Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
When Chapman saw that Nan Yan and her group were not affected by the poison gas, he realized that he had underestimated them.
He had assumed that they would be poisoned and become his prisoners. However, Nan Yan was faster than he had anticipated.
As he tried to stand up, he received a kick to the chest, sending him back into his chair. The usual smile on Chapman’s face faded, replaced by a sinister glare.
He was about to press the button on the remote control again when a short blade appeared at his neck.
Nan Yan and Li Yuan acted simultaneously. Right after Nan Yan made her move, Li Yuan followed suit.
“You’d better not move,” Nan Yan warned him.
Li Yuan pushed the blade a little deeper into Chapman’s neck. Crimson blood began to flow from the wound and seeped into his collar.
With a smile that suggested he was not feeling threatened at all, Chapman said, “I won’t move. Please retract the blade a bit, and let’s have a civilized conversation.”
Nan Yan had no favorable impression of the Seven Deadly Sins members and had no intention of wasting words on him. She fed him a poison pill and used a silver needle to pierce several acupuncture points on his body.
A few seconds later, Chapman’s face turned pale, large beads of sweat forming on his forehead, and his facial features contorted in agony. The excruciating pain that Xi Shijin had endured in the past was now being experienced firsthand by Chapman.
Xi Shijin, who was already having difficulty breathing and was turning red from oxygen deprivation, watched Chapman’s suffering with a mixture of fear and realization.
He sensed that his own time to succumb to the poison was approaching rapidly. He had an intuition that Nan Yan would not provide him with an antidote this time.
He was about to meet his end…
Meanwhile, the events unfolding here had been noticed by the Seven Deadly Sins’ internal surveillance. However, with Chapman in Nan Yan’s hands, they dared not intervene directly and could only observe from the shadows.
Nan Yan and Li Yuan watched Chapman’s silent screams of agony without a trace of sympathy in their eyes. His current suffering was nothing compared to what they had inflicted on Bai Chen and Shen Junqing.
If it weren’t for the fact that they had not yet rescued their comrades, Nan Yan would have already killed him several times over.
Ten minutes later, Chapman had endured unimaginable pain, almost losing half his life. He was soaked in sweat, looking as if he had just been pulled out of water. The fear in his eyes when he glanced at Nan Yan was now accompanied by deep resentment.
As one of the Seven Deadly Sins’ Seven Enforcers, he hadn’t experienced such suffering in many years.
But now that he was suffering like this within the confines of his own stronghold, how could he possibly swallow his pride?
“You have two choices before you now,” Nan Yan stated coldly, “First, exchange the hostages – you for the two of them.”
“Second, I kill you and then rescue them.”
“What’s your decision?”
Nan Yan had no intention of alerting the others. This time, she only wanted to take Shen Junqing and Bai Chen with her. Revenge for them could wait for another time; she couldn’t risk anything happening to the two of them.
Unfortunately, things didn’t go as planned. When she and Xi Shijin had first arrived, they had raised suspicions in Chapman’s mind. He had set a trap, waiting for her to walk into it, hoping to capture them all at once.
However, his overconfidence had led to his own downfall, as he had fallen into her hands.
Chapman’s voice was hoarse and filled with a dark tone as he asked, “Aren’t you afraid that if you harm me, they’ll end up as lifeless corpses in front of you?”
Nan Yan was even more menacing and ruthless, “Then I’ll make the entire
Seven Deadly Sins accompany them to the grave.”
Her bloodthirsty, crimson eyes looked towards the surveillance cameras on the wall, and she declared with a chilling presence, “I know you can hear me. Today, I only came for these two. I don’t want to resort to bloodshed. But if you dare harm them in any way, I won’t hesitate to take you all down with me!”
Her threat had a powerful impact. Those who had initially planned to eliminate Bai Chen and Shen Junqing, delivering their lifeless bodies to her, abruptly stopped in their tracks.
Somehow, they actually believed that Nan Yan had the power to kill them all.
Li Yuan gently placed his hand on her shoulder, offering reassurance. Her emotions were getting out of control, and she was on the brink of succumbing to her inner rage. The tremendous pressure she felt was due to Bai Chen and Shen Junqing being injured and in danger.
If something were to happen to the two of them, the guilt and self-blame would likely drive her to madness.
With Li Yuan’s calming presence, Nan Yan’s emotions subsided somewhat.. She stared at Chapman expressionlessly, her voice as cold as if it came from the abyss, “Chapman, so do you want to live or die?”
