CHAPTER 636: CHAPTER 635 LEAVING (4/5)

Inside the hotel.

After arranging things for Wei Xueqing, Sun Yue sat in Yang Chen’s room.

Gao Hong sat across from Sun Yue, looking at her with a silly smile.

Soon, Yang Chen returned.

Sun Yue glanced over and noticed that Yang Chen was still impeccably clean, with not a trace of blood on him.

She frowned and said, "You let Bai Zhuang go?"

Yang Chen coldly replied, "Anyone who crosses my bottom line will not remain alive!"

Sun Yue was taken aback and looked at Yang Chen again, noticing not the slightest hint of blood.

He didn’t know that Yang Chen had a cleanliness obsession, particularly when it came to killing.

He hated coming into contact with someone else’s blood; it was too dirty for him.

Perhaps this had something to do with his time on the Lijia Continent, where he despised getting blood on him.

Yang Chen sat down, poured a glass of water, and said mildly to Sun Yue, "You go handle it, and I’ll await the results tomorrow."

Sun Yue hesitated, gave Yang Chen a deep look, stood up, nodded, and walked out.

After leaving the room, Sun Yue went to the prefab house.

On the second floor, she saw several corpses at the door.

All of them had died by having their necks broken, with no sound and no sign of resistance.

Breaking so many necks in such a short time—she certainly couldn’t do it and couldn’t imagine how Yang Chen managed it.

Stepping over the bodies, Sun Yue entered the room and saw a person collapsed in a pool of blood in the corner. Her pupils constricted, a look of fear flashing across her face.

She was frightened by the scene in front of her!

Honestly, she had executed countless missions with Ye Xin and had seen all kinds of situations.

But this brutal scene in front of her was a first!

Sun Yue stared at the person in front of her, her lips trembling, uttering two words: "Blood Eagle!"

Indeed, the method Yang Chen used was Blood Eagle!

This was a savage punishment invented by the Vikings, and Sun Yue didn’t expect to witness it here.

Actually, Bai Zhuang wasn’t dead at this point, as she could still see his lungs moving.

Although Sun Yue didn’t know what method Yang Chen used to keep Bai Zhuang alive for so long, from the current situation, Bai Zhuang was expected to hold on for at least a few more hours before dying.

After some thought, Sun Yue approached and personally ended Bai Zhuang’s life.

"Remember, don’t provoke those you shouldn’t, and don’t do bad things. Perhaps you won’t reincarnate as a human in your next life, but still, remember this!"

Having said this, Sun Yue began putting on gloves to handle the scene.

...

The next day.

Yang Chen woke up, opened the door, and saw Sun Yue standing at the door.

"Didn’t sleep all night?" Yang Chen asked.

Sun Yue nodded.

Yang Chen sighed and said to Sun Yue, "Let’s go for a run together."

Sun Yue still nodded.

The two of them went outside the town for a run.

While running, Sun Yue reported to Yang Chen.

"Bai Zhuang was part of a network. His role was to sell worthless raw stones at high prices to make a profit. Actually, he only got ten percent, and the rest of the money had to be turned in."

Yang Chen asked, "Did you find out who was behind it?"

"I know their supply chain and specific locations, but I haven’t uncovered their exact background," Sun Yue replied honestly.

"How long will it take?"

"Three to five days."

Yang Chen thought for a moment and said, "Forget it, contact the other side and let Chen Xiaohuo take over Bai Zhuang’s position."

"Got it!"

...

After the run, Yang Chen returned, and they all had breakfast together.

Wei Xueqing had calmed down a lot, acting as if the events of yesterday never occurred, and was very indifferent toward Yang Chen.

During breakfast, packing up, and going to Chen Xiaohuo’s shop, Wei Xueqing didn’t say a word to Yang Chen.

At Chen Xiaohuo’s shop, Yang Chen got straight to the point, "We’re leaving."

"Huh?" Chen Xiaohuo was stunned, "Leaving now?"

"Yes!"

"Oh no!" Chen Xiaohuo panicked, "Stay a few more days."

Yang Chen shook his head.

Seeing Yang Chen’s firm expression, Chen Xiaohuo knew there was no changing Yang Chen’s mind.

He put on a miserable face, "Brother, if you leave just like that, I’ll follow you!"

Yang Chen frowned slightly.

"Brother, don’t get me wrong, I’m not trying to stick to you. I’m just helpless! If you leave, no one’s got my back, and Bai Zhuang will definitely come for me. I’d rather start over in the city with you than be finished here," Chen Xiaohuo explained.

Yang Chen said calmly, "No need, Bai Zhuang is already dead!"

"What?" Chen Xiaohuo was stunned, "Dead?"

He found the news hard to believe and stared wide-eyed at Yang Chen.

Yang Chen nodded and said to Chen Xiaohuo, "You can keep the Navigator; just give me that ice-clear jade."

"Really?" At the mention of the Navigator, Chen Xiaohuo’s face lit up with joy, staring at Yang Chen, "Really, Brother?"

"Yes!"

"Great!" Chen Xiaohuo was overjoyed, dancing with excitement.

Yang Chen frowned, "Hand over the item first!"

"Oh, okay!" Chen Xiaohuo hurried to the inner room and brought out the ice-clear jade, "This jade is very valuable; it can easily sell for three to five million."

Afraid Yang Chen didn’t know the price, Chen Xiaohuo emphasized.

Yang Chen nodded, not even glancing at the jade, and directly passed it to Gao Hong, "Did you hear? Convert the jade to cash to settle our brothers’ families!"

"Yes!" Gao Hong carefully took the jade and nodded seriously, "Rest assured, I’ll fulfill the task!"

"No." Seeing this, Chen Xiaohuo asked, "Brother, you have other comrades’ families unsettled?"

Yang Chen thought a bit and nodded slightly.

"That’s not right, I also want to contribute! How much money is needed, I’ll donate!" Chen Xiaohuo immediately took out his wallet.

Seeing Chen Xiaohuo like this, Yang Chen couldn’t help but think of Bamboo Pole, who was also generous, always treating others’ problems as his own, very warm-hearted.

Yang Chen smiled, "No need, just take good care of yourself, that’s enough for us."

Chen Xiaohuo thought for a moment, "Then, give me the jade, and I’ll sell it. After all, I’m in the circle and can fetch a better price."

Yang Chen said, "I’ve already given it to Gao Hong; you can talk to him about it."

Chen Xiaohuo immediately looked at Gao Hong.

Gao Hong thought for a moment, handed the jade to Chen Xiaohuo, and said, "You’re my brother’s little brother; I trust you!"

Taking the jade, Chen Xiaohuo said to Gao Hong, "Brother, write down the account, and I’ll make sure to transfer the money!"

Gao Hong nodded and wrote down the account.

After everything was settled, Yang Chen bade farewell to Chen Xiaohuo.

Chen Xiaohuo walked with Yang Chen and the others to the village’s edge, watching them drive off into the distance. It wasn’t until they were completely out of sight that he wiped away a tear and turned back toward the town.

He really couldn’t get used to it; it was like suddenly having a new family and then losing them abruptly—the sense of loss was more overwhelming than owing a million yuan.
