I Have A Martial Dao World

Chapter 74: 74. Assassination

In Pang's Martial Arts School, a banquet was being held.

Snake Master raised his cup in tribute, "Master Pang has his hand over most of the brothels in Yunzhou, and with opium, that really is like adding wings to a tiger! Congratulations to you in advance."

Master Pang drained his cup and showed it was empty, saying, "Mutual benefit, let our two families prosper together."

Then, he turned to his three sons and spoke, "You lot haven't come to offer a toast yet! This is the Hailong Gang's external affairs hall master! A true hero!"

The three of them hurriedly offered toasts. They were also very happy, as the opium business was incredibly lucrative, pairing very well with their own brothels!

They could also use opium to subdue those 'untamed horses' who were disobedient, truly a business with nothing but profit!

Snake Master clinked glasses with each of them, praising, "Master Pang's skill in teaching disciples is really something! Each one of your sons has reached the Organ Refining stage, admirable indeed!"

"Still, they can't compare to the Hailong Gang's four dragons, eh? Is leader Wu in seclusion again?"

"The leader's power will surely increase significantly with hard training in seclusion."

After exchanging a few customary pleasantries, Master Pang brought up the topic he was most interested in, "Snake Master, if this matter succeeds, I'd also ask you to put in some good words for me with Baron William."

"Naturally, an untouched maiden skilled in martial arts is highly sought after these days, especially one from the Liao Family at the Marrow-Cleansing Realm. Baron William might even bestow you the initial privilege if he's pleased enough."

Master Pang was thrilled, "That would be great! I ask for nothing else, just the simplest transformation to live a few more years!"

Snake Master listened to the old man's endless talk, sneering inside. Even I can't possibly receive such favors, and here you are daydreaming. These martial artists with their life's span nearing an end always love to reach for the impossible.

~~~~~~~~

After a few cups of liquor, the atmosphere became even more spirited.

Master Pang, in high spirits, inquired, "I've heard that becoming a vampire... ah, spit, becoming one of the blood clan can let you live for 800 years..."

But before he could finish, his shoulder suddenly burst open, "pfft," and his entire arm vanished up to the shoulder!

Everyone's color changed drastically; they quickly stood up, but before they could react, another bullet came flying.

The awful kinetic energy of 18,000 joules caused Master Pang's eldest son to 'snap' into pieces, covering everyone with a mix of warm, sticky and soft fluids.

Master Pang clutched his severed arm and rotated the muscle to stop the bleeding, shouting at the same time, "What the hell is that! What in the world is going on?"

No one could answer that question, as Lu Yao was 2 kilometers away, equipped with a suppressor, killing without a sound.

The next second, the sound of breaking air attacked again!

But even though Master Pang sensed it beforehand, he could only manage to swerve his body slightly as one of his legs was already blown into a bloody mist!

The initial velocity of a Barrett bullet is 1 kilometer per second; to dodge it, a martial artist would need a neural reaction speed of 3 milliseconds, ten times faster than a cat!

~~~~~~

Lu Yao watched everything clearly through the high-powered scope and couldn't help but feel relieved, "Truly relieving!"

The sisters had equally clear views through their military binoculars. As they saw Master Pang missing an arm and a leg, crawling around in a mess, the two girls exclaimed again and again:

"So powerful! One shot can tear a person apart!"

"And to be so accurate from such a distance!"

Liao Qe's eyes gleamed as she shook Lu Yao's arm, "Let me try! I've long found those bastards who force good people into prostitution repulsive!"

Lu Yao stepped aside with a smile.

Liao Qe lay on the ground and took aim through the sniper scope professionally, while Lu Yao advised from the side:

"Bullets are affected by the wind. Pay attention to the flags in front of the nearby shops to gauge the wind direction and adjust your shooting angle accordingly." Find exclusive stories on m_v l|e-NovelFire.net

Holding her breath, Liao Qe pulled the trigger, and with a muffled sound, a bullet casing the size of an index finger ejected from the side of the gun.

The Barrett is semi-automatic, no need to operate the bolt.

The bullet accurately blew off the head of Master Pang's third son, 2 kilometers away. The man's head literally disappeared!

Lu Yao expressed his surprise, "So accurate! Beginners' luck is always the best."

