Chapter 318 Who is the Prey? (Please Subscribe)

"A fantastic piece of news?"

"That's right!"

The third brother's body was trembling. He pointed at the tens of thousands of people in front of him and said, "These ordinary people, if they were other awakened individuals, would be grateful if they could stay outside the city. But that Chairman Li is willing to let them move into the city, and for free. What does that mean?"

"What does this mean?"

Xie Ming asked instinctively.

"This shows that Chairman Li is not as difficult to deal with as we thought. In fact, he is a person with compassion for the weak."

"Compassion?"

"Yes," the third brother looked at the city wall, his eyes filled with enthusiasm, and said, "I have always felt that the biggest difference between humans and ferocious beasts is that humans have empathy and can always have compassion and pity for the weak. No matter how strong a person is, if he loses empathy, even if he becomes invincible, he is not a human being, but a beast in human skin."

The others fell silent.

Because they found that their experiences over the years seemed to have robbed them of empathy.

Seeing ordinary people die at the hands of ferocious beasts, they felt no emotion whatsoever; in fact, they even felt a little amused.

See? This is what happens to the weak. Blame it on your own weakness. If you were strong, would you have been killed?

The closest one, just now.

Hearing what Hua Jun said, they all wondered if the people from the Anshan City Association had gone mad.

Why bother being good to these ordinary people?

But the third brother's words made them think of some things.

Ten years ago, they were no different from ordinary people, working day and night to make a living.

They were just lucky enough to awaken their superpowers and become Awakeners.

Xie Ming took a deep breath and said, "Third brother, you're right. Over the years, I seem to have forgotten my roots."

He gave a wry smile and said, "They look at ordinary people like they're ants, but in reality, they're just like us, they're all human beings."

Yes, yes.

The three men with bushy beards also blushed.

The third brother smiled and said, "It's alright, eldest brother, it's not too late. Besides, joining Chairman Li might really be the right choice for us."

The group exchanged glances and nodded emphatically.

Indeed, if Chairman Li treats ordinary people so well, then if these few people can prove their loyalty, he will certainly not treat them unfairly.

"Brother, let's not delay. Let's call Yan Hao and tell him we've arrived," the bearded man said impatiently.

"That's right. They've already done more than enough by taking the land from him with money. But this guy is still not satisfied and wants to use us to deal with Chairman Li. He really doesn't know what's good for him. Since that's the case, don't blame us for being ruthless."

"Hmph, that guy brought it on himself, he has no one else to blame but himself."

"Shhh."

Xie Ming took out his phone and gestured for the others to be quiet.

The group immediately understood and fell silent.

Xie Ming found Yan Ming's phone number and dialed it. The call rang once before being answered.

"Hey? Brother Xie, you've arrived?"

Yan Hao's urgent voice rang out.

"Um."

Xie Ming said in a deep voice, "I'm outside the city. Where are you?"

"I'm still in the same place. If you don't remember, Brother Xie, I'll come down and get you," Yan Hao said.

"No need, my memory isn't that bad."

"well,"

Yan Hao was extremely excited, nodding his head like a chicken pecking at rice. "Brother Xie, be careful when you come up, don't let anyone see you, otherwise it will be easy for word to leak out. When you get to the door, send me a message, and I will meet you at the door."

"OK."

Xie Ming smirked.

"Then I'll hang up now. We can discuss the details when we meet."

"well."

Xie Ming hung up the phone.

"Big brother, how is it?" the woman asked.

"He'll be waiting for us at our old place. Is all the recording equipment ready?"

The third brother made an OK sign.

"Alright, let's not delay, let's go in now and avoid people, otherwise we'll lose everything if we're discovered."

"clear."

Soon, the group arrived at Yan Hao's villa and successfully reunited.

The group went up to the second floor and sat down in the room.

"Yan Hao, long time no see. How have you been these past few years?"

Xie Ming looked the other person up and down, and said with a half-smile.

The bearded man and the others looked at him with a hint of amusement.

Yan Hao felt a little uncomfortable under their gazes, so he quickly stood up, poured tea for them, and said, "It's been a long time. Brother Xie looks even more energetic than before."

"Really? Then you should thank your kind brother!"

Xie Ming sneered.

Thinking of how Yan Ming had blinded him in one eye, and now this guy was plotting to profit from the conflict between the two, he wished he could just kill him.

"Brother Xie, that's all in the past. My brother is already dead. Let's not talk about these things anymore, okay?" Yan Hao said awkwardly.

"OK."

Xie Ming glanced at him, then said, "Let's get down to business."

"Um!"

Upon hearing this, Yan Ming immediately perked up. He stood up, walked to the window, drew back the curtains, pointed to the crowd of people carrying luggage on the street outside, and said, "Brother Xie, you must have seen it when you came here before, right? That guy surnamed Li is quite the good guy, using our land to take in those lowly people from outside the city. He really knows how to win people's hearts."

