89: My father is the sect leader of the Xuanlei Sect. Who dares to touch me?
Inside the abandoned factory, it was dead silent.
The air was filled with a pungent mixture of dust, rust, and sweat, and the atmosphere was so heavy it felt like it could drip water.
Dozens of members of the Iron Wolf Gang were scattered about, gathered here.
Most of them were young men in their early twenties.
At this moment, their faces were etched with exhaustion, and their bodies bore varying degrees of injuries.
After all, they had just had a skirmish with a combat squad from the Spiritual Energy Bureau.
Being able to escape from that group of lunatics was already a stroke of luck amidst misfortune.
Wanting to come out unscathed was simply a fantasy.
Beside these Gang members, over a dozen ordinary people were tied up with ropes, curled up in the corner, their faces full of terror, their bodies trembling uncontrollably.
Their eyes were filled with despair and pleading.
These people were hostages that the Iron Wolf Gang had grabbed from the roadside to create chaos while being pursued by the Spiritual Energy Bureau.
It was precisely by using these hostages as human shields.
That they had successfully shaken off the pursuit and managed to hide in this abandoned factory.
Forcing the Spiritual Energy Bureau and the Public Security Bureau, who had surrounded them, to hesitate and not dare to storm in.
On a high platform in the factory sat a rusted iron chair, which, in this empty environment, gave the feeling of a dilapidated throne.
A young man dressed in trendy brands with a flamboyant style was sitting on it with an air of arrogance.
He was the leader of the Iron Wolf Gang, Zhou Ye.
Facing the desperate situation of being heavily surrounded outside, there was not a trace of panic on his face; instead, it revealed a morbid calmness that didn't match his age.
He even had the leisure to fiddle with a pure gold lighter in his hand, making crisp "click, click" sounds.
At this moment, a trusted subordinate with his arm wrapped in thick gauze finally couldn't suppress his inner fear, walked up, and spoke cautiously.
"Boss, the people from the Spiritual Energy Bureau and the Public Security Bureau have already surrounded the outside completely. What... what should we do next?"
His voice trembled.
"It seems we have nowhere left to run."
As soon as these words were spoken, the breathing of the other Gang members around them became rapid.
Everyone's gaze was fixed on Zhou Ye on the high platform.
They needed an answer, an answer that could put their minds at ease.
Hearing his subordinate's question, Zhou Ye finally stopped fiddling with the lighter.
He raised his head, a look of extreme contempt appearing on his face.
"What should we do?"
He scoffed, as if he had heard some huge joke.
"A mere Spiritual Energy Bureau, along with that bunch of useless Public Security Bureau, has scared you all like this?"
"What are you afraid of!"
Zhou Ye's voice suddenly rose, carrying an unquestionable arrogance.
"I haven't had enough fun yet!"
"Everyone, stop worrying. Even if the sky falls, my dad will hold it up."
"I have already sent him a message. When he arrives, let's see who in this Donghai City dares to touch a single finger of mine!"
As he spoke, he stood up, looking down at his subordinates with a condescending smile.
"Of course, you are all brothers who follow me."
"When the time comes, it won't be difficult for me to have my dad help you out as well."
"Rest assured, with me, Zhou Ye, around, you won't be short of benefits!"
These words were like throwing a piece of driftwood to a group of drowning people.
The originally panic-stricken members of the Iron Wolf Gang first looked at each other.
Then, the tension on their faces quickly faded, replaced by a sense of relief and arrogance of having survived a disaster.
That's right!
How could they have forgotten this!
Although they were currently surrounded by the Spiritual Energy Bureau and the Public Security Bureau, and the situation seemed extremely critical.
But with their boss here, things absolutely couldn't get that bad!
You have to know, their boss Zhou Ye was not some ordinary Gang leader!
He was the only son of the Sect Master of Xuan Lei Sect and the future Young Lord of the Mysterious Thunder Sect!
The Mysterious Thunder Sect was a top-tier spiritual energy Sect that ranked high throughout Donghai City.
Its influence was deeply rooted, and its network of relationships spread throughout the entire city.
Let alone a small Public Security Bureau.
Even the Spiritual Energy Bureau would have to be respectful upon seeing his dad!
Not to mention, their boss was the apple of the eye of the Sect Master of Xuan Lei Sect.
Who would dare to touch a single hair on his head?
That wouldn't just be slapping Zhou Ye in the face; it would be slapping the entire Mysterious Thunder Sect in the face!
Thinking of this, the atmosphere in the factory instantly reversed.
"Hahaha, exactly, the boss is the Young Lord of the Mysterious Thunder Sect, what exactly are we afraid of?"
"With the boss here, as long as we reveal the name of the Mysterious Thunder Sect, those grandsons from the Spiritual Energy Bureau will have to obediently let us go!"
"That's right, a mere Spiritual Energy Bureau dares to surround us? When the Sect Master arrives, we'll make them pay!"
"Exactly, a bunch of things that don't know what's good for them, daring to chase us? They really have a death wish!"
The discussions rose and fell, and the people who had just been full of dejection were now full of spirit again.
They kept flattering Zhou Ye, their words filled with mockery and disdain for the people outside.
The embarrassment of having been chased by the Spiritual Energy Bureau like rats just moments ago seemed to have vanished like smoke in the wind.
In their view, this crisis had already been resolved.
Next, it was just a matter of waiting for someone from the Sect to arrive, and then walking out swaggeringly.
However, before they could fantasize for too long.
Just at this moment.
"Bang—!!!"
Accompanied by a deafening loud noise.
The heavy iron door of the factory seemed to have been slammed into by a prehistoric beast.
The entire door panel buckled inward, and then, accompanied by the screeching sound of twisting metal, it crashed inward.
The huge sound and impact made the entire factory tremble.
The entire place instantly went dead silent.
Everyone was stunned and stood frozen in place by this sudden turn of events.
The grimaces on the faces of the Iron Wolf Gang members froze.
The calmness on Zhou Ye's face on the high platform finally disappeared, replaced by a look of astonishment.
Everyone's gaze was fixed intently on the doorway, which was now misshapen.
Amidst the swirling dust, a tall figure, silhouetted against the light, slowly walked in.
Seeing this, everyone on the scene was somewhat shocked.
They couldn't imagine that at this time, someone would actually break in single-handedly.
"Who is it!"
A Gang member closest to the door was the first to react, and he shouted, putting on a brave front.
"Are you fucking looking for death? Do you not know what place this is?"
However, just as his questioning voice fell.
Chen Nian just waved his hand lightly.
"Bang—!"
Accompanied by a muffled sound.
Before the surrounding people could react, the body of that Iron Wolf Gang member exploded directly.
His whole person instantly turned into a mist of blood.
A thick, nauseating smell of blood instantly spread out.
In an instant, the whole place was shocked, and everyone looked at this scene in disbelief.
"Wh... what the hell! He just waved his hand, and Old Wang actually died!"
"Impossible, what kind of power is this, this is too outrageous!"
"Monster, this guy must be a monster!"
For a time, an atmosphere of terror spread across the scene.
Everyone on the scene was shaking all over with shock, their faces full of terror.
However, Chen Nian's cold gaze swept across the scene and finally settled on Zhou Ye on the high platform.
He slowly opened his mouth, his voice not loud, but it clearly reached everyone's ears.
"The Spiritual Energy Bureau is handling a case. Everyone, line up and come out to die!"
