Villain Is Bodyguard of Heroine's Poisonous Stepmother-Chapter 67: Ye Chen’s mercenary group is here

Chen Luos life here was very nourishing, as if he was in heaven, but the protagonist Ye Chen was unlucky and had constant troubles. But that was normal. If the protagonist had fewer challenges, then he was no longer a protagonist.

Who exactly are you? Ye Chen asked coldly, staring at the figure standing before him.

The one whos going to kill you, came the emotionless response.

Ye Chen instantly understood his opponent was an assassin. He didnt have time to speculate who sent the assassin, whether it was his former enemy or someone else. He quickly stepped back to avoid the gleaming blade aimed at him.

You want to kill me with this level of skill?

With lightning speed, Ye Chen grabbed the assassins wrist, and then with a slight force and a sickening crack, he snapped it., The black dagger held by the killer fell and was caught by Ye Chen with one hand.

How dare you come to kill me at your level? You are overestimating your own abilities, Ye Chen said, looking at the killer with a sneer.

Even though Ye Chen had been defeated several times by Chen Luo, his skills should not be underestimated.

The assassin reached behind, likely for a gun, but before he could aim, Ye Chen slashed his hand with the dagger. It was clear that there was a vast difference in their abilities. The assassin was like a little chicken in front of Ye Chen.

Speak, who sent you to kill me? Chen Luo or Luo Zixuan? fre ewebno vel.com

Ye Chen suspected these two, as his previous enemies were either eliminated or unaware of his whereabouts.

The assassin remained silent and raised his foot and kicked Ye Chen, revealing a blade hidden in his shoe. If he hit a vital part, Ye Chen would be killed with one blow from the blade.

Trivial tricks. Since you wont speak, theres no need for you to live, Ye Chen said as he swung his dagger, severing the leg of the assassin who tried to kick him, and then with a snap, he crushed the assassins throat, killing him.

After the deed, Ye Chen picked up his phone and called Xiao Uncle, Someone tried to kill me, but Ive dealt with it. Could you help me dispose of the body?

Knowing the complications that reporting to the police would bring, Ye Chen preferred a more discreet way of handling the situation.

Youre not hurt, are you? Xiao Yongqiang asked, more concerned about Ye Chens well-being than the body.

Im fine, but disposing of the body is troublesome, Ye Chen admitted.

Give me the address. Ill take care of it, Xiao Yongqiang assured him. With his influence in Magic City, disposing of a body wouldnt be a difficult task.

Ye Chen waited for a while, and soon Xiao Yongqiangs people rushed over and loaded the body in a garbage truck.

Its better not to let me find out who sent you, Ye Chen said, his eyes flashing coldly.

He suspected Luo Zixuan since Chen Luo, he reasons, would likely have confronted him personally instead of sending an assassin.

Although the assassin was swiftly dealt with, he was not weak in strength and was probably ranked high in the assassin world. Given the high cost of hiring such an assassin, Luo Zixuans wealth makes him a likely suspect. However, Ye Chen decided to wait for further investigation once his men arrived in Magic City.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye. During these three days, Xiao Qingxue was unexpectedly cooperative and even took the initiative when facing Chen Luo. She was so cooperative that Zhao Yingxuan found it boring.

The surveillance of Xiao Qingxue wasnt so strict, no longer confining her to the secret room. For Xiao Qingxue, this was a relief to stay far away from the place that gave her nightmares.

Yet, despite this relaxed surveillance, Xiao Qingxue still had no chance of escape, with the vigilant Chun Mei and Xia Lan guarding the villa.

Several foreigners have appeared around Ye Chen, reported Bai Meixiang to Chen Luo. Her people had noticed this development while keeping an eye on Ye Chen.

It looks like Ye Chens teammates are here, Chen Luo mused, recalling that this Soldier King was a renowned mercenary king.

He hadnt forgotten the details Xia Lan had uncovered about Ye Chen, including his leadership of the Blood Wolf Mercenary Group. Established only eight years prior, the group swiftly gained a formidable reputation. Despite its small size, each member was elite, on par with top special forces. Theyd helped several small countries win wars, and their leader, Ye Chen, was a legendary figure in the mercenary world.

Chen Luos intuition told him that Ye Chens formidable teammates were likely in Xia Country to deal with him.

The one who strikes first will gain the upper hand, those who strike later will suffer disaster.

Chen Luo called Bai Meixiang, Bai Meixiang, send someone to keep an eye on the foreigners around Ye Chen. I need to know their every move and how many there are.

Okay, Ill find out, Bai Meixiang responded, unable to refuse while under Chen Luos control.

Im waiting for good news, said Chen Luo.

He knew he must clip Ye Chens wings quickly before the situation turned in Ye Chens favor. If Bai Meixiang failed to gather the necessary information, Chen Luo would have to ask the system for help, which, although costly even for simple questions, might be necessary.

Meanwhile, Ye Chen spoke with Vincent, a hacker in the Blood Wolf Mercenary Group. Vincent, any progress on the investigation?

Boss, someone indeed placed a bounty on your life, but the website is tough to hack into, Vincent informed Ye Chen.

Try your best, but dont worry if its not possible, Ye Chen said.

However, he was determined to find the person who placed a bounty on him in the dark web, not wanting to constantly fend off assassins. Even though Ye Chen was not afraid of these hitmens tactics, he disliked the idea of being constantly targeted.

Ill try my best, Vincent assures him, getting to work on his computer.

After a while, Vincent stood up, having made a discovery, The dark webs security is tight. I only found out that the person who ordered the hit is in Magic City, but I couldnt identify who it is.

When Vincent tried to dig deeper, he was detected by the other partys hacker and had to abort his mission.

I think I have a good guess who it might be, Ye Chen mused, now more certain that Luo Zixuan was behind this.

Harvey, a member of the Blood Wolf Mercenary Group, chomped on a cigar and showed his yellow teeth in a cruel smile, Lets get revenge for the boss. Whoever dared to order a hit on him doesnt know whats coming.

Muer, another member of the group, added, Harvey, youd better put away your arrogance here. We dont have any weapons right now. Its very unsafe.

He then looked at Ye Chen, Boss, shouldnt you prepare some weapons for us? We dont even have a knife, let alone firearms. It feels unsafe even to sleep.

These mercenaries are all battle-hardened, usually sleeping with their weapons by their side. Without their weapons nearby, they feel uneasy even in sleep.

Ill find a way to get you some weapons. Youd better not act recklessly. Otherwise, or youll have me to answer to, and dont blame me for being rude to you, Ye Chen warned them.

He knew very well the personalities of his own people; none of them were the type to stay out of trouble. Without a warning, who knows what kind of big mess they might cause.
