Chapter 159: Conquering A Woman’s Heart

By the time Ryan stepped his foot on the central courtyard of the house, several assassins were already targeting him from all sides! Their attacks almost seemed flawless.

They were so fast and accurate!

Their killing aura was already spreading when they revealed themselves. If it took a human form, it might have enveloped and choked Ryan. The assassins from the Lacroix family made killing as their everyday snack. And today they would feast on the corpses of these intruders.

They had closed Ryan's escape route, leaving no gap for him. If the intruder was an ordinary person, they would have peed themselves in the spot.

However, Ryan suddenly emitted a murderous aura that was much stronger than the assassins combined. Even the sky could be shaken by it. Under the threat of his murderous aura, the assassins stopped charging at Ryan and took a step back.

Hiding in the dark, some of them shuddered and some even wanted to escape. They all gazed at Ryan with terrors. They had to find a golden opportunity to kill their opponent this time.

But, who was this intruder, really?

He was still young, but why was his killing aura so strong?

Little did they know that this intruder was one of the 12 Aesirs codenamed Nergal.

Nergal the God of War!

He once killed 1000 people ordered by the Italian mafia in just one night with his fists alone!

Ryan stepped back, while Kane continued to follow him. When Ryan reached the center of the courtyard, he stopped and said, "Come out,"

But there was no response at all.

"Come out or I'll force you out one by one," Ryan coldly said.

Then he turned his head towards the building to his left. He glared at the person who was blending with the tile. Feeling Ryan's sharp gaze, that person couldn't stand it and jumped out. He landed exactly a few steps in front of Ryan.

Kane then looked at the person who suddenly landed. That person was the bearded old man who was staring at Ryan and him with a sharp gaze.

Ryan didn't look back, instead his gaze fell on the warehouse to his right. He could see a man hiding behind the stacks of unused stuff.

The person already felt he was caught, so he decided to take his sword and catch up with his friend who had also shown himself.

After that, Ryan turned to the garden which had a large rock in between. An old man with a walking stick appeared from behind it. His eyes were filled with shock.

"One more," Ryan said in a cold tone.

He didn't move at all. His right hand suddenly formed a gun and fired his internal power towards a secret door that was closed by the ground at the right angle behind him. His inner power easily hit the assassin within it. Soon the secret door opened and the assassin gathered with his friend.

There were four assassins in total!

It could be said that these four assassins were the last and strongest defense of the Lacroix family. Even though they looked old, their strength was no joke.

Kane was seen scratching his head when he saw the four elders. He felt that he was weaker than them all.

The four assassins then stared at Ryan while the man remained still. For a moment, the six of them just stared at each other.

Finally, the person carrying the walking stick broke the silence, "Who are you? Why are you breaking into this place?"

Ryan casually answered, "You don't need to know, I just came for Irina,"

Coming for their young lady? The four of them immediately looked at each other.

Today, their young lady suddenly came home. In the meantime, she was being lectured by their master. Judging from their young lady's face, a massive storm seemed to have raised in this family. So they still doubted whether this person came to help or target their young lady.

For a moment, the four people were silent and exchanged glances. Finally, the person who appeared from the ground said, "No, we can't allow you to meet the young lady. Go on and return to your place,"

"Nothing can prevent me," Ryan said casually.

"You're such an arrogant kid." The assassin on the left got angry when he heard Ryan's answer. He threw the sword he was holding toward the man! The blade miraculously became many knives flying toward Ryan's direction!

Along with the knife attack, the other three assassins also moved. One of them moved in a low position, aiming for Ryan's leg. He had intended to make him jump. The other two moved towards Ryan's side as they were tasked with blocking his escape route.

The man who threw his sword also lunged at Ryan.

The battle of life and death began!

Ryan made his move. His entire body had been energized by his internal power, especially his right hand. With that hand, he managed to grab one of the knives that shot towards him and deflected all the knives heading for him. However, this was all part of his plan that he had arranged to dash towards the assassin aiming for his leg!

The assassin then frowned and immediately dodged. Ryan was already lunging forward and moving towards the other one on his left while the other two were still trying to charge.

