Mu Feng smiled faintly, "Now I can give you a chance to go in and take those people down. If they all die by your hand, you can leave directly afterward, and I will help you resolve all your troubles. But if you die, I won't intervene."
"I need to know if those people are the ones targeting me from behind. Once you go in, there will definitely be a confrontation."
Hearing this, the Thousand-Faced Man's expression changed, his eyes filled with disbelief.
"Didn't you just say you wanted me to take action myself?"
"I've brought you here, and I've even betrayed those people. Why do you still want me to go to my death?"
"Compared to those people, my strength is negligible. In front of them, I might not even last a single move. You clearly don't intend for me to live."
Mu Feng's smile widened, a hint of mockery in his gaze. "You're right, I never intended for you to live from the beginning. Your only use has now been exhausted."
"Keeping you is of no use to me, so it's better to make you serve a final purpose."
"If you want to die by my hand, you can. I won't do it myself, but I will have the little worm in your brain eat your mind bit by bit. I believe such pain will be a profound lesson for you."
"This soul-piercing feeling will surely make you remember it clearly in your next life. In your next life, you can directly become a good person."
"After all, doing bad things comes with a price."
Hearing this, the Thousand-Faced Man couldn't help but shiver, his eyes filled with fear.
At this moment, his eyes held a sense of grievance and helplessness. He stared intently at Mu Feng, but only saw cold killing intent in Mu Feng's eyes.
If he had a chance to do it all over again, he would never have put on an act in front of Mu Feng.
But there was no regret medicine in this world, and he knew he had truly angered Mu Feng. After all, he had intended to make a move against Du Jiaojiao, one of the people closest to Mu Feng.
Mu Feng said calmly, "You already realized what your fate would be, so there's no need to struggle here. Act immediately, and perhaps I can still give you a chance. If you continue to delay and they discover you, you might not even get to choose how you die."
The Thousand-Faced Man's eyes darkened completely, then turned manic. He glanced at Mu Feng and then, without hesitation, charged into the courtyard, pulling out a thin, cicada-wing-like dagger.
Several people emerged from the courtyard. The oldest among them, an elder, frowned, his gaze sharp and cold.
"I already guessed that cooperating with someone like you wouldn't be reliable. I knew you would come looking for me."
"I just didn't expect you to come to me in this manner."
"If you think the money I gave you before was not enough, I can offer you additional rewards. Now, if you complete the task, hand Mu Feng over directly. If you fail, you will only have a dead end."
"You should know my strength. Killing you is as easy as killing a chicken or slaughtering a sheep."
As the elder spoke, he took a step forward, his aura suddenly blooming. "Don't think about talking your way out of this; I won't give you any opportunities."
"And I have only one objective, which is to see Mu Feng completely dead. I suspect you have already succeeded, otherwise, you wouldn't have come to me so frantically. Did Mu Feng cause you significant harm?"
The Thousand-Faced Man's unusual behavior instead brought a smile to the elder's face.
If he had come to him dejected, he would have been disappointed. But now, with the Thousand-Faced Man's madness and contorted expression, he realized that the latter might have taken down Mu Feng, but had also suffered severe injuries himself.
After all, he was quite certain of the Thousand-Faced Man's abilities.
He was skilled in poison and disguise.
With these two combined, it was almost impossible to guard against an attack on anyone. Furthermore, after such a long time, the Thousand-Faced Man had finally returned to report, and he knew without a doubt that great results had been achieved.
The Thousand-Faced Man took a few steps forward, his head slightly bowed. As he approached the elder, he suddenly lunged.
The cicada-wing-thin blade in his hand directly plunged towards the elder's heart.
"Die, you bastard!"
"If it weren't for you scumbags digging up some information and threatening me with it, I wouldn't have become Mu Feng's enemy. Now, in front of Mu Feng, I'm like a controlled bug; he can torment and manipulate me as he pleases."
"Even if I die, I'll definitely drag one of you down with me. It's all because of you fools."
He had long since hated these people. If it weren't for them dragging him into this, why would he have deliberately sought trouble with Mu Feng?
The elder's expression changed. Although his speed was fast, the attack at such close range nearly hit him directly.
His clothes at the heart area were torn, and a tiny bloodstain appeared. However, at the critical moment, he dodged the fatal blow and simultaneously grabbed the Thousand-Faced Man's wrist, his face contorting with rage.
"You dare to attack me? You're looking for death!"
"And you haven't completed the mission. Since you're here and acting so frantically..."
As he spoke, the elder's expression turned extremely grim, his eyes burning with anger. "Did you bring Mu Feng here?"
"Hahaha..."
The Thousand-Faced Man let out a manic laugh, his eyes filled with a death wish.
"That's right, not only did I bring Mu Feng here, but Mu Feng forced me to act against you. Now, you've exposed yourselves, and Mu Feng knows it was you targeting him from behind. Now, every one of you, none of you will escape."
"Even if I die, Ling Mo will accompany me to the Yellow Springs. It will be worth it!"
"After all, you are a peak Grandmaster expert. There are not many people at your level, but now you will die because of me. At least after I die, it will be absolutely worthwhile."
At these words, the elder's pupils contracted sharply, and his gaze turned towards the doorway.
