As it turns out, no matter how powerful you are, how dazzling your titles are, or how astonishing your wealth is,

In close combat, when two people meet on a narrow path, it still comes down to individual strength.

The saying "When two armies meet on a narrow path, the brave shall prevail" is particularly applicable in today's situation.

Qin Feng was utterly horrified.

He hadn't expected Chen Wang to arrive so quietly in front of him.

"Where are my bodyguards? They've all gone off to do nothing!"

His mind raced with thoughts.

Although the hallucinogenic drugs he had just taken had left him somewhat disoriented, he forced himself to calm down.

Only then did he sadly realize that although he had always looked down on Chen Wang, who came from a freelance background,

He wielded immense power; fourth-tier warriors were at his beck and call, while fifth-tier warriors were merely his bodyguards and henchmen.

His grandfather was a veteran of Qiongqi Mining, and he will reach that level in the future, or even higher.

With this background, his future is bright.

But now Qin Feng has to admit that he is indeed afraid under the current circumstances.

"Haven't seen you for a long time."

Qin Feng wore a calm smile, appearing harmless.

"You, a fourth-order Wind God, will probably have to pay a heavy price to eliminate the side effects of the Gene Serum."

Chen Wang said.

Qin Feng was startled.

Only a handful of people knew that he was the God of Wind God; ordinary people only knew that he was a powerful and influential scion.

How did you know?

Qin Feng said in a deep voice.

Chen Wang sneered, "You know, I know, you don't know, but I also know that the difference in our status is too great now. You should realize this sooner rather than later."

Qin Feng had been trying to stabilize the situation and wait for an opportunity to act, but at this moment he broke down and his face darkened.

The key point is that he can't refute what Chen Wang is saying now.

Chen Wang, as the Church's Son of God, the only Son of God, is said to be able to guide God back.

Against this backdrop, the resources he could control and the power he could mobilize were simply too vast.

Although he has a powerful background, his grandfather was just one of a few elders.

Moreover, if he were to do anything, he wouldn't be able to get the strong support of the other elders.

Qin Feng said, "It's only been a few months, but it's really impressive."

"It was all a misunderstanding before. We can talk about more cooperation in the future. Of course, I can make it up to you before that."

At this moment, he was gentle and refined, and looked extremely scholarly.

This is completely different from the face he had when he killed a young girl in the guesthouse.

Chen Wang had no interest in chatting with him. He sneered, "Are you scared?"

"You're nothing but a fat sheep. Once you fall into my hands, I'll make you beg me to kill you."

He mimicked Qin Feng's tone, his face full of mockery.

Qin Feng's face immediately turned red. When someone is caught talking to themselves, no matter what they say, it always makes them feel embarrassed.

Especially now, he was not at all like the person he claimed to be when facing Chen Wang; he was the one who was easy prey for Chen Wang.

Although they were both at the fourth rank, he lacked confidence in facing this young man.

Chen Wang sneered, "Trying to play dumb, to appear on the surface as a privileged young master while actually being a highly capable fourth-tier warrior?"

"But in reality, you're just a coward. What's the point of all this fancy stuff? You're still a coward at heart."

These words were like a knife to the heart.

In an instant, Qin Feng's eyes turned somewhat red.

He gritted his teeth, clenched his fists so tightly that his nails dug deep into his flesh, drawing blood.

What exactly do you want to do?

Chen Wang looked at him with pity. "If I were you, I would have taken the opportunity to leave after calming the people who came, and then fought to the death."

"But you don't dare, because of your background and your arrogant mind, you think you can buy yourself time and change the situation."

"You think someone like you is more valuable to me? As long as you're alive, we can talk."

"But in reality, you are nothing. In my eyes, you are not even as good as a stray dog on the roadside, or rather, like an ant. I can crush you to death if I want to."

Chen Wang looked at him with disdain.

Qin Feng gritted his teeth,

He had been quite good at maintaining his composure, but at this moment his defenses were completely breached, and Chen Wang's words hit him right where it hurt.

The veins on his neck were bulging, his blood vessels were dilated, and he was already breathing heavily.

The other person's attitude greatly displeased him. He was always the one showing off, but today someone else was even more arrogant than him! "If you dare to lay a hand on me, I guarantee you won't leave this Shelter alive!"

