Chapter 824 Assassins (2)



After finding this person, Lin Fan didn’t make a move against him right away.

Instead, he watched this person for a bit to see what kind of moves they would make and also searched the area around that person to see if he could find any of that person’s accomplice.

To his surprise, he found them standing not far away and they also had a bound up Duanmu Hua Yu beside them.

The way they were standing, it was clear that they were amateurs…

But if they were amateurs, how could they have thought of this plan of waiting for Min’er by the entrance?

It didn’t seem likely that they would be able to think of this plan…So there must be a mastermind behind them that was hiding somewhere, watching everything…

So Lin fan didn’t make a move even after finding Duanmu Hua Yu. He just left a puppet in hiding nearby to make sure that Duanmu Hua Yu was safe before sending out more puppets in a net to search for the mastermind.

It seemed like Duanmu Hua Yu had suffered quite a bit after being kidnapped. His face had been completely battered black and blue and there were pieces of dry blood all over him.

Lin Fan didn’t know what intentions these people had in capturing Duanmu Hua Yu, but it didn’t seem like it was a simple case of kidnapping someone for money.

The more he thought about it, the more complicated it all seemed…

As Lin Fan had expected, it didn’t take him long before he was able to find the mastermind who was hiding away. This mastermind to his surprise actually chose to hide in the surveillance room of the coal mine.

The owner of the coal mine knew what his operation was doing to people, but he didn’t care about that. What he cared about was his own safety since he knew that every person that died had a family that would remember them, every person that died would have someone that would want to…take revenge for them.

So he didn’t hesitate to buy a top grade security system for the mine and for his private home.

Even though he could have invested money into buying better equipment that resulted in less death, he chose not to do so because it would cost more money to change his operations than to buy the things that kept him safe.

The mastermind was making use of this surveillance system.

On the side of the room, there were two people who were dressed as security guards that were lying on the ground in pools of blood. It was clear that they were no longer breathing.

The mastermind was a dark cloaked person who was currently sitting in a chair watching over the screens in front of them.

Lin Fan had also noticed this security system when he had sent Brainy’s puppets in, so he had made sure to tell Brainy to avoid all of these cameras with his puppets.

Since he had already found the mastermind and had secured the area, there was no need to hesitate anymore. He could tell from the auras of the kidnappers that they were only in the Fragmented Soul Realm and the mastermind was only in the Embryo Soul Realm, so there was no danger to him at all.

So with these thoughts, Lin Fan walked right through the gates of the quarry.

When he arrived, the person who had been keeping watch let him walk right through. That was until Lin Fan walked up right to this person.

The person keeping watch was naturally caught off guard, but then he revealed a fierce look and said, “Keep moving and get lost, or don’t blame me for being impolite.”

Lin Fan just revealed a smile and said, “But I have business with you?”

That person was caught off guard again, but then he said in a fierce voice again, “Business? I don’t even know…”

Before he could finish, he suddenly felt a strong force hitting him in the stomach as Lin Fan’s figure in front of him suddenly disappeared. Right when he was about to faint, he finally saw Lin Fan again standing right in front of him.

He struggled as he said, “What did you…”

But he couldn’t finish his words as his breath escaped him and he fell to the ground.

Not far away from this, the people who had been watching over him and Duanmu Hua Yu immediately reacted.

One of them stayed back to make sure that nothing would happen with Duanmu Hua Yu while the others all started moving forward to attack Lin Fan.

It was just too bad that before they could even react, there were vines that suddenly came out of the ground. The vines grabbed them by the legs and once they were on the ground, it started wrapping them up like a mummy.

These kidnappers tried to resist by cutting the vines that were wrapping around them with their weapons or calling out their pets to attack the vines surrounding them, but it was no use at all.

Whether it was the weapons or the pets, they couldn’t do a single thing to these vines. In fact, when the pets appeared, they were also wrapped up and trapped by these vines just like the kidnappers.

In just a matter of seconds, all the kidnappers had been trapped by the vines that had suddenly appeared.

It wasn’t just the kidnappers who were watching from afar.

The moment that the mastermind who had been watching from the surveillance room saw the strange happenings, he immediately planned on running. He knew that this wasn’t a good sign and if he stayed any longer, he would be implicated.

The kidnappers were just random workers that he had gathered with money, so he didn’t care about them at all. The most important thing was naturally his own life and his mission.

But it was just too bad that Lin Fan didn’t have any intentions of letting him get away.

Before the mastermind could react, there were vines that also came out of the floor under him.

No matter how he tried attacking these vines, they wouldn’t be stopped at all as they completely wrapped him up.

The people that had been trapped by the vines found that they couldn’t use their laws at all.

When they tried to gather life energy, they found that there wasn’t any life energy around them at all. Even when they tried using the life energy inside of them to do something, they found that the vines actually sucked away their life energy completely.

It was as if they were nothing more than flies trapped in a venus fly trap.

Lin Fan who had been standing at the entrance felt the squeeze from Brainy inside of his sleeve and he revealed a smile.

Without any hesitation, he lifted the man he had just knocked out and jumped over to where Duanmu Hua Yu was.𝗈𝑣𝓵xt.𝗇𝓔t

Duanmu Hua Yu had been watching in shock as his kidnappers were all trapped in vines, but when he recovered from his daze, he realized that this was his chance. Without any hesitation, he stood up and was about to run, but then he saw Lin Fan appearing in front of him.

He was once again shocked before gesturing something with his face, as if he was asking, “You did all of this?”

Lin Fan nodded and then freed Duanmu Hua Yu from his bindings before giving him the tablet.

The first thing that Duanmu Hua Yu wrote was, “Where’s Min’er? Is she safe?”

Lin Fan nodded before shaking his head and saying, “I don’t know where Min’er is, but she read your note and is hiding in the safe place that you agreed on.”

Duanmu Hua Yu was nervous hearing the first part, but then he revealed a look of relief and patted his chest.

But before Lin Fan or Duanmu Hua Yu could say anything else, Duanmu Hua Yu suddenly knitted his brows before spitting out a mouthful of black blood and collapsing to the ground.

Lin Fan was caught off guard by this, but he quickly reacted and disappeared from the spot.

When he appeared again, he was holding a figure wrapped up in vines that he tossed to the ground.

The vines around that person shrank back enough so their face was revealed.

The moment that the vines shrank back and light revealed itself again, the mastermind quickly looked around himself to see what the situation was. He was surprised to see that he was outside and he was even more surprised to see Lin Fan standing there, but seeing Duanmu Hua Yu on the ground, he revealed a smile.

That was because he had seen a path of life.

Without any hesitation, he immediately said, “He’s poisoned and I’m the only one that has the antidote to this poison. If you let me go, I’ll give it to you.”

Lin Fan didn’t say anything in response to this. All he did was stare at the mastermind which made him very uncomfortable.

That was because the gaze that Lin Fan was staring at him with was a pair of deep eyes that seemed like it could see through every part of him. It was as if there was nothing that he could hide in front of this gaze…

It was as if this gaze was staring right into his soul…

Feeling this feeling, the mastermind couldn’t help panicking as he quickly added, “If you don’t hurry…”

But Lin Fan suddenly cut in, “You’re lying. There’s no antidote.”

The mastermind couldn’t help staring at Lin Fan in shock as he heard this resolute words.
