Chapter 797: Chapter 771: How could you possibly not be dead?
Hearing Liang Youshan’s words, Jin Hong also burst into a sudden rage, hissing furiously as he snarled, "What did you say?"
As Jin Hong grew angry, he swung his fist viciously at Liang Youshan. Jin Hong had previously been a master of the mundane world, but now, having enhanced his abilities to the Heavenly Realm with the Marrow Cleansing Pill, his power had greatly increased. His ferocious Hung Fist aimed to smash Liang Youshan, with an aggressive stance that suggested he intended to explode him with a single punch.
Liang Youshan’s mouth curved into a sly, cold smile. As Jin Hong closed in on him, Liang Youshan suddenly struck back, grabbing Jin Hong’s fist, and with a forceful twist, a chilling ’crack’ sound of breaking bone resounded.
"Ah——" Jin Hong immediately let out a pig-slaughter-like shriek of pain.
Liang Youshan swept his leg over, knocking Jin Hong to the ground and then heavily stomped on Jin Hong’s chest, causing him to scream in pain, spit blood continuously, with an extremely pallid and ghastly face, and eyes finally showing the color of fear as he looked at Liang Youshan, clearly stunned by everything that had unfolded.
The others were naturally dumbstruck as well.
Xinyue and Tang Guo looked at Liang Youshan with strange expressions. Wasn’t this guy poisoned? How could he now seem unharmed?
Wang Wei and Wu Fei finally didn’t have to keep up their act, and their expressions returned to normal.
"You — weren’t you poisoned? How can you possibly be —" Jin Hong was shocked, utterly confounded. These three were supposed to have drunk water laced with drugs, so how could they be fine?
Liang Youshan sneered and spat at Jin Hong disdainfully, "Poisoned? Poison my ass. Do you think everyone is as stupid as a pig like you are? No, that would be an insult to pigs; calling you a pig would be a compliment. Did you really think your childish schemes could deceive us? We saw right through you. It was all just a ruse to lure you out, and you thought you had us in your grasp."
"How about it? Our performance just now was quite exquisite, wasn’t it? Worthy of an Academy Award, don’t you think?"
"You —" Jin Hong was completely flabbergasted, having thought his plan was ingenious, rejoicing at how easily he thought he had captured them all. But now it seemed he was the one who had been played; they had known all along that he had been setting up a trap in secret.
But how could that be possible —
"You clearly drank the water I drugged; how can you possibly be alright?" Jin Hong still didn’t understand.
Liang Youshan rolled his eyes at Jin Hong and said, "Are you an idiot? Just because there’s poison doesn’t mean there isn’t an antidote. Couldn’t we have taken a preventive countermeasure in advance? Since we saw through you, wouldn’t we be prepared for this? You’re even stupider than a pig. I wonder how the power behind you could choose a loser like you as a pawn; they really are blind as bats."
"You —" Jin Hong’s face was so hideous that he was speechless and choked on his words.
"Me what me? You’re now defeated by me. Don’t think you can strut around just because you have a little strength. With your level of power, it’s as easy for me to crush you as it would be to squash an ant. I’ll give you one chance, reveal the force behind you, and maybe I’ll consider sparing your life," Liang Youshan said.
Jin Hong’s face was sinister: "Even if I did know, I wouldn’t tell you. Humph, let me go? This is Liucheng; how dare you touch me? What can you possibly do to me? I see you’re completely clueless. Tangyu is already dead; what good are a few of you left? Heh, let me give you a piece of advice, the wise man submits to circumstances. Opposing us will only leave you a dead end; not even the Immortal can save you."
"Err — thud —"
Liang Youshan squeezed hard, causing Jin Hong to scream out and spit a mouthful of fresh blood.
A figure stepped forward, stood before Jin Hong, and looked down at him with a light, wicked smile on his face: "Sorry to disappoint you."
The person was naturally Tangyu. How could a small bomb possibly kill Tangyu?
Seeing Tangyu, Xinyue and Tang Guo were also deeply shocked, with Xinyue almost ready to leap forward in excitement: "Tangyu, you’re not dead?"
"Tangyu, you actually survived; that’s great, I knew you were too lucky to die," Tang Guo was also extremely excited as if she had found a release for her soul.
Jin Hong’s eyes widened in disbelief as he stared at Tangyu: "You, how could you not be dead? I was watching you the whole time, you were clearly in the car; how could you possibly survive? With such a powerful bomb, how could you still be alive and completely unscathed?"
Tangyu looked at Jin Hong with mocking amusement: "What, can’t believe it? Baffled?"
"That just shows how limited and weak your perspective is, you are just too weak and unworthy to know about things at my level. Okay, I’m tired of the nonsense with you, the play’s over. Now, it’s time for you to explain, isn’t it?" Tangyu said.
Jin Hong clenched his teeth: "Dream on, kill them for me."
The members of the Flying Wheels Gang were first stunned, then they came to their senses and charged toward them en masse.
