171: Chapter 0171: Splitting the Bullet
“Are you done talking?”
However, facing Old Wolf’s statent, Chu Ge was completely unmoved and simply responded indifferently.
“You…” Old Wolf’s expression changed, and he gritted his teeth: “If you seek death, don’t bla !”
“Do you know?”
As he watched hundreds of crossbow arrows being raised and aid at him, Chu Ge made no attempt to dodge.
Instead, he slowly raised the blade in one hand, pointing the tip directly at Old Wolf: “As long as the swing of the blade is fast enough, even bullets can be split!”
“What nonsense are you talking about!” Old Wolf’s pupils contracted, and his fingers trembled slightly.
Still, he swung down his right arm: “Turn him into a sieve!”
How could such a thing exist in this world?
This kid is just bluffing.
“Dang—”
A light clang sounded, and Old Wolf’s face twitched as a crossbow arrow was split and flew away.
And what happened next, not just Old Wolf, but everyone present widened their eyes in shock, as if they had seen a ghost!
The Tang Blade, brandished in Chu Ge’s hand, turned into a swarm of dense phantoms.
The corridor, shrouded in shadows from arrows, saw all the crossbow arrows being deflected two ters in front of Chu Ge!
So arrows even ricocheted back, hitting several unlucky individuals.
A volley of fire, the blade danced!
Chu Ge, facing the barrage of crossbow arrows, crossed the hundred ters long corridor, coming directly in front of Old Wolf.
“Now, do you believe it?”
The Tang Blade was held horizontally, the cold touch on his neck bringing Old Wolf back to his senses.
He looked at Chu Ge and suddenly let out a miserable laugh: “I had heard rumors about you martial artists before, and I even encountered one.
But that ti, just a few dozen crossbows turned him into a sieve, so I thought, martial artists are nothing special.”
Chu Ge looked at him, silent.
“Until now, I finally understand, there really are people with superhuman abilities in this world!”
“So?” Chu Ge smiled.
“So…” Old Wolf suddenly raised his head and sneered at Chu Ge: “It’s ti for you to die!”
He had said so much, just to buy ti.
Unknown when, Old Wolf’s right hand now held a black pistol, aid directly at Chu Ge.
“Goodbye!”
“Bang—”
“Dang—”
The dull sound of gunfire and the clear sound of tal striking tal rang out almost at the sa mont, Old Wolf, stunned, turned his head to look at the orange bullet embedded in the wall.
“Didn’t I just tell you?” Chu Ge smiled, a small nick appeared on the edge of the Tang Blade: “As long as the swing of the blade is fast enough, even bullets can be split!”
“You…”
However, this ti, Old Wolf had no more chance to speak.
With a flash of the blade, a large head flew off, blood spurting out like a fountain.
After a few seconds, the headless body finally fell backward with a thud.
Utter silence!
Those big n in black, with crossbows in hand, yet not a single one dared to shoot an arrow at Chu Ge.
What a joke, even bullets could be chopped down; who would want to hurry to reincarnation by acting against him?
Chu Ge looked back once, without uttering a word, yet the hundreds of black-clad big n behind him all retreated a great distance in unison.
“Hehe…
Hahahaha!”
He suddenly burst into laughter, dragging the Tang Blade as he slowly walked toward the top floor.
As Chu Ge’s figure disappeared around the corner of the staircase, hundreds of n on the twelfth floor took a long sigh of relief—the Grim Reaper had finally left!
Suddenly, soone whispered, “Isn’t the thirteenth floor just above?
Isn’t Snake alone up there?”
No one spoke; after a long while, a sarcastic voice responded, “Humph, then do you dare go up and save Snake?”
This ti the entire scene truly quieted down.
……
The decoration of the thirteenth floor in the company was opulent, with carpets extending to the office at the end of the hall, flanked by nurous valuable plants.
The office’s door wasn’t locked; Chu Ge gently pushed it open, it swung inward; Poison Snake sat behind the office desk, his face calm, as if he had anticipated this outco.
“You don’t look surprised at all.”
Watching Chu Ge draw nearer, Poison Snake gave a bitter smile, “Honestly, I thought you were a goner.
Until a few minutes ago, they showed
a video.”
“They?” Chu Ge raised an eyebrow.
“I suppose you’ve already guessed it.” Poison Snake sighed and turned the laptop around, “Those people, they claim to be from the Ghost Poison Sect, a sect of Ancient Martial handed down from ancient tis.”
The video shown was that of Chu Ge in front of the mansion, single-handedly battling five postnatal experts from the Ghost Poison Sect.
Although the footage was blurry, it still clearly conveyed his unstoppable might at that mont.
“When you, alone, took ten odd minutes to fight your way to the tenth floor, I guessed that sothing grim was about to occur, so I called them.
But what ca was a video that just plunged
into despair.”
Poison Snake sighed deeply, as if trying to expel all the air from his lungs, “I don’t understand, for beings far beyond humans like you, power, money, won, they seem easily attainable.
Why still compete with us humans?”
Chu Ge paused for a few seconds, then said softly, “Actually, this is my dispute with the Ghost Poison Sect.
I’m planning to leave Shanghai after so ti, hence I want to cleanse all the influences here, eliminate all the Ghost Poison Sect people.
If this struggle was just about you wanting to replace Huo Tianqian, and your attitude towards
remained unchanged, I wouldn’t have intervened.
But, you shouldn’t have sought the Ghost Poison Sect as your backup.”
Hearing Chu Ge’s words, Poison Snake fell silent.
After a long while, he almost tremblingly lit a cigarette for himself, but before he took a few drags, he burst into hysterical laughter, even dropping the cigarette to the floor.
“Hahahaha…Hahahaha, this is just too funny…Hahahaha…”
Poison Snake even laughed until tears ca out; after a long ti, he finally subdued his laughter and looked at Chu Ge, “I guessed earlier those people would not be kind-hearted, so I never really trusted them.
Instead, I planned to use them as a stepping stone to connect with one of the Four Great Families of Modu, the Duan Family.
I didn’t expect… Hahaha… I really didn’t expect!”
Seemingly laughing so hard he couldn’t catch his breath, Poison Snake gasped heavily, “I used them as stepping stones, but in their eyes, I was just a piece to be discarded, from beginning to end, it has always been your dispute with the Ghost Poison Sect.
Struggle for power?
Just a joke.
The role I played in this, I guess, was just a clown?”
Chu Ge looked at him, remained silent, and then quietly turned away.
“Bang—”
A muffled sound ca from behind.
