Chapter 1076 Midnight Assassination Attempt
Later that night, after eating dinner with the Tian Family, Yuan returned to his room.
Inside his room, Yuan practiced the Soul Nourishment Array that Huang Chen had taught him.
Golden array symbols filled the room, and Yuan could feel his soul strength strengthening very slightly.
A few hours into the night, when it was slightly past midnight, Feng Yuxiang suddenly said, "Young Master, there's an expert nearby, and he's spying on us."
Still focused on his array symbols, Yuan casually said, "I am aware. Let's just wait and see what he's planning on doing first. Don't come out. I don't want to alert him."
"I understand."
Unbeknownst the Assassin Mao, his presence had already been noticed by his target.
'A mere child. I will finish this in a minute and leave.' Assassin Mao suddenly consumed a pill, which altered his appearance to look exactly like Tian Yanyu.
After making sure that there was nobody near Yuan's room, he approached the door and knocked on it.
Yuan stopped whatever he was doing and went to open the door to find Tian Yanyu standing there.
And without saying a word, Assassin Mao entered the room with a seductive smile on his face.
"Miss Yanyu? What's wrong? Are you still worried about the Lin Family? I'm telling you, it'll be fine." Yuan said to her with a gentle smile on his face.
Assassin Mao laughed inwardly, feeling quite gleeful about how well his plan was working.
He then placed his hands on Yuan's shoulders before guiding him to the bed.
"Oh? What are you doing?" Yuan asked her as he laid on the bed, looking a little nervous.
Assassin Mao, still with Tian Yanyu's appearance, placed a finger on his own lips and made a quite shushing sound.
"Shhh…"
"Ah… I see…" Yuan's nervous smile became filled with excitement, and he closed his eyes.
"Go ahead. Do whatever you want."
It was at this moment Assassin Mao retrieved a dagger from his spatial ring and stabbed it towards Yuan's chest where his heart was located.
"DIE!"
Assassin Mao shouted when the tip of the blade reached Yuan's chest.
However, almost as though he'd struck steel, the blade halted right on top of Yuan's clothes.
Yuan slowly opened his eyes and spoke in a calm voice, his gaze completely tranquil, "This wasn't what I had in mind, Miss Yanyu."
'Shit!'
Assassin Mao had no idea what had just happened and couldn't comprehend why he couldn't penetrate Yuan's skin with his Heaven-grade spiritual treasure.
However, it was clear to him that his target was still alive.
Assassin Mao suddenly released his cultivation base, filling the room with the aura of a 5th level Spirit King.
He then lifted his dagger into the air and plunged it down for a second time.
However, just like the last time, his dagger was stopped by Yuan's skin.
