Chapter 1164: Chapter 1164: Unveiling the Assassin’s Veil

“Don’t worry, I’ll be fine,” Xiao Xuan said confidently.

Now Jin Guozhong also knew Xiao Xuan’s capabilities, but he couldn’t let Xiao Xuan take the risk alone.

“I’ll go. Your observation skills are better than mine, so you’ll have a better chance of getting in,” Jin Guozhong said seriously.

After all, Xiao Xuan was Xiang Yu’s brother, and if something happened to Xiao Xuan, he wouldn’t be able to explain it to Xiang Yu.

Jin Guozhong wanted to rush out but was held back by Xiao Xuan.

“You won’t make it. If you go out, they will definitely catch you.” Xiao Xuan wasn’t being modest; it wasn’t that he looked down on Jin Guozhong, it was just the truth.

“You can’t go either. Even if we get in, we might not be able to catch the Sky Thief Rat. That guy is always cunning and very skilled. The three of us could take him down, but we’ll definitely make noise. When that happens, people around will come over,” Jin Guozhong said worriedly.

Xiao Xuan was also troubled. Jin Guozhong was right; even if they got in, it would be difficult to catch the Sky Thief Rat quietly.

Just then, someone in the distance suddenly shouted.

“Stop, catch him.”

Jin Guozhong and the others were startled. What’s going on, had they been discovered?

Jin Guozhong wanted to rush out with his men, but was stopped by Xiao Xuan.

“It’s not us. Stay calm,” Xiao Xuan said with a determined expression, looking towards the distance.

Only then did Jin Guozhong and the others steady themselves. When they saw no one rushing in, they relaxed and let out a long breath.

At this moment, the patrol team in front of them also started moving, running towards the direction of the commotion.

“Xiao Xuan, there’s an opportunity,” Jin Guozhong pointed ahead.

When Jin Guozhong turned to look at Xiao Xuan, he saw Xiao Xuan fully focused on the front, eyes sharp, ready to act.

“Get ready,” Xiao Xuan said, and then charged ahead at his fastest speed.

Jin Guozhong was amazed. Watching Xiao Xuan’s movements, he was full of admiration. Xiao Xuan leaped forward like a panther.

If you weren’t looking carefully, his speed would be hard to track.

No time to think too much, Jin Guozhong pulled his two men, wanting to rush forward as well. At this moment, Jin Guozhong suddenly sensed something wrong and pulled back.

Another patrol squad was walking their way. Knowing their own speed, they realized it was impossible to rush past.

Xiao Xuan dashed to the front of the villa, then took a leap roll and slipped silently into the villa.

The first floor of the villa was brightly lit, but fortunately, there was no one around. Xiao Xuan had already seen this from outside.

Once inside, he quickly dashed into a room to hide.

Jin Guozhong and his men saw that Xiao Xuan had gone in and became anxious. If Xiao Xuan was discovered, he certainly wouldn’t escape.

“Hall Master, should we rush in?” one person asked worriedly. He had previously doubted Xiao Xuan, thinking he was boasting.

Now he truly admired him.

Jin Guozhong shook his head and said softly, “If we go, we’ll just alert the enemy and make things worse for him.”

The three could only hide and wait for an opportunity. At this moment, a gunshot rang out from afar, followed by someone shouting, “Caught him, report to the Hall Master immediately.”

The Sky Thief Rat had already gotten out of bed and was leisurely sipping a glass of red wine.

The phone rang, and a voice came from the other side.

“Hall Master, we caught someone, a woman,” the person said.

“A woman?” Sky Thief Rat was not surprised that someone came to assassinate him, but was somewhat taken aback that it was a woman.

“Bring her over,” Sky Thief Rat said, then hung up the phone. He was pondering who could have sent her; if it were Xiang Yu, he wouldn’t send just a woman.

In about three minutes, four people forced a person in black inside.

“Let go of me, let go of me, Sky Thief Rat, I’ll kill you,” the person in black shouted.

The person in black was tightly bound and stood there yelling, but the black veil covering the face was not removed.

On hearing this, Sky Thief Rat laughed and waved his hand to signal his men to leave.

This villa, unless there were special circumstances, allowed no one to enter.

Sky Thief Rat only set defenses outside, and generally, the room had him alone, although occasionally there would be women.

The four saw Sky Thief Rat’s expression and understood, sharing a smile as they left.

“You’re Leng Chan,” Sky Thief Rat said excitedly.

Leng Chan’s beauty was renowned in the Hongmen society, the object of many men’s fantasies, but her cold demeanor kept everyone at bay.

“Xiang Yu is really useless, sending just a woman,” Sky Thief Rat stood beside Leng Chan, lightly caressing her face.

Even through a layer of veil, Leng Chan couldn’t help but shiver.

“Sky Thief Rat, you’re a bastard, a beast,” Leng Chan cursed through gritted teeth.

Sky Thief Rat didn’t get angry, instead, he laughed heartily, thoroughly enjoying it. Then he said, “You weren’t sent by Xiang Yu. We have no enmity; why are you here to assassinate me?”

From Leng Chan’s expression, Sky Thief Rat understood she was here for personal grievances.

“You scum, pretending not to know what you did?” Leng Chan shouted.

Sky Thief Rat was puzzled; he wasn’t familiar with Leng Chan and certainly had no memory of doing anything to her.

He walked up to Leng Chan and removed her veil, exposing her beautiful face in full view.

In this quiet night, such a beauty standing before him would stir anyone’s heart, including the most indifferent.

Sky Thief Rat wasn’t in a hurry. He walked to the sofa, picked up the red wine, and quietly admired her.

This night, no one would come to bother him. He planned to thoroughly enjoy it.

“I don’t recall any grudges with you. Is it because of Poison Rose?” Sky Thief Rat asked curiously.

“Shameless, you harmed my father, don’t think you’re the only one who knows,” Leng Chan said angrily.

On hearing this, Sky Thief Rat finally understood and nodded, “I’ve killed many people, so I wouldn’t know who your father is. But since you came after me, there shouldn’t be any mistake.”

Sky Thief Rat didn’t pursue the question further. Even he lost track of the number of people he had killed, including one who was Leng Chan’s father, which was not surprising.

Knowing their enmity, Sky Thief Rat felt at ease. Then he stood up with a lewd grin.

Leng Chan knew what Sky Thief Rat wanted, tears welling in her eyes, but she refused to let them fall.

“Father, I’m sorry. This pain won’t avenge you,” Leng Chan murmured.

“Tell me his face, perhaps it’ll jog my memory,” Sky Thief Rat said, touching her face.

“Sky Thief Rat, you vile creature, have you even forgotten your own Hall Master?” Leng Chan said with disdain.

Speaking of her Hall Master, Sky Thief Rat was suddenly stunned. He wouldn’t forget Lu Xiaofeng…
