My Wife is Actually a top-tier Soldier King?!
Chapter 903 - 903 895 Courting Death

903: Chapter 895: Courting Death?

Breathtaking Maneuvers!

903: Chapter 895: Courting Death?

Breathtaking Maneuvers!

“Speak of the devil, and he shall appear!”

Kong Heng’s harsh words truly took everyone by surprise.

Wu Jie was utterly shocked.

For crying out loud!

Was the man genuinely crazy or just pretending to be?

To blurt out such absurdity, he wasn’t just sick in the head—he had lost his mind completely.

Indeed!

The relatives and friends of Kong Heng who had accompanied him to the ICU, each and every one of them, after their initial shock, hurriedly gathered around excitedly.

Several people dragged and pulled at him, cursing while trying to get Kong Heng away.

“You’re mad!

You damn fool, you’ve completely lost it!!”

“You little bastard, what the hell are you blabbing about?

Are you asking to die?”

“What does the elder’s safety have to do with President Tang?

Have you gone stupid?”

“Get out of here!

Go home quickly!”

“You scum, are you trying to ruin the whole family?”

“Why the hell are you still here?

Go!

Get moving!”

…

Several people knew only to drag, to persuade, and to scold Kong Heng.

Not a single one of them, however, offered an apology or explanation to Wu Jie on Kong Heng’s behalf.

It seemed that subconsciously, they didn’t think Kong Heng was entirely wrong.

They were merely intimidated by Wu Jie’s current power and status, desperately wanting to whisk Kong Heng away.

Witnessing this scene, Wu Jie couldn’t help but let out a cold laugh.

Birds of a feather flock together.

The Kong family of Liuli City, driven by profit and valuing benefits above all—those who were caught were steeped in sin, their crimes heinous.

But did that make the uncaptured ones good people?

Impossible!

It was just that there was no solid evidence yet to prove their guilt, temporarily allowing them to roam free.

At this moment, Wu Jie understood why Zheng was so eager to get the Skynet System.

Integrated information networking, big data analytics.

For a large family like the Kong family of Liuli City, for such a vast interest group.

Over the years, the flow of funds and dirty deals must be numerous.

A large-scale data analysis and processing would definitely find some traces, uncover the huge amounts of embezzled money hidden under others’ names.

Of course.

Seeing this family, listening to their words…

Especially the seemingly senseless, idiotic threats Kong Heng just made.

Why?

In the eyes of these wicked people, they were the same as Kong Heng.

There’s no law, no morality to speak of.

If their creed is violated, their interests are harmed, or their ways of doing things are contradicted…

Then that’s the enemy!

The nemesis!

This also explains why Kong Heng harbored such deep hatred toward Wu Jie.

Why, when the Kong family of Liuli City fell into trouble, someone would brazenly attempt to assassinate Wu Jie during the highway inauguration ceremony.

Wasn’t this retaliation?

Obstructing people’s wealth is like killing their parents.

Wu Jie’s outing of Shen Liang, Shen Liang’s confession of his crimes, led to the collapse of the vast interest group headed by the Kong family of Liuli City.

This vengeance, this hatred, naturally festered in their hearts.

And so it came to be.

That’s why, upon seeing Wu Jie, Kong Heng became uncontrollable with rage!

That’s why there were those who cursed Wu Jie, calling him a bastard, a conscienceless dog!

That’s why the rude threats were made against Wu Jie’s wife, Tang Xiao!

Sigh~

Taking a deep breath.

Wu Jie realized these people weren’t sick in the head; they had formed a deep-rooted ‘profits above all’ ideology.

And so…

“Stop right there!!”

Wu Jie commanded in a cold voice.

The Kong family members trying to drag Kong Heng away were momentarily stunned.

But then, as though struck by a revelation, someone thought to alleviate the awkwardness.

“Sorry, Mr.

Wu, Kong Heng is just a kid who speaks out of turn.

You’re a magnanimous person, don’t stoop to his level!”

“He is innocent.

