Double Kill
"What... what is that...?"
At that moment, Chen Zhihao's worldview collapsed!
If he wasn't mistaken, that was a dragon?
"Dragon? How can there be dragons in this world?"
With the appearance of the Thunder Dragon, the surrounding air seemed to become violent.
Chen Zhihao trembled violently, cold sweat dripping down his forehead, boundless fear was consuming his last shred of sanity.
In front of Thunder Dragon, he felt as insignificant as an insect.
He knew that Xiao Fan had risen rapidly after entering the Cloud Sea, and his strength had increased very quickly.
But he still couldn't imagine how this scene before him came about.
"Please... please..." Chen Zhihao's knees buckled and he knelt on the ground.
At that moment, there was nothing he could do but beg.
Xiao Fan sneered.
You'll find out what this is soon enough.
Xiao Fan knew that Chen Zhihao had already called for help, but just in case, he didn't say anything more and pointed to Chen Zhihao kneeling on the ground.
"Go."
A resounding dragon's roar echoed over the bustling city, a city rife with crime.
At that moment, everyone near the house heard the sound and looked up.
What was that sound?
"I don't know, it sounds like the roar of Fierce Beast, but it's also a little different, as if it's more ancient and majestic..."
No sooner had the man finished speaking than a shimmering silver Thunder Dragon appeared in the sky above the city, then quickly swooped down.
"That's... that's a dragon?"
Everyone was stunned.
Chen Zhihao was a high-level player, so just in case, Xiao Fan unleashed all his offensive skills on him the instant the Thunder Dragon charged out.
Faced with the imposing Thunder Dragon, Chen Zhihao even forgot to dodge. He was swept up by the skill and crashed through the houses. Wherever it passed, the houses shattered and exploded. Xiao Fan was so frightened that he quickly Armor Transformation into armor and flew into the sky.
"Uncle Chen!"
As soon as Shen Beijun opened the door, he saw a bolt of lightning flying towards him.
He had just received Chen Zhihao's distress message and, upon learning that Xiao Fan had arrived in the City of Kings, immediately led his men over.
Saving Chen Zhihao was just a side effect; his more important goal was to kill Xiao Fan.
This person who humiliated him so much!
If Xiao Fan hadn't taken his first place in the Myriad Phenomena Tower, he would be a family hero and the future heir to the family headship!
He knew Xiao Fan was very strong now, so Shen Beijun brought a lot of people with him in order to kill him.
Before he even arrived, he heard a dragon's roar. Instead of retreating, Shen Beijun quickened his pace.
The moment he opened the door, Xiao Fan's skill was charging towards him...
Shen Beijun was only level 40, and he couldn't dodge the God King Rank Skill at all. The people around him were also shocked by the scene before them, and for a moment they forgot to help Shen Beijun dodge.
Thus, Xiao Fan's skill not only swept away Chen Zhihao, but also Shen Beijun and his group who had just entered. As the final part of the skill exploded, Chen Zhihao was instantly and irrevocably killed.
In addition, there was Shen Beijun, whose level was the lowest and who couldn't withstand the damage from the God King Rank Skill at all; his health was completely depleted.
However, the people he brought were high-level and well-equipped, and they weren't killed by the skills. They were just stunned by what they had just seen, and one of them stood there frozen, unable to react.
Xiao Fan frowned. He hadn't expected Shen Beijun and the others to suddenly rush in at the crucial moment, resulting in them being blasted to death by his skills.
However, Shen Beijun wasn't a good person either. He knew about the things he did at the Myriad Phenomena Tower, where he coerced the team members. A person is dead, but Shen Beijun was Shen Long's son after all, and his death would definitely provoke Shen Long's anger. He needed to be careful from now on.
The Thunder Dragon made such a big commotion that Xiao Fan could see from above that many people were already rushing towards them.
He glanced at his damage-dealing skills, which were still on cooldown, and could only sigh as he landed on the ground and chose to go invisible.
By the time Shen Beijun and his men realized what had happened, Xiao Fan had already vanished without a trace.
"Young Master! Young Master!"
One of them checked his health and immediately thought of Shen Beijun.
When he finally found Shen Beijun in the ruins, he discovered that the man was already dead.
"It's over!" A wave of immense fear washed over the man, and he collapsed to the ground, his face ashen.
Shen Beijun was Shen Long's own son, and he's dead just like that. Given Shen Long's volatile temper, what chance do those of them who came with him have?
"He's dead... Young Master is dead... What are we going to do?"
