General of the Heavens

Chapter 74 Double-crossing [Seeking Recommendations]

The sudden turn of events left everyone bewildered; it just happened so suddenly, and out of nowhere, I was armed with two submachine guns.

Yu Peng's men moved the burial objects from the tomb to Ning Chen's feet, while Ning Chen stared intently at the members of the China Customs and Traditions Survey Team.

The Japanese are full of evil intentions, and their leader is the most treacherous and cunning. This guy should have a set of ancient Chinese accounts.

The China Antiques Collection is a book of cultural relics compiled by the Japan China Customs Association based on ancient Chinese historical documents.

It contains hundreds or even thousands of cultural relics.

Towards the end of the Northern Expedition, a Japanese delegation came to China and kept acquiring cultural relics from the Chinese antique register, attempting to take the national treasures back to Japan and keep them for themselves.

The reason the Chinese customs and culture survey team came to the Eastern Qing Tombs was for the Nine Dragon Sword in the tomb of Emperor Qianlong, which also led to clues about an imperial tomb that was even more magnificent than the Eastern Qing Tombs.

The greed of the Japanese is simply astonishing. Such ambition is despicable. Ning Chen raised his right hand and pointed the gun directly at Sakai Daisuke.

The members of the China Customs and Traditions Survey Team changed their expressions drastically. Next to the team leader, Daisuke Sakai, Eitoku Anekoji gave another person a wink.

The man suddenly stood up and, without anyone knowing where he pulled out a Japanese dagger about a foot long, charged at Ning Chen fearlessly.

Da da da! Da da da!

Ning Chen didn't hold back and wanted to rack up some kills, but he didn't expect that this person was already prepared to die and didn't stop even after being shot more than a dozen times.

"Damn it!"

Seeing the man charging towards him covered in blood, Ning Chen kicked him in the chest with a flying kick. With a few cracking sounds, the man's chest was broken open.

Seeing that the assassin he had just sent out was kicked away by Ning Chen, Mikoji Eitoku remained unfazed and pulled Sakai Daisuke away as they fled.

The rest of the local customs and geography survey team members used their bodies to block the two's way; the die-hard Japanese can sometimes be terrifying.

"You can't escape!"

Ning Chen couldn't show mercy. He pulled the trigger with both hands, and the gun muzzle flashed. In an instant, more than a dozen people were slaughtered by Ning Chen.

Sister Koji Eitoku and Sakai Daisuke fled at top speed, but Ning Chen's golden eyes spotted them every time they tried to move. Ning Chen's eyes shone as brightly as day.

They had no chance to escape.

Ning Chen pulled out a rifle from his system space. Yu Peng and his men were all terrified by Ning Chen's ruthless methods.

Load, aim, fire!

Ning Chen's movements were as smooth as flowing water. Sakai Daisuke and Anagoji Eitoku were now prey, and no matter how they tried to escape, they could not escape Ning Chen's golden eyes.

With a bang, Xiaolu Yongde fell to the ground. Ning Chen continued to aim, perhaps on the verge of despair.

Yu Peng and the others suddenly scattered and fled, probably because they all thought that Ning Chen would kill them after killing Sakai Daisuke.

If he didn't escape now, he probably wouldn't have another chance. Ning Chen secretly resented Yu Peng for really knowing how to pick his timing. He had gambled correctly, and Ning Chen's determination to kill Sakai Daisuke was even stronger.

Ning Chen adjusted his breathing slightly, fired the gun, a wisp of smoke rose from the muzzle, and Sakai Daisuke trembled and fell to the ground.

Ning Chen put away his rifle. He had aimed it at Sakai Daisuke's heart. With the rifle's penetrating power, Sakai Daisuke was basically dead.

After dealing with the Japanese, Ning Chen didn't fire again. He knew that the moment the gun went off, the main force of the tomb guards would begin to move.

Although Ning Chen was virtually invincible at night, he had more to do with the tomb of the Tongzhi Emperor's concubine than just today's tomb. The best option was to back down.

