Hades, the Urban Legend

Chapter 154: Chapter 154 I'm Not Intimidating

"Flaw?" Li Muhua's eyes flickered with suspicion.

At this moment, both Li Meng and the two bodyguards were a bit impatient. Li Meng urged, "Second Young Master, this guy's brain spins faster than wheels. It's better to kill him quickly and throw him into the sea to feed the fish!"

"No," Li Muhua said, "I'm very interested to know what Mr. Yang means by 'flaw.'"

"Instead of calling it a flaw, it's more like an extremely unreasonable thing," Yang Chen pondered for a moment before saying, "Between the time we received the phone call from the so-called thugs and afterward, it was less than ten minutes in total. And during this time, Li Mucheng actually ran out of the room and knew about the thugs planting the biochemical bomb. If he were truly just a wastrel who indulged in pleasure-seeking, how could he know such a confidential matter? And who would tell him about it? Even the management of the estate only has a handful of people who know about it. To avoid causing panic, they even blocked this news. So, why would anyone bother telling him this series of events? And in such a timely manner. Isn't there a fear that he might blabber and cause trouble?"

"That does seem unreasonable, but precisely because of this, shouldn't Mr. Yang suspect my elder brother instead of me?" Li Muhua asked.

"On the contrary," Yang Chen smiled, "Such an obvious flaw, even I, an outsider, have noticed and become suspicious. But you, as a member of the Li family, not only have no suspicions, but are so certain that everything is related to the Xus. I'm puzzled. Since you are currently the most outstanding heir of the Li family, the CEO of Muyun, how could you be more foolish than your brother, who pretends to be insane? All of this, in the end, has only one explanation: you're also pretending to be foolish, but your method is different. You're pretending to be 'culturally foolish,' appearing friendly to everyone on the surface, showing respect and affection to your elder brother, and even filial piety to your father. But isn't this just another way of concealing?"

Li Muhua finally felt moved. This series of analyses, though lacking substantial evidence, laid out his flaws too clearly! However, it was incredible that this man could discern his long-planned scheme from such subtle clues.

Monique also felt a surge of palpitation from Yang Chen's words. She was also a firsthand witness to these events but had never harbored any suspicion. Of course, she didn't consider herself foolish; she could only say that Yang Chen's observation skills were truly terrifying.

Thinking that the man she liked had such a side, Monique was filled with joy. But now, it seemed like they had reached a dead end.

Oh well, being able to die with him didn't seem too bad. Women are emotional creatures, and with this thought, Monique's heart wasn't too bitter.

"It's a pity. If Mr. Yang could be of use to me, perhaps we could have become good friends," Li Muhua said regretfully.

"Let it go," Yang Chen waved his hand, "I dare not befriend someone who can even kill his own brother."

"Maybe I've said too much. Both of you will be leaving this world tonight, so these words don't mean much," Li Muhua thought of being able to kill Yang Chen here, and his heart felt much calmer.

Turning away, Li Muhua left Yang Chen and Monique with his back, waving his hand at them as if bidding farewell forever.

Seeing that Li Muhua had no intention of speaking further, Li Meng, who had been holding a gun all this while, smirked, and said to Yang Chen, "Goodbye, Mr. Yang, Miss Monique."

"I suggest you don't shoot. I don't want to kill in front of a woman," Yang Chen said somewhat displeased. If it weren't for Monique by his side, he would have torn this guy holding a gun in half long ago.

"Fool, do you think I, Li Meng, am easily frightened?!" Li Meng sneered.

With that said, Li Meng unhesitatingly pulled the trigger.

"Bang."

The gunshot rang out again, but this time, no one fell!

Li Meng's pupils dilated instantly, and he slowly lowered his head in disbelief.

At some point, Yang Chen had already moved in front of Li Meng, a steel-like hand gripping Li Meng's neck.

Yang Chen's eyes were like dead, dull gray areas, lifeless, devoid of focus.

"Let me tell you something too. I don't intimidate people; I only kill them."

As Yang Chen's deep voice fell, the hand gripping Li Meng's throat suddenly exerted force!

"Crack!"

Li Meng didn't even have time to react or resist. His fragile throat was forcefully pierced by Yang Chen's fingers! With a powerful tug, a mass of bloody flesh was torn from Li Meng's throat!

"Ahh!"

Monique couldn't bear such a bloody scene. After a startled scream, she fainted and collapsed to the ground.

Li Muhua and the two bodyguards, who had originally intended to leave, suddenly turned around. What they saw was Li Meng's body lying on the ground, blood gushing from his severed artery, his eyes wide with resentment.

As if he had just done something insignificant, Yang Chen waved his left hand, shaking off the organ and flesh above it onto the ground. But his body was already stained red with blood, splattering onto his face.

Lifting his head, under those gray eyes, Yang Chen's mouth curved into an excited arc.

"Do you like this way of dying, Li's second son? Do you want to experience it?"

With that, Yang Chen's vermilion tongue licked the corner of his lips, savoring the scorching blood that had splashed onto them.

