Bodyguard of the Goddess

Chapter 167 The Man of Revenge!

A two-story villa in the suburbs of Mingzhu. The house was dark as ink, except for a faint candlelight flickering in a bedroom on the second floor. It was so dark that it was as terrifying as hell. People dared not approach.

At nine o'clock in the evening, two cars drove slowly from the east and west respectively, and stopped at the door of the villa. Then, a middle-aged man got out of the car coming from the east. He was wearing a well-tailored suit and shiny leather shoes, like a social elite. He wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on his high nose bridge, highlighting his extraordinary temperament of gentleness and elegance.

This person was Li Mubai, the second son of the Zhao family, the Zhao family's military advisor who was highly favored by the fourth master Zhao, and the only Zhao family's adopted son who had never had a direct conflict with Xiao Zheng.

Speaking of which, on the first night after Zhao Qingyun returned to China, he fought with Xiao Zheng at the birthday banquet of the fourth master Zhao, and was defeated by Xiao Zheng in public. It can be said that he lost all his face and his spirit was greatly reduced. After that, he never appeared in the public eye again. He just accompanied Zhao Siye for dinner and tea every day, living a carefree but somewhat old-fashioned and boring life.

And Chen Chong, the eldest brother of the Zhao family, also had a head-on conflict with Xiao Zheng by chance, and was seriously injured by Xiao Zheng and hospitalized. He has not been discharged yet. And even if he recovers from his injuries, he will probably have sequelae. After all, Xiao Zheng was merciful for not beating him to death.

Except for Zhao Laosan who died early, Li Mubai, the remaining three sons of the Zhao family, was the only one who could live in peace with Xiao Zheng for the sake of face. Only he understood that if he had trouble with Xiao Zheng in front of Zhao Siye, he would not end well in the end.

Who made the old man like Xiao Zheng? Who made the old man want to choose him as the heir?

A trace of resentment flashed in Li Mubai's eyes, even vicious!

Why did the old man choose Xiao Zheng as the heir of the Zhao family? What's so good about him, Xiao Zheng? In terms of martial arts, he does have some good points, but does he rely on martial arts to take charge of the overall situation? It depends on wisdom!

Li Mubai has been fighting for the Zhao family for many years. As early as five years ago, his hair turned white. Now he has to dye his hair every once in a while, otherwise, the white hair that has invaded most of his head will come back like bamboo shoots after rain.

Bang!

Li Mubai had no expression on his face, but he slammed the car door hard to vent his anger.

When he got out of the car and walked towards the main entrance of the small western-style building, his sight slowly fell on the car hidden in the darkness and motionless. The car that arrived at the small western-style building at the same time as him.

Li Mubai knew that it must be him who showed up this time, and the other party would definitely not show up in such an occasion. It was not in line with his identity and position.

Creak.

Li Mubai pushed open the door of the villa, and felt a cold and rotten smell coming towards him, as if it was going to freeze him in this hot summer. It was chilling from the bottom of my heart.

The house was dark, but Li Mubai did not ask to turn on the lights. He knew that the people living in the villa were a group of men who were used to darkness and did not yearn for light. As a guest, he did not need the host to accommodate him. Even if he asked, the other party would definitely turn on the lights for him.

This is the main reason why Li Mubai can have a place in the Zhao family, which is full of talents. He is smart enough and willing to think from the perspective of others, even if in the end, all his calculations are for his own interests. But in the eyes of many people, he is still a good man in the Zhao family. The only existence that is not so bandit-like.

He slowly climbed to the second floor and walked to the only room with light by the faint candlelight. He did not knock on the door, because the owner of the room did not close the door, which meant that the other party welcomed him. But when he entered the room, he was still frightened by the layout of the room.

The two candles in the room were placed on a makeshift altar.

There were incense, chickens and ducks, and a black and white photo on the altar. A tall and straight young man with a buzz cut was staring at the photo calmly, his face was cold and grim. He exuded a strong sense of oppression.

Li Mubai did not know the man in the photo, but he believed that the young man had a great relationship with the man in the photo, otherwise he would not have offered photos and incense in this temporary residence.

"He is my brother."

The young man stared at the photo without looking away, and said in a steady tone: "My only brother."

Li Mubai was slightly stunned, not understanding why this young man who was well-known in the industry said these words that had nothing to do with the mission.

"How did he die?" As a courtesy, Li Mubai asked with concern.

"Killed by Xiao Zheng." A sharp look flashed in the young man's eyes. "Brutal cut throat."

"When did it happen?" Li Mubai asked in surprise.

He remembered that there was a kidnapping case before Xin Ao, and the criminal was shot dead on the spot because of the failed attempt to murder. Could it be that the murderer was Xiao Zheng?

"Just a few days ago." The young man lit a cigarette and took a deep breath. "He should have gone abroad with me. Even if he did nothing, he wouldn't have died so young."

"Why didn't he leave with you?" Li Mubai asked.

"He likes power, he has liked it since he was a child. He doesn't want to be displaced with me and live a precarious life. He yearns for a life of luxury and wants to become a respected successful person through his own efforts." The young man exhaled a puff of smoke and said calmly. "But he doesn't know that everyone's life is actually destined. He is an expert and a master in some aspects. But in other aspects, he may not even be as good as a rookie."

"That's why he was killed." The young man put out his cigarette.

"Is that why you want to kill Xiao Zheng?" Li Mubai asked.

"What else? For your one million dollars?" The young man turned slowly, his light gray eyes showing no emotion. "In many countries, my reward for a mission is five million."

Li Mubai said with shame: "Maybe in Mingzhu, we haven't regulated the market yet."

The young man didn't say much, but walked slowly to the sofa and sat down calmly: "Is everything arranged?"

"Yes. Action tonight. We will fully cooperate." Li Mubai said in detail. "After completing the mission, we will send you away overnight. There will be no worries."

"It seems that you don't understand our business." The young man shook his head lightly, his expression cold. "Before the mission is completed, we never consider retreat."

"Why?" Li Mubai is a man who does things in an organized manner. As the military advisor of the Zhao family, he has long been accustomed to calculating all possibilities and taking corresponding measures.

"With a retreat, you dare not rush forward. Only in desperate situations can people exert their greatest potential. Only by cutting off the retreat can you fight your way out. This is what I learned in the army. It is also the core idea of ​​my missions over the years." The young man said lightly.

Li Mubai nodded and agreed: "This idea is very good, maybe I can use it in the future."

"It will definitely be useful." The young man said slowly. "Maybe it will be useful soon."
