Chapter 457: Chapter 457: Chen Biao Arrives (Four More Updates)
Wen Bozhong never expected that Cold Eagle, who was just fiercely battling with Lin Fei, would now join forces with Lin Fei against him.
Moreover, as far as he knew, this killer king Cold Eagle didn’t owe allegiance to anyone.
Although he had been imprisoned on Demon Island for many years, his major crimes were committed abroad. Domestically, he only killed a few crime lords, who were all notoriously evil.
So Cold Eagle’s crimes weren’t unforgivable, and with his abilities, if he wanted to leave Demon Island, no one could stop him.
Yet over the years, he hadn’t left Demon Island. It seemed as though he was avoiding something, deliberately isolating himself on the island.
Even when those in power expressed the intent to recruit him and pardon his crimes, he didn’t agree.
However, at this moment, Cold Eagle was willing to follow Lin Fei and leave Demon Island.
This made Wen Bozhong hardly believe his eyes. How did Lin Fei manage it?
Swish.
Cold Eagle’s afterimage flashed, and he was several meters away from Wen Bozhong, staring at him coldly, and said, “Old Man Wen, I want to take your life in exchange for a friend; you don’t mind, do you?”
This almost made Lin Fei, who was standing with folded arms at a distance, laugh out loud. This Cold Eagle truly deserved to be called the killer king; he always spoke with such artistry when taking lives.
“Young Master Lin, standing is tiring, why don’t you sit and watch!” As Lin Fei was enjoying the artistic dialogue between Cold Eagle and Wen Bozhong, two convicted murderers suddenly carried over a chair from somewhere, courteously offering a smile full of flattery.
Lin Fei was momentarily stunned, then realized that these murderers, seeing he had subdued Cold Eagle the killer king and pulled Wen Bozhong down from the cliff, recognized his strength.
So they instantly came over to curry favor with him, hoping he wouldn’t hold a grudge over previous incidents.
Lin Fei, unabashed, sat down confidently on the chair.
By this time, dozens of convicted murderers approached, heads bowed with apprehensive expressions, all apologizing to Lin Fei: “Young Master Lin, we didn’t see Mt. Tai in front of us and offended you!”
“Please forgive us with your great magnanimity.”
“From now on, on Demon Island, we’ll only follow Young Master Lin’s orders.”
Lin Fei: …
Evidently, these convicted murderers had mistaken Lin Fei for a fellow prisoner here to serve his sentence, so they wanted to recognize him as the big boss.
However, Lin Fei had no desire to become the island master of this Demon Island.
Of course, Lin Fei had never considered holding grudges against these murderers, who probably would never leave Demon Island.
Thus, when Wen Bozhong offered promises of pardon, their eyes turned red, and they attacked Lin Fei out of desperation.
It was simply a natural response to the desire for freedom.
“Alright, the past is the past. Everyone stand aside a bit, don’t block my view of the killer king and Wen Laohu fighting.” Lin Fei called out to the convicts blocking his view in front.
The murderers, relieved Lin Fei wasn’t holding a grudge, all quietly let out a sigh of relief.
Those who were blocking Lin Fei’s view hurriedly moved to the side.
A convicted murderer, eager to please Lin Fei, said, “Young Master Lin, you’ve given Old Man Wen the perfect nickname. This old man usually bosses us around like a tiger.”
“Today, let’s let the killer king take down the prestige of Wen Laohu!”
Seeing Lin Fei’s gaze fixed on Cold Eagle and Wen Bozhong without speaking,
the murderers who were talking all stopped themselves, afraid of angering Lin Fei, who was potentially scarier than the killer king and Wen Laohu.
Over there, Wen Bozhong was enraged at Cold Eagle’s words, coldly stating, “Killer king, even if your martial arts prowess is formidable, don’t forget my status and power. Even if you kill me, it won’t end well for you.”
“Sorry, Old Man Wen, no matter who you are, I’m not interested. I told you, killing you is just to make a friend.” With those words, Cold Eagle dashed out, leaving behind an afterimage, carrying a grandmaster’s aura, charging like a hurricane toward Wen Bozhong.
Wen Bozhong’s eyes also flashed with fury. Gritting his teeth, he said, “This is unbearable!”
Then he transformed into a speeding afterimage, his grandmaster’s inner Qi sweeping forward, launching an attack toward Cold Eagle.
The battle between two great grandmasters, one a killer king, the other a Shencheng tycoon, with grandmaster aura expanding and intensifying continuously.
The surging currents induced an intangible pressure felt by all convicted murderers.
The strong swirling currents lifted up billowing dust, making it impossible for any of the murderers to clearly see the fight between Cold Eagle and Wen Bozhong.
“Can’t see a thing?”
“Is the killer king winning, or is Wen Laohu more formidable?”
“This is nerve-wracking.
However, while the murderers fretted over not seeing the real combat situation, Lin Fei used his X-ray Vision to pierce through the billowing dust, seeing the battle between Cold Eagle and Wen Bozhong clearly.
The two were engaging fiercely, exchanging fists and palms, and Lin Fei noticed that Wen Bozhong, like Cold Eagle, had the strength of a fourth-level grandmaster.
But during the intense fight, Cold Eagle clearly had the upper hand due to his youthful vigor and many years of battlefield experience, pressing Wen Bozhong in attack.
“Cold Eagle won.” Lin Fei withdrew his gaze, already knowing the outcome.
All the convicted murderers were dumbstruck, looking at Lin Fei. Unable to see anything themselves, how did Lin Fei know Cold Eagle had won?
At that moment, with a loud bang like Thunder, followed by a wretched scream.
A figure burst out from the swirling dust like a discarded rag and landed just a few meters from Lin Fei.
Lin Fei and all the murderers looked and saw that it was Wen Bozhong who had fallen to the ground.
“Pfft!~~” Wen Bozhong seemed severely injured, spitting out a large mouthful of fresh blood.
As the currents and dust dispersed, Cold Eagle walked out with an icy aura.
He walked right up to Wen Bozhong, whose face was filled with terror, pleading, “Don’t kill me, don’t kill me… killer king, you’ve already crippled my martial arts, spare my life?”
Cold Eagle’s face remained unmoved, raising his palm to strike down.
Just then, the sound of helicopter rotors could be heard above, as three or four helicopters descended into the valley.
Lin Fei thought for a moment, then said to Cold Eagle, “Cold Eagle, leave him with his pathetic life for now.”
Cold Eagle looked at the helicopters coming down and nodded to Lin Fei.
The four helicopters landed in the clearing of the valley, then shut down their engines.
The door opened, and twenty to thirty soldiers with weapons in hand got out, taking defensive positions around them.
Finally, two people stepped out from one of the helicopters.
One was Commander Chen, with two gold stars on his shoulder epaulettes, and the other was Major General Li, with one gold star.
Seeing these two officers, Wen Bozhong, as if seeing hope, hurriedly called out to them, “Commander Chen, Major General Li, save me…”
Chen Biao moved toward Wen Bozhong, but Major General Li told him, “Commander Chen, don’t go over there.”
Major General Li was concerned that Chen Biao might be captured by Cold Eagle and the murderers.
Chen Biao laughed, “Are you afraid someone could take me, Chen Biao, hostage?”
With that, Chen Biao brushed aside Major General Li’s arm blocking the way, and fearlessly walked straight toward Wen Bozhong.
When Lin Fei heard the name Chen Biao and saw the two gold stars on his shoulder epaulettes, his face showed a rich array of expressions.
