CHAPTER 297: CHAPTER 295: POISONING THE NUMBER 1 ASSASSIN?

After leaving the cafe, Ye Huan, through Qin Guangming, found out where Zhong Ming and his group’s bodies were stored.

Celestial Sea City, Forensic Bureau.

In the morgue, Ye Huan pulled back the white sheet covering the four bodies.

Upon seeing their death forms, Ye Huan furrowed his brows tightly.

Their skin was purple, lips black, temples seeped with black blood, and they had bruises of varying degrees all over...

The bruises seemed to be caused by a heavy beating, but Ye Huan knew they weren’t caused by that, rather it was...

Poison!

A highly destructive toxin had completely ravaged their internal organs, then massively invaded the blood vessels, turning the fresh blood into toxic blood that seeped into the skin’s surface, forming clusters of bruises.

Ye Huan scanned the bodies, and after a few seconds, his eyes suddenly narrowed.

All four had a tiny blood hole on the left side of their necks, with a drop of black blood pearl on it.

Ye Huan extended his index finger.

"Mr. Ye, don’t!"

"This black blood is an extremely potent toxin that can seep into the body from the skin surface; just one drop can kill!"

"A forensic doctor accidentally got a drop on them during the autopsy, and now they’re lying in another morgue."

Beside him, Qin Guangming hurriedly stopped Ye Huan’s action.

"It’s okay." Ye Huan calmly uttered two words, sliding his index finger over the neck of the corpse.

A drop of black blood gathered on his fingertip.

Initially, Qin Guangming was extremely anxious, but then he looked bewildered.

What was going on? The forensic doctor who touched the toxic blood had it seep into their skin instantly, and not even ten seconds later, they were dead.

Now this poison blood drop didn’t even seep into Ye Huan’s skin; instead, it seemed to be evaporating?

Watching the white smoke lingering at Ye Huan’s fingertip, Qin Guangming was utterly confused, unable to understand the situation.

Little did he know, when Huan was ten years old, he was cruelly pressured by his master to soak in "poison soup" made from ten thousand kinds of toxins for a whole month, ultimately attaining a body immune to all poisons.

It can be said that all the toxins in the world are ineffective against Ye Huan!

The white smoke disappeared, and the drop of blood was completely evaporated. Ye Huan’s face grew a bit more serious as he asked, "Did the surveillance not even capture the assailant’s silhouette?"

Qin Guangming shook his head in dismay, "No, the surveillance footage shows Zhong Ming and the others suddenly sitting up inexplicably while sleeping, and then lying back down within ten seconds, dead."

Ye Huan reminded, "This matter is beyond the police’s jurisdiction; you’d better contact the Special Service Bureau and let them handle it."

Qin Guangming nodded, "I understand, I’ve already contacted the Special Service Bureau, and they’re on their way."

"Okay, then I’ll get going first."

Ye Huan covered the four bodies with the white sheets again and then left the morgue, his face still somewhat serious.

Judging by the poison technique used by the assailant and the stealthy capability they possessed, it’s not hard to imagine that the person Zhong Family summoned must be from the Dark World.

Huan reminded Qin Guangming to contact the Special Service Bureau due to this consideration. It’s fine for the police to capture common criminals, but killers from the Dark World are far beyond what they can handle.

Additionally, judging from the evaporation speed of that drop of poison blood, the toxicity is fierce and strong!

Ye Huan’s face was serious precisely because of this.

With his toxin-immunity physique, any toxin that comes into contact with him would begin to evaporate immediately, though the speed varies: the slower it is, the stronger the toxin.

The venom of the king cobra, known as the King of Hundred Poisons, would also evaporate in the air within a second upon contact with Ye Huan’s skin or blood.

But this drop of poison blood...

Took a full fifteen seconds to completely evaporate!

The toxicity was so strong that Ye Huan estimated even if the seventh assassin of the Dark World, One-Eyed Dragon, came back to life, touching a drop of this would surely lead to his death within ten seconds.

The assassin that the Zhong Family brought is a master of poison!

The poison technique is so skillful that it’s no exaggeration to call it transcendent.

In the corridor, Ye Huan furrowed his brows as he brushed past a group of men and women dressed in Special Service Bureau uniforms.

The leader of the Special Service Bureau, upon seeing Ye Huan, immediately had a change of face, quickly turning his head to watch Ye Huan’s departing silhouette.

"Captain, what’s wrong?" the person behind him asked.

"Oh, nothing, I probably saw it wrong." The leader furrowed his brows slightly, shook his head, and continued walking.

