Chapter 0006 Has the Era Changed

The gunfire rang out, yet Mengxi only heard a series of bone-cracking sounds. A gust of wind brushed past her legs, and the figure that was about to crash into her embrace suddenly vanished from her sight at the moment the gun fired, leaving no trace behind

Demonic magic? ! Taoist arts? !

He Hong also remarked with a sense of lamentation

Due to the excessive speed and precision of the movements, which exceeded the capturing range of the retina, it created an illusion for the individuals involved of "wall-passing" and "teleportation"

After watching the match between Wu Heshan and Zhou Yuanjue, he realized that this individual's boxing skills and physical fitness had reached an extraordinarily terrifying level, almost inhuman.

Zhou Yuanjue seemed to sense the mockery from the era

The lark's throat emitted a bone-cracking sound that sent chills down one's spine, and a trace of disbelief lingered in her enchanting eyes, as if she could not fathom that the other party would actually choose such an unfathomable method to end her life

At this moment, evasion is the most foolish choice

It is a pity

The tall man, at the moment he collided with Mengxi, suddenly crouched down, his massive body quickly shrinking amidst a series of cracking sounds, like a nimble and cunning raccoon, darting through Mengxi's legs.

In the southern coastal area, a pavilion stands above the sea, connected by a winding corridor. The pavilion features a white base adorned with cloud patterns, exuding an ancient Eastern charm. This is a well-known private kitchen in Wuhai, named "Cloud Pavilion on the Sea," which only hosts exclusive banquets for the elite. Even those with wealth may find it difficult to secure a reservation.

Bang bang bang

However, he did not evade; instead, he suddenly charged towards the nearest Mengxi.

Two professional assassins, attacking from both sides, are willing to fight to the death; this is a life-and-death crisis

Hello to both of you, I am Mengxi, and she is Yunque. It is a great honor to have the opportunity to host you both. Please come in

Two black pistols suddenly appeared in Zhou Yuanjue's line of sight

He Hong smiled and said to Zhou Yuanjue

The voice of the female greeter is soft and gentle, evoking an innate sense of warmth and familiarity upon first hearing it

Before even entering, they saw the waitstaff inside bowing to them from a distance

In the blink of an eye, he had arrived before Yunque, carrying the blood-soaked and tattered Mengxi.

Skillfully bypassed the human skeleton, akin to a butcher skillfully dismembering an ox

He Hong and Zhou Yuanjue got out of the car

She prepared to collide head-on with the opponent to buy time, delaying their actions. Even if she were severely injured, her gun could still take the opponent's life. Even if she could not, her companions behind her would be able to strike at the moment she blocked the opponent, eliminating them.

She bent her body and hunched her back, her left hand immediately protecting her chest, while the motion of her right hand drawing the gun did not slow down, but rather became even quicker

Before he could finish his words, a sound resembling a bird's chirp erupted, and a sharp chill suddenly appeared at his neck

Unfortunately, it is no longer the era of martial arts

As Zhou Yuanjue lunged forward, there was no trace of panic on Mengxi's beautiful face

The times have changed, ten years of martial arts training cannot withstand the sound of a gunshot

They are all professionals who understand the lethal power of these close-combat fighters, the terrifying speed and explosiveness of which they can absolutely not aspire to

However, Zhou Yuanjue stopped in his tracks, standing before the brightly lit attic door. He turned around and said to He Hong: "It has been a year and a half since the previous person in charge passed away, hasn't it?"

Zhou Yuanjue let out a slight sigh

Welcome!

Thank you for your trouble

During the process of attendance, they never presented their backs to Zhou Yuanjue. This seemingly reflects the etiquette of the host, but in reality, it conceals a deadly intent

She is unable to comprehend what is happening to her, while the lark on the other side sees it clearly

In ancient times, assassins developed this skill to enhance their ability to conceal themselves and move stealthily. It allows them to contract their bones or temporarily disassemble their joints, enabling them to perform actions that defy logic and hide in positions unimaginable to their enemies, delivering a fatal blow.

