The legendary 500 million worth assassination mission was actually completed by him so easily!
One must admit that the Blood Demon was truly quite a formidable assassin. Not only was his skills good, but he also had the calmness of mind to match his skills.
One he twisted and broke Hong Dali's neck, Blood Demon didn't hesitate and directly kept his stuff, intending to immediately leave the scene. After all, accidents might happen anytime. The longer he stayed, the higher the possibility of him being discovered. If that happened, it wouldn't be so easy for him to leave.
His plan was flawless and he didn't commit any mistakes. But the problem was that his target was Hong Dali, so a big issue occurred...
Because, Hong Dali just stood there like that and didn't fell down or do anything else, but just asked, "You want to kill me?"
Could you imagine someone whose head turned about 180 degrees and just stood there dumbly and asked you "You want to kill me?", such a horrifying scene like this?
Being a super-assassin with over-the-top fighting capability, Blood Demon was also quite a calm and composed person. But when he saw such a scene, he couldn't keep his composure anymore—he wanted to shout out loudly, but the consequences of that would be too grave for him.
Therefore, he made a very accurate choice. Without another word, his whole body gave out popping sounds as he turned around and punched Hong Dali's body with his fist!
This punch packed a ton. If it landed on a sandbag, it would definitely burst without any problem.
However, time time, it was of no avail. The eeriest thing happened again—his whole arm punched two feet into Hong Dali's body and even caused his chest to protrude out.
But the problem was, Hong Dali was still standing there smiling with his head tilted and looking at him, and had no other reactions.
Blood Demon directly kneed down."What... What kind of thing are you!?"
"I am Hong Dali!" Hong Dali's head turned back in front with a "phat" sound. After drawing back his hand, the hand that Blood Demon used to punch immediately bounced back. It was like nothing had happened to Hong Dali. He leisurely pulled up his pants, turned around, and asked Blood Demon again, "Are you here to kill me?"
To be honest, Blood Demon intended to just directly run away now.
Although he did indeed killed quite a lot of people before, he had never seen someone so inhuman like Hong Dali!
His neck couldn't be broken, and nothing happened to him even though a hole got punched into his chest. Blood Demon really wanted to try killing Hong Dali again, but he didn't have the courage anymore. The reason that he didn't run was that Hong Dali didn't seem to be angry at all, which showed that there was still some room for communication between them.
Therefore, Blood Demon directly nodded and said, "Yes, you guessed correctly." However, he immediately added, "But I didn't manage to kill you, so my mission has failed."
"That's very normal." Hong Dali still grinned like a harmless person."Do you have some time? Do you want to have a cup of tea together?"
"You? Inviting me for a cup of tea?" Blood Demon was stunned."Did I hear correctly?"
"Of course." Hong Dali chicly shrugged and said, "If I wanted to capture you, I only have to shout out and the entire area two kilometers around us will be locked down. However, I don't intend to do that. So, how about a cup of tea?"
"OK!" Blood Demon was quite practical too. In actual fact, he was also quite curious about what Hong Dali's intention was."Where?"
"There's quite a lot of empty rooms here, there's a meeting room for guests too." Hong Dali directly led the way in front.
After the two of them exited from the toilet, on the way out, the others were all surprised by how Hong Dali entered alone and came out with another person. Li Yang came up to check on the situation and curiously asked, "Young Master, this is..."
"Oh, an assassin who wanted to kill me but didn't succeed." Hong Dali asked Li Yang, "Which room is empty now, I want to chat with him.
Li Yang broke out in cold sweat. This Young Master was really amazing. In his mouth, an assassin who wanted to kill him was like an old friend who came to visit him.
However, it wasn't that strange anymore once he thought about it. This Young Master fell into a hole that was more than 100 meters deep and didn't even have a scratch, it was normal that the assassin failed to kill him. Therefore, Li Yang directly brought Hong Dali into an empty meeting room, smiled, and said, "Then, Young Master, have a chat with him first, I will guard the door for you!"
"Yup, OK." Hong Dali entered the room first and Blood Demon followed behind with his head full of sweat—this Hong Dali was really amazing, he directly told his subordinate that he was an assassin and the subordinate actually didn't mind at all...
The two of them sat down.
"What do you want to drink? Tea? Coffee? Milk?" Although Hong Dali asked this, he himself just casually opened a can of Might Beverage and had a mouthful after sprawling on the sofa. He said, "You can drink whatever you want to, there's no need to be polite."
Having nothing to lose anymore, Blood Demon behaved quite casually, made himself a cup of coffee, and sat down. Then, he asked, "You really don't intend to kill me?"
"Why would I kill you?" Hong Dali felt strange and asked, "Don't you know who I am?"
