Chapter 89
Demon Boy
Qin Mo did not recognize the man in front of him, but Huo Shaochong revealed his name in a single sentence.
"Demon Child? You're the Demon Child of the Blue Lions!"
"One of the four guardians of the Green Lion Society!" Zhuang Xue'e exclaimed in shock and anger, "The Green Lion Society has actually colluded with the Divine Continent Chamber of Commerce!"
Anyone who frequents Xichuan has heard of the name "Demon Child".
He wasn't the strongest of the four guardians, but he was certainly the most insane.
I heard that although he was born with superhuman strength, he was also violent and a born killer.
Moreover, he doesn't care about power or status at all; he only submits to the strong.
Like a heartless killing machine, simply enjoying the killing.
This person is a close confidant of the leader of the Green Lion Society.
His presence here is enough to demonstrate the Blue Lions' stance.
As they spoke, the burly man at the gate ignored them.
Zhu Maodian, who had just left, reappeared at the gate with his men.
He still had a smile on his face, but now his smile was only sinister.
"As expected of the young master of the Divine Dragon Army, the future marshal of the Divine Dragon Army, I really can't hide anything from you."
Qin Mo understood.
Zhuang Huaisheng wouldn't be so foolish as to meet with Zhu Maodian on the territory of the Shenzhou Chamber of Commerce.
So they chose this compromise location.
But this restaurant is the territory of the Green Lions Club.
Regardless of whether the cooperation between the China Chamber of Commerce and the Green Lions Club is temporary or premeditated.
Today, it's not just Zhu Maodian dealing with them alone.
They must have been acting on orders from Lei Yunlong.
Qin Mo glanced at Zhuang Huaisheng out of the corner of his eye; the latter had already stood up with the help of the butler.
They are currently trapped in the restaurant, with eighteen floors of buildings outside the window, unable to get out or retreat.
But Zhuang Huaisheng showed no fear and remained completely calm.
Qin Mo raised an eyebrow slightly: The old man is indeed a person who has been in a high position for a long time; he is quite calm.
Although Huo Shaochong's face was ashen, he remained calm.
He gestured with one hand behind his back to Fan Hongye and his fellow disciples, signaling them to notify the Divine Dragon Army.
He himself took the initiative to stand up and deal with Zhu Maodian.
"Zhu Maodian, how dare you!"
"Knowing who I am, you still dare to attack Elder Zhuang in front of me?"
Huo Shaochong was confident that, given his status, even if the president of the Green Lion Society were here, he wouldn't dare to make a move easily.
Based on this alone, he felt he could suppress Zhu Maodian.
Clearly, Fan Hongye and his fellow disciples felt the same way.
No matter how arrogant the Green Lion Society is in Xichuan, it is ultimately just an underground organization.
What makes them comparable to the Divine Dragon Army?
But Zhu Maodian's words quickly proved them wrong.
"Hehe, Young Master Huo, I recognized you the moment you walked in, but I still made my move."
"I did initially consider your status and didn't want to involve you."
"But my best plan was ruined by this kid."
"Even if I let you go today, I'm doomed anyway, so I might as well... leave you here too, and stir up the waters of the Western Sea completely!"
Zhu Maodian's expression was ruthless, showing no trace of flattery.
Sure enough, a dog that bites doesn't bark.
Huo Shaochong's expression changed drastically, and he was furious:
"You dare!"
"What is there to be afraid of?"
Zhu Maodian smiled sinisterly: "And I'm very curious, now that the young master of the Divine Dragon Army has died in Xichuan, will Huo Tianjin come in person?"
Qin Mo narrowed his eyes slightly: Zhu Maodian, no, it should be the person behind him, actually wants to make a move against Huo Tianjin or even the Shenlong Army?
He keenly sensed that today's events were far more complex than a simple conflict within the martial arts world.
However, Huo Shaochong was so enraged that he couldn't think of that much.
At this moment, Wei Xinran delivered another devastating message: "Young Master, the signal has been cut off!"
Even their satellite phones were affected, making it impossible for them to contact the Shenlong Army's garrison there.
They were caught in a trap.
Even Huo Shaochong's face paled at this moment.
But he still showed some responsibility, and spoke in a low voice:
"Sister Xinran, Hongye and I will stop them in a bit. You take Grandpa Zhuang and Xue'e and figure out a way to leave."
Fan Hongye nodded, "That's right, Junior Sister, you should follow the Young Master's arrangements."
"Apart from the Demon Child, the rest are just a bunch of lackeys, nothing to fear."
"Young Master, you'll take care of the others. As for Demon Child, I'll deal with him."
He was very confident, and even when surrounded by people, he remained arrogant.
Zhuang Xue'e was somewhat worried: "But the Demon Child is a free spirit in the mortal realm, you..."
Fan Hongye was not displeased by her questioning; instead, he smiled, as if he had been waiting for this moment.
"To be honest, I actually broke through to the Free and Easy Mortal Realm half a year ago, but I didn't announce it to the outside world."
"The Demon Child is just a bloodthirsty brute, while I am a battle-hardened warrior."
"He's miles inferior to me!"
Upon hearing that Fan Hongye had already broken through to the Free and Easy Mortal Realm, Huo Shaochong and Wei Xinran both showed excitement.
"That's great, Senior Brother! With you here, we'll definitely be safe and sound!"
"good!"
Huo Shaochong nodded excitedly, "Apart from the Demon Child, none of the others are martial artists. A cultivator in the Free Mortal Realm could easily take on fifty of them!"
"With me and Sister Xinran on the side, we're enough to break through."
As long as he could leave this building, Zhu Maodian wouldn't dare to touch them again.
Zhuang Xue'e, who was initially full of worries, felt much more at ease after hearing their encouraging words.
Zhuang Huaisheng remained calm throughout and did not object to the arrangements made by the younger generation.
After considering for a moment, Qin Mo took the initiative to say, "I'll stay and help. You take Elder Zhuang and the others out first."
He looked at Huo Shaochong.
In a time of crisis, he offered genuine advice.
Unfortunately, Huo Shaochong did not appreciate it and even showed disgust.
"Enough! What time is it? Do you still want to show off?"
"Don't think that just because you have a few fancy moves, you can call yourself a martial arts master."
"Real combat and martial arts demonstrations are not the same. Your little bit of skill is only good for dealing with small fry."
Wei Xinran rolled her eyes, clearly annoyed.
"Enough already. If you hadn't angered Zhu Maodian, we might not be in this situation."
"Help? You're lucky if you don't drag us down!"
Qin Mo was somewhat speechless.
If he hadn't stopped it, the Soul-Seducing Gu would have immediately burrowed into Elder Zhuang's body once it got close.
Now it's even his fault?
However, he didn't want to waste his breath at this time.
He advised, "I just want to remind you that that demon child is not simple; he..."
But before he could finish speaking, Fan Hongye interrupted him sharply.
"Heh, he's not simple, but are we really that weak?"
"My junior sister and I have been on the battlefield, and you wouldn't believe the number of people we've killed."
"Alright, enough nonsense, just obediently follow Elder Zhuang and the others."
"Otherwise, I won't care about you anymore!"
At this point, Zhu Maodian also lost his patience.
"Old Zhuang, things have come to this point. Since you won't even give me a single word, then don't blame me for being ruthless."
"If you have someone to blame, blame this troublesome kid next to you."
"Otherwise, I wouldn't have let you die such a humiliating death..."
He raised his hand and pressed it down.
"Leave no one alive."
