An off-road vehicle slowly drove into Song Family Castle under the respectfully watchful eyes of the guards on the city wall.
"Captain Guan ca back from Anshan City pretty fast this ti, didn’t he? If I rember correctly, he only set off yesterday afternoon, and it’s just noon now?" soone wondered aloud.
"Heh, heh, heh, do you think Captain Guan is just like us, unworldly?"
"Exactly. For us, going to Anshan City is a big deal and everything seems new, but for Captain Guan, it’s as simple as eating and drinking water. Maybe he’s already tired of it."
"Sigh, comparing people really is frustrating."
Everyone shook their heads and sighed, full of envy.
Guan Dexi parked the off-road vehicle in the courtyard, pulled out a cigarette box, took out a cigarette, and lit it before taking a puff.
This ti, he went back to deal with Wu Bin’s family.
After handling things there, next up is here.
In fact, these things could be done by others; he didn’t need to do them personally. But each extra person knowing increases the risk slightly. Doing it himself, though tiring, ensures safety.
Besides, he wanted to ask that woman whether she had told anyone else about this matter.
Soone was already waiting outside with a sycophantic smile.
Guan Dexi glanced at him, chuckled twice ambiguously, and said, "Go about your business, there’s nothing for you here."
"Yes."
The person showed a trace of disappointnt upon hearing this, quickly bowed, and retreated.
After finishing his cigarette, Guan Dexi opened the car door and walked outside.
Soone behind him saw this and looked puzzled, but didn’t dare to ask more.
Guan Dexi passed through several streets, finally focusing his gaze on a residential building in front of him.
His mouth curled into a cold smile as he slowly walked up.
After reaching the third floor, he approached a door, extended his hand, and knocked.
"Who is it?"
A woman’s slightly fearful voice echoed from inside.
"Guard Team, we have so questions for you."
Guan Dexi’s voice rang out.
Chang Juan’s body shook; this voice seed sowhat different?
She looked through the peephole and saw the man before her. He had a friendly smile and wore a Guard Team uniform of a deeper color. She breathed a sigh of relief and opened the door.
"You, who are you?"
"You can call Captain Guan."
Guan Dexi walked straight in as soon as he finished speaking, casually closing the door behind him. After scanning the room briefly, he asked, "Is it just you in this house?"
Chang Juan nervously nodded, "It’s, it’s just , Captain Guan. What brings you here?"
As if still unsure, Guan Dexi walked around the house, opened the doors, and confird there was no one before returning to the living room.
Chang Juan’s heart raced to her throat.
A sense of ominous foreboding settled in.
"Tell , whom else did you inform about the bandits?"
Guan Dexi asked with a smile.
"The, the bandits?"
Chang Juan looked at him blankly and asked, "What bandits?"
She tried hard to maintain calm, wanting to seem like she wasn’t lying, but her slightly trembling body betrayed her.
"Bang!"
Guan Dexi took the handgun from his waist and placed it on the table.
He didn’t expect this woman to play tricks on him; indeed, she was overestimating herself.
"Thump."
Chang Juan imdiately knelt on the ground, her face pale, and her fragile body shook like a sieve.
"Captain Guan, please spare , spare ." She cried, "I learned about it by accident and didn’t tell anyone else."
"Nonsense."
Guan Dexi spat the words, "It’s co to this, yet you are still dishonest. You didn’t tell anyone else? Then why did Wang Xin know about it?"
"W- Wang Xin."
Chang Juan’s eyes showed deep fear.
Since her husband and a few others left and didn’t return by the next day, nor the days after, she imdiately realized they must be in trouble.
Feeling anxious and frightened, yet sowhat joyful.
Because ordinarily, the Yang brothers treated her badly; even minor dissatisfaction from them often led to beatings and scoldings.
If they never returned, wouldn’t that an she could live alone here from now on?
Unexpectedly, soon a person claiming to be her husband’s colleague ca inquiring about those matters.
She initially feigned ignorance, but the person resorted to violence. After being slapped a few tis, she could only choose to comply, revealing everything she heard.
The next morning, that person left.
But she remained highly anxious, fearing that person would return, wanting to leave the house but lacking the courage.
"Captain Guan, h-he forced ."
