Chapter 756: Sharp Test! (1/2)

“Where is Boss Song? Why didn’t he come?” Bai Xiaofei immediately sensed something wrong.

The messenger looked troubled by his question.

Seeing this, Bai Xiaofei smiled and did not make it hard for him. “It’s all good, you don’t have to answer if it’s not convenient. Just take me there.”

Heaving a sigh of relief, the messenger turned around to lead the way. Behind him, Bai Xiaofei signaled Fang Ye with his eyes. Getting the hint, Fang Ye stepped back and whispered something to everyone.

Boss Tong’s invitation was to a banquet, so it was obviously meant for the whole group.

Starflame was not a big city. Before long, the party arrived at the inn where Old Song’s group had been staying. Despite being very familiar with it, Bai Xiaofei had to pretend as if this was his first time coming there.

“I have been traveling on business for so many years, but this is the first time I have seen a party host refusing to come out and greet the guests he personally invited! Even if your big boss doesn’t want to, Boss Song should not lack the time too!” Bai Xiaofei’s expression sank as he stood at the inn entrance.

However, never could he expect that the moment he finished speaking, a figure bolted at him.

Bai Xiaofei instinctively wanted to defend, but he held himself back. Wang Hang, who stood right behind, did not disappoint and managed to block the attack.

A crisp metallic sound echoed as two daggers struck each other. Seeing his attack fail, Heartless vanished on the spot.

Bai Xiaofei’s group was startled. It was an assassin-type ability!

“Ice!” Chen Hui reacted quickly. His Snowfreeze Pearl appeared and the temperature around dropped sharply.

An assassin in a vanished state would not be affected by attacks but must exit that state to do anything else. As Chen Hui had frozen the whole area around, Heartless would take damage the moment he showed himself.

Meanwhile, except for Bai Xiaofei and his guards, Hu Xian’er’s group retreated in panic. Duan Yiyi tightly held Lin Li as tears streamed down her face.

Knowing that he could not continue to attack, Heartless backed out and appeared behind Boss Tong who had just walked downstairs.

“My bad, Boss Bai, given how unique our industry is, being extremely cautious is a must. If you have been offended, please forgive me.” Boss Tong walked to Bai Xiaofei and extended his right hand. “Very nice to meet you, I am Tong Fei.”

Looking at Tong Fei’s hand, Bai Xiaofei sneered.

Heartless was but a Grandmaster Rank assassin. Bai Xiaofei had traded blows with a monster that rendered even Legend Rank experts helpless.

“I will definitely give you satisfactory compensation. What do you think of a five-percent discount?” Tong Fei smiled, completely unaffected.

“Eight percent!” Bai Xiaofei did not hesitate to add three whole percent.

Businessmen only sought profit, which Bai Xiaofei interpreted to the fullest as it was in his nature…
