Girl, I'll Teach You Cultivation

Chapter 187

There was no doubt that Jiang Xiu liked Cheng Lingran. Humans were all selfish, and Wang Xintong didn't believe he didn't wish to have Cheng Lingran, but she couldn't figure out why he got so angry.

This lass had forgotten what she had experienced just now and challenged Jiang Xiu's underline yet again. She lowered her voice, "Are you afraid she doesn't like you?"

Jiang Xiu's movements stopped.

Wang Xintong gazed at his marble-like perfectly chiseled face brazenly. His gaze was akin to a deep pool.

She waited for his answer.

However, what replied her was a cold, emotionless voice, "Do you really want to die? If you want, I can do it for you!"

"Who doesn't want to live in such a world full of sensual pleasures? I'm no exception." Her gaze full of anticipation dimmed down. She raised the cup filled with red wine, "A man would wish that the woman he loves lives a good life. He would place her glory higher than his and view her happiness as his own."

"You want her to be happy, right?"

Jiang Xiu didn't say anything. The violinist played a beautiful serenade befitting the night's cold, making it seem as if petals were flying in the wind. It was romantic yet sad.

Wang Xintong looked at Jiang Xiu and couldn't help but reach out to caress his grim, marble-like face, yet her hand was swatted away by him, "Don't use your narrow mindset to read this Deity."

She got pushed away by him yet again.

She saw Jiang Xiu's expression change all of a sudden. His hand stretched towards her head then suddenly pressed it down towards the steak. Wang Xintong was enraged as her face neared the steak. Bastard. Demon. So repulsive. You actually abuse me like this. She imagined the shameful appearance of her pretty face soaked in beef juices.

However, in the end, not even the tip of her nose had touched the steak. It was at this time she heard a bang sound beside her ears along with the plate rupturing beside her.

This is… a bullet?

Jiang Xiu wasn't punishing her just now but was instead saving her. If he hadn't lowered her head, her brains would have blown out.

Before she even had the time to react, the bullet had passed through her chair then through the table and shot into the floor, issuing a whooshing bullet echo.

"Aaaaaahhhhh…"

The guests on the cruise began to scream and scamper.

"Fuck!"

A shadow holding a sniper rifle cursed at a lighthouse far away. This certain kill-shot had actually missed due to that man. He couldn't believe someone could react so quickly. He had clearly seen through the scope that Jiang Xiu had moved after he had fired the shot.

Since the first shot had missed, he immediately shot another, followed by a third shot… but all had missed!

The entire deck was a mess already with everyone trying to escape the crowd. He simply couldn't take a successful shot at the target with such a chaotic situation.

The best hitmen killed their target in a single hit.

His rifle was a new-gen product of science and was made in Germany with a range of 1200 m. It was impossible to judge his location with such a distance between the target and him.

Therefore, he wasn't worried at all.

He began to calmly disassemble the gun and place it in his box then got down the lighthouse leisurely.

…

"Someone wants to kill me?"

Jiang Xiu said, "Looks like you've not only angered but also the others as well." His eyes slowly turned pitch-black as he gazed towards the lake and finally locked onto the lighthouse.

"Wait here. I'll be back soon."

The man picked up a rope from the lighthouse and tied it to the handle of the gun carrier. He then threw the carrier into the water. It didn't sink inside as it was a waterproof gun carrier. He jumped onto the speedboat and made his escape.

He took out his phone, "Boss, I missed. Right…" Suddenly, his eyes grew wide in disbelief. He shook his head sideways, "H-How is this possible?!"

A man walked over towards him from a distance at a leisurely pace.

Oh, fuck!

This is the middle of the lake!

Is this man walking on water?!

"Hello? Are you there?"

He didn't dare answer and subconsciously laid the phone down. That man appeared quite slow, but he had already reached in front of the speedboat in a few moments.

This was too terrifying.

"Who sent you?" Jiang Xiu asked him.

