The Whale in the Mountains
Chapter 182 Tearing Off the Mask
"Hehe, young man, what do you mean by that?"
The Dragon King looked at Chen Xiao, still with a smiling expression.
However, his tone made it sound like this was the first time they had met.
Chen Xiao coldly smiled and asked, "Long Xiao, don't you remember me? We met at the hospital yesterday!"
The Dragon King feigned realization. "Oh, it's Dr. Chen. I was wondering why you looked so familiar. I didn't expect to meet you in this kind of situation, so I didn't dare to recognize you just now."
Everyone was slightly stunned upon hearing these words.
Isn't this young man the Jiangcheng underground kingpin? How did he become a doctor?
Then, the Dragon King suddenly changed his tone. "Dr. Chen, I remember your life-saving grace to my brother, but one matter is separate from another. If you don't explain what you just said, don't blame me, Long, for turning against you!"
Chen Xiao snorted disdainfully. "Isn't what I said clear enough? The car accident that hit Han Bin was not ordered by Da Xiang at all!"
The Dragon King coldly said, "Da Xiang's underlings have already admitted it. Are you still trying to defend him?"
Chen Xiao smiled contemptuously. "With the strength of your Underworld Palace, it's too easy to make someone lie through their teeth. And you call that evidence?"
The Dragon King stood with his hands behind his back and asked again, "Then who do you say did it, if it wasn't Da Xiang?"
Chen Xiao said indifferently, "I've already said it. This play was directed by you. So the one who hit Han Bin was none other than you!"
As soon as Chen Xiao said this, everyone felt that he was talking nonsense, because it was unreasonable for the Dragon King to hit his own brother just to frame Da Xiang.
The Dragon King laughed. "Listen to yourself. What are you even saying? Me hitting my own brother? Does that make any sense?"
Chen Xiao said calmly, "It's precisely because it sounds unreasonable that I'm sure it was you!"
"Because when I was treating Han Bin, I saw that his strength was at least above the Huajing (Transformation Realm). Tell me, which Huajing Grandmaster can be hit by a truck?"
"But he was hit, so there's only one reason: he was willing to be hit!"
"Why would he be willing to be hit by a truck? Obviously, it was his big brother, you, who asked him to do it!"
Chen Xiao was inspired by Han Jiuqian when he thought of this.
Sometimes, the more illogical something seems, the more likely it is to be the truth!
The Dragon King looked at Chen Xiao with interest and asked, "Even if I could ask him to do that, why would I ask him to do that? Am I not afraid of accidentally killing my brother? That mere Da Xiang is not worthy of being compared to my brother!"
Chen Xiao then said, "This is the most precise part of your calculation, because you knew I would be at the Central Hospital, and you knew I had the ability to save Han Bin!"
"Long Xiao, your greatest strengths are your precise calculations and your ability to gather intelligence. You know everything about everyone here!"
"And that's why you were able to become the Master of the Underworld Palace. Otherwise, you wouldn't have the strength to truss a chicken, you don't know any martial arts, and you're even a eunuch. How can you lead the entire Underworld Palace? Why are so many Huajing Grandmasters willing to be your lackeys!"
The crowd was in an uproar!
What? The Master of the dignified Underworld Palace, the Dragon King, doesn't know martial arts and is a eunuch?
Is this true?
After Chen Xiao's reminder, everyone carefully looked at the Dragon King... The more they looked, the more it seemed to be true. Could it be that this kid really hit the nail on the head?
The Dragon King's expression turned ferocious. Being a eunuch was the greatest pain in his heart, his inverse scale, and absolutely untouchable!
However, Chen Xiao actually revealed his secret in public today, and killing intent rose from his body!
"Boy, you're very smart. What you said is all correct. But you will still die today!"
The Dragon King no longer bothered with those conspiracies and intrigues, and directly tore off his mask.
After all, the Underworld Palace's hard power was there. Even if there was no just cause, no one would dare to say anything!
Han Jiuqian jumped forward and said loudly, "Dragon King, if you want to kill Chen Xiao, you have to ask me if I agree first! You have to ask the Jiangbei bosses if they agree!"
Han Jiuqian had been waiting for an opportunity to rise up, and he had finally waited for it.
The best opportunity is now.
The Dragon King sneered, "Han Jiuqian, you only represent yourself at most. Represent the Jiangbei bosses? Are you worthy?"
"You'll know if I'm worthy in a moment!"
Han Jiuqian turned his gaze to the bosses.
However, those bosses who had agreed with him were not moved at all at this moment. Some even lowered their heads and took a few steps back.
"You?!"
Han Jiuqian's head buzzed, and he immediately understood that these people had betrayed him!
Liu Songqing of the Fierce Tiger Gate took the lead and said, "Boss Han, I'm really sorry, we've decided to remain neutral. We won't get involved in your affairs!"
Han Jiuqian's eyes were about to split. "You're a bunch of short-sighted people! Don't you know that there's only one result of remaining neutral: being devoured by the Underworld Palace bit by bit!"
Before he could finish speaking, Liu Yan of the Flying Swallow Gate said, "Being devoured is better than being killed. Boss Han, I advise you to mind your own business. You can't twist your arm against your thigh. The Underworld Palace unifying Jiangbei is what everyone wants!"
"You're farting!"
Han Jiuqian cursed angrily.
He had cultivated his composure very well and hadn't been angry for decades, but at this moment, he was trembling with anger.
At this time, Da Xiang said in a muffled voice, "Boss Han, don't be angry. Even if they all betray you, at least there's my master and me. To deal with the Underworld Palace, the three of us are enough!"
Although no one knew where Da Xiang got the confidence to say this, he was indeed full of heroism at this moment!
The Dragon King smiled slightly. "Everyone, if any of you can capture these three rebels, you will be friends of my Underworld Palace. This is a rare opportunity. If my Underworld Palace takes action, you won't have a chance!"
Boss Wang directly said, "Dragon King, we said just now that we will remain neutral. Although we won't help Boss Han deal with the Dragon King Palace, we won't stab Boss Han in the back for the Dragon King Palace either!"
The Jiangbei bosses all meant the same thing.
They weren't fools and could naturally see what the Dragon King was planning.
He was trying to make them kill each other, and the Underworld Palace would reap the benefits in the end.
However, there were also scoundrels with rebellious thoughts, such as Hu San and Zuo Tianyou.
The two of them looked at Chen Xiao at the same time. "Boy, you, do you dare to come out and exchange a few moves!"
These two were looking for a pushover, and Chen Xiao was the youngest, so he was obviously a pushover.
However, as soon as they finished speaking, Da Xiang rushed out with a stride. "If you want to fight my master, you have to get past me first!"