Little did he know that as he said this, a flash of anger appeared in the eyes of the people behind him.

"Thank you, Brother Xie."

Yan Hao turned around, his face filled with resentment, and said, "As long as we cooperate and kill that guy surnamed Li, along with Hua Jun and his accomplices, Anshan City will be yours to call the shots! Even if you try to harm me afterward, I will have no regrets!"

"Brother Yan seems to be truly enraged."

Xie Ming toyed with the teacup in front of him and said, "Alright, now that we're here, we should naturally lend Brother Yan a hand; otherwise, wouldn't we have come all this way for nothing?"

"Big brother is right."

"It's understandable that Brother Yan would feel such resentment after his family business was destroyed."

"I wonder how Brother Yan plans to deal with Chairman Li and his accomplices?" the third brother said with a smile.

Everyone exchanged glances, and everything was understood without a word.

"I was just about to speak. After I finish, if you feel there's anything that's not good enough, please feel free to tell me, and we'll work together to find a solution."

"OK."

Xie Ming readily agreed.

As Yan Hao paced back and forth, he said, "If we go straight in, some of us might get hurt. There's no need for that, because the enemy is in the open while we are in the shadows. We can defeat them one by one."

"Oh, so how about we take them down one by one?"

"I'll contact Hua Jun later and lure them here. Brother Xie, you guys can lie in ambush around here. Then I'll excuse myself to use the restroom. At that time, Brother Xie, you guys can make your move. Although Hua Jun is a C-level Awakener, he's not very strong. The other three or four are all D-level. You can kill them without breaking a sweat."

"After killing them, we'll head to the Awakened Association, find that guy surnamed Li, and kill him! Hmph, even if that guy is powerful, so what? Can he be a match for so many of us?"

"Brother Xie, what do you think of my battle plan? Is there anything that needs improvement?" Yan Hao asked with a fawning smile.

He had thought about this idea for a long time before coming up with it, and he felt very good about it.

"sharp."

Xie Ming gave a thumbs up and said, "That Hua Jun probably never dreamed that there would be an ambush waiting for him here. But I have one doubt: are you sure you have a way to lure him here?"

"Brother Xie, you can rest assured about that."

Yan Hao said smugly, "I'm confident that once I've lured them over, it'll be up to you guys, Brother Xie, to show what you've got."

Upon hearing this, Xie Ming glanced at the third brother.

The latter nodded.

He had originally planned to capture Yan Hao after recording the conversation, but now it seemed more appropriate to wait until Hua Jun was tricked into coming over before they turned against him.

"it is good."

Xie Ming slapped his thigh and said, "Brother Yan, don't worry. As long as you have a way to lure those people over, we can wipe them out in one fell swoop, and there will be no leaks."

After killing Hua Jun and the others, we'll head together to the Awakened Ones Association to settle accounts with that guy surnamed Li.

"Very good!"

Yan Hao listened with great interest, wishing he could rush to the Awakeners Association right now.

"By the way, Brother Xie, I have one more small request. If you can do it, I will be extremely grateful."

"No matter what, we'll do it for you as long as it's within our power," Xie Ming said with a smile. Since they were all just empty promises anyway, agreeing to them wouldn't hurt him, and it would only lower the other party's guard.

"That guy surnamed Li, and Hua Jun, I hope you gentlemen can spare at least one of them, because letting them die like this would be too easy for them."

Yan Ming gritted his teeth and said.

The group exchanged glances, both amused and exasperated.

This Yan Ming really thinks highly of them!

They can even say things like "leave them alive."

If he had just watched the video about that Chairman Li, he wouldn't have said such a thing. Well, maybe not, since it wasn't him who did it.

"Ahem, Brother Xie, I know this is a difficult task, so it would be best if you could do it, but it's okay if you can't," Yan Hao quickly said, afraid that the other party might be even slightly dissatisfied and not want to continue cooperating with him.

"Brother Yan, let's do our best."

Xie Mingmian found it difficult to do so.

"Okay, okay."

Yan Hao nodded with a smile, "Once we kill those two, Anshan City will be under your control, Brother Xie. I'd like to congratulate you in advance."

"It's not even close to being settled yet, so let's not talk about these unrelated things."

The third brother waved his hand and said, "Why don't you call Hua Jun over first? We don't want to fight two C-level Awakeners and a large group of D-level Awakeners at the same time."

"Alright, alright, I'll call Hua Jun right away. Don't worry, everyone, he'll definitely come."

Yan Hao laughed smugly.

He could almost see Hua Jun kneeling on the ground, his face bruised and swollen, begging for mercy.

Xie Ming and the others laughed as well.

This Yan Hao really looks like a clown.

Laugh all you want, but he won't be able to laugh for long.
