Chapter 246: Chapter 243: Today, Whoever Comes Will Die

’Looks like these people don’t know I led them here on purpose.’

’They all think they can find Song Yiguo just by following me, don’t they?’

’I feel a little bad for Vice General Du!’

’But someone has to play the part of the kidnapper!’

Chen Xing left the several hundred people at the hotel, then snuck away to call Song Yiguo and tell him to bring his men over at once.

Luckily, they weren’t too far away. He could get there in a little over ten minutes.

’Vice General Du will just have to take a hit, get a little injured, and put on a show of protecting Yan Junxi to the death. That way, he can score some major points with Song Yiguo.’

’That way, if Song Yiguo ever turns on him in the future, he won’t just cast Vice General Du aside.’

’It’s just... with several hundred people, Vice General Du is in for a world of hurt.’

Chen Xing couldn’t just stand by, either.

At the very least, she had to ensure the safety of Vice General Du and Yan Junxi.

So, she had Meng Hu attack from below, while she found a rope and climbed directly up through a window.

The hotel was over ten stories tall.

Yan Junxi had found it tiring, so he had simply stayed on the fifth floor.

By the time Chen Xing reached the fifth floor, Vice General Du was already fighting.

Yan Junxi seemed rather astonished to see Vice General Du.

The moment he saw Chen Xing appear, he wiped all expression from his face, adopted a look of weak helplessness, and cowered in the corner.

’What an actor!’

Even Chen Xing had to admire his acting skills.

They held out for less than ten minutes before Song Yiguo arrived with his men.

’That speed...’

Together with Meng Hu, he quickly dealt with the people below before finding his way to the fifth floor.

Seeing that Yan Junxi was safe and sound, the weight on Song Yiguo’s heart finally lifted.

He stepped forward and pulled Yan Junxi into an embrace, his eyes instantly softening. "I’m sorry. I let you suffer."

Yan Junxi’s eyes reddened as well, and he hugged Song Yiguo back, resting his head on his shoulder.

For some reason, Chen Xing felt that in that moment, Yan Junxi’s feelings for Song Yiguo were completely genuine.

Vice General Du was covered in wounds. If not for his high Superpower Level, he would have been dead long ago. "Young Master Song, we need to leave here as soon as possible!"

Even if Song Yiguo couldn’t see the injuries he’d sustained for Yan Junxi’s sake, he still had to prioritize Song Yiguo’s safety.

After all, he was part of the Song Family Army.

Song Yiguo’s arms around Yan Junxi relaxed slightly, and he started to turn his head toward Vice General Du.

Just then, he felt a sharp pain in his stomach.

His handsome expression froze instantly, the tenderness in his eyes slowly fading.

It all happened so suddenly that even Chen Xing couldn’t react in time.

"I’m sorry..." Yan Junxi’s voice was so low that only Song Yiguo could hear him.

Then he yanked the knife free and tried to stab again with all his might.

"Young Master Song..." Vice General Du and the Superpower Users cried out in unison.

But that second blow never struck Song Yiguo. Instead, the knife turned back and plunged into Yan Junxi’s own chest.

Song Yiguo couldn’t feel his own pain as he held onto Yan Junxi, whose body was slowly sliding to the floor.

He didn’t understand...

Why had Yan Junxi stabbed him?

And why had he then stabbed his own chest?

"Why?" he asked, holding Yan Junxi, his eyes filled with an unprecedented mix of confusion and conflict.

The corners of Yan Junxi’s mouth split into a brilliant smile. "Because..."

He had long since felt that something was wrong with him.

Strange memories would surface from time to time, compelling him to kill Song Yiguo no matter the cost, and it terrified him.

He constantly reminded himself that he could absolutely not do anything to harm Song Yiguo.

Running away from the hotel this time had been part of the plan. Someone had ordered him to do it.

He knew that if he stayed by Song Yiguo’s side, he might end up harming him.

That was why he had knocked out Vice General Du and fled the hotel according to the plan.

In the dilapidated hotel, even when he was lucid and no one was watching, he never considered going back to Song Yiguo.

Just now, after embracing Song Yiguo, the feeling that controlled him had been especially strong. That was why he had drawn the knife.

But in the instant he brought the knife down, he had restrained himself again, which was why it hadn’t struck a vital point.

If he wanted Song Yiguo to be truly safe, then he had no choice but to die!

Song Yiguo’s eyes were bloodshot as he held the dying Yan Junxi, utterly unable to speak a single word.

After a long moment, Vice General Du stepped forward to help Song Yiguo. "Young Master Song, we can’t linger here!"

Song Yiguo held Yan Junxi tightly.

"Someone’s coming!" Chen Xing, standing by the window, could already see a contingent approaching on a distant street.

Downstairs, Song Yiguo’s Superpower Group had already fanned out, preparing to enter combat at any moment.

Vice General Du forcefully pulled Song Yiguo up. "We have to leave here first!" Then, he gave a pointed look.

Xiao Long stepped forward and lifted Yan Junxi’s breathless body into the air.

Wen Yan then coordinated, placing Yan Junxi’s body into a vortex before they immediately retreated from the room.

A murderous light exploded in Song Yiguo’s eyes. He looked coldly at Vice General Du and said, "Kill them."

’Anyone who comes today dies!’

Chen Xing was speechless. ’Can I stay out of this?’

Vice General Du immediately began to deploy his forces.

Once his orders were given, he took the lead and escorted Song Yiguo downstairs.

No matter what, Song Yiguo’s safety was the top priority.

Chen Xing didn’t hurry down.

’If I want to minimize the deaths and injuries today, I have to stop the enemy from advancing.’

’Otherwise, I’ll become a target for most of the major factions in the future.’

Taking advantage of being left alone in the room, Chen Xing pulled several grenades from her storage space and threw them toward the advancing troops in the distance.

Instantly, the massive contingent was thrown into chaos.

Seeing this, Vice General Du realized there was no longer a need to fight and immediately drove away with Song Yiguo.

The Superpower Users also retreated quickly, following Song Yiguo.

By the time Song Yiguo reached the airport, his plane was engulfed in a sea of fire.

Vice General Du ordered the driver to turn the car around while he called the Capital City to have a plane immediately dispatched to a nearby airport.

As they sped away from the airport, Chen Xing suggested, "Let’s head south!"

"To kill Song Yiguo, they’ve surely concentrated all their main forces on the roads leading north."

"Even if there’s an ambush to the south, their numbers will be small."

Vice General Du had the driver change course for the south.

This time, however, the enemy was fully prepared.

The southern roads weren’t heavily guarded, but not long after they broke through one group of Superpower Users, they ran into a zombie horde.

Luckily, there were only a handful of Advanced Zombies in the horde.

Chen Xing, Vice General Du, and Meng Hu were responsible for hunting the Advanced Zombies, while the Superpower Team slaughtered the Intermediate Zombies to clear a path.

No matter how large the horde was, it couldn’t stand up to the sheer number of Song Yiguo’s Superpower Users.

When they reached the center of the horde, Chen Xing had Song Yiguo and Vice General Du take half of the Superpower Users, break off to the side, and circle back toward the Capital City.

The other Superpower Team would head in the opposite direction.

Meanwhile, she and Meng Hu would continue south.

That way, the enemy’s forces would be quickly scattered. It wouldn’t be easy for them to find Song Yiguo, and even if they did, they might not have enough firepower to be a threat.
