The Whale in the Mountains
Chapter 331 Just Making a Cameo Appearance
Lin Cheng asked with disbelief.
“You think a mere Eight Gates Grand Lock could hold me?”
Chen Xiao sneered and walked towards Lin Cheng.
“You… you killed them all?”
Looking at the hole in Mr. Huang's head, Lin Cheng almost threw up…
“You asked a pointless question.”
Chen Xiao said calmly.
“You, you… you want to kill me too?”
Lin Cheng asked, trembling.
“You asked another pointless question.”
Chen Xiao glanced at him coldly, his eyes full of killing intent.
Lin Cheng panicked, “You can’t kill me!”
“Oh?”
Chen Xiao asked with a playful, mocking expression, “Give me one reason why I can’t kill you!”
“I… I am a state public official. If you kill me, you are going against the entire country!”
Lin Cheng tried to stop Chen Xiao with this identity.
“You still know you’re a public official? Do you think the things you’ve done are worthy of your position?”
Chen Xiao sneered dismissively; he no longer intended to continue playing with Lin Cheng…
Just then, a burst of noisy footsteps suddenly came from outside the door.
Immediately afterward, the door to the presidential suite was kicked open from the outside!
Bang!
A group of people rushed in with an imposing aura.
But when they saw everything in the room, the expressions on their faces suddenly became very strange…
What, what is going on? It wasn't what they had imagined!
An expression of surprise also appeared on Chen Xiao's face, because he recognized three of the people who had come.
Luo Qian, Song Zijian, and Tong Jinjian.
“What are you doing here?”
Chen Xiao asked in confusion.
“Brother Chen, we came to save you… but it seems like it wasn't necessary…”
Luo Qian said with an embarrassed expression.
Tong Jinjian’s face showed the most confusion, because he was the one who personally applied the Eight Gates Grand Lock to Chen Xiao, but now, it was gone.
But regardless, it was good that Chen Xiao was still alive, otherwise, he would have been abetting a villain.
“I brought them here, because I thought there was something wrong with Lin Cheng. I guessed right! That detestable guy!”
Tong Jinjian wore a righteous expression, and his address for Lin Cheng changed from Team Leader Lin to his given name.
Good heavens, with a shake of his body, this guy whitewashed himself.
Chen Xiao directly rolled his eyes.
Lin Cheng didn't even bother to blame Tong Jinjian for betraying him; he ran directly to a tall, dark-faced middle-aged man.
He immediately confessed, “Leader! I am guilty! Arrest me quickly!”
Chen Xiao then noticed the dark-faced man. This person had an extraordinary temperament and wild eyes. He didn't expect him to be Lin Cheng's leader.
Wasn't it said that Lin Cheng was the highest-ranking leader of the Jiangcheng Evil Exorcism Division?
The black-faced man snorted angrily, “Hmph, Lin Cheng, how dare you show your face? You actually betrayed the organization and secretly colluded with the Huang Sect, wasting the organization's efforts in nurturing you!”
“Yes, yes, yes, Leader, you’re right about everything! I confess to all my crimes, please take me away quickly…”
Lin Cheng begged bitterly. He would rather be taken back and face the Evil Exorcism Division’s judgment than face Chen Xiao’s revenge.
The black-faced man was dumbfounded; he thought Lin Cheng would try to argue.
He had prepared a whole bunch of words, but he didn't use a single one!
But since Lin Cheng had already confessed, he couldn't force him to act it out again with him.
So, he had no choice but to order the people behind him, “Take him back! Await the organization’s disposal!”
The members of the Evil Exorcism Division behind him immediately handcuffed Lin Cheng and prepared to take him away.
At this moment, Chen Xiao suddenly said, “Hold on, did I allow you to take him away?”
Chen Xiao thought to himself, what’s wrong with this group of people? Are they making a movie? After he had taken care of everything, they came to clean up.
And they still want to take Lin Cheng away, did he allow it?
The dark-skinned man was stunned and asked grimly, “Young man, what do you mean by this?”
Song Zijian desperately winked at Chen Xiao, signaling him not to speak nonsense.
But how could Chen Xiao listen to him?
So, Chen Xiao only said indifferently, “This Lin Cheng has repeatedly helped that Mr. Huang to mess with me. I haven’t taken revenge yet, and you want to take him away? Did you ask for my opinion?”
As soon as Chen Xiao said this, the entire place was shocked.
Song Zijian and Luo Qian instantly broke out in cold sweat, and Tong Jinjian immediately shouted angrily at Chen Xiao, “Chen, how dare you speak to our leader like that? Do you know who he is?”
“I don’t care who he is. Tong Jinjian, I haven’t settled the score with you yet. Get out of my way and don’t go looking for trouble!”
Even though the people in front of him were all from the Evil Exorcism Division, Chen Xiao didn’t give them any respect.
“Chen Xiao, you…”
Song Jinjian wanted to say something else, but the dark-skinned man raised his hand and stopped him.
The dark-skinned man narrowed his eyes and sized up Chen Xiao. “Young man, Lin Cheng is a member of our Evil Exorcism Division. Even if he made a mistake, it should be handled by our Evil Exorcism Division!”
Chen Xiao said unconvinced, “Then what about me? I am the victim!”
“What do you want?”
The dark-skinned man’s voice sank as he asked tit-for-tat.
“I want to kill him!”
Chen Xiao said casually.
“You dare…”
The dark-skinned man shouted angrily, but before he could finish his sentence, he froze.
Or rather, everyone froze.
Except for Chen Xiao and Lin Cheng.
Because a silver needle pierced Lin Cheng’s throat, and before he could even let out a cry, he was already dead.
And the person who killed him was naturally Chen Xiao.
Everyone was shocked. Chen Xiao killed a member of the Evil Exorcism Division in broad daylight. What audacity!
In an instant, all the members of the Evil Exorcism Division trembled and prepared for battle, waiting for the dark-skinned man’s order.
The dark-skinned man glared at Chen Xiao, his face becoming even darker.
Chen Xiao’s actions didn’t leave him any face at all.
It wasn’t just not leaving him any face; it was practically trampling on his face on the ground.
But Chen Xiao acted as if nothing had happened, meeting the dark-skinned man’s eyes without any fear!
The two of them stared at each other like that for a full dozen seconds. A tense atmosphere flowed in the air, and everyone’s nerves were stretched to the limit.
The sound of sweat dripping from someone’s face onto the ground could be heard clearly.
After a long time, the dark-skinned man finally spoke.
He raised his hand and shouted, “Withdraw!”
Before leaving, he gave Chen Xiao a fierce look!
The dark-skinned man didn’t attack Chen Xiao. Everyone was surprised, even Chen Xiao himself was surprised.
But they just left like that, coming and going in a hurry.
Except for the corpses of Mr. Huang and Lin Cheng, they didn’t take anything away, as if they were just passing by, buying some soy sauce…