"Courting death." Wang Wei and Wu Fei charged out to confront those men. Naturally, dealing with them was like reaping wheat; in no time at all, they had laid dozens of people on the ground, each writhing in pain, unable to get up.
Liang Youshan didn’t hesitate to curse again, "Idiots and brain-dead fools, the lot of you. Knowing our strength, yet you send these scrubs to face us. You really are brain-dead enough for it. No wonder no one has come to save you. Do you actually believe that you’re an important pawn?"
"A pawn is just a pawn. What is a pawn? Something that can be sacrificed at any time. You dumb pig, you don’t even realize you’re being used, it’s pathetic. Thinking you can play with us? You’re nowhere near qualified. Maybe the power behind you is. Speak up, be honest, or you’re going to suffer."
"What are you talking about? I don’t understand—ah—"
Liang Youshan was unapologetic, stomping heavily on Jin Hong’s hand, the bones crackling audibly, probably breaking a few; Jin Hong’s scream was as piercing as the squeal of a butchered pig.
Such an inappropriate scene terrified Xinyue and Tang Guo. Tangyu gave Wang Wei and Wu Fei a look and said, "Take them back first."
Xinyue and Tang Guo glanced at Tangyu and, without objection, obediently followed Wang Wei and Wu Fei as they drove off in the Maybach.
With the two women sent away, Tangyu felt much more relaxed, with less need for caution in his actions.
However, Jin Hong turned out to be unexpectedly stubborn, still clenching his teeth, "I’ve said I don’t know anything. Just give up already. If you want to kill me, then do it. Here in Liucheng, I don’t believe you can stir up any trouble. Kill me, and you won’t be able to leave Liucheng."
Tangyu gave a cold smile, crouching down, "Do you really have to say such childish things to amuse us? So what if we kill you? Who do you think you are? Even if we kill you, we can still walk out of Liucheng with our heads high. The Jin Family will avenge you? Do you think your Jin Family has that strength? The Flying Wheels Gang will avenge you? I’ve captured the top three leaders of your gang. As for this rabble, who would even bother to look at them? Or are you counting on the police of Liucheng? That’s even more laughable. Just this afternoon, I gave Captain Yang of the Liucheng Public Security Bureau a beating; he’d probably take a detour if he saw me. So tell me, who are you counting on to save you?"
Jin Hong was stunned; he had bluffed to intimidate Tangyu and his gang, but to no avail.
"Not afraid of death, are you? I doubt that. Do you really think I wouldn’t dare kill you?"
"I don’t understand what goes on in your head, being a dog and a pawn for others is one thing, but is it worth dying for? Is your life worth so little?"
"You see, even if you don’t talk, I know a lot about you. You created the Flying Wheels Gang, and you’ve been causing chaos in Liucheng, all under someone else’s orders. I have a rough idea of who might be behind this, and even if you keep quiet, I’d still be able to find out, though it’d be a bit more troublesome."
"Look, if I kill you and wipe out your Flying Wheels Gang, the source of Liucheng’s turmoil is gone, and peace will return immediately. Naturally, the power behind you will have to surface again. By then, they’ll probably come to us on their own initiative. Do you think it’s worth defending these useless things with your life?"
Liang Youshan sneered, "Why bother talking so much with him, boss? This guy just doesn’t learn his lesson until he pays the price. Just kill him already. Damn, I can’t stand his face, especially after all that posturing and swagger. His arrogance is off the charts. We’ll draw out the power behind him once we kill this idiot."
Jin Hong’s heart was indeed swayed. He knew that what Tangyu said might be true, but he was also terrified of the person behind it all.
But now, he faced potential death. Nonetheless, the most important thing was to survive.
Jin Hong gritted his teeth, "If I tell the truth, you won’t kill me, right?"
Tangyu smirked, "That depends on whether what you say satisfies me. If you leave things out and only tell us irrelevant stuff, I’m obviously still going to have to kill you. But if you’re forthcoming and satisfy me, I might consider letting you go."
Jin Hong immediately said, "Good, I will tell you everything I know. The man who instructed me goes by the name ’Winged Young Master.’ I don’t know what his background is, only that he’s incredibly powerful, terrifyingly so. I feel so insignificant before him; he could kill me with a flick of his finger. This all started about a month ago—"
Jin Hongxiang detailed the entire sequence of events.
Tangyu-raised an eyebrow; this ’Winged Young Master’ seemed quite powerful, likely someone from the Earthly Realm.
It was unexpected that a mere Liucheng could attract such a big fish; he might have trouble dealing with it himself.
"That’s everything, I’ve spared no detail. You can let me go now," Jin Hong pleaded.
Tangyu curled his lip, stood up, and said to Liang Youshan, "Clean this place up."
After speaking, he turned and walked away.
Hearing this, Jin Hong was as if struck by lightning, roaring in rage, "Tangyu, you’re untrustworthy! You won’t die a good death, uh—"
Liang Youshan watched Jin Hong coldly, sneering, "Damn it, my boss might let you off, but I didn’t say a word. Haha, meet your end."