The other survivors also realized what was happening and panicked when they discovered that Shen Beijun was dead.
Chen Zhihao's body was also discovered, and the others were filled with hatred for the person who had summoned Shen Beijun.
One person even kicked Shen Beijun's corpse, saying, "It's all his fault! He must have called the young master here. If it weren't for him, the young master wouldn't have come, and he wouldn't be dead!"
"What do we do? If City Lord finds out about this, we're all going to die!" a man said with a mournful face.
The person who first found Shen Beijun's body suddenly remembered something.
"Murderer, have you seen who the murderer is?"
These people were suddenly summoned by Shen Beijun, who said he was going to kill someone. They followed him without even asking who it was. As soon as they entered the door, Shen Beijun was instantly killed, and none of them saw who made a move.
"No, I saw a blinding white light rush towards me as soon as I walked in."
One person recalled.
"Find him! The murderer must still be at the scene! If we find him, we can pin everything on him."
Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up, and they immediately stood up. However, due to the significant loss of blood and energy, their physical condition was extremely poor.
Fortunately, there was a Doctor in the team who managed to add a few drops of blood, and everyone eagerly began searching.
Xiao Fan stood aside quietly watching these people turn the scene upside down, but they still couldn't find anyone.
"It's over! The murderer got away, and we don't even know who did it. The City Lord will definitely not let us off if he finds out."
The men's faces were ashen.
At this moment, Shen Long was looking at his empty private vault, his eyes almost overflowing with anger.
Gems can be upgraded, and the effects of upgraded gems are doubled.
Shen Long had planned to upgrade these gems that evening, only to find his private vault completely empty.
"Who did this?! I want him dead!"
Shen Long's voice was like that of a hungry ghost from hell, each word chillingly cold.
He opened his friends list, intending to call his trusted confidants, but unexpectedly found that his son Shen Beijun's profile picture was offline.
What? His son is dead???
Shen Long found it utterly absurd. His son, Shen Beijun, was still around dinner time, and it was impossible for Shen Beijun to have left the city that night. This meant that Shen Beijun had died in the city.
In the City of Kings, who dares to kill Shen Long's son?
Shen Long would rather believe that Shen Beijun committed suicide than believe that anyone in the City of Kings would dare to harm his son.
"Who? Who killed my son!"
Shen Long sent a message directly through the City Chat Channel.
At that moment, everyone in the City of Kings saw the message sent by Shen Long.
The City Chat Channel, which had been filled with arguments and challenges, suddenly fell silent.
"What? City Lord's son has been murdered?"
Everyone was shocked and dared not utter another word.
Shen Long had three biological sons and one adopted son. His adopted son was killed by Magic Beast, and now another biological son has died? Who is it that died?
"Who the hell is so brave? Killing Shen Long's own son in the City of Kings."
Everyone held the murderer, whom they had never met, in the highest esteem.
Although the City of Kings is known as the City of Sin, no one dares to touch the Four Great Families here.
Now, not only has someone made a move, but the City Lord's son has too!
That's awesome!
"Who did this? Step forward now and I might only kill you. But if I find out, everyone connected to you will die!"
Shen Long's message appeared once again in the City Chat Channel, and everyone could feel the anger in his tone.
Still, no one spoke.
On Shen Long's side, the original core figures of the Shen Sect and the heads of the other three major families had all arrived.
Shen Beijun's death also shocked them.
They had to determine whether Shen Beijun's death was a revenge plot or an accident.
If they seek revenge, the younger generation of their family should be careful in the future.
At the head of the hall, Shen Long sat in a chair with his eyes lowered, his expression hidden from the others.
A moment later, a person was brought up.
Upon seeing Shen Long, he immediately knelt down.
"City Lord, the Third Young Master left the manor with a few people after dinner, and I didn't dare ask where he went."
Upon hearing this, Shen Long finally opened his eyes, which were bloodshot.
"Who did he take with him?" Shen Long asked in a deep voice.
The person thought carefully for a moment before reciting a few names.
Just as Shen Long was about to send someone to look for them, someone came in to report that the group of people were outside requesting an audience.
"Let them in."
"Yes."
The people Shen Beijun brought didn't find the murderer at the scene, and then they saw Shen Long's message in the City Chat Channel.
The group trembled with fear and only dared to return to the City Lord Mansion after mentally preparing themselves.
As soon as they entered, the group knelt on the ground and kowtowed frantically.
Shen Long swept his sharp gaze over the group, barely suppressing his anger as he spoke.
Tell us what you know.
