Chapter 764

~12 min read 2,370 words

If an ordinary person encountered this kind of thing, they would definitely take conventional means to seek justice. But Haidong was different; he was a killer. He knew that with the other party's financial resources and social status, normal means couldn't get justice for his son. He didn't care at all about the other party's compensation or letting the other party go to jail.

Haidong's revenge began. He only spent one day to fully investigate the ins and outs of the matter, but the opponent's reaction was faster. What was even stranger was that the police didn't pay much attention to this kind of homicide case, which was already very abnormal.

Zhang Xutian's father was a real estate tycoon in this city named Zhang Da. In the real estate business, one would come into contact with all kinds of people. Precisely because of this, after he learned of Haidong's identity through special channels, he immediately understood that this matter could not be resolved through compensation or legal channels.

As the saying goes, one must be ruthless. If the small one is dead, killing the old one will make everything clean. Since the other party is a killer, that's even better. It's highly likely that no one will pursue the other party's death. Zhang Da contacted some "killers" through a friend's introduction.

After meeting, Zhang Da discovered that these "killers" were just a bunch of mud-legged people. Some had never even touched a gun and only relied on their own courage to kill.

Discovering this, Zhang Da didn't give up. It was true that the other party was a professional killer, but he had money, and money can make the devil push the millstone. He couldn't find professional killers, but finding more amateur ones was absolutely no problem. Moreover, they were the defensive side, just waiting for the other party to come and take revenge.

Zhang Da was also ruthless enough, hiring a full 80-plus amateur killers. Although these people's methods were not good, they had guts. Moreover, Zhang Da had also obtained some crudely made pistols. After these amateur killers had guns, their combat effectiveness clearly improved.

The two sides clashed four days later. The result was that Haidong killed nearly 40 amateur killers and was hit by three stray bullets.

Generally speaking, this matter no longer needed to be evaluated by right or wrong. Neither side was a good person. Since neither was a good person, then solve it with the most primitive method. The result was Haidong's defeat.

A villa manor on the edge of this city; this was Zhang Da's home, luxurious to the point of being unbelievable.

At this time, a party was being held inside the villa. The protagonist of the party was a middle-aged man who was not tall and very sturdy.

The middle-aged man's attire was very particular, yet his words and actions revealed a faint bandit air. He was Zhang Da, who started by forced demolition and later entered the real estate industry.

"Everyone, great kindness needs no thanks."

Zhang Da raised a glass of wine. He didn't let these amateur killers leave immediately; he was afraid Haidong wasn't dead yet.

Others at the table raised their glasses somewhat perfunctorily. They were all somewhat absent-minded. After all, they had just escaped death. Today, they witnessed the difference between amateur killers and professional killers. If it weren't for the few lucky shots in the chaotic gunfire, they would all be dead. The other party was elusive, killing them like killing chickens and dogs.

At this time, Zhang Da also had no bottom in his heart. This time, more than forty people died. Although these people were either fugitives or loners, and the bodies had already been disposed of, the previous burst of gunfire was not easy to gloss over. Fortunately, this was not in the city area; otherwise, there wouldn't even be room to gloss over it.

Actually, Zhang Da was overthinking. The police had no time to deal with them now; there were more troublesome things in the city, and all the police were busy and overwhelmed.

"Boss Zhang is too polite. I don't know about the subsequent remuneration..."

These amateur killers had no heart to drink; they just wanted to take the money and leave now.

Creak~

The sound of urgent braking came from outside the manor. Zhang Da's heart turned cold, subconsciously thinking that the police had arrived.

A man in a black suit pushed open the main entrance of the villa. Seeing the attire of the person who arrived, Zhang Da breathed a sigh of relief.

"And this is?"

Zhang Da stood up and went to greet the man in the suit. As soon as the two approached, Zhang Da suddenly felt his face burning with pain.

Slap! After a loud slap, one could hear a needle drop in the room.

When had Zhang Da ever suffered such an insult? The veins on his face bulged, and his whole body trembled. Although angry, he subconsciously felt that something was wrong.

"You provoke anyone you see. Where did you get the guts, a real estate developer? I was already busy and overwhelmed, and now another even more terrifying guy has come."

"You..."

Zhang Da swallowed the words that reached his lips. He saw soldiers wearing black combat uniforms rushing into the room. These soldiers had advanced weapons that could only be seen in movies.

"Captain, all relevant personnel have been controlled. Please instruct."

An officer with the rank of second lieutenant gave a standard military salute to the man in the suit.

"Very good."

The man in the suit sighed. These people in the villa were all bargaining chips. When negotiating with someone in a while, there would be room for maneuver.

"Officer, I and..."

Zhang Da was just about to pull connections when the man in the suit raised his hand and gave another big slap.

"Don't tell me who you know. Just wait here honestly."

Just at this moment, the phone in Zhang Da's pocket rang. The man in the suit took out the phone, answered it, and hung up after a few words.

Zhang Da's eyes revealed a look of expectation; it was just his backup plan.

"It's enough for you to die yourself; don't implicate others."

The phone slipped from the man in the suit's hand and was crushed to pieces by his foot. The ground even sank slightly. The officer on the side couldn't help but look sideways. He didn't know much, only that the department where the man in the suit worked had great power.

That's right, the man in the suit was a Qiyuezhe. He was a member of the Scavengers. The main business of the Scavengers was to suppress or appease Qiyuezhe in the real world.

Most dishonest Qiyuezhe were below the third tier. Once they reached the third tier or above, except for special circumstances, most Qiyuezhe would not cause trouble in the real world.

