Global alert! SSSSS-class overlord released from prison!

"Who is it?"

A cold glint flashed in Xiang Fan's eyes, and he easily dodged the attack with a quick movement of his foot.

The opponent's attack did not stop after failing to land a blow!

In the next instant, more than a dozen blades of light suddenly enveloped Xiang Fan.

Its power was so great that the air was filled with the sound of it being torn apart!

"Shadow Flow Sword Technique? From Japan?"

Xiang Fan's eyebrows twitched slightly, but his eyes were full of disdain.

"A trivial skill!"

With a slap, numerous blades were instantly shattered on the spot!

"Um?"

In the darkness, a dark figure uttered a surprised sound.

"Your strength is not weak, but today, you will die!"

With a low shout, the figure began to move again.

In an instant, a full thirty beams of cold light shot towards Xiang Fan.

It enveloped its entire body!

Not only that, the figure also took advantage of the darkness to quietly move towards Xiang Fan.

There wasn't a sound underfoot!

Approaching Xiang Fan from behind, the figure suddenly thrust out a sharp blade, aiming straight for Xiang Fan's back.

This strike was clearly intended to kill Xiang Fan!

Just when the shadowy figure thought his strike was a sure thing and would kill Xiang Fan on the spot.

Suddenly, his vision blurred.

Xiang Fan, who had been standing right in front of him, had vanished without a trace.

"Huh? Where is everyone?"

Could it be that those cold glints just now have already turned him into mincemeat?

But why couldn't even a trace of blood be left behind?

Just as he was wondering, a cold voice suddenly rang out behind him.

"Hidden assassination attempt, footsteps too heavy, failed!"

The shadowy figure was instantly terrified and quickly turned around, swinging the sharp blade in its hand fiercely.

What terrified him was that even after he struck Xiang Fan with his knife, Xiang Fan was still nowhere to be seen.

The voice behind him grew clearer and clearer.

"Too slow! Failure!"

A chill ran down the spine of the shadowy figure. With a flick of his wrist, more than a dozen ninja shuriken flew behind him.

He then dashed towards the door with incredible speed.

Just as the dark figure had stepped into the doorway and was about to rush out...

Xiang Fan's voice rang out again.

"If an assassin misses his target, he should flee a thousand miles away."

"Trying to escape now? A complete failure!"

"In that case, let's stay!"

With a cold shout, before the dark figure could react, a powerful suction force pulled him backward!

The next instant, he felt his neck being gripped tightly by a large hand!

"How...how is this possible?"

The shadowy figure's eyes were filled with horror.

"Releasing external energy to grab people from thin air—even innate masters can't do that!"

"Could it be that you've already reached the Grandmaster level?"

As soon as he finished speaking, fear welled up inside him.

How is it possible for such a young martial arts master?

But if that weren't the case, how could they have used such methods to keep themselves here?

Seeing the fear on the face of the dark figure in his hand, Xiang Fan showed no intention of offering any explanation.

"Who are you?"

"Why did you kill me?"

Before Xiang Fan could press for answers, suddenly, a sharp glint appeared in the shadowy figure's eyes.

"Want to know? Maybe in your next life!"

"Amaterasu Omikami will be with me!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the shadowy figure gritted his teeth.

Suddenly, a stream of black blood spilled from his mouth!

The next instant, his neck lolled to the side, and he stopped breathing.

Seeing this, Xiang Fan frowned.

"Assassin? Or assassin?"

He casually tossed the corpse aside and walked into the inner room.

Chu Qian can help him improve his strength, so she absolutely cannot be allowed to get into trouble!

As soon as the door was pushed open, Chu Qian was seen tied up on the bed in the inner room.

Her face paled, and her eyes reddened.

Xiang Fan quickly stepped forward and untied the ropes binding the other person.

"Miss Chu, are you alright?"

Upon suddenly seeing Xiang Fan, Chu Qian felt as if she had found her pillar of support.

Her eyes reddened, and she threw herself into his arms.

Tears streamed silently down her delicate face.

"Mr. Xiang, it's so good that you came!"

Seeing the fear on Chu Qian's face and her trembling body, Xiang Fan gently patted her back.

"Okay, it's alright now."

Xiang Fan's words seemed to have a kind of magic.

In addition, he subtly transferred his inner energy to the other party to ease their emotions.

Soon, Chu Qian's emotions finally stabilized.

Only then did she notice that Xiang Fan's chest was already soaked with her tears, and a hint of embarrassment appeared on her pretty face.

Seeing this, Xiang Fan slowly spoke.

"Miss Chu, what just happened?"

Upon hearing Xiang Fan's question, Chu Qian wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.

She clenched her teeth, a cold glint flashing across her pretty face.

"Mr. Xiang, do you remember me saying that the assassination attempt was carried out by a faction within the Mingyue Group?"

"That assassination attempt was orchestrated by my cousin in an attempt to take the position of president of Mingyue Group from me."

"I never expected that after his assassination attempt failed last time, he would contact the Japanese again to try and take my life!"

"If it weren't for Mr. Xiang speaking up just now, I'm afraid I would already be dead!"

Xiang Fan could hear the anger in Chu Qian's words, and raised an eyebrow.

"So, Miss Chu, you mean you want me to kill your cousin?"

Upon hearing this, Chu Qian shook her head.

"He's just a mouthpiece put forward by that faction."

"Killing him won't make much difference; there will just be a new spokesperson."

"Either do nothing, or if you do act, uproot that force completely!"

As she said this, a sharp glint suddenly appeared in her eyes, and a chilling killing intent emanated from her body.

Upon hearing Chu Qian's words, a hint of appreciation flashed in Xiang Fan's eyes.

It seems that the other party is a decisive and ruthless person.

No wonder he was able to take charge of the Mingyue Group!

He immediately nodded slightly.

"In that case, feel free to contact me when you need to take action."

Once the cooperation agreement was reached, Xiang Fan turned and left.

……

It was already 8:30 p.m. when we got back to the Wei family home.

As soon as Xiang Fan entered the villa, he saw Wei Hongfeng sitting in the living room.

Before he could even greet the other person, Wei Hongfeng had already stood up, his face serious.

"Come to the study with me."

Hearing this, Xiang Fan had some doubts, but he still obediently followed.

"Dad, what's wrong?"

Wei Hongfeng glanced at Xiang Fan and sighed.

He took a file folder from his desk and placed it in front of Xiang Fan.

"I originally planned to announce the cooperation with the Red Dragon Palace at the company meeting the day after tomorrow, and hand it over to Sakura to be in full charge."

"But today, all branches of the Wei family have signed a joint statement demanding that at the company's general meeting, I announce that the cooperation with the Crimson Dragon Palace must be included in every branch."

"This collaboration was negotiated by you on behalf of the Wei family, so I'd like to ask you, what are your plans?"
