After dividing up the tasks, Lin Fan couldn’t help looking at the two girls with concerned looks.
After a moment of silence, he said, “Take care of yourselves and make sure that you don’t do anything that seems dangerous. If you’re in any danger, don’t worry about the people you’re saving and just get to safety.”
Compared to these two girls that he loved, Lin Fan cared less about these villagers.
He was willing to save them, but that didn’t mean that he was willing to risk his life or the lives of his companions for them.
The two girls looked at him with touched looks and they both came forward to give him a kiss separately before heading off.
Lin Fan just stood there, watching them head off for a bit with a lost look on his face. However, that didn’t last long as his expression suddenly turned cold and sharp.
He might not have been as ruthless as this before, but after almost losing someone he loved because of his own negligence, he knew that he couldn’t remain the same way. It was better for others to die than the people that he loved…
Not to mention that these people in the village were scumbags.
He still remembered what the men and the boss had said about Lala and Xiao Yue.
Since they were scum, there was nothing for him to worry about. He could just let go and kill them all.
Once he had this mentality, Lin Fan gave himself a nod as if he was confirming something with himself and then he jumped over the log fence in front of him without a single sound. As soon as he jumped over the fence, the entire village appeared in front of him.
It was a good thing that there wasn’t a moon tonight, so the area was quite dark.
Lin Fan didn’t have a problem since he could channel spiritual energy into his eyes to help him see in the dark, but it was a different story for the guards on the wall. They could barely see the ground in front of the wall itself, so naturally they were unable to see Lin Fan.
Not to mention that there was a large difference in cultivation between the two sides.
Lin Fan was already in the Seventh Qi Gathering Realm while most of the guards on the wall were either in the Pseudo Qi Gathering Realm or didn’t have any cultivation at all.
Lin Fan really was confused by the question of how these people had the guts to challenge the Fire Eyed Snake that was in the Second Qi Gathering Realm with this level of cultivation. However, that really wasn’t important to him.
The guards were scattered out along the wall and they weren’t close enough to see each other, which made it very easy for Lin Fan to act.
After he landed on the wall, he slowly made his way behind the guard that was nearby.
The guard had no idea that he was there and when he came close enough, in one swift motion, Lin Fan grabbed the guard from behind and snapped his neck before he could even make a sound. At the same time, Lin Fan had also covered the mouth of the guard with his hand to ensure that there was no sound at all.
The guard didn’t even know what happened as his vision suddenly turned dark and he breathed his last.
After killing this guard, Lin Fan didn’t waste any time at all as he put the guard against the wall, making it seem like the guard was sleeping on duty. Then after that, he headed for the next guard on the wall.
This village itself wasn’t that big and if Lin Fan ran at full speed, it was easy for him to go around the walls in around ten minutes. However, Lin Fan took his time, making his way around the entire wall in around half an hour.
But of course, he wasn’t just walking along the wall during this time.
During this time, he had been snapping the necks of the guards one by one and then putting them against the wall just like he had done with the first guard.
This was his first task, to take care of the guards on the wall to make sure that nothing unexpected would happen and to make sure that no one would be able to sneak up on them.
Then after he finished off the guards, his next task would be to head to the village chief’s house to capture the village chief.
Through Greeny’s mosquito puppets, he had seen that the boss of the group had left the village chief’s house. He had taken most of the men with him and they had headed off to the only bar in the village.
Even now, he could hear the sounds coming from the bar.
So that meant that the village chief had been left alone in his house, which made it perfect for Lin Fan.
It was clear that the village chief was someone who was rather high up in the bandit group, so he would have plenty of information. So Lin Fan wouldn’t hold back and capture the village chief so he could have a nice conversation with the village chief.
He silently made his way over to the house and then snuck in through the window on the second floor.
The room that he snuck into seemed to be some kind of study which Lin Fan immediately knew was a jackpot. The village chief seemed like he was managing things for the bandit group, so there would certainly be useful documents here.
But right now, he wasn’t able to take them since the village chief was still in the house.
However, it was easy for Lin Fan to find the village chief since he still had Greeny’s mosquito puppets in the house.
After linking senses with the mosquito puppets, he found that the village chief was currently drinking and complaining to himself on the first floor. Most of his complaints were about the boss, but some of them were also about the men that he worked with.
It was clear that this group didn’t have any loyalty, they were just working together for gains and out of fear of the boss.
This made Lin Fan start to wonder just who the boss was…
Still, he had something to do first, so he shook those thoughts out of his mind.
Without making a single sound, Lin Fan made his way to the first floor and silently came up behind the village chief.
The village chief was already halfway through the barrel of wine that he had prepared for himself, so he was already very drunk. It wasn’t hard at all for Lin Fan to sneak up behind him and it was even easier for him to subdue the village chief.
All it took was a single chop to the back of the head.
Once the village chief was out, Lin Fan brought him to the cellar which should have been the best sound isolation room before hitting him in the face with a ball of water.
The village chief sputtered when his face was hit with water. He was still a bit drunk, so it took him a while for his eyes to adjust, but when they did, they suddenly opened wide in shock as they stared at Lin Fan standing in front of him.
The village chief just sat there tied to the chair in silence for a bit before asking, “What’s going on here?”
Lin Fan just said with a faint smile, “What do you think is going on here?”
The village chief didn’t feel any warmth coming from that smile, instead he felt a chill run down his spine. But he knew that he couldn’t let Lin Fan notice anything, so he pretended to not understand what Lin Fan was talking about, “Sir mercenary, what is going on here? Why am I tied up?”
Lin Fan gave a sigh before saying, “I’m not in the mood to play with you nor do I have the time, so you should just tell me everything already.”
The village chief was about to say something, but Lin Fan suddenly flicked his hand and something blood red flew through the air, along with a spurt of blood that fell to the ground.
The village chief was in shock at first, but then he cried out in pain.
Lin Fan had just cut off one of the village chief’s toes from his exposed feet with a single flick of his wrist.
The village chief’s heart filled with fear after the pain started to subside.
Lin Fan just stood there with a smile as he asked, “Tell me who your boss is and where you’re keeping the poison that you were planning on feeding us.”
The village chief’s eyes and mouth opened wide in shock after hearing this. The look on his face made it seem like he couldn’t believe what he had just heard.
The village chief slowly recovered from his shock and stuttered, “How, how do you know, know about that?”
Lin Fan flicked his wrist again and another bloody toe flew through the air before he said, “I’m the one asking the questions here. Answer them or you’ll be feeling even more pain.”
The village chief screamed out again, but the pain subsided faster since there was already adrenaline flowing into his foot. Once the pain slowly subsided, he looked up at Lin Fan with fear, like he was looking at a demon.
Lin Fan didn’t care at all as he waved the dagger in his hand, threatening the village chief with it.
The village chief’s heart sank when he saw this and he knew that he had no other choices.
After taking a deep breath, he was about to start telling Lin Fan what he wanted.
But before he could, Lin Fan heard a few faint moans coming from one of the doors in the cellar.
