A lucky cat fell from the sky.

Chapter 106 Assassin

After cleaning up the Nan family's house, Wu Cheng returned to the campus.

Back on the campus of Longqiu University, Wu Cheng felt somewhat out of place.

Seeing many students playing basketball or dating at the university, Wu Cheng felt that he was far behind them.

Or perhaps it's because one's mindset has changed, and one's goals have become higher.

Looking at these students now, I actually feel a sense of superiority.

He suddenly thought of Su Qian'er. He had had the chance to return the handkerchief to Su Qian'er before, but he missed it several times, and the handkerchief had been in his pocket all this time.

He only remembered that he had to return the handkerchief to Su Qian'er when he accidentally took it out during the last visit to the tomb.

He made a special trip to the campus this time and waited for Su Qian'er at the pavilion in front of Apartment 7.

It has to be said that without the spies from those gangs, running into Su Qian'er again will only be a matter of luck.

However, Wu Cheng believed that sincerity would bring miracles, and that if he waited here, a miracle would eventually happen.

At the same time, a man named Jiao San was also observing Wu Cheng with binoculars not far from the pavilion.

He was an assassin hired by the Hao family to kill Wu Cheng; his strength was at the martial arts level.

As a martial artist skilled in assassination, Jiao San felt that if he made a move, Wu Cheng would have no chance of surviving.

However, the habits he had developed over the years made Jiao San very cautious, and he was waiting for the right opportunity.

Once the time is right, he will rush towards Wu Cheng and deliver a fatal blow.

Wu Cheng, however, was wholeheartedly waiting for Su Qian'er, hoping for her to appear.

Wu Cheng was completely unaware of the deadly threat lurking around him.

Jiao San held his breath and moved to a new observation point closer to Wu Cheng. He looked at Wu Cheng through the binoculars again, but Wu Cheng was still completely focused. He was clutching the handkerchief in his hand, rehearsing what he would say to Su Qian'er.

Jiao San observed for a while longer and felt that Wu Cheng was completely unprepared. If he made a move at this time, he could easily take Wu Cheng's life.

He slowly took out a blowgun.

Jiao San was originally a hunter in the forest, and he was used to using blowguns to hunt prey.

One advantage of this blowgun is that it is silent. The arrow is coated with poison, and as long as it touches the prey, the prey will be paralyzed and at the mercy of the hunter.

With the blowgun in the mouthpiece, Jiao San took a deep breath and blew hard, sending a black streak flying towards Wu Cheng.

However, the black light stopped in mid-air.

Time stood still.

Wu Cheng looked around and found that everything around him was frozen in place.

What's happening here?

I clearly didn't activate Time Stop, so how did time suddenly stop on its own?

"Master Meow, please give me a reasonable explanation."

"You idiot, you almost died, you know that?" Jin Wanliang shouted. "Someone used a blowgun on you, but by the time I noticed, it was too late to warn you, so I had to activate time stop myself."

"Can you also stop time?" Wu Cheng asked, then realized that his question was a bit redundant.

The system and Jin Wanliang are one entity; whatever the system can do, Jin Wanliang can do too.

“Of course I can activate it, but the price is very high,” Jin Wanliang said. “If I activate Time Stop, the price is that time will stop being sold until you upgrade.”

"What do you mean?"

"That means that during your Iron VIP membership, you will no longer be able to use time reversal or time stop to fight enemies."

"This..." Wu Cheng was dumbfounded, completely dumbfounded.

You should know that he has just introduced an effective combat tactic: time stop combined with sharp knuckle dusters, a one-hit kill.

The whole thing took less than three seconds; even an ordinary martial artist wouldn't stand a chance against it.

However, time stop is no longer usable.

From now on, when fighting enemies, we'll have to fight them head-on?

Wu Cheng was quite annoyed. Taking advantage of the time freeze, he took out his brass knuckles, put them on, and slapped the face of the assassin who had prevented him from using time freeze until it was covered in bruises.

Time was restored, and Jiao San died just like that.

He didn't even know how he died. He clearly blew out a blowgun, but the blowgun missed and he was beaten to death instead.

Wu Cheng searched Jiao San's body for a while and found a check for thirty million, a bottle of poison, and the blowpipe and blowgun were also quite good items.

He put all these things into the cat house, but then he thought that leaving the guy's corpse outside was not a solution, so he directly recycled the corpse. He found that the corpse of a martial artist was actually quite valuable. After recycling it, he was given 10 gold coins.

Moreover, this is probably due to the cap on Iron VIP members; otherwise, they could definitely give more.

The system is even more powerful! Could this become the best way to destroy evidence in the future?

Thinking of this, Wu Cheng suddenly slapped himself twice.

Since the blowpipe killer's body can be recycled by the system, then Ma Yiming's body can be recycled as well. If I had just handed Ma Yiming's body over to the system for recycling back then, I wouldn't have gotten myself into such big trouble.

He was extremely annoyed and in a very bad mood.

What made him even angrier was that he had forgotten to take a picture of the assassin, so he didn't even know who had ordered him to assassinate him.

Although it's possible that Long Qiu has a grudge against the Hao family, is it really the Hao family?

Previously, only the Hao family had a grudge against him, but that might not be the case now.

Even sending assassins to kill someone doesn't necessarily mean they have a grudge against you; it could be for personal gain.

By taking over the Lu family business, I've essentially taken away the livelihoods of many people. Don't these people resent me?

Therefore, it is quite possible that these people sent assassins.

The problem is that he no longer has the ability to stop time, and he is only at the peak of the Martial Apprentice level. At the same time, he is in the open, while the assassins sent to kill him are all in the dark. Their strength, tactics, and the time and place of their appearance are unknown.

This is really quite troublesome.

It seems that I should not go out for the time being. I should stay at Xiaoqin's old house and cultivate quietly. The only way to improve my strength is to strengthen myself. Without strength, everything else is meaningless.

Wu Cheng stayed in the old house for half a month. During this time, he did not waste his time. He used the decomposition function to finally decompose the golden thread vine completely and obtained a lot of golden thread. As long as these golden threads are woven into clothes, they will be a protective armor that cannot be cut by knives, cannot be penetrated by water, and cannot even be lit by fire.

Wearing this armor would greatly increase his ability to face various assassinations. However, there was one problem that troubled Wu Cheng quite a bit: this was just thread, and he didn't know how to turn the thread into clothing.
