"Because the six people you sent to sever my hands and feet were too weak, their skills were truly trash. I have to ask you, are all your subordinates such wastes? You're a terrible leader, aren't you?"
Chu Lingtian looked at Li Wei and shook his head.
Li Wei trembled with rage at Chu Lingtian's mockery and taunts, his expression one of utter disbelief. "Impossible, this is absolutely impossible! The six subordinates I sent to cut off your hands and feet were the strongest in our Sanhe Gang. How could you possibly have defeated them all?"
Though Li Wei refused to believe Chu Lingtian could defeat his six strongest men alone, the fact remained that the six formidable fighters who had blocked Chu Lingtian's path, threatening to chop off his limbs and cut out his tongue, were now lying on the ground, groaning in agony. Their hands and feet had been severed by Chu Lingtian, and their tongues had been cut out.
Hearing the conversation between Chu Lingtian and Li Wei, Bai Mei was greatly shocked. She stared at Chu Lingtian, scrutinizing him from head to toe. She never expected that the man she had briefly encountered at the security checkpoint, who appeared so ordinary, would be so incredibly brave and formidable. He had dared to storm the Sanhe Gang's stronghold alone.
Furthermore, judging from their words, Li Wei had sent his six strongest gang members to intercept and kill Chu Lingtian, yet they hadn't even managed to scratch him. Instead, Chu Lingtian had defeated all six of them and appeared before Li Wei completely unharmed.
"Whether you believe it or not doesn't matter. Do you remember what I told you on the phone?"
Chu Lingtian had a cigarette butt in his mouth, a sly smile appearing on his face as he stepped into the room.
*Crackling sounds.*
Four burly men surrounded him, aiming their guns at Chu Lingtian's head.
Chu Lingtian frowned, dropped the cigarette butt on the floor, and stomped out the flame with his foot.
"Hahahaha, you idiot, what good is your fighting skill? Can you be faster than bullets? Now, with one command, your head will be blown to pieces by a gunshot..."
Seeing Chu Lingtian with four guns pointed at his head, Li Wei burst into maniacal laughter, calling Chu Lingtian a fool for thinking he could kill him with just his bare hands. He was utterly naive.
Before Li Wei could finish his sentence, the situation changed in a flash.
Chu Lingtian moved with lightning speed. He grabbed the wrist of the gunman behind him with his right hand, simultaneously bending down.
*Bang!*
The gunman directly in front instinctively pulled the trigger, intending to shoot Chu Lingtian. But Chu Lingtian had already bent down, anticipating the move, so the bullet instead blew away the head of the gunman behind him.
The gunmen to Chu Lingtian's left and right, startled, instinctively tried to shoot, but it was too late.
*Bang!*
*Bang!*
*Bang!*
Three gunshots. Chu Lingtian, holding the gunman behind him's wrist, used that gunman's own gun to shoot and kill the gunmen in front and on either side, each with a shot to the head.
In the blink of an eye, a situation that everyone had perceived as Li Wei's absolute victory was completely reversed by Chu Lingtian.
Li Wei, Bai Mei, the four women kneeling on the ground, and Bai Mei's two personal bodyguards stared at Chu Lingtian, dumbfounded. None of them had expected someone to dare to fight back so desperately when four guns were aimed at his head.
What Chu Lingtian did was to subvert the common understanding of people, doing something completely unexpected. When everyone's reactions were too slow, he used his lightning-fast killing technique to instantly kill all four gunmen with shots to the head.
Unflinching, a killing machine.
Chu Lingtian's iron-blooded ruthlessness left Li Wei, Bai Mei, the four kneeling women, and Bai Mei's two personal bodyguards, the only remaining people in the room, utterly stunned into silence, their breath caught in their throats.
These were all hardened individuals who had been in the underworld for years and had witnessed many killings. They were not afraid, but someone like Chu Lingtian, who was ruthless, spoke little, killed without a change of expression, and even smiled faintly while doing so, was something they had never encountered before.
"Tell me, do you want me to shoot you once, or twice?"
Chu Lingtian spun the pistol in his right hand with practiced ease and asked Li Wei with a smile.
Everyone present felt a chill run down their spines and their scalps tingle at Chu Lingtian's smile. After all, he had shot the four gunmen in the head with precision, splattering blood and brains, all while wearing a smile.
A hidden blade behind a smile, killing with a smile. Such an unfathomable and unpredictable person was the most terrifying.
"You, who exactly are you?"
Li Wei trembled, cold sweat beading on his forehead. He had never imagined that a mere penniless security guard like Chu Lingtian would dare to storm his stronghold alone and push him into such a desperate situation in an instant.
If Li Wei still believed Chu Lingtian was just an ordinary security guard at this point, he would be truly foolish.
"I suspect you had me investigated long ago. Otherwise, you wouldn't have waited so many days to send people to kill me. Whatever conclusion your investigation yielded, that's who I am."
Chu Lingtian, with a smile on his face, played with the gun in his hand as he walked towards Li Wei.
"You, go to hell..."
Li Wei suddenly shoved one of the women serving him towards Chu Lingtian with his left hand, while simultaneously drawing a pistol from his back.
"Careful!"
Bai Mei quickly warned Chu Lingtian.
*Bang!*
*Bang!*
Two gunshots.
"Ah..."
Li Wei collapsed to the ground. He didn't even have the chance to pull the trigger. His hands had been pierced by Chu Lingtian's two shots, which had arrived faster.
"He's truly too strong, too terrifying!"
"Who is this man? We've never heard of such a powerful figure in our city."
Bai Mei's two personal bodyguards stood up from the ground, both unable to help but exclaim in admiration.
*Thud!*
Chu Lingtian walked up to Li Wei, looked down at him, and placed his right foot on Li Wei's head. He smiled and said, "I've also investigated your Sanhe Gang. You engage in illegal activities and commit countless evil deeds. You've harmed many innocent people over the years. Tonight, I'm here to act on behalf of Heaven."
"You, you can't kill me, you can't kill me! My boss behind the scenes is Black Panther!"
Li Wei, terrified and incontinent, quickly shouted.
Upon hearing the name "Black Panther," Bai Mei and her two personal bodyguards turned pale and gasped. They finally understood why Li Wei had suddenly acquired a crack shot elite team and dared to act so recklessly.
"What Black Panther, White Panther, I've never heard of them."
Chu Lingtian shrugged. As he spoke, he pressed the muzzle of the gun against Li Wei's forehead.
"Don't kill him..."
Bai Mei quickly pleaded.
*Bang!*
But Chu Lingtian ignored Bai Mei and shot Li Wei in the head.
Bai Mei looked at Chu Lingtian with terrified eyes, her voice trembling as she said, "You, you've caused a monstrous disaster now..."
Chu Lingtian threw the gun to the ground. He picked up a white tissue from the glass coffee table, wiped his hands, and walked towards Bai Mei with a cold expression.
