Chapter 1564: Rage

Tears flickered in Hu Xi'er's eyes; she had truly been terrified just moments ago.

The British turned their heads in unison to look at the owner of that voice, and were instantly stunned.

They seemed to feel immense pressure; the air in the entire alley seemed to become stifling because of this man's rage.

The person who had arrived was none other than Mo Cheng.

Mo Cheng looked at Hu Xi'er's helpless state, his gaze chilling.

He swept his eyes over everyone present, and the originally fierce British could not help but turn their heads away, not daring to look again.

Over a dozen burly British men were actually intimidated by a single Longyan.

Geleidier frowned slightly and shouted coldly, "Why are you lot afraid of just one man?"

The crowd ignored him; as for why they feared Mo Cheng, it was because Mo Cheng was also holding a gun in his hand—if Geleidier had seen it, he wouldn't have thought that way.

Mo Cheng raised his gun and said coldly, "Let her go."

The crowd parted to make a path; before they were certain there were Bullet in that gun, none of them dared to be the first to stick their neck out.

Hu Xi'er hurried over.

Seeing that Hu Xi'er was unharmed, Mo Cheng felt his spirit relax.

Regarding this, no one dared to stop her.

Seeing his prey about to escape, Geleidier snorted coldly, cursed them as a bunch of trash under his breath, and threw a pebble from the shadows.

This pebble accurately struck Mo Cheng's hand; he dropped the gun in his hand in pain, and at this moment, Geleidier leaped down from the building beside the alley.

He landed between Hu Xi'er and Mo Cheng.

He kicked Mo Cheng's gun away.

Looking at the newcomer's face, Hu Xi'er instantly thought of that annoying fellow from the tavern.

Geleidier raised the brim of his hat and smiled, "Miss, we meet again."

"I warned you before to be careful of those British you've angered."

Hu Xi'er glared at him and tried to shove him away, but she was pulled into the fellow's embrace.

Mo Cheng, behind him, saw Hu Xi'er fall into the arms of a strange man and was filled with sudden rage.

"Let her go!" Mo Cheng raised his fist and threw a punch, but was kicked away by Geleidier.

Seeing this scene, Hu Xi'er struggled repeatedly, but Geleidier's hands were like thick iron chains, firmly restraining Hu Xi'er.

Mo Cheng's eyes were practically spitting fire.

He instantly flipped himself up, wanting to grab the gun, but was stepped on the hand by Geleidier.

Just then, the British Soldiers attracted by the sound of the gunshot rushed over.

Along with them was Newton.

Geleidier snorted coldly, knowing there was no chance tonight, so he had to drop the Hu Xi'er he had already captured and retreated repeatedly.

After Hu Xi'er was cast aside, Mo Cheng first caught Hu Xi'er.

He took the gun from Hu Xi'er's hand.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

The Revolver's magazine was emptied, yet Mo Cheng kept pulling the trigger; Xi'er looked at Mo Cheng's profile, still shaken.

She had never seen Mo Cheng as angry as he was tonight.

Geleidier fled in a panic, secretly astonished at how the gun in his hand could fire five shots in a row!

Of the five Bullet, one happened to strike Gerenaer's lower leg; he let out a cry of pain, glared at Mo Cheng with venom, and memorized his face.

After the British Soldiers arrived, they only opened fire after seeing that Geleidier had already disappeared.

Newton looked at his close friend and asked anxiously while holding Hu Xi'er, "How is it? Are you alright?"

Hu Xi'er, her face flushed, leaned against Mo Cheng and said, "I'm fine."

Mo Cheng slammed the Revolver down, looked at Newton, and said coldly, "Someone laid a hand on Xi'er, do you understand, Newton!"

Newton did not understand, but he looked at Mo Cheng's current

appearance, which looked exactly like his own when he couldn't solve a difficult problem.

Whenever he encountered this situation, Newton always wanted to eliminate the person who created the problem!

"I will help you deal with him; I still have a little status in Britain," Newton said sincerely.

Mo Cheng glanced at these British who had laid hands on Hu Xi'er.

The British Soldiers immediately arrested them, and these British Soldiers reported to Newton: "We will handle these people according to the law; for the crime of molestation, we will detain them for fifteen days."

Fifteen days—these British breathed a sigh of relief.

Although being in a cell was uncomfortable, fifteen days wasn't long; they could just endure it and it would pass.

Newton snorted coldly: "No, they obstructed my research and affected the safety of our Britain; this involves our national security, these people must be sentenced to at least life imprisonment!"

The British nearly vomited blood upon hearing this.

This was too ruthless.

The British Soldiers frowned; if it weren't for their superiors telling them to keep a close eye on this man named Newton, they wouldn't have bothered.

"Mr. Newton, I hope you will abide by the law; we will make a fair judgment."

Newton ignored him and flipped out a badge.

The soldier looked at the gleaming gold badge with no change in expression, but after flipping it over to the back, his face suddenly changed drastically.

"You are..." The soldier immediately cut off his own voice.

He hadn't expected this seemingly silly-looking Newton to actually be such a big shot.

Newton glanced at him and said calmly, "You understand what I mean, right? Does this count as endangering national security?"

The soldier thought for a moment; if it meant obstructing such a big shot, it certainly counted as endangering national security.

The soldier nodded: "It counts."

"Then shouldn't you do as I said?"

"Yes."

The soldier gave an affirmative answer, and only then did Newton nod in satisfaction, putting the badge back into his pocket.

Seeing the expression in Mo Cheng's eyes soften slightly, Newton finally felt at ease.

He left with Mo Cheng and Hu Xi'er without looking back.

Those British did not know what Newton and the soldier had talked about; in their hearts, they were still thinking that once they got out of prison, they would definitely make these guys pay.

Especially that woman.

The British Soldiers took these troublemaking British to the prison and said indifferently: "Disturbing national security, life imprisonment!"

Hearing the judge's unquestionable voice, the crowd was stunned; wasn't it supposed to be fifteen days?

How could it be life imprisonment!

Immediately after, sounds of painful wailing came from within the prison.

At this time, Hu Xi'er nestled in Mo Cheng's arms as they returned to Newton's home.

Hu Xi'er's face was flushed; only then did Mo Cheng notice the smell of alcohol on her, and with a frown, he still placed Hu Xi'er on the bed.

Hu Xi'er looked sweet and asked Mo Cheng: "How could you bear to come out and find me?"

"Did you get hurt anywhere?" Mo Cheng asked in return.

"No."

After Mo Cheng checked her over, he breathed a sigh of relief that Hu Xi'er was not injured.

Mo Cheng said calmly: "I heard gunfire in the Laboratory, and it was the unique gunfire of our Dragon Flame, and then I discovered you were gone."

Hearing this answer, a smile appeared on Hu Xi'er's face, her eyes sparkling with happiness, but soon Hu Xi'er's face darkened, and she said resentfully.

"Mo Cheng, you aren't staying with me, where are you going?"

Mo Cheng did not look back and said coldly: "To kill."