Crying, Chang Juan told the story.
"So, after that, you didn’t tell anyone else about this?"
"No, no."
Chang Juan quickly shook her head, "Captain Guan, except Wang Xin, I didn’t ntion it to anyone else."
She then fearfully looked at the handgun and pleaded, "Captain Guan, I’m truly not lying. Please spare . If you spare , I, I’ll do anything."
She mustered courage and cast a seductive glance.
She was confident about her looks, otherwise, Yang Mu wouldn’t have married her.
"Anything?" Guan Dexi seed interested, showing a lustful look in his eyes.
"Hmm!"
Chang Juan bit her lip, looking shy.
The man before her exuded the aura of an authority figure, far exceeding the prowess of Yang Xiaochun and the later Wang Xin; he should indeed be the captain of the Guard Team.
If she could please him, not only could she save her life, but also live better than she does now.
If that’s the case, what’s there to hold back?
"Really? Then show what you can do." Guan Dexi smiled aningfully.
"Here, here?"
Chang Juan raised her head, shyly.
"Where else?"
"O- Okay."
Chang Juan slowly stood up from the ground, her face showing a alluring smile, her delicate body moved closer to him.
"Captain Gu—"
"Crack!"
A crisp sound.
Before Chang Juan could say more, her head was twisted 90 degrees and drooped limply.
With a shove from Guan Dexi, her body fell to the ground with a thud.
"What a thing, to play seduction with ? Don’t flatter yourself." He sneered, pulled a handkerchief from his pocket, wiped his hands, and almost tossed it to the ground. After thinking, he tucked it back into his pocket, lit a cigarette, took a deep drag, and slowly blew a smoke ring in front of him.
With this, the people who accidentally knew about these matters were dealt with.
And the loose ends in Anshan City were tidied; everything was progressing as planned.
Who knows if Zhao Da and his gang have acted? It’s been just over half a day since he sent soone to inform them, barring unforeseen events, news should arrive tomorrow.
"Wu Bin and his useless bunch really are worthless."
He sighed.
If only they showed so competence, would he need to do this dirty work here?
But picking a stronger group for bandits wouldn’t be easy to control; they might turn against him.
So frustrating.
He shook his head and walked to the door, placing his hand on the doorknob and glanced back. In a few days, the stench of decay would alert others, but that had nothing to do with him.
At the mont the door opened, a shimring dagger silently rested against his neck, its blade emitting a chilling aura.
Guan Dexi’s smile instantly froze, fear swept all over him.
Undoubtedly, as long as the masked person before him applied a bit of pressure, his trachea would be severed, leading to suffocation death.
More terrifying was, who was this masked person? Had he been here the whole ti? Or arrived later and went unnoticed?
"Get in."
A deep voice commanded, "Don’t try anything funny. If you want to test speeds, be my guest."
"Don’t, don’t be reckless."
Guan Dexi instinctively raised his hands.
Just from the mont the door opened, the opponent managed to place the dagger against his neck silently, showcasing speed far superior to his.
They entered the room with Chen Fan closing the door.
This scene was sowhat reminiscent of earlier events.
"Friend,"
Guan Dexi swallowed, saying, "We should have no grievances between us, right? Let go, and you can tell whatever you want."
"Fine."
Chen Fan said directly, "I want the space items in your possession."
"!"
Guan Dexi was shocked. How did this person know he had that item? Who leaked this information?
"Friend, what are you saying?"
He quickly reacted and smiled wryly, "Space items are imnsely valuable; how could I possibly have sothing like that? If you want them, go look for those Awakeners."
"Really?"
Chen Fan smiled, extending his left hand towards Guan Dexi’s pocket.
The latter attempted to shrink back, but Chen Fan’s right hand exerted a bit of force, and imdiately, a cut appeared on his neck, fresh blood oozing.
"First warning. If you try again, you’ll die. Got it?"
"I, I understand."
Guan Dexi gritted his teeth, furious, and panic-stricken.
Is this person an Entry Force expert?
Dammit, besides that old man, there’s no Entry Force Martial Artist in Song Family Castle! This person’s build doesn’t match either!
Where did this Entry Force Martial Artist co from?
Why dare target him?
Doesn’t he know who’s backing him?