He was quite puzzled in his heart.

That person just now...

Why did they look so similar to the director? Even the silhouette was about seventy to eighty percent similar, strange!

"Colonel Zhou, on behalf of the Celestial Sea City Police Headquarters, I welcome you," Qin Guangming’s greeting brought Zhou Cang back out of his thoughts, making him forget about the person he just passed by.

...

Penglai Lakefront, B-06.

Since White Impermanence had already been taken care of, the probability of Zhang Huimin being in danger was almost zero, so Ye Huan didn’t force Kagami Reina to stick closely to Zhang Huimin anymore.

Kagami Reina simply stayed by Zhang Huimin’s side all day, protecting her, and spent a day at home practicing her skills.

Today, she was practicing at home.

Zhang Huimin was not in danger, but her own situation...

Extremely dangerous!

Kagami Reina’s face turned purple, she clutched her stomach and fell against the wall, with trickles of black blood at the corners of her mouth, and her delicate face full of pain.

"Hundred Transformations Clown?"

"The second assassin?"

"I spent half a month looking for you."

"But it only took a second to defeat you, how boring."

Poison Valley’s hands were in the pockets of his trench coat, his mouth showing the utmost sarcasm.

"You..." Kagami Reina spat out black blood, anger appearing on her face, yet a touch of despair was in her eyes.

Indeed, she couldn’t even withstand a punch from Poison Valley infused with toxins, losing her combat ability directly.

She knew that if Poison Valley wanted to kill her, it would be easy.

Poison Valley originally intended to poison Hundred Transformations Clown to death directly.

But...

He changed his mind now.

After saying goodbye to Zhong Qianqian, Poison Valley inadvertently saw Hundred Transformations Clown bargaining with a vendor at the market and felt an unusual aura from her.

By analyzing various small details, he confirmed that this woman was the second assassin of the Dark World—Hundred Transformations Clown!

Tracking to location B-06, he decisively struck, rendering her incapable of fighting with a single move.

"The person you serve, is it the first assassin?"

Poison Valley stepped on Kagami Reina’s abdomen and asked coldly.

He almost knew the answer, but he still wanted to confirm his speculation—after all, the dignified second assassin of the Dark World, willing to be someone’s maid? Who else could the person she serves be? It must be a stronger existence, namely, the first assassin!

Upon hearing this question, Kagami Reina’s face changed dramatically, then she shook her head vigorously.

She started to pray, pray that her master, Ye Huan, wouldn’t come back!

The man in front of her, who crossed thousands of miles to find her, must have a purpose to advance his ranking on the Assassin Rankings, and quite possibly aim for the top!

To claim the top spot, he would definitely make a move against the first assassin, Ye Huan!

This person’s mastery of Poison Technique is unsurpassed, killing her with one move would suffice, and perhaps even the mighty master couldn’t withstand it!

The despair in Kagami Reina’s eyes deepened, she gritted her teeth and said, "I... I serve, not... not the first assas..."

Before she finished speaking.

"Slap!"

Poison Valley slapped Kagami Reina, knocking her to the ground while she continuously spat out black blood.

Kagami Reina’s immediate reaction already confirmed Poison Valley’s speculation.

A dense look of excitement appeared on Poison Valley’s face, and then he laughed maniacally: "I won’t kill you now, I want you to watch with your own eyes how the first assassin dies at my hands! I want you to be a witness... a witness to me reaching the pinnacle of the Dark World’s Assassin Rankings, hahahaha!"

After a bout of wild laughter, he looked at his iron fist shrouded in black aura, and swung it fiercely into the air.

The momentum was unparalleled.

Having been in secluded mountains and forests for five years, he suddenly attained enlightenment, and his Poison Technique made tremendous improvements.

Equally, he was extremely confident.

He was confident that after his Poison Technique’s tremendous improvement, no one could endure three moves under his Poison Technique.

Even if an immortal came, within three moves, he could poison them to report to the Underworld!

Dealing with the second assassin, one move was enough!

Then to poison the first assassin, at most two moves!

Poison Valley was excited and confident; he laughed recklessly once more and then began to plan in his mind.

Thinking about whether to poison the first assassin to death within two moves or to use Poison Technique to torment him to death...

Not long after.

He made up his mind.

He chose to poison the first assassin to death in two moves!

With two moves, send the first assassin to report to the Underworld!

With the most fierce means, to become the king in the Assassin Realm!

The day to poison the first assassin and reach the top of the Assassin Rankings...

Is today!