"Nonsense, I took that shot seriously! That wasn't hard at all!"

While arguing, Liao Qe took aim and fired another shot.

~~~~~~~

At this moment, all the survivors were petrified, all taking cover behind the walls.

Just as Master Pang's youngest son, who had been hiding, caught his breath, the wall he was sheltering behind suddenly burst open with a huge hole!

Numerous fragments flew out like shotgun pellets, riddling him with holes. His blood gushed out, pooling into a small lake as his head lolled, lifeless.

Lu Yao now believed that Liao Qe truly had a gift and raised his thumb in praise, "Impressive!"

Liao Qe was beaming with pride, her eyes curving into smiles.

Liao Ya looked on with interest for a long while and, patting her sister's round bottom, said, "You've had your fun for long enough, it's my turn now~"

Liao Qe reluctantly made way for her.

~~~~~~~

After Liao Ya took over, the enemies were all well-hidden.

At this time, Wang Yuan, the Military Preparedness Administrative Commissioner, disheveled, walked out from a guest room upon hearing the commotion outside, wanting to figure out what was happening, while a whimpering young lady was faintly visible on the bed inside the room.

This man had repeatedly caused trouble, and Liao Ya immediately took aim at him.

Lu Yao cautioned, "The target is moving forward, you need to calculate the lead based on his speed."

"I know! The bullet will take approximately two breaths to travel there..."

Without further ado, Liao Ya's spring onion-like fair fingers squeezed the trigger, absorbing all the recoil, her fragrant shoulders and shapely hips motionless.

The young Military Preparedness Administrative Commissioner was struck in the neck, and with a puff of blood mist, his puzzled face spun in the air several times before landing on the ground.

Liao Ya looked at Lu Yao with pride, seemingly waiting for praise.

"Beautiful!" Lu Yao didn't hold back on the compliments, secretly admiring that martial artist women were indeed different from ordinary people.

They not only enjoyed firearms, but their extraordinary physical attributes naturally endowed them with high marksmanship skills.

~~~~~~~

Snake Master, having worked for the foreigners, had seen many Western things; judging by the whistling of bullets, he deduced the attackers were using an unknown firearm.

He immediately hit the deck, making sure his entire body was hidden behind the wall.

At that point, Master Pang, missing an arm and a leg, valiantly dragged himself forward a few inches with a single arm, but his blood loss was too great, reaching its limit. He pleaded to Snake Master, "Save me!!!!!"

His expression and voice were filled with a fervent desire to live, but it was all in vain.

Snake Master turned a blind eye, deaf ear, his mind racing— "I can't keep hiding! The attacker's firearm has immense power; I must find a way to save myself!"

He took a deep breath, his arms suddenly bulking up significantly, and slammed them down on the ground!

With a loud bang, floor tiles, debris, pieces of tables, and chairs were sent flying into the air.

Snake Master seized the opportunity to dash out! He moved erratically as he attempted to flee.

The most ruthless part was that halfway through his escape, he casually flicked his foot, sending the half-dead Master Pang flying into the open to "cushion" his escape!

In Master Pang's desperate cries, a .50 caliber bullet punched a 30-centimeter-wide hole in his chest!

~~~~~~~~

A segment of spine drenched in blood flew past "Snake Master," but he was too preoccupied to care, zigzagging and running for his life in every possible direction.

Liao Ya fired twice in quick succession, but even after emptying the magazine, she failed to hit the target. After all, as a novice too far away, she couldn't hit an irregularly moving target, and she said anxiously:

"This man is the Head of the Hailong Gang's External Affairs Hall; we can't let him escape!"

Lu Yao said with a smile, "Let me do it."

He calmly reloaded the Barrett with a new magazine, fully focusing as he took aim at Snake Master, who was maneuvering like a snake.

Everything in his view slowed down to half speed. His senses processed the external information rapidly, judging wind direction, distance, bullet velocity, and the target's trajectory.

Lu Yao aimed at the empty space ahead of Snake Master and pulled the trigger; a muffled sound followed as the huge casing was ejected.

2 kilometers away, Snake Master's head precisely caught a .50 caliber bullet, his neck and everything above turning into a cloud of crimson mist.

"Junior Brother is remarkable!"

"Lu Yao is awesome!"
