145: I gave you a chance, but you dug a hole and buried yourself.

Inside the villa, the ceilings were magnificent, and the furniture was exquisite; it not only had luxurious restrooms and a spacious cinema, but also a complimentary restaurant.

“What a luxurious house,” Lu Xingye exclaimed.

Passing through a long corridor, one entered the living room. At this moment, Lu Xingye’s target, Zhao Hua, was pacing back and forth in the living room, looking somewhat restless.

Although the police investigation had passed, who could have reported him?

He had been meticulous, and no one else should have known.

But... how did that person in the shadows know?

Although Zhao Hua had temporarily escaped danger, he was still worried that the person behind it all would retaliate again.

“Zhao Hua.”

“Do you remember the person you ran over and killed? His bones were just buried in your backyard, still fresh.”

Lu Xingye looked at Zhao Hua and smiled faintly. Originally, he had planned to kill Zhao Hua as soon as he saw him, but now he had changed his mind.

He was going to kill him anyway, so he might as well make some use of him first.

“You...”

“Who are you?”

Zhao Hua was startled by the words, then abruptly turned his head. When he clearly saw the figure behind him, he was filled with shock.

“It’s you!”

“Kang Yuanxin.”

As the current head of Kangda Group and its former Vice General Manager, Zhao Hua naturally knew the key employees within the group very well.

Kang Yuanxin was a trusted subordinate of the Chairman.

Although Zhao Hua had seized Kangda Group through various means, what he feared most was the faction loyal to the Chairman.

After all, a starving camel is still bigger than a horse.

No one knew what trump cards the former Chairman had left behind... But now, when Zhao Hua saw Kang Yuanxin, he understood everything.

This was clearly someone sent by the former Chairman to stir up trouble.

“Speak.”

“How much money do you want? Whatever that old man Zhao gave you, I’ll give you double, as long as you hand over my weakness.”

“Ten billion,” Lu Xingye smiled slightly, casually naming a figure.

He intended to use this excuse to extort a large sum from Zhao Hua, which he could then use as startup capital for Zhao Yinyun to research Longevity medicine.

“Ten billion?”

“Why don’t you just...”

Before he could finish the word “rob,” Zhao Hua swallowed the rest of his sentence.

He knew that Lu Xingye held his weakness. If he angered him, he would gain nothing.

“No?”

“Then I’ll just have to hand you over to the police. Consider carefully whether your life is more important, or money.”

Lu Xingye said with a slight smile.

He was sure he had the other party cornered.

Extorting money was just a bonus.

You’ve already dug your own grave. Do you really think I’d let you continue living?

“Wait...” Zhao Hua said anxiously.

“Hmm?”

While Lu Xingye was momentarily distracted, Zhao Hua turned around, pulled out a rapid-fire revolver, and repeatedly pulled the trigger at Lu Xingye.

His aim was particularly sharp.

The bullets were aimed at Lu Xingye’s neck, forehead, chest, abdomen, heart… all vital spots.

He clearly intended to take Lu Xingye’s life.

Bang, bang, bang... Only after emptying a clip did Zhao Hua breathe a sigh of relief.

Ten consecutive shots hitting vital positions. Even a Great Immortal wouldn’t survive.

Only when Kang Yuanxin was dead could he continue to be the head of Kangda Group with peace of mind... Meanwhile, on the other side, Lu Xingye was slightly surprised.

He had never expected Zhao Hua to be so decisive; one moment they were talking amicably, the next he directly drew a gun to kill him.

If it were an ordinary person, they might really have fallen into his hands.

But... was Lu Xingye human?

In the [Longevity] movie world, he was merely a virtual projection, possessing absolute defense.

Nothing in the movie world could harm him.

That barrage of fatal bullets struck Lu Xingye.

Not only did he feel no pain, but he actually found it a bit exhilarating.

A tingly sensation, like a girl massaging him with soft hands—a feeling beyond words.

If he could, Lu Xingye truly wanted to shout to Zhao Hua, “Give me a few more bullets, don’t stop!”

“Very good.”

“Is this your attitude toward solving problems?”

Hearing Lu Xingye’s voice, Zhao Hua’s face changed dramatically. Reflexively, he raised the revolver in his right hand and began firing rapidly at Lu Xingye.

However, he had forgotten that the clip was empty.

What came out were only blanks.

Immediately after, Zhao Hua tremblingly reloaded and fired another volley of bullets at Lu Xingye.

The result was still the same.

Lu Xingye was as if he didn’t exist in this world; the bullets could not cause him any harm.

“This...”

“How is this possible?”

“Are you human or a ghost?”

Zhao Hua collapsed helplessly to the ground.

Facing an unkillable monster, he truly didn’t know what to do.

At this moment, Lu Xingye smiled faintly and suddenly rushed forward.

He picked up a knife and fork and plunged it sharply into Zhao Hua’s palm.

The blade pierced through the palm, blood flowing down the tip of the fork; the scene looked exceptionally cruel.

However, Lu Xingye had no mercy or softness.

In the movie world, he was equivalent to a reincarnator.

Have you ever seen a reincarnator afraid?

Just be reckless.

The most important thing is to clear the level successfully.

“You...”

Ten fingers connected to the heart.

A searing pain came, making Zhao Hua almost lose the ability to speak.

“Don’t you just want money?”

“I’ll give it...”

“You’ll give it?” Lu Xingye smiled faintly, then his cold voice came again.

“But it’s too late now.”

“Blame yourself for shooting at me just now.”

“You’ve successfully angered me.”

As he spoke, Lu Xingye suddenly pulled out the knife and fork from Zhao Hua’s right hand and, with a flick of his wrist, plunged it into Zhao Hua’s left palm.

Tear... The knife and fork tore through muscle, pierced bone... Blood flowed uncontrollably.

Now both hands were symmetrically injured.

“You’re a damn lunatic!”

“Lunatic...”

“Lunatic...”

Zhao Hua mumbled, his legs flailing helplessly on the ground, inching away from Lu Xingye.

It seemed he was facing not a person, but a man-eating demon that left no bones... After venting his frustration, Lu Xingye felt much better.

He didn’t know why, but a moment ago, he had felt a surge of aggression, wanting to retaliate against the other party fiercely.

Lu Xingye couldn’t understand why he had become so cold-blooded. He ultimately attributed the cause to NZT-48... After venting, Lu Xingye no longer troubled the other party.

He grabbed the other party’s finger and made him transfer money to his account.

After clearing Zhao Hua’s balance, Lu Xingye buried him in the pit. And this pit was dug by Zhao Hua himself. ^_^ (Tactical victory.)
