Seeing the helicopter slowly descend, Ling Chen immediately raised the assault rifle in his hands, found a Land Rover as cover, and prepared to fight at any moment. As the helicopter landed, a Caucasian man stepped out of the cabin.

Seland? Seeing the newcomer, Ling Chen couldn’t help but be taken aback. This guy sure was bold, coming here alone without mercenary protection. Wasn’t he courting death?

While thinking, two more people jumped out from the helicopter. Ling Chen’s pupils slightly contracted, a hint of gravity in his expression.

Zhu Hong! Chen Quan! It was actually these two guys.

It seemed like Seland was being held hostage by them. Indeed, as expected, Zhu Hong and Chen Quan weren’t so easy to kill. However, although Zhu Hong and Chen Quan managed to escape, they had obviously gone through a bloody battle. Even someone as monstrously strong as Chen Quan was covered in scars, as if his body had been bathed in blood, looking exceptionally grim and terrifying. In comparison, Zhu Hong’s condition was slightly better.

At this moment, the three stood by the helicopter, looking at the surrounding corpses. Then, Zhu Hong’s gaze turned to the Land Rover where Ling Chen was hiding, and he shouted loudly, "Ling Chen, I know you’re there, come out."

Hearing Zhu Hong’s voice, Ling Chen didn’t respond but opened the large bag he carried and checked his weapons. The grenade launcher’s ammunition was completely used up, the grenades, smoke bombs, and explosives all exhausted. The only usable weapon he had was an assault rifle, and it wasn’t even a full magazine, just ten bullets.

The situation was very unfavorable!

Ling Chen frowned slightly, thinking to himself.

"Ling Chen, are you too scared to even meet me?" Zhu Hong taunted from not far away, "This doesn’t seem like the Ling Chen I know."

"Zhu Hong, have you ever seen me afraid of you?" Ling Chen stepped out from behind the Land Rover, directly facing Zhu Hong and the others.

Zhu Hong’s lips curled into a slight smile. He glanced around and asked, "Why are you alone? Where are your companions? Could it be they abandoned you and ran for their lives?"

"You don’t need to say pointless things."

"Why not say them?" Zhu Hong laughed, "After today, we won’t have the chance to chat again, so you should enjoy this moment. Say whatever you have to say, or if there’s anything you wish to convey, I can pass it along for you."

Ling Chen opened his mouth, about to retort, when the ringtone of his phone in his pocket rang out. Taking out the phone and glancing at the caller ID, a flash of hesitation crossed Ling Chen’s eyes. He thought it would be a call from Zhu Qing and them, but didn’t expect it would be her... After a moment’s hesitation, Ling Chen pressed the answer button and said hello.

"Where are you? Haven’t seen you recently." Nanrong Wanqing’s voice came from the other end of the line.

Ling Chen smiled slightly, "I’m abroad handling something. It’ll take a few days before I can return. Why, is there something you need?"

"Can’t I call you for no reason?" Nanrong Wanqing’s tone carried a trace of displeasure.

"Of course not. I wish you would call me every day. But, I have something important to deal with now. Can I get back to you later?"

"Alright then, just make sure you stay safe out there and don’t make me worry."

"I know." Hanging up the phone, Ling Chen looked up at Zhu Hong not far away, only to see the other squinting his eyes, looking at him with a face full of resentment.

"Was it Wanqing who called?"

Ling Chen nodded.

"Hmph! She really cares about you. If it weren’t for you butting in, the person she should care about would be me." Zhu Hong said coldly.

"Don’t be naive. Even if I hadn’t appeared, Wanqing wouldn’t have fancied someone like you. Cold-hearted and indifferent, ignoring even family, who would want to spend a lifetime with you?"

"Isn’t it all because of you?" Zhu Hong roared, "Without you, my future would be bright. It’s because of you that you know how much suffering I’ve endured? I can survive until now because of one belief supporting me, revenge! I have nothing left now, only hatred in my heart. I will kill you and everyone who opposes me."

"In that case, we have nothing more to say." Ling Chen released the safety on his assault rifle, the muzzle slightly raised. As soon as they attacked, he would pull the trigger.

"Master, kill him for me!"

Following Zhu Hong’s words, Chen Quan immediately stepped forward, heading towards Ling Chen. Seeing the opponent approaching, Ling Chen didn’t hesitate, raised his gun, and shot, the bullet aiming straight for Chen Quan’s eyes. However, just as Ling Chen fired, Chen Quan suddenly reached out, pulling Seland over to shield himself.

Since Seland was slightly shorter than Chen Quan, the bullet went straight through his brow.

With a shot to the head, Seland’s head jerked back abruptly, and blood gushed out of the bullet hole. The dignified president of the Yingtai Group, a giant of the world military industry, died just like that, without leaving a final word.

With Seland’s body shielding him, Ling Chen’s bullets were useless and couldn’t pose a threat to Chen Quan at all.

Watching the opponent approach step by step, Ling Chen had to retreat, trying to conserve the bullets in his magazine, as they were his only lifeline.

The best plan is to make a tactical retreat!

Clenching his teeth, Ling Chen decided not to drag it out any longer and started running down the road. Seeing Ling Chen trying to escape, Chen Quan immediately quickened his pace. However, whenever Chen Quan attempted to discard Seland’s body to pursue full-speed, Ling Chen would always turn back and fire a shot, using the bullets to limit Chen Quan’s pace. Fortunately, Ling Chen had excellent aim, with each shot targeting vital points, otherwise, Chen Quan wouldn’t even pay attention.

After several shots, the distance between Ling Chen and Chen Quan gradually expanded. However, Ling Chen’s actions also provoked Chen Quan, who shouted, swinging his arm fiercely, and hurled Seland’s body like a ball in Ling Chen’s direction.

Opportunity?

Ling Chen raised the assault rifle in his hands, intending to aim at Chen Quan’s vital points, but his sight was blocked by the flying Seland. This delay undoubtedly created an opportunity for Chen Quan to close in. By the time Ling Chen turned to escape, the latter had already closed in, his powerful fist punching straight towards Ling Chen’s back.

Thud!

With a spurt of blood, Ling Chen felt as if all the bones in his body were about to break apart, his body flying out and landing heavily on the ground.

Prone on the ground, Ling Chen looked at the assault rifle that had fallen nearby, wanting to reach out and grab it, but as soon as his arm moved slightly, a sharp pain surged through. Even someone as resilient as him couldn’t help but cry out.

His bones were certainly broken in several places, especially the spinal bones in his back, making it impossible for him to even stand up.
