The Whale in the Mountains

Chapter 659 A Man Should Know Himself

Hearing this, Luo Xingquan was stunned.

It wasn't that he was shocked by Chen Xiao's arrogance. From his perspective, Chen Xiao was simply recklessly arrogant.

Doesn't a person's greatest value lie in doing things for others?

Even the Song family is doing things for the people above, aren't they?

If he doesn't do things for others, what's the point of his existence?

If he's not appreciated and doesn't win in those power struggles, where's the joy in living?

As if to confirm, he emphasized, "Not even Song Anbang, the leader of the Tian Ce Army, the future head of the Song family?"

"Is it that I didn't make myself clear, or is there a problem with your understanding?"

Chen Xiao glanced at Luo Xingquan and asked.

This time, Luo Xingquan completely gave up.

"Hehe, so, Mr. Chen is not one of us?"

"You could say that."

In the vast sea of people, Chen Xiao could hardly find anyone who shared his path. This was due to his experience, his knowledge, and his abilities.

Perhaps someone could travel with him for a short distance, but ultimately, they couldn't keep up with his pace of growth.

Luo Xingquan remained calm and muttered to himself, as if talking to himself, "What are my men doing? I only asked them to invite someone over. Why haven't they returned after so long?"

"Mr. Chen, please wait a moment. I'll go see what's going on."

Luo Xingquan said with a dry smile.

"Okay."

Chen Xiao nodded slightly, without suspecting anything.

A few seconds after Luo Xingquan walked out of the room, he first heard a few clicks. The windows of the room suddenly dropped titanium alloy plates, completely sealing the windows.

Almost at the same time, there was also a clang, and the door of the room was also sealed.

Chen Xiao was slightly stunned, and then he understood.

This Luo Xingquan was trying to imprison him.

At this moment, a screen in the upper left of Chen Xiao's vision flickered a few times, and then Luo Xingquan's smug smiling face appeared on the screen.

"Hehe, Mr. Chen, I had no choice but to resort to this strategy. Please forgive me."

Luo Xingquan said with a smile on the screen.

"Luo Xingquan, what do you mean by this?"

Chen Xiao said to the screen quietly.

"Mr. Chen, don't you understand? Since you can't be used by Commander Song, then you are our enemy."

Luo Xingquan said.

"Not being used by you means being your enemy? What kind of logic is that? Is the Song family so overbearing?"

Chen Xiao frowned slightly. He wanted to confirm whether this was Song Anbang's intention or Luo Xingquan's own decision.

"Mr. Chen, you can't blame Commander Song for being overbearing. If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for being too capable and already posing a threat to Commander Song. As subordinates, of course, we have to think what the master thinks, worry about what the master worries about, and clear all obstacles on the road for the master so that the master can move forward without hindrance."

Luo Xingquan said in a strange tone.

"Master?"

Chen Xiao's face was filled with disbelief. "Luo Xingquan, you are also the deputy commander of the Tian Ce Army, but you call Song Anbang your master? Don't you think of yourself as a person at all?"

For a moment, Chen Xiao even thought that Luo Xingquan was no longer a man.

"A man should know his own limitations. If it weren't for the master's promotion, with my own abilities, Luo Xingquan, I would never have been able to climb to such a high position in this lifetime. Tsk tsk tsk, you capable people are just arrogant!"

"It's a pity, just having arrogance without a master will ultimately make it difficult to achieve great things!"

"It's good to be able to enjoy the shade under a big tree. Don't you understand such a simple truth?"

"After mastering literary and martial arts, one should sell their skills to the emperor's family. You, a small person without a background, actually said that no one in this world is qualified for you to work for him. Tsk tsk tsk, you can actually say such a thing. I really don't know how you've lived to this day. Your mind is simply not as good as that of an elementary school student!"

"The stronger your abilities, the more dangerous you are! Originally, if you were more low-key, you could have survived for a while longer, but you insisted on jumping around. Now, you've fallen into my hands!"

Luo Xingquan declared Chen Xiao's fate with a smug look on his face.

It was as if Chen Xiao was the Monkey King, and he was the Buddha.

"Hehe."

Chen Xiao sneered. "I didn't expect that we would only meet for the first time, but you would have such a big resentment towards me. Since you hate me so much, why don't you just kill me?"

"Do you think I'm stupid? If I go in to kill you, it's the same as sending myself to my death. I just need to lock you inside and let you slowly wait for death!"

"Of course, you will definitely think of a way to escape, but I advise you not to waste your energy. The doors and windows here use the most advanced technology in the world. It is said that its strength can even isolate the power caused by an atomic bomb explosion."

"Hehe, so if you have any thoughts of escaping, just give up as soon as possible!"

Luo Xingquan leisurely took a sip of his drink and looked at Chen Xiao on the screen through the monitoring screen.

He knew that even if he reminded him, Chen Xiao would definitely not believe him.

He would try every means to escape. After experiencing failure, he would go crazy, collapse, become hysterical, and finally completely despair and resign himself to fate.

Just like everyone else locked in the other rooms.

Luo Xingquan had watched this process countless times.

But he still couldn't get enough of it, because every time, it brought him different fresh stimulation.

He liked watching strong people begging for mercy on their knees. The stronger they were, the more he liked it.

He stared at Chen Xiao on the screen without blinking. He wanted to see what new tricks Chen Xiao could come up with.

"Oh, a writing brush?"

Luo Xingquan was stunned when he saw that Chen Xiao suddenly had a thick and long writing brush in his hand.

Because he couldn't figure out where Chen Xiao had hidden such a thick and long thing just now. He hadn't noticed it at all.

Then he saw Chen Xiao writing and drawing on the ground with the writing brush. Then a stream of light flashed in the picture, and Chen Xiao actually disappeared.

"Huh? Disappeared? Where's the person?"

Luo Xingquan constantly adjusted the angle of the monitor, trying to find Chen Xiao's figure in the room.

However, the monitoring lens swept through every corner of the room, but Chen Xiao was nowhere to be found.

"Where did the person go?"

Luo Xingquan scratched his head, looking confused.

Because what had just happened in front of him was beyond his comprehension.

"Are you looking for me?"

At this moment, a cold voice came from behind Luo Xingquan.

In an instant, Luo Xingquan felt his scalp tingle, and all the goosebumps on his body popped out.

His back was as if it was covered with thorns, piercing his flesh.

Great fear filled his mind.

Luo Xingquan stiffly turned his head, and Chen Xiao was looking at him with a smile…
