Chapter 146 The Xiao Family Comes to Slaughter Them All
"Your Majesty, news has come from the black market that the Tan family has posted a recruitment bounty on the black market forum."
Inside the Xiao family garden, the underworld guards reported to Xiao Chen.
"The Tan family is recruiting top assassins, and the offer is quite high." The Netherworld Guard's voice was filled with murderous intent.
Xiao Chen frowned upon hearing this.
"Are you going to hire an assassin to deal with me?" He smiled, his expression laced with sarcasm.
He had no interest in getting involved in the Tan and Zheng family's affairs anymore.
Next, the Xiao family will take action to suppress and punish them in all aspects...
But to everyone's surprise, the Tan family was still persistent and went back to issue a recruitment bounty.
Many tasks on the black market forum are posted anonymously, and the black market keeps them confidential so that others cannot find them.
However, now that Xiao Chen has the Black Market Purple Gold Token, the Black Market has directly sold out the Tan family.
"The Tan family is truly courting death! Your Majesty, let me lead men to wipe them out!" the Underworld Guard said angrily.
"The Tan family is very interesting. I'll go meet them in person, as the King of the Underworld..." Xiao Chen revealed a playful smile.
……
Night fell, the sky was starless and moonless, and a slight breeze carried a sense of desolation.
The Tan family home was brightly lit.
The head of the Tan family was by his son's bedside.
Seeing his son half-dead, he felt a pang of heartache and clenched his fists tightly.
"Mr. Tan, Mr. Zheng has arrived," the butler announced softly as he entered.
"Let him in."
A few minutes later, the butler led the Zheng family patriarch into the room.
After glancing at the father and son, the head of the Zheng family looked gloomy and sighed.
"Brother Tan, why did you urgently call me here? Do you have some solutions?" he asked.
"Xiao Yuanshan isn't just talking for fun. The Xiao family has already taken action. My company's business has been greatly affected today. If this continues, we'll be ruined sooner or later!"
The head of the Tan family turned to look at him, his expression serious.
"Brother Zheng, are you willing to accept this?" he asked.
“Both of our families have only one son. Now that our son is a cripple, how can we continue the family line? Can you accept this? Can you swallow this insult?” He became more and more angry as he spoke.
"What can I do even if I'm unwilling?" the Zheng family head said through gritted teeth.
"But the Xiao family is not one we can shake. We can't even protect ourselves now, so how can we talk about revenge?"
The head of the Tan family stood up and said, "Come with me."
The head of the Zheng family followed him out of the room, puzzled, and walked into the courtyard.
In the courtyard, two rows of people dressed in special forces combat uniforms stood in neat rows.
Everyone was equipped with sophisticated and advanced weapons, including guns, grenades, and so on.
The head of the Zheng family widened his eyes.
"Brother Tan, what's wrong with you...?"
"A blood debt must be repaid in blood! I will never let Xiao Chen escape like this, I want him dead!" the Tan family head said viciously.
The head of the Zheng family looked frozen.
The Tan family is going to fight to the death...
“But the Xiao family is a martial arts family, and Xiao Yuanshan is even more powerful. Relying on these things might only have a limited effect…” he quickly advised.
"I'm not going to storm into the Xiao family," the Tan family head said coldly. "That kid can't stay in the Xiao family forever; he'll come out eventually."
"Besides, I've prepared more than just this."
After he finished speaking, he clapped his hands.
A dark figure appeared in the courtyard and slowly walked into the light.
The newcomer was wearing a black cloak and exuded an aura of death that made people very uncomfortable.
“Bee Sting, ranked eighteenth on the international assassin list, has even successfully assassinated the head of the Tan family…” the Tan family head said with a sneer.
"Tell me, no matter how capable Xiao Chen is, can he defend against an assassination attempt of this level?"
The head of the Zheng family was speechless.
They really went all out!
“Brother Tan, we have indeed avenged Xiao Chen by killing him, but what will happen to the Tan family if the Xiao family goes mad?” he sighed.
The head of the Zheng family simply smiled noncommittally.
“An organization sent someone to connect with me, telling us to go ahead and do it, and that they could handle any problems, including those involving the Xiao family…”
Upon hearing this, the Zheng family head was greatly shocked.
"The power of that organization is beyond imagination. My people can practically control everything in Jiang City, but they are just a part of it, not even considered high-ranking members..."
The head of the Zheng family was deeply moved upon hearing this.
"Is everything you're saying true?"
"I swear on my son's life!"
The head of the Zheng family made a decision, his eyes hardening.
"Fine, count this in for the Zheng family. I want to see Xiao Chen die with my own eyes!" His expression turned ferocious.
The two reached a consensus and began discussing it in the courtyard.
At one moment, the assassin in the black cloak suddenly changed his expression and assumed a defensive posture.
“There’s a murderous aura!” he said in a deep voice.
"What?" Patriarch Tan frowned.
They looked around, but could see nothing.
He waved his hand, and the mercenaries immediately went into battle alert, their infrared gun barrels aimed at every corner of the garden.
"Turn on all the surveillance cameras!" the Tan family head ordered his servants.
The voice just fell.
"Bang bang bang..."
A burst of gunfire suddenly rang out, and bullets with unpredictable trajectories came from who-knows-where.
In just a few moments, all the mercenaries surrounding the two family heads fell down.
After shooting the mercenaries, the gunfire stopped, and the two men were unharmed.
As a top-tier assassin, Bee Sting is exceptionally skilled; ordinary bullets cannot harm him.
The garden was quiet for a while.
The two heads of the household were on high alert.
"Who are you? What is your purpose?" The Tan family head realized that the other side did not seem to intend to kill them, so he shouted boldly.
"You've got guts."
A sound came from inside, ethereal and clear.
"Whoosh whoosh..."
More than a dozen dark figures leaped into the garden, each dressed in black and masked, their faces concealed.
"Who exactly are you people?" the Tan family head asked coldly.
"Can't you guess who we are? Did the Tan and Zheng families offend someone else?" the leader said sarcastically.
The two men's expressions froze, and they suddenly realized what was going on.
"You are... from the Xiao family!"
The man in black laughed loudly, arrogant and smug.
The two men looked extremely grim.
Was their plot to assassinate Xiao Chen exposed before it even began?
"Speak, what do you want?" the Tan family head asked firmly.
With that powerful backing him, he felt very confident.
"You think you can get away with offending the Xiao family?" the man in black sneered, his murderous aura palpable.
"We must wipe out the Tan family and the Zheng family!"
The two family heads were greatly shocked.
"Of course, you two won't die. You'll have to watch all your loved ones die, and then suffer unbearable pain all by yourself!"
"This... is the consequence of provoking my Xiao family!"
The two heads of the family were filled with grief and indignation.
"The Xiao family appears benevolent and righteous on the surface, but behind the scenes they are so despicable! They are unworthy of being a prominent family!" they angrily denounced.
"Say whatever you want, the Tan and Zheng families are destined for destruction!"
Clearly, the man in black didn't care and raised his hand to order the killing to begin.
"Bee Sting, aren't you going to make a move?" the Tan family head roared.
