Lin Chen clapped his hands, glanced at his "work," and nodded in satisfaction: "Hmm, my skills haven't gotten rusty yet."

Wang Xing stood there, holding the knife, his mouth agape, unable to close it for a long time.

He looked down at the knife in his hand, then at the human-shaped craters on the wall, and silently put the knife away.

This thing doesn't seem to be of any use.

Young Master Xie stood on the steps, his arrogance completely gone.

He stared, mouth agape, as his hundred or so men were cleaned up like trash. His legs trembled uncontrollably, and a strange "gurgling" sound escaped his throat, as if someone were choking him.

He wanted to run, but his legs wouldn't obey him; he was rooted to the spot and couldn't move an inch.

Lin Chen looked up at him and smiled slightly: "Now, can we go see your older brother?"

Young Master Xie's teeth chattered, and he managed to squeeze out a few words with great effort: "Is...it's okay."

Lin Chen stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder: "Let's go, lead the way."

The slap was so light that Young Master Xie's legs went weak and he almost knelt down.

Lin Chen gave it a disdainful look and turned to Wang Xing, saying, "Hold it tight, this thing is really useless."

Wang Xing quickly stepped forward to support Xie San Shao Ye's arm, his palms were sweaty, but his back was much straighter than before.

His admiration for Lin Chen was now as boundless as a surging river. This big shot was truly ruthless, and his strength was truly monstrous.

As the three walked further in, Xie San Shao Ye's legs gradually stopped shaking.

He kept his head down, but his steps were much steadyer. Lin Chen glanced at him out of the corner of her eye, but didn't say anything.

He knew what the little white-haired guy was thinking. Did he think he was safe once he got to his brother's place?

Ha ha.

Along the way, Xie's underlings kept popping up, standing at a distance, their eyes fixed on the three of them nervously.

The news of what was happening outside had already been relayed by the two henchmen guarding the gate, and the entire base knew that a menacing figure had arrived.

But with the Third Young Master in someone's hands, no one dared to make any rash moves.

After passing through a long underground passage, a group of people suddenly emerged in front of us.

The man at the front was in his thirties, with a gloomy face, thin lips, and cold eyes; he looked like a deep and calculating person.

Standing beside him was a woman, about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, dressed in a way that seemed too revealing for this apocalyptic world. Her features bore a resemblance to the man beside her, and also to the Third Young Master Xie.

Presumably, these are Xie Sanshao's older brother and sister, and also Lin Chen's target for this trip.

"Brother, sister, save me!" Xie Sanshao shouted at the top of his lungs as soon as he saw the two people in front of him, struggling to break free from Wang Xing's grasp. "This man is a ruthless killer!"

Wang Xing held onto his arm tightly, remaining motionless.

Seeing this, Miss Xie spoke first, her voice shrill and urgent: "Release my third brother! Let's talk this out!"

Lin Chen raised an eyebrow, turned his head to Wang Xing, and said, "Let him pass."

Wang Xing was stunned. They just let it go like that?

"Aren't you going to leave any bargaining chips or something?" But he didn't dare ask. He let go of her hand, and Xie San Shao staggered forward a few steps, running behind his older brother and sister without looking back.

Young Master Xie and Miss Xie were also taken aback.

Is this person really that easy to talk to? So... stupid?

The two exchanged a glance, a barely perceptible hint of joy flashing in their eyes.

Xie Sanshao stopped, turned around and looked at Lin Chen. His cowardly demeanor from before was completely gone. He raised his chin again and straightened his back.

He slowly walked over to his brother, as if deliberately letting Lin Chen see clearly, "Let me go, you have nothing left now."

Lin Chen looked at his smug expression and curled his lips slightly, too lazy to bother with this clown.

Seeing his younger brother arrive safely, Xie Shao's expression softened, and he cupped his hands in greeting to Lin Chen: "May I ask your esteemed name, brother?"

"Lin Chen".

"Brother Lin, what brings you here?"

"Let's find out some information."

Young Master Xie continued, "What news?"

Lin Chen stared into his eyes and spoke slowly, word by word: "I've heard that Young Master Xie started his fortune at Moon Lake Villa. Do you know the Liu family of the Liu Group in this neighborhood?"

The smile on Young Master Xie's face froze slightly, but only for a moment.

Her lips twitched, her eyes darted away but quickly returned, and she nodded awkwardly: "Of course I know, but I'm not very familiar with you."

He paused, as if feeling it wasn't enough, and added, "I heard their whole family turned into zombies."

Miss Xie was also stunned for a moment, subconsciously glanced at her eldest brother, and then quickly looked away.

Xie Sanshao was even worse; his eyes darted around, stealing glances at his elder brother, then at him again, his guilty conscience impossible to hide.

The polite smile on Lin Chen's face slowly faded, and his eyes narrowed. No need to ask anymore.

He began communicating with Li Ya and Liu Feifei in the space.

When Liu Feifei heard the words "find the murderer of her mother," there was a moment of silence inside.

Then Li Ya's voice came through, as cold as ice: "Let us out immediately."

Just as Xie Shao was about to say a few more polite words, he suddenly noticed that there was another person next to Lin Chen.

A woman, expressionless, with fire burning in her eyes—it was Liu Feifei!

Then the second, the third...

Li Ya, Su Yun, then Qin Yi, Li Shishi, Qin Lu, Jiang Yingyue, Jiang Yingxue... one after another, as if they grew out of thin air.

After they came out, they didn't say anything, but simply dispersed, naturally surrounding the Xie family members.

Only Lin Chen and Liu Feifei remained inside.

Anyone who tried to move was slapped back. Anyone who tried to resist was simply suppressed.

Most of the Xie family members were completely bewildered by this sudden counter-encirclement.

They were just thinking about how to deal with this arrogant outsider, and in the blink of an eye, they were the ones trapped.

However, the enemy's numbers are far inferior to theirs. They have at least tens of thousands of people here, while the enemy has only about a thousand. How dare they counter-encircle them?

Wang Xing stood to the side, his eyes practically bulging out of their sockets.

He rubbed his eyes hard, then rubbed them again. The person was still there; it wasn't a hallucination.

Where did these people come from?

Young Master Xie's face turned ashen as he looked at Liu Feifei, who was at the front of the crowd.

Of course he recognized her. Everyone at Moon Lake Villa knew the Liu family's big star. He hadn't expected this woman to still be alive, and it seemed... she was in cahoots with that guy surnamed Lin.

Moreover, the other party's bizarre appearance made them dare not make any rash moves.

Liu Feifei couldn't wait any longer. Her voice was filled with hatred as she asked Xie Zhihong, "Xie Zhihong, did you kill my mother?"

Xie Zhihong forced a smile, his expression stiff, and replied, "Little Feifei, you're still alive? I'm so happy, Brother Xie. Didn't Aunt and the others turn into zombies? How could I have killed them?"

Liu Feifei stared intently at him: "Bullshit! My mother didn't turn into a zombie at all."

Xie Zhihong's heart sank.

Why didn't we clean up the body properly back then? His smile faltered, his lips twitched, and his eyes began to dart to the sides.

Liu Feifei took a step forward: "I'll ask you one more time, did you kill my mother?"
