After Being Cyber Bullied, She Reveals Her True Identity-Chapter 539 - 534: Ambitions of Various Families
Chapter 539: Chapter 534: Ambitions of Various Families
In the tense atmosphere, Shen Wenhong suddenly let out a low, mocking laugh.
Shen Yan looked at him indifferently.
Horiv’s eyes coldly lifted the equipment again, aiming at Shen Wenhong, "I want him dead now. He can’t be allowed to harm others any longer."
"You never cease to amaze, Mr. Pasino," Shen Yan said lightly, "I have my uses for him, so don’t ruin it."
Horiv’s face darkened, "Don’t think that just because you’re Qi Si’s woman you can..."
"Mr. Pasino," Shen Yan emphasized, "I don’t wish to repeat myself. I’m well aware of the reason you want him dead. Because he can’t be controlled, even if you possess the entire base, he’s of no use to you."
Horiv’s complexion suddenly changed, "I don’t know what you’re talking about."
"Then why didn’t you kill the other research doctors? Or even take them away secretly? Could it be that you’re not after this base?" Shen Yan said with a cold, mocking smile, "Don’t pretend to be so heartfelt. Maybe half of it is because of that person from the past, but the other half is still ambition."
Horiv’s gaze towards Shen Yan changed and changed again, with people from other forces standing behind, listening very clearly. Their looks towards Horiv started to alter as well.
Although Shen Yan was only pointing these words at Horiv, which of the cooperating forces wasn’t here with the intent to take ownership for themselves?
Shen Yan’s words were like a sharp knife, peeling away their true faces right in front of everyone.
Leaving them nowhere to hide.
Watching their faces change and change again, Shen Yan revealed a cold, mocking smile, then turned and flung Shen Wenhong forward. Unexpectedly, Shen Wenhong mimicked Shen Yan’s action, aiming a sure strike at Shen Yan.
Shen Yan struck back with her elbow with force.
"Crack!"
Shen Yan’s strike had lacked restraint, dislocating Shen Wenhong’s hand, but he quickly seized his own hand as he retreated and snapped it back in place.
Those around who witnessed this had a different look in their eyes.
Shen Wenhong really was cruel!
It made sense, though. If he wasn’t ruthless, how could he push his own daughter into such research?
A person devoid of conscience feels no pain.
Shen Yan watched him coldly.
"I can tell you now, if you kill this man for me, I can provide you with any research outcomes. Of course, that includes a series of new studies to follow. You’ve seen for yourselves how successful our research is. Don’t you want to become as powerful as the First Generation Geneticist? Or do you not desire wealth that’s within easy reach?"
Shen Wenhong stood there, attempting to use the resources and capabilities in his hands to turn these people to his side.
Horiv wasn’t swayed, but the others’ eyes flickered, already entertaining such thoughts.
Yes.
If they were to help Shen Wenhong instead, couldn’t they enjoy the benefits he offered? And the wealth he spoke of?
Or even the power they had always wanted!
Seeing the crowd’s wavering, Shen Yan sneered, "If you actually believe Shen Wenhong’s absurd lies, you had better prepare coffins for your entire family."
"Shen Yan, I know you’re capable, but if everyone presses against you, even the toughest can’t resist!" Then he raised his voice, "Doesn’t everyone want to have a try? This is your chance, miss it and it’ll be gone."
"Kill him, and then clean up this place, it all belongs to you. But if you switch sides to him, the outcome might not be so favorable. You can all try and see, whether it’s better to listen to him or to me."
Shen Yan stood in a relaxed pose, calmly watching the crowd.
A brief silence ensued, and the air became oppressively quiet.
Someone was even breathing heavily in an attempt to stay calm.
What was only a few dozen seconds of silence seemed like half a century had passed.
Then, after those few dozen seconds, Shen Yan suddenly stepped back.
"Boom!"
Blasted earth and trees shook violently towards everyone.
After a buzzing noise, everyone came to their senses, the sudden commotion awakening them from their disorganized thoughts.
They were fools to negotiate with someone like Shen Wenhong at that moment and even hesitated.
Isn’t that a sign of madness?
Don’t be deceived by Shen Wenhong’s scholarly appearance; the explosive power he demonstrated just now was considerable, and his mind worked faster than others.
Could they really compete with Shen Wenhong?
So, it was better to just dutifully follow the group!
Shen Wenhong failed to succeed, his eyes shadowed with frustration. Shen Yan mocked him without restraint, "Trying to turn a bunch of people who only use their fists for solving problems? You must be really sick in the head, not recognizing the situation."
Shen Wenhong stared at her coldly, "Just give me enough time, and I can persuade them."
"I’ve been giving you time to show how powerful you are, but now what?"
A bloodthirsty chill glided across Shen Yan’s eyes, and in Shen Wenhong’s gaze, she suddenly moved!
"Bang, bang, bang."
Watching Shen Yan dart about like an arrow, using the sparse tree leaves to hide her figure, she systematically eliminated hidden enemies one by one.
In just a few minutes, Shen Yan returned from a distance, clearly sporting more blood stains and the smell of gunpowder on her.
Just as she got close to Shen Wenhong, at the moment their eyes met, a phantom figure leaped from behind Shen Wenhong, unleashing a fierce attack on Shen Yan.
Barehanded, every strike targeted vital points.
Shen Yan’s eyes turned icy when she saw this person.
The two, without speaking, fought fiercely on the clearing, relying on their own skills to attack each other.
Shen Yan inflicted several wounds on her opponent and then retreated, avoiding the gunfire all around.
Seeing Shen Wenhong being helped up and crawling back into the bushes, Shen Yan wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and moved her somewhat numb foot.
After several encounters, her strength was also waning; she was no immortal, eventually weariness would set in.
Shen Yan didn’t chase forward but snatched up a sniper rifle and climbed higher.
Positioning herself, she targeted two figures sneaking across to the other side of the forest, the scope’s crosshairs lingering on one man’s head.
Sensing danger, he pulled Shen Wenhong behind a tree trunk. Shen Yan didn’t hurry to find a new angle, just kept watching the scene in the lens.
The moment he moved, she would take the long-range shot.
In the scope, suddenly several figures flashed into view, and the woman that appeared caught Shen Yan off guard.
Xiao Ling!
Xiao Ling was also unlucky, just as she was chasing someone over, she ran into the man escorting Shen Wenhong away.
As soon as Xiao Ling looked into the man’s eyes, her alarm bells rang loud!
Danger!
Though the man didn’t recognize Xiao Ling, he immediately attempted to grab her as a human shield.
Xiao Ling was quick to react, managing to wiggle free from his grip after a struggle and even struck the man forcefully twice.
He, however, sent her tumbling a good distance away with a kick.
Cursing, Xiao Ling realized the man’s responses were eerily quick, as he had managed to overpower her momentarily.
Shen Yan’s eyes narrowed!
She exuded a cold and deadly danger.