With his left hand, Ryan blocked his opponent's attack and his right hand caught his opponent's wrist.

The assassin was taken aback, he quickly delivered a punch before he could be harmed. Ryan also reacted quickly, he released his grip and threw his punch at his opponent's fist. The two fought fiercely, but the middle-aged assassin couldn't bear Ryan's strength and was blown away.

However, Ryan didn't seem to want to let the guy go. He chased after his opponent after he made him bounce off the ground. This made the other assassin on his right side happy. Ryan had his back to him. He quickly raised his hand and hit the back of Ryan's head.

However, he felt a killing aura from the corner of Ryan's eye. His super sharp gaze gave off a sense of horror and danger.

The assassin then gritted his teeth and continued his attacks. However, Ryan swiftly jumped and landed behind him.

It's over!

He was shocked, his feeling that told him it was a trap was true.

However, it was already too late. When the assassin wanted to react, Ryan had landed his fist on his chest, making his consciousness immediately disappear. He flew away with wide eyes, vomiting blood while his bones broke down.

Now that there was only one remaining assassin, he was about to escape but Kane blocked his way.

"Move!" He shouted. He had already accumulated his speed and momentum and raised his fist that contained tremendous power!

Kane's face still looked flat, he had no intention of avoiding it. The assassin shot out like an arrow and hit Kane's stomach strongly!

Kane did not remain silent when he was attacked. Without needing to use any techniques or shift his feet, he simply raised his right hand.

It turned out that their two fists were facing each other!

The two blows met and produced a large explosive force. The assassin was blown away several meters from where he stood. The colliding power was truly tremendous.

However, his eyes looked terrified when he saw Kane. Kane only moved half a step back!

That fat guy sure was strong!

On the other hand, the person who dodged Ryan's knife attack lunged back at him. He was helped by his wounded friend.

The two looked like wolves that were charging at their prey. But still, this didn't frighten Ryan in the slightest bit. One of the assassins released his palm strike and slammed it into Ryan's chest. However, what Ryan didn't know was that there was a poisoned arrow from beneath his long sleeve.

To keep Ryan from seeing it, another assassin jumped on top to distract him. Combination attack was very useful for taking care of lone opponents.

Ryan just stared coldly at the two of them, he did the splits perfectly and managed to dodge both of them. In an instant, he turned his body on the ground and managed to get behind them.

His hands turned into claws and tightly gripped one of them. Without giving any chance, Ryan immediately broke his opponent's legs.

Cries of pain immediately echoed in everyone's ears. However, this person was still trying to target Ryan. But the sneaky attack was useless for him. Ryan just dodged it and broke his arm too.

Curled up in pain on the ground, Ryan finished him off by kicking him up and down.

It all happened quickly, so when his friend landed and looked back, he saw his comrade badly injured. The sight absolutely made his blood boil with anger.

"Bastard!"

His anger had reached its peak, he really wanted to skin Ryan alive.

Ryan still had a flat expression while maintaining his attacking posture. Not waiting long, they both lunged at each other.

However, Ryan suddenly felt lazy and let his opponent run towards him. The two of them exchanged blows and Ryan managed to parry them all. At one point, Ryan saw a gap and managed to hit his opponent's chest, making his opponent quickly fall to the ground.

Ryan then looked at Kane. His younger brother was able to dominate his opponent easily. After exchanging blows for three times, the opponent was no longer able to keep up. But Kane still felt his blood boil and hoped for an even more fierce battle.

"Come on, stand up!"

Kane really was thirsty for blood. He ran with his big belly and slammed it down. The assassin had to avoid him or he would be killed. Kane then chased the assassin for a while.

"Did you claim yourself as a man? Don't run away and face me!" Kane shouted while chasing the assassin.

Ryan didn't care and walked toward the house. But by the time he walked forward, several security guards had arrived.

They were all shocked, the main four assassins of the Lacroix family were lying down and one of them ran away in fear while being chased by an elephant. Then they looked at Ryan and saw the man had a cold expression in his face.

How could this intruder win over them?

Seeing Ryan stepping forward, everyone subconsciously took a step back. 

No one dared to stand in his way!
