The temptation behind gentleness
Chapter 1019 - 1019
Su Fan's strategy was very simple, simple yet effective.
That was to first eliminate all those with guns, and finally deal with the Esoteric Monk's Fu Zan Master.
His dislike for the Esoteric Monk was no less than his dislike for the Liu Sheng family from the East.
If the Esoteric Monk didn't come looking for trouble, it would be fine.
But since they came, they won't be leaving!
Kobayashi Sazai and Kushiyama didn't know that a pair of eyes were secretly watching their every move closely.
After moving a certain distance, Kobayashi Sazai gestured to Kushiyama, indicating that he was about to go forward to check, asking Kushiyama to cover him.
Kushiyama immediately responded with a gesture, and then Kobayashi Sazai entered a dense forest.
Almost at the moment Kobayashi Sazai entered the forest, Su Fan made his move.
He was hiding in a large tree above Kushiyama's head, he leapt down, and the Tai Chi Sword in his hand thrust straight down!
This time, he wasn't using the startling short sword, but the Tai Chi Sword.
This was a divine weapon forged with ancient methods, truly capable of cutting gold and jade, slicing through iron like mud.
Kushiyama's skull, in front of the Tai Chi Sword, was as fragile as tofu.
Su Fan's Tai Chi Sword directly nailed into Kushiyama's head, causing this sniper from the East to die instantly!
"Bang!"
Even though Kushiyama was unable to produce any effective resistance, in his dying moment, he still managed to fire a shot.
This shot, of course, didn't aim at anything, it was purely to use the sound of the gunshot to alert others that Su Fan was in this place.
His self-assured shot ended up helping Su Fan a lot.
When everyone else was drawn to this place, Su Fan could easily find a place to hide.
He was like a hunter roaming in the darkness, ready at the perfect moment to deliver a fatal strike to his prey.
Initially, Su Fan was the prey of the Esoteric Monk Fu Zan Master and the Kawabata family's sniper squad.
Now the roles had reversed, Su Fan had become the hunter, and they had become the prey.
Kobayashi Sazai, Kawabata Yuuta, and Kawabata Takeshi, along with the Esoteric Monk's Fu Zan Master, quickly rushed over.
After they arrived, their expressions were somewhat grim.
Up until now, they hadn't been able to inflict any harm on Su Fan; instead, three of their men had died.
Ordinarily, one might persist against Su Fan out of anger or fear of bearing responsibility for failure.
But Kawabata Yuuta was not an ordinary person; even at such times, he remained extremely rational.
Similarly, he also never feared bearing the responsibility for failure.
Being able to bear the responsibility for failure indicated that he was still alive.
Had he died, he wouldn't be able to bear the responsibility, even if he wanted to.
Without a doubt, this assassination mission had already failed.
Kawabata Yuuta decisively said, "Su Fan is more formidable than we imagined. This operation ends here. Handle the bodies of Kushiyama and the others, and then let's temporarily retreat."
Hearing this, Fu Zan Master was thoroughly disappointed with this group.
He immediately left without any hesitation.
Kawabata Yuuta certainly wouldn't bother with this Esoteric Monk; since the other didn't listen, there was nothing he could do.
Su Fan originally wanted to find a chance to continue hunting these enemies.
But as they began to retreat, it became difficult for him to make a move.
However, Su Fan still had no intention of letting these people go; if Kobayashi Sazai and the others could hunt him, he could certainly hunt them down too.
Yet, just as he was about to pursue Kobayashi Sazai and the others, he saw that the Fu Zan Master had not yet retreated.
This made him hesitate slightly, and in the end, he was forced to abandon the idea of pursuing Kobayashi Sazai and the others.
