C706 Suspended Operations
They had no choice but to take the risk of being punished.
"Hmph!" Seeing the three of them trembling like quails, the middle-aged man was even more furious. However, reason told him that Ann Tianke was already dead. No matter how he punished the three of them, it would not help.
They were all dead, so it was impossible for them to come back to life.
Gulp!
Ann Tianloong rolled his throat and said angrily, "Mister Deacon, we didn't expect him to die either. We were supposed to carry out the mission you gave us, but we didn't expect something unexpected to happen. The people in the family were killed by an unknown kid one after another, which greatly affected our mission. I really had no choice but to send Tianke to get rid of that kid. I just didn't expect... that Tianke would also die in that kid's hands. "
Originally, Ann Baiyun and Ann Baifeng's death in Lee Yifann's hands didn't surprise them. But when they sent more experts to kill Lee Yifann, in the end, they still lost some men. They had to reevaluate Lee Yifann's strength.
In order to ensure that nothing would go wrong, they sent the strongest person in the An family, Ann Tianke, to assassinate Lee Yifann.
They had thought that it would be a sure win, but they never expected that their jaws would drop.
Ann Tianke was also dead!
Such a blow was no different from a lightning strike to Ann Tianloong and the other two.
Putting aside the fact that the four of them were originally brothers, the blood of brotherhood was thicker than water. They were already very sad that they had died. What was even more abominable was that they couldn't do anything to Lee Yifann, who had killed Ann Tianke.
This was the most infuriating thing!
The enemy was clearly right in front of them, but they didn't have the ability to take revenge. That kind of feeling was even worse than killing them.
The middle-aged man coldly swept his gaze over. His gaze was filled with coldness. "Is that kid really as you said? Is he really a Heavenly Master in his early twenties?"
"Absolutely true! Mister Deacon, I dare not lie! That Lord Li is a rising star in the Luzhou City recently. It was said that he was only in his early twenties and was extremely powerful. The patriarchs of the seven big families in the Huizhou Province were all killed by him. This proved that the rumors were true!" Ann Tianloong quickly replied.
The middle-aged man frowned and said, "Even if the rumors are true, Ann Tianke is a Middle Stage Heavenly Master. It is impossible for an ordinary Heavenly Master to kill him. Then, Master Li, could he be a high level Heavenly Master?"
Ridiculous!
A Heavenly Master in his early twenties was already scary enough.
To be able to kill a Middle Stage Heavenly Master was even more absurd.
To say that this Lord Li was a high realm Heavenly Master, or in other words, a Later Period of Golden Core Stage, was the biggest joke in the world. Even if the middle-aged man was a Nascent Infant Stage, he wouldn't believe that there was such a genius in the world.
A Later Period of Golden Core Stage in his early twenties, did he start cultivating when he was still in his mother's womb?
"Hmph! Thinking about that Heavenly Feather Divine Sword Gai Jiuyuv, he had only broken through to the Heavenly Master Realm at the age of 25! A Heavenly Master in his early twenties was already absurd enough. Could that Lord Li be more monstrous than Gai Jiuyuv?" The middle-aged man was unwilling to accept this fact from the bottom of his heart.
Ann Tianloong and the others looked at each other and lowered their heads. "This... This subordinate does not know."
To be honest, when they first found out that Master Li was a Heaven Master, they didn't believe it either.
Back then, Gai Jiuyuv had broken through to the Heavenly Master realm at the age of 25, shocking everyone in the world. It had almost caused a huge earthquake in World of Martial Dao.
From now on, no matter how talented a genius was, no one would be able to break through to the Heavenly Master realm before the age of twenty-five.
It could be said that Gai Jiuyuv was the number one genius in the World of Martial Dao!
A genius who could rival Gai Jiuyuv had already far exceeded the scope of Ann Tianloong and the others' understanding, not to mention this Master Li. Now, it seemed like he had not only just broken through to the Heavenly Master realm, but also had just broken through to the Heavenly Master realm.
Such talent could no longer be described as a genius, it could even be described as a monster!
The middle-aged man's body was emitting a cold aura, and his eyes were flickering for a moment. He ordered in a deep voice, "Because of your stupidity, your plan has been messed up! Immediately pick one of the members from the An family as your substitute. If the An family doesn't have a Heaven Master, then... The next step of the plan cannot be carried out!"
"Yes!" The three of them hurriedly received the orders and heaved a sigh of relief at the same time.
Since the middle aged man had given the order, then it meant that their failure this time should be forgiven.
"During this period of time, all the actions of the An family have been suspended! Wait and see, wait for the order! Before the new Heaven Master takes over, do not act rashly! Did you hear that?" The middle-aged man's voice suddenly rose a few degrees.
The three of them panicked and hurriedly nodded. "Yes! We will obey Mister Deacon's orders!"
The An family's operations had been suspended, which meant that they had to stop infiltrating the various large families in order to avoid being exposed.
It could be said that Ann Tianke's death this time was a huge blow to the An family, causing the An family's overall strength to be greatly reduced!
In this capital that focused on strength, without the support of a Heavenly Master, once they encountered an unpredictable situation, they would not even have the confidence to deal with it.
Right at this moment, a person rushed in from outside the house.
That person walked directly to the middle-aged man's side and reported in a low voice, "Mister Deacon, there's a situation."
"Speak!"
"The Shangguan Family seemed to have discovered something new, but they lost a very important person."
"What's the situation?"
The man hesitated for a moment, then moved closer to the middle-aged man's ear and whispered a few words in a low voice.
The middle-aged man was shocked. "Really?"
"Not completely sure. It's just a speculation. But the possibility is quite high. Shangguan Hong had previously found a map related to that thing, but it was obtained by an unknown kid. He followed someone over, wanting to intercept the map. But he lost his life." That person's voice was very soft, so small that only the middle-aged man could hear it.
When the middle-aged man heard that, he frowned deeply. "So that means that kid is also a powerful martial artist?"
"Yes. Although we don't know exactly who it is, he can kill Shangguan Hong. His strength is definitely not simple. Shangguan Hong had those special martial arts that were given to him by the master. Ordinary Heavenly Masters wouldn't be able to threaten him. It could be seen that the person who killed him was probably a very powerful Heavenly Master. I suspect that the person who killed him is Lord Li!" The man's words were shocking.
The middle-aged man raised his eyebrows. He couldn't believe it, but after thinking about it carefully, Master Li completely matched the characteristics of the person who killed Shangguan Hong.
Heavenly Master Stage, unknown where he came from.
"Then how did Lord Li get that map?" The middle-aged man asked curiously.
0
The man hesitated and answered, "This... This subordinate does not know. The Shangguan Family was in charge of investigating the map. However, after so many years of investigation, there was only a little bit of news recently. It was still not completely certain. Only Shangguan Hong had one clue, but his death was too sudden. The news hasn't been confirmed yet."
