"Do you really think you can fool everyone but me? Let me just say a few things. Not killing Wei Damin was a mistake, and now Wei Damin is still alive. He keeps shouting about greenhouses and fish ponds, which may mean nothing to others, but I know exactly what he's referring to."

"Wei Damin had someone poison your ornamental fish breeding ground and set fire to your greenhouse. The pen stabbed into Wei Damin's leg – that's your method of seeking revenge against Wei Damin. And that time in Capital City, when the female reporter was murdered, you were in Capital City. I called to ask you about it, and you lied, saying you were in Provincial City."

"I specifically asked you about the weather in Provincial City, and you said there was a bit of smog. You probably didn't realize it was raining in Provincial City that day. Do you need me to go on?"

Jiang Hao's deductive skills were too strong, which made Ling Zhenfei feel a bit ridiculous. Everything was going so smoothly, and the Imperial Palace Club was about to be taken down in no more than two days. Who would have thought he'd get stabbed in the back by one of his own.

"Well done, Jiang Hao. You're really something, aren't you? I don't blame you; I only blame myself for being blind enough to trust someone like you."

"What are you planning to do, kill me?" Ling Zhenfei stopped paying attention to Jiang Hao and turned to ask Lei Tian instead. He knew that Lei Tian's words carried the most weight here.

Hearing Ling Zhenfei's words, Lei Tian let out a cold laugh, "Of course we're not going to kill you, Ling Zhenfei. We're just planning to capture you and deliver you to the Imperial Palace Club. As for how they'll deal with you, that's none of my concern."

Ling Zhenfei laughed scornfully, "Do you really think you can capture me with just three handguns?"

Lei Tian nodded, "Do you really think you can escape from the three of us with our guns?"

"How will I know if I don't try?" In Ling Zhenfei's dictionary, there was no such thing as 'surrender without a fight'. Even through hell and high water, he was determined to push through.

Lei Tian's expression turned ugly in an instant, "Ling Zhenfei, you are seeking death. You're far too arrogant. There are three of us with three guns, and you still refuse to submit. Listen to me, just give up today. Whatever skills you have, you can show them off at the Imperial Palace Club."

Ling Zhenfei started to laugh, "I can admit defeat, but as for this scum, I will make sure he dies."

Ling Zhenfei pointed his finger at Jiang Hao, his eyes filled with hatred. He had made up his mind; he couldn't endure Jiang Hao's betrayal.

Upon hearing Ling Zhenfei's words, Jiang Hao laughed brazenly, "Ling Zhenfei, you really are audacious. I'm standing right here. If you have the ability, just kill me."

But before Jiang Hao could finish speaking, he saw Ling Zhenfei's body move with lightning speed, striking like a cobra pouncing at the perfect moment, completely disregarding the three guns surrounding him.

Ling Zhenfei's movements were as fast as lightning, lunging toward Jiang Hao so rapidly that even Lei Tian wasn't ready to shoot, and Ling Zhenfei had already made his move.

Jiang Hao was taken aback, never expecting Ling Zhenfei to launch a sudden attack. Jiang Hao had only just reached the Mingmu Realm and was no match for Ling Zhenfei in terms of speed. Ling Zhenfei attacked so fast that Jiang Hao had no way to dodge and had to use all his Spiritual Power to block.

But at that moment, he saw a brilliant light emerging from Ling Zhenfei's right hand. Before Ling Zhenfei's body even reached him, he had already swung his finger out.

Sky Piercing Finger!

This was the first time Ling Zhenfei had used the Sky Piercing Finger, and it was against Jiang Hao. Jiang Hao had really driven him mad. Not killing him was not enough to quell the rage in his heart.

The powerful Sky Piercing Finger was formidable. Even before Ling Zhenfei could reach him, the Northern Spiritual Energy of the Sky Piercing Finger had already struck, faster than lightning and ferocious in power. Jiang Hao exerted all his might to create a barrier in front of him, attempting to block the Northern Spiritual Energy.

Thud!

The sound of a sack being pierced echoed, and then you saw Jiang Hao, a lively man just moments before, who didn't even get to say a word before being struck by the Sky Piercing Finger.

The Sky Piercing Finger pierced a huge hole right through Jiang Hao's chest, allowing one to see the wall behind him through the opening.

Blood sprayed out, staining the ground red and also dyeing Ling Zhenfei's clothes. Ling Zhenfei stood proudly, like a devil that had emerged from hell.

"Damn right I am that wild!" Ling Zhenfei coldly said to the corpse of Jiang Hao who had fallen.

The whole room fell silent. Ling Zhenfei turned his gaze to Lei Tian and the other two, whose faces revealed expressions of disbelief. Even though they were holding guns, they had no confidence whatsoever.

They had never seen such a terrifying scene or encountered someone so recklessly brutal. To commit murder under the threat of three guns and take a life with such a horrifying method in one move was beyond their experience.

"Well, now you've saved yourselves some money," Ling Zhenfei sneered, his eyes still sharp as ever.

Liang Tian and Han Zhaolong looked at Lei Tian, presumably only they understood the message in each other's eyes.

They were clearly deliberating on what to do next. To strike was to kill, sheer madness. A human life was gone, just like that.

"Ling Zhenfei, we don't want to fight you nor do we intend to harm you. If you're wise, you'll surrender now," Lei Tian said, still calm, obviously still planning to capture Ling Zhenfei.

"Lei Tian, do you really think I, Ling Zhenfei, am afraid of you? You talk about harming me, but it's not yet certain who will harm whom. Why don't you shoot and try, see if I can dodge your bullets." Ling Zhenfei glared at Lei Tian and the other two, suddenly shifting his aura, instantly suppressing the momentum of Lei Tian.

Lei Tian was stumped, not knowing what to say. Ling Zhenfei continued, "You are currently at the Peak of Mingmu, and you should know that guns pose a slight threat to you, but to someone at the Zhiyi Boundary like me, they're as good as scrap metal. And you think it's not laughable to threaten me with three toy guns?"

When Ling Zhenfei compared the handguns to scrap metal, he was actually addressing Lei Tian and his companions. Although dodging a single bullet would be no problem for someone at the Zhiyi Boundary, who could easily evade a flying bullet, it was a different story if three guns were to fire at the same time—he might not be able to cope.

"Ling Zhenfei, I don't believe you can dodge bullets. Even if you can, it's not certain that you could take on the three of us brothers," Lei Tian retorted, still remarkably composed, his face betraying none of his true thoughts.

Ling Zhenfei chuckled, "I'll give you an option; leave now and we'll stay out of each other's way in the future. But if you shoot or make a move, I guarantee you'll regret it."

"Kid, you're really cocky, thinking we'd be scared of you just because you killed Jiang Hao," Han Zhaolong said angrily.

"If you don't believe it, then bring it on, talking is useless." Ling Zhenfei was ready for battle. The Sky Piercing Finger's first application had been astonishingly powerful, filling him with confidence. Facing three opponents, only Lei Tian had significant strength—he wasn't yet sure who the victor would be.

For a moment, the entire room quieted down. Neither Ling Zhenfei nor Lei Tian and his men attacked, as all harbored doubts in their hearts, none possessing the certainty of victory.
