Stuck in a Chinese novel

Chapter 245: Mercy



A little note before we begin.

A lot of you have been saying that the MC and the previous host combination isn't a good thing and many have expressed their dislike.

To them, and everyone as well, I would like to say that that is a major loophole that will benefit Wei Jun in the future. Just like how he uses most of the things around him, he will use that point to his own advantage as well.

Still, I respect your wishes and if you want to stop this novel, you have no complaint from me.

For those who haven't, Enjoy!!

"Give me the video file," Yi Rang said, her voice overbearing and without a hint of anxiety. She didn't look like a woman who was being blackmailed currently. Instead, she gave off a feeling as if she was in complete control of the situation.

She wasn't even attempting to hide it to confuse her opponent which quite frankly, to Wei Jun, was a foolish thing to do.

Yi Rang threw a bag a little away from her and said, "This is the money you asked for."

In his biker outfit, Wei Jun knelt down and checked the bag. It was indeed filled with money but there was a slight addition that was hidden at the bottom of the bag, underneath the money so it was difficult to spot.

Yi Rang held her breath when the biker was checking the bag but once he closed it, she only then settled down. The biker stood up and stepped back a bit. Once he was at a considerable distance, he threw a flash drive at Yi Rang which she was easily able to catch.

"How do I know this is the only copy?" Yi Rang asked. The biker remained silent to that.

After a few minutes of stifling silence, the biker spoke, his voice a little more strange than a normal human, "Didn't you take measures to make sure the video never gets out?"

"What?" Yi Rang was confused, or at least she appeared confused while inwardly, she was surprised.

"I can hear the ticking inside." The biker raised the bag and said. Yi Rang chuckled at that response and said, "Then you shouldn't have done that."

"Doesn't it make you curious why I did it even when I knew?" Wei Jun asked a question that made sense and even Yi Rang was confused by that.

'No, he has no way of doing that,' Yi Rang said as she pulled out the detonator and almost pressed the button when she saw the bag in the biker's hand disappear. Just as she pressed it, nothing occurred. Nothing happened so she pressed it again and again and again but the result was the same every time.

On the other side, Wei Jun was also relieved to see that the bomb didn't explode in his inventory. Once again he was made aware that the inventory wasn't something as simple as storage. There seemed to be more to it depending on how it was used just like how he used it to store the debris on top of him in the bumblebee gate.

Since the bomb was out of the remote control's coverage, the bomb didn't explode. Wei Jun turned to look at the panicking Yi Rang who looked back at him, her gaze a little tense but it was soon to return to normal.

With a smirk on her face, she said, "You didn't actually think that was my only backup plan, did you?"

The biker didn't do anything. He didn't move, he didn't speak. He didn't do anything at all and once again, after a few minutes of silence, he said, "You mean the thirty or so guards you brought along?"

Yi Rang could tell what that meant. That meant that the biker himself was a cultivator who could tell if there were some cultivators some distance away or not.

"Knowing that, you still stalled? Thanks for helping me." Yi Rang said.

"Doesn't it make you confused why I waited even when I knew they were close by? Why did I give them enough time to get here?" Wei Jun once again made a valid question to which, Yi Rang once again had no answer.

The biker intentionally waited for a few minutes before he answered, giving Yi Rang's security team enough time to get there. If he was a cultivator, that was enough time to run away or harm her but he did no such thing which didn't make sense in the least.

"The answer to your question is very simple," The biker spoke as if he could read her mind, "Because that's the fastest way of growing stats."

"Director!" The head guard yelled as he landed just behind Yi Rang. He was shortly followed by about thirty men, all exuding a considerable amount of pressure from their beings.

In response to that, the biker remained silent and stood still in his place. This unsettled Yi Rang who said, "Make sure you don't let your guard down. There's something off about him."

The head guard, who could sense the power of a Qi manifestation realm cultivator master from the biker, was a little confused by that set of instructions but he didn't say anything.

