King of Assassins

Li Feihong wasn’t in the mood to deal with a few girls either; she said to Gao Xuan, "What exactly are you thinking?"

Gao Xuan slowly put down the cards in his hand, "I was about to win. Friend, you’re really killing the mood here."

"You’re really not afraid of dying, huh."

Li Feihong didn’t know what to say; she genuinely couldn’t stand Gao Xuan’s leisurely demeanor.

She couldn’t help but ask, "How many heads do you have, exactly?"

Gao Xuan picked up a small mirror nearby and looked at it, "Looks like just one head."

Li Feihong was almost amused to the point of laughing, but she then turned serious, "That’s not funny at all. When the Old Demon arrives, let’s see if you’ll still be laughing!"

"Don’t get excited, I understand your good intentions."

Gao Xuan said, "It’s just that I have no grudge with this guy, why would he want to trouble me?"

"Purple Rose doesn’t act logically. You’re not even qualified to reason with them."

Li Feihong said seriously, "The Old Demon is at least a Level 5 modified person, much stronger than Su Fei. His brothers are also Level 5, and the boss, Purple, is a Level 7 modified person. They’re top-level combatants in Wei’an City!"

"Level 7 is considered top-level?"

Gao Xuan chuckled, "That top-level seems a bit shabby."

"You know nothing."

Li Feihong was a bit riled up; Gao Xuan actually looked down on Level 7 modified people!

"Modified people are divided into ten levels, but how big is Wei’an City? Level 7 is already a top expert. Level 9, Level 10, such strong figures are high-ranking military officials or part of the power hierarchy at the core; there’s no way they’d be here mingling with gangs..."

Level 10 modified people, Levels 1 to 7 are considered individual combat power. Level 8 modified people, already equivalent to a small combat team.

Level 9 modified people are said to easily crush a team composed of ten Level 8 modified people. Level 10 modified people, supposedly have destructive power more terrifying than a regular army.

Level 8 modified people can occasionally be seen in civilian life. Level 9 and Level 10 modified people hold immense power. Generally, there’s no chance they’d be mingling with gangs for a living.

Wei’an City is not that big; Level 7 modified people are already at the top. Purple, though a woman, is notorious for her fighting spirit.

Li Feihong was really anxious; she warned Gao Xuan at great risk, yet he still appeared ungrateful.

"Calm down."

Gao Xuan said, "I get it, Purple Rose is somewhat tricky to deal with. Alright, I’ll go to change my clothes."

In Gao Xuan’s luxurious room, there was naturally no need to wear the bulletproof suit. But now that there’s some trouble, it’s better to put it on.

Back in the room, Gao Xuan changed into the suit, checked his weapons and the Flying Saber equipment.

He wasn’t nervous; these small fry could be dealt with easily. Purple Rose, however, was a major organization. The crucial thing is that bullets don’t have eyes. If he really was unlucky enough to catch a stray bullet, that would be unfortunate.

The Nine-Revolutions Divine Cicada is currently too advanced. This little body simply cannot activate the Nine-Revolutions Divine Cicada, nor provide any early warning.

His main body’s Divine Techniques and Power couldn’t be brought here. All he could rely on was a bit of weak Extraordinary Power from the Celestial Dragon Eye, and the body of the Little Dog.

During this period, Gao Xuan used the Celestial Dragon Eye to reinforce the Little Dog’s body once more.

In comparison to the world’s status, the twice-reinforced Little Dog body should be roughly equivalent to Level 7 modified.

Of course, it’s ultimately flesh and blood. The Little Dog’s body couldn’t hold a candle to the mechanical body.

To be safe, Gao Xuan still wore the bulletproof suit. With this buffer against damage, even if accidentally hit by a stray bullet, it wouldn’t be a problem.

When Gao Xuan came out, only Li Feihong was left in the room; the three maids were already gone.

Gao Xuan was a bit puzzled, "Where did they go?"

"Old Demon is exceedingly lecherous and cruel. If he saw three beauties, trouble would surely arise."

Li Feihong said seriously, "I sent them away to avoid trouble."

Gao Xuan lazily sat in a chair and casually fiddled with the mahjong tiles in his hand while expressing some displeasure, "Though I haven’t seen this guy yet, I’m already kind of annoyed by him."

Li Feihong glared at Gao Xuan, "If that’s how you feel, don’t meet with him. Run far away while you can."

"Hahaha, you should be telling him that..." Gao Xuan laughed heartily, appearing not to care about the Old Demon at all.

Li Feihong was also at a loss; she almost hoped for Gao Xuan to fall into misfortune so he’d learn a lesson. But she found it hard to bear.

As she hesitated whether to persuade him, the door was knocked.

"Mr. Gao, an honored guest is visiting."

A slickly dressed, greasy middle-aged man walked in, smiling amiably though his eyes carried a sly look.

"Who are you?" Gao Xuan hadn’t seen this guy before and knew he was from the hotel as soon as he barged in.

But barging in like this was too rude and out of order.

The greasy middle-aged man smiled obsequiously and slightly bowed, "I am the hotel manager Wang Song."

He reminded Gao Xuan, "Mr. Qi is arriving soon; Mr. Gao should go and greet him at the elevator."

Gao Xuan didn’t respond to this person; he said to Li Feihong, "That’s all, it’s not your problem, you should leave."

Li Feihong frowned displeased and stood with a stubborn neck as if she hadn’t heard anything.

The ignored Manager Wang chuckled awkwardly and didn’t say anymore. However, he had already started holding a grudge against Gao Xuan.

"This kid really doesn’t know what’s good for him..."

Manager Wang ran to the elevator to wait. Soon, the Old Demon came up with Li Zhennan and others. Manager Wang stooped low to greet them with a fawning smile, "Mr. Qi, I’ve already informed Gao Xuan, but he doesn’t understand manners, failing to come out and greet you..."
