Chapter 129 Feast Countdown

drops.

The elevator opens.

Xia Mei held the exquisite little red leather bag, looked at the banquet in front of her, a charming smile slowly appeared on the corner of her mouth.

She stuck out the tip of her tongue, licked the corner of her scarlet mouth, made the lipstick on her lips slightly shiny, and at the same time whispered in a weak voice that only she could hear:

“The high society lights and feasts are really fascinating, and I want to experience this kind of drunkenness all day long.”

"It's time to go in, don't delay the business."

A low-pitched man's voice sounded strangely in her ears, as if he was close to her with the right words.

However, Xia Mei was the only one in the elevator.

After hearing this voice, she couldn't help frowning slightly, and said coldly: "When did my old lady miss something?"

After finishing speaking, Xia Mei stepped forward, walked out of the elevator, turned left and entered the banquet, and quickly blended into the crowd.

Those who can enter here tonight are all celebrities from all walks of life, there are many beautiful women, glamorous women, and the men are all experienced in the world and have great self-cultivation.

Therefore, Xia Mei did not attract the attention of everyone.

She picked up a glass of red wine casually, took a sip from time to time, and walked back and forth among the gathered people holding the glass.

Not long after, Xia Mei went to the central area of ​​the private banquet, chatting with people while laughing, while observing the two people in the middle who were surrounded by stars from the corner of her eyes.

The man on the left is wearing an expensive black suit. Although the sideburns and broken hair are speckled with white spots, it is difficult to hide the superior temperament he exudes.

This person is the organizer of this private banquet. His surname is Chen Mingcang. He is a legendary business tycoon with a legendary life experience.

With his experience, his status, and being the organizer, he should be the absolute center of this banquet and should be sought after by everyone.

However, at this time, Chen Cang didn't have the slightest intention of the master. Although he held his head slightly with a smile on his face, if you observe carefully, you will find that he is faintly maintaining a humble posture.

Such a posture was naturally revealed to the middle-aged man standing beside him.

Even, those celebrities around Chen Cang, most of the attention will be put on the middle-aged man, showing a more humble posture than Chen Cang, almost flattering.

But they didn't feel the slightest discomfort, let alone any feeling of being trampled on their self-esteem.

After all, there is no shame in showing respect to the Undersecretary of the Treasury.

Not to mention, this deputy minister... His surname is Fang.

Yannan's Fang.

Just standing here, Fang Wen must be the absolute center, enjoying all the spotlights.

"It's Chen Cang's honor to invite Minister Fang to this dinner today, so shall we invite Minister Fang to say a few words now?" Chen Cang raised his glass and asked with a smile.

Hearing this, everyone around immediately spoke one after another in a hurry.

"As expected."

"Today I was able to listen to Minister Fang Jinkou's words. Brother Chen's banquet is really right."

"I hope Minister Fang can teach me a few words."

…

Everyone said something to each other, and all their eyes turned to Fang Wen, their eyes were full of expectation.

At this time, "Fang Wen" did not speak immediately.

He was silently counting the time in his heart.

"Nine sixteen, less than a quarter of an hour before the agreed time..."

Qin Mo murmured to himself, while he was observing everyone at the banquet through the holographic vision in his mind.

The ones dispatched by the Gaoling Xia Clan must be S-level awakeners. Needless to say, the S-level has reached the level of Taoism and nature, and the genetic power is absorbed into the body. .

Therefore, Qin Mo can't simply use thermal imaging to judge who is from the Gaoling Xia family. He can only use his own observation, and then wait for the other party to take the initiative to make a move to expose himself.

He hasn't found any trace yet, he just locked a few suspects.

Hearing that Chen Cang actually asked Fang Wen to speak, Qin Mo couldn't help cursing a few words inwardly.

But in order not to cause abnormalities and arouse the suspicion of the Gaoling Xia family, he had no choice but to recall the painful memories of struggling in the workplace in his previous life, and deal with it casually first.

"Ahem."

Facing dozens of scorching gazes, Qin Mo coughed lightly, cleared his throat, and then slightly raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a standard smirk of a leader's speech.

"Since Chen Cang wants me to say a few words, then I will just say a few words casually tonight."

Clap clap!

As soon as the voice fell to the ground, everyone immediately burst into applause, as if Qin Mo had said something extraordinary just now.

The applause lasted for more than ten seconds before it stopped slowly. Qin Mo smiled and nodded slightly to the surroundings.

Afterwards, he continued to speak: "Then, the few words I'm going to say tonight are actually not important speeches on formal occasions, just treat them as small talk, don't be restrained, keep it relaxed.

Of course, although these few sentences are not as good as those on formal occasions, they are not particularly bad..."

Chen Cang: "..."

The rest of the people: "..."

In just three sentences, the minute hand passed a small space without a sound. It is now 9:22, and there are still eight minutes before the time to start.

Qin Mo paused for a moment, then cleared his throat, and then continued:

"First of all, these few sentences, I want to divide them into three main points.

