quieted down.
The authorities expressed their gratitude to everyone and mentioned that Xiao Ming and the others would be awarded. However, Xiao Ming was from the Lin family and preferred to keep a low profile, and Lin Xiao Tian also favored peace and quiet. As a result, the offer was politely declined.
However, the bounty money was something they couldn't refuse. In the end, Lin Xiao Tian provided an account number.
In the evening, Lin Xiao Tian received a notification of the deposit.
"The bounty has been deposited," Lin Xiao Tian announced to everyone.
"How much?" Xiao Ming asked expectantly.
"Five million."
"That means one million per person," Xiao Ming calculated. "It seems catching these people is also a good way to get rich. If I'm ever out of money, I'll go catch a few wanted criminals for fun."
After Xiao Ming said this, everyone present, except for Lin Xiao Tian, looked at him in unison.
It was indeed a good way to get rich, but the question was, could anyone do it?
If not for Lin Xiao Tian's methods last night, those蛊 worms would have killed them.
"I was just joking. These people aren't easy to catch," Xiao Ming chuckled.
In the evening, the assassins returned.
Having witnessed their teammates being eliminated last night, they were much more cautious this time.
After some planning, a few assassins decided to attack together.
Lin Xiao Tian's house had only five capable fighters, and they also had to protect Qin Yuxiang. If they attacked together, they were sure to succeed.
The mistake of those who came last night was their overconfidence. They could have ganged up, but instead, they were ganged up on, ultimately losing their lives and giving money to their opponents.
Soon, the assassins began their group raid.
The main door opened easily; in fact, it wasn't even locked.
The hall was pitch black, but they quickly spotted Xiao Ming and the others hiding in the darkness.
"Attack!"
The leading assassin roared.
The next moment, the assassins launched their team battle.
Their team battle was nearly perfect, with archers responsible for projectiles, mages for poison, and assassins for surprise attacks. Facing the four individuals before them, they were in a two-on-one situation.
Under normal circumstances, they would have won.
But this was not a normal situation…
