However, the most important thing for him now was to find himself in the heart of those he cared for.
While people were enjoying the scenery and taking pictures, a group of people dressed all in black suddenly appeared.
Nothing was left to be seen other than their eyes, they looked like the ninja assassins on TV. Their arrival certainly took everyone by surprise, it was clear that they didn't come here to enjoy the scenery.
"What are they going to do?"
Everyone was wondering about what made these mysterious figures suddenly come. At the same time, some of them noticed the sharp weapons hidden under their clothes. Their menacing aura sent chills down everyone's spines, it seemed that offending them would be tantamount to looking for death.
Ryan was still enjoying this beautiful moment with Irina and Ivanka, then suddenly, he felt something strange. He turned his head and realized the people in all-black.
In an instant, Ryan's heart clenched.
"You two, get up quickly," Ryan said to Irina and Ivanka while the two were half asleep. When she heard her brother-in-law's loud voice, Ivanka was a little irritated. But when she saw Ryan's serious face, the girl felt there was something wrong.
Irina already gripped Ryan's hand, the incident with her abduction returned to her mind.
Ryan could feel the fighting power of his opponent this time was strong, almost as strong as the one in the Orla bar. However, he was sure that they were three times stronger than the one he faced at that bar.
It could be said that they had planned this attack when he was alone with Irina and Ivanka.
At this moment, the two opposing sides were engulfed in a powerful killing aura. The people around them already felt a heavy and critical atmosphere. Would they kill each other here?
The number of people in black was increasing every second, now they had more than 50 of them. Each was a martial artist and their killing aura was extremely dense.
Everyone had their own unique weapon, and quite unfortunately for their opponent, they all had sharp weapons.
Ryan just glared at them, and at this moment, several people wearing flashy clothes were seen in the very back row.
One of them wore a bra shirt while chewing gum and picking his nose. Even though he looked like a fool, he had a very strong presence.
According to Ryan's analysis, they were all the elite martial masters from the Gods and Half-blood list. But it seemed that there were some people who had not yet entered the ranking list of the world's martial experts. Things like this were very natural, they did have strength but they hadn't shown themselves to the world yet so they didn't have a history of fighting. So apart from the four existing rankings, there were still many strong people who didn't have any lunge in the martial world.
The man named Father Raphael of the Vatican was an example. Since he was the Vatican's secret weapon, he was not on any list. However, even someone like Ryan didn't dare to face Father Raphael one on one. To be honest, Father Raphael was still holding back when he fought against Yodai.
After all, this world was really wide and big and many of the surprises that dwelled in it were still yet to unfold.
Apart from this list of martial arts masters, a list that's a little more extreme existed— the Assassin list. This list was judged by the ability of the assassin starting from their killing technique, removing their traces, trapping their targets, and many more. And that dumb-looking man was one of the top levels in the world of assassins, his code name was 'Stygian Blade'.
Stygian Blade was ranked 10th in the world assassin, he took a job to kill Ryan none other than because of its prize.
Not only him, a man in his 60s with a long white beard standing next to him also took part in this ambush for the same reason. Each breath he took was equal to inhaling and absorbing the essence of the earth. This way, his body became much younger and stronger.
The third person with the same aura was a woman. She dressed like a pirate and even had a parrot on her shoulders.
Obviously these three people had a different aura and energy from the ninjas in black. However, Ryan could feel that there were 5 others who had the same aura as the three among those dressed in all-black.
All of his opponent's gaze fell on him while he was sitting with Irina and Ivanka.
"Brother, did they come to harm us?" Ivanka was truly terrified, she had never been in a situation like this.
"No, they came to take my life," Ryan shook his head then stood up. "Ivy you and your sister need to get out of here quickly and hide."
"I don't want to! I want to be with you, brother!" Ivanka quickly caught Ryan's hand. Irina herself felt that this situation was the same as the dreadful incident she had experienced before. Without realizing it, a tear fell from the corner of her eyes.
Ryan then turned to Irina and said to her, "Darling, believe me, take Ivanka away from here. I'll take care of them alone and meet with you later,"
After saying that, Ryan walked over to the crowd.
The other climbers were already staring confused at this incident. Was this a movie shoot? But why didn't they receive any prior notification?
"Are you Ryan?" Stygian Blade was still chewing on his gum.
"I am," Ryan replied casually. "I don't know who you are, but if you mess around, be prepared to die."
"Don't take this personally," Stygian Blade then spat at him. "We are only working for our clients."
Ryan then looked at everyone with the thick murderous aura around them, he then noticed a figure dressed in luxury at the very back.
Seeing that figure, Ryan frowned. "So you're behind all this?"
He should have guessed it, but he thought that his opponent wouldn't bother him anymore. Indeed, Ryan should have known that the man would not rest before avenging his dead son who died in his hand.
The mastermind behind this was Nicholas, the head of the Kruger family from Batavia.
"Do you think you can hide behind that old freak all the time?" Nicholas said in a cold tone. "I've been waiting for this moment for a long time to finish you off!"
When she was about to run with Ivanka, Irina was surprised when she saw Nicholas's figure. "Uncle, what are you doing here? Aren't our families friends?"
Nicholas' cold eyes stared at her and then he laughed. "Friends? How dare you guys still consider us friends after you killed my son? If we were friends, why did you kill him?"
Irina gritted her teeth and stepped forward. "Uncle, this is all my fault so don't involve Ryan in our family problems. Let him go,"
"Don't worry, none of you will go away alive!" Nicholas said in a cold tone.
Ryan frowned. "You want to kill my wife?"
"Kill her? No, it looks like you misunderstood. I just want to kill you. But her..." Nicholas snorted coldly. "I'm going to make all my men rape her and make her nothing more than a lump of meat that even a dog won't even want to touch!"
All the climbers were already scared and started to leave this place, the atmosphere at this mountain peak had turned heavy and uncomfortable. Not to mention that the shine from the swords and knives made them even more certain that there would be bloodshed.
Both parties fell silent for a moment, then Ryan broke the silence. "Do you think your men are enough to kill me? You can try it,"
When he said that, everyone dressed in all-black and the other killers frowned. Stygian Blade returned to chewing a piece of gum while smiling at Ryan.
The pirate woman drew her sword and the old man with white beard relaxed his muscles and was ready to attack.
Nicholas' face was already smiling broadly. "I want to see if you can still smile like that when you're turned into a corpse. And don't hope that old man will help you again!"
Ryan frowned, he knew what Nicholas meant.
Seeing his reaction, Nicholas felt happy. He wanted to kill Ryan for a long time, and now was his best chance.
"You know why I know that your grandfather couldn't help you this time?" Nicholas' eyes were completely cold. "Because I was the one who leaked the location of the ruins to them."
At this time, Ryan was finally able to put together the puzzle that had been haunting him.
"Nothing can save you today," Nicholas' killer gaze shot his foe like an arrow, he wanted his dead son to be in peace soon.
