...

As a former Three-star Assassin, Sinan had been away from the assassin business for many years, yet his keen sense of danger had never diminished.

Arms dealers can sometimes be more dangerous than assassins...

At least assassins lurk in the shadows to assassinate their targets, whereas arms dealers must conduct transactions in the open, so Sinan had always placed great importance on his own safety.

Like today's transaction, if it weren't for the fact that the Millennium Ancient Corpse was too important, Sinan wouldn't have shown up in person, but he knew that the Assassin's Alliance had definitely sent people after him, so he remained hidden in the shadows.

The situation with that villa was the same, and so was this transaction aboard the ship...

However, he never expected that an assassin would manage to sneak onto the ship unnoticed. If it hadn't been for Raymond opening the door, he might have been the one to die just now.

Sinan pulled out the gun he kept close to his body, hiding in the corner of the cockpit, his gloomy eyes fixed tightly on the direction of the cabin door.

As an assassin, a butcher who had slaughtered countless people, Sinan dared not be careless.

This assassination attempt was something he had anticipated long ago, and he also knew some basic information about the three assassins coming after him. The Three-star Assassin, Ghost Bear, had already died at the hands of Explosive Bear Locke, leaving only the One-star and Two-star Assassins...

Assassins of such rank, within the Assassin's Alliance, were merely the most basic, those who hadn't earned much money yet, and they were the easiest to handle.

"Young man, you're trying to kill me just for the money. I, Sinan, am not a stingy person. Whatever the Assassin's Alliance pays you, I'll give you double, no, ten times... How about it?"

Thinking of this, Sinan spoke out towards the direction of the cabin door.

He attempted to tempt the assassin after him with money... He could afford any amount, the most important thing was to save his own life.

Right now, what he needed most was to buy time. As soon as the transaction ahead was completed, his people would retreat back to the ship, and then he would be saved.

The reason he didn't engage in a gunfight with the assassin, so as to attract attention with the sound of gunfire, was mainly because he was worried that the assassin, if cornered, would adopt some illegal methods.

Such as... a grenade.

Even though this method of killing was rarely used by assassins, he couldn't entirely rule out the possibility.

"Money? I'm afraid you can't offer enough..."

Qin Fang's voice came faintly from outside the cabin door...

In fact, he was quite frustrated at the moment. Raymond, that "Black Ghost," had killed too early. If he had waited for him to leave first, Qin Fang could have impersonated him to gain Sinan's trust and kill him up close.

But Qin Fang had just arrived at the cabin door when he found it open, and almost instinctively, he shot and killed Raymond on the spot.

This, in turn, made Sinan aware and drove him to hide in the corner, and now killing him would not be so easy...

A grenade?

He did want to throw one inside.

With the cockpit being so small, one grenade would be enough to blast Sinan to the heavens, but the problem was that he didn't have any grenades. He had amassed quite an arsenal, but he hadn't prepared grenades.

"Damn it, I definitely need to carry a few on me next time..."

Qin Fang silently made a note to himself.

"There's no such thing I can't offer, just name your price, I can give you anything..."

When Sinan heard Qin Fang's words, his tone was firm, but he seemed to also not be completely averse to negotiation, and he immediately called out from inside again.

At the same time, he was secretly contacting his men outside, urging them to hurry back and save him.

"Beauty, I've found Sinan, but there's a bit of trouble, I need your support..."

There was a temporary stalemate, and Qin Fang knew that he couldn't drag things out any longer. The only solution was to cause some chaos so that he could take the opportunity to kill Sinan.

If he were alone, it would be difficult to act, but fortunately, Su Xiaoxiao was watching by the riverside, so he immediately made contact with her and whispered.

"Understood..."

He heard Su Xiaoxiao's voice, followed by the sound of her manipulating her gun.

Pop~~

A faint gunshot.

Ratatat~~

And almost within a few seconds, a very distinct burst of gunfire came from outside the cabin...

"Damn it, who the hell is causing trouble for me..."

Qin Fang cursed under his breath and then became completely silent, as if he had left.

On another boat.

"Damn it, they're actually trying to pull a fast one..."

The two groups were already engaging in fire, and the plank that spanned between the two boats had somehow fallen into the river, leaving Sinan's men trapped on the other boat.

Su Xiaoxiao was ruthless enough, she directly shot Sinan's body double dead, and Sinan's men immediately drew their guns to retaliate, killing seven or eight tomb robbers in a face-off...

However, these tomb robbers were not ordinary people either; losing so many men at once, the cabin quickly saw another dozen gunmen emerge, their formidable firepower completely suppressing Sinan's people.

