Chapter 307: Chapter 307: I Kill Huang Quan Easily

”Aren’t you afraid I’ll kill you once I get out?” Ye Xiu asked coldly, putting on a menacing act.

”You won’t get out!” Shen Shicheng boasted. ”The walls and doors of the underground cells are made of alloy. Even a War God imprisoned inside wouldn’t have a chance to escape.”

Ye Xiu felt that the act had gone far enough. He asked, ”Shen Shijie, I was ambushed by Shen Monong and Shen Shicheng while trying to save you. Aren’t you going to say something?”

He had always felt that within the entire Shen Family, Shen Shijie, who had devoted his life to art, was the one who least deserved to die. This was the perfect opportunity to test him.

”I...” Outside the cell, Shen Shijie suddenly became conflicted. He looked guiltily at Shen Monong and Shen Shicheng and said, ”Monong, Shicheng, although Ye Xiu is an enemy of the Shen Family, it was the Shen Family who wronged him first. They even killed his mother and grandparents. His revenge on the Shen Family is justified, but you imprisoned him after he saved me. That’s truly ungrateful.”

”Uncle, you can’t show such misplaced mercy,” Shen Shicheng urged. ”If Ye Xiu doesn’t die, the Shen Family will certainly perish. Even though he saved you, for the sake of the Shen Family, he must die.”

”Shicheng, a family like the Shens isn’t worth being a part of. Have you ever felt even a bit of kinship growing up?” Shen Shijie sighed, patting Shen Shicheng’s shoulder. ”I know you covet the Shen Family’s wealth, but what do you need all that money for? If you’re short on cash, your uncle can give you some. Besides, even if you kill Ye Xiu, there’s no guarantee your great-grandfather will hand the Shen Corporation over to you. Ye Xiu is a good person, a Divine Doctor. He can save many lives if he’s allowed to live. Let’s just release him.”

Hearing this, Ye Xiu inwardly forgave Shen Shijie.

I didn’t misjudge him! This man, who had been timid since childhood—so much so that he could be startled to tears by his own fart—and was devoted to art his entire life, was always ostracized and bullied by the Shen Family, yet he had never done anything wrong. It would be a true pity if he died!

”Uncle, even if you argue until the sky falls, I won’t release Ye Xiu. He is my stepping stone into the core of the Shen Family, and I’m counting on using him to soar to great heights,” Shen Shicheng said resolutely.

Seeing that he couldn’t persuade Shen Shicheng, Shen Shijie turned to Shen Monong. ”Monong, convince Shicheng to let Ye Xiu go.”

”If we release him, what will happen to you?” Shen Monong replied. ”You know how temperamental Great-grandfather is. If Ye Xiu doesn’t die, he’ll lock you in the dungeon for life.”

”Sister Monong, please take Uncle outside. I’ll call Great-grandfather,” Shen Shicheng urged.

”Alright!” Shen Monong said, pulling Shen Shijie away.

As he was being pulled away, Shen Shijie shouted, ”Ye Xiu, I’ll find a way to persuade my father and grandfather to spare your life...!”

Heh. As if Shen Songshan and Shen Qilin would ever listen to you.

Ye Xiu surveyed the interior of the cell, flicked a finger to destroy the camera, and muttered to himself, ”I just hope Shen Songshan tells the Gun God about my imprisonment.”

Ye Xiu knew very well that the Long Family had sent the Gun God to Qingfeng Road not just to kill him, but also to confirm if there was a dragon-shaped pattern on his left arm. And the Gun God would never let the Shen Family take credit for that. Therefore, Ye Xiu was certain that the Gun God would come as soon as he learned of his imprisonment. The only thing he wasn’t sure of was whether Shen Songshan would tell the Gun God about it.

「...」

At that moment, Shen Songshan and Shen Qilin had just finished a press conference where they announced the Shen Family’s withdrawal from the Shen Corporation. Suddenly, Shen Songshan received a call from Shen Shicheng. After listening, he was stunned.

”Dad, what happened?” Shen Qilin asked, seeing Shen Songshan’s grim expression.

”Those two idiots, Shen Shicheng and Shen Monong, used a scheme to imprison Ye Xiu in the dungeon,” Shen Songshan said angrily.

Shen Qilin’s face paled. ”Then we must hurry back and release him! If he realizes he can’t escape the dungeon and reveals the secret of the Blood Pill, Huang Quan will be here to annihilate the Shen Family in minutes!”

”Let’s go, hurry home!” Shen Songshan shouted, sprinting toward the parking lot. For a man in his nineties, he ran incredibly fast.

However, when he and Shen Qilin arrived at the underground parking garage, they found a young man with blond hair and blue eyes standing beside their car.

”Who are you? Why are you standing by my car?” Shen Qilin asked.

”Are you asking for my Xuanse name or my foreign name?” the Gun God, Smith, said without expression.

”Tell us both,” Shen Qilin said.

”My Xuanse name is Long Feng, and my foreign name is Smith,” Smith replied.

When Shen Songshan and Shen Qilin heard the name Long Feng, their hearts skipped a beat. They instantly realized Smith had been sent by the Long Family. But when they heard the name Smith, Shen Songshan exclaimed, ”Are you the Gun God, Smith?”

”Correct,” Smith nodded.

Shen Songshan and Shen Qilin looked at each other in shock. The globally renowned Gun God of the Underworld was actually a member of the Long Family.

”What did the Lord of the Long Family send you to Qingfeng Road to do?” Shen Songshan asked.

”To kill Ye Xiu,” Smith stated. ”However, I’m unfamiliar with Qingfeng Road, so finding him will be difficult. I need the Shen Family’s help.”

”That’s no problem,” Shen Songshan readily agreed before changing the topic to probe further. ”I heard you failed to kill Huang Quan nine times. Now that he’s in Jin Ye City, have you not made a tenth attempt?”

”I will go kill Huang Quan after I’ve killed Ye Xiu,” Smith said with an air of dominance.

Shen Songshan and Shen Qilin exchanged glances, silently marveling at Smith’s arrogance.

Shen Songshan tested the waters again. ”You’ve been missing for a year. Are you now confident you can kill Huang Quan?”

”Of course. As I am now, killing Huang Quan will be effortless,” the Gun God said, brimming with confidence. This wasn’t bravado; he was genuinely certain.

Seeing the Gun God’s absolute confidence, Shen Songshan and Shen Qilin suddenly started laughing. Since the Gun God was confident he could kill Huang Quan, they no longer needed to release Ye Xiu. They could simply go home and kill him themselves. Then, they would toss Ye Xiu’s body in front of Smith. When Ye Xiu’s friends spread the news about the Blood Pill, it would draw Huang Quan to the Shen Family, and Smith could eliminate him with a single shot.

”Let’s exchange contact information. We’ll call you once we have Ye Xiu’s whereabouts,” Shen Songshan said.

”No need to call. Just send me an email,” Smith replied, tossing Shen Songshan a slip of paper with an email address on it. He was worried his phone might be tapped by Ye Xiu and didn’t dare use it to contact them.

As they watched Smith walk away, Shen Qilin asked, ”Dad, can the Gun God really kill Huang Quan?”

”In today’s world, only Blood Demon has ever taken a direct slash from Ye Xiu and escaped with his life. The Gun God, on the other hand, is the only person whose strength is equal to Huang Quan’s. In the past, neither could kill the other. His confidence now means he has definitely acquired the power to kill Huang Quan.” Shen Songshan had complete faith in Smith.

”In that case, let’s hurry home and kill Ye Xiu,” Shen Qilin urged.

”Let’s go!”
