Chapter 48: The Assassination of Chen Tianfang

"Ding! The host has consumed 3,000 divine points, and the host's level has advanced to the Intermediate Stage of the [Darkness Realm]."

In a modest room, Chen Haotian, leaning against the wall, opened his eyes upon hearing the noise, revealing a dangerous gaze.

"Hahaha..."

"The Intermediate Stage of the [Darkness Realm], I've finally reached it!"

Chen Haotian grinned, laughing uncontrollably.

With this breakthrough, his power had significantly increased, bringing him one step closer to reclaiming Xue'er.

"An assassin!"

"Quick, seize him!"

"Hurry... hurry, protect the master!"

Panic-stricken voices echoed from outside, immediately drawing Chen Haotian's attention.

"An assassin?"

"Interesting. I wonder who this Chen Tianfang guy has offended so much that someone would come here to kill him."

"Should I go watch the show, enjoying the sight of him being killed, or should I do a good deed and save this dog's life?"

Chen Haotian muttered with a malicious grin, as though he was eagerly waiting for Chen Tianfang's demise.

At this point, Chen Haotian felt no familial bond with Chen Tianfang; in fact, his greatest wish was to see him fall from grace.

Intent on enjoying the spectacle, Chen Haotian opened his room's door, ready to watch the drama unfold.

"You dare attempt to assassinate me in my own house, Chen Tianfang's house? This is outrageous!"

"A Lei, bring your men and capture them!"

Just as an incident at the mine had left Chen Tianfang furious, the audacity of Tao Ruisi and [Gui Suanzi, the Ghost Operator] to trespass into his home pushed him to capture them and vent his anger.

A Lei, mentioned by Chen Tianfang, was a former Dragon Group member who retired due to an injury. Now, he worked under Chen Tianfang as head of security, tasked with ensuring his safety.

Over the years, A Lei had resolved numerous issues for him. With A Lei's involvement, handling this pair of intruders should be no challenge.

Shortly after, the Chen family's servants surrounded Tao Ruisi and Gui Suanzi.

"Move aside, let me deal with them!"

A Lei leaped into the fray.

"You mercenaries from the King's Hall have guts to cause trouble at the Chen household. I'll give you one chance: surrender now, and I might spare your lives."

"Hahaha..."

"This dog seems pretty fierce. Gui Suanzi, weren't you worried about me killing innocents? Then handle this mutt yourself."

To Tao Ruisi, this man at the Advanced Stage of the [Clarity Realm] was nothing more than a dog—not even worth her effort to fight.

"How dare you!"

"You're so arrogant, let's see how you fare!"

Enraged at being ignored by Tao Ruisi, A Lei attacked first, aiming directly at her.

"Your opponent is me!"

Gui Suanzi leaped into the battle, intercepting A Lei.

Among the Four Dragons and Four Protectors of the King's Palace, Gui Suanzi's skills were the weakest, even below Tao Ruisi's. Now, he was only at the Advanced Stage of the [Clarity Realm].

Both being evenly matched, their skills clashed for over ten exchanges without a decisive outcome.

Meanwhile, Tao Ruisi, watching from the side, grew impatient.

"You rats, go to hell. Don't make me act rudely!"

Tao Ruisi glared at the Chen family servants, not taking them seriously in the slightest.

"Still acting arrogant!"

"Everyone, attack! Their lives don't matter!"

Chen Tianfang waved his hand, and a group of servants charged toward Tao Ruisi and Gui Suanzi.

"Good! This is what you get. Auntie's going to raise some hell now."

With a flick of her wrist, Tao Ruisi sent out several flying daggers, instantly killing several advancing servants.

"Tao Ruisi, stop being reckless! Don't kill innocents and don't cause trouble for the King!"

Gui Suanzi, seeing the situation escalate, grew anxious.

Despite his repeated warnings, Tao Ruisi acted on her own terms.

"Attacking me while distracted? That's suicide!"

Taking advantage of Gui Suanzi's distraction, A Lei landed a direct blow to his chest, sending him flying backward.

"Gui Suanzi, are you okay?"

Seeing Gui Suanzi thrown back, Tao Ruisi launched another flurry of daggers, killing more servants before rushing to his side.

"Don't worry, these hits are nothing. The Chen family is prepared—we'd better leave for now."

Their original plan was to intimidate Chen Tianfang, making him retreat.

But they hadn't anticipated that Chen Tianfang was already prepared, and Tao Ruisi's actions had killed innocents, escalating the conflict.

Now, not only had they failed to frighten Chen Tianfang, but they had deepened their feud.

Gui Suanzi wasn't sure how he would explain this to Mo Bufan upon their return.

"Fine, let's carve a bloody path out of here."

As Tao Ruisi and Gui Suanzi fought while retreating, preparing to leave the Chen residence, Chen Tianfang seized the opportunity.

"Capture them! Dead or alive, anyone who catches one gets a million-dollar reward."

Under the lure of money, the Chen family servants surged with energy, fearlessly attacking Tao Ruisi and Gui Suanzi.

"Damn it, you're asking for death!"

Seeing the relentless attacks, Tao Ruisi grew furious, abandoning the retreat and throwing daggers everywhere, killing several more.

"Chen Tianfang, let me show you the power of Auntie's daggers!"

Leaping into the air, Tao Ruisi stepped on a servant's head and hurled a dagger straight at Chen Tianfang's head.

Terrified, Chen Tianfang instinctively ducked, the dagger grazing his scalp and leaving a sharp pain.

"How interesting, really interesting."

"Who could this old man have offended so badly that two experts would come to kill him?"

"But that's the fate of villains: other villains punish them. I'll just enjoy the show."

From a corner, Chen Haotian watched it all unfold.

Seeing Chen Tianfang in such a pitiful state, with his hair in tatters, brought Chen Haotian immense joy—he almost clapped in delight.

After all, that man was his father, and though filled with flaws, Chen Haotian wouldn't dare punish him directly. Now that someone else was doing it, he nearly wanted to thank the beautiful woman.

"Laughing, are we?"

"I'll wipe that smirk off your face!"

As Tao Ruisi glanced at Chen Haotian laughing in the corner, she hurled a flying dagger at him.

What the hell?

Is this aimed at me?

Chen Haotian felt wronged—he was only watching the show, and now a "stray bullet" was heading his way.

No, it didn't seem like a stray bullet—it looked deliberate.

But could such a thing even hurt me?

Chen Haotian smirked disdainfully, extending two fingers and effortlessly catching the dagger mid-air.

"Nice dagger you've got there. Where'd you get it made?"

"If you like it, I'll give you a few more."

Without wasting time, Tao Ruisi launched three more daggers in a triangular formation, aiming straight for Chen Haotian.
