Chapter 1421: Chapter 1421: Someone Left a Note

At this moment, Huo Cong stepped forward, blocking Jiang Xue, and asked coldly: "Who are you, and why do you want to kill us?"

The visitor didn’t speak, once again raised the knife in his hand, and aimed it at Huo Cong. Seeing that the other person not only refused to speak but also wanted to attack him, Huo Cong was immediately enraged.

As Jiang Xue’s bodyguard, he naturally carried a weapon, but it was an iron chain. When the assassin’s long knife came hacking down, Huo Cong whipped out the iron chain, quickly wrapping it around the opponent’s blade, and then gave a strong tug.

The assassin clearly did not expect Huo Cong to be armed, and for a moment, lost grip on his sword.

Luckily, he reacted swiftly, gripping the hilt in time, and exerted force, intending to duel with Huo Cong. But that’s exactly what Huo Cong was waiting for. Then, he deliberately fell towards the opponent, and as he got close, he stabbed with a dagger in his other hand.

The dagger gleamed, cold and bright. The assassin’s expression changed as he saw the dagger aimed at him, immediately letting go of his knife to dodge the blow.

However, he was too slow. As he retreated, Huo Cong’s dagger already pierced into his body.

Injured, the assassin no longer sought battle, clutched his wound, and turned to flee. Huo Cong, seeing this, was about to give chase. Jiang Xue spoke, saying: "Huo Cong, don’t chase!"

Huo Cong heard her words and halted his steps. At this time, Jiang Xue came over and asked: "Are you okay? Did you get hurt anywhere?"

"Rest assured, nothing happened to me; it’s the other guy who’s in trouble."

"Good that you’re okay, let’s head back quickly. It’s not very safe here in a foreign country at night."

"Alright, I’ll follow your lead."

They quickened their pace and returned to the hotel where they were staying. Once back in the hotel, Jiang Xue saw that it was too late, so she didn’t have Huo Cong contact Mu Qiancheng’s people.

However, to her surprise, when she returned to her room, she found a note placed on the coffee table. Jiang Xue looked down and saw it detailed Jin Hao’s movements.

After Jiang Xue finished reading the note’s contents, she tossed it into space. She hadn’t expected Mu Qiancheng’s people to be so capable as to enter the hotel and even get into her room.

As long as they were friends and not enemies, that’s fine with her. So, Jiang Xue wasn’t angry about others entering her room.

After reading the note’s content, Jiang Xue went out to find Huo Cong. Since Jin Hao was plotting against her, she naturally wouldn’t sit still and do nothing.

Huo Cong was about to shower when he heard knocking and emerged. Seeing it was Jiang Xue, he immediately opened the door and asked: "Something up, sis?"

"Let’s talk inside!" Jiang Xue spoke as she walked into Huo Cong’s room.

Afterward, Huo Cong closed the door and asked: "Sis, what’s going on?"

"Someone just left me a note, detailing Jin Hao’s movements today. From the message on the note, it looks like Jin Hao is planning to target us."

"Someone left a note?" Huo Cong was a bit surprised, looking at Jiang Xue: "Sis, do you think the information from the message is reliable?"

"I’ve looked it over, and it seems trustworthy."

"Isn’t sis worried that it’s a trap from Jin Hao? It might be Jin Hao testing us in a different way." Huo Cong voiced his suspicion. He thought this possibility couldn’t be excluded, considering not everyone could get into this hotel.

Moreover, as far as he knew, there were Jin Hao’s informants in this hotel. If someone entered Jiang Xue’s room, it couldn’t go unnoticed.