The skill of contracting the bones

Even if the Red Falcon Fist is perfected and as strong as Zhou Yuanjue, in the face of modern firearms, one can only tread cautiously, as if walking on thin ice

He Hong's smile grew even more intense.

In the next moment, an intense chill emanated from behind her, and Zhou Yuan had unexpectedly arrived behind her without her noticing

To be precise, it has been one year and nine months

At this moment, He Hong was also drenched in cold sweat. As the project leader for the decisive fist initiative in Wuhai, he himself was a practitioner of the decisive fist and had been a top-tier competitor in his prime. Although he had not stepped onto the stage for many years, he had not neglected his training. He never expected that in just one encounter, he would almost be defeated by Zhou Yuanjue.

In the blink of an eye, life and death hang in the balance

Bang

The car stopped at the entrance of the Cloud Palace by the Sea, and immediately two elegantly dressed hostesses in qipaos, with charming and dignified appearances, approached the vehicle with bright smiles to greet the guests

She is well aware that there is no need for rescue once one has fallen into the hands of a martial artist of this caliber; survival is virtually impossible. Therefore, she bears no psychological burden.

How was it accomplished

In an instant, Mengxi almost believed she was in a fantasy world

Zhou Yuanjue sat in He Hong's sedan and quickly arrived at the destination

Caw!

A palm suddenly thrust through a hole in the chest of Mengxi, created by a bullet, and precisely grasped the throat of the lark

The bullet penetrated his skin and superficial muscles, causing blood to spatter, but it was firmly trapped by his resilient muscles, unable to harm the internal organs

Please

As the largest comprehensive entertainment area in Wuhai City, it is quite easy to find a place to eat.

Pfft

If she withstands a collision, she may suffer serious injuries, but if she takes a bullet, the opponent will certainly die

In exchange for injury, they do not hesitate to face the risks of severe injury or even death in order to complete their tasks. In the midst of such rapid combat, they are able to overcome the instinctual fear of the human body and instantly find the most efficient and swift solutions. These individuals are undoubtedly the true professionals cultivated by the Black-tailed Kite.

Zhou Yuanjue nodded, and under the guidance of the two female hosts, Mengxi and Yunque, he passed through the winding corridor and arrived at the entrance of the Cloud Palace on the sea. The ancient-style pavilion doors were wide open, brightly lit, revealing a hall decorated in a classical and luxurious manner

The immense force of the large-caliber handgun at close range blasted gaping wounds into Mengxi's body, with bullets piercing through and striking Zhou Yuanjue.

Making a reservation here is no easy task, their dishes are considered a unique delicacy in Wuhai, and I put in quite a bit of effort to secure it, I hope you will be satisfied

He Hong had a slightly plump face adorned with a faint smile, and he gestured to invite Zhou Yuanjue.

Mengxi smiled, ultimately she was a step ahead. At the moment Zhou Yuanjue collided with her, the muzzle of her gun was already aimed at his body

The lark showed no hesitation at all, as the dark muzzle of the gun spat fire, continuously shooting at Mengxi, who was being used as a human shield by Zhou Yuan.

Following closely beside Zhou Yuanjue, the graceful and fair-featured Mengxi and Yunque reached for their waists at the moment he made his move

Upon seeing Mengxi for a brief moment, Zhou Yuan immediately understood the situation.

The times have changed

He Hong's pupils constricted sharply, and his reaction speed was extremely fast. He suddenly shrank back, performing a roll to evade Zhou Yuanjue's attack range. His suit was in disarray, and there was a slight pain at his Adam's apple, which had already broken the skin and bled. Had he been even half a moment later, his entire Adam's apple would have been shattered.

However, after being buffered by Mengxi's body, the bullet's kinetic energy was reduced to less than one-third. This level of power might still be capable of inflicting fatal harm on an ordinary person, but not on him

Click!

In the next moment, she saw a large hand gripping Mengxi's neck, pushing her towards herself as if lifting a sack, the speed surprisingly no slower than before

Has it been so long? That is truly a pity
