Bab 194: Chapter 193
The ghostly warriors formed from sound waves charged toward Chen Ye with fierce momentum!
But Chen Ye remained unfazed.
Anyone familiar with the original story would know that the music these two played was all flashy effects—impressive on the surface but lacking real substance.
Of course, it would still be formidable to ordinary people.
With a calm expression, Chen Ye simply raised his hand and increased the output of his psychic energy, instantly dispersing the menacing soundwave warriors.
The powerful psychic blast was so strong that it almost made the two assassins, Tian Can and Di Que, kneel.
"What… what kind of technique is this?"
"It's not soundwave power; it's definitely not soundwave power…"
Seeing the two of them panic, Chen Ye snorted coldly. "The Beast almost died at my hands, and you two weaklings dare to come after me?"
Hearing this, Tian Can and Di Que were terrified out of their wits.
"Spare us! Please, spare our lives…"
Chen Ye asked calmly, "Tell me, where is the Axe Gang's leader?"
"He's… he's in that building right behind you."
As assassins, when their lives were on the line, Tian Can and Di Que had no hesitation in betraying their employer.
Hearing this, Chen Ye turned around and looked at the building across the street. With his sharp vision, he immediately spotted two heads peeking out from the fourth-floor window, trying to watch without being seen.
Chen Ye smiled faintly, raised his hand, and waved at Brother Sum and his advisor.
Then, without looking back, he walked toward the building.
Behind him, Tian Can and Di Que had their necks twisted into grotesque angles, dead beyond any doubt.
In the original story, the Landlord and Landlady had shown mercy after defeating these two. But Chen Ye was not one to show such leniency.
If you dare to try to kill him, you'd better be prepared to be killed in return. And as top assassins, Tian Can and Di Que had undoubtedly taken many lives—dying at Chen Ye's hands was not unjust.
…
Inside the building across the street.
Brother Sum and his advisor were petrified when they saw Chen Ye waving at them.
"We're done for! He saw us! Brother Sum, we need to run!" the advisor stammered, rushing to open the door.
*Crash!*
The sound of glass shattering came from behind him.
"Brother Sum?" The advisor quickly turned back. "Broth…"
He couldn't finish his sentence.
The advisor suddenly froze, standing still like a mouse caught by a cat.
There was now a third person in the room, sitting right next to Brother Sum with a hand resting on his shoulder.
The advisor knew Brother Sum well—he hated it when anyone touched his shoulder. Anyone who dared would usually end up with an ax to the head.
But now, Brother Sum was drenched in cold sweat, too terrified to do anything.
A breeze blew in from the broken window, sending a chill down the advisor's spine, though he wasn't sure if it was just the wind…
The floor was littered with broken glass, indicating that the new person had jumped straight in through the window. And this was the fourth floor…
The room was filled with an oppressive silence.
"Advisor, don't just stand there. Come and sit down," Chen Ye finally spoke, breaking the tension.
"Y-yes, sir!" The advisor quickly forced a smile and carefully took a seat at the table, sitting on the edge of his chair like a scolded child.
Once the advisor was seated, Chen Ye took out three teacups and began pouring tea as he said, "You know, ever since I became the second-in-command of the Axe Gang, the three of us have never had a chance to sit down and have tea together."
Brother Sum didn't know how to respond, but the advisor, sensing the tension, quickly laughed and said, "Second-in-command, if you want to have tea, that's easy. We can do it every day from now on."
Chen Ye smiled slightly. "I've got plenty of time, but Brother Sum probably doesn't."
At those words, Brother Sum's face turned deathly pale, and the advisor, too, lowered his head in fear, understanding the implication.
Brother Sum's mind was in turmoil, knowing that he didn't stand a chance. Even though he was armed, he didn't dare reach for his gun. After all, if explosives couldn't kill the monster sitting next to him, what good would a gun do?
Chen Ye asked, "Brother Sum, I'm curious. I already told you I wasn't interested in your position, so why did you set up this trap? What's the matter? Can't you sleep at night if I'm still alive?"
That's right! I can't sleep if you're alive!
That was what Brother Sum was thinking, but he was too scared to even speak.
"Brother Sum, you've forced me to get rid of you," Chen Ye said, ignoring the fear on Brother Sum's face and turning to the advisor.
"Advisor, from now on, I'm the leader of the Axe Gang. You're the second-in-command. All the gang's affairs will be handled by you, but no one is to disobey my orders! Do you understand?"
The advisor was stunned for a moment. He glanced at the terrified Brother Sum, then, gritting his teeth, shouted, "Understood, boss! I'll follow your orders!"
"Good. Those who adapt to the situation are wise," Chen Ye said with a smile. He then lightly tapped Brother Sum on the forehead, and Brother Sum collapsed to the floor, blood streaming from a hole in his head.
Having dealt with Brother Sum, Chen Ye stood up and said to the advisor, "Advisor—no, Second-in-command, I'll leave it to you to clean up this mess. As long as you do your job well, I'll overlook the past. But if something like this happens again, you'll be joining Brother Sum."
With that, Chen Ye left the room, leaving the advisor trembling in fear.
…
The news that the Axe Gang had a new leader spread like wildfire throughout Shanghai.
Rumors circulated that the new boss, who had once been the second-in-command, had killed Brother Sum with his own hands to take the position.
Brother Sum had been notorious throughout Shanghai—his cruelty and inhumanity were known to everyone, even to small children.
And now, this terrifying figure was dead.
Not only was he dead, but his entire empire had been taken over…
Before long, the name "Shura" spread like wildfire through the city of Shanghai.
