Chapter 866 - Bounty Hunting Mission With Handsome Reward!

“Top bounty hunting mission: Slay John Doe from Huaxia!”

“Reward: 300 million dollars!”

This mission appeared strikingly in the Black Market of killers, which was a forum gathering all the underground forces in the world.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

No sooner had the bounty hunting mission come out than it instantly drew the attention of all the underground forces in the world, for it was a huge sum of reward!

The world’s economy was slack now. 300 million dollars was a great deal!

The killers from all over the world went wild because of this.

However, they were curious about John Doe, whom they had never heard of before. How could there be such a high reward on his head?

Countless killers began to frantically search for John Doe’s information!

Fortunately, the bounty hunting mission had already provided them with John Doe’s current coordinates, so no one was anxious to find where he was. They only intended to search for his information to see if he could be easily killed!

In Southern Yue, while Ruan Changhong was looking at the killers who had gone crazy because of his bounty, he could not help but smile viciously.

He naturally knew what the Heaven Treasure on the island was and how valuable it was.

There were still a few days left for the Cyan Dragon Lock to mature, so he was certain that John Doe would not leave the island in these days. That was why he gave away his coordinates directly.

“You’re doomed, John Doe!” Ruan Changhong’s pale face looked ferocious.

Not long after, the killers, who were highly efficient, attained John Doe’s personal information.

“John Doe, the person who has risen in Huaxia Wulin in the past year, recently defeated Yun Yangzi, who ranked first on the Wulin Genius List, and was promoted to be the top expert among the younger generation in the Huaxia martial arts world.”

When they were reading this, quite a few killers frowned.

“Huaxia people? And he’s even a martial art practitioner in Huaxia. It’s not easy to deal with people in Huaxia Wulin!”

“Since John Doe can rise rapidly in Huaxia Wulin, it means that he must have something extraordinary.”

“It seems to be a difficult task!”

After learning about John Doe’s background, they began to scan through his strength evaluation.

John Doe: A-level!

Seeing this level, most people were astounded.

John Doe was indeed not an ordinary man. He was indeed worth 300 million dollars!

In this world, there were only a few people who could be assessed as A-level by the underground killer organization.

Although there was an S level above A level, the only ones who had killed A-level targets were the world’s top three killers so far.

All three of them had the experience of fighting alone with A-level targets.

Except for them, no one could slay an A-level target.

However, they were not worried. The killers were simply killing people.

Now they were not in ancient times when people could only use cold weapons in combat, but an era when hot weapons were exploited.

Killing A-level targets didn’t necessarily entail strong capacity.

Sometimes, a bomb could solve numerous problems.

Although they were intimidated by John Doe’s strength assessment, many people were seriously lured by 300 million dollars. They began to prepare for winning this bounty!

300 million dollars was enough for most people to live a carefree life!

Anyway, if they couldn’t kill him, they could still leave. Besides, if they didn’t give it a try, how could they know that they couldn’t do it?

They made up their minds to do it.

Many people looked at the coordinates and sneered.

On the island, nothing happened for an entire night.

Early the next morning, the sun rose from the surface of the sea, and the whole island was bathed in golden light.

With the assistance of the Cyan Dragon Lock, Fang Qiu’s strength was eventually recovered after resting for a night.

The moment he opened his eyes, he happened to see the stunning view of the sunrise at the seaside. He could not help but smile.

He looked around.

He Gaoming and the other eight people were still guarding the surroundings. To ensure Fang Qiu’s safety, the nine of them didn’t sleep all night. They had been cautiously watching everything around them.

Fang Qiu stood up and said to He Gaoming and the others, “I’m all right now. Thank you for watching out for me.”

“Master, what are you talking about?” He Gaoming suddenly relaxed. After remaining vigilant for the whole night, he was exhausted. He said with a smile, “You’re my master. Of course, I have to look out for you.”

“Yes, Senior John Doe, this is what we should do.” The others also nodded with a smile.

Fang Qiu nodded with a smile and said, “Thank you. You guys can take a rest first. Leave the rest to me.”

“Okay.” The nine people didn’t hesitate. They immediately nodded and found their own places to sit down and rest.

Fang Qiu was standing next to them and waiting for the nine people to sit cross-legged with their eyes closed. Then he walked straight to the gathering place of the other Huaxia martial arts practitioners.

On a grass with few trees in the center of the island, all the Huaxia martial arts practitioners were gathered here, and everyone took care of each other. Because they had been suppressed by the people of the Southeast Region several times before, they didn’t have enough sense of security if they didn’t gather together.

Seeing that Fang Qiu had fully recovered, everyone looked at him in awe.

The shock caused by John Doe last night was tremendous.

Now that they thought about it, they were still overwhelmed by amazement.

“Guys.” Fang Qiu looked at everyone. He felt it necessary to tell them his speculation and the danger that was yet to come.

Hence, he said solemnly, “If I guess right, the fighter launching the raid last night was sent by the top expert in Southern Yue named Ruan Changhong. Since he failed to kill me last night, there will likely be a second wave and even the third wave of his attack. He may not stop until the Heaven Treasure on the island fully matures!”

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded with a stern expression.

What John Doe said was highly probable.

It was clear that the people of the Southeast Region were aiming at the Cyan Dragon Lock.