Ah, each of these points has five key points. Let’s start with the first point of the first point.

This first little point, I think it is the most important part..."

Chen Cang: "..."

The rest of the people: "..."

One thing to say, their ears are a little numb now, and they are secretly complaining about Fang Wen in their hearts.

However, their status is higher than the mountains and the background is bigger than the sky. They still have to wear fake smiles on their faces, and the arc of the corners of their mouths is getting bigger and bigger.

The short time passed quickly in Qin Mo's nonsense literature.

At exactly 9:27, Xia Mei, who was standing on the periphery of the crowd, had her eyes flickering suddenly, holding a shaking red wine glass, and slowly moving towards the left.

As she moved her position, she snorted coldly in a faint voice.

"Heh, what an idiot, so much nonsense."

This time, there was no man's voice in her ears, but Qin Mo, who was in the center of the crowd, suddenly stopped for a blink of an eye.

He slowly curled up the corners of his mouth, already thinking in his heart.

And in the next second, there was a very abrupt sound of breaking the gate, interrupting his speech.

Click!

The dim yellow lights embedded in the ceiling flickered a few times, and then sparks suddenly appeared, and thus lost its mission.

Boom!

The main power supply of Huatianyue Building was cut off, all the lights went out at the same time, and the building fell into deep darkness.

In an instant, loud exclamations sounded one after another.

"What happened?"

"Is there a power outage?"

"How could there be a power outage in Huatianyue Building?!"

Everyone said something to each other, and the banquet was full of surprise and confusion.

Facing such an unexpected situation, Chen Cang stood up at this moment, and his steady voice sounded in the darkness.

"Everyone, maybe the power system has broken down. Huatianyue Building will be repaired soon. Please stand still and wait patiently, and don't move around."

Hearing this, the somewhat chaotic banquet gradually returned to calm.

Seeing this, a faint smile appeared on Chen Cang's face, he turned his head and said to the person beside him:

"Go out and have a look, what's wrong with it, why did Huatianyue Building..."

Suddenly, his voice stopped abruptly, and the remaining half of the sentence was stuck in his throat forever, and he couldn't come out again.

Scarlet blood slowly flowed down the corner of Chen Cang's mouth. With his last bit of strength, he twisted his stiff neck and looked down.

I saw an ordinary dagger inserted into his heart impartially, cutting off his heart vein.

"Ho **** ho..."

Chen Cang subconsciously stretched out his hand to ask for help, but the speed of life was far faster than he imagined.

Before he raised his arm, his eyes were completely plunged into darkness, and his body crashed to the ground.

Plop!

The sound of a heavy object falling to the ground rang in everyone's ears, a large amount of blood quickly seeped from the wound, and the air was filled with a pungent **** smell.

The person who was still listening to him just now had a dazed face. He looked down, and saw Chen Cang's **** face through the faint light coming in from the window.

Astonishment, confusion, fear...

Complicated emotions rushed into his forehead from bottom to top like a high-pressure water gun.

The man trembled a few times, then opened his mouth and shouted loudly: "Dead, dead, dead!"

Boom!

As the saying goes, one stone stirs up a thousand waves.

At this moment, everyone at the banquet, which was still peaceful, seemed to have turned into ants on a hot pot, and fell into madness instantly.

The huge riot broke out at a more violent speed, and hundreds of people rushed towards the exit, trying to leave this extremely unsafe **** place.

The time at this time is 9:28:47!

In the dark banquet, among the mixed crowd, a ghostly dagger suddenly appeared again, shining with a piercing cold light, aiming at "Fang Wen"'s lower back from a tricky angle diagonally behind, stabbing fiercely .

The distance between the two is less than one foot, which is almost negligible for an S-level awakened person.

The murderous aura that invaded the bone marrow seemed to have condensed into substance, coming suddenly like a storm, as if it would pierce "Fang Wen"'s spleen in the next moment.

However, at this critical moment.

A broad palm suddenly appeared, blocking the way of the dagger.

This palm is two circles larger than that of ordinary people, the skin is shining with dark golden metal light, and the five fingers carry terrifying power.

The owner of the palm is an S-level awakener of the metal element system, and possesses a powerful strength of the sixth level. He is also Fang Wenming's entourage guard.

Jingle Bells!

The metal palm and the dagger collided brazenly, making a crisp sound.

The guard of the Fang family was shocked back a few steps by the power of the dagger, and his face involuntarily became serious.

The other party turned out to be a sixth-level S-level awakener, whose superficial strength was not inferior to him, and he was holding an offensive Holy Spirit relic in his hand.

Just as soon as they fought, he knew clearly that this must be a fierce battle.

"You go first, I will kill him."

The guard said quickly to "Fang Wen", and then fully activated the genetic power in his body, and rushed forward again.

The crisp collision sounded continuously in the darkness, and the aftermath of the battle sent all the unknown people flying out.

