Chapter 11 Master
"Who...who are these people?"
Xiao Yichen's face was terribly gloomy.
He had spent a lot of money hiring these bodyguards and thugs, but they were weak and helpless against those five men!
He was shocked by the strength of the five people.
But what was even stronger was anger.
How could someone so capable take orders from that good-for-nothing Xiao Chen? He should be taking orders from him.
It didn't take long at all for the five underworld guards to wipe out the bodyguards in the corridor, leaving behind a chorus of groans on the ground.
Xiao Chen entered the private room and stood across the table from Xiao Yichen.
To Xiao Chen's surprise, Xiao Yichen was not flustered at this moment, and a mocking look appeared on his face again.
"If you have any other tricks up your sleeve, bring them out," Xiao Chen said indifferently.
Xiao Yichen let out a cold snort.
"You have indeed changed a lot. Even I have to look at you with new eyes. You have hidden it well for the past twenty years. Even I was fooled."
"I used to treat you as just a plaything, but now it seems I have to get rid of you."
Xiao Chen's expression shifted slightly as he turned to look behind him.
At the end of the corridor stood a figure.
He was a middle-aged man.
His figure is tall and slender, and at first glance he seems unremarkable, but upon closer inspection one will find that his aura is calm yet profound.
All five Netherworld Guards showed signs of vigilance.
Clearly, this person made them feel threatened.
Xiao Yichen gave a wicked smile.
This is his trump card, the capital that allows him to act so arrogantly.
The middle-aged man walked over with his hands behind his back, exuding the air of a master, and did not take the Five Nether Guards seriously.
"Mr. Tang, please take action and kill all these people!" Xiao Yichen shouted.
Mr. Tang nodded and said, "They must be killed; we can't ruin the plan."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Chen's heart stirred.
With the Xiao family's resources, they couldn't possibly have such a formidable figure.
Then there is only one possibility: they were sent by someone behind Xiao Yichen.
That so-called diviner...
What are their goals? What are their plans?
In his previous life, Xiao Chen was threatened by Lin Youyou's family and unjustly imprisoned. His parents threatened suicide to force him to hand over the Underworld King's Token, which ultimately benefited Xiao Yichen.
Years later, when the main family in the capital was choosing a successor, he was forced to commit suicide...
He didn't know what happened next.
Upon his rebirth, he suspected that it was a huge conspiracy from the very beginning, but he was unaware of it.
Have we finally made contact?
"Tell me, which faction do you belong to?" Mr. Tang stared at the Five Nether Guards with an air of utter disdain.
"No matter which faction you come from, I'm giving you a chance now. Abandon the darkness and embrace the light. This piece of trash isn't worth your lives," Xiao Yichen interjected.
No matter what Xiao Chen possesses, he will take it all away.
"You think you're worthy to make us submit to you?" one of the underworld guards said disdainfully.
Xiao Yichen's face turned cold instantly.
"If you insist on courting death, I won't stop you. Mr. Tang, just wipe them all out."
He sat back down on the sofa, watching the show unfold and mocking Xiao Chen.
"Once your five helpers are all gone, it'll be your turn..."
Xiao Chen remained expressionless and only said three words to the Five Nether Guards:
"It must be alive."
"Yes!" the Five Nether Guards replied respectfully, and then attacked the middle-aged man.
"You're courting death!" Mr. Tang was extremely confident. He watched the five men rush towards him, but he remained calm and even prepared to fight them with one hand, exuding an air of superiority.
In the blink of an eye, the two sides made contact.
Five hands came slapping at him at once, but Mr. Tang simply slashed with one hand, ready to easily deflect the attack.
Xiao Yichen trusted him completely, and his eyes showed anticipation.
next moment……
boom!
After exchanging a blow, a figure flew backward, leaving an arc in its wake.
"What? Impossible!"
Xiao Yichen's wine glass fell to the ground and shattered. He stood up abruptly, his face filled with shock.
Who else could it be but Mr. Tang who flew backwards?
"puff……"
After falling to the ground, Mr. Tang coughed up a mouthful of blood, his face as pale as paper.
He clutched his chest, all confidence gone, his expression filled with astonishment.
These five people didn't seem particularly strong, so he didn't take them seriously, confident that he could easily handle them. Naturally, he underestimated them and even thought he could defeat them with one hand.
He was seriously injured in just one exchange...
Where are you going to make sense?
"You've been hiding your true strength!" Mr. Tang exclaimed angrily.
Xiao Chen smiled upon hearing this.
The Underworld Guards, known as assassins of the dark world, are masters of stealth. How could this arrogant Mr. Tang possibly see through their deception?
He is indeed powerful among ordinary people, but he is still no match for the Netherworld Guards, let alone when all five of them attack together.
"I'm not afraid of you one-on-one!" Mr. Tang shouted angrily.
"Who wants to fight you one-on-one?" the masked Five Nether Guards said disdainfully.
The people of the Underworld are powerful but lack martial ethics; individual heroism is ridiculed and not encouraged.
If you can gang up on someone, don't fight one-on-one. This is a truth personally established by the previous King of the Underworld.
"How could Mr. Tang lose?" Xiao Yichen still couldn't accept it, and his eyes turned red.
He hadn't expected Xiao Chen's five subordinates to be so powerful, even more so than Mr. Tang.
This made him insanely envious and jealous.
What right does a good-for-nothing son have? What merit do he possess? He doesn't deserve it!
Xiao Chen walked up to Mr. Tang and looked down at him with a sharp gaze.
"What forces are you from, and what is your purpose in plotting this? Speak!" he said coldly.
"Speak or die!"
Mr. Tang's expression shifted between light and dark, becoming extremely unpleasant.
"Xiao Chen, who exactly are you? Where did you get all this power?" he asked, squinting his eyes.
Over the years, the organization has not paid much attention to Xiao Chen, because from the moment he was identified as a jinx, he was destined to become Xiao Yichen's stepping stone.
But they never expected that this overlooked good-for-nothing was so extraordinary, hiding his true nature as deep as the sea.
Not only is he exceptionally strong, but he also has several extraordinary experts at his disposal.
Many thoughts flashed through Mr. Tang's mind.
"Answer honestly! If you dare to have any other thoughts, you'll be killed on the spot!" shouted the guard beside him.
After observing for a while and realizing that he had no chance at all, Mr. Tang's face darkened.
"You think you can force anything out of me? Dream on!" he sneered.
"Xiao Chen, you'll never know the truth, but I can tell you, neither you nor the Xiao family will survive!"
Xiao Chen frowned deeply upon hearing this.
What forces are targeting the Xiao family?
What could the Xiao family possibly have that would be worth their covetousness?
"Hahaha……"
Mr. Tang burst into laughter, then black blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, his neck tilted to the side, and he collapsed.
"A deadly poison was hidden in its mouth beforehand; biting it will result in death," the Underworld Guard said in a deep voice after examining the wound.
Xiao Chen's expression was not good.
Was suicide the only option if the mission failed, or was it a plan made from the very beginning...?
This kind of force is certainly not a small organization, and it may be quite troublesome.
"If you're dead, you're dead."
He remained expressionless and turned to look at the stunned Xiao Yichen.
Xiao Yichen's body trembled violently...