"You guys are lucky to be alive!"

People like Yu Peng ruined their lives by getting addicted to smoking. The Japanese had a handle on them, and they were destined to become traitors. Unfortunately, he escaped.

Looking at the pile of burial objects and coffins at his feet, Ning Chen decided to abandon the idea because of the time constraints. According to the rules of the Fa Qiu lineage, candles must be lit before opening any coffin.

Ning Chen casually stored the remaining burial items into his system space and then retreated. However, when he passed by the location of Sakai Daisuke's body, he suddenly realized that Sakai Daisuke's body had disappeared.

The body couldn't just disappear for no reason, so there's only one possibility: Sakai Daisuke wasn't killed by a single shot.

"Fuck!"

Ning Chen cursed himself for being careless and didn't fire another shot. Letting such an enemy live would only add to his burden.

At this moment, the Qing Eastern Tombs were brightly lit inside and out. Yu Peng, who had narrowly escaped, was furious and determined to tear Wang Shaoyi to pieces!

At this point, he could no longer mention that he had just been embezzling from the tomb of one of the Tongzhi Emperor's concubines. He could only mobilize his troops under the pretext of killing the tomb robbers.

"What a pity, my precious treasure!"

Yu Peng's heart was bleeding. He had gone through countless hardships and risked immense danger to excavate a concubine's tomb, only to be betrayed and killed in less than half an hour...

"You son of a bitch, Wang Shaoyi, I'll kill you!"

Yu Peng was completely unaware that the so-called bandit Wang Shaoyi was actually an imposter created by Ning Chen on a whim. He didn't even consider that if he were truly a bandit, how could he possibly come alone?

All the treasures had been stored in the system space. Ning Chen left quickly, his Golden Eyes proving invincible, allowing him to move with incredible speed.

By the time Yu Peng and his men arrived, Ning Chen had already fled. Several hundred men, carrying torches, wandered around the Qing Dongling Mausoleum without finding a single person.

"Useless! A bunch of useless trash! The imperial tombs have been robbed; how can we face our ancestors? The Qing emperor only abdicated seventeen years ago..."

To be honest, Yu Peng has quite the potential to be an actor. When he couldn't catch Ning Chen, he burst into tears. The other tomb keepers sighed and lamented that the once glorious Qing Dynasty had fallen into such a state.

After crying for a while, Yu Peng said to everyone, "You should all leave. I want to be alone. Let me stay here by myself. I want to apologize to our ancestors!"

"Lord Yu, don't cry yourself sick."

Everyone sighed with admiration, saying that Yu Peng had a sincere heart and regarded guarding the tomb as his lifelong duty, truly a role model. After offering some words of comfort, they all left.

Everyone present knew that after tonight, a bloody storm would likely break out in the outside world, and the capital would become lively again.

"Sakai Daisuke, come out here!"

As Yu Peng was crying, he suddenly shouted. As soon as he finished speaking, Sakai Daisuke, covered in blood, staggered out.

"Yu-jun, how did you know I was here?"

Sakai Daisuke asked weakly, "Ning Chen's shot hit my left chest precisely, but my heart is naturally on the right side, which is why I escaped death."

Yu Peng gave a bitter smile: "No one could dodge that shot, but your body is nowhere to be found on the ground. Where else could you run but here?"

Daisuke Sakai sighed, "The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind; we've both become stepping stones for others!"

Yu Peng cursed, "It's all that bastard Wang Shaoyi's fault! Tomorrow I'll have the imperial clan publish an order in the newspapers and have the government send a large army to wipe them out!"

Daisuke Sakai shook his head: "You don't really think that person is Wang Shaoyi, do you?" Yu Peng thought that person was referring to Wang Shaoyi, but Daisuke Sakai didn't think so.

"How could it not be him?"

Daisuke Sakai waved his hand: "Don't talk about that now, get me to the hospital right away, I think I can still be saved..."
