Chapter 572: Chapter 572 Assassination (4)

Furthermore, not counting Old Lady An and Kong Shi, two women who could only defend themselves, the An Family had only four combatants, while their opponents had seven.

Although Xiao Hei and Old Jin were present, these assassins were not the previously weak Feng Family Five Brothers, and besides, the cat and dog had to both protect the An Family members and contend with the enemy, struggling to break free from the fight.

The battle gradually began to shift unfavorably, with the scales of victory slowly tipping toward the seven assassins.

By now, everyone had sustained injuries. Although the An Family lacked practical combat experience, their relentless and tenacious spirit had dramatically enhanced their strength, allowing them to entangle with the assassins for quite some time.

This tense situation caused great restlessness and shock among the assassins. They had initially planned to assassinate a few ordinary people, but unexpectedly, they encountered several Ancient Martial Artists on the verge of entering the Innate Realm.

That would have been acceptable, as they had no control over the investigation. But what they hadn’t anticipated was that a few Ancient Martial Artists around the Great Achievement level could actually tie up these Initial Stage Innate Realm martial cultivators for so long! And what on earth were that dog and cat!

It seemed that today’s situation couldn’t end peacefully! Gritting their teeth, the assassins steeled their resolve and each began to unleash their best moves!

The lead man in black took advantage of an opening, managing to shake off Old Jin and dashed towards the wary Old Lady An and Kong Shi.

During the fight, he had clearly observed that among the An Family, these two women were the weakest!

Meow my goodness! Dare to mess with Master Cat!

Fury rising from his heart, Old Jin’s cat eyes fiercely narrowed into a golden slit and with a fierce cry, he swiftly lunged at the man in black!

However, in the blink of an eye, the man in black moved first, causing Old Jin to completely miss his pounce.

As the sinister-looking leader of the assassins drew closer, Kong Shi panicked and protectively positioned Old Lady An behind her, then she astonishingly pulled out a small revolver from behind her back and stared deadly at the assassin who was less than two meters away from her!

"Stop! Move and I’ll shoot!" Kong Shi steadied her nerves and said fiercely. The usually gentle and graceful woman had, in that moment, transformed into a fearless and ruthless fighter—her cold expression was the spitting image of An Yiqing’s!

Kong Shi’s threat did indeed cause the man in black to halt his advance.

He was only an Initial Stage Innate Realm martial cultivator, and he couldn’t completely avoid injury from such firearms.

Old Master An’s battle was splattered with blood. An Zisheng and Zhihang had been injured, and Old Jin and Xiao Hei were tightly engaged by the other assassins. These men were trying to create an opportunity for their leader to capture Kong Shi and Old Lady An as hostages.

On this side, Kong Shi stood rigidly with a tense and vigilant face, holding the gun. The man in black stood silently in place, eyes fixed on Kong Shi’s without moving, releasing his oppressive aura, trying to crush her willpower with his presence.

Old Lady An behind Kong Shi watched the man opposite nervously, subtly shifting her stance, ready to help Kong Shi in a moment of crisis.

One minute passed, feeling like a decade in Kong Shi’s heart. The man in black’s oppressive aura almost kept her from breathing.

Just then, there was a flicker in Kong Shi’s expression, and the man in black’s heart leaped with joy as he quickly knocked the revolver from Kong Shi’s hand with a deceptive move!

Kong Shi was startled, and both she and Old Lady An dodged the man in black’s attack at the fastest speed. They rolled clumsily on the soft carpet and when they looked up again, they were horrified to see the man in black’s large hands nearly reach Kong Shi’s neck!
