Inside the carriage, Liu Chengshi’s face was stern. He was aware that the person who could silently neutralize his guards without him noticing must be at least a Sixth Grade Martial Artist like himself.
To be honest, although Liu Chengshi is from the Liu family, his experiences and trials along the way were not less than others’. When he broke through to become a Sixth Grade Martial Artist ten years ago, he realized he had no more potential for progress in Martial Arts. As a result, he shifted his focus onto business and power.
However, even so, Liu Chengshi was considered a master among Sixth Grade Martial Artists thanks to his intermediate level of Martial Studies and skills. Gently picking up the long sword that was set aside, he slowly stepped out of the carriage.
However, when he stepped out and saw who was blocking the path of his carriage, his face suddenly changed.
…
It was a dark night with high winds, perfect for murder and arson.
Having sensed the Liu family’s intent to strike at him, Pei Xuanjing naturally wouldn’t sit around waiting for death. After Liu Chengshi left, he followed behind without any hesitation, sword in hand.
As for the departure of the Liu family’s manager, Pei Xuanjing watched him go without trying to stop him. He even let him leave.
According to their plan, Pei Xuanjing would stay in the manor as bait to lure the Liu family into sending assassins, giving them an opportunity to counter-ambush their master.
Then, Pei Xuanjing would quietly leave and pursue Liu Chengshi, in order to eliminate this powerful figure from the Liu family and cut off a major arm of their power base.
Therefore, since Shen Xiang and others agreed to his plan, they needed to do something to reassure each other, so they could truly be seen as being on the same side.
As a result, Liu Chengshi, who was holding the upper hand, didn’t rush to attack but instead watched how the other party would react with a rare smile.
Pei Xuanjing saw the seven or eight people who appeared behind him. He sighed lightly, his gaze landing on one of them, “Brother Shen, why bother?”
Upon hearing Pei Xuanjing’s words, the man’s figure trembled slightly as he hoarsely replied, “You’ve mistaken me for someone else.”
Ignoring his denial, Pei Xuanjing just smiled without commenting.
Liu Chengshi, on the other hand, wanted to see how ridiculous Pei Xuanjing would look when he realized he’s been betrayed. He bluntly revealed the man’s identity, “Brother Shen, now that you’ve been recognized, why bother to keep hiding your identity? After all, he’s doomed today. Are you unwilling to fulfill even a dying man’s wish? I heard he once saved your life, making him your savior.”
“Liu Chengshi, you old bastard,” Shen Xiang exclaimed as he removed his hat, revealing his face. He first scolded Liu Chengshi before guiltily looking at Pei Xuanjing, remaining silent as he was unsure of what to say.
Liu Chengshi didn’t care about Shen Xiang’s scolding. To him, Shen Xiang was nothing compared to declining interest of the Shen family’s head, Shen Mei. Maybe he would even slaughter this little annoyance tonight.
However, what surprised him was Pei Xuanjing’s reaction. Liu Chengshi expected that after his revelation, Pei Xuanjing would be enraged and lose his sanity.
Unexpectedly, after his words, Pei Xuanjing’s expression remained calm. He looked at Liu Chengshi, who was laughing arrogantly, and asked, “So, are those your last words, Mr. Liu?”
“Hahaha… Do young people nowadays always behave so arrogantly?” laughed Liu Chengshi after hearing Pei Xuanjing’s words.
Even the men, who had blocked off the rear with Shen Xiang, started to laugh.
“Hahahaha… huh!”
However, just a moment later, Liu Chengshi’s laughter stopped abruptly, as if someone had just strangled him.
