When Xia Tian burst into the shadowy booth, the first thing he did was check for surveillance cameras. Fortunately, this KTV had almost no cameras installed, including in the corridors; only the main hall at the bottom had a camera.
This was to accommodate those who did not want to expose their identities and leave any traces.
Shadow immediately recognized Xia Tian. In that bar, he had already memorized the appearances of Xia Tian and Lin Bingbing. He originally thought he had shaken off Xia Tian, but unexpectedly, he was still caught up.
"Who are you? This is a law-abiding society. What do you want?" Shadow did not want to expose his identity.
"I just want to kill you." Xia Tian did not want to waste time. He aimed to take down Shadow as quickly as possible. As he spoke, his Cloudy Immortal Steps were already at their peak, instantly bringing him to Shadow's side.
"Turns out you're an expert." Shadow knew it was bad the moment Xia Tian made his move. He did not expect Xia Tian's skills to be so good.
It was already too late to counterattack. He had lost the initiative and hurriedly rolled on the ground to dodge Xia Tian's strike. At that moment, he seemed to see a pair of demonic eyes.
Xia Tian was quick, his hands forming points and rapidly striking Shadow's body. With one successful hit, Shadow completely lost his ability to resist.
The speed of his actions was extremely fast. In a blink, Xia Tian had already struck thirty-six acupoints on Shadow's body. Then, with a firm twist of his hands, he snapped Shadow's head, marking his first kill.
There was no feeling of nausea or any discomfort, because he knew this person had to be eliminated. Only by killing him could he protect the people he wanted to protect.
"It seems my strength has increased a lot over the past two days." Xia Tian nodded in satisfaction. Shadow's strength was not much different from that of the people who had been tracking him. At the time, dealing with that person had been quite difficult, but now dealing with Shadow was so simple.
In fact, this did not mean that Shadow's strength was weak. He was a killer, and all his training was focused on assassination. His greatest skill was making people die quietly, not engaging in direct confrontation.
That was why he was so easily taken down by Xia Tian.
After disposing of Shadow, Xia Tian turned his attention to the package on the sofa.
"This should contain weapons. Let me see what it is." Xia Tian looked at the package on the sofa. Shadow's people were very cautious. No matter which city they went to, they would first transport their weapons, then deliver them to a transit point, which was that bar, and finally retrieve them.
If they needed items like handguns, explosives, or sniper rifles, it would be much more complicated.
So, the people of Sand usually avoided using guns.
When Xia Tian opened the package, he saw a dagger with a green handle, inscribed with the words "Qingyun." The blade was incredibly sharp, capable of cutting hair with a breath.
"Good stuff, I'll take it." Xia Tian hid the dagger in his shoe and covered it with his pants.
He then laid Shadow flat on the sofa, took the package in his hands, and left the room, throwing the package into a nearby trash bin.
When Xia Tian walked out of the KTV, he happened to run into Lin Bingbing.
"Aunt Ye told us to leave quickly to avoid exposure."
"Okay." Xia Tian nodded.
"Thank you so much today. I'll definitely pay you back the thousand yuan next time." Lin Bingbing was very happy because she had truly passed the test. From now on, she would be part of the Special Operations Department.
"Congratulations." Xia Tian bid farewell to Lin Bingbing and took out his phone.
"It's Xia Tian." Xia Tian called Zeng Rou.
"Xia Tian." Zeng Rou's excited voice came from the other end of the line. She had not been sleeping well these past few days. Since leaving Xia Tian, her mind was filled with thoughts of him. She felt the most comfortable sleeping in his embrace.
"Um, you're in danger. Someone is trying to take you down. I just dealt with a killer who was planning to assassinate you."
"Killer? Where are you? Should I come pick you up?" Zeng Rou asked.
"Alright, I'll wait for you at the intersection of the bar district." Xia Tian paused for a moment and then agreed.
"I'll be there right away." Zeng Rou excitedly ran down the stairs.
Standing at the intersection of the bar district, Xia Tian felt quite bored and looked around at the people. They were of all sorts, most of them there for entertainment, but some were engaged in illegal activities.
Drugs were rampant here. Many small-time thugs roamed the bars and KTVs, selling drugs.
Although Xia Tian could report them to the police, he did not do so. Capturing these people would be useless; they were just small fry. Even if they were caught, a new batch would appear. To root out the drug trade here, he needed to find the source of the evil.
Fights were a common occurrence in this area. At that moment, a few small-time thugs were beating up a young man. The young man, kicked to the ground, protected his head while the thugs continued to kick him.
After enduring for a while, the young man suddenly stood up and bit one of the thugs' ears.
"Ahh!" A scream of pain came from the thug's mouth, and the young man's mouth was full of blood.
"Let go, let go quickly." The other thugs hurriedly hit the young man.
Blood splattered on the ground, scattering and disappearing from sight, but the young man did not let go.
"Brave, very brave." This was Xia Tian's impression of the young man.
Xia Tian walked up to the thugs and, with one kick each, sent them flying. The young man, meanwhile, collapsed on the ground, breathing heavily.
"Can you stand up on your own?" Xia Tian asked the young man.
"Hmph." The young man grunted, enduring the intense pain and struggling to stand up.
"Why did you fight with these people?" Xia Tian asked again.
"They took my girlfriend." The young man said fiercely.
"Was your girlfriend willing to go with them?" Xia Tian continued.
"Yes." The young man did not explain further.
"Very well. If you don't want to be bullied, you need to be stronger than others. If you want your woman to stay with you, you need to have the means to keep her." Xia Tian turned around.
Thud!
The young man directly knelt behind Xia Tian: "Take me as your disciple. I know you're very strong."
"Are you prepared to die?" Xia Tian turned to look at the young man.
"I have no father or mother. I've never been afraid of death." The young man said with determination.
"What's your name?" Xia Tian asked.
"Gao Fei." The young man answered.
"Alright, call this phone number and tell the owner that Xia Tian sent you. You can call him Old Xu." Xia Tian said and then turned to leave.
