Dragon's Origin

## Chapter 101: Assassination in the Street (Part 2)

Not far behind Wang Sheng, a young man who had previously been bargaining at a stall suddenly jumped up, a small crossbow of unknown origin in his hand, aimed at Wang Sheng's chest.

Don't underestimate the small crossbow; its arms are only the length of a normal person's forearm, but it possesses immense power. The tiny bolt emitted a sharp, piercing sound as it flew through the air, arriving in an instant.

Wang Sheng's reaction was quick enough. The newly crafted hot pot in his left hand was used as a shield in front of his chest, while his handgun fired several shots, directly hitting the assassin.

Killing people in the outer city of Worry-Free City wasn't unheard of, but those who did so had to pay a heavy price. Failure meant being killed in return, and even success required paying a substantial fine to Worry-Free City.

It was unknown who wanted Wang Sheng's life. Before entering Worry-Free City, Wang Sheng had killed too many people and offended too many families. It wouldn't be surprising if any of them sent someone after him.

However, the timing was quite strange. Logically, Wang Sheng was about to reveal the secret of upgrading his insignificant spirit embryo, something all the major families were eager to know. They would definitely not make a move now. Even if they did, it would be after Wang Sheng announced it, and within a month at most. How impatient would these families have to be to do something like this?

Wang Sheng's gun was fast. Six shots in a row, the first aimed at the chest, the rest at the eyes and head. At such close range, Wang Sheng's marksmanship was so accurate that the first three shots almost certainly hit the assassin.

Anyone who dared to act in Worry-Free City would not be a mediocre opponent. Therefore, Wang Sheng's first reaction was to shoot and kill, even at the cost of emptying his handgun.

The sounds of gunfire stunned everyone who witnessed the scene. They stared blankly at the strange weapon in Wang Sheng's hand, completely unable to identify what it was.

The assassin was already dead. The first shot hit his chest. He must have been wearing some kind of body armor, as he was unharmed by the first shot. But from the second shot that hit his left eye, he had no chance of survival.

Wang Sheng's marksmanship was extremely precise, especially after strengthening his eyesight and increasing his strength in recent days, his stability had increased severalfold. The second shot hit the left eye, and the third shot hit the right eye. These two shots directly took the assassin's life.

The last three shots, however, were not fired at the guy who jumped up to fire the crossbow, but at the seemingly harmless and completely still middle-aged man selling goods behind the assassin.

At first glance, the middle-aged man looked like an ordinary person, with graying hair, looking like a pitiful person who had experienced the hardships of life. However, this disguise would be normal outside, but it was very abnormal in Worry-Free City.

Anyone who could set up a stall in Worry-Free City possessed formidable strength. Of course, another characteristic was that they were all extremely kind to all customers.

But this old man had a bitter face, looking like he was forced by life to be so miserable that he had no smile. But in Worry-Free City, a face like someone had died in his family was not the face of a shopkeeper.

Moreover, who was Wang Sheng? Wang Sheng could remember his chance encounter with the assassin A Qi in Shanglin City four months ago, so how could he not remember the owner of the small shop next to Big Pillar's blacksmith shop yesterday?

Ding! As Wang Sheng's gun fired, the crossbow bolt had already hit the hot pot in Wang Sheng's hand. The bolt was exceptionally sharp, and Wang Sheng's hand shook as the bolt penetrated both the upper and lower layers of the hot pot, embedding itself into Wang Sheng's chest.

However, the bolt could no longer move forward at this point, and it simply stopped there. Everyone thought that the bolt had pierced through two layers of metal and reached the end of its strength, but only Wang Sheng knew that his liquid body armor had saved his life again.

At this moment, the three bullets from the last three shots had already reached the middle-aged man. The old man did not dodge or evade. His left hand flashed three times like a ghost, and he caught all three bullets in his hand.

At the same time, the old man gently pushed with his right hand, and the corpse of the young assassin flew towards Wang Sheng like a cannonball. He himself seemed to have become weightless, sticking close to the young assassin's corpse and floating towards Wang Sheng.

Wang Sheng's figure was also rapidly retreating, but the old guy's cultivation was too high. Wang Sheng's speed of retreat could not even keep up with the speed of the corpse he pushed.

Bang! Wang Sheng and the corpse collided solidly. Wang Sheng felt like he had been hit by a wall, and he flew up involuntarily, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

An extremely thin spike pierced through the armpit of the corpse in a bizarre manner, accurately aiming for Wang Sheng's chest. The tip of the spike seemed to have already touched Wang Sheng, and a cold smile of success appeared on the old assassin's face.

Thud! The spike hit a very tough object, stopping its forward momentum. No matter how hard the old assassin tried, he could only push Wang Sheng backward, but the spike could not penetrate Wang Sheng's body at all.

The old assassin refused to believe it. He opened his left hand, and three bullets roared towards Wang Sheng's head. The distance was too close, and it looked like Wang Sheng's head was about to be pierced through, but suddenly a colorful steel helmet appeared on Wang Sheng's head. With three 'dang, dang, dang' sounds, all three bullets hit Wang Sheng's helmet.

The young assassin's corpse had fallen to the ground, no longer an obstacle between Wang Sheng and the old assassin. The old assassin finally saw what his spike had pierced.

A roll of unknown monster beast's hide, which was obviously rolled up and stored in the storage ring, was taken out by Wang Sheng in a hurry and placed at the tip of the spike. The old assassin's spike could not penetrate it. There was no need to look, this was definitely a high-level monster beast's hide, otherwise it would not have such a powerful effect.

But Wang Sheng's own cultivation was still far behind. After being stabbed by the spike, although it did not penetrate his body, the force was transmitted to Wang Sheng's body. Puff, another mouthful of blood.

Even though Wang Sheng spat blood, he did not forget to attack. He spat a mouthful of blood directly at the old assassin's face. How experienced was the old assassin? How could he care about Wang Sheng's deceptive methods? He was directly sprayed in the face with a mouthful of blood, but the old assassin did not even blink. The spike, pressing against Wang Sheng's body, pushed directly towards the wall not far behind Wang Sheng.

The old assassin had the confidence that even if he couldn't pierce Wang Sheng's body, such a collision would end Wang Sheng's life. Moreover, at the moment he made his move, three more assassins were cooperating with him, rushing towards Wang Sheng.

Seeing that the old assassin was about to succeed, Wang Sheng's back was only four or five meters away from the wall over there, and it would take at most one or two seconds to end it, but a smile appeared on Wang Sheng's bloody face.

"Inner city!" Wang Sheng said these three words with a smile. The M200 appeared in Wang Sheng's hand at some point, the muzzle already against the old assassin's chest, and then Wang Sheng pulled the trigger.
