Chapter 70 All's Fair in War
Ling Fan put down the phone and glanced at an address sent by Zhou Zhenxiong, his expression darkening.
Xiao Chubing doubled back and came to Ling Fan's side, "What's wrong, did something happen to Yun Fei?"
"Yeah, she was taken by Hong Dewei. I knew I should've killed that fucker today at Hong Corporation!" Ling Fan said grimly.
The main issue was that this fucker not only kidnapped Yun Fei but also ruined the moment he had with his wife.
Xiao Chubing was also sighing to herself, wondering why married life had to be so fraught with difficulties...
"You better hurry, if you're late Yun Fei might fall into the devil's clutches!" Xiao Chubing urged anxiously.
When it came to matters of great importance, she was clear-headed and wouldn't nag foolishly.
"Yeah, go rest early, I might not be able to return tonight. If anything happens to Yun Fei, I'll wipe out his entire family!" Ling Fan said coldly.
"Be careful yourself!" Xiao Chubing admonished.
"Don't worry, take care of yourself at home!" Ling Fan kissed Xiao Chubing on the forehead, then immediately turned and hurried out the door.
Watching Ling Fan's figure disappear at the doorway, Xiao Chubing wrapped her sleep gown tighter around herself, muttering, "Hopefully there won't be any more unexpected problems next time!"
...
Binzhou, suburbs, a secluded private villa.
Yun Fei lay on the bed, her mouth stuffed with stockings and her hands tied behind her back, her face filled with terror as she looked at the ferocious Hong Dewei, who was toying with a device in his hand. Her heart was ice cold.
Hong Dewei eyed Yun Fei's creamy jade-like legs and twirled a small leather whip in his hand, his vicious smile revealing his thoughts: "Damn it, instead of drinking a toast, you incur a forfeit. You just had to make me get rough.
Don't worry, I won't do anything to you just yet, I hope that loser won't disappoint me. After he gets here, I'm going to strip you bit by bit right in front of him, hahaha..."
Yun Fei's face was pale, her eyes filled with endless terror. She had not imagined Hong Dewei could be so monstrously cruel.
"This villa has been modified. Right now, this bedroom is basically a secret chamber!" Hong Dewei boasted proudly.
With that, he pressed a button on a remote control, and a large projection appeared on the wall, capable of monitoring the outside of the villa.
The next second, the screen switched to the bedroom scene.
"Everything that's about to happen here will be recorded, including your upcoming performance!" Hong Dewei sneered, stood up, and moved to Yun Fei's side, pulling the stockings out of her mouth.
Yun Fei couldn't help but shift her ice-cold body backward, her voice trembling, "You... you better let me go quickly, Ling Fan won't let you off!"
Right then, Ling Fan was her only hope; she dared not imagine what Hong Dewei would do to her next!
Just then, the screen showed the villa entrance, just as a handsome figure stoically appeared outside the villa.
"Oh! Quite brave to actually come. Since you dared to show up, I'll let you thoroughly 'enjoy' the spectacular scene that's about to unfold!" Hong Dewei said, a somber look crossing his face as he watched Ling Fan approach.
"Young Master Hong, there's still time for you to back off the cliff. Ling Fan is also a martial artist. If you let me go, I can plead with him not to hold a grudge against you!" Yun Fei had a flash of inspiration, looking for a chance to escape.
Hong Dewei was momentarily stunned, then incredulously looked at Yun Fei and burst into laughter, "Fuck, you think you can trick me? You seem to know a lot. Do you think just anyone can become a martial artist?
I come from the Zhongnan Hong Family with deep roots, and I haven't even begun my journey in cultivating martial arts. You say that loser is a martial artist? Do you think I'm that easy to fool?
I advise you to give up all your fantasies. Even if he is a martial artist, so what? First Grade? Second Grade? Do you think I'd capture you without any support? In this villa, my family has martial arts experts!"
Hearing this, Yun Fei felt as if her heart had plummeted to the bottom of an abyss.
As Hong Dewei saw Ling Fan enter the villa through the screen, he immediately turned off the projection and picked up the phone to order, "Elder Hong, break that kid's legs and bring him in!"
After finishing, he walked up to Yun Fei, grabbed her hair, and with his left hand, he shoved a small medicine pill into her mouth.
"Cough cough... cough..."
"What... what did you give me to eat?" Yun Fei's face was filled with horror.