"Who you are?" This time, it was Blood Demon's turn to be curious."You are Hong Weiguo's only son, aren't you? Using words from your Nation, you are the single seed of your family."
"I am a prodigal! A prodigal!" Hong Dali was angered by him and jumped about on his feet."Since you intended to kill me, shouldn't you know of this important information!?"
Blood Demon almost got choked to death by Hong Dali's words. Dumbfounded, he said, "There's actually someone who calls himself a prodigal?"
"Of course, this is a very important piece of information." Hong Dali humphed and said, "What do you think a prodigal will do when you failed in killing him and he invited you into an empty meeting room? What do you think will happen next?"
"What will happen next..." Blood Demon touched his chin."You will think of a way to control me?"
"Looks like you are not as clever as I thought..." Hong Dali looked like he was a little disappointed. He listlessly said, "The next thing is obviously to ask you who sent you here and ask you how much the reward is for killing me! That's the normal procedure!"
Blood Demon: "..."
Was the mindset of prodigals so unique nowadays? Did he even knew what an assassination was!
Although this was what he thought, Blood Demon still shrugged and said, "To be honest, I really want to tell you, but the problem is I can't say."
"Your superior has a hold on you?" Hong Dali asked, "They have your family as a hostage?"
"Not really, I don't have any family or kin." Blood Demon shook his head."This is just professionalism."
"What use does that have." Hong Dali twitched his lips."Boring. Actually, I just want to know. How much am I worth? How much did the hirer offer?"
"500 million." There wasn't a need to hide this, so Blood Demon chose to spoke the truth.
"What the heck! 500 million! He actually only offered 500 million!" Hong Dali jumped angrily."Am I only worth so much!?"
Blood Demon: "..."
What the heck, 500 million is already a lot, OK? Out of all my years of work, except last time when someone wanted to kill the telecom tycoon Lu Yingda from Heavenly State, only then did that person offer 500 million! This time, to assassinate a prodigal, 500 million is already a lot—damn it, if I knew you were inhuman and wouldn't die even when your head is turned 180 degrees, I wouldn't have come even if the offer was five billion!
The room instantly went into an eerie silence.
Luckily, just very quickly later, Hong Dali said, "OK, since I already know how much the offer is now, then you should know what I am going to do next, right?"
*Who the heck will know what you are going to do next! *Blood Demon cautiously said, "Capture me?"
"You are even more stupid than I imagined!" Hong Dali almost went crazy and said, "I am a prodigal! A prodigal! Don't you understand what this word represents? Someone offered 500 million to buy my head, then I definitely must offer double the price to buy his head! I offer you a billion. Kill whoever hired you to kill me, understand!?"
Blood Demon was totally astonished.
*Someone offered 500 million to buy your head and so you want to spend a billion to buy his head in return!? *Blood Demon finally really understood what being a prodigal really meant. This was definitely literally using the money to crash someone to death!
To be honest, Blood Demon was tempted.
A billion! That's definitely not a small amount. The crucial thing is that I can take this money for myself! If I really succeed, not only this lifetime, even for my next few lifetimes I will not have to do any work at all and just enjoy life. Maybe, just maybe, if I really agree to this prodigal in front of me, for the next half of my life, I might really be able to live a normal life, get married and have a child, not needing to live in fear every day anymore.
He had thought of this before too, but the problem was that there was no hope in it. As a member of Sand Eagle, unless he died, he would forever be bound to the organization. But if Hong Dali could help him...
"How are you going to help me?" Blood Demon directly asked, "The consequences of betraying the organization is very serious."
"That's easy." Hong Dali sniffled."I will find someone to fake a fire disaster and put your name into the death list."
"Will that work?" Blood Demon asked.
"Of course it will, that's just a small issue." Hong Dali grinned and asked, "How about it?"
"OK! Then, from now on, I shall listen to you!"
..."Yup, he is." Hong Dali laughed, nodded, and said, "His hirer only offered 500 million and wants my head, how can that do!"
Li Yang fiercely gritted his teeth."Then, Young Master, shall we directly go kill this hirer? He actually dared to kill you, we mustn't tolerate this!" This fellow's attributes had all exceeded the charts now, he was extremely confident now.
However, Hong Dali said, "No need, I offered a billion to buy the head of the guy who wants my head. The assassin has agreed."
Li Yang: "..."
He was dazed for a while before asking, "Young Master, will this guy be able to do it?"
"There shouldn't be a problem." Hong Dali thought for a while and said, "He camped for me in the toilet; he has patience. When he made his move, he did it without any hesitation and delay, and wasn't an idiot and wasted time talking to me first. Once he landed the killing strike, he immediately tried to leave. Overall speaking, these few points are all not bad."
Lastly, he concluded: "A billion yuan to buy a world-class top assassin, that's not bad. Quite worth it..."
