Chapter 87

Ye Yun naturally paid no attention to Zhang Yuoshan's ugly face.

In fact, he had been thinking about two things all along.

What role did Cang Xing play in this main mission of the faction... or rather, what was his ultimate goal?

What did the crossbow tooth controller mean when he said that besides K, there was another target, which was himself?

Regarding the former, if Cang Xing was simply trying to swindle Zhang Yuoshan and Roger's money, it wasn't wrong from a profit perspective. However, Ye Yun felt that there was something he should figure out in Cang Xing's words, and this might be Cang Xing's ultimate goal.

As for the latter, why did the mysterious organization have another target, which was himself? Or how?

Kill me? Or take something from me? If their target is the Great Yang Fire on my body, how would they take it?

Clearly, in Cang Xing's words, "This is probably why the gap between me and you will quickly narrow and then widen," Ye Yun had no doubt that this snake-like man had discovered some truth, and it was a truth that could greatly enhance his own strength!

So, what did his words and the so-called 'rebirth' mean?

Ye Yun was very confused.

On the other side, Cang Xing said with a smile, "Don't worry, this time I don't want money, I just want... hehe, just two lives."

"Whose lives?"

"Whose lives?"

Roger and Zhang Yuoshan asked in unison.

"The lives of Mr. Earth Dragon and Mr. Zhang Yusheng," Cang Xing said with a smile. "If Mr. Earth Dragon dies first, the ten crossbow teeth will die immediately; if Mr. Zhang Yusheng dies first, the ten crossbow teeth will live."

"..."

One sentence made Roger and Zhang Yuoshan close their mouths.

But the hope in their eyes flickered even more strongly.

Roger certainly didn't want his most loyal subordinate, Earth Dragon, to die. He and Earth Dragon could even team up to kill Zhang Yuoshan. However, killing Zhang Yuoshan and completing the hidden mission, which would result in Zhang Yuoshan being eliminated by the system, were two different things! As long as the hidden mission was completed to 90%, not only would the vast majority of CTs in Guangdong and Hong Kong be eliminated, but most importantly, the entire Kowloon would be designated as the territory of the Ghost Team. At that time, whether it was subordinates or benefits, everything would be within reach for Roger, who would dominate Guangdong and Hong Kong!

Killing Earth Dragon, dominating Guangdong and Hong Kong; not killing Earth Dragon, the hidden mission would barely be completed, and not being eliminated would be a good thing, let alone expecting any territory?

For Zhang Yuoshan, the issue was even simpler.

Indeed, if Roger and Earth Dragon teamed up, he wouldn't stand a chance. But he still had a life-saving item that could help him escape from their combined attack. As long as he killed Zhang Yusheng, his chances of survival would increase! But if he didn't kill Zhang Yusheng, once Roger decided to kill Earth Dragon, he would have nowhere to run, and no matter how far he ran, he couldn't escape the system's elimination!

So, with just a moment's hesitation, Zhang Yuoshan took the initiative, and a modified Desert Eagle appeared in his hand, firing a bullet toward Zhang Yusheng!

But he forgot one person... Ye Yun!

Even though he and Zhang Yusheng weren't friends and were even enemies in the faction, they had shared life and death together before. Plus, he didn't dare to trust that Cang Xing had no more tricks up his sleeve. It was better to keep Zhang Yusheng alive as a precaution.

So, before Zhang Yuoshan fired, Ye Yun took two steps forward and blocked in front of Zhang Yusheng.

Standing defense!

Ding!

A clear sound, even though Zhang Yuoshan's bullet was clearly specially modified, it bounced off the oval-shaped energy shield in front of Ye Yun.

"Naive!"

Zhang Yuoshan sneered, firing the Desert Eagle repeatedly... but his shooting movements were very strange, not a straight line, but a large swing of his arm, with a bullet fired each time!

No matter how fast and sharp Ye Yun's speed and eyesight were, he couldn't see the bullets clearly, so he could only maintain his defensive stance.

