Frontier Army Warrior

Chapter 1081 Sudden Death

He could strike the victim's vital point from behind, leaving no trace on the body. Ordinary people would not be able to find the cause. Even the most famous doctor in the city could only say that the victim died of a sudden illness.

Moreover, it was broad daylight, and in his heavily guarded house, there was no way he could have imagined that Duan Jingqiu would be murdered by outsiders.

Duan Yi is a decisive and reliable person who never leaves anything unresolved.

Once a decision is made, there is no more hesitation.

Duan flipped over, head down, feet up, hooked onto the eaves, let his body hang down, gently pressed down on the carved window sash, and with a light push, loosened the wooden bolt on the window sash.

In an instant, the two mahogany windows opened silently, and the scene inside the house was clearly seen by Duan.

Duan Jingqiu sat with his back to the window at a large desk, looking down at the account books on the desk.

A gentle breeze drifted through the window, softly ruffling her hair, without disturbing Duan Jingqiu, who was lost in thought.

Duan Yi loosened his feet, placed his hands on the window sash, and silently flipped into the room, landing easily on Duan Jingqiu's back.

The series of actions were carried out without making a sound, and even Duan Jingqiu, who was standing right next to him, did not notice anything unusual.

Duan Yi was very pleased with himself. Not to mention these ordinary people, even martial arts masters in the Jianghu would have to wait to die in front of his superb lightness skills.

Facing Duan Jingqiu, whose waist was slender and whose beauty was exquisite to the core, Duan Yi showed no emotion. He used one hand to pinpoint the Tianzhu acupoint on the back of her neck.

If you strike this spot, internal energy will penetrate and instantly cut off blood supply to the brain, causing the person to faint first, and then die from the continuous loss of blood supply.

Even the most experienced coroners couldn't see the trick.

The number of people who have died under Duan Yi's methods has exceeded double digits, and not a single one has been wrong.

He thrust his finger forward, channeling his inner strength.

When the finger was halfway through, a strange change occurred.

Suddenly, Duan Yi heard something fly through the wall with a bang. Although he couldn't feel what it was, he knew it was flying towards him.

Without time to think, the body reacted naturally, and the finger, which was halfway through the poke, turned to meet the foreign object in mid-air.

Duan Yi's finger skills are also his proud weapon. His fingers, enhanced with internal energy, appear thin but are incredibly sharp.

He was confident that he could deflect any hidden weapon with his fingers.

Unexpectedly, when his fingers touched the flying object, he immediately felt a strong force travel through his fingers to his body.

Two fingers, as sharp as steel blades, were struck by a dark, heavy object. Without any resistance, the broken fingers, along with the fist and arm that couldn't withstand the weight, slammed into him again.

Then, Duan Yi's body was hit by a heavy object and tilted to one side, his feet leaving the ground, and he slammed into the wall of the room with a dull thud.

The whole house shook.

Startled, Duan Jingqiu shuddered and turned in astonishment to look at Duan Yi, who was huddled in the corner.

At this moment, although Duan Yi had not fainted, his face was ashen, his breathing was unsteady, and he was trembling all over, unable to stand up.

"You...who are you?"

Without his powers, Duan Yi appeared as an ordinary middle-aged man, dressed in plain gray cloth, with some gray hair and beard, and possessing nothing of value.

Right now, Duan Yi just wants to figure out what was that thing that was thrown at him.

Unfortunately, he didn't see that the heavy object, after knocking him away, quickly disappeared.

He only caught a glimpse of something dark and resembling a short stick.

Duan Yi was unable to answer Duan Jingqiu's question. He felt as if his whole body had fallen apart, his muscles and bones were not under his control, and he could not exert any strength. He could not even stand up, let alone leave this dangerous place.

It's a pity that his martial arts skills were ruined by some unknown thing, and even biting his teeth wouldn't help.

Hearing the commotion, the butler immediately pushed open the door and poked his head in.

"Miss, is there something you need?"

Because the noise was unusual, the housekeeper, without asking permission, rashly peeked in to check the situation.

Duan Jingqiu was also confused. She stood up and pointed to Duan Yi in the corner of the room.

"This person..."

Before she could finish speaking, she noticed that the window behind her was wide open, revealing a patch of blue sky and white clouds.

The butler also saw Duan Yi's miserable appearance and the open window, and immediately understood the problem.

Someone entered through the back window with the intention of harming the young lady.

"Guards! Guards!"

The butler shouted loudly.

Duan Jingqiu took a few quick steps, went from behind the desk to the door of the next room, pushed the door open, and ran over.

Next door was the room where Lin Feng was staying. He was sitting cross-legged on the bed, resting with his eyes closed, his face calm, as if he knew nothing about the outside world.

His dark, broken sword lay quietly on his lap.

"Mr. Kikawa...can you hear me?"

Duan Jingqiu rushed to the bedside and grabbed Lin Feng's arm, shaking it.

Lin Feng opened his eyes and looked at Duan Jingqiu blankly.

"Miss Duan, what did you say?"

"Someone...someone has come in."

At this moment, several burly men rushed in. They were the guards of the Duan family. They came to the corner of the room, frowned, and looked at Duan Yi, who was huddled in the corner, at a loss for what to do.

Duan Yi remained motionless, still in the same position, as if his bones were broken and he simply couldn't move.

The butler waved his hand: "Take him away and take him to the torture chamber to find out what happened."

Several guards stepped forward, grabbed Duan Yi's limbs, and lifted him out.

With a muffled groan, Duan Yi was quickly dragged out.

Seeing Duan Jingqiu's bewildered expression, Lin Feng couldn't help but reach out and pat Duan Jingqiu's head, smiling slightly.

"Alright, we didn't lose anything, so go ahead and do your business."

Duan Jingqiu was smart enough to know that Lin Feng was behind it, because his own bodyguards and guards certainly didn't have such means.

She felt inexplicably calmer and tried to grab Lin Feng's hand, but missed. She then pouted.

"Mr. Kikawa, you really are..."

After speaking, he straightened up, instantly regaining his composure as a shopkeeper, took a deep breath, and turned to walk out.

After Duan Jingqiu left the room, he gently closed the door.

Lin Feng then stroked the broken sword with his hand and sighed softly.

"Is he really her biological father? Why is he still arguing with his own daughter?"

Then he turned his attention to Duan Yi from earlier. This guy was tough; despite the weight of the broken sword and the support of his own true energy, he hadn't been killed.

This indicates that the person is highly skilled and is unlikely to be an unknown individual.

Duan Jingqiu's father probably paid a high price to hire him.

Lin Feng couldn't understand why such a prominent family valued their reputation more than their own lives.

The fact that he always entrusted most of the family business to Duan Jingqiu shows that he values ​​and loves this daughter very much.

Unfortunately, Xu Qi of the Thirteen Horse Caravan ruined his wonderful life.

Fortunately, Duan Jingqiu was independent from a young age and possessed the qualities of a strong woman, so she was not defeated by this blow.

If it were an ordinary woman, faced with such a situation, even if her father didn't intervene, she wouldn't be able to withstand the pressure and would hang herself from a tree in the southeast.

Lin Feng is now figuring out how to use the gentlest means to get Second Master Duan to acknowledge Duan Jingqiu's existence and hand over the Duan family business to his daughter to manage.
