The King of Urban Mercenaries

"What are you laughing at, Lin Fei?" Little Black asked.

Lin Fei looked at Jiang Ming and said, "Jiang Ming, do you want revenge?"

Jiang Ming nodded, "Of course I want to! But..."

"Are you still worried about your strength?" Lin Fei asked.

Jiang Ming nodded, "Besides the issue of strength, I’m not afraid of anything else!"

"But what is there to fear about strength? Those four guys earlier were the guards by the Fourth Prince’s side, weren’t they? They’re all dead. What are you afraid of? Are you afraid of dying?" Lin Fei smiled, looking at Jiang Ming.

Jiang Ming frowned, "Afraid of dying? If I was afraid of dying, I wouldn’t have gone to kill that bastard Fourth Prince in the first place! I’m not afraid of dying!" Jiang Ming said.

Lin Fei clapped his hands together, "Very good, as long as you’re not afraid of dying, then it’s easy. I have a plan that can let you kill him, but I can’t guarantee you’ll be able to leave alive afterward."

Hearing Lin Fei’s words, Jiang Ming was silent for a moment, then nodded heavily and said, "As long as I can kill the Fourth Prince, I’m willing to give it a try! Even if it costs my life!"

Lin Fei nodded with satisfaction, "In that case, come with me. Let’s go kill that Fourth Prince and let him understand what retribution means!"

Jiang Ming nodded heavily. As long as he could get revenge, he was satisfied. Perhaps at first, it was out of a sense of justice and passion, but undeniably, until now, his original intention had not changed in the slightest, and had even grown stronger.

Lin Fei and Jiang Ming returned to the Imperial City once more. But now the entire city was talking about the Black Dragon, and Lin Fei knew he couldn’t reveal his identity, otherwise it would bring trouble to Gai Xiaolian in Ancient Meng City, so he stopped at the city’s edge.

"I’ll wait for you outside. If you can make it out alive, I’ll save you, and we can leave here together. If you can’t make it out, then you’ll just have to die in there, understood?" Lin Fei reminded Jiang Ming.

He didn’t plan on going in, and at the same time, he gave Jiang Ming a piece of the Illusion Fruit, allowing Jiang Ming to change his appearance.

Jiang Ming nodded, "I agree! But what should I do?"

Lin Fei smiled, "Take this. It’s the Token of those guards. With this, you should be able to get close to the Fourth Prince. Just say they’re severely injured, and the Fourth Prince will believe you. After all, he can’t believe all four guards have been killed."

"Then what?"

This was the most important point. What next?

"Then? Do I really need to tell you? Of course, kill the Fourth Prince. Otherwise, what are we doing all this for? You must kill him when he’s unsuspecting and has no doubts about you! Only then will you have a chance to escape. Otherwise, once he realizes, you will have no chance," Lin Fei said.

Jiang Ming nodded, then said, "Thank you! If I have the chance, I will definitely repay you!"

Lin Fei smiled, "It’s also for myself. Otherwise, I wouldn’t bother. That Fourth Prince must die."

Jiang Ming nodded, but he was still very grateful to Lin Fei. After all, Lin Fei gave him the opportunity; otherwise, he probably wouldn’t have any chance at all.

At this time, Lin Fei watched Jiang Ming change his appearance again as he walked into the Imperial City. He smiled and walked in another direction of the city.

"What do you plan to do?" Little Black asked.

"What do you think?" Lin Fei smiled.

"You’re not planning to meddle, are you? I advise you not to get involved; this has already drawn the attention of the royal family, and we might not be able to escape when the time comes," Little Black said.

Hearing this, Lin Fei looked at Little Black in surprise and said, "Are you saying there are people in the royal family who are stronger than you?"

"That can’t be denied; it’s very possible. After all, the royal family is so large, and the Fourth Prince’s guards were already so strong, so you’d better not play with fire. Let’s just wait for that kid to return. His strength is not bad, and barring any accidents, he should make it back alive," Little Black said.

Lin Fei nodded his head, "You said it, barring any accidents, he’ll make it back alive, but who can guarantee that there won’t be any accidents?"

"Why don’t you listen to advice?" Little Black was really speechless.

"Some things have to be foolproof. I don’t have that much time, so let’s solve this guy and eliminate the hidden danger. At the very least, he shouldn’t bother Gai Xiaolian anymore; otherwise, I’d be guilty," Lin Fei was most worried about this.

He didn’t know when the Fourth Prince would suddenly think of Gai Xiaolian and might cause trouble for her, so he took great pains to eliminate the Fourth Prince’s guards and then let Jiang Ming go to assassinate the Fourth Prince.

But he was not at ease. He didn’t know what the final outcome would be. He felt things weren’t as simple as he thought. This Fourth Prince was always so devious, and Lin Fei couldn’t believe there was no defense.

"Alright, so how do we go? Your current identity may not get you in," Little Black asked.

"In that case, I’ll use my true appearance."

Lin Fei said, then washed off the Illusion Fruit’s effect and dabbed some important parts, molding his face with dirt to make it appear more three-dimensional. This made him look like a different person altogether. The wonders of make-up from the Lower Realm couldn’t be denied; in certain ways, it was incredibly effective.

Lin Fei, appearing as a different person, entered the city without anyone suspecting his identity, as his face was entirely different from the person who fled earlier.

At this time, Lin Fei had arrived at the place where the Fourth Prince lived. He didn’t know what was going on. He came to a corner, looked around to ensure no one was there, and suddenly leaped into the Fourth Prince’s courtyard.

Meanwhile, the Fourth Prince heard a report from the guards, saying his four guards seemed to have a problem and were severely injured and couldn’t return?

Someone had been asked to explain everything, suggesting he should bring troops to rescue?

The Fourth Prince immediately ordered to have the person brought in, but there was a slight cold smile on his lips because he already sensed this was a plot.

"Where do you come from? You say my guards are severely injured? Do you have any proof?"

The Fourth Prince looked at the thin face in front of him and said, "Speak, I’m listening, but if you’re lying, don’t blame me for being impolite."

Jiang Ming nodded, "Here’s the situation, Fourth Prince, they told me..." Jiang Ming provided a well-crafted excuse, even telling the truth that the Black Dragon injured them and they were healing in the forest.

However, at this moment, the Fourth Prince suddenly slapped the table and said coldly, "Lies!"
