In the car.
"Have you investigated clearly?" When it came to this matter, Huo Yuchen's tone turned much colder. He wanted to know who was so bold as to try to assassinate him in his own territory.
Nanbei said, "Mr. Huo guessed right. It was indeed someone from the Meng Sha organization. The assassin has been caught, but his mouth is shut tight. We haven't been able to get anything out of him yet."
Meng Sha was the top assassin organization in Country A. It seemed that some people had gotten too comfortable and didn't know their own limits, to actually hire someone to assassinate him.
Emitting a murderous aura, Huo Yuchen said coldly, "Bring him to Tiger Park, and notify Jin Gang that I'm inviting him for tea."
Nanbei said, "Yes."
An hour later, at Tiger Park.
Huo Yuchen sat in the boss chair, a cigarette between his fingers. His aura was icy cold as he looked at the man groveling on the floor. His eyes were like a merciless black hole, ready to swallow the man up.
The man on the ground was beaten black and blue. Huo Yuchen said lightly, "His bones are quite hard."
The man let out a cold snort and fearlessly said, "The so-called King of Beijing is nothing more than this. At the critical moment he still needs a woman to protect him."
If it wasn't for that meddlesome woman suddenly showing up, he probably would have already killed Huo Yuchen. Everyone feared him and called him the living King of Hell, but he didn't buy it.
When someone approached him and offered to pay him to kill this man he had long envied, he accepted without hesitation, without telling the organization.
He wanted to prove to everyone that this man they praised to the high heavens was nothing special. Moreover, if he killed him, he might have a chance to become the number one assassin. That had always been his goal.
A bodyguard next to him saw the man's disrespectful words. He walked over and slapped the man twice across the face. "Watch your mouth if you don't want to die."
The bodyguard didn't hold back. The man spat out a mouthful of blood.
Huo Yuchen ordered the bodyguard, "Step back."
Tapping his fingers on the armrest of the chair, he had a leisurely, relaxed demeanor, seemingly not bothered at all by what the man said. "I don't have much patience. This is your last chance to tell me who hired you to kill me?"
The man stubbornly said, "You can forget about it! I won't say anything. My bad luck to fall into your hands. Kill me, butcher me, do as you wish."
Firstly, this was their code of conduct. He wouldn't reveal any information about his client even if he died. Secondly, he didn't want to satisfy Huo Yuchen.
He looked at Huo Yuchen, his eyes full of immense dissatisfaction. He was just unlucky. If he had another chance, he would definitely succeed in killing Huo Yuchen. He would definitely become the number one assassin in Country A.
Huo Yuchen just laughed coldly. "If you want to die, it won't be that easy."
He flicked away his cigarette and said to Bai Chi next to him, "Bring Jue Ying over."
"Yes, Mr. Huo."
Soon Bai Chi brought over a few people pushing a tiger cage. The tiger inside seemed extremely hungry and kept roaring.
When the man on the ground saw the tiger, his face changed color, but he was still trying to stay calm. He didn't say a word begging for mercy.
Next, Huo Yuchen's ruthless voice sounded. "Throw him in."
The men below decisively grabbed the man and threw him into the tiger cage without hesitation.
The blood-curdling screams and the tiger's roars made people shudder.
The bodyguards around Huo Yuchen watched this scene calmly. Having been by Huo Yuchen's side for so long, they had seen much more gory scenes. This was nothing to them.
Soon, someone came to report, "Mr. Huo, Jin Gang is here."
Huo Yuchen said, "Let him in."
A bald man in his forties or fifties soon walked in. The scene in the cage quickly caught his attention. Having spent his life wading through piles of corpses, he looked at the bloody scene without any reaction. He just felt that Huo Yuchen was even more twisted than him, drinking tea in a place like this. The tea would lose its flavor.
"Mr. Huo, you invited me for tea but also to watch a show of man versus beast?"
Huo Yuchen pointed to the seat across from him. "Sit."
Then he signaled Bai Chi with his eyes.
"Shoo!" Bai Chi gave a whistle towards the tiger cage upon receiving the signal.
The tiger stopped attacking and obediently lay down.
When the man was dragged out, he was barely clinging to life. His face was covered in blood and unrecognizable. The tiger was professionally trained and hadn't bitten any fatal areas. Although his body was a horrific, mangled mess, the man's life wasn't in danger.
Unable to die but forced to endure immense mental torment and physical torture - this was true living hell.
Huo Yuchen's reputation as the living King of Hell was well deserved.
The man squinted and saw Jin Gang not far away. It seemed like a ray of hope to survive. He wanted to call out to him for help but couldn't make a sound.
Huo Yuchen asked, "I wonder if Mr. Jin recognizes this man?"
Jin Gang suddenly had a bad feeling. He stood up and walked over to the man lying on the ground, squatting down. Before he could get a good look, he heard the man's weak voice. "Fa...ther...save...me..."
Jin Gang was startled. Unsure, he asked, "You're Xiaoqiang?"
The man, whose name was Jin Xiaoqiang, was an orphan taken in and raised by Jin Gang as a son.
The man said, "Yes...it's me."
Jin Gang's body shook upon hearing this. Seemingly unable to believe his ears, he looked at the bloodied Jin Xiaoqiang. "Is what he said all true?"
Jin Xiaoqiang's eyes shifted around as he stammered, "I...I..." But he couldn't get a word out.
Jin Gang was so angry he almost exploded. He kicked him, and the man who was barely alive immediately passed out from this kick.
He actually dared make a move against Huo Yuchen. He was simply courting death. Who was Huo Yuchen? The King of Beijing, someone he would step aside for.
Jin Gang glanced at his foolish son. If he wasn't unconscious, he really wanted to kick him a few more times.
Now his attitude towards Huo Yuchen did a complete 180. Extremely apologetic, he lowered his stance. "Mr. Huo, I'm very sorry. This kid didn't know any better and caused you trouble. Please forgive him just this once for the sake of our many years of friendship. I will definitely discipline him when I get back."
When Huo Yuchen took out a cigarette, the bodyguard immediately stepped forward to light it. Jin Gang rushed forward, fawning, "Let me, let me."
The bodyguard glanced at Huo Yuchen. Seeing that he didn't react, he understood Huo Yuchen had acquiesced and stepped back.
After lighting the cigarette, Huo Yuchen took a puff, his eyes like a hawk staring at Jin Gang. He casually said, "So you mean I should just eat this loss?"
Jin Gang quickly said, "No, no, my man was in the wrong this time. As long as you're willing to spare him this once, I'll hand over the Heart Bay land with both hands."
He knew Huo Yuchen would never eat a loss. He also knew he had coveted that land for a long time. Jin Xiaoqiang's matter had given him a reason. Otherwise he wouldn't have gone through so much trouble to get him here to watch this show.
Hearing this, Huo Yuchen finally said reluctantly, "Since Mr. Jin has made this request, I will reluctantly accept it."
Jin Gang...
Felt like he had forcibly shoved it to Huo Yuchen. This was really...
