Chapter 579: Chapter 579: Parting Ways Unhappily
Soon, Shu Qiya answered the phone.
"What the hell did you do? Did you know numerous shareholders were murdered? What kind of monster did you provoke? We’ve all been dragged into this mess because of you. How are you going to fix it?" As soon as the call connected, one of them cursed.
"Shut up! I’m barely able to protect myself; why should I care about you?" Shu Qiya’s angry shout came through immediately: "Besides, didn’t you all agree when I proposed it? And now you blame me? What a joke."
"You... we never told you to use the Celestial Net to assassinate him. Now he’s retaliating, what do you suggest we do?"
"Exactly... if you don’t resolve this, prepare to face our wrath. We’re going to kick you out of the Little Black Bottle."
"Fix this immediately, or you’re finished."
Hearing these words, the shareholders loudly threatened, and in their fear, their will to survive was strong.
Boom!
Boom boom!
Just then, explosions echoed through the phone, and hearing these sounds, the shareholders looked at each other, not knowing what had happened.
Meanwhile, on the other side, at Shu Qiya’s residence.
Having lost all patience, the hitmen went all out, launching rocket launchers, intending to level Shu Qiya’s place.
With each explosion of the rocket launchers, the ground shook, and the seemingly indestructible building was instantly blown to pieces.
Witnessing this scene, other hitmen couldn’t sit still either, all taking action, with an even more ferocious attack quietly descending.
Ah!
Ah ah!
The bodyguards Shu Qiya had hired let out screams and fell into pools of blood under the rocket explosions.
They had risked their lives for money.
"Wha... what’s going on? Is someone bombing me? Do these people have to be so ruthless?" Inside, Shu Qiya was so frightened by the noise that he wet himself, bursting into tears.
On the other end of the phone, the shareholders fell silent upon hearing this, knowing Shu Qiya was done for.
Moreover, with the hitmen being so ruthless, could they escape unscathed? They had no confidence.
"Damn it! These bastards from the Celestial Net mean business, what are we to do?" The shareholders were in a panic.
"Negotiate, we must negotiate immediately, or we’re all finished." In the chaos, one suggested.
"Exactly, as long as we can negotiate and as long as they retract the bounty, we will be saved." Under his suggestion, the other shareholders perked up and started searching for Ye Feng’s contact details.
....
While they were busy, Shu Qiya was in a miserable situation.
Boom boom boom!
The sound of explosions caused his house to begin collapsing. He stood in the tottering structure, bewildered and full of regret.
If he had another chance to choose, he would never provoke Ye Feng, this Devil, but there were no remedies for regret in this world.
Unbeknownst to him, even more intense attacks were descending....
As Shu Qiya faced the bombardment, the remaining top ten hitmen gathered to discuss how to complete the five hundred million bounty.
"Everyone! Aren’t you tempted by the five hundred million Mg Blade bounty? Although the opponent has Divine Level warriors, with Long Ya leading us, we have a fighting chance." The Cosmic Emperor smiled, gesturing to those present.
"I don’t care about anything else. Just give me forty percent, and I’ll take action." Long Ya replied coldly.
"Forty percent? Isn’t that too much?"
"Exactly, if you take forty percent, what do we get? To work for free?"
Hearing Long Ya’s words, the others were displeased.
"Everyone, without Long Ya and me, could you complete the task? I’ve thought through the proportions: Long Ya gets forty percent, I’ll take thirty percent, and you’ll share the rest. That’s quite fair!" Seeing them unwilling, the Cosmic Emperor quickly persuaded.
"Ha!" At that moment, one hitman chuckled and said, "No need for that. You probably haven’t checked the Celestial Net lately, have you? Someone’s offering a billion Mg Blade bounty to assassinate Shu Qiya and the top brass of the Little Black Bottle."
"This five billion task was issued by the Little Black Bottle. If they die, do you think there will be anyone to pay us for completing the task?"
"What?" Hearing this, the others quickly took out their phones to log into Celestial Net.
"Damn it! This task is very tempting, and much of it has already been completed." Realizing the bounty was real, their faces darkened.
If they had known earlier about this bounty, would they have come here to discuss the five billion reward? They would have already turned around to assassinate Shu Qiya.
Unfortunately, they had missed the best opportunity, and now they deeply regretted it.
"Should we continue? If we do, we might not get the bounty," one of the hitmen hesitantly asked.
"Continue my ass!" Long Ya sneered and turned to leave.
"Look, the task has really been withdrawn. It shows the task issuer is dead," someone pointed out as Long Ya was about to leave.
"What? So fast?" Hearing this, they all checked.
Seeing the previous five billion bounty had indeed been withdrawn, they understood Ye Feng’s capability and knew he was someone not to be messed with.
"Luckily we didn’t show up. Being targeted by this guy is no joke."
"Too scary! Failing in assassination and getting assassinated in return, is this world too terrifying?"
With hearts still pounding, they patted their chests in relief.
Indeed, they were grateful they hadn’t impulsively said anything. Otherwise, if Ye Feng found out, a task issued by Ye Feng would leave them with no peace, living in constant fear.
They might even die at the hands of other hitmen due to a moment’s carelessness.
They were strong, but not infallible. A lapse in attention could mean falling prey to another hitman’s tactics, getting taken out by an unknown killer.
Moreover, such incidents had happened frequently before.
"Let’s go! Let’s pretend nothing happened." Even the Cosmic Emperor nodded in dread, advising.
At his advice, everyone hurried to leave.
Three hitmen even set their sights on the task Ye Feng issued, hoping to seize an opportunity.
So, the three hitmen rushed to the destination, afraid they’d miss out if they delayed.
....
Meanwhile, elsewhere, the situation was much livelier.
Indeed, at Shu Qiya’s residence, it was chaotic beyond words.
With all the hitmen taking action, the scene was indescribably shocking and crazed....
