Chapter 2051: Xiangnan Corpse Driving
The moment Long Qie voluntarily revealed his identity, Cao Xin was very clear in his heart that Lin Yi was already dead.
Because if Lin Yi were not dead, Xiao Zheng would never have sent someone to cause trouble for him.
Thinking of this, Cao Xin’s face was filled with deep regret and anger.
He never imagined that Lin Yi, whom he deeply trusted, would fail the mission! Although the payment for hiring Lin Yi hadn’t been sent yet, he absolutely could not endure the outcome of such a failure!
"I absolutely cannot die!"
Cao Xin gritted his teeth and thought to himself.
He then came up with a plan to try and struggle: "Gentlemen, have you mistaken me for someone else? I don’t know you at all, nor do I know who this Mr. Xiao you mentioned is. As for the Ghost Raising Family, are you filming a movie?"
It’s undeniable that Cao Xin’s mind was indeed sometimes lacking a thread.
Even at this point, he still wanted to play dumb.
A trace of disdain flashed in Long Qie’s eyes, and without a word, he signaled his men to take action. He felt that if he continued talking to Cao Xin, his own intelligence would be lowered.
The group nodded, and then charged out together!
Seeing this scene, Cao Xin was so frightened that he immediately screamed: "Help! Help! You two useless fools, hurry up and block them for me! Hurry up and block them!"
He wanted the two bodyguards to delay Sky Net members’ steps.
However, he ultimately underestimated the strength of Sky Net’s members. Among them, any one person could cleanly and efficiently kill all three of them. Not to mention so many people taking action together.
In just two or three seconds, including Cao Xin, all three were tragically dead inside the villa.
Cao Xin’s head was taken by a brother named Gu Cheng.
Long Qie would also fulfill his promise, and upon returning to headquarters, he would immediately reward him with one million in cash.
As for the other brothers who couldn’t win the big prize, they could only look at Gu Cheng foolishly with eyes full of envy. It wasn’t a matter of money; it was a kind of honor.
Every member of Sky Net was actually very wealthy, because Xiao Zheng never skimped on salaries or bonuses for his men. Describing everyone as millionaires was not an exaggeration at all.
However, honor was different, not everyone could receive a reward personally issued by Xiao Zheng or Long Qie.
A reward from such big figures was an honor in itself.
However, unfortunately, the opportunity only came once, and if they missed it, they could only hope for the same opportunity to appear next time.
After killing Cao Xin and the others, a brother came over to ask: "Mr. Long, where are we going next? Should we return directly to Yun Chuan City now? Or do we go straight back to Zhonghai?"
"Let’s head back to Yun Chuan first. Don’t forget, we’re in Xiangnan this time not just for killing Cao Xin," Long Qie said, "Tomorrow we’ll go out with the branch brothers to find out about the Ghost Raising Family."
Everyone nodded, and then immediately left the villa by the lake.
The location here was very remote, and it was a large private area, making it impossible for outsiders to get close. If there were no major accidents, it was very likely that Cao Xin and the others’ corpses would not be discovered for years or even decades...
Returning to Yun Chuan City from Hai Chuan City, it was already the early hours of the morning.
Long Qie did not take people back to the Cao Family, but instead returned directly to the branch, then had someone call Zhang Xin to have them withdraw from the Cao Family. Although Zhang Xin didn’t know whether Long Qie and the others had found anyone, upon receiving the order, he chose to withdraw without any hesitation.
Soon, Sky Net’s imposing team left Cao’s Villa.
Only after they could no longer see Sky Net’s convoy did the people of the Cao Family truly breathe a sigh of relief. They felt as if they had just woken up from a nightmare, but fortunately, now they had woken up, life after dawn was still beautiful.
Moreover, due to the successive deaths of Cao Zhenxiong and Cao Xin, some people were already pondering how to seize the position of Family Head...
Not a word was spoken that night.
At seven thirty in the morning, Long Qie got up for his morning exercise.
This was his unfailing routine, no matter where he was or how late he slept, he would wake up at this time the next day and start exercising.
A set of martial arts forms was executed by Long Qie with vigorous intensity!
When he finished, a round of applause and commendation came from beside him: "Great! That was amazing! Mr. Long, the martial arts set you just performed was truly impressive! I wonder when I’ll be able to break through to the Martial Saint Realm!"
The speaker was the head of the branch, Zhang Xin.
After watching Long Qie practice martial arts, his eyes were full of envy.
Upon hearing this, Long Qie wiped his sweat with a clean towel and said, "Your current level isn’t weak either, Grandmaster Realm, you should be able to break through to the Martial Saint Realm in about two more months."
"In at most two months, I can break through into the Martial Saint Realm? Is, is this true?" Zhang Xin asked, seemingly incredulous.
"Of course it’s true, I have no reason to lie to you," Long Qie said, "Lying to you doesn’t benefit me at all."
"Hehe, then I can be at ease." Zhang Xin grinned, "As long as I can break through to Martial Saint Realm, even if I die the next day, I’d die without regrets!"
"You boy, always spouting nonsense." Long Qie heard this and couldn’t help but laugh and scold.
As for Zhang Xin, he scratched his head in embarrassment.
After the joke, Long Qie quickly composed himself and said seriously, "No more joking, listen carefully. I have something very important to tell you. We came here, apart from being ordered to kill Cao Xin, we actually had another mission."
"Is it the mission about the Ghost Raising Family?" Zhang Xin tentatively asked.
"That’s right, you guessed it," Long Qie nodded, "Previously, in Zhonghai City, Mr. Xiao killed someone from the Ghost Raising Family. Before dying, that person sent out Mr. Xiao’s information, so Mr. Xiao wants to eradicate this so-called Ghost Raising Family as soon as possible."
"Have you heard about the Ghost Raising Family?"
Hearing this, Zhang Xin first furrowed his brow, then said solemnly, "Actually, I have indeed heard some rumors about the Ghost-raising Family. The origin of the Ghost-raising Family is probably over eight hundred years ago, and it is related to the continuously circulated Xiangnan Corpse Driving."
Xiangnan Corpse Driving?
Long Qie couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow, his heart full of curiosity and intrigue.