Li Muhua swore to the heavens that he was not a coward! His ability to carry out this series of insane plans was enough to show that his courage far exceeded that of an average person!

But at this moment, witnessing Yang Chen tearing out Li Meng's neck organ alive, Li Muhua felt his stomach convulsing, a deep-seated fear corroding his heart!

"Fire! Shoot! Kill this lunatic!"

Realizing that the situation was dire, Li Muhua didn't forget to command the two equally terrified and motionless bodyguards.

The two bodyguards had long been frightened by such a bloody scene, pulling out their handguns like robots, and began to pull the triggers at Yang Chen!

"Bang! Bang! Bang..."

A series of bullets flew past Yang Chen, but almost none hit their mark.

The bodyguards' hands were trembling, and the bullets were flying aimlessly!

Yang Chen paid no attention, step by step, slowly approaching Li Muhua, as if every bullet was perfectly calculated by him and dodged effortlessly!

The bodyguards' Glock pistols only had eight bullets, and after they were all fired, the continuous pulling of the trigger only produced the sound of empty magazines clicking!

At this moment, with a sinister smile on his face, Yang Chen had already walked to a distance of less than two meters!

The two bodyguards were petrified. They couldn't understand how anyone could dodge bullets!

"Ahh! Don't come any closer."

The two bodyguards screamed in terror. At this moment, they didn't care about protecting Li Muhua anymore and turned to run away as fast as they could.

But Yang Chen wouldn't let them go so easily. With a flicker, he had already crossed Li Muhua, and his hands suddenly grabbed the back of the two bodyguards' shirts.

The bodyguards were clad in high-quality black suits. Despite Yang Chen forcefully dragging them down, their clothes didn't tear apart but instead forcibly pulled them back!

"Where do you think you're going?" Yang Chen asked as if speaking to himself. The two bodyguards, still holding onto their shirts, hadn't even had a chance to struggle before they felt their bodies lifted into the air!

Li Muhua, from behind, had the clearest view. He saw Yang Chen effortlessly lift the two bodyguards, one in each hand, using the force of their attempted escape to propel them backward!

The two burly bodyguards were tossed into the air like toy figurines, tracing high arcs before crashing heavily onto the concrete ground.

The intense impact caused both of them to cough up blood and lose consciousness on the spot!

Li Muhua was stunned. As a black belt in Taekwondo, he had an exceptional level of combat skills. Even the most powerful Taekwondo masters internationally wouldn't be able to pull off the moves Yang Chen just did!

That wasn't something a human could achieve in terms of speed and strength!

It was monstrous.

"Don't come any closer," Li Muhua said in fear. He began to retreat, holding a handgun, but he didn't have the courage to aim it at Yang Chen anymore. Even though his marksmanship was absolutely top-notch, his only thought at the moment was how to escape!

Yang Chen wiped the blood off his face and looked at Li Muhua as if he were examining prey. "What's wrong? Didn't you say goodbye to me and let me depart from this world? Why aren't you shooting?"

Li Muhua swallowed hard, saying nothing, and continued to retreat.

However, in his distraction, Li Muhua's heel accidentally touched the body of the deceased Li Meng.

"Ah!"

Li Muhua exclaimed in shock, sitting down on the ground. Before him was the ground stained red with Li Meng's blood!

Yang Chen approached slowly, smiling at Li Muhua.

Muscles all over Li Muhua's body began to spasm, his limbs stiffening as he slowly moved backward. But soon, even the courage to move left him.

Never before had someone's gaze made Li Muhua feel so hopeless. It was like the gaze of a lion facing a rabbit.

Your life, your death, all decided in an instant!

Li Muhua wasn't a rabbit; in fact, in the eyes of anyone else, he might have been seen as a mighty lion. However, at this moment, he painfully realized that it wasn't his own weakness but rather the opponent's strength that exceeded his comprehension!

Yang Chen slowly crouched down, neither sad nor happy, looking at Li Muhua before him, who seemed frozen, pale-faced, lacking the usual vibrant demeanor of a young CEO.

"Do you think I should kill you? Or spare you?" Yang Chen asked.

"I beg you, please don't kill me," Li Muhua said from the depths of his heart.

Yang Chen raised an eyebrow. "Are you so sure I dare to kill you? You're the heir of the Li family and the CEO of Muyun, after all."

"No! You... you're capable of doing anything. I know you're not afraid to kill me," Li Muhua said, on the verge of tears, summoning all his courage with each word.

Yang Chen pondered for a moment, then smiled and said, "How about this? Weren't we here to negotiate? I've looked at the terms of the negotiation. Regarding the profit sharing for this cooperation, the Li family, for providing the most crucial technology, has a fifty percent stake. But don't you think that's a bit too much?"

Upon hearing a glimmer of hope for his life, Li Muhua immediately regained his confidence and cautiously said, "Yes, it is too much, Mr. Yang. How much of the share do you intend to allocate for Yulei? Whatever share you want is fine!"

As long as he had his life, money meant nothing!

Yang Chen remained silent, his mouth curling into a playful arc.

But in Li Muhua's eyes at this moment, such a smile was no different from a demon's grin!
