<h4>Chapter 171: Chapter 0171: Splitting the Bullet</h4><h4></h4>
"Are you done talking?"
However, facing Old Wolf’s statement, Chu Ge waspletely unmoved and simply responded indifferently.
"You..." Old Wolf’s expression changed, and he gritted his teeth: "If you seek death, don’t me me!"
"Do you know?"
As he watched hundreds of crossbow arrows being raised and aimed at him, Chu Ge made no attempt to dodge. Instead, he slowly raised the de in one hand, pointing the tip directly at Old Wolf: "As long as the swing of the de is fast enough, even bullets can be split!"
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Old Wolf’s pupils contracted, and his fingers trembled slightly.
Still, he swung down his right arm: "Turn him into a sieve!"
How could such a thing exist in this world? This kid is just bluffing.
"Dang—"
A light ng sounded, and Old Wolf’s face twitched as a crossbow arrow was split and flew away.
And what happened next, not just Old Wolf, but everyone present widened their eyes in shock, as if they had seen a ghost!
The Tang de, brandished in Chu Ge’s hand, turned into a swarm of dense phantoms. The corridor, shrouded in shadows from arrows, saw all the crossbow arrows being deflected two meters in front of Chu Ge!
Some arrows even ricocheted back, hitting several unlucky individuals.
A volley of fire, the de danced! Chu Ge, facing the barrage of crossbow arrows, crossed the hundred meters long corridor,ing directly in front of Old Wolf.
"Now, do you believe it?"
The Tang de was held horizontally, the cold touch on his neck bringing Old Wolf back to his senses. He looked at Chu Ge and suddenly let out a miserableugh: "I had heard rumors about you martial artists before, and I even encountered one. But that time, just a few dozen crossbows turned him into a sieve, so I thought, martial artists are nothing special."
Chu Ge looked at him, silent.
"Until now, I finally understand, there really are people with superhuman abilities in this world!"
"So?" Chu Ge smiled.
"So..." Old Wolf suddenly raised his head and sneered at Chu Ge: "It’s time for you to die!"
He had said so much, just to buy time. Unknown when, Old Wolf’s right hand now held a ck pistol, aimed directly at Chu Ge.
"Goodbye!"
"Bang—"
"Dang—"
The dull sound of gunfire and the clear sound of metal striking metal rang out almost at the same moment, Old Wolf, stunned, turned his head to look at the orange bullet embedded in the wall.
"Didn’t I just tell you?" Chu Ge smiled, a small nick appeared on the edge of the Tang de: "As long as the swing of the de is fast enough, even bullets can be split!"
"You..."
However, this time, Old Wolf had no more chance to speak. With a sh of the de, arge head flew off, blood spurting out like a fountain.
After a few seconds, the headless body finally fell backward with a thud.
Utter silence!
Those big men in ck, with crossbows in hand, yet not a single one dared to shoot an arrow at Chu Ge.
What a joke, even bullets could be chopped down; who would want to hurry to reincarnation by acting against him?
Chu Ge looked back once, without uttering a word, yet the hundreds of ck-d big men behind him all retreated a great distance in unison.
"Hehe... Hahahaha!"
He suddenly burst intoughter, dragging the Tang de as he slowly walked toward the top floor.
As Chu Ge’s figure disappeared around the corner of the staircase, hundreds of men on the twelfth floor took a long sigh of relief—the Grim Reaper had finally left!
Suddenly, someone whispered, "Isn’t the thirteenth floor just above? Isn’t Snake alone up there?"
No one spoke; after a long while, a sarcastic voice responded, "Humph, then do you dare go up and save Snake?"
This time the entire scene truly quieted down.
......
The decoration of the thirteenth floor in thepany was opulent, with carpets extending to the office at the end of the hall, nked by numerous valuable nts.
The office’s door wasn’t locked; Chu Ge gently pushed it open, it swung inward; Poison Snake sat behind the office desk, his face calm, as if he had anticipated this oue.
"You don’t look surprised at all."
Watching Chu Ge draw nearer, Poison Snake gave a bitter smile, "Honestly, I thought you were a goner. Until a few minutes ago, they showed me a video."
"They?" Chu Ge raised an eyebrow.
"I suppose you’ve already guessed it." Poison Snake sighed and turned theptop around, "Those people, they im to be from the Ghost Poison Sect, a sect of Ancient Martial handed down from ancient times."
The video shown was that of Chu Ge in front of the mansion, single-handedly battling five postnatal experts from the Ghost Poison Sect. Although the footage was blurry, it still clearly conveyed his unstoppable might at that moment.
"When you, alone, took ten odd minutes to fight your way to the tenth floor, I guessed that something grim was about to ur, so I called them. But what came was a video that just plunged me into despair."
Poison Snake sighed deeply, as if trying to expel all the air from his lungs, "I don’t understand, for beings far beyond humans like you, power, money, women, they seem easily attainable. Why stillpete with us humans?"
Chu Ge paused for a few seconds, then said softly, "Actually, this is my dispute with the Ghost Poison Sect. I’m nning to leave Shanghai after some time, hence I want to cleanse all the influences here, eliminate all the Ghost Poison Sect people. If this struggle was just about you wanting to rece Huo Tianqian, and your attitude towards me remained unchanged, I wouldn’t have intervened. But, you shouldn’t have sought the Ghost Poison Sect as your backup."
Hearing Chu Ge’s words, Poison Snake fell silent.
After a long while, he almost tremblingly lit a cigarette for himself, but before he took a few drags, he burst into hystericalughter, even dropping the cigarette to the floor.
"Hahahaha...Hahahaha, this is just too funny...Hahahaha..."
Poison Snake evenughed until tears came out; after a long time, he finally subdued hisughter and looked at Chu Ge, "I guessed earlier those people would not be kind-hearted, so I never really trusted them. Instead, I nned to use them as a stepping stone to connect with one of the Four Great Families of Modu, the Duan Family. I didn’t expect... Hahaha... I really didn’t expect!"
Seeminglyughing so hard he couldn’t catch his breath, Poison Snake gasped heavily, "I used them as stepping stones, but in their eyes, I was just a piece to be discarded, from beginning to end, it has always been your dispute with the Ghost Poison Sect. Struggle for power? Just a joke. The role I yed in this, I guess, was just a clown?"
Chu Ge looked at him, remained silent, and then quietly turned away.
"Bang—"
A muffled sound came from behind.
