Chapter 20: The Witch's Assassination Attempt

Gu Ye walked to the main road, took out his phone, and prepared to hail a taxi home.

"Buzz~"

A sword's cry suddenly rang out.

Gu Ye's mental strength was already stronger than that of an ordinary fourth-tier bronze warrior, so he immediately sensed the direction of the attack and quickly rolled to the side to dodge.

Having dodged the attack, Gu Ye immediately summoned Zhang Fei to prepare for battle. He looked at the wound on his arm, which was still bleeding, and felt a wave of fear. If he had been a step slower, it wouldn't have been just a minor arm injury; he might have lost his head.

Zhang Fei guarded Gu Ye's side. As a military general, he had no scouting skills and was helpless against enemies who could turn invisible. He could only wait for the enemy to attack before he could launch a counterattack.

Suddenly, the sound of a sword ringing out rang out again, and Zhang Fei immediately sensed the direction of the attack.

"right"

Zhang Fei's spear intercepted the attack, and Gu Ye, who was behind, also saw the attacker clearly. The person looked like a man, but had many feminine features.

Knowing so much information, how could Gu Ye not guess where this person came from?

Gu Ye's eyes hardened, and he gritted his teeth as he spat out three words: "The Witch's Society."

"How did they find me?"

Gu Ye quickly sensed the assassin's strength as Bronze Ninth Rank using his mental power, realizing that he was no match for him.

Gu Ye gave Zhang Fei a look, and Zhang Fei immediately understood what he meant.

Zhang Fei shouted and activated his skill [Roar I]. Before the assassin could react, he was immobilized on the spot. Gu Ye took advantage of the situation and ran towards the black market hut.

"Click~ Click"

Gu Ye sprinted with all his might, alternating between his legs, when suddenly a sharp, piercing sound came from behind him! He turned around and his pupils contracted sharply. The assassin had broken free of his restraints with ease and pounced on him again like an arrow released from a bow.

Upon seeing this, Zhang Fei immediately summoned [Black Cloud Treading Snow - Black Steed] to enhance his combat power and intercept the assassin, buying Gu Ye time to escape.

Seeing that it was this burly man blocking his way again, the assassin shouted impatiently, "Get out of my way!"

The assassin's body erupted with spiritual energy, his aura surging. His longsword, carrying surging spiritual energy, sliced ​​through the air and slashed fiercely at Zhang Fei. Zhang Fei wielded his eighteen-foot spear, desperately trying to block. The moment they made contact, Zhang Fei's expression changed drastically.

The difference in strength between the two was too great. The enormous impact swept over Zhang Fei along with the spear. He was unable to resist it at all and was slammed several meters away, leaving two deep trenches in the ground.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the assassin quickly approached Gu Ye, who was fleeing.

Gu Ye heard the approaching whooshing sound behind him and looked anxious. He really didn't want to waste a life-saving card, but now that he was about to lose his life, he had no choice but to use it.

Gu Ye took out the card, just as he was about to use it, when a series of piercing horn sounds rang out.

Although the assassin heard the sound, his target was always Gu Ye. He channeled his spiritual energy into his longsword, flicked his wrist, and the longsword shot towards Gu Ye at lightning speed.

At the critical moment, a dark figure emerged from underground, grabbed Gu Ye's legs, and interrupted him from continuing to use the cards.

The assassin's longsword missed its target. He stood there, his eyes scanning the surroundings, trying to locate Gu Ye. After searching, the silent night offered no sound.

"Could he really have escaped?"

Fifty meters underground, a man in black took out an oxygen concentrator and put it on the still bewildered Gu Ye.

"I....."

Just as Gu Ye was about to speak, the man in black instantly covered his mouth.

"Don't speak, he can hear you."

A hoarse voice rang in Gu Ye's mind. Gu Ye glanced at him in surprise, then nodded to him, indicating that he should let go.

"Wait for him to leave."