He looked at Jiang Xiu with utter shock then gulped down. This youth was the same youth who was having dinner with Wang Xintong. The man whose movements were faster than a bullet.

"Are you a human or a demon?"

Jiang Xiu told him, "Even if you don't tell me, I know it's Jiang Hang."

He got on top of the boat while saying this.

Only then did the other side react and punch towards Jiang Xiu. China had strict control over firearms, and the police would blockade the entire area after a murder using a gun. He had concealed the sniper rifle in the water so he could run away easily and didn't have a gun on him. Thus, he could only combat Jiang Xiu.

But…

"AAARRRGGHH!"

A mournful scream spread across the lake's surface. The arm with which he had punched towards Jiang Xiu was broken.

"ARRRRGGH!"

His other arm was broken as well.

"ARRRGGHHH!"

The same was done to his legs.

In a blink, all his limbs were broken by Jiang Xiu. He was paralyzed on the speedboat, wailing towards the sky while trembling.

"Where is Jiang Hang?"

He quivered, "I don't know. We only make contact through the cell phone. He sends money to me, and I deal with the matter, so there's no need for us to meet… I'm telling the truth… really…"

"Will you testify in court?"

The other side turned silent.

"If you aren't willing, I'll dump you in the lake. Your limbs are broken right now. If you are able to survive, I'll release you."

"NOOOO!" He screamed in alarm. How could anyone whose limbs were broken survive in water? Even just a tiny moment gave him extreme pain. He would no doubt die if he were thrown into the water. "I'm willing to testify in court."

Jiang Xiu smiled at him, "I really want to see whether your Jiang family will save Jiang Xiu when he goes to jail for ordering an assassination."

The police had quickly appeared at the scene due to the shooting.

The authorities felt their blood run cold when they saw the assassin's state. The person who did this to him was too ruthless, but this was something this man deserved, so they didn't feel any pity.

The assassin admitted that he was hired to assassinate the target. The police recovered the sniper rifle from the water, and the case was evident as it still had the assassin's fingerprints.

Jiang Hang was still in his villa right now. He was pacing all around in worry. The assassin's call ended mid-way and was switched off when he called the number again. He didn't know the circumstances right now.

Ding-Dong!

The doorbell echoed at this time. The servant went to open the door and quickly came running back after a while, "Mr. Jiang, there are two policemen here to meet you."

"The police?"

Jiang Hang's expression changed. It seemed like the matter had blown up, but he smiled coldly. It didn't matter even if it had blown up as these policemen wouldn't dare to move against him, "Make them wait downstairs for me!"

Just as he said this, the two policemen came inside with grim expressions on their face. One of them was a 30-year-old youth. He took out the arrest order, "Jiang Hang, you are suspected of ordering an assassination on the Amidst Heaven Group's Director, Lady Wang Xintong. You are requested to accept arrest according to the law."

Jiang Hang didn't have the slightest amount of worry on his face, "Do you know who I am?"

"To think you've come to grab me at my home. You must be tired of living, right?"

The officer said, "Don't show off to us. No matter who you are, with this arrest order, we will grab you even if you were the Emperor himself. Shackle him for me."

The youth went forward.

"You dare?!"

The youth pressed Jiang Hang to the floor and handcuffed him.

Jiang Hang struggled yet he didn't panic at all, he was only angry, "You'll face the consequences for arresting me." However, in the end, he didn't yell out the line 'My father is Li Gang.'

After coming down, he saw there were two fully armed officers outside. If he had tried to escape, they would have captured him with force. However, there were many media vans on the side.

When Jiang Hang was brought outside, countless reporters dashed towards him with cameras. The scene was full of flashes from them.

"Mr. Jiang Hang, what problem did you have with Amidst Heaven Group's Lady Wang Xintong? Why did you try to get her assassinated?"

"Do you do things like this frequently?"

"How much does it cost to order an assassination?"

This news had quickly reached the Jiang family.

"Absolutely disgraceful!"