He just nodded and said, "You don't have to worry, director. I will bring him to you soon enough."

The biker didn't move from his place. As for the head guard, he began to walk in the biker's direction while emitting a great deal of Qi. He was at the middle stage of the Qi manifestation realm, just one stage higher than Wei Jun but his control over Qi was mediocre at best.

It made sense since there was no way a business company that had little to no contact with the martial world to have so many experts. It made sense that they were all those the army or the sects didn't need anymore.

Wei Jun looked at the head guard from underneath his helmet and once he was right in front of him, the head guard said like a cliché villain, "Let's see who you are underneath."

Wei Jun didn't want to extend this issue than he already had.

[Skill 'Unknown' has been activated]

[Death Qi has been activated]

[All skills activated by Death Qi have a double effect]

[Skill 'Qi empowerment' has been activated]

[All skills +80]

Without any warning, Wei Jun's figure blurred and he appeared in front of Yi Rang, with something in his left hand. As she saw what it was, her soul left her body.

It was the head of the head guard and the head guard body hadn't even fallen yet due to the lack of a head.

Wei Jun didn't stop. He dropped the head in Li Rang's feet and disappeared from his spot once again. Before the thirty or so guards could even follow him with their eyes, they were all already dead.

Wei Jun stopped. In just thirty seconds, the fight had ended without even a single resistance from anyone. As Wei Jun had thought, the Death Qi granted him the option of ignoring the Qi barrier of a person, making it easier to kill them.

Wei Jun calmly turned to the frozen Yi Rang and slowly made his way to her. His soft but clear steps woke her up from her stunned state and she hurriedly turned to her car but just as she did, something pierced her hand accompanied by the sound of a boom.

Wei Jun shot her in the hand as she just touched the car door.

"Aahhhh!!!" A scream that came from the soul. Wei Jun could tell Yi Rang had never felt pain before. Now that she was feeling it, it was much more than it should have been.

He stopped by her side and waited.

Waited for her to recover and once she did, he grabbed her by her hair and forcefully turned his face to her, "What is the code to your Swiss vault?"

Yi Rang's eyes went wide as she heard something only she was supposed to know.

"How… How do you know that?" She asked.

Wei Jun didn't reply and grabbed her hand, intertwining her fingers with his own, he simply clenched his fist, breaking Yi Rang's fingers in the process.

Another bout of screaming later, Wei Jun asked, "What is the code?"

"If I tell you, you will kill me," Yi Rang said.

"Why would you stick to your wealth? It's not yours anyway so just give it up," Wei Jun said.

"It's mine!!! It was always mine!!! That bit*h just happened to be born a few years sooner!!!" Yi Rang yelled as she clearly understood what the biker's words meant.

"But you still took it from her, didn't you?" Wei Jun asked, "Including everything she cherished. Her husband as well."

"Huhu," Yi Rang weakly chuckled, "Are you feeling sympathy for her?"

"Sympathy?" Wei Jun said before he asked, "Why would I harbor a feeling that's nothing but a weakness?"

He yanked Yi Rang's face and brought it closer to his own helmet-covered face, "It's mercy. I'm allowing her to live a full quiet life. Nothing less, nothing more."

He then turned her face around, facing the ground, he said, "No mercy for you."

Slam!!!

Slam!!!

Slam!!!

After about ten soft slams, Yi Rang was dead. Her face had caved in slightly, apart from being disfigured but if one looked closely one could still tell it was her.

Wei Jun turned her around. Pulled a scalpel from his inventory and cut Yi Rang's eyes out. Once he was done with that, he stood up and placed his foot on her neck.

He applied only a little pressure and his foot went through her neck, separating her head from her body. Wei Jun stored the body in his inventory and picked up the head.

He walked to Yi Rang's car and placed the head on top of it vertically, settling it so it wouldn't fall.

He crouched a little so he was at eye level with her and said, "I never needed the code."

And with that, he walked away, leaving a lot of bodies behind.
