Chapter 227: Chapter 227: Starting the Slaughter [Fifth Update]"A-grade fighter? Hmph, I ceased to be one ten years ago, you’re just too late to the party." Ye Xuan thought to himself, staring at the two corpses on the ground with an emotionless expression, void of any fluctuation in sentiment. It was as if the ones he’d killed weren’t human, just two ants! This Green Snake and Poison Bee, one wanted to kill him, while the other was the mastermind behind the abduction of Lu Miaochan, so Ye Xuan had to kill them both! Moreover, these two were experts in using poison, posing a greater threat to Ye Xuan than guns, and eliminating them first was also to secure his own safety. Bang! At that moment, a gunshot rang out. Someone had fired a shot! Ye Xuan’s gaze turned icy, a hint of murderous intent flashing through his eyes as he suddenly surged forward, fearlessly confronting the gunman and pressing onward. The gunman’s face changed, firing at Ye Xuan again, but with a slight sidestep, Ye Xuan easily dodged, the bullet whizzing by him. As he closed the distance, he leaped into the air, delivering a magnificent spinning kick straight into the chest of the gunman. Boom. It sounded like being struck by a train; the man’s body seemed to explode, blasted by a shockwave akin to a bomb’s, as he was sent flying backward into the air. The two men behind him couldn’t dodge in time, instantly hit and sent tumbling to the ground like spinning gourds, their guns flying out of their grasp! At the gunman’s chest, there was now a bloody cavernous hole, his heart kicked open by Ye Xuan, even the blood vessels inside visible. Thump! Without even a grunt, the man fell to the ground, struggling for a moment before dying on the spot. At this moment, the two men on the ground looked at Ye Xuan with eyes full of terror. This young man was too ruthless; in all the assignments they’d taken before, they’d never encountered a situation where firearms were useless. Bang! Bang! Just then, two more shots fired, two bullets carrying the breath of death heading straight for Ye Xuan. Alas, they failed to hit him; Ye Xuan was like a phantasm, slightly swaying left and right, and the bullets missed their mark. Swoosh! Ye Xuan moved with incredible speed, instantly appearing in front of the two men. Two fists, stirring up a tempest, struck out almost simultaneously with the ferocity to burst everything in their path! Powerless to react or evade, their auras completely locked down, they managed to let out only two pitiful screams before being smashed to the ground by Ye Xuan. Crack! Crack! Ye Xuan’s gaze was cold as he snapped their necks without hesitation. In the span of a few seconds, Ye Xuan had taken down five men; now only three were left, and of them, only one wielded a gun. However, before he could fire, Ye Xuan kicked up a pebble beside him, and the pebble shot out like a cannonball, slamming into the man’s head. Blood mist burst forth, his skull split open, and he died instantly! Seeing this, the two remaining men were completely dumbfounded, a casual kick of a pebble could kill—a scene reminiscent of movie special effects. Meanwhile, among the two on the ground, there was a buzz-cut hulk. Seeing all five of his comrades downed, he was profoundly shocked and, disregarding everything else, lunged for the guns lying on the ground. About to bend and pick one up, but at that moment, Ye Xuan appeared before him first, a leg whip wrapped in a gust of wind, as sharp as a blade’s edge, swept horizontally at him. Bang! The buzz-cut hulk couldn’t dodge in time, struck by Ye Xuan’s sweeping kick to the abdomen, his body instantly curling up as if he were a cooked shrimp, thrown heavily into the air. "Oww..." After hitting the ground, he let out a scream like a pig being slaughtered; at least three or four ribs were broken in his chest, and his facial expression twisted in agony. But at this moment, his heart was consumed by horror. How could this young man be so strong? So many people had attacked him, and yet they hadn’t even managed to touch his clothes while his own side had completely lost their fighting ability. This disparity was just too great. This was the first time since the Blood Wolf Mercenary Corps started taking on missions that they had suffered such a humiliating defeat, practically getting annihilated in minutes! A question couldn’t help but arise in his mind: since when had A-level fighters become so formidable? Not only had both Green Snake and Poison Bee been killed, but what was most terrifying was that the other party could even dodge bullets, nearly obliterating the entire Blood Wolf Mercenary Corps. Wolf Brother’s prediction had indeed come true; their adversary this time was extraordinary, to say the least—it was absurd! They had all underestimated their target. However, thinking of Wolf Brother, the crew-cut hulk felt slightly relieved. Even though they had been taken down, with the soul of the Blood Wolf Mercenary Corps, the formidable Mercenary King in presence, this kid, no matter how fierce, wouldn’t be able to stir up much trouble. Soon, Ye Xuan would certainly not escape death. Perhaps in the next moment, Wolf Brother would appear, and the opponent would fall before him. Ye Xuan picked up the gun from the ground, toyed with it in his hand, and looked at the crew-cut hulk with a playful smirk, "0.45 ACP caliber—M1911 pistol, a combat handgun exclusively used by the United States military forces. This gun’s specs are not bad. Tell me, who hired you? Was it that idiot Song Shaopeng?" Ye Xuan didn’t need to guess to know; eight or nine out of ten, it was Song Shaopeng behind this—the Song Family was the one with the biggest grudge against him. He had held back that kick just now because he wanted to get the answer from his opponent’s mouth; otherwise, he would have already kicked the crew-cut hulk to death. "Don’t ask me... We don’t know who our employer is." The crew-cut hulk’s eyes flickered as he clenched his teeth. "You don’t know?" Ye Xuan’s mouth curled up, and he pointed the gun in his hand at the man’s head, speaking indifferently, "I’m not one for idle talk. I usually let my actions do the speaking, so you’d best not play dumb with me, or I’ll feed you a bullet, and I won’t stop until this gun runs out of ammo..." "Oh, by the way, I should remind you, my marksmanship isn’t very accurate. If by any chance I hit a vital part of your body, you’ll just have to count on your luck!" Having said this, Ye Xuan cocked the gun, ready to shoot. "Wait... wait, don’t shoot! I’ll tell you, it was a guy called Old Black who contacted us." The crew-cut hulk hastily said. He didn’t doubt for a second that if he hesitated for one more moment, the young man before him would pull the trigger. He didn’t want to die, much less lose his life in vain! Maintaining confidentiality about the employer seemed insignificant compared to the chance to keep living. After all, he believed that Ye Xuan would die soon anyway, and what did it matter if a dead man knew these things? Ye Xuan narrowed his eyes; it was indeed Song Shaopeng! Old Black must also be acting under his orders. "What organization are you from?" "We are the Blood Wolf Mercenary Corps." "The Blood Wolf Mercenary Corps?" Ye Xuan’s eyes flashed as he asked, "Who’s your boss here?" "Our... our boss, he didn’t come." Bang! Ye Xuan fired the gun, a bullet piercing through the crew-cut’s thigh, immediately blowing open a bloody hole. "You’d better not play tricks in front of me because I can tell from your face and eyes whether you’re lying." "Our boss... I don’t know where he’s gone to." The crew-cut hulk’s face turned pale, sweat beading on his forehead as he stammered. Boss, stop hiding and kill him already! I can’t hold on much longer. The crew-cut hulk inwardly lamented. "Alright, I’m quite satisfied with your answer, so... you can die now!" Ye Xuan’s mouth turned up coldly as he pulled the trigger under the crew-cut hulk’s desperate gaze. Bang—a blood hole appeared on his forehead. Blood blossomed, shockingly macabre!
