"Don't..."
Qin Shengtian wanted to say something more, but before he could open his mouth, his neck was easily snapped, and his head was severed.
Only his elder eyes, wide open in disbelief, bulged out, causing immense horror.
"Drip!"
"Drip!"
Crimson blood splattered onto the ground, quickly forming a pool.
At the same time, it struck the heart of every Qin family member, making their hearts tremble with each falling drop!
Bai Zihe's chilling voice echoed, "Remember what I said!"
"On the day of the memorial, the entire Qin family shall kneel and beg for forgiveness. Not one shall be spared!"
With that.
Bai Zihe tossed Qin Shengtian's head onto the coffee table and turned away with a flourish.
"Clang!"
Qin Shengtian's head rolled a short distance on the coffee table before stopping, facing the assembled crowd. His elder eyes were wide open in death, still etched with lingering terror.
The Qin family members trembled uncontrollably!
"This..."
"Bai Zihe is truly terrifying. He even wiped out the assassin group..."
"The old master was also killed by him. What are we to do?"
"Big brother, what should we do?" All the Qin family members were in a panic.
Shock, fear, and despair!
Countless negative emotions enveloped their hearts, spreading like a contagion!
"At this juncture..."
Qin Wuguo's throat felt dry, his voice hoarse, "The old master was brutally murdered by Bai Zihe. Our Qin family is now headless. Not only do we face Bai Zihe's threat, but we must also guard against any influential families who might make a move!"
"For now..."
"We must immediately contact our niece, Qin Biluo, and ask her to return to take charge of the situation!"
Everyone nodded deeply.
Indeed!
The Qin family was a large enterprise. As the saying goes, "When a wall crumbles, everyone pushes." They not only had to guard against Bai Zihe but also against those influential families with ill intentions!
"Big brother is right!"
"Only she can save our Qin family!"
"Also, since Bai Zihe disdains the Luo family, these words should be conveyed to them!"
A consensus was quickly reached.
Qin Yougong said in a low voice, "I will contact niece Biluo immediately!"
...
Outside the compound
Bai Zihe emerged with the Golden Thread Qilin, only to see a group of people rushing from a distance.
They were all clad in US-style camouflage uniforms, their eyes fixed sharply on Bai Zihe!
On the cuffs of each of their sleeves.
Was a soaring eagle with outstretched wings – the renowned Flying Eagle Mercenary Group internationally!
These mercenaries swiftly formed ranks, encircling Bai Zihe.
A leader wearing sunglasses stepped forward, scrutinizing Bai Zihe from head to toe. With a crude accent and disdain, he spoke, "You are Bai Zihe?"
"I don't see much that makes you so capable, yet your life is worth one hundred million!"
"But it's fine..."
"Good money, and it saves trouble!"
He then let out a brazen laugh, clearly not taking Bai Zihe seriously.
The other mercenaries echoed his sentiment, laughing heartily, "Indeed, boss!"
"This is probably the easiest mission of the year."
"No, after this mission is completed, I'm going to find some hot chicks to relax properly!"
"Me too!"
"..."
These mercenaries utterly disregarded Bai Zihe, speaking boastfully and venting freely.
In their eyes, Bai Zihe was already a trapped beast!
To toy with him before death offered a different kind of thrill!
This was one of their few pleasures during missions.
Bai Zihe's expression was indifferent. "Who sent you?"
"Originally..."
The sunglasses leader spoke slowly, "For mercenary groups like us, employer information is strictly confidential!"
"However, seeing as you're a dying man, I'll let you die with some clarity!"
"Listen carefully! It is the Flying Eagle Mercenary Group who is here to kill you! And the one who wants you dead is Ling Chengbai of the Ling family in Suzhou and Hangzhou!"
The Ling family!
Bai Zihe's eyes narrowed, a killing intent radiating from him, "That makes sense."
"Among the three major families, only this Ling family has not yet shed blood, has not had anyone die!"
"It seems I should be fair and let them see some blood!"
His words, filled with killing intent, made the sunglasses leader pause for a moment, then burst into laughter, "Do you really think you have a chance to deal with the Ling family?"
"Naive!"
"Foolish!"
"This is your burial ground. You're not going anywhere!" He then signaled to the other mercenaries.
Bai Zihe said calmly, "Just the likes of you cannot keep me here."
"Arrogant!"
The sunglasses leader, who had intended to savor Bai Zihe's despair, was infuriated by these arrogant words. "Kid, you have successfully angered me!"
"I've decided not to kill you just yet!"
"I'm going to torture you thoroughly before slowly finishing you off!"
"Swish!"
He slowly raised his handgun, the dark muzzle pointed at Bai Zihe.
"Kid, do you see this?"
"The moment I pull this trigger, there will be a large hole in your forehead!"
The sunglasses leader stepped forward, not forgetting to verbally provoke Bai Zihe.
But to his annoyance, Bai Zihe's eyes held no trace of fear, only a hint of disdain.
"You!"
The sunglasses leader, enraged, slowly pulled the trigger.
However, he did not aim at Bai Zihe's head but at one of his legs.
He wanted to torment Bai Zihe slowly.
He wanted to witness Bai Zihe's humility and despair as he knelt and begged for mercy!
Bang!!!
Just then, a deafening roar echoed from a distance.
Simultaneously.
A massive bullet, the size of an arm.
No!
It should be called a "grenade"!
This grenade, fast as a shooting star, directly struck the hand holding the pistol of the sunglasses leader.
In an instant.
Blood splattered, and flesh flew!
