Chapter 425: Chapter 420: The True Master!

“Shwick!”

With a swift movement, Shen Yan pulled out the not-so-solid bamboo stick, the sharp end slicing across the man’s vulnerable neck, leaving a line of blood tinged with a fishy smell.

The man narrowly dodged, his heart still thumping violently.

Once Shen Yan made her move, she wouldn’t let him leave alive.

With a single strike, Shen Yan knew where he was from.

He had come from the neighboring country, a style only someone who had spent years in that nation would subconsciously employ.

Every move Shen Yan made was filled with murderous intent.

The man dared not underestimate her.

The two exchanged punches and kicks under the silent night sky.

Their noise-canceling gear had been knocked off. The man had no choice but to engage in a physical brawl with Shen Yan!

His stamina drained rapidly; he began to feel fatigued, but Shen Yan’s movements grew faster and more ruthless, far beyond the capability of an ordinary person!

Her stamina was monstrous!

Shen Yan twisted the bamboo stick with one hand, stabbing its blunt end deeply into the man’s body repeatedly, leaving one blood hole after another.

The man’s heart area was bleeding profusely, and the cut on his neck felt intensely burning.

His body riddled with wounds, yet Shen Yan remained as clean as she was at the start.

Even her clothes were untouched by dust.

Looking at the cold woman before him, the man’s eyes hardened.

He took out a poisoned needle and fitted it onto his middle finger; a short, dark needle was on the ring’s tip. As soon as Shen Yan saw this little gadget, her gaze grew even colder.

Such a device could harm both the victim and the user.

The opponent had put this on with the intention of mutual destruction.

Seeing no reaction from Shen Yan, the man sneered and increased the intensity of his attacks.

“Just a desperate struggle.”

Shen Yan commented abruptly, lunged forward swiftly, grabbed his hand, and twisted.

“Crack!”

“Swoosh!”

The bones in his hand broke, the poisoned needle slashing deeply across his throat, blood spraying forward. Shen Yan dodged quickly, her hand only getting stained.

The man died with his eyes wide open in discontent.

“Plop!”

The corpse fell into the running water and sunk downstream.

Shen Yan emerged from the withered reeds, across the river the moon reflected in the center shattered by the rippling water!

Her gaze suddenly swept in a direction, among the backlit shadows, two boats slowly emerged from within the reeds.

The people on the boat had seen her, but from a distance, they could only see her silhouette.

From the side, Shen Yan spied a different profile and aura from these shadows.

It was an unmistakable presence.

This kind of outline and aura, she had seen in people like Chi Boyuan.

Before that, she had also spotted it among undercover agents.

Shen Yan immediately left the area without pausing.

“Pull him up!”

Far away, Shen Yan faintly heard someone ordering to retrieve the man she had thrown down.

Shen Yan stopped for a moment, hesitated, then quickly left the place.

What did it matter if they retrieved him? They couldn’t trace who was responsible, and upon investigating the man’s identity, they would uncover a lot, she had essentially removed a menace for the people.

Shen Yan looked back and thought for a moment, but hadn’t left any trace on that man, so she left reassured.

After several rounds, she circled back to the original spot nearby and answered the tenth call from Xiao Zhao.

Xiao Zhao was almost in tears.

She thought Shen Yan had been kidnapped. Thankfully, she was fine!

“Splash!”

The diver dragged the person from the river onto the shore.

“The person is already dead, face purple, poisoned in addition to having their throat cut,” said the man who pulled the person out, wringing out his clothes as he spoke.

The few people on the boat followed him ashore, turned on their flashlights, and shone them at the fatal wounds.

The cut on the neck was conspicuous—it was indeed a cutthroat.

“We saw the figure just now, very slim, long hair, probably a woman.”

Why use “probably”?

Because nowadays, not only women but also men kept their hair long and were slim.

“Captain Chi, should we investigate?” someone asked the tall man who was wearing gloves and examining the corpse.

This person was none other than Chi Boyuan, who was assigned to the south.

“Check this person’s information,” Chi Boyuan’s brows were deeply furrowed.

They had just watched helplessly as someone committed murder and disposed of the body, yet they couldn’t catch the culprit in time.

“Captain, I’ve checked already, no traces were left, the opponent is an expert!” Extremely skilled in avoiding their surveillance methods!

From another boat, another similarly well-built figure disembarked, walking over as the crowd made way for him.

“Why is it him.”

Chi Boyuan immediately looked at him, “You know him?”

“Yes,” the well-built figure squatted down, opened the dead man’s clothing, and revealed a substantial wound near the chest. He pulled out a broken bamboo stick embedded inside: “He dealt with every power in Myanmar, a troublesome expert. Didn’t expect him to die here by a bamboo stick. Even without this fatal strike, the bamboo stick broken at his chest could have killed him at any moment. The person who confronted him was a real expert!”

Hearing this, Chi Boyuan’s expression slightly changed, “Are you saying, now we have an even more dangerous individual here? A few kilometers ahead is a crowded area…”

Upon hearing this, everyone’s face turned pale!

“Since nothing else happened, the opponent is likely only targeting such individuals. ordinary people won’t get hurt,” the squatting man stood up, a smile tinged his handsome face, “Captain Chi, I really appreciate your support this time.”

Chi Boyuan glanced at the body on the ground, said, “It’s what we ought to do, you guys have worked hard!”

“Six years…” he muttered, “After six years I’ve returned to my place again.”

Chi Boyuan looked at the man in front of him with an indescribable complexity.

“I will stay here a bit longer, you can take a break here.”

“My records are here, naturally, I need to go back and finalize everything,” he smiled faintly again.

“Good, we’ll continue to protect you back to your original unit.”

Hearing Chi Boyuan’s words, he opened his mouth, wanting to refuse, then swallowed the words he had at the tip of his tongue.

“Yanyan, about tonight’s incident…”

“Don’t let Uncle Liu know,” Shen Yan waved her hand, “Go back to your room and rest.”

Xiao Zhao nodded and returned to her room.

Shen Yan returned to her room, stood by the window, and looked at the bustling traffic outside, thinking about the events that had just transpired.

This was just the first.

There would be a second one.

Shen Yan was considering whether to stay for a few more days, waiting for their appearance.

No matter how many of them came, she wouldn’t let them go!

After a long time, Shen Yan turned around and opened the suitcase that no one was allowed to touch, pulled a black bag from a pile of clothes, and placed the bones inside onto the desk.

Shen Yan just sat there, quietly watching, until dawn when she finally stirred, packed everything away, climbed into bed, and closed her eyes.