In fact, this was all part of Sinan's plan - to use the members of Assassin's Alliance to kill his body double, then he would turn on the tomb robbers and eliminate them. He would then successfully take possession of the millennium ancient corpse and disappear without a trace...

He would just need to change his face, adopt a new identity, and he could be resurrected once more... Just with enough time to create a group of experts, Sinan would then have the capital to stand against the Assassin's Alliance.

Of course, if it wasn't for the unexpected intrusion of Qin Fang the assassin, things might have been even more perfect...

But he also didn't expect these tomb robbers to have such strong firepower, and the unexpected fall of the sampan was also beyond his expectation.

Outside the cabin, the gunfire was incredibly dense, the two groups were fighting fiercely, and bullets whizzed through the air, with no one daring to stick their heads out haphazardly.

The tomb robbers were formidable, seizing the chaos to lift anchor and start the boat, attempting to flee... If Sinan's men didn't get reinforcements, they naturally had ways to eliminate the remaining people.

Everybody knew how to betray and double-cross.

Sinan was ruthless towards them, and they were certainly not the least bit courteous in return.

With the millennium ancient corpse in their hands, it was a precious commodity; naturally, there would be someone willing to buy from them at a high price... If they didn't also know the thing was a ticking time bomb, they probably would have kept it for themselves.

Of course, they knew some secrets about the ancient corpse that Sinan didn't...

All this was unknown to Qin Fang, and as the tomb robbers' ship sailed away, Sinan's ship was left moored, lonely, in the center of the river, with Sinan being the only person in the cockpit.

Bang~ Bang~

But there were quite a few people on the deck, all Sinan's ambushing troops, who didn't make it before the firefight unfolded and so joined the gunfight on the deck.

Qin Fang hid in the shadows, his gun transformed into a reaper of lives, and almost with each shot someone fell...

These gunmen were Sinan's elite, all loyal subordinates, and should they discover Sinan was trapped, they would become the biggest obstacle to Qin Fang taking down Sinan.

"There's an assassin on board..."

However, after killing five people continuously, the tomb robbers' ship had already gotten a bit distant; their bullets couldn't reach, and it was immediately clear to someone that there was a sniper among them, stealthily taking down their men.

With a whoosh, all the gunmen quickly sought cover, while simultaneously sweeping gunfire across the area from where they were being shot at...

These men, still seven or eight in number, had formidable firepower and covered each other well, making even Qin Fang hesitant to reveal himself...

"Damn, the boss is still up there!"

They soon realized, with the outside turned into such chaos, and Sinan and Raymond yet to appear, while the assassin was striking at them inside the ship, leaving them extremely anxious; their firepower intensified even more.

"Time to vanish..."

Qin Fang's objective had been achieved, and he immediately hid away silently.

Whoosh~~

As the gunmen swiftly moved toward the cabin, a human shadow at the stern leaped into the rolling river, creating a loud splash and sending a large wave of water spraying into the air.

Rat-a-tat-tat-tat-tat~~

The gunmen immediately rushed to the stern, unleashing a barrage of bullets towards where the water had splashed, but alas, there was no movement in the water.

"Protect the boss..."

Killing wasn't the objective; Sinan's safety was their top concern, so a group of gunmen stood by, looking out for the enemy, while another four or five people rushed toward the cockpit.

Raymond's body lay quietly there, adding to their unease; they quickly stormed into the cabin...

"Boss!"

As four or five men entered, they quickly took up strong positions while searching for Sinan's whereabouts.

"I'm here..."

Sinan, noticing that these men were his subordinates, felt slightly relieved but didn't hurry to show himself, "What's the situation outside?"

Although he could hear the intense gunfire outside, he wasn't clear on the specific details and could only ask his subordinates.

"An assassin appeared, shot the boss's double, but their firepower is strong, they blew away the sampan, and our men are trapped on their ship..."

A gunman who seemed to be a small-time leader reported with a frown.

Everything had happened so suddenly, they hadn't had the chance to react, as if the other side had already anticipated this outcome.

"Where's the assassin?"

Sinan's brow furrowed deeply, sensing he might have been set up by someone, yet he couldn't figure out who it could be.

And then when he thought about Qin Fang who had infiltrated the ship, his worries deepened.

"He jumped overboard and left…"

The leading gunman replied, something many of them had witnessed, even though they felt the situation couldn't be that simple. (To be continued. If you enjoy this work, welcome to Qidian (qidian.com) to cast your recommendation tickets and monthly tickets, your support is my greatest motivation.)