Qin Feng threatened him, his face pale.

Chen Wang flashed and appeared in front of him.

Qin Feng was startled and immediately transformed into a gentle breeze.

But the next moment, Chen Wang knocked him out, and he coughed up blood and fell to his knees.

He never expected that he could be directly attacked even in his Wind Incarnation.

His eyes were bloodshot as he stared at Chen Wang in terror.

Chen Wang remained expressionless and kicked him in the knee. With a crack, his Chen Wang shattered, the bone breaking and bleeding.

He let out a terrible scream, a sound that was extremely alarming.

But the surroundings were quiet, and there was no sound.

"Go ahead and shout, no one will come to save you even if you shout until you're hoarse."

Chen Wang said coldly.

Qin Feng was terrified. He staggered backward, dragging his broken leg, his face filled with disbelief.

"Impossible! What did you do?"

He felt that Chen Wang's methods seemed to be beyond his imagination.

Moreover, Chen Wang is ridiculously strong. You should know that I am also a fourth-level warrior. Although I may not be his match, I should not have been beaten so badly in one move that I was powerless to fight back.

At that moment, Qin Feng's vision blurred, and Chen Wang vanished into thin air, only to reappear in front of him the next instant. Slap! A slap landed on his face!

Qin Feng's face swelled up rapidly, half of his teeth were knocked out, blood was dripping from his face, half of his face was swollen like a pig's head, and his ears were ringing.

He was a fourth-tier warrior with an extremely powerful physique, yet he was completely disoriented by that slap.

His eye was bloodshot as he looked at Chen Wang, his vision filled with crimson.

Although the young man, dressed only in casual clothes, didn't say anything harsh, the murderous aura emanating from him was chilling.

"You've disappointed me so much. We've been talking for so long, and you still haven't come up with a way to get the people outside to break in."

"I gave you a chance, but you were useless."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Wang slapped him across the face again.

Qin Feng tried to dodge, but even in his gentle breeze form, he was still struck by the slap.

With a bang! He flew out sideways like a rolling gourd.

His teeth were all knocked out, and he was dizzy from being beaten by Chen Wang.

Moreover, this method is too humiliating.

He has never been slapped in the face since he was a child.

His grandfather valued him highly, believing that he resembled himself in his youth. As a result, he held a very high position in the Lineage, and even his father treated him with great courtesy.

Unexpectedly, right here in his own guesthouse, he was beaten so badly that he couldn't fight back at all, and was even humiliatingly slapped across the face.

Slap! Slap! Slap Chen Wang slapped him more than a dozen times in a row, one on the front and one on the back.

He controlled his strength, neither beating him to death nor knocking him unconscious.

It caused Qin Feng immense pain, making him scream like a pig being slaughtered, yet he couldn't die or faint.

At this moment, Qin Feng's body fell to the ground.

With a bang! Chen Wang stomped down with one foot, crushing his foot into powder and even twisting it.

Qin Feng screamed in agony, letting out a shrill cry.

He slapped Chen Wang's leg hard, trying to move him away.

However, subconscious actions have no effect whatsoever.

"I was doing just fine, and now you want to confine me with a single sentence."

"Fuck your mother, I've been giving you too much credit!"

Chen Wang then stepped on his crotch.

With a bang!

He crushed the lump between Qin Feng's legs into powder.

Qin Feng writhed on the ground like a maggot, veins bulging on his face, in great pain.

He Wind Incarnation, only to be kicked out of his body by Chen Wang.

This time, they stomped on his thigh and broke it, leaving him in an extremely contorted position.

"Aaaaaah!!!"

Qin Feng screamed in agony.

The young man before him was a demon, a terrifying demon! "That day you sent people to ambush me, weren't you watching me through a screen? I've heard some things, and you seem to enjoy watching this kind of bloody performance."

Chen Wang smiled.

"I'm sorry, I used too much force just now. Let me treat you."

As a power emanated from Chen Wang, a flash of white light appeared, and Qin Feng's manhood grew back intact.

This strange feeling made Qin Feng pause for a moment. Although his other injuries had not healed, the most important thing about him had returned to normal, which surprised Qin Feng. It was all the more precious that he had regained what he had lost.

