Chapter 535: Chapter 535: An encounter with the Nangong Family_1
The old man cast a glance at Zhang Xian and shook his head with a bitter smile.
Zhang Xian furrowed his brow and asked, "You’ve been here for three years and you don’t know anything?"
The old man replied, "What could I possibly know? Other than studying various medicinal herbs every day, I’m not allowed to do anything else. You tell me what could I possibly know?"
Zhang Xian asked, "Is this the same for everyone else?"
The old man nodded and said, "They’re just like me, meddling with medicinal herbs all day. We aren’t allowed to ask about anything else, and nobody tells us anything. We’re all strangers to this place, it’s not like you know any more than us. My advice is, now that you’re in here, just stop overthinking things. At least now we’re still alive, aren’t we?"
Being told this, Zhang Xian was greatly disheartened.
Upon entering here, he had hoped to uncover some clues, but these people turned out to know nothing. Wasn’t this a waste of time?
Remembering something, he asked again, "By the way, do you know where the things researched here are being sent?"
The old man shook his head and said, "I don’t know. I don’t know anything."
"Damn it..." Zhang Xian suddenly let out a curse.
Upon his outburst, everyone turned their heads towards him, their gazes landing on Zhang Xian’s body, all filled with sympathy. They all knew that this newcomer was about to face a string of misfortunes.
Indeed, a middle-aged man in the corner jumped to his feet and angrily said, "Kid, are you begging for a beating? What are you shouting about?"
"Hey you, get your ass over here," Zhang Xian retorted, staring back at the middle-aged man.
The people around were taken aback, their glances at Zhang Xian filled with surprise. Was this guy out of his mind? Did he not realise where he was? Wasn’t showing off here akin to asking for trouble?
The old man was also quite frightened and quickly distanced himself from the brash newcomer. Having just arrived, this guy was already causing a scene. He had decided that the guy next to him definitely had a screw loose.
"Shit..." The middle-aged man was stunned for a second before he picked up a metal rod and rushed at Zhang Xian.
This little runt had the audacity to cause trouble here? Was he begging for death?
Walking up to Zhang Xian quickly, without a word he swung his metal rod at Zhang Xian’s head. Regardless of the matter, he figured he should pound some sense into this guy first.
"Scum." Zhang Xian grabbed the incoming rod and followed with two direct slaps.
With only ’pop pop’ two sounds, the middle-aged man was taken off guard and slapped twice, left with no teeth in his mouth.
"Snap..."
After slapping the middle-aged man, Zhang Xian showed no signs of stopping. He then twisted the man’s right hand with a snap, and without changing his expression, he said, "Go call the person in charge here."
"Ah..." The middle-aged man screamed in agony.
Seizing the man’s throat, Zhang Xian silenced his screams and asked, "Didn’t you hear what I said? If I have to repeat myself, you will pay a heavy price."
"I...I will go and call...now," the middle-aged man quickly complied.
Zhang Xian raised his hand, releasing him and tossing him aside.
The middle-aged man clenched his teeth, withstood the severe pain to bounce up from the ground, and ran out of the lab at the fastest speed.
"This guy is tough..."
"What’s so big a deal being tough? This is someone else’s territory. Can he fight a gang all by himself? One can’t beat four hands with two!"
"Exactly, this guy is going to be in big trouble."
The people around were discussing Zhang Xian’s fate. In this place, these guys were the overlords, they could do whatever they wanted and there was no room for them to resist.
"It’s that guy over there."
Sure enough, the middle-aged man returned quickly. Behind him was a sizable crowd of about twenty people.
"Damn! Who dares to cause trouble here?"
The leader was a tall, bearded stout man. He walked up to Zhang Xian, looking down at him and said, "Kid, do you know what death is?"
Zhang Xian looked up, grabbed the burly man who was a head taller than him, and slammed him to the ground.
Then, he waved his hand and several strikes of Spiritual Energy were unleashed. Barely just having rushed in, the men didn’t even know what was happening when they experienced a bout of dizziness, and the next moment, their heads left their bodies.
Afterwards, in the astonished eyes of the crowd, over twenty headless bodies in succession fell to the ground and the floor was quickly drenched in red.
"You..." The burly man jumped up, about to retaliate.
Seeing his comrades all down on the ground and heads removed, he was nearly scared shitless. What on earth had happened in the short span of time just now?
"Take me to see the person in charge here. Or else, you’ll end up the same as them," Zhang Xian coldly said, looking at the burly man.
"I...I will take you right away." The stout man swallowed hard, no longer daring to show off.
The incident just now was too strange. Within a few breaths, the more than twenty men he had brought over were silently beheaded by this little guy. Was this some kind of daytime nightmare?
