60: Atonement for your crimes? Your reward will be a quick and painless death.

Yin Tianchou's eyes were wide open, his pupils unfocused, as he stared blankly at the spot where the Cadres had been just moments ago.

It was empty, a scene of utter devastation.

Only a few charred marks on the floor remained as proof that they had ever existed.

Instant kill!

They didn't even have a chance to move before they were wiped out by a casual wave of the opponent's hand!

"Aaaaah——!"

Yin Tianchou's psychological defenses were completely shattered at this moment.

He broke down.

He jerked his head up, looking at the young man at the door, and let out a hysterical scream.

"Why!!"

"We have no grudges against each other! Why must you wipe us all out? Why!!"

Hearing this, Chen Nian smiled.

He walked slowly into the office, the smile on his face playful yet cruel.

"No grudges?"

"Didn't you, the Corpse Ghost Cult, keep clamoring that you would never let me go?"

A single sentence.

Left Yin Tianchou completely stunned.

"I... when did I ever say such a thing?"

When did he ever say such a thing?

Why couldn't he remember it?

Chen Nian walked up to him, looking down at him from above, his expression matter-of-fact.

"I don't care if you said it or not."

"In any case, it was someone from your Corpse Ghost Cult who said it."

"Since that's the case, it wouldn't be excessive for me to wipe out your entire Corpse Ghost Cult, right?"

Hearing this, Yin Tianchou was completely dumbfounded.

A lunatic!

This guy is a complete and utter lunatic!

Just because of something some random person said, he wants to destroy the entire Corpse Ghost Cult?

What an absurd, what an overbearing reason!

At this moment, a surge of monstrous hatred welled up in Yin Tianchou's heart.

But he didn't hate Chen Nian.

He hated that brainless, godforsaken idiot somewhere out there!

Which moron provoked such a god of slaughter?

Causing their entire cult to be implicated and buried with him!

Thinking of this, the last shred of pride and dignity in Yin Tianchou's heart was completely crushed.

He felt despair.

"Thump!"

He completely abandoned the dignity of the Corpse Ghost Cult leader, kneeling directly on the ground and kowtowing repeatedly to Chen Nian, tears and snot streaming down his face.

"My Lord! Spare me, My Lord!"

"That was all the ignorance of my subordinates, just empty talk, it has nothing to do with me!"

In order to survive, he even threw away his pride.

He suddenly remembered something, as if grabbing at the last straw, and eagerly pulled a specially made communicator from his embrace.

"My Lord! I report! I want to redeem myself!"

"The Garrison Squad of the Tianyun District Spiritual Energy Bureau, they colluded with us, we have been cooperating all along!"

"This communicator is full of records of my contact with their captain, I can testify, I can bear witness against them!"

Yin Tianchou held the communicator high, his face full of obsequiousness, humble to the extreme, terrified that if Chen Nian slapped him, he would be gone.

Chen Nian seemed truly interested.

He raised an eyebrow and took the communicator from Yin Tianchou's hand.

He casually clicked it open, checking the contents.

Sure enough, it was full of contact records between the Garrison Squad and Yin Tianchou.

Message after message, recording after recording, clearly documenting their sinful transactions.

The Garrison Squad leaked the Spiritual Energy Bureau's operational deployments to Tianqiong International Group.

Tianqiong International Group provided funds, resources, and convenience to the Garrison Squad.

They even "helped each other out," joining forces to eliminate some reporters and Security Officers who were investigating Tianqiong International Group.

The evidence was conclusive, ironclad proof.

Seeing this, a cruelly extreme smile curled at the corners of Chen Nian's mouth.

He nodded.

Those guys were indeed restless!

Seeing Chen Nian's reaction, Yin Tianchou let out a sigh of relief.

He thought Chen Nian had accepted his "surrender" and would spare him!

As long as he could survive, anything was fine!

However, what Chen Nian said next shattered all his illusions.

"Very good."

Chen Nian put away the communicator and looked at him again.

"Redeeming yourself, that's quite a contribution."

"I will allow you to die quickly."

The moment the words fell.

The ecstasy on Yin Tianchou's face instantly froze.

He only saw a palm, constantly enlarging in his field of vision.

Then—

"Slap."

A soft sound.

The Corpse Ghost Cult leader, who was begging for mercy on his knees just a moment ago, was directly slapped by Chen Nian into a brilliant mist of blood.

The whole scene was silent.

He was dead as dead could be.
