Chapter 1236 A One-Star Bad Review
“Okay, I promise!” Chen Xuan nodded immediately.
“What makes you so sure?”
Huo Xiaoyu, standing nearby, interjected with annoyance.
Why did this guy talk as if he could handle anything?
Who did he think he was? Did he really think he could do whatever he pleased just because he knew King Dong?
Huo Xiaoyu turned to Chilon and said, “He’s not part of our Dragon Soul team, he can’t make decisions!”
Chilon was stunned, then looked at Huo Xiaoyu with the expression of someone looking at an idiot. Was this woman foolish?
Although Chilon didn’t speak, Huo Xiaoyu could clearly see the undisguised contempt in his eyes, which instantly fueled her anger.
Just then, the roar of an engine sounded, and a military-green Hummer sped over and screeched to a halt not far away.
The door opened, and King Dong, dressed in a black combat uniform, jumped out of the car.
“King Dong!”
Huo Xiaoyu immediately saluted, looking at King Dong with reverence.
“How did things go?”
King Dong’s face was grim as he asked.
Huo Xiaoyu quickly replied, “King Dong, Chilon is at the food street!”
King Dong’s eyes lit up. At that moment, he also saw Chen Xuan and walked quickly towards him.
Chen Xuan said calmly, “Chilon agreed to cooperate with the Dragon Soul team to uncover the Dragon Palace’s stronghold in Kyoto, but he needs assurance for his daughter’s safety. I think it’s a reasonable request. What do you think?”
King Dong immediately said, “If you think it’s good, then I naturally think it’s good!”
He looked at Chen Xuan with admiration. Chen Xuan was truly amazing to have persuaded Chilon.
Huo Xiaoyu’s eyes widened. Why did King Dong trust Chen Xuan so much?
She felt extremely dejected.
“Alright, Chilon is in your hands now.”
Chen Xuan finished speaking and looked at Chilon again, saying, “You cooperate well with King Dong from now on.”
Chilon silently nodded, still holding his daughter reluctantly.
King Dong waved his hand, signaling for his men to take Chilon away. He then turned to Huo Xiaoyu and said, “Huo Xiaoyu, you and your team should head back first.”
Without a word, Huo Xiaoyu turned and led her team away. However, before leaving, she glared fiercely at Chen Xuan, a look that conveyed, ‘Mind your own business and be sensible.’
“Brother Xuan, is there anything else?”
King Dong blinked.
He could tell that Chen Xuan had something to say earlier, but perhaps he felt awkward saying it with Huo Xiaoyu present.
Chen Xuan said solemnly, “How can the Dragon Soul team operate like this? Look at all these people around. What if something happens?”
King Dong scratched his head and quickly replied, “Brother Xuan, I’ll give them a stern lecture when we get back. If they dare to act like this again, I absolutely won’t let them off.”
“That’s enough!”
Chen Xuan waved his hand and said, “Especially Huo Xiaoyu. This operation will be rated one star!”
“Uh…”
King Dong hesitated for a moment, but then nodded.
In the Dragon Soul team, after every mission, leaders would rate their subordinates. The team leaders were rated particularly carefully. Generally, there were five stars, with five being the best and one being the worst. It was clear that Chen Xuan was extremely dissatisfied with Huo Xiaoyu’s performance.
It would be strange if he were satisfied. If Chilon hadn’t feared Chen Xuan, he might have gotten into a fight because of Huo Xiaoyu’s presence.
After resolving everything, King Dong bid farewell to Su Yunxi and turned to leave.
Chilon’s appearance was undoubtedly great news for the baffled Dragon Soul team. As long as they could find one Dragon Palace stronghold, the Dragon Soul team would have a chance to pull out the entire network, thus slowly uncovering the true face of the Dragon Palace!
“Yunxi, your fried potato chips!”
Chen Xuan grinned and handed a bag of fried potato chips to Su Yunxi.
“Chen Xuan, I’m so glad you’re okay.”
Su Yunxi took the potato chips, her eyes reddening slightly.
“It’s just a small matter, don’t worry.”
Chen Xuan put his arm around Su Yunxi’s shoulders, then took her hand, got into the car, and started the engine, driving towards the Su family residence in Kyoto.
After driving for a while, it suddenly began to pour.
The large raindrops hit the windshield, making a loud pattering sound.
The rain was so heavy that even with the wipers on their fastest setting, the road ahead was barely visible. However, Chen Xuan was fine. With his divine sense, he could judge the direction of travel. But since the cars ahead were slowing down, he had no choice but to do the same.
Suddenly, a clanging sound echoed.
Chen Xuan frowned, slammed on the brakes, and turned his head to see, not far away, several people wielding knives, beating a man.
The man was covered in blood, and several other people lay beside him, all suffering from stab wounds.
Clearly, this was no longer a simple brawl but a blatant act of violent assault!
He was shocked. This was Kyoto, and people dared to commit crimes here?
Since he had encountered this, Chen Xuan couldn’t just stand by and watch someone get beaten to death.
He said to Su Yunxi in the back, “Yunxi, wait in the car. I’ll go see what’s happening!”
“Chen Xuan, be careful!” Su Yunxi said urgently.
“Yes, I know, don’t worry.”
Chen Xuan nodded and opened the car door, getting out.
In the pouring rain, several people were ganging up on one person. Several of them held knives, and the person being ganged up on broke free from the crowd.
Chen Xuan recognized the face of the man being beaten. It was Master Zhang, the feng shui master who had previously assessed the feng shui for Jiang Shangmingyue. Why was he in such a state?
Even if it were a stranger, Chen Xuan wouldn’t stand idly by. Since it was an acquaintance, he rushed forward.
Gleaming steel knives slashed madly towards Master Zhang, who was filled with despair.
He was covered in blood and had no strength to resist.
His shoulders drooped powerlessly, and he chose to accept his fate. Due to excessive blood loss and extreme shock, he fainted.
The net formed by the steel knives directly enveloped Chen Xuan.
“Stop!”
Suddenly, an angry shout rang out, and a figure rushed forward.
It was Chen Xuan!
“Kid, this is the Greedy Wolf Gang’s business. If you don’t want to die, get lost!” a young man holding a steel knife coldly yelled.
“Greedy Wolf Gang?”
Chen Xuan frowned. He had no impression of the powers in Kyoto. He said coldly, “I don’t care if you’re the Greedy Wolf Gang or the Dog Wolf Gang. Dreaming if you think you can kill someone in front of me. If you don’t want to die, scram. Otherwise, I’ll break your hands and feet.”
“Dog Wolf Gang? How dare you insult our Greedy Wolf Gang?”
This remark clearly enraged everyone. Their expressions turned ferocious, as if they wanted to devour Chen Xuan.
“Brothers, attack! Break this guy’s hands and feet!”
A group of people charged at Chen Xuan.
“Attack?”
Chen Xuan was not afraid of a fight. Seeing everyone charge, he also moved forward swiftly.
In the downpour, screams of agony immediately echoed.
Soon, the group who called themselves the Greedy Wolf Gang lay on the ground, screaming in pain. Their expressions were venomous, and some were still defiant, saying, “Kid, you’ve offended our Greedy Wolf Gang. We won’t let you go!”
*Bang!*
Chen Xuan stomped on that person’s face. The latter’s eyes rolled back, and he fainted.