Zhang Xian gave a cold laugh and followed.
"What...what just happened? What exactly happened just now?"
The people in the lab recovered their senses and all wore astonished expressions. They could hardly believe what had just taken place before their eyes; it was too damned bizarre.
...
Inside a room in the lab.
A middle-aged man in a suit was sitting behind his office desk, tidying up stacks of data.
These were the results coming out of their research lab. The arrival date of his superiors was nearing and he had to sort the data quickly.
"Bang..."
Suddenly, the door was kicked open.
Following suit, a young man walked in dragging a large man with him.
"Ah... Who... who are you..." The middle-aged man looked up, asking in fright.
He recognized the large man. The guy was their security captain. At this moment, how could he become a captive and be so submissive?
"Are you the head of the research lab?" Zhang Xian asked.
The middle-aged man swallowed, saying, "Yes, who are you? Why are you here? And what are you trying to do?"
"You have no right to know who I am, and now, you just answer whatever I ask you. If you dare to lie, I will make your death excruciating." Zhang Xian said coldly, looking at the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man looked at the security captain, then at Zhang Xian, and asked in terror, "What do you want to know?"
"What is the main focus of your research in this lab?" Zhang Xian asked. "And who would be the final recipient of your research results?"
The middle-aged man said, "We... We primarily research the properties of various medicinal materials. As for where they are sent, I do not know. It’s people from above who have always come to take them."
Frowning, Zhang Xian asked, "Do you know the purpose of their actions?"
The middle-age man shook his head, "I do not know. I’m only responsible for studying the properties of medicinal materials. I don’t know anything about the rest."
Zhang Xian’s face grew cold as he asked, "Are you asking to be killed?"
"No... No...," the middle-aged man panicked, kneeling on the ground, saying "Bro... Brother... I... I really don’t know!"
Zhang Xian’s mouth twitched unnaturally several times before he took out the middle-aged man, followed by the security captain. These guys who usually acted so arrogantly were a menace if left alive.
Having taken care of the two, he walked over to the desk. A quick sweep with his divine sense and he lost interest.
What the middle-aged man said was not false. This damned lab was indeed studying the properties of various medicinal materials. It was just the lowest tier of research, providing no clues.
"Wasted trip."
Zhang Xian shook his head with a wry smile. Waving his hand, he projected a fireball, firing up the documents on the table before turning and walking out.
Upon reaching the entrance of the previous research lab, he hesitated, then turned and walked in, saying "Everyone, I’ve sorted out those guys inside, you can all go!"
"What?" Everyone involuntarily stood up.
Zhang Xian said, "As I said, you can leave now. Of course, if anyone wants to stay, I won’t object."
"We can really get out?" Someone asked excitedly.
Zhang Xian scratched his nose, too lazy to engage further with these people, and walked out. He came here and found no clues. His mood was not good, not good at all.
"Let’s go take a look..." After hesitating for a moment, everyone ran out of the lab.
Much later, excited screams filled the lab. After being suppressed for so long, they could finally leave this damned place.
...
At a restaurant in Longshan City.
Zhang Xian was sitting at a table in a corner, eating heartily, planning to finish quickly and return to Tiandu.
Suddenly, three middle-aged men walked in and sat down nearby.
Among the three, two older ones had reached the Post Acquired Peak. The younger one was somewhat weaker, only in the Post Acquired Realm, and had not yet reached his peak.
Zhang Xian didn’t pay attention to these three extraordinary men at first. However, their conversation caught his attention and piqued his interest.
"Sigh, it seems we’re in deep trouble."
A middle-aged man said with a bitter face, "I have no idea what our family head is thinking, asking us to investigate that Zhang Xian. What can we three investigate?"
"Exactly."
Another middle-aged man said, "The Second Elder had gone with great confidence, only to be finished by that man. Not too long ago, the Third Elder also disappeared mysteriously. If we go, wouldn’t it be the same as seeking death? I think only the First Elder can handle this. If we, these small fry, go, we’ll just be targets."
"What can we do?"
The third middle-aged man said, "If the family head asked us to investigate, we have to do it."
"Sigh, just be careful! As long as we don’t mess with him, we’ll be fine."
The one who spoke first gave a bitter smile and said, "Once the First Elder gets involved, we will be relieved."
"Hmm..."
The third middle-aged man nodded and said, "Let’s eat first, then we’ll head to Tiandu."
"Looking for me? Interesting."
Zhang Xian chuckled, no longer in any hurry to leave, and began to eat leisurely.
When the three middle-aged men paid their bills and left, he also rose, following behind them. Now that they’d come here, he planned to exterminate the Nangong family who had been a constant nuisance like flies.