Even when Ruan Changhong was knocked down by John Doe, he once tried to destroy the immature Cyan Dragon Lock. It could be imagined how obsessive Ruan Changhong was about the Cyan Dragon Lock and John Doe. He had even mobilized a fighter here. No one knew what he would send next time. Maybe it would be a tank, a rocket, or something like that.

Thinking about it, they found that this man was outrageous!

Fang Qiu continued, “So, I can’t guarantee your safety. Besides, it’s no good for you to stay here. Instead, you’ll put yourself in danger. So I suggest you leave as soon as possible and don’t get involved again.

“If you have strong forces and people backing you up, go back and report to the forces behind you quickly. Tell them the situation here and tell them—no one can bully Huaxia people. Whoever does it will be our shared enemy!

“Our country has been cut off for too long!”

When they heard that they should go back, many people began to hesitate.

Should they simply leave like that?

Leaving here at this time would mean that the Heaven Treasure ranking the tenth would have nothing to do with them.

But as soon as this idea came up, they couldn’t help laughing at themselves. They wouldn’t get a chance to obtain it even if they stayed.

Who would be able to get it since a powerful figure like John Doe was here?

Even if they have the courage to fight for it, they wouldn’t be able to get it.

Of course, compared with the struggles and feelings of people from many small forces, those who had great forces and powerful backgrounds quickly understood what Fang Qiu meant.

“Thank you, Senior John Doe.” One of them stood up, cupped his hands to thank Fang Qiu, and then left directly.

People of other forces also stood up and thanked him before leaving.

They knew very well that there was no point in staying here.

It was impossible for them to snatch the Heaven Treasure from John Doe. Fighting with him was of little use. On the contrary, they would disturb John Doe.

They also needed to tell the forces behind them what had happened here, especially the appearance of the 10th Heaven Treasure and John Doe’s amazing arrow!

Soon, more than half of the hundred people had left.

There were only a dozen left.

Among them, there were two acquaintances.

One of them was the sturdy man who had made a righteous speech for Fang Qiu last night. Although he looked vulgar and like a rough man living in a mountain village at first glance, he was upright.

The other one was the man who made a breakthrough after Fang Qiu tapped one of his meridians before. Last night, this middle-aged man was the second to come out. Although he was not as strong as the sturdy man, he was not much different. Moreover, he looked particularly heroic, although he was nearly 40 years old.

Fang Qiu didn’t seem to be familiar with the rest of the people, for they didn’t leave him with a deep impression.

Noticing that these people were not leaving, Fang Qiu turned to look at them in confusion.

“Don’t look at me. I’m not leaving.” The sturdy man touched his head and stated firmly, “I will repay you for your kindness. You helped me make a breakthrough. I have to return the favor by staying to help you. So you don’t have to worry about me. I can die, but I can’t owe you a favor!”

“You’ve already returned it yesterday,” replied Fang Qiu.

“Not enough!” the sturdy man said directly.

Fang Qiu smiled and didn’t say anything more. Then he glanced at the others questioningly again.

Everyone nodded as they looked at him.

They all firmly declared that they would stay, and they would not hinder Fang Qiu.

“Okay! Thank you all!” Learning that these people were determined to stay and help him, Fang Qiu gave them a smile.

They were all chivalrous martial arts practitioners!

Fang Qiu was moved. Since they were treating him kindly, he would naturally repay it.

“Come over here and tell me all your doubts during your cultivation. I’ll help you solve them.”

All of a sudden, the eyes of the dozen people lit up. They were all overjoyed.

Staying to help actually earned them such a benefit.

Therefore, they all gathered around and asked questions actively.

Fang Qiu also calmed down and sat in front of everyone, helping them to solve their problems one by one.

Time flew by as he was resolving people’s doubts.

He Gaoming and the others also woke up from their rest. When they saw the scene in the distance, they didn’t make a sound and quietly walked over.

They also sat down cross-legged beside Fang Qiu and listened patiently. Occasionally, they would ask Fang Qiu some questions they had encountered during the cultivation.

After a whole day, everyone benefited a lot and exclaimed that they had gained a great deal of advice.

They were safe and sound for a day and a night.

“It’s coming!” The next morning, when everyone woke up and wanted to continue to seek advice from Fang Qiu, he suddenly raised his eyebrows and turned to glance at the sea outside the island.

Everyone immediately became alert and turned their heads to have a look.

Far off in the distance, a ship suddenly appeared!

A cruise ship was slowly approaching the island.

From a distance, they could see some westerners on the cruise ship. It seemed that they were traveling.

Seeing the people on the island from a distance, the westerners on the cruise ship waved at them in surprise. After slowly approaching the island, they also anchored the cruise ship on the coast of the island and walked down from the ship.

In addition to the leader, there were more than a dozen sailors on the cruise ship.

They were all westerners.

“Hello, my dear friend.” The leader with blond hair and freckles came up. He reached out his hand to Fang Qiu and asked in native English, “Are you the locals on this island? Could you give us some freshwater? We’re running out of water!”

Fang Qiu suddenly smiled and asked, “Don’t you have better skills to hide your power? Aren’t you going to strike right now?”

As the man heard him, his face suddenly stiffened!

“Whoosh!” Knowing that he had been seen through, the westerner did not hesitate. He immediately raised his hand, and a poisonous needle shot out from his sleeve and was rushing toward Fang Qiu in front of him.
