Chapter 388: Chapter 386: Intense Rain Pear Blossom Needle
"Everyone, don’t panic! Group together, back-to-back, in a circle, and let’s see how he can ambush us now!"
As soon as this suggestion was made, everyone’s eyes lit up, and they quickly gathered together.
One solid back pressed tightly against another.
Feeling the warmth from behind, for a mont, their hearts were significantly cald. The panicked group of people, four or five in number, stood back-to-back forming a circle, guarding against Qin Hao’s ambush from every direction.
The sky was completely dark, with the night so pitch-black that one could not see their hand in front of them. Only a few lonely stars overhead faintly reflected the tiniest glimrs on the lake, close to the limit of human eye perception.
However, everyone present was a skilled professional, with sharp senses. Although it was dark, they could make out the rough outlines of their surroundings.
On the silent path by the lake, there was no one in sight. The lush weeping willows on either side cast down thousands of slender branches, resembling demon’s tentacles in the vast darkness, possibly ready to pull them into the abyss at any mont.
After they ford their formation, an eerie silence fell around them, and for a mont, everyone could clearly hear the sound of their own and others’ breathing and heartbeat.
The man who first suggested they form the formation, seeing that Qin Hao had indeed not appeared again, gathered his courage and continued to encourage everyone:
"How about it? This way he won’t be able to ambush us, right!"
"Brothers, don’t be afraid. He just pretends to be mysterious and ambushes us when we’re not paying attention. He doesn’t have the guts to confront us directly!"
As he finished speaking, everyone’s frantic thoughts stabilized quite a bit. Just as the man finished speaking, a voice rang plainly behind him.
"Your heart is beating a little fast!"
Hearing this, he retorted angrily, "Nonsense, who wouldn’t be nervous at this ti? Stop talking! Everyone, stay alert and pay attention to the surroundings. Don’t let him ambush us again!"
After he finished speaking, the comrade whose back was pressed against his own smirked disdainfully. The man then realized sothing was wrong.
This voice, why so unfamiliar? It even sounds very much like that guy’s voice from earlier!
As the thought ford, the hair on his back instantly stood on end. Just as he was about to jump away, a flash of cold light passed behind him, and a thin line of blood appeared on his neck.
Qin Hao’s silhouette gracefully retreated two steps, easily dodging the blood spurting from the body.
"Relying on a comrade to watch your back, do you really think it’s reliable? Fool, how do you know that the comrade behind you won’t stab you in the back?"
His voice resounded mockingly once again, and just like that, he disappeared into the crowd like a strange breeze. When the man first suggested forming a circle back-to-back, Qin Hao had already moved closer and pressed tightly against him.
After Qin Hao finished his kill, the rest quickly figured it out with a little thought. Suddenly, a chill ran up from their heels to the back of their necks.
After all, when even the comrade behind you is so unreliable, and with Qin Hao’s ghost-like, elusive skills, fear welled up in each of their hearts. They quickly distanced themselves from the people behind them, every one of them as skittish as startled birds, utterly terrified.
At this point, Qin Hao’s patience was almost exhausted. He looked at the motley group in front of him, with a slight smile on his lips, and said, "Well, the token is on the ground. Go pick it up; isn’t it the treasure of your dreams?"
Upon hearing this, their hearts were filled with bitterness. For a mont, they finally understood what Ren Tiangao had said earlier.
"This is a treasure that you can never touch in your lifeti."
Indeed, it was truly untouchable -- truly untouchable!
Seeing they didn’t respond, Qin Hao snorted coldly and instantly produced countless silver needles in his hand.
"Since you’ve all seen the Nightmare Iron Order, all of you can die now!"
As he spoke, the silver needles in his hand poured down like a torrential rain, wildly flying towards the crowd.
This move was indeed a lost art for countless years —
Intense Rain Pear Blossom Needle!
But in Qin Hao’s hands, the Intense Rain Pear Blossom Needle transford into acupuncture needles.
One hand to save lives, one hand to kill. The na Ghost Doctor is terrifying indeed!!
After the storm of silver needles swept through, the night returned to tranquility. A gentle evening breeze blew by, quickly dispersing the faint sll of blood into obscurity.
Qin Hao took one last look at the scattered corpses on the ground, then reached into the crowd’s midst to retrieve the Nightmare Iron Order from a still-warm hand.
Now was not the ti to reveal his identity; after all, the real show was yet to co.
A mocking cold smile erged in Qin Hao’s eyes as his gaze penetrated the dense forest, directly targeting the courtyard of the Wolf Fang Manor. At this mont, it seed as though all those so-called underground power bosses in the small courtyard were rely his playthings, to be toyed with at his will.
Qin Hao put away the Nightmare Iron Order and strolled leisurely towards the courtyard.
anwhile, inside the courtyard, in an underground chamber. Six bosses sat tensely around a small round table, with exquisite cold dishes and warm fine wine on the table, but no one had the appetite to eat.
This midnight snack was just a formality, and these six bosses belonged to the Xiao Family’s forces and were the sa ones who had sent people out to intercept Qin Hao and seize the token.
The air in the chamber was oppressively stifling, and everyone was silently waiting for the results. But since losing contact with their subordinates an hour ago, there had been no word for the entire hour.
Such a bizarre situation weighed heavily on the bosses’ hearts. After all, the forces they sent out were the elite of the elite. Even if the token wasn’t acquired in the end, these elite forces absolutely could not be lost!
As ti ticked away, outside the small building door above the basent, Qin Hao and Ma Dazhi’s figures appeared.
The Xiao Family’s six factions had wisely chosen to lodge together. When Qin Hao and Ma Dazhi appeared, the sentry at the door imdiately beca alert, and a shadow promptly leaped out of hiding.
"Vice Gang Leader Ma, what brings you here at midnight, is there sothing urgent?"
As he spoke, so security personnel also unveiled their presence. The small building seed to be heavily guarded, but Qin Hao knew it was just an empty bluff, a show of false bravado.