But Chen Wang, expressionless, stomped down again, with a bang! Having experienced the same pain twice, Qin Feng simply couldn't bear it.

He screamed in agony, his head slamming against the ground, but he couldn't break free and was pinned down by Chen Wang.

Chen Wang twirled the needle a few times, making a chilling sound.

"This is the power of healing. How about it? Do you like it?"

Chen Wang's voice was slow and calm, but to Qin Feng's ears it sounded like the most terrifying demon.

"Please, spare me! Spare me! I'll give you anything you want, and I'll tell you any information you need!"

Qin Feng begged for mercy incoherently, tears, snot, and blood streaming down his face, making him look extremely disheveled and miserable.

A smile appeared on Chen Wang's lips. "You said something wrong earlier. It's not that I can't die even if I want to if I'm in your hands, but that it's difficult for you to die if you want to if you're in my hands."

Immediately, Chen Wang's five fingers, like hooks, pierced directly into his skull with a soft "plop!"

Like inserting tofu.

He used a soul-searching technique, and to ensure the search was thorough, he had been constantly provoking Qin Feng with his words.

Moreover, they beat him terribly, completely shattering his psychological defenses.

Of course, this was also to vent the anger in his heart.

At this moment, Qin Feng let out a miserable scream, a hundred times more miserable than the screams he had made when he was seriously injured before. Of course, the pain was also a hundred times more intense.

Those who have never had their soul searched cannot know this kind of suffering.

A slight injury to the soul is a hundred or a thousand times more painful than a physical injury; even the most resolute man cannot withstand it, as it is beyond human control.

When Qin Feng's body was discovered, even the well-trained soldiers couldn't help but be moved.

The manner of the death was so gruesome that it was clear the person had suffered an extremely terrible attack before dying.

Qin Feng's background is destined to turn this case into an extremely horrific bloodbath, which will quickly spread throughout Qiongqi Mining.

Qin Feng's grandfather, one of the founding members of Qiongqi Mining, was furious! Qin Feng was his most valued grandson. Although he was a bit stubborn, with a little guidance, he would become a capable and charismatic figure.

He also regarded Qin Feng as an important successor.

But now, his beloved grandson, despite being heavily protected by several high-ranking Gene Warrior and surrounded by soldiers, was still brutally murdered after someone broke into his room! This powerful man was furious.

The people in the room were all high-ranking officials with real power in Qiongqi Mining.

But even in front of this old man, they were trembling with fear.

One of the middle-aged men wore gold-rimmed glasses and looked somewhat scholarly.

He was the old man's son and Qin Feng's father.

However, this old man always valued his grandson more.

Perhaps the old man saw some qualities in Qin Feng. He believed that Qin Feng was decisive and ruthless, and with some training, he could be of great use, while his own son was too weak and unlikely to amount to anything.

But now, his most cherished grandson is dead, and he has died a tragic death.

"How on earth did the security work?! A few fourth-tier warriors, plus so many soldiers, were able to have someone sneak in silently and kill someone inside the room!"

"The entire guesthouse is operating as usual, and nobody knows!"

"You're all fucking good-for-nothings!"

The old man's eyes were bloodshot, like an enraged lion, and he couldn't help but swear.

The people below were trembling with fear. One of the tall men was pale and sweat beaded on his forehead.

The old man looked at him. "Dong Sheng, as the owner behind the guesthouse, how are you going to explain this to me!"

The tall man was the old man's student. His back was already soaked with cold sweat. He knew how much the old man valued Qin Feng.

He quickly explained, "I have arrested everyone in the guesthouse. Based on the traces in the rooms, everyone else was killed instantly, including that fourth-tier warrior. I will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly, so please rest assured, Master."

The old man didn't speak, but his sharp gaze seemed capable of pinning a person to the ground, causing the tall man to tremble with fear.

They knew that Chen Wang was the reason for this, not because they had any particularly strong investigative abilities.

Instead, after Chen Wang committed the murder, he left behind in the room the message: "The murderer is Chen Wang!"

Five large characters.

Extremely arrogant!

These large characters were written on the wall by him tearing off one of Qin Feng's arms.
