But now, the One-Eyed Dragon was scared. He endured the pain in his knee and did his best to run. Just when he entered the garage, Qin Feng came up behind him and kicked him over. His face smashed into the ground and his front teeth were shattered.
On the outskirts of the villa, eight of his men still stood guard to prevent Qin Feng from escaping, although if he were to have approached any of them, they would have been no match for his fighting skills. The One-Eyed Dragon had been careless. He shouldn’t have stayed on the ground floor, but rather stayed above and left his men in front to protect him.
However, he often left things to luck. In this case, he’d thought that Qin Feng would have chosen to try to preserve Green Snake’s life over fighting. He didn’t expect that they would fight together or that Qin Feng would have so efficiently taken out his men.
It was true the One-Eyed Dragon’s men had excellent military training, but none of them had the impressive hearing, eyesight or reflexes that Qin Feng brought into every battle, and those were attributes that could only be trained to a certain point.
One of Qin Feng’s best skills was his ability to fight in the dark. With this ability, he was able to easily take down the six mercenaries that stood between him and the One-Eyed Dragon and turn the situation around.
A converted Ford F150 was parked in the garage and the One-Eyed Dragon had pulled himself toward the car, seemingly trying to get in a standing position. Qin Feng watched him struggle, relaxed. Even if the rest of his men poured into the garage at the same time, Qin Feng was confident that he had the resources to conquer them all.
Green Snake had come to the door and let out a quiet moan because of the pain. Qin Feng anxiously said, “Don’t come in here. Go wait in the room. I’ll be back soon.”
Then he angrily turned to the One-Eyed Dragon and slowly put his foot on his back. Then he began to press down harder and harder. The One-Eyed Dragon’s eyes began to bulge as his body was pressed into the concrete. Blood from his face pooled beneath his cheek. He struggled wildly, like a bug caught beneath a stick. He tried to lift his lower body or get leverage with his feet, but no matter how he wriggled, he still could not escape the strength of Qin Feng’s legs.
At this moment, three mercenaries entered the garage. They had been guarding the front door but had not heard any movement from inside the villa for a long time so they came to investigate the situation.
However, the men were doomed the second they turned the corner. Qin Feng had leaped up onto the hood of the F150, his submachine gun aimed toward the entrance to the garage.
The two subordinates had no time to dodge the fired bullets and were immediately hit in the head. The team leader’s reflexes were faster and he had successfully rolled to one side, but Qin Feng still was able to hit him in the leg. He hid behind the door, sending a message for help to the rest of his group. However, Qin Feng jumped off the roof of the car and directly hit the leader in the head. He died curled up in the corner.
During the commotion, the One-Eyed Dragon had gotten up and raised a pistol, pointing it straight at Green Snake who was lying on the ground nearly in a coma. “Die!” he shouted.
Bang! The sounds of the bullet firing echoed through the garage. Green Snake, startled, opened her eyes weakly.
Qin Feng had seen the One-Eyed Dragon raise his gun and he’d quickly pulled his own trigger, hitting the general in the center of his hand. The pistol flew out of his hand and blood poured out of the hole and down his arm. He screamed with pain.
Hearing the shots and screams, several of the men who had been in the yard rushed over. Qin Feng, predicting this, stepped out to meet them.
When the mercenaries saw Qin Feng, their faces filled with fear. They hadn’t expected that he was still alive.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
The four men didn't even have time to lift their guns or look at their boss before they died.
Qin Feng then slowly approached the One-Eyed Dragon, holding a blade he’d taken off of one of the fighters in his hand. The blade was 30 centimeters long and very sharp.
Qin Feng looked at the One-Eyed Dragon and said coldly, "Take out the antidote."
"You can kill me," the One-Eyed Dragon said as he reached for the pistol on the ground. Qin Feng kicked the gun away, then squatted down and slowly stabbed the blade straight through the top of the One-Eyed Dragon’s foot.
He roared in pain, but Qin Feng’s face didn’t change at all. He pulled the blade out, then sunk it into the man’s other foot.
The One-Eyed Dragon’s face went white and he nearly fainted. He had never experienced such torture.
Qin Feng did not say anything, but simply pulled the blade out of the bleeding wound. He stood up, then stepped on the One-Eyed Dragon’s bleeding hand. The injured man’s whole body was shaking from shock. He struggled, but it was of no use. Qin Feng bent down again and shoved the blade into the man’s wrist. His hand was cut straight off.
Green Snake, weakly watching this scene, was frightened. This was really cruel. They had done so many missions together and had also encountered opponents that they hated fiercely, but she’d never seen Qin Feng act with such ruthlessness.
Qin Feng did not pause. He stepped on the One-Eyed Dragon’s left hand and prepared to cut it off.
"No, no, no!" The One-Eyed Dragon had reached his limit. "Please, please," he called in a hasty voice.
Qin Feng simply said, "Where is the antidote?"
"On the team leader at the garage door."
Qin Feng found the antidote quickly. He tasted it, determined it was safe, then administered it to Green Snake.
Green Snake’s face had gone gray by this point. She looked like she’d already left the world. If she hadn’t received the antidote within the next few minutes, she would have died.
The One-Eyed Dragon took advantage of Qin Feng being distracted by Green Snake to quietly pick up the pistol on the ground and he pointed it directly at Qin Feng.
Bang!
He was too slow again. He thought he could beat Qin Feng in the end, but in this life, he never had a chance.
Qin Feng had whipped around and fired a bullet straight into the One-Eyed Dragon’s head. He collapsed on the ground, dead.
Qin Feng, armed with the knife, ran to the One-Eyed Dragon and shouted, "I knew you didn’t want to die, but today was your day! Give me Xiao He back!"
As his words fell, he cut at the body. He was in a frenzy, putting a cut here, a slash there. He took the entire left arm clean off.
Green Snake, watching this scene, hurried to shout, "Qin Feng, Qin Feng!"
"What's the matter?" Qin Feng said in an eerily cheerful voice. “Look, I cut him into pieces with a knife. Now I need to find a dog. This is what he did to Xiao He, so this is what’s going to happen to him.”
"Forget it. He’s dead. Why bother?" Green Snake stood up with difficulty, holding onto the door, and said, "He is a dehumanized beast, and we are the special combat members of China’s army. What lesson is there in this?"
Qin Feng stabbed the knife directly into the One-Eyed Dragon’s abdomen, then turned back and said, "It’s for Xiao He. Xiao He already…”
"Listen, what if he just said that to anger you? What if he didn’t actually do it?" Green Snake asked persuasively. “Forget him. He’s already dead.”
Hearing this, Qin Feng sighed. He held Green Snake and then looked at the sky. Maybe he’d already done his best to avenge Xiao He.
No, it’s not enough, he thought bitterly. The bigger enemies were still at large. Qin Feng's goal was Shark Kun. Only when the top boss was destroyed could he truly avenge Xiao He and fulfill his deepest desire.
But for now, he put those thoughts away. He still had important business to handle here.
Qin Feng lifted the weak Green Snake and carried her to his car. He drove out of the suburb and back toward his part of town. However, he didn’t want to take Green Snake to Sister Flower’s house. Instead, he found a room at the Vienna Hotel to stay in for the night.
By the time he sat on the hotel bed, it was 3:00 in the morning.
He thought about what more there was to do. He had to handle the list somehow or there would be more killings. He wasn’t worried about his personal safety, but he was tired of harm coming to those he cared about. What if the ferocious gangsters came after Sister Flower next?
Green Snake took a shower. She stood under the water for a long time and watched the silhouette of Qin Feng through the frosted glass. Her heart fluttered. Did that man really belong to her tonight?