He’s always been so just since childhood, just can’t come to terms with the elders’ arrest and imprisonment!”

“He’s under a lot of psychological pressure, he loses his sense when he talks.

Mr.

Wu, please don’t take it to heart!

He was just talking nonsense.”

“Kids talk rubbish; you can’t take them seriously.

Mr.

Wu, don’t dwell on it, he was just kidding around!”

…

Wu Jie smiled without uttering a word.

Silently, he unzipped his shoulder bag, whipped out his service pistol in a swift motion.

Instantly!

The Kong family members, who were babbling incessantly and causing a ruckus, immediately shut up.

Each of them widened their eyes, staring at Wu Jie in shock, fear, and awe.

These were not ordinary people.

They had connections and extensive networks.

Of course, they knew that Wu Jie’s status was far from ordinary.

Many people still believed that Wu Jie, the son-in-law, was only successful because of his wife, Tang Xiao, and her family, Tianyuan Tang Family.

Winning the Zhuzhou Continent SAM project, creating the Divine Snap APP software, developing the software conversion tool, and the Divine Detoxification Pill…

All thanks to his wife and her family’s backing, the world’s top 500 Tanglong Industrial Group!

Tang Xiao was so good at dealing with people, deliberately giving Wu Jie a lot of glory and honor to boost his reputation, lest others think Wu Jie was a pretty boy living off his rich wife.

But now?

The Kong family members, stunned like statues.

They were all too aware of Wu Jie’s hidden power, his vast authorities, and his relationships.

Could someone who could summon private jets at will, even ride in fighter jets, be a kept man?

Could someone who was always protected by Security Bureau agents and could call Tan on a whim be a pretty boy?

Even if Wu Jie were to go ‘bang bang bang’ and wipe out all of them right now, what could be done?

No outsider would ever know!

No media would ever report it!

Wu Jie might not even have to write a report or give any explanation.

And so…

Who would dare to gossip in the face of a life-and-death crisis?

Who would continue to babble?

Aside from Kong Heng, everyone fell silent, watching Wu Jie with respectful fear.

And what made them even more desperate…

The security agents who escorted Elder Kong Hailin for medical treatment didn’t try to stop or argue.

Instead, they cleared the onlooking doctors, nurses, and family members from the corridor, leaving it completely empty.

And the surveillance cameras were all turned off, the red indicator lights extinguished.

Then…

Was this a sweep before extermination?

Was this just watching Wu Jie take out the trash for the people?

The atmosphere turned icy!

Ominously silent!

In the September of the old wives’ summer, when it should feel stuffy and irritable,

suddenly, a chill ran down the spine, legs turned to jelly, head spun, and heart raced.

Wanted nothing more than to crawl into a hole, or jump out a window.

Click!

Wu Jie chambered a round.

“Speak up!

Why the silence?

Keep talking!”

Wu Jie’s lips curled slightly, his face wearing a wicked smile, eyes cold and ruthless.

The special agents standing behind Wu Jie on either side showed a strange and wicked smile.

They had long harbored a desire to wipe out this scum.

Now, it seemed Wu Jie would take action himself, which delighted them!

With a cold sweep of his gaze, Wu Jie scoffed,

“Who just said that Kong Heng is still a kid?

What, am I blind?”

“A kid who’s over one meter eighty, fit and strong, in his twenties, and a former major?”

“If he’s a child, how did he win the championship in the military’s all-arms combat competition?”

“Did everyone take it easy on him so he wouldn’t get injured, just gifting him a title to smooth his way up the ranks?”

“And how did he get into the Security Bureau then?

Still damn innocent and oh so righteous!”

“A truly righteous child wouldn’t let someone bend the law for personal gain, shield criminals, or threaten someone’s life, would they?”

“You folks sure love him!

Even now, you scheme to protect him, to…”

Before he could finish, Kong Heng stormed forward.

Pointing at his own nose, he glared fiercely, his presence overwhelming.

“Cut the damn crap!”