"Hehe, something good, a treasure that will allow you to release your true self to the fullest!" Hong Dewei sneered with a sinister laugh.
In the villa's main hall, Ling Fan's face was grim as he stared at the elderly man before him.
"Hand over Yun Fei, and you can die a painless death. Otherwise, I'll tear you into eight pieces!" Ling Fan said indifferently.
Elder Hong stood with his hands behind his back, arrogantly slanting a glance at Ling Fan and sneering, "Ignorant of the enormity of the heavens and the earth, have the young people of today really become so arrogant?"
"Old man, save my time and don't take my words for farts, you'd better be a bit more sensible!" Ling Fan said impatiently.
Elder Hong's face changed slightly, and he let out a cold snort, "Boy, then let this old man see if your skills are as hard as your mouth. In a moment, when I break your legs, you will witness a good show!"
With that, his figure suddenly darted forward, charging at Ling Fan.
Through the man's movement techniques, Ling Fan had already deduced the old man's approximate cultivation and mentally sneered, "A Third Grade martial artist daring to play the charlatan in front of me? Even if facing a warrior of the Grandmaster Realm, I am eighty percent confident I can make them spit out teeth!"
Elder Hong's clawed hands were poised like hooks, his momentum was breathtaking, his movements raising a gust of wind as he lunged at Ling Fan's shoulders, aiming to restrain him first, then break his legs, before bringing him before Hong Dewei.
Ling Fan stood with his hands behind his back, looking indifferently at the pouncing Elder Hong, without moving an inch.
Seeing Ling Fan stand there like a fool, Elder Hong sneered, "Turns out he's a fool who's all talk and no action!"
Just as Elder Hong was about to touch Ling Fan, Ling Fan's figure suddenly dropped and his right leg kicked out like lightning.
"Crack... crack..."
Two harsh sounds of bones breaking suddenly pierced the air, followed by Ling Fan arching backward, his hands moving like sealing some spell, grabbing Elder Hong's arms and shaking them violently with another two 'crack' sounds.
Elder Hong's eyes widened with muddled vision, his face filled with extreme shock.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
There he was, kneeling on the ground, arms dangling powerless, all four limbs broken in a blink.
"You... You're a Grandmaster Realm martial artist?" Elder Hong's spirit was shattered, and he trembled.
"I wouldn't quite say Grandmaster Realm, but even if it were, I wouldn't fear it! Tell me, in which room is Yun Fei?" Ling Fan asked calmly.
"Hehe, you might as well kill me, I'm dead either way, I will not tell!" Elder Hong, knowing his fate, decided to act tough.
Ling Fan squinted at Elder Hong and let out a sneer, "You've played the dog for so long and managed to learn loyalty too? Want to taste the 'Heart Devouring Gu'?"
Elder Hong's body shook violently, and his expression changed drastically as he trembled, "You... you... what is your relationship with the Myriad Poison Lair?"
The Myriad Poison Lair was little known in the Secular World, only notorious within the Martial Arts World. It wasn't located on Zhongnan Mountain but in the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains of the Northern Region, deriving from the mysterious lineage of the Witchcraft Sect.
There's a saying in the Martial Arts World, "Zhongnan in the south, Myriad Poison in the north." Compared to Zhongnan Mountain, the Myriad Poison Lair of the Northern Region was even more mysterious and formidable.
The 'Heart Devouring Gu' was rumored to be one of the most terrifying Gu Arts. The victim would endure 49 days of excruciating heart-devouring pain, only to watch, with eyes open, as countless Gu worms consumed their flesh, leaving behind a skeleton with a still-beating heart—truly a frightful tale.
"Last chance, don't doubt my words!" With that, Ling Fan took out a small jade vial from his hand.
Seeing this, Elder Hong's face underwent drastic changes, his throat went dry, and he quivered, "The basement level, please make it quick!"
Ling Fan put away the jade vial and nodded slightly, "Thank you, I don't actually have the 'Heart Devouring Gu,' but I can make it quick for you."
"You..." Elder Hong's eyes bulged round.
"Crack!"
The next second, Ling Fan acted like lightning, directly twisting Elder Hong's neck.
"Farewell, no send-off needed. Haven't you heard that all is fair in war?" Ling Fan said calmly.
Then, his figure flashed, and he dashed towards the basement level.
