Chapter 545 - 545 Killing Intent Revealed
Thank you readers!
Lu Benwei did not panic at all. His eyes were calm like an ancient well.
However, he had some doubts in his heart. He had been hiding it well and did not reveal his aura. How could others easily see through his level?
Could it be Yilong? No, that was not right!
From the moment Lu Benwei stepped into the office downstairs, he had noticed Yilong’s existence. After knowing that he was Gao Shengqiang’s number one subordinate, he had been observing him silently.
!!
Lu Benwei could guarantee that it was not Yilong that could see his aura.
Could it be Gao Shengqiang? Thinking of this, Lu Benwei’s gaze shifted to Gao Shengqiang.
At this moment, Lu Benwei realized that Gao Shengqiang’s eyes were flashing with a strange green light. He had a fake smile on his face and was also staring at him.
“Little brother, it’s best if you keep your claws and teeth away from me.”
Gao Shengqiang licked his teeth, the green light in his eyes flashing.
Lu Benwei instantly understood. Gao Shengqiang’s brother, Gao Shengtang, was the pillar of the Dragon Kingdom. How could Gao Shengqiang be an ordinary person?
Lu Benwei’s attention was on Yilong just now, so he relaxed his vigilance toward Gao Shengqiang. Hence, Gao Shengqiang was able to see Lu Benwei’s level.
“Alright, alright.” Gao Shengqiang waved his hand. “Let’s exchange quickly. I still have to find the two people who kidnapped my daughter.”
Hearing this, Liu Yao’s heart dropped.
“I was at the trading center yesterday,” he asked tentatively, “I wonder who kidnapped Yiyu?”
Gao Shengqiang heard this and immediately spat, “Damn it, I get angry at the mention of this!”
“Uncle Gao, what happened?” Liu Yao asked.
“The people below are too incompetent!” Gao Shengqiang gritted his teeth in anger. “It’s been two days. We can’t even find the identities and whereabouts of those two kidnappers!”
“Uncle Gao, why didn’t you contact your friends at the police station?” Liu Yao asked deliberately.
“Fan Lei, that b*stard! He said I have no right to ask!” Gao Shengqiang spat again, “Damn it, I gave him a lot of good wine every year, but all of them were eaten by dogs.”
“Don’t be angry, Uncle Gao,” Liu Yao said with a smile, “Give me all the information you know so far. I’ll ask my family to help you find it.”
Of course, this was Liu Yao’s excuse. He was the one who informed Bureau Chief Fan Lei not to leak any information about the incident.
As this was part of the rules of the police investigation, Fan Lei, the director of the Patrol Bureau, agreed.
While he was talking to Gao Shengqiang, the transaction between the Blood God Lotus and the Nascent Soul Fruit was completed.
“Sigh, if only there was a second Nascent Soul Fruit.”
Liu Yao sighed and looked at Si He meaningfully.
Si He looked at the Nascent Soul Fruit in Lu Benwei’s hand and swallowed his saliva.
All these years, he had suffered a lot because his soul origin was damaged. A life-saving medicine was right in front of him. No one could resist such temptation.
“Little friend Lu Benwei, can I ask you for a favor?”
Si He lowered his voice, his turbid eyes pleading.
“It’s not convenient to talk about it here.”
Lu Benwei knew what Si He meant, but Yilong and Gao Shengqiang were both top-notch experts, so it was not convenient for them to discuss such confidential matters.
However, Si He knew that once he stepped out of this door, he would have no chance.
Liu Yao had been paying attention to this place. He sneered in his heart.
“Uncle Si, what should be yours will always be yours. What’s the hurry?!”
When Si He heard this, a wave of anger surged into his heart.
“What’s the hurry?!”
…
These three words were like a curse chanted by Tang Sanzang, exploding in Si He’s ears. Si He was furious and then broke down.
The source of the soul was the spirit, and the spirit was the emotion. With his soul source damaged, Si He’s control of his emotions was also affected.
At this moment, Si He seemed to have gone crazy as he snatched the Nascent Soul Fruit from Lu Benwei’s hand.
“Brother Lu Benwei, quickly give me the Nascent Soul Fruit!”
Si He’s hysterical roar shocked everyone!
Gao Shenqiang smacked his lips and frowned. “Lu Benwei, why does this name sound so familiar? Someone mentioned it to me yesterday!”
Yilong frowned as well, feeling that something was amiss.
“Master Gao, this is all just a cover!” Si He shouted, “He’s the one who kidnapped your daughter! Exchanging for Nascent Soul Fruits is just a pretense!”
“What?”
Hearing this, Gao Shengqiang flew into a rage!
“Boom!”
With a loud bang, Yilong had already attacked.
Lu Benwei sneered. He finally understood Liu Yao’s plan! Liu Yao wanted to use Si He’s breakdown to cause a dispute between him and Gao Shengqiang!
From the beginning of the day, Liu Yao had been provoking Si He. All for the sake of him collapsing and he could sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight! No matter which side won, they could push the responsibility to Si He!
Of course, the best scenario would be Lu Benwei defeating Gao Shengqiang. Then, Liu Yao could become the king of Ha City openly.
If Gao Shengqiang won, the Gao family was also at the end of their rope. They could not accuse Liu Yao of colluding with him and plotting against each other!
On the contrary, they could turn the tables and reveal Lu Benwei’s whereabouts to the great eight families to threaten him!
This move was dangerous and ruthless enough!
At this moment, Yilong had already attacked. His speed was so fast that it was almost impossible to see with the naked eye!
“Whoosh!”
A cold light flashed in Lu Benwei’s eyes. Yilong’s huge body was already close. It was hard to imagine that Yilong with such a huge body could have such terrifying speed. Moreover, his attack speed was very fast!
The pair of scimitars in his hands stabbed forward and launched an extreme attack!
“Clang! Clang! Clang!”
Lu Benwei raised his sword to block, and the close combat interweaved into a grand metal concert.
The two of them began to compete with their ultimate swordsmanship and domineering sword techniques!
Lu Benwei flicked his wrist and raised his head to aim at Yilong’s middle lane. The sword light pierced straight at his chest.
When Yilong saw this, his expression turned cold. His two blades collided and clamped Lu Benwei’s Ancient Sword of Clarity!
Then, he used the advantage behind him to press down with his mountain-like body.
In this position, Yilong could release a very small amount of energy, but it could explode with powerful pressure.
Lu Benwei only felt that the sword light was pressing against a growing mountain, and it was becoming more and more difficult.
“Buzz!”
The force of a thousand tons gathered into one and pressed down on him.
Lu Benwei’s entire body was trembling, and the humming sound of the sword echoed throughout the room!
