The sudden occurrence left the surrounding ruffians stunned like wooden chickens.
It wasn't until Tong Chengjin had already fallen dead that those nearby suddenly awoke from their daze and angrily charged toward the assassin.
In the chaos, someone shouted, "Protect the Head of the Stronghold!"
The remaining ruffians immediately surrounded Xue An.
Seeing this scene, the assassin who intended to fight again and cut down Xue An with a sword knew that it was impossible to succeed in the assassination today, so they angrily snorted.
"I'll spare you today!"
With that said, she turned around, rushed out of the restaurant, and disappeared into the sky.
The chaos in the restaurant continued, and the followers of the second stronghold leader, Tong Chengjin, simply couldn't accept the reality before them.
Therefore, some cried bitterly, while others were utterly bewildered.
Xue An found it amusing, as he felt no psychological burden for the concealed death of Tong Chengjin.