Since none of the people came to him directly after his son Shen Beijun died, Shen Long was certain that they had no idea who the murderer was.
"City Lord, we really don't know anything."
That night, the Third Young Master suddenly summoned us urgently, saying he needed us to kill someone for him.
"We went with him without thinking. The Third Young Master was walking very fast on the way, and we didn't have time to ask him anything."
"But when we got there, as soon as we opened the door, something rushed towards us, and before we could react, our young master was instantly killed!"
No sooner had the man finished speaking than a table flew towards them, the force of which left them dizzy and disoriented, shattering the table into pieces.
"Do you think I'm a fool?" Shen Long's icy voice came from above.
"City Lord, you are right. We are telling the truth. We really didn't see what killed the Third Young Master. We were thrown into the air as soon as we went in, and by the time we realized what was happening, we had searched everywhere, but we couldn't find anyone."
The group wept and kowtowed.
One of them seemed to remember something and quickly spoke up.
"City Lord, we've investigated. The place the young master took us to is where a squad leader named Chen Zhihao keeps his mistress. He's the one who lured the Third Young Master there."
"Chen Zhihao?" Shen Long frowned. He had just seen Chen Zhihao that afternoon and still remembered him.
This person is very close to Shen Beijun's son, and if he were to ask, Shen Beijun would definitely go.
"Where is Chen Zhihao? Where is he?" Shen Long asked.
"Reporting to the City Lord, he... he's dead too."
"Dead? Are you kidding me?" Shen Long roared in fury, the oppressive aura of a level 100 player making the kneeling group tremble.
"City Lord, you are wise. How could we dare to deceive you? We simply believe that Chen Zhihao must have offended someone he shouldn't have. The other party sought revenge, and Chen Zhihao asked the Third Young Master for help, which led to the Third Young Master being killed."
"That person is extremely powerful, most likely a level 99 or even level 100 expert. His skill level is very high; we were only hit once by his skill, and our health was almost depleted. The Third Young Master, being a lower level, was instantly killed by him..."
Bang--
A chair flew towards the player who was speaking, hitting him squarely.
"Level 100 expert? Level 99 expert? Why don't you just say I killed Jun'er myself?"
Shen Long listened attentively at first, but later he felt more and more that something was wrong.
So far, there are only two level 100 powerhouses in this game: him and Jian Qingfeng. Although he doesn't like Jian Qingfeng, Shen Long absolutely believes that Jian Qingfeng wouldn't kill someone he has no grudge against.
Besides, how could Jian Qingfeng possibly have time to come to the City of Kings right now?
Not to mention level 99 players; aside from the Four Great Families, almost all level 99 players in City of Kings have disappeared. How could they possibly be killing anyone?
These people are definitely saying this on purpose to shirk responsibility.
The kneeling people were on the verge of tears.
They weren't lying. Although they didn't see the killer, a single skill that could reduce them all to near-death must have belonged to a level 100 player.
"Since you know nothing, then go die."
Shen Long waved to his trusted confidant, signaling him to take these people away.
"City Lord! City Lord, we really didn't lie, we're telling the truth."
The men kneeling on the ground kowtowed frantically, but Shen Long didn't even glance at them.
Xiao Fan, who had been watching the show from the sidelines, stroked his chin.
He originally thought that after Chen Zhihao released his information, news of his appearance in the City of Kings to seek revenge would spread quickly.
But to his utter surprise, Shen Beijun hadn't leaked his information to anyone else.
Now, with Shen Beijun's death, news of his reappearance has been concealed.
"Etc."
At the critical moment, the Yu Family Head suddenly stepped forward.
Shen Long squinted at him.
"Old Yu, what are your thoughts?"
The Yu Family Head shook his head.
"It's not exactly insightful, but I think these people genuinely don't know who the murderer is, so killing them would be pointless."
Shen Long sneered. It's easy for you to talk when you're not the one suffering. So it wasn't his son who died.
Doesn't he know these people are innocent? So what? He just wants to vent his anger!
The Yu Family Head seemed to be looking at what Shen Long was thinking, and then spoke.
"Actually, it's not difficult to find out who the murderer is. The murderer is clearly seeking revenge on Chen Zhihao. Once we know who he has offended, the pool of suspects narrows down considerably."
Shen Long thought about it and realized that Yu Family Head said made sense.
"But Chen Zhihao is dead, how would we know who he offended?"
Just as Shen Long finished speaking, another subordinate came to report that Chen Zhihao's wife was requesting an audience.