The assassin noticed that Gu Ye's summoned creature, Zhang Fei, had also disappeared. After waiting a while and seeing no further movement, the assassin left.

Seeing the assassin leave, the man in black grabbed Gu Ye and tried to return to the ground.

Gu Ye reached out to stop him, gesturing for him to wait. The two waited underground for almost half an hour, and the man in black was getting a little impatient.

At this moment, Gu Ye patted him on the shoulder, making him look up. Just as Gu Ye had predicted, the assassin launched a surprise attack.

For the next three hours, the assassin would occasionally launch a surprise attack, leaving the two men underground speechless. The man in black was on the verge of a breakdown, staring resentfully at Gu Ye. Making money off Gu Ye was truly difficult!

After waiting for another three hours, and seeing that the assassin had not reappeared, the man in black dared to lead Gu Ye out of the underground.

"Final payment".

Gu Ye paid the bill, and the man in black vanished from his sight in an instant, not wanting to see him for even a second. Seeing this, Gu Ye shrugged helplessly. He was paid to do a job; what could he do?

Gu Ye hailed another taxi and returned home without incident.

Back home, Gu Ye took out the prepared medical card and antidote card, maintaining his usual cautious approach.

Even if the assassin's sword wasn't poisoned, he still had to disinfect himself inside and out. He only had one life; if he died, he would have nothing left.

After all that commotion, Gu Ye finally relaxed and lay down on the bed. Recalling the events of the day, he concluded that he was still not strong enough and that he still needed to settle scores with the Witches. He vowed to repay them properly when he had the chance.

Looking at the cold numbers on his phone, Gu Ye thought he should be able to advance to Bronze Rank 5 the day after tomorrow.

Now that he had collected almost all the materials, Gu Ye decided to immediately produce the Bloodline Card after his promotion. Originally, he had planned to postpone the production of the Bloodline Card.

But what happened today left a very deep impression on him; he almost lost his life.

To ensure his own safety, Gu Ye felt he couldn't delay any longer, otherwise, if the Witch's Guild members came again, he would be truly finished.

"But Sister Mu is across the street, so we're safe tonight. Never mind, let's go to sleep."

Gu Ye pulled the blanket over his belly button and closed his eyes to sleep.

..........

"Old Gu, what's wrong with you today? You seem listless."

Chu Ling handed the steamed meat bun in her hand to Gu Ye and sat down behind him.

"I went to bed too late last night."

Gu Ye didn't want to tell him about what happened last night to avoid worrying him, as Gu Ye knew what kind of person his brother was.

Moreover, the witch is targeting him, and if Chu Ling is dragged into it, the situation could become even more complicated.

As a neutral evil god church, the Witches' Guild is generally ignored by the Town Authority in the Yanxia Federation, as long as they don't cause trouble.

Unlike the Black Sheep Cult, the Human Cult, and other evil god churches that specialize in causing trouble on Earth, the Witch Society is a few evil god churches that are tacitly neutral among all the federations.

After what happened last night, Gu Ye understood that there was no such thing as a neutral church. It was just that the interests weren't enough to cross their bottom line. In a small place like Yunlin City, even a few million federal dollars would be coveted by those members of the Witch Society.

"Old Chu, have you crafted your bloodline cards yet?"

Gu Ye sensed that Chu Ling had already reached the sixth level of the Bronze Realm; her cultivation speed was truly impressive.

"It's done."

"Perfect for card players."

Gu Ye remembered that the Ye family had hired a platinum-level card master to specially customize bloodline cards for them. That's right, it was Chu Ling and Ye Suxuan.

At this moment, Ye Suxuan also arrived at the classroom. Seeing that the two were talking about bloodline cards, she interjected:

"Our bloodline cards complement each other, making us both among the top card players."

"I heard that Yan Shuangling's bloodline card has also been made."

"The bloodline cards for the disciples of aristocratic families have been basically completed."

Upon hearing this news, Gu Ye felt as if struck by lightning, on the verge of tears, realizing he was all alone.
