Urban Super Soldier King-Chapter 867: He Guisheng’s Path of Treason

"Guisheng, what are you up to?" Wang Hongbin suddenly stared at He Guisheng and asked.

He Guisheng trembled all over when he heard this. He quickly put away his phone, then chuckled awkwardly, "Just chatting with a girl, planning to ask her out."

After speaking, He Guisheng laughed a few times, but none of the people around responded to him. He could only force out a dry laugh before sitting down without saying another word.

"This morning, when we were getting beaten up, where were you?" Wang Hongbin asked.

He Guisheng thought for a moment before replying, "At that time, you immediately kicked me down, so I couldn’t make it over."

"Were you too scared to come out?" Wang Hongbin pressed.

He Guisheng’s mind raced rapidly as he thought about how to answer. The truth was, at that moment, he had indeed hidden himself.

Seeing He Guisheng hesitate to reply, Wang Hongbin continued, "Who were you chatting with just now? Let me see your phone."

"You wouldn’t be interested, boss. She’s not particularly good-looking," He Guisheng replied hurriedly.

"Show me," Wang Hongbin said coldly.

As the words left his mouth, the few people sitting in the car visibly shifted, making it clear they were all on guard against He Guisheng.

He Guisheng suddenly sensed a crisis. He began replaying the details of the entire situation in his mind. He’d been exceptionally cautious the whole time, leaving no loose ends—did Wang Hongbin somehow discover his intentions?

"Boss, I didn’t think you’d take interest in this sort of thing." Left with no other choice, He Guisheng reluctantly handed over the phone.

At that moment, one person directly snatched the phone away from He Guisheng.

"What are you doing?" He Guisheng snapped furiously.

He Guisheng was typically Wang Hongbin’s favorite henchman. Few dared provoke him. That someone now dared to seize his phone enraged him.

"Guisheng, sit still," Wang Hongbin suddenly ordered.

At that moment, a sinister thought flashed through He Guisheng’s mind—it seemed inevitable that Wang Hongbin had uncovered something.

"Boss, take a look." The man who had snatched the phone handed it directly to Wang Hongbin.

On the screen, the chat app displayed a message: "Move in half an hour. Strike hard, leave no loose ends."

When He Guisheng saw them reading his chat messages, his mind suddenly exploded like an audible buzz.

It had all been carefully planned, but he hadn’t yet made his move when the other side uncovered it.

Risk breeds fortune. Acting on impulse, He Guisheng kicked the man holding his phone aside, then whipped out a dagger and pressed it tightly against Wang Hongbin’s throat.

"Nobody move," He Guisheng threatened. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom

Wang Hongbin shuddered all over before glaring at the others, yelling, "Step back! Don’t do anything rash!"

The group hesitated, standing idle yet tense, seemingly ready to make a move.

Wang Hongbin himself was already covered in injuries. Lying there, he was utterly immobile.

"Guisheng, don’t act impulsively. Think about it—how have I treated you all this time?" Wang Hongbin pleaded.

He Guisheng sneered coldly, "Boss, you’ve been so good to me. That kick this morning—I remember it clearly. If there hadn’t been people below, I’d probably be crippled by now."

"It was all a misunderstanding. I lost control at the moment. It wasn’t aimed at you—it just got out of hand," Wang Hongbin stammered, his body trembling.

"Well, my hand’s getting out of hand now too. Sorry, boss." With cold resolve, He Guisheng pressed harder, leaving a bloody mark on Wang Hongbin’s neck.

"Wait, wait, Guisheng! Spare me! I’ll give you half—half of everything I have! Isn’t being boss what you want? I’ll let you have it," Wang Hongbin begged, terrified in the face of death.

"How did you know I betrayed you?" He Guisheng demanded curiously.

"It was Wang Li who told me. He said you’d turned against me. I didn’t believe him, but today turned into this misunderstanding. That bastard Wang Li stirred all this trouble—you let me go, and I’ll tear him apart!" Wang Hongbin begged desperately for his life, abandoning concern for Wang Li.

He Guisheng gritted his teeth at hearing this. He and Wang Li had already planned an ambush, agreeing to take Wang Hongbin down and claim control. If the plan succeeded, everything would be far simpler afterward.

Not only that—He Guisheng had already mustered trusted allies to act tonight. Unexpectedly, Wang Li had betrayed him, exposing their scheme.

If he hadn’t subdued Wang Hongbin now, he would’ve met his end unknowingly.

"Wang Li, you sneaky bastard," He Guisheng muttered bitterly.

Seizing the opening, Wang Hongbin shouted, "Guisheng, it’s all a misunderstanding! That damn Wang Li stirred trouble! Let me go—I’ll kill him in front of you."

"No need. I’ll take care of him myself." The chill in He Guisheng’s voice filled Wang Hongbin with a sense of despair.

"He Guisheng, don’t forget—it’s because of me you’ve risen to your current position! Without me, you’d still be nothing under Wang Li. You can’t afford to forget your debts! Even if you kill me here, do you really think you’ll walk out of this car alive?" Wang Hongbin’s urgency heightened as he failed to sway He Guisheng.

Blood streamed down Wang Hongbin’s neck, the sight gruesome and horrifying.

He Guisheng too harbored silent worries about this outcome. His gaze lifted to the others in the car. "Brothers, you all know what kind of person Wang Hongbin is. If I kill him today, join me, and I’ll treat you like my own family.

From now on, we’ll eat the finest meals and enjoy the best life. No more bending to Wang Hongbin’s tyrannical whims—what do you say?"

Hearing his plea, Wang Hongbin yelled, "Don’t listen to him! If he kills me, afterward he’ll—"

Before Wang Hongbin could finish, He Guisheng grabbed his head and twisted hard.

With a cry of pain, Wang Hongbin clamped his mouth shut.

The men seated in the car exchanged glances. Though they usually stuck close to Wang Hongbin,

his brutality—frequent punches and kicks—had long made them resent him deeply. They obeyed only out of fear.

Now that He Guisheng had stepped up, they lacked solid reasons to reject him—yet no one among them wanted to take the first step.

"Brothers, follow me, He Guisheng, and as long as I have food to eat, you’ll never go hungry," He Guisheng declared, seeing the answer reflected in their faces. His eyes went cold as his dagger sliced deeply into Wang Hongbin’s neck.

Blood sprayed from Wang Hongbin’s throat, his eyes glaring fiercely at He Guisheng before fading mid-stare, unable to utter another word.

He Guisheng remained alert, watching the others in the car, uncertain if they’d dare make a move.

Just then, one of the men tossed aside his own dagger and dropped to one knee.

"Boss, I’ll follow you," one of them declared.

Seeing his decisiveness, the rest quickly knelt in unison.

Relieved, He Guisheng stepped forward and helped each of them back on their feet...
