78: Chapter 078: Money Can’t Buy Your Life!
The sight before him nearly made Andrew’s jaw drop in disbelief!
This kid had actually leapt from the top of an eighty-meter tall building over to here!
Even more astonishingly, these two buildings differed in height by about thirty meters!
This kid fell down from a height of over thirty meters and seemed to have taken no harm!
Andrew, who had always been in the Dark World, sensed danger immediately!
Therefore, without any hesitation, he directly pulled out a Colt from his waist and fired repeatedly at Lionel Yeager!
One bullet after another whizzed through the sky toward Lionel Yeager!
However, as these bullets exploded in his direction, Lionel mobilized the True Qi within his body, his entire body trembling!
A Golden True Qi Shield enveloped Lionel Yeager!
These bullets hit the True Qi Shield, making clear impact sounds like striking an iron-cast wall!
Andrew yelled in surprise, getting ready to continue firing.
But, the second Andrew started firing, Lionel Yeager moved!
A muffled sound of impact echoed!
Andrew felt as if he had been hit by a train, directly thrown backwards, falling over ten meters away; the gun also fell to the side!
And Lionel Yeager appeared where Andrew had stood just a moment ago, slowly retracting his foot.
Holding his chest, Andrew looked at Lionel Yeager in fright, and tremblingly asked in broken East Nation language: “Are you…
are you human or a ghost?”
Lionel Yeager chuckled indifferently, and then walked towards Andrew step by step.
Andrew screamed, immediately jumped to his feet, bearing the pain in his chest, drew a dagger, and charged at Lionel Yeager!
The moment he neared Lionel Yeager, Andrew directly swung the dagger at Lionel Yeager’s chest!
Lionel lifted his right hand and grabbed hold of his wrist mid-air, then squeezed hard!
Andrew gave out another cry of agony, writhing in pain as his wrist was directly crushed!
Immediately, Lionel gave another kick, sending him flying out again!
Andrew was once again thrown more than ten meters away, several ribs in his chest were broken, causing him to grit his teeth in pain!
He didn’t have time to think about the pain in his body anymore, he reached out to grab the gun that had fallen nearby.
But, just as he extended his hand, Lionel stood beside him and stomped on his hand!
Andrew screamed pitifully, the bones in his palm were all crushed and blood was spreading unrestricted.
Lionel Yeager looked down at Andrew, his voice heavy, “Tell me, who sent you to kill me?”
Andrew’s face was pale white, sweat was pouring down his forehead, he managed to speak arduously: “I don’t know.”
Lionel Yeager stretched out his right hand, grabbed Andrew’s throat, and lifted him up.
His right hand continually tightened, and he said coldly: “Are you going to tell me?
If you don’t, I will kill you right now!”
Andrew’s face turned red, he gasped for breath: “I genuinely don’t know, I accepted the bounty from the darkweb.
On the darkweb, all the bounties are published anonymously; no one knows who publishes them.”
It was clear to Lionel Yeager that the man was not lying.
He frowned and asked: “What is the darkweb?”
Andrew replied: “The darkweb is a platform built by the Dark World, all things that can’t stand the light of day exist on the darkweb.
On the darkweb, only your imagination is the limit, not what the web can accomplish.
Assassination bounties are just one of the services on the darkweb.”
Lionel Yeager fell silent all of a sudden.
I never expected such a platform to exist.
What exactly is this Dark World?
Also, who exactly is trying to kill me?
Is it the Jordan Family, the Weil Family, Lewis Family or someone from the Four Great Merchant Guilds?
Andrew pleaded, “Mr., as long as you can spare my life, I can give you money!”
He was genuinely regretful now.
If he had known earlier that the target of the Bounty Order was so terrifying, he would never have accepted this mission, even if he were to be killed.
For such a terrifying character, a bounty of 30 million dollars is far from enough.
Now, he could only hope to persuade Lionel Yeager with money to save his own life.
Seeing that Lionel Yeager didn’t respond, Andrew continued, “Sir, I have a lot of money, I can give you 50 million dollars!”
Lionel Yeager stared at Andrew coldly and said, “Not everything can be bought with money, including your life…”
Lionel Yeager’s right hand swiftly clenched!
Andrew’s neck was twisted and he died instantly!
Lionel Yeager casually threw Andrew on the ground, then channeled his true qi, creating a Golden True Fire, burning him into a puddle of blood.
For those who want to kill him, Lionel Yeager would show no mercy.
Especially this kind of guy who specializes in killing for money, no one knows how many lives he has taken.
So, when killing such a person, Lionel Yeager felt no guilt.
Standing on the rooftop, Lionel Yeager looked afar with a cold face.
Although he didn’t know who wanted to kill him yet, one day, the other party would reveal themselves.
Also, the Dark World mentioned by this guy, sooner or later, he would step into it and see what kind of world it is.
Afterwards, Lionel Yeager made a light jump, landing on opposite building and disappeared into the night…
In a car by the side of a street eight hundred meters away.
Julia Stewart was sitting in the car with her heart beating rapidly, very nervous.
She never expected that she would encounter a sniper on her way back.
This is something that only happens in movies and TV shows.
But now, it was happening in real life.
Lionel Yeager has gone to find the sniper now, and she didn’t know if Lionel Yeager would be in danger.
The sound of knocking on the car window sounded.
She was startled and quickly looked out of the window to see Lionel Yeager smiling at her.
She finally breathed a sigh of relief, then unlocked the car window and door.
Lionel Yeager opened the door and got into the car.
“Lionel Yeager, did you find that sniper?” Julia Stewart asked eagerly.
Lionel Yeager helplessly said, “Ah, unfortunately, that guy got away.”
He didn’t want to tell Julia Stewart about what had just happened.
If she knew that he had killed someone, she would be frightened.
Julia Stewart didn’t think much about it and asked again, “Is there really someone trying to kill you?”
Lionel Yeager nodded.
“Who exactly is trying to kill you?” Julia Stewart asked worriedly.
“I am not clear about that yet.” Lionel Yeager shook his head and continued, “But don’t worry, one day I will find that person.”
Seeing that the look of worry still lingered on Julia Stewart’s face, Lionel Yeager comforted with a smile, “It’s ok, don’t worry.
In River City, the person capable of killing me hasn’t been born yet.
Let’s go, let’s go home.
