Chapter 304: Chapter 304: The Ultimate Scumbag

To Shen Tianfang, this was unbelievable! The entire building had thirty-five floors, each with his people, not to mention numerous staff and security personnel. Moreover, the thirty heartbeat bombs were hidden with extreme care. Even staff who were intimately familiar with the building would need a long time to find them all with a carpet search of each floor. Yet, Leng Yue had found and disarmed every single bomb without alerting anyone.

”Was it that difficult?” Leng Yue shrugged.

Pfft!

Shen Tianfang nearly coughed up blood. Leng Yue spoke so casually about a task that was nigh impossible. It was as if his intelligence was being ground into the dust.

”Any more aces up your sleeve?” Ye Xiu asked with a smile.

”I’m out,” Shen Tianfang said, slumping into his seat, completely disheartened.

”No, you still have one,” Ye Xiu said.

Shen Tianfang froze. ”What do you mean? If I had another trump card, wouldn’t I know?”

”What about your master, the Gun God?” Ye Xiu asked. ”Isn’t he your ace in the hole?”

Shen Tianfang’s pupils constricted. ”You... I don’t know what you’re talking about. What Gun God?”

”We’re past the point of pretending. What’s the use?” Ye Xiu snorted coldly and began his analysis. ”The moment you walked in, I noticed the calluses on your right index finger. They’re from long-term shooting. Your right shoulder is also calloused, a mark left by the immense recoil of firearms. Taking everything into account, I concluded you’re a sniper. Furthermore, ’Think of defeat before claiming victory’ is the Gun God’s motto. He would never have shared that saying and its deep meaning with you unless you were his disciple. Besides, the way you laid out your plans is strikingly similar to the Gun God’s.”

Hearing Ye Xiu’s analysis, Shen Tianfang was no longer just shocked; he was terrified. Based on a single phrase and his strategic layout, Ye Xiu had deduced his relationship with the Gun God. Clearly, Ye Xiu doesn’t just know the Gun God; he understands him intimately. Shen Tianfang suddenly realized that during Ye Xiu’s decade abroad, he must have met and even fought the Gun God. To fight the Gun God and survive... Ye Xiu’s strength is unimaginable. And here I was, treating this like a game, thinking I could take on someone who survived an encounter with my master. How ridiculously overconfident of me.

”I’ve lost.” Shen Tianfang was utterly defeated. ”However, you guessed wrong. My master isn’t my trump card. He’s not on Qingfeng Road, and I’ve already used all my cards.”

”Was it the Gun God who ordered you to kill me?” Ye Xiu asked.

”Yes,” Shen Tianfang nodded.

Ye Xiu was taken aback. ”You answered so readily?”

”If you could break Han and the sniper, you can definitely break me. Since that’s the case, I might as well tell you whatever you want to know,” Shen Tianfang said.

”Why did the Gun God order you to kill me?” Ye Xiu asked. I know the Gun God, and we’re quite familiar with each other, but that was only when I was wearing the Huang Quan Suit. He doesn’t know that Huang Quan is me, and he has never seen my real face. So, there is absolutely no reason for the Gun God to order Shen Tianfang to kill me.

”My master has allied himself with the Long Family,” Shen Tianfang explained. ”It was the Long Family who ordered my master to kill you. My master felt you weren’t worthy of his personal attention, so he sent me instead.”

”What?” This time, Ye Xiu was genuinely astonished. ”The Gun God retired a year ago. Why would he ally himself with the Long Family?”

”To defeat Huang Quan,” Shen Tianfang said. ”My master tried to kill Huang Quan nine times and failed every single time. He couldn’t accept it. In his pursuit of greater strength, he allied with the Long Family.”

Ye Xiu’s brow furrowed. The Gun God has tried to kill me nine times, yet I never killed him in return. First, because I respected his talent. Second, I was using him to hone my own marksmanship and sniping skills. Now that the Gun God has allied with the Long Family, he can no longer be spared!

Ye Xiu took out his phone and sent a text to You Ming: ”Monitor Shen Tianfang’s calls and lock onto the location of whoever he contacts.”

After sending the message, he said to Shen Tianfang, ”Call the Gun God. Tell him I’m dead. He’ll definitely ask how you did it. Just make up a story.”

”Alright.” Shen Tianfang readily complied, taking out his phone to call the Gun God.

He wasn’t afraid of Ye Xiu’s torture. He revealed the Gun God’s alliance with the Long Family and willingly made the call for one simple reason: to lure the Gun God to Qingfeng Road to kill Ye Xiu personally.

Just as Ye Xiu had predicted, when Shen Tianfang reported that he’d killed Ye Xiu, the Gun God actually asked for the details of how he did it. This shocked Shen Tianfang. Ye Xiu understands the Gun God far too well.

He hung up.

”Alright, what else do you need me to do?” Shen Tianfang asked.

”Write down a list of all your subordinates and their identities, as well as a complete list of every member of your intelligence network and their identities,” Ye Xiu said.

”Okay.” Shen Tianfang got some paper and a pen and meticulously wrote out a detailed list of all the personnel Ye Xiu wanted.

While he was writing, a text message arrived from You Ming: ”We’ve locked onto the location of the person Shen Tianfang called. He’s right here on Qingfeng Road.”

Oh? Right here on Qingfeng Road?

Ye Xiu replied, ”It’s the Gun God. Send his location to Mo Luo and have him take the Gun God out.”

A message from You Ming came back: ”Understood!”

”I’m done writing.” Shen Tianfang handed the list to Ye Xiu. ”Is there anything else you need me to do?”

”Our business is concluded. Now for a less critical matter.” Ye Xiu handed the list to Leng Yue before turning back to Shen Tianfang and asking, ”Do you love Xia Xue?”

At this question, Xia Xue, who was standing behind the sofa, trembled and stared nervously at Shen Tianfang.

”Love? Ha...” Shen Tianfang scoffed. ”Do heirs of great families have the luxury of talking about love? You’re well aware of the Shen Family’s situation. As an illegitimate son, I have even less right to discuss such things.”

At his words, the face behind Xia Xue’s mask turned ashen white.

”So you’re saying you married Xia Xue on the orders of Shen Songshan, Shen Qilin, or Shen Shihao?” Ye Xiu asked.

”That’s right,” Shen Tianfang nodded.

”The Shen Family ordered you to marry Xia Xue to gain the Heavenly Dragon Sect as an ally. So why did you poison her and paralyze her legs?” Ye Xiu asked.

”You...” Shen Tianfang was aghast. ”How do you know about that?”

Xia Xue’s eyes widened, her face behind the mask a picture of disbelief. He poisoned me? Is that why I was suddenly paralyzed three years ago?

”How I know is not your concern. Just answer the question,” Ye Xiu said coldly.

”That woman is insane!” Shen Tianfang said with a look of utter disgust. ”She used ’loving me’ as an excuse to cling to me every single day. If I wanted to do anything I enjoyed, I had to sneak around. It was infuriating. But after I poisoned her and left her paralyzed, I was completely free. I could do whatever I wanted, play however I wanted. All I had to do was go back and whisper a few sweet nothings in her ear each day...”