If it were a Qiyuezhe above the third tier, the Scavengers actually had no way. High-tier Qiyuezhe didn't care about the treatment of the Scavengers at all and were unwilling to be bound by others.

Even so, the state apparatus was not just for show. There were very few high-level Qiyuezhe who worked in the state apparatus. They were all very cautious and would not easily take action in the real world. They were the final response measure. If they took action, the real world would be in chaos. By that time, Reincarnation Paradise would show its ferocious side. The real world was very special to Reincarnation Paradise.

Around the villa, men in suits stood ready. Su Xiao had helped them solve a second-tier Qiyuezhe, but today, Su Xiao was not on their side.

In the agonizing wait, night fell, and the streetlights around the villa lit up. One person and one dog stood under a streetlight.

"Is this the place?"

Su Xiao threw down the information in his hand, which contained the information and photos of Zhang Da and Zhang Xutian. In the previous ten-plus hours, he had already understood the whole matter.

Right and wrong are things children care about, and besides, there is no right or wrong in this matter. At the end of the development, it was just comparing whose fist was harder.

Haidong's fist wasn't hard enough, but his friend Su Xiao had a pair of "titanium alloy fists."

A dark and windy night for killing; tonight, Zhang Da and Zhang Xutian, father and son, must both die. Either they die, or Su Xiao dies. There was no room for choice.

After approaching the villa, Su Xiao discovered the Scavengers' people. These people's black suits were too iconic.

"Friend over there, have been waiting for you for a long time."

A man in a suit came forward. He was the one who slapped Zhang Da twice. Su Xiao didn't hide his aura, so it was normal for him to be discovered.

"Scavengers appear, can I assume you are standing on Zhang Da's side?"

"Of course not. We are standing on your side. After all, we have been through life and death in the same place. We have understood Haidong's matter. I don't want to say comforting bullshit; I can only say that perhaps that is fate."

The man in the suit handed over two photos.

"Your friend has been buried. It's in the east of the city; the scenery there is quite good."

Su Xiao took the photos. The Scavengers' attitude surprised him. Actually, the Scavengers were also forced by helplessness; the situation in the neighboring city was even harder to clean up than here.

The man in the suit tentatively asked: "Must the Zhang father and son die?"

"Yes, they die, or I die."

Receiving this answer, the man in the suit gave a bitter smile.

"A killer friend, is it worth it? These people won't live; they will get the punishment they deserve."

"A friend is a friend; there's nothing worth it or not."

Haidong had once helped Su Xiao kill people, and today it was Su Xiao helping him eliminate his enemies.

"That's fine too. The Zhang father and son are not good birds, causing a bunch of trouble. As for those amateur killers, forget it, do as you please. There is only one point: don't cause a big commotion, such as using fully automatic firearms or explosives, otherwise, it will be hard for both of us to end this."

Su Xiao walked past the man in the suit and headed straight for the villa. At this time, all the Scavengers' personnel inside the villa had already withdrawn.

Su Xiao pushed the door and walked into the villa. A group of amateur killers in various clothes were holding table legs or clothes drying poles, standing ready. Their weapons had already been confiscated. Now, they interpreted what it meant to be shrimp soldiers and crab generals.

The Zhang father and son's complexions were ashen, but seeing that only Su Xiao was there, the father and son breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. They had already guessed the general situation.

"Kill him, I'll give you ten times the reward!"

Those amateur killers didn't move; they didn't know what the situation was.

"What are you stunned for? Today, either he dies, or we die."

Zhang Da was holding a baseball bat. He was a thug when he was young and had some combat power.

Su Xiao walked straight toward the people in the room and picked up a table knife from the dining table. Seeing this action, those amateur killers began to reveal fierce glares.

10 seconds later, there were no other living people in the living room except Su Xiao.

Ten days later, east of the city, the sun was in the sky, and a breeze was blowing.

In front of two graves, one big and one small, sat a man.

"Dongzi, came to see you again, brought roasted chicken."

Su Xiao lit a cigarette and placed it in front of Haidong's tombstone.

"Perhaps you are right, a killer's life is not life at all; it's just surviving. Fortunately, I found an interesting place where I can find fun. If I fought for revenge in the past, I later discovered that my interest is fighting. Fighting with people is endless fun. If I can stand at the highest point, perhaps I can see different scenery and no longer be driven by some existence."

Su Xiao seems powerful now, but in reality, he is driven by Reincarnation Paradise. As for thoughts like destroying Reincarnation Paradise, he hasn't had them yet. Being driven or coerced, Reincarnation Paradise is helping him become stronger, just that the means to become stronger are extreme.

To have freedom in the true sense, one must stand at that peak. As strength becomes stronger, the scenery seen becomes wider, and more things can be done. Rather than living a mediocre life, Su Xiao is more willing to enjoy the scenery while becoming stronger. As for spiritual sustenance, people with strong enough minds don't need to rely on that kind of thing at all.

A stronger inner heart will be nurtured in a powerful body, a powerful inner heart that remains unchanged even if Mount Tai collapses before one's eyes. Su Xiao happens to have both, so he can survive in the cruel Reincarnation Paradise until now.

Thinking this through, Su Xiao discovered that the whole world was different. The gloom in his heart gradually dissipated. His deathly aura changed, becoming purer, sharper, fiercer, and more aggressive. This is actually what a person who practices the blade needs most. He hadn't noticed this point before, but now, he noticed it.

"Haidong, thank you, you made me understand certain things."