This is the result of the two deliberately controlling their power, otherwise, they would be enough to smash the entire Huatianyue building to pieces in just one fight.

Seeing this, "Fang Wen" looked as usual, and under the **** of another subordinate, he walked towards the depths of the banquet hall.

It was said earlier that the Huatianyue Tower is actually the property of the Yannan family behind the scenes, so a safe house was reserved when it was built.

The two passed through the panicked crowd in the dark, and went around to the right side of the bathroom.

Then Fang Wen's entourage raised their hands and groped for a blank area on the wall. After a few seconds, the amplifier sounded, and a small door opened in front of them, and inside was a corridor that spiraled upwards.

"Please come in first."

"Um."

"Fang Wen" hummed lightly, stepped inside with his hands behind his back, and walked up.

After his figure disappeared, the attendants standing outside looked around vigilantly, then turned sideways and hid in the corridor, closing the secret door from the inside.

This spiral passage is bright, and there is a topaz mine embedded in the wall every two meters on the walls on both sides, emitting a glimmer of light.

The follower went up the stairs all the way, and after going around twice, there was a huge silver crystal wall in front of him. I don't know what material it was made of, but it was extremely strong.

The real safe house is behind the crystal wall, and the two of them are no longer on the eighteenth floor, but on the twentieth floor, which is even higher.

"Hoo..."

The entourage let out a long breath of foul air, and the tension just now quietly dissipated, and he felt a little relieved.

"Fang Wen" has already entered, and he needs to guard in front of the door, waiting for the support from the Yannan clan.

He reckoned that in about fifteen minutes, all dangers would be lifted tonight.

Thinking like this, the corners of his mouth could not help but slowly curl up. At the same time, he raised his arm to reveal his watch, and glanced down at the time.

I saw that it is just right now...

Nine thirty.

The real assassination operation officially begins.

After checking the time, the follower raised his head.

However, who would have thought that just as he raised his head, he suddenly saw a strange human face appearing less than an inch in front of his face!

The human face has distinct facial features, the nose and eyes are extremely beautiful, as if it is a perfect product created by God, and the bright red plump lips seem to be stained with blood, as if they will drip out in the next moment.

"Oops!"

Such a thought flashed through the mind of the entourage, and the powerful genetic power in the body surged by itself following the body's instinct.

He raised his right hand like lightning, aiming at this strange face that he didn't know what it was, he was about to bombard it.

But the speed at which he raised his arm in mid-air became slower and slower until it was completely still, and then slowly lowered it down.

"That's right, little brother, do you have the heart to beat people up?"

Xia Mei's erratic voice rang in his ears, and her eyes had changed at some point.

The two pupils seem to contain a pink starry sky, possessing some unknown magic power, which hooks the three souls and seven souls of the followers.

"No, I can't bear to..."

In the still air, a dazed voice slowly sounded.

He seemed to be in a daze, his eyes lost their vitality, and he just stared straight at the face of this beautiful woman who was close at hand.

But from his brows and eyes, it can be seen vaguely that there is a trace of struggle mixed with confusion.

Seeing this, Xia Mei immediately stepped up her efforts.

In the originally dim yellow space, suddenly dots of pink light appeared, and three huge fox tails covered with pink fluff appeared from behind Xia Mei.

The fox tails intertwined, slowly crawled from the man's back to his chest, and then strangled his neck.

"Hoo~"

Xia Mei breathed lightly on him, and then the smile on the corner of her mouth became more intense, and she said:

"Don't worry, little brother, it doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt at all."

"No, it doesn't hurt..."

There was a silly smile on the face of the entourage, and his eyes turned completely pink. I don't know what good things he saw.

The struggling look between his eyebrows and eyes has disappeared without a trace, and his body perception seems to have disappeared along with it.

The foxtail on his neck tightened little by little, but he didn't realize it, allowing it to destroy his demigod body step by step.

Click!

It was like a corner of glass was broken.

Blood began to overflow from the corner of the attendant's mouth, his whole face turned red, his eyes protruded, and he looked extremely creepy.

His life was passing by quickly, and the huge power in his body fell silent before it could be deployed.

boom.

The fox tail suddenly loosened, and the corpse lost its support, and immediately fell limp to the ground.

Xia Mei looked down at him, a strong mocking look flashed across her face.

It is normal for her to deal with a sixth-order S-level awakener so easily.

After all, after reaching the S level, there is a huge gap between each level, and the higher the level, the greater the gap.

The seventh level vs. the sixth level, the advantage is naturally on Xia Mei's side.

After killing people, Xia Mei clapped her hands, stared at the thick crystal wall in front of her, and whispered softly:

"As expected of an ancient family that has been passed down for thousands of years, even the coffin has to be repaired so luxuriously."

After that, she turned around and faced the direction of the stairs, and stood guard here instead of the dead follower Shi Shiran.

The red dress on Xia Mei is still as beautiful as blood, but...

The color seems to be three points darker than it was half an hour ago.