“I know you’re not the same man you used to be, that you have power and influence!”

“So what are you hesitating for?

Shoot!”

“If you dare, kill me!

If you don’t finish me today, sooner or later, I’ll finish you!”

“Of course, I wouldn’t bear to kill your wife.

She’s too pretty, with such a great figure!”

“For many years, she has been the woman of my dreams, and I’ve sworn more than once to have her!”

“Too bad a country bumpkin like you got her first, but no matter, when I had the chance, I tied her up, I—”

Bang!!

A crisp gunshot rang out.

Many were startled by the sound, and the women of the Kong family even screamed.

Everyone took a careful look and indeed discovered that Wu Jie had fired.

Kong Heng had already made outrageous claims, intending to kidnap and insult Wu Jie’s wife!

What man in the world could endure such a thing?

But…

Wu Jie had not blown Kong Heng’s head off; instead, he shot him in the shin.

The bullet precisely pierced the shinbone!

Due to the short distance and the high velocity of the bullet, it merely punched a small hole.

However…

Such a gunshot was no laughing matter.

In movies, actors can be shot several times and still charge into battle—that’s merely filming, with burst packs of fake blood.

In reality, the destructive power and impact of a bullet are terrifying.

One shot, one hole.

Kong Heng’s balance was instantly thrown off and he nearly staggered and fell.

With a reflexive cry, fresh blood began to seep from the wound, soaking his trouser leg red.

A heart-piercing, soul-tearing pain!

Kong Heng clenched his teeth, his fists creaking with the sound of his knuckles.

He endured, not falling to the ground to roll and howl in pain.

Phew!

Wu Jie blew on the gun barrel, his evil smile returning,

“You’ve got some nerve!

Keep talking then!”

“Don’t worry, it’s just a pierced shinbone, you won’t die from it, and you won’t bleed out, either!”

“Take your time, I’m in no rush.

My service pistol has a double-stacked magazine, still fourteen rounds left for you to slowly savor!”

Wu Jie’s words were chilling.

What did he mean?

To shoot every bullet into Kong Heng without letting him die?

It’s said that Wu Jie, who developed the Detox Pill, was also a highly skilled folk Divine Doctor.

So it was indeed possible for Wu Jie to make every shot painful for Kong Heng without being fatal.

Just like what’s been reported in the news.

A medical student had stabbed her unfaithful boyfriend multiple times, causing unspeakable agony, yet not killing him.

And the result?

Only minor injuries were found, resulting in just a three-year sentence.

Thus, it’s not the brutality of the assassin that should be feared, but an educated assassin!

Of course.

Now, Kong Heng faced the even more formidable Wu Jie, who—if he truly turned Kong Heng into a pile of mush—would undoubtedly get away with it.

“Don’t shake!”

Wu Jie pointed his gun at Kong Heng’s shin, chuckling,

“Aren’t you the all-arms combat champion?

Just a minor wound and you can’t stand steady?

Can’t handle the pain?”

“Stand straight!

Don’t wobble, or if my shot goes astray and kills you, that’d be too easy on you!”

Hearing this, Kong Heng’s family was nearly apoplectic.

Not to kill with a single shot, but to torment slowly, shot by shot!

Even having Kong Heng stand firm to avoid affecting the shooter’s precision!

Damn!

Such torture was simply cruel!

This was suffocatingly ruthless!

Given the situation, Wu Jie obviously had no intention of letting Kong Heng off the hook.

What to do now?

Could anyone save Kong Heng?

He was the pride and future of the family!

He couldn’t end so tragically!

But…

None dared speak.

None dared intervene.

Bullets do not have eyes!

And Kong Heng, having been shot, seemed not to have learned his lesson.

Instead, very ‘obediently’, he gritted his teeth, stood firm, unshakably tough.

He arrogantly pointed at his own chest, bellowing,

“If you want to see me in agony for twenty seconds before dying, then shoot me in the heart!”

“Come on!

Fire the gun!

You—”

Bang!

Another crisp gunshot…
