Chapter 843: Chapter 853: Breaking Through the Bottom Line of the Mind! (4 more)
Tang Zhong reappeared, but it was exactly the same as when he disappeared before, as if nothing had changed.
Earlier, his entire person vanished, and now he has disappeared again.
Now Tang Zhong is truly weak.
He lies on the ground.
Looking at the surrounding flames.
Currently, he is in a safe place, the surrounding flames cannot reach him. However, this is ultimately a dangerous location, and it’s best to leave as soon as possible.
Xuxu climbed up from the ground. Right now, he needs to leave this place.
He staggered immediately, heading outward.
He must survive. Although it’s unclear how he survived the artillery bombardment, at least now he’s alive. As long as he’s alive, his life deserves to be cherished.
Meanwhile, Peng Yuan, the old General, had already charged over with his men. Despite being close to ninety years old, he exuded an aura of sharp determination.
The people behind him immediately followed.
On the other hand, how could Giger not notice Peng Yuan? First, he froze for a moment, then broke into a grin. If his guess was correct, this old fellow had undoubtedly come because of Tang Zhong, who was already dead. But now, Tang Zhong is no longer alive.
According to international norms, Giger had to greet him. Turning around with a hypocritical smile, he said, "Ah, it’s General Peng! What brings you here? Are you perhaps here for military exchanges this time?"
Feigning politeness was Giger’s forte.
"Exchanges, my ass!" Peng Yuan roared bluntly.
He was a hot-tempered man. Although his temperament had mellowed with the passage of time, the current situation had ignited his suppressed emotions.
To know, long ago, Lian Qiang’s death might very well have been linked to Yun Country.
Upon hearing this, Giger’s expression turned grim. Even though killing Tang Zhong left him guilty, he retorted, "General Peng, isn’t it true that your Xuan Country often says ’Friends come from afar, isn’t it a delight? Why speak like this now?’"
"Are you our friend?" Peng Yuan snorted coldly.
"You..." Giger was truly provoked. This was Yun Country’s Ruida State, their territory, after all. Who would tolerate being humiliated on their own turf?
Immediately, Giger said coldly, "What exactly brings General Peng here today?"
"Where is Tang Zhong?" Peng Yuan demanded sharply.
As expected, he had come for Tang Zhong.
Giger’s expression darkened. "General Peng, what are you talking about? I have no idea where Tang Zhong is."
Since no one had seen them kill Tang Zhong, they were determined to deny everything—let’s see what Peng can do about it.
"I said, where is Tang Zhong?" Peng Yuan roared.
"Oh my, General Peng, it’s truly rare to see you lose your cool!" Giger sneered. "This Tang Zhong you speak of, I don’t even know him. How could I know his whereabouts? Anyway, he’s not here. You should leave now!"
"Speak..." Peng Yuan immediately drew his pistol and pointed it at Giger. "This is your last chance. Will you talk or not?"
The cold voice echoed, signifying Peng Yuan’s unwavering resolve. Those around, witnessing the scene, turned pale one by one.
No one had expected Peng Yuan to suddenly pull out a gun.
"Don’t..." Zhang Changgong interjected to stop him.
As for Giger’s face, it turned ashen. He had long known that Peng Yuan didn’t play by the rules, but this—this was beyond anything he had imagined. Staring at the pitch-black muzzle of the gun, he was genuinely terrified Peng might pull the trigger.
He wasn’t an Ability User; there was no way he could evade the attack.
"You... put down the gun. Anything else can be discussed!"
The officers behind Giger hadn’t carried guns themselves; they had brought only rockets and similar items this time.
But Peng Yuan ignored Giger’s words, saying, "I’m asking you—where is Tang Zhong? If you don’t tell me, the next second, I’ll shoot!"
"You old madman, what on earth are you talking about..." Giger stammered in fear.
"Afraid now? If you’re scared, then speak! If you refuse to talk, I’ll blow your brains out!" Peng Yuan continued.
"This Tang Zhong you speak of—we truly have no idea..." Giger said fearfully.
But he forced himself to suppress his panic.
"Seems like you don’t plan on speaking!" Peng Yuan sneered and began to press the trigger.
The surrounding onlookers, upon seeing this, turned even paler.
Zhang Changgong and his companions were flustered. If the trigger were pulled, everyone here would face chaos. After all, this wasn’t Xuan Country. None of them could understand why the usually calcuating Peng Yuan now seemed like a reckless fool.
Giger truly panicked. There was no way he could avoid it; the distance between them was too close.
At this moment, the trigger was pulled.
Giger closed his eyes and shouted, "Peng Yuan, if I die, you won’t leave here alive!"
Giger thought he was about to die.
And everyone else thought so too.
But what they imagined never happened.
After Peng Yuan pulled the trigger, no bullet was fired.
At this moment, Peng Yuan smiled at Giger and said, "Was that joke fun?"
Joke?
The surrounding onlookers froze for a moment, then quickly realized the gun in Peng Yuan’s hand seemed to have been empty.
They all let out a sigh of relief—turns out it was just a joke.
Giger was drenched in cold sweat, terrified beyond measure. These Xuan Country people were truly a bunch of maniacs.
"Fun... very fun!" Giger replied awkwardly, forcing a smile.
"How about continuing to play next?" Peng Yuan chuckled and pulled out some bullets from his pocket, beginning to load the gun.
"You... What are you doing now?" Giger shouted anxiously.
Having just escaped death, he now felt like he was inching closer to it again.
Peng Yuan pointed the gun at Giger and said, "I’m asking you—where is Tang Zhong?"
Cold sweat dripped from Giger’s forehead. He never expected Peng Yuan to keep escalating. It was clear this old man wouldn’t flinch from pulling the trigger.
Still, if he didn’t give an answer, he’d be shot dead instantly—a fate he could not accept.
In that moment, he decided to claim Tang Zhong was already dead and make up a story.
After all, Tang Zhong was dead, and this was Yun Country territory. As long as Peng didn’t shoot, he could survive.
"Speak!" Peng Yuan roared.
The first time had been intentional, meant to breach Giger’s defenses. Now, killing him wasn’t important; the priority was finding Tang Zhong.
"I’ll talk..." Giger hesitated, ready to concoct a story about Tang Zhong’s demise.
But just then, a weak voice suddenly echoed from the side.
"General Peng Yuan... Why are you here?"
(General Peng Yuan is truly an incredible character!)
