501: Chapter 499 Assassin?

After turning onto the village road, Chen Yang glanced at the rear-view mirror and did not see those cars that were surrounding him earlier.

Chen Yang smiled faintly, thinking he was just being paranoid.

But before the thought even finished forming in his mind, a gleam of reflection suddenly flashed across the mirror!

Chen Yang instinctively shut his eyes, then promptly opened them and took a look behind.

The cars from before!

They were catching up again!

“What a nuisance it has really become,” he muttered.

Seeing the vehicles that were catching up, Chen Yang was now almost one hundred percent certain that they were after trouble.

Liuhe Village and the surrounding areas were poor; nobody owned a sedan, let alone such a fleet of cars.

Who else could be following him all this way if not for a clear purpose?

Chen Yang furrowed his brows, driving normally.

He wanted to see what those cars were up to.

Chen Yang drove at a steady pace, in the center of the road, making sure the adjacent lanes were completely blocked to other vehicles.

But unexpectedly, the cars behind him, realizing they couldn’t overtake Chen Yang, suddenly accelerated, caught up, and then maintained the same speed as his car, leaving just a few centimeters between them.

With a tight frown, Chen Yang kept his attention on the rear-view mirror, trying to figure out their intentions.

After the car behind steadied at a close distance, the back door opened and a burly man climbed out, flipped onto the roof, and then jumped onto the roof of Chen Yang’s car.

“Damn!

What a move.”

The operation of the car behind took Chen Yang by surprise, eliciting an involuntary exclamation from him.

Subsequently, he instinctively slammed on the brakes, and the vehicle came to a sudden halt.

Bang, bang…

With just a few centimeters between Chen Yang’s car and the rear car, Chen Yang’s sudden braking meant that the car behind had no time to react and consequently rear-ended him.

Moreover, several cars were tailgating, all crashing into one another like bumper cars.

“Huh…”

The big man who had climbed onto Chen Yang’s roof was flung off and landed in front of Chen Yang’s car, letting out a painful cry.

After the emergency braking, Chen Yang glanced at the big man lying in front of the car and then swiftly got out.

As Chen Yang alighted, people also started getting out from the other cars one by one.

The surroundings were enveloped in darkness; the only source of light was from the car headlights.

However, this allowed Chen Yang to clearly see the faces of his opponents, a group of masked men.

All were wearing black cloths over their faces, with only their eyes visible; nothing else could be seen.

“Who are you?

Who sent you?”

Chen Yang looked at the men and then immediately spoke out harshly.

One of them, a masked man wearing a suit, sneered, “Who are we?

The ones who are here to take your life!”

After finishing his sentence, he pulled out a dagger from behind and stabbed it straight at Chen Yang.

As he made his move, the whole group of masked men behind him were stirred into action, each drawing a dagger and rushing at Chen Yang.

More than a dozen men charged; the scene was somewhat frightening, but Chen Yang did not panic.

Because he could tell that although there were many of them, they had little to no fighting ability; they were nothing but brutes.

“Seeking death!”

Chen Yang roared lowly, clenched his fists, and also charged forward.

Chen Yang was remarkably quick and hit hard, his every punch aimed at vital points, yet not fatal, simply incapacitating them temporarily as they lay on the ground howling in pain.

The group of more than ten masked men were sorted out by Chen Yang in just a few moments.

For Chen Yang, taking out these untrained men was as easy as bullying children, hardly requiring any effort at all.

Having dealt with them, Chen Yang casually collected the daggers that were scattered on the ground.

“I am going to ask you a question now.

Answer me and I’ll throw away the daggers.

Don’t answer, and I’ll give them back to you.

Make your choice,” Chen Yang said calmly as he walked over to the leader of the masked men.

He toyed with a dagger in his hand, crouched down, and asked, “Who sent you?”

Chen Yang’s tone was flat, devoid of any emotion, as if he were engaging in a simple conversation.

“You might as well save your breath, I won’t tell you anything.”

The leader of the masked men tried to endure the intense pain in his stomach and stubbornly said.

“Heh.”

With a cold laugh, Chen Yang said nothing more and drove the dagger he had been toying with in his hand straight into the man’s palm!

The man’s palm was pierced by the dagger, causing blood to spill out immediately, and he let out a heart-wrenching scream!

“Ah!”

The piercing screams contrasted sharply with the quiet surroundings.

Although the other masked men were in great pain, the kind that completely incapacitated them, through the screams they clearly understood what had just happened.

At the same time, they also realized what Chen Yang meant by “if you don’t answer, I’ll give the dagger back to you”…

In an instant, everyone was stricken with fear.

Their bodies began to tremble uncontrollably.

At this moment, Chen Yang stood up from in front of the leader of the masked men and walked over to another person.

Again, Chen Yang took out a dagger and asked, “Who sent you?”

With the previous example before him, the second masked man was very obedient.

No sooner had Chen Yang asked than he hurriedly answered.

“It was…

it was our young master who sent us,” the masked man said, fighting through the pain.

“You’re quite sensible.”

Chen Yang commented, then stood up, threw the dagger in his hand into the wilderness, and took out a third dagger, proceeding to go in front of the others and questioning them one by one.

Those who answered had their daggers thrown away by Chen Yang; those who didn’t, Chen Yang would give their dagger-holding hand a jab.

Soon, Chen Yang had questioned the entire group.

At the same time, he also got the information he wanted.

These people were not assassins; they were just a bunch of bodyguards.

Zhou Qianzheng’s bodyguards!

They came to ambush him in the dead of night on Zhou Qianzheng’s orders!

“This is an underestimation, huh?

To think that instead of calling a real assassin, you sent a bunch of bodyguards to make a move,” Chen Yang said playfully after getting a clear picture of the situation.

Most of the bodyguards lying on the ground had recovered their senses by then, and their bodies were no longer as overwhelmed.

Hearing Chen Yang’s words, they had mixed feelings, but they didn’t dare say anything more, fearing that Chen Yang would target them and attack.

The scene fell silent for a while until a masked man suddenly crawled up and knelt in front of Chen Yang, pleading, “Big brother, we were only following orders.

Please have mercy and don’t hold this against us.

We know we were wrong, please let us go.”

As soon as this masked man spoke up, the other masked men quickly chimed in.

“Yes, big brother, we were wrong.

We were just following orders.

Please let us go, we promise never to accept such orders again!”

The masked men knelt in unison in front of Chen Yang, begging desperately for mercy.

Chen Yang had been considering how to deal with these people.

Seeing their frantic kowtowing, he had no urge to do anything more.

“I’m definitely going to let you go, but before I do, there are a few words I need you to pass on to Zhou Qianzheng,” Chen Yang said.

When the masked men heard that Chen Yang was planning to release them, they were overjoyed.

“Brother, you say it; I promise to convey it accurately.”

Chen Yang glanced at the men and then said, “Go back and tell him to be sensible and not to mess with me anymore, nor to mess with Ruoxi.

Ruoxi is my woman.”

“If he still doesn’t know what’s good for him and does something to anger me, he shouldn’t blame me for being ruthless.”
