"Lin Xuan, don't get too smug," Chen Mo said through gritted teeth. "You're only riding high right now because Boss Su is protecting you. Without Boss Su, you're nothing!"
It was so hateful.
How great it would have been if his plan had succeeded this time.
Lin Xuan would have been trampled into the mud by him.
And Jingyue would have become his wife.
Now that he had failed, all his wishes had come to nothing.
Damn it!
Damn it all!
"Chen Mo, I think you should hold off on the tough talk and start worrying about yourself," Lin Xuan said, raising an eyebrow.
Chen Mo's heart skipped a beat. He gritted his teeth and asked, "Lin Xuan, what exactly do you want to do?"
Lin Xuan raised an eyebrow. "What do I want to do?"
"Naturally, I want to torture you thoroughly. My favorite recreational game just so happens to be torturing people, and... killing them."
Chen Mo forced down the fear in his heart. "Lin Xuan, you can't do anything to me. Doing this is breaking the law!"
"Breaking the law?"
Lin Xuan raised an eyebrow. "With my abilities, do you think I can't dispose of you without anyone ever knowing?"
"Do you know that I've cleared out these two floors of the hotel? Whatever commotion happens in this room, no one will hear a thing."
If they couldn't even dispose of an ordinary person without a trace, then their Golden Dragon Gang wouldn't need to exist in the underworld anymore.
Chen Mo's eyes widened.
For Lin Xuan to have grown the Tianmu Group so massively in such a short amount of time, he must have used many shady methods.
Lin Xuan was right. Dealing with him would be incredibly easy.
What was more, even if Lin Xuan messed it up, he still had Boss Su to help him.
Looking at the coldness in Lin Xuan's eyes, Chen Mo felt fear.
From the very beginning, he never should have provoked Lin Xuan. Lin Xuan was a devil!
"Lin Xuan," Chen Mo said, his voice trembling. "I... I know I was wrong. Can you let me go? Rest assured, I definitely won't go against you ever again. From now on, even if I see you, I'll take a detour."
If Lin Xuan could just let him go this time, he wouldn't stay in Yundu anymore. He would hide in a place far, far away from Lin Xuan.
Chen Mo realized with absolute clarity that Lin Xuan was someone he could not afford to provoke!
"Regret it?" Lin Xuan said, raising an eyebrow. "Unfortunately, I don't sell medicine for regret."
"Chen Mo, oh, Chen Mo. Next, you're going to enjoy this nicely."
Lin Xuan simply used one hand to lift Chen Mo right off the floor.
Chen Mo's eyes widened.
How was Lin Xuan's strength so immense?
Chen Mo gritted his teeth.
No.
Since Lin Xuan refused to let him go, he couldn't just surrender without a fight.
He was a black belt in Taekwondo, after all.
Lin Xuan might not necessarily be able to beat him.
Chen Mo threw a punch at Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan effortlessly caught Chen Mo's fist.
Even though Chen Mo used all the strength in his body, he couldn't move even half an inch further toward Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan's expression remained entirely calm the whole time.
As for Chen Mo, his face looked extremely ugly.
Lin Xuan raised an eyebrow. "Chen Mo, even at a time like this, you're still thinking of resisting. Among the people I've dealt with, that's quite rare."
He could see that, deep down in his bones, Chen Mo was someone who refused to admit defeat.
If he could have just behaved himself, he could have achieved quite a bit of success in the future.
What a pity.
Chen Mo just had to provoke him.
Consider it his bad luck.
"Chen Mo," Lin Xuan said, raising an eyebrow. "You still want to resist? I'm sorry, but you are destined to fail."
Chen Mo tried to take advantage of Lin Xuan's inattention to kick him in the stomach.
Lin Xuan lifted a leg.
He firmly pressed Chen Mo's leg down.
"This..."
Disbelief surfaced in Chen Mo's eyes.
How could Lin Xuan be this incredible?
He was a Taekwondo black belt, yet in front of Lin Xuan, he didn't have the slightest ability to fight back!
Lin Xuan didn't bother tangling with Chen Mo anymore.
He delivered a kick right to Chen Mo's stomach.
With a loud bang, Chen Mo flew toward the door like a kite with a broken string.
His back slammed heavily against the door.
Chen Mo's face twisted into a mask of pain.
Chen Mo once again realized just how terrifying Lin Xuan was.
With Lin Xuan's strength, he could casually crush absolutely anyone in the Taekwondo world.
His level of Taekwondo was completely inadequate in front of Lin Xuan!
No.
Flee!
He had to flee!
Otherwise, he really was going to be beaten to death by Lin Xuan!
Chen Mo noticed that right behind him was a door.
Chen Mo's eyes lit up.
As long as he rushed out of this door, Lin Xuan wouldn't be able to do anything to him anymore.
Chen Mo attempted to open the door.
He placed his hand on the doorknob, but just as he was about to turn it, a small knife suddenly flew over and pierced the back of his hand.
"Ahhhhh—"
Chen Mo let out agonizing howls of pain.
Lin Xuan walked over.
Then, he forcefully yanked the knife out from the back of Chen Mo's hand.
"Ahhhhh—"
The moment the knife was pulled out, more wailing howls erupted from Chen Mo's mouth.
Lin Xuan curled his lips in a wicked smile. "Chen Mo, I'll say it again. Did I say you could run?"
"As long as I don't agree, you will never be able to escape."
Chen Mo used his other hand to cover the blood pouring wildly from the back of his injured hand.
"Drip."
"Drop."
The blood fell to the floor, sounding exceptionally eerie in the quiet room.
Chen Mo slumped to his knees on the floor. He looked up at Lin Xuan and said in agony, "Lin Xuan, I tried to harm you twice, but didn't I fail both times? Why do you still want to keep coming after me?"
"Chen Mo," Lin Xuan said with a smirk. "Do you still not understand? When I want to deal with someone, it doesn't matter whether you succeeded in harming me or not."
"Whether or not I let you off depends entirely on my mood. If I'm in a good mood, I might let you go. But I haven't tortured or killed anyone in a long time. Since you delivered yourself right to my doorstep, how could I possibly pass that up?"
"Chen Mo, you walked right into the line of fire. I can only make you wish you were dead."
Lin Xuan bent down again, grabbed Chen Mo by the collar with one hand, and forced him to stand up from the floor.
He threw another punch at Chen Mo.
Bang, bang, bang.
Lin Xuan's fists smashed into Chen Mo's flesh, letting out dull thuds.
Lin Xuan went into full-on torture mode against Chen Mo.
In Lin Xuan's hands, Chen Mo completely lacked the power to fight back.

e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
