Chapter 238: 238, Accidentally glanced at (3)_1 Chapter 238: 238, Accidentally glanced at (3)_1 âSis, it seems the great elder knew we would come to pick him up tonight. He even came out specially to greet us.â Jian Luoâs gaze fell on the man hiding behind Fei En, and he responded with a smile that wasnât quite a smile.
Jian Qing glanced over casually, her gaze landing on Fei En.
âLeader Fei En, I believe we have some past grievances to settle.â Her frosty voice in the dark night felt even more chilling.
Fei En feigned confusion, âWhat do you mean, Lady Jian? As far as I remember, my Bruce Syndicate has no dealings with the Jian Family. Whereâs this âsettling accountsâ coming from?â
Surely, a man with no shame is invincible.
Jian Qingâs eyes turned cold; her voice was colder still, âFei En, since you canât figure out what grievances we need to settle, let me kindly remind you.â
Before she finished speaking, she took out her phone and made a call.
âAttack!â
A chill ran through Fei Enâs heart, followed by an ominous premonition.
Before he could question, a warplane hovering overhead started to move towards them.
Everyone looked up, their eyes anxiously glued to the warplane. Suddenly, it came to a halt, and then an almost imperceptible black object dropped directly down.
That wasâ
Everyoneâs eyes shrunkâŠa bomb!
âBoomââ
A loud explosion echoed, flames rose, and the fierce fire filled their sight.
âAhââ
Heart-rending screams echoed through the air, sending chills down everyoneâs spines.
âJian Qing!â Fei En glared at Jian Qing with venom in his eyes and a voice laced with poison.
Jian Qing responded unaffected, âDid anything come to your mind?â
âWhat on earth are you trying to do, Jian Qing? You called in a warplane with utter disregard for the rules of this world, instigating a war. The government of M Country wonât let you do this!â
Jian Qing gave a cold chuckle and stepped forward, âFei En, it intrigues me how someone as naive as you could become the leader of the Bruce Syndicate. Do you really think that I would come here with a warplane without any preparation?â
Whether it was the underworld or the legal world, everyone valued their own interests. The Bruce Syndicate is an assassin organization. Their destruction would be nothing but beneficial to the people in the government of M Country who would be pleased to see them removed by any means, let alone stopping them.
Fei En calmed down after being pressured by Jian Qing. He quickly realized she was right. Especially after seeing Black Jack nearby, a suspicion arose in his mind.
Looks like this time, the officials of M Country are siding with the Jian Family.
âLeader, what are we going to do next?â Fei Enâs trusted man was getting anxious.
âDeploy our warplanes. Letâs both sink together if we have to.â Fei Enâs eyes hardened, and he said through gritted teeth.
No matter what, he wouldnât let Jian Qing have her way easily.
âUnderstood.â
The man relayed the orders. But before their warplanes could even take off, Jian Qingâs side was already moving.
They struck first, leaving no room for recovery.
âBang bangââ
The smell of gunpowder was getting thicker, accompanied by the continual sound of explosions.
Noticing the direction of the dropping bombs, Fei Enâs eyes turned scarlet. He turned around to glare at Jian Qing.
âJian Qing, what the hell do you want to do?â
Jian Qing smirked with a cold glimmer in her eyes, âIsnât it just bombing Leader Fei Enâs arms research base? Surely the leader isnât so petty!â
Black Jack and Jian Luo held back their laughter, impressed with Jian Qingâs audacity.
The arms research base was the biggest investment for the Bruce Syndicate. The explosion was bound to be massive, so Fei Enâs shock was understandable.
The members of the Bruce Syndicate watched as flames consumed their investment, feeling a wave of shock.
All their efforts were destroyed in an instant.
âJian Qing, tell me, how did you get our Bruce Syndicateâs terrain map? How did you locate us?â Fei En wasnât a fool. He quickly realized something wasnât right.
Considering all the places in the world, of all the places Jian Qing could choose to bomb, she targeted his arms research base. This was no coincidence, and he didnât believe it for a second.
Jian Qing looked at him approvingly, raising her chin slightly, âA terrain map is something you can find by searching, and unfortunately, I happened to glance over it and memorized it instantly. My sincere apologies.â
âJian Qing, I wonât let this go.â Fei En clenched his fist, his face contorted in anger. He gave an order to his men, âKill her.â
As he spoke, the assassins stationed around Fei En swarmed out, each armed with a gun.
âAttack!â Jian Qing raised her hand, slightly tapping her forehead.
The chilly words dissolved into the air, and the Nether Army, standing upright, disappeared from view in a blink of an eye.
âHissââ
The assassins of the Bruce Syndicate stopped abruptly, their fingers on the trigger tensed up. They were taken aback.
What just happened?
The men in black⊠where did they go?
âThatâs ⊠the Nether⊠Nether ArmyâŠâ Baggot, hiding in a corner, was taken aback by the supernatural agility of the men in black and especially by the emblem on their clothes. It sent a chill down his spine.
Fei En also noticed that the men in black brought by Jian Qing were out of the ordinary. Astonished, he heard what Baggot barely whispered and immediately dragged him over.
âWhatâs the Nether Army?â
Baggot shivered as he stammered, âThe Nether Army⊠the most mysterious personal guard of the Jian Family. Nobody, other than the Jian Family, has ever seen them.â
This army was the Jian Familyâs deadliest weapon, a group that only followed commands from the Jian Familyâs ruler.
Jian Qing even called up the Nether Army. It was clear she was determined to finish off the Bruce Syndicate this time.
âWell, well. It seems Baggot, the elder, still knows the Jian family quite well despite being away from the family for two years.â A chilling voice rang out, filled with an unseen threat.
Fei En looked up to see Jian Qing had already made her way in through the iron gate.
He released Baggot and stared hard at Jian Qing, âWhat do you really want, Jian Qing?â
âWhat do I want?â A cold smile appeared on Jian Qingâs lips, âFei En, do you not understand? I did say I was here to settle some debts. So, how about you repay that shot my grandpa took with your blood.â
Before finishing her sentence, she rushed forward with a lightning-like speed and punched him in the face.
Her ghostly speed and savage strength gave Fei En no chance to dodge.
Her punch landed hard on his face, and he could taste the metallic hint of blood in his mouth.
