25: Chapter 25 Cold as a Beast 25: Chapter 25 Cold as a Beast “It’s you two,” said Zhu Qingyuan coldly.
With his right hand, he violently pulled out a knife, and fresh blood stread from his left hand, but he did not cry out, nor did he glance at it further.
It was evident he was a ruthless character.
“Hmph!
Zhu Qingyuan, you never expected this day, did you?” Shi Jian’s gaze was icy, and his fists were clenched, ready to finish him off.
Just then, two n suddenly rushed in from the outside; both were bare-bottod, holding knives in their hands.
“Big brother,” they worriedly looked at Zhu Qingyuan as they burst in.
“Be careful…”
Zhu Qingyuan had not finished his words when Xiang Yu, hiding behind, ‘bang bang’ took him down twice.
Unfortunately, the two great generals beside Zhu Qingyuan hadn’t even seen Xiang Yu’s face before they fell there.
“These are your great generals?
They are too weak,” Xiang Yu shook his head and sighed.
He was no gentleman; if he could easily eliminate his opponents, he wouldn’t exert an ounce of extra effort.
“You…” Zhu Qingyuan ground his teeth, “Kid, you’re seeking death.” He had already gripped Xiang Yu’s dagger tightly in his hand; with a casual flick, “plush,” he sliced off a bed corner.
Only then did he pick up the dagger again for another look.
The dagger emitted a chilling cold light, giving off a frosty feeling.
This dagger had been obtained by Xiang Yu during his first mission in the Middle East when a dying terrorist had thrown it.
It was to block this blade that a comrade of Xiang Yu had given up his own life.
It was the first ti Xiang Yu had killed soone; he had riddled the opponent with bullets, but because he had killed an important criminal, he was disciplined.
This dagger held extraordinary significance for him; he had lost count of how many people he had killed with it.
Holding the dagger, Zhu Qingyuan grew a bit more confident.
“Will you do it yourself, or shall we do it?” Shi Jian said as he took a step forward.
“Just with you two also want to take on?” Zhu Qingyuan suddenly stabbed at Shi Jian with a knife; it was very fast, aid directly at a vital spot.
Shi Jian had been on guard against him, knowing that Zhu Qingyuan, having struggled up to this point, certainly had unusual skills.
Seeing that his stab had missed, Zhu Qingyuan lunged toward Shi Jian, intending to seize the mont to finish off Shi Jian first and then fight Xiang Yu.
Shi Jian stepped back several steps continuously, internally surprised at how formidable Zhu Qingyuan was.
anwhile, he glanced at Xiang Yu from the corner of his eye, silently cursing why the kid hadn’t acted yet.
“Put down the dagger.” Suddenly a frigid voice rang out, causing Zhu Qingyuan’s body to tremble.
The voice seed to co from hell, making him involuntarily step back several paces.
“Put it down, you don’t deserve to hold it,” Xiang Yu said, unusually serious, which even stunned Shi Jian for a mont.
“Hmph!
Put it down?
I’ll kill you.” Zhu Qingyuan felt a dangerous aura emanating from Xiang Yu, so he took a step to the right and backed against the wall, ready to combat Xiang Yu.
He knew Xiang Yu’s prowess, but in this cramped space, with a sharp dagger in his hand, he was confident he could stab Xiang Yu.
Shi Jian noticed the problem, but with Xiang Yu standing in front of him, he was powerless to help.
Just when the dagger had only just torn Xiang Yu’s clothes, Zhu Qingyuan’s wrist was suddenly grabbed by Xiang Yu.
Zhu Qingyuan tried to stab harder, but his wrist felt like it was stuck and painfully, he couldn’t move it forward even a bit.
Only then did Zhu Qingyuan realize the gap in strength between himself and Xiang Yu.
Despite using his arm’s strength, he couldn’t advance it even slightly, let alone gain montum.
He wanted to pull his hand back, but he couldn’t.
“I told you to put it down, why didn’t you listen?” Suddenly, a snapping sound was heard and Xiang Yu directly broke the opponent’s wrist; bone spikes pierced through the skin, blood gushed out.
Xiang Yu took the dagger and put it away, his expression significantly improved, then with a slap, he knocked Zhu Qingyuan onto the bed.
It was hard to believe that Zhu Qingyuan, a major gang leader, was so easily defeated in front of Xiang Yu.
Even Shi Jian, who stood by the side, was sowhat taken aback.
Now seeing Zhu Qingyuan hit the bed, he grabbed his hair and threw him to the floor, his right hand brandishing the dagger, ready to slash his throat.
Xiang Yu quickly grabbed Shi Jian’s wrist.
“Now is not the ti to kill him,” Xiang Yu said.
“What are you talking about?
We ca here today to end his life, how can we give up now?” Shi Jian said, almost crazily.
At this mont, Zhu Qingyuan finally felt afraid, sensing a whiff of death.
“Brothers, spare my life.
Just let go today, and I’ll give you half of my logistics company,” Zhu Qingyuan, no longer minding the pain in his wrist, knelt on the ground and pleaded.
“Half?” Xiang Yu said coldly.
Zhu Qingyuan knew what Xiang Yu ant, now that even his life was at risk, what use were these assets?
“All of it, from today onwards, Fang Yuan Logistics is yours,” he declared.
“No going back.”
“I will never go back,” Zhu Qingyuan said, secretly pleased as he saw Xiang Yu agree; as long as he could walk out from here today, who would acknowledge these words in the future?
“Alright, but I need to leave you with sothing to rember,” Xiang Yu said, then forcefully kicked Zhu Qingyuan’s leg, creating a cracking sound as the leg bone shattered, which trembled in the ears of those who heard it.
Zhu Qingyuan could no longer bear the pain, and cried out loud, tears uncontrollably streaming down his face.
It was the first ti he had ever been in such a sorry state after so long in the underworld.
“Let’s go,” Xiang Yu said, pulling Shi Jian along.
Shi Jian, still holding the dagger, reluctantly glanced at Xiang Yu, then turned and walked out.
As Xiang Yu reached the door, he suddenly turned his head and glared at Zhu Qingyuan, “You better an what you said, or I will take your life, and I an it.”
Seeing the look in Xiang Yu’s eyes, Zhu Qingyuan was so frightened that he almost passed out.
It was a cold, wild-beast-like look, a kind of invisible killing intent that can only be acquired through blood and tears.
He had no doubt that Xiang Yu could end his life with just a single move.
What to do?
Should he really hand over his company to them?
It was his life’s work, won through countless life-and-death struggles, just to be given away like this?
Reluctance surged in Zhu Qingyuan’s heart, and his eyes began to darken as he thought about the scores of loyal n under his command.
“Why didn’t you let kill him, keeping him today is burying a problem for us,” Shi Jian complained, only then noticing that Xiang Yu had not followed him.
“Hey, where are you going?” Shi Jian turned and called after Xiang Yu.
“To take a bath, what else?
The business is done, what more do you want?” Xiang Yu replied as he entered the room and calmly began to undress.
“I can’t believe you, you’re in the mood to take a bath now,” Shi Jian shook his head helplessly.
“Tell , why didn’t you let kill him?” he continued, still dissatisfied.
“Didn’t you see the three caras on the way up?
I’m not a fool like you,” Xiang Yu replied before jumping into the pool.
There was another reason he did not ntion, he needed to use Zhu Qingyuan to gain Fang Kuohai’s complete trust and reliance.
It was only by making this move that he could fully enter the circle and build his own power.
Of course, he could not reveal these thoughts…
