The black-clad bodyguards, who had been standing with their hands clasped in front of them and looking relatively relaxed, quietly released their hands.
As Tony finished speaking, an unimaginable eagerness and greed suddenly erupted in his gaze at Lin Wan.
Lu Zheng’s eyes narrowed, his expression serious, as he took a deep breath.
Lin Wan’s gaze was as sharp as a knife, her grip tightening. No one noticed that the pure steel dinner fork in her hand was already slightly deford.
Lin Wan looked at Lu Zheng, while Lu Zheng, expressionless, looked at Tony.
He truly hadn’t expected it—Tony’s acting skills were genuinely good. No, it wasn’t just Tony, but everyone on this island!
Well, so people had once shown flaws. Sotis it was a gloating look, sotis a sympathetic one, sotis completely indifferent.
However, those looks were fleeting, so Lu Zheng had not suspected Tony.
After all, he had saved Tony’s life!
Then Tony invited him to his private island to play.
The two had no conflicts of interest and no personal grievances.
Lu Zheng really couldn’t think of any reason why Tony would target him.
Now Lu Zheng understood...
To a wealthy magnate like Tony, he was just a small figure. Anything Tony wanted, he absolutely had to get, and as for himself, who was in his way, what was a life-saving grace?
It wasn’t a burden to him at all.
In that case... it seems even Long Xiaoyun could be considered as having a conscience...
"Because of Lin Wan." Lu Zheng said word by word.
Tony swallowed his saliva, took a deep breath, and revealed a slight, impeccably polite smile, "Yes."
"When I saw her beautiful and noble appearance and her leopard-like power in Hai City, I was deeply attracted," Tony said, "I swore at that ti that I would get her, let her be..."
"Enough!"
Lu Zheng interrupted Tony, suppressing the urge to act imdiately, frowned, and asked, "You really have so nerve. We’re both from Hua Country, and you dare to kill us?"
He didn’t bother ntioning the life-saving grace again; harping on it would just be insulting himself.
"No, no, no, you misunderstand, I won’t kill you directly," Tony said with a smile. "At least you’ll still live for a few days."
In his view, Lu Zheng and Lin Wan were trying to maintain their composure, relying on their country’s bluffing.
"Do you know how tortured I’ve been these two days? I will keep you alive, right in front of your eyes..."
Tony chuckled, interrupting himself, "As for Lin, in the basent of my castle, there’s a private palace where seven or eight girls as beautiful as you live. You will live there in the future, until I lose interest."
"In Europe, too many people disappear every year," Tony shrugged. "Italy also has many poor people and refugees. When the ti cos, I’ll throw your body into the slums, and no one will know what happened."
Tony winked at Lu Zheng, "Do you understand now?"
Lu Zheng nodded, "Understood."
In Europe, there’s no Skynet surveillance system, so if Tony casually fabricated so evidence, no one would suspect that the two of them had t their end at his hands.
"So, your private island appears prosperous on the surface, but in essence, it’s a Demon Cave," Lu Zheng said lightly.
"Correct answer, but no prize!"
Tony’s smile gradually beca perverse, and then, in Italian, he said, "Go! Be careful with them; they have good skills."
In the next mont, eight bodyguards rushed in all at once.
"I’ll handle this!" Lin Wan shouted softly, and the fork in her hand flew out with a "whoosh," stabbing into a bodyguard’s shoulder.
Then she sprang forward, landing a punch on the nearest bodyguard’s chest.
"Bang!"
The blood Qi surged, and the bodyguard flew out sideways like a cannonball, crashing into two other bodyguards and knocking all three over.
With a hand planted on the dining table, she kicked the last bodyguard on the left side flying, then spun around and kicked the two bodyguards on the right in the chest.
"Bang! Bang!"
The two at the back hurriedly dodged. Although they avoided being kicked, just as they regained their footing, they found Lin Wan already in front of them.
"Bang! Bang!"
Lin Wan, having cultivated Martial Artist’s Blood Qi, was incredibly mighty. Against ordinary people, she easily dispatched them one by one.
The two bodyguards who had just been knocked over on the left stood up, only to find the other six already lying on the ground, groaning.
Exchanging a glance, they didn’t dare to trouble Lin Wan again but hurriedly guarded Tony, watching Lin Wan with caution.
Lin Wan landed lightly, spat casually, then looked at Tony, her eyes full of disdain and contempt, "Just relying on these wastrels?"
As for Lu Zheng...
He remained seated the whole ti, watching Tony coldly, without moving a muscle.
Tony was dumbfounded; he had guessed that perhaps his eight bodyguards together couldn’t beat Lin Wan and Lu Zheng, after all, Lin Wan had said Lu Zheng was also a martial arts expert. But he never imagined that his eight bodyguards would be utterly powerless.
Still, Tony didn’t appear panicked. Instead, he smiled even more brightly, shaking his head repeatedly, even wagging his finger in a mocking gesture, "No, no, no, not relying on these wastrels, but rather..."
The door behind him opened again, and four more n in black suits rushed in, only this ti they each held a submachine gun, aiming at Lu Zheng and Lin Wan.
Lin Wan crouched down, reaching for the edge of the table to flip it over.
Lu Zheng placed a hand on hers to stop her.
Tony maintained his elegant gentlemanly deanor, but he drew a handgun from behind his waist, pointing it at Lu Zheng.
"Relying on this!"
"Reality isn’t a movie; no matter how fast or skilled you are, can you be faster than a bullet?" Tony said with a chuckle, "If you don’t want to die, then surrender obediently."
"Lu Zheng?" Lin Wan looked at Lu Zheng.
She had just cultivated Martial Dao Blood Qi and, though she’d tested its strength, wasn’t sure if it could stop bullets.
Lu Zheng nodded, signaling her to relax.
Then he looked at Tony, his expression calm, as if speaking to a friend, "Thank you for showing how malicious hearts in this world can be."
Tony shrugged, gracefully nodding in acknowledgnt, "No problem, you’re welco!"
Then Lu Zheng smiled, an elegant, friendly smile much like Tony’s, "As a return gift, let show you how powerful the most formidable people in this world can be."
"Oh?" A hint of doubt flashed in Tony’s eyes.
In the next mont, Lu Zheng flicked his fingers, and a red sliver the size of a fingernail flew out. Then it stretched with the wind, instantly transforming into a three-foot-long sword, moving as fast as lightning. In the blink of an eye, it circled around Tony and the bodyguards behind him.
"Clatter—"
The four submachine guns, along with the handgun in Tony’s hand, were all sliced in half.
Then the Red Jade Sword hovered in front of Tony, its tip just an inch from his forehead. The Sword Qi fluctuated, the sharp Sword Qi causing a faint pain in Tony’s brow center.
Tony’s body was rigid, but feeling the sting on his brow, he dared not move a muscle.
Lin Wan was dumbfounded, murmuring to herself, "I knew it..."
