In the violent jostling and intense oppression, Mr. Scar felt himself being transported to a certain place.
After what felt like an eternity, with a "bang", he was thrown onto the cold cement ground, his bones nearly shattering.
Then, someone came up and yanked the sack off Mr. Scar's head. He shook his head fiercely, only to find himself at a demolition site. There was no light, just the moonlight filtering from the sky, allowing him to see the faces of two people in front of him.
Jiang Feng, Zhu Ge Yuheng!
Upon seeing these two, Mr. Scar felt his soul leave his body, and the last bit of hope in his heart extinguished. He never expected to fall into their hands in the end!
"What do you want?" Mr. Scar asked sternly with false bravado, but his heart was more tense than ever. The winner is king, the loser an outlaw; he already sensed his impending fate.
"Mr. Scar, didn't expect you'd have this day, did you? We woke you just to let you die knowing why," Zhu Ge Yuheng coldly gestured, and immediately, two Chu Family elites stepped forward, lifting Mr. Scar off the ground and throwing him into a ready-dug pit.
The pit was artistically dug, 1.8 meters long, 80 centimeters wide, shallow, just enough to fit a person—it was practically a custom-made grave.
Mr. Scar struggled incessantly, but it was to no avail. He tried to shout, but his voice was drowned out by the rumbling machines. Staring in shock ahead, he saw Gu Hong driving a massive concrete mixer truck in reverse, parking at the edge of the grave.
"No, please, no..." Mr. Scar was utterly desperate now; the demeanor of yore was nowhere to be found. Nose running and tears flowing, he pleaded bitterly: "Zhu Ge Yuheng, Jiang Feng, spare me, give me a way out, I'll give you whatever you want…"
"You're now a stray dog running for your life, what right do you have to say such things?" Zhu Ge Yuheng ordered the adjustment of the mixer's funnel direction, aiming directly at Mr. Scar's feet. With a switch pull, a rumbling sound ensued, and cement slurry gushed out, quickly engulfing Mr. Scar's shins.
"No!!!" Mr. Scar howled in anguish: "Jiang Feng, spare my life! I accept that Mu Jinbiao fell by your hand, but don't kill me, not if I serve you like a dog or a horse..."
He observed Jiang Feng, who had remained silent throughout, realizing the ultimate decision lay with him, hoping desperately for Jiang Feng to speak.
Sadly, Jiang Feng's expression was even colder.
Ever since Mr. Scar first sent the twenty men led by Tiger to invade South City and target Jiang Feng, the outcome had been sealed. Later on, allying with the Han Family and Chu Yan to set up an ambush for Jiang Feng only sped up his downfall.
"Jiang Feng, this isn't over between us!" Seeing Jiang Feng remain silent, Mr. Scar's face turned ashen, cursing in a frenzy: "If you kill me today, it won't be long before you come to join me, I will haunt you from the grave!!!"
Gu Hong in the driver's cab sneered coldly. This guy dared to lay curses on Mr. Jiang when facing death? He forcefully pulled the lever, the giant concrete drum spun, raining stones and cement down like a deluge, swiftly submerging Mr. Scar's body.
Mr. Scar, eyes wide, continued to scream futilely as the cement engulfed his chest, neck, face, and finally poured into his open mouth, covering his head. Not even a single air bubble escaped, and he finally ceased all movement.
Half a minute later, all was silent. Two Chu Family elites pulled a tarp over the grave. Zhu Ge Yuheng said indifferently, "Once it solidifies, take it to Binjiang and sink it."
"Yes, Second Young Master!"
"From now on, there will be no such figure as Mr. Scar in Binhai. Mr. Jiang, shall we head back?" Zhu Ge Yuheng asked Jiang Feng.
Jiang Feng nodded, turned, and walked away.
...
At seven that evening, after her colleagues had left, Mu Yanluo remained alone in her office, staring tensely at her computer, her fingers anxiously manipulating the mouse as she scrutinized every word on the screen.
Through some complex channels, she acquired the passenger list of the train departing Binhai to the Northeast that evening and was now searching for the name linked to Mr. Scar's fake ID.
Unfortunately, after meticulously searching three times, she found nothing. Taking a significant risk, she contacted the train conductor of that voyage and confirmed that Mr. Scar hadn't boarded. Her spirit crumbled.
Recalling Mr. Scar's last instructions, tears stained her face while hatred filled her exquisite features: "Jiang Feng, Zhu Ge Yuheng, I won't let you off! I will avenge my brother's blood!!"
...
At the abandoned construction site, leaving Gu Hong and others to deal with Mr. Scar's aftermath, Zhu Ge Yuheng departed with Jiang Feng.
Zhu Ge Yuheng personally drove his Bentley Mulsanne, taking Jiang Feng to North City as requested.
As it approached ten in the evening, Zhu Ge Yuheng grew uneasy, but seeing Jiang Feng seated in the passenger seat, eyes closed, serene, he dared not question further.
Suddenly, with a "whoosh", a silvery, comet-like object ghostly pierced through the Bentley's bulletproof glass, piercing Zhu Ge Yuheng in the neck like a flash of lightning.
Caught off guard, Zhu Ge Yuheng felt a sharp pain in his neck; before he could utter a sound, foggy unconsciousness swept over his mind.
With his last ounce of will, Zhu Ge Yuheng struggled to control the steering wheel, narrowly stopping the car at the roadside. Yet, he could hold on no longer and collapsed onto the steering wheel.
Simultaneously, Jiang Feng naturally sensed Zhu Ge Yuheng being attacked. The opponent's method was astounding, piercing silver needles through bulletproof glass. After striking Zhu Ge Yuheng, another ten pierced the passenger side glass, striking at him!
Jiang Feng, quick enough to catch bullets, casually caught all the silver needles in his palm. He discovered they too were poisoned. The green poison spread on contact, swiftly seeping into his skin!
However, this could do no harm to Jiang Feng. The Devouring Sky Demon Qi within him swallowed everything, rapidly consuming all the toxins, rendering him invulnerable.
Despite this, Jiang Feng feigned a dizzy state, mimicking Zhu Ge Yuheng, slumping onto the seat.
He planned to exploit this feigned opportunity to see who was behind the surprise ambush!
