Chapter 55: Chapter 55: Only One of You Can Live

After the meeting ended.

Shan Jinyong returned to his office, sat down with a sullen expression.

Remembering the process of the meeting, he angrily punched the desk in front of him with a muffled bang, skin scraping off his knuckles.

But it was as if he hadn’t noticed, seething, he cursed under his breath:

"Damn it! Xu Li, just being selected as the temporary president, dares to act all high and mighty in front of me, really thinks he’s much better than me? If he pushes me too far, I’ll fight him directly!"

"Damn! Damn!"

Shan Jinyong was breathing heavily, like a beast ready to pounce on its prey.

At this moment.

He suddenly felt the touch of a cold, hard object against the back of his head.

With years of experience, Shan Jinyong instantly guessed this was... a gun.

He immediately froze all over.

His angry expression solidified on his face, making him look as if he was in a state of suspended time, unable to move.

"I have some questions for you, can you cooperate?"

Shan Jinyong seemed to recover from the time stop, quickly replied, "Yes, yes! Sir, please ask, I will tell everything I know, but... could you move the gun away to avoid an accident?"

To his surprise, the mysterious person behind him truly retreated the gun without hesitation.

"What’s your name?"

"Shan Jinyong."

"How old are you?"

"Uh..." Shan Jinyong hesitated for a moment, surprised by why the other party asked such questions, but still obediently answered, "46 years old."

"Where do you live?"

"Golden Phoenix Garden."

"How many children do you have?"

"...Two."

Su Xin hit the back of his head with the gun butt again and asked, "How many?"

"Two!" 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

Su Xin hit again with the butt, still coldly asking, "How many?"

Shan Jinyong sucked in a cold breath from the pain, clutching the bleeding wound on his head, gritting his teeth, he said, "Four, plus two illegitimate ones, not sure why sir is asking these..."

Su Xin hit again with the butt, "I ask, you answer, understand?"

In the situation of being completely at mercy, Shan Jinyong was very obedient, "Understood."

"Are you a member of the Nirvana Association?"

"..."

Shan Jinyong hesitated for a moment, then said:

"No"

"Heard of the Nirvana Association?"

"Heard of them."

"Tell me what you know about the Nirvana Association."

Shan Jinyong paused, seeming to organize his thoughts, then began to speak, "The Nirvana Association seems to be a cross-border crime organization, with significant influence in many parts of the world, though not well-known, they have actually committed many worldwide shocking cases, there’s even rumors that they can sway some countries’ regimes."

"There’s also rumors of their fearsome economic power, saying they caused the global economic crisis five years ago."

"However, due to the joint ban by countries, the Nirvana Association is not well-known on the internet and major media platforms, so regular people don’t know them at all, I only learned through a friend’s connections."

"Sir, if you’re looking for me because of the Nirvana Association, there must be a misunderstanding, I have no connection with them at all, all I’ve said is hearsay, with no basis whatsoever."

As he spoke, Shan Jinyong raised his hands, indicating no threat, and tried to turn around slowly.

Su Xin did not stop him.

He just looked at him indifferently.

Until Shan Jinyong was fully turned around, he finally saw the figure behind him—

Su Xin was draped in a black robe, masked, only the bright eyes under the hood revealed an indifferent look.

To Shan Jinyong’s behavior, Su Xin had no reaction, just looked at him calmly:

"You’re not a member of the Nirvana Association, but Fang Keyi was, so I killed him. Now, I want you to do something, thoroughly investigate all information related to Fang Keyi, as detailed as possible, especially those related to the Nirvana Association."

"If you don’t, I’ll kill you too. If you do, perhaps I’ll help you eliminate all your competitors and make you president."

Shan Jinyong secretly assessed Su Xin.

Seeing Su Xin didn’t stop his actions, his courage grew, deciding to test Su Xin’s limits gradually, so his gaze began to show a scrutinizing look, his posture became somewhat casual, as he countered:

"How do I know if what you say is true? Whether you can really help me get rid of competitors?"

As soon as he spoke, he witnessed a terrifying scene—

The black-robed figure in front of him abruptly disappeared like an illusion, almost simultaneously, a cold voice came from behind:

"You don’t believe?"

Years of fighting, coupled with his demeanor developed in recent years, allowed Shan Jinyong to barely maintain his composure, but in the face of such a bizarre event, his breath paused, limbs stiff, cold sweat broke out all over.

The ability of Instant Teleportation, may not sound like much, doesn’t seem exaggerated in movies, mostly just seems magical, but truly witnessing a person vanish into thin air before him, reappearing behind him, was almost like seeing a ghost in broad daylight.

At least as Shan Jinyong saw it, the black-robed figure, with this power, plus the gun, could easily take his life.

Under such a threat, he was really scared.

After a while, Shan Jinyong managed to say with difficulty:

"I believe."

"Good, by this time tomorrow, I will come to you, hopefully, you’ll have what I want prepared."

Shan Jinyong turned back, urgently said, "Wait... Sir, to investigate Fang Keyi’s information, I need to access his computer, which might have many clues, but now, another person is selected as president, they’ll likely move to Fang Keyi’s office soon, it will be troublesome if the data gets processed."

Su Xin looked at him calmly:

"The other person you’re talking about is Xu Li, right? I’ll also ask him the same request, tomorrow, whoever provides the more useful information, I’ll spare and help eliminate their competitors."

"Otherwise, the consequence is the death of the entire family."

"Only one of you can survive."

Su Xin spoke plainly, but the menace in his words, plus the demonstration of Instant Teleportation ability, sent a shiver from deep within Shan Jinyong.

Before he could respond, after finishing his sentence, Su Xin vanished again.

Shan Jinyong anxiously looked around, but never saw Su Xin reappear.

For a long time, he sat down disheartened.

Facing a mysterious person with such unpredictable capability, all his past experience seemed useless, clearly, his subordinates’ power wasn’t reassuring enough.

The sense of powerlessness and desperation, he couldn’t remember how long it had been since he last felt like this.