Instead, behind him, Vanessa hastily shouted, "Be careful! Arc trajectory technique!"

"What..."

Before Ye Yun could finish his sentence, he heard the sound of bullets hitting steel and exploding behind him. He instinctively turned around and saw Vanessa holding two police defensive shields on either side of Zhang Yusheng.

On the two black shields, the smoke from the special bullets had not yet dissipated.

Ye Yun was shocked, "What's going on? He was clearly shooting at me! How did it get behind me?"

"Arc trajectory technique, of course, can make bullets turn!" Vanessa's right arm was already severely injured, and after blocking several special bullets, she could only use her right shoulder to hold the defensive shield, but her face showed a look of pain: "Zhang Yuosheng's bullets and gun are enhanced, passive defense will eventually be broken through!"

"What should we do?" Ye Yun asked anxiously.

"Like this!" Roger suddenly roared.

Puh!

Blood, along with a white throat and yellowish sticky liquid, appeared in his clenched hand, followed by the heavy and muscular body of Earth Dragon falling to the ground with an incredulous look.

Cruel! Vicious!

At this moment, the face of Roger, who had always used the identity of a church priest, no longer had any benevolent appearance. Even when he tore his trusted subordinate's throat, he didn't show a hint of sadness!

His eyes were filled with merciless malice and the calmness of a sure victory.

He threw the clump of flesh and throat on the ground, stepped forward to stomp Earth Dragon's head to pieces, and turned to say calmly, "Cang Xing, I did it first!"

"Clap, clap, clap!"

Cang Xing clapped his hands with a smile, "This is the ugliness of human nature I was expecting! Isn't that right, Mr. Zhang?"

Zhang Yuoshan's face changed several times, then he suddenly shouted at Vanessa, "If you don't want to die, come with me! Kill Cang Xing, and we will have a chance to live!"

As he madly rushed toward the stage, he continued to shout, "And those crossbow teeth, you are all going to be sold by that guy, so why are you still hesitating? Come with me and kill him!"

Bang, bang, bang!

A series of explosions sounded on Zhang Yuoshan's body as he ran. Several spewed fangs drew straight lines in the air, hitting him accurately. The powerful force easily blew this already battered old man to pieces, leaving only his spine connected to his lower body. His intact legs fell to the ground after a few more steps.

"..." Everyone present drew a sharp breath.

Vanessa and Ye Yun were certainly shocked by Zhang Yuoshan's death, but Roger laughed, "Well done! Cang Xing, but you should fulfill your promise now, right?"

"I refuse." Cang Xing smiled.

"You... what?" Roger was stunned.

"Just as it sounds."

Roger was stunned for a few seconds, his originally cheerful smile gradually disappearing, his face turning red like blood, and the veins on his face and neck bulging as if they would burst: "You! Dare! To! Deceive! Me!?"

"Oh oh~~!" Seeing that he was about to charge, Cang Xing wagged his finger with a smile, "Be careful, you don't seem to be a match for so many crossbow teeth~!"

Roger stood still, his teeth almost grinding to pieces, "You actually tricked me into killing my most trusted subordinate!!!"

"How can you say 'deceive'? I really don't like that word," Cang Xing laughed. "You should say 'play'."

"What?" Roger didn't understand.

Cang Xing smiled, "I played you, not deceived you. Deception is 'deceive', usually involving interests. But regarding interests or anything else, I wouldn't easily lie! So, what happened between us just now is best described as 'play'."

Seeing Roger almost faint from anger, Cang Xing laughed, "Actually, there's no need to be so angry, it was just a prank. Usually, a man who has been in a high position and controls the lives of others, shouldn't you be a bit bigger?"

"Bigger..." Roger clenched his fists, standing in place, trembling uncontrollably.

Cang Xing shook his head with a smile, no longer paying attention to him, but instead looking at Ye Yun, "Lieutenant Ye Yun, although we are not good friends, I haven't done anything to harm you so far, right?"
