Chapter 295 - 284: Always Trying to Dominate Others; Without the Strength, You Just End Up Screwing Yourself

Chapter 295: Chapter 284: Always Trying to Dominate Others; Without the Strength, You Just End Up Screwing Yourself

The light of life in Li Gang’s eyes was growing dimmer and dimmer.

Just then, Mengde seemed to remember something.

"Oh, right."

"I forgot to tell you. Your son, Li Yu, is already dead."

Li Gang’s eyes widened.

"You..."

That was his only son!

The treasure he regarded as his second lifeblood.

Before the apocalypse, no matter what trouble his son got into, he would take care of it without a second thought.

This was a clear measure of how much he doted on his son.

Now, on his deathbed, he was hearing that his son had died before him.

He was, without a doubt, utterly furious.

He wished he could devour Mengde whole to avenge his son.

Even if he knew he couldn’t.

Mengde took it all in.

"I’m not finished talking..."

"It’s precisely because of your son that I came here."

Li Gang’s face instantly went slack with shock.

At that moment, only one thought ran through his mind.

’Fucking hell, that damn son of mine screwed me over!’

And who could blame him for thinking that way?

If it weren’t for that useless son of his, Li Yu, this powerhouse whose name he didn’t even know wouldn’t have shown up.

If this powerhouse hadn’t shown up, his attempt to encircle and eliminate Jiang Haibing and the other "traitors" wouldn’t have failed.

And he certainly wouldn’t be about to die at Mengde’s hands.

If he had known it would come to this, he would have just shot Li Yu onto the wall.

At this thought, Li Gang coughed up another mouthful of blood.

The Metal Giant he controlled collapsed to its knees with a great CRASH, azure plasma spewing from its seven orifices.

His eyes were wide open. He had clearly died with a grievance.

"What goes around, comes around!"

The lightning in Mengde’s palm flared violently.

His hands pierced through Li Gang’s skull.

He pulled out a dark golden crystal.

It was the Superpower Crystal Core, condensed from Li Gang’s Superpower Core.

Lingering arcs of electricity still danced across its surface.

"In your next life, remember to teach your son not to covet other people’s wives."

"Always trying to cuck others without the strength to back it up will only get your old man killed!"

A blinding pillar of lightning pierced the heavens and the earth.

Amidst the CRACKLE of thunder, Li Gang’s remains vaporized into metallic steam.

The only sound left on the entire battlefield was the successive gulps of swallowing.

Everyone was stunned into silence by this completely overwhelming display of power.

They had thought their director was invincible in East Sea City, but they never imagined someone even stronger existed!

Having watched the entire fight, they knew their director had been utterly dominated from start to finish.

But it wasn’t over yet.

The levitating fragments of weapons suddenly changed direction.

Just as Mengde was about to clean up all these people, Jiang Haibing staggered over, clutching his wound.

"Wait, Brother Mengde."

Mengde turned his head, a puzzled look on his face.

"Could you... leave the decision of their life and death to me?"

Jiang Haibing seemed a little embarrassed.

He felt as if he were trying to reap the rewards of someone else’s labor.

Mengde didn’t mind, though.

After a moment’s thought, he understood Jiang Haibing’s reasoning.

"Brother Bing, you want to take them under your wing."

Seeing that his intention had been exposed, Jiang Haibing wasn’t embarrassed.

"Yes. They were all my colleagues and comrades-in-arms before."

"I don’t want them all to die here."

"They haven’t fulfilled their potential yet, and they should atone for their sins against the people of East Sea City."

"Going forward, there are still many survivors we need to rescue. Keeping them alive will be useful."

"Besides... many of them were threatened by Li Gang into doing these things."

"They had no other choice."

After hearing Jiang Haibing’s explanation, the Public Security Bureau guards, who had been resigned to death just moments ago, all saw a glimmer of hope.

They turned their expectant gazes toward Mengde, the man who held their lives in his hands.

Mengde nodded. He didn’t really care either way.

"Alright."

"Then these men are all yours."

With a wave of his hand, the metal fragments that were about to kill the remaining Public Security Bureau guards changed their trajectory, instead pinning the men to the ruins.

As a series of pained screams rang out, Jiang Haibing, contrary to what one might expect, breathed a sigh of relief.

He knew the lives of these guards had been spared.

"Brother Mengde, don’t worry."

"I will definitely give you a proper accounting."

"Among them, anyone who has committed heinous crimes will not be spared by me."

Mengde smiled faintly.

Jiang Haibing had been the captain of the public security brigade for a long time; he had his own ability to judge character.

’I don’t need to get any more involved.’

After settling the fates of the Public Security Bureau guards, the honest and straightforward Jiang Haibing seemed even more embarrassed.

"Brother Mengde, this time..."

"Save your thanks for later."

Mengde suddenly turned his head to look at a certain spot in the ruins, a playful smile gracing his lips.

"It looks like your sister is in a hurry to see you."

Following his gaze, they saw Qin Yueran dashing over from the RV.

"Brother!!!"

The policewoman’s clothes didn’t quite fit her, but they couldn’t hide her breathtaking curves.

The dramatic rise and fall of her chest made Mengde, who was closest to her, unconsciously hold his breath.

’Damn, this policewoman is another stacked one!’

Jiang Haibing didn’t notice these details.

He just opened his arms and hugged his sister as she ran up to him.

"Brother, are you okay?"

Seeing her brother in such a state, Qin Yueran was on the verge of tears.

Jiang Haibing could only comfort his sister first.

"I’m fine."

"It’s just... luckily Brother Mengde arrived in time. Otherwise, your brother really would have..."

A wry smile covered Jiang Haibing’s face.

He didn’t finish the sentence, but Qin Yueran understood immediately.

"Mengde, thank you!"

[Ding! Congratulations, Host. Goddess Qin Yueran’s Affinity has increased by 10!]

[Current Affinity: 55!]

The smile on Mengde’s lips felt harder to suppress than the recoil of an AK.

’Jiang Haibing really is useful!’

’This Affinity is rising so fast.’

"I... I will definitely repay you properly."

Mengde had readily accepted Qin Yueran’s earlier thanks.

But why did he feel like the way this policewoman was looking at him was a little strange?

It was a look full of charm, as if she wanted to eat him alive.

’This woman... is a little dangerous...’

As her older brother, Jiang Haibing also seemed to have noticed what was on his sister’s mind.

He hadn’t expected that after just a few days of separation, his little sister would already belong to another man.

But considering Mengde had saved not only him but his sister as well...

He sighed silently to himself.

’Yueran’s all grown up now. She doesn’t need her big brother looking after her anymore.’

If it had been anyone else, Jiang Haibing would have definitely put them through a series of tests.

But when he thought about his brother-in-law being Brother Mengde...

’Forget it.’

’Better not to test him.’

’This battered body of mine really can’t take another beating.’

’What if Brother Mengde gets a little too rough?’

’How embarrassing would that be for me, his new big brother-in-law?’

And so, under Mengde’s bewildered gaze, he forced his body up and walked over to Mengde’s side.

He patted Mengde’s shoulder.

"Brother Mengde, I’m entrusting my sister to you."

Mengde stood there, his thoughts a chaotic mess in the wind.

’What in the world are you two siblings even talking about?’

’Is it really okay to be this easy to win over?’
