The battle was still going on on Si Yiyan’s side.

Standing beneath the dim, yellow street lamp, Si Yiyan seemed as if he were standing in a shower of golden rays. His eyes were like dark pools of ink and determination was written all over his face. His golden suit made him look shiny and gilded. He stood proud like a god and looked incredibly domineering and stern as he hollered menacingly.

That was the dominance belonging to Rex.

“Come out and show your face! It’s time this cat-and-mouse game came to an end.” Si Yiyan formed a gun using his fingers and aimed it at the assaulter nonchalantly.

“Rumor has it that Rex’s patience is like a predator waiting for its prey in the bushes. What’s the matter? Have you run out of patience?” aid a crisp voice that sounded in the dark.

Not bothered at all, Si Yiyan cocked his head sideways and said, “I still have some patience. I’m afraid that you’re the one whose patience is running out.”

It was if Rex’s air gun was tailing him like a shadow, and it would follow him wherever he went. He finally believed that no one could escape Rex’s aim.

He was filled with a sudden hopelessness.

Moments ago, he watched his sworn brothers being gunned down by Si Yiyan, who took away several lives with the pull of his trigger. He had also eroded the willpower of the remaining survivors.

Whoever he aimed his gun at would die!

One action of his was enough to make his opponent let his guard down!

It was actually a piece of cake to kill the assaulter. All he had to do was to pull the trigger.

However, he had been aiming the gun at him continuously like a cat chasing a rat, instead of just killing him.

He was filled with anger and resentment.

However, he had no way to resist the temptation of living.

Si Yiyan said coldly, “Earlier on, you were moving at a speed of 15 meters per minute and I could aim at you accurately thrice in a minute. However, you can only move six meters per minute now and I can aim my gun at you accurately at least ten times in a minute. So… do you think there’s a point in running away?”

His tone was stern and nasal. “Rex, don’t you enjoy playing the cat-and-mouse game? I shall satisfy you.”

Remaining calm and composed, Si Yiyan said with a straight face, “The average person takes about 16 to 20 breaths per minute. Right now, you’re already breathing 40 times per minute. If this goes on, you’ll end up dying due to lack of oxygen because of how quickly you’re breathing.”

The voice hollered. “Rex, what do you want!?!”

Si Yiyan smiled and remained silent.

He suddenly sensed that something was amiss. His desperate will to live made him lose his rationality and all he wanted was to run away. He had lost the collectedness and composure that he ought to have as a soldier, as well as the rationality that he had always been proud of. He had also lost the bravery of a man!

Si Yiyan wanted him to die without pride or dignity.

As soon as he realized that, he dashed towards Si Yiyan like an arrow.

He immediately pointed his gun at Si Yiyan.

At this moment, Si Yiyan pulled the trigger, after which the bullet darted out.

Before the assaulter could even pull the trigger, the sound of a gunshot sounded in the air, making him shudder uncontrollably. He then lowered his arm.

Si Yiyan said calmly, “No one has ever fired a bullet faster than me.”

He wanted to berate the man for being delusional!

However, he had no choice but to admit that Si Yiyan was indeed stating facts.

He had developed those marksmanship skills after several life-and-death battles. He knew how fast he could be.

Bearing with the pain, he suddenly pounced onto Si Yiyan.

Si Yiyan stood rooted to the ground quietly without even frowning.

He grabbed the assaulter’s wrist and tightened his grip, after which the sounds of his bones cracking sounded in the air. It was bizarre and hair-raising.

“No one has ever dared to point a gun at me before.” Si Yiyan sneered, his hand appearing long and slender beneath the light from the streetlamp. His fingers were beautiful and exquisite like jade. It was as if they were God’s perfect creation. The black gun looked extremely terrifying. Si Yiyan pressed a contraption and within just a few seconds, his gun became metallic.

“You…”

Si Yiyan lowered his head and stared at the bullet hole on his left arm. “The fact that you know how patient I am, means that you know me very well. Since you know me so well, how could you not know that you can mess with anyone except me?”

I… was clearly aiming my gun at the woman just now!

Could it be…

Si Yiyan continued, “Because, someone once said that I’m petty and I love holding grudges against others. That’s actually very true. However, that person forgot to say that I’ll take revenge wherever it’s due.”

He could not tolerate the fact that the assaulter had aimed his gun at Wen Xinya earlier on.

After swallowing his saliva, he said, “I don’t have the intention to kill you, but I received an order to kill that woman. I was aiming at her just now.”

They were ordered to retrieve a document from Rex and kill the woman beside him. Out of those two tasks, killing Wen Xinya was the mandatory one.

Si Yiyan grinned, appearing daunting and mysterious underneath the lights. “Okay, I shall tell you the reason that I’m killing you so that you won’t die without knowing why.”

The man shivered.

Si Yiyan smiled and asked rhetorically, “Do you know how I got this scar?”

The man shook his head.

Si Yiyan continued, “I got it because I leaned forward and shielded her from the bullet when you shot her!”

His pupils contracted and dilated rapidly as he thought to himself, So I’m getting fooled and manipulated before my death, all because I shot that woman?

“You’re very lucky to have died in my hands.” Si Yiyan gripped his golden gun tightly as it glistened menacingly under the bright light. It was refined, sleek, opulent and splendid.

Si Yiyan rarely put his guns to use.

However, he fired a bullet this time.

The man had a look of dejection on his face. Everyone knew that Rex would rarely shoot anyone unless he was out to kill!

It was as if he were collecting his prey.

Bang!

The sound of the gunshot filled the air in the night. The crossfire came to an end.

“Move his corpse to the Duke Moville’s Residence.”
