Chapter 439 Scared the Pants Off_1


Third update, looking for subscriptions and monthly tickets~~~

...

Dart Man's guesses couldn't be said to be definitely accurate, nor could they be said to be definitely inaccurate.

It wasn't as if he was blindly conjecturing; at the very least, Qin Fang's eyes indeed harbored murderous intent, and such a feeling had actually come to him the moment he was hit by that punch.

At the time, he thought Qin Fang would continue to strike at him, yet in the end he gave up, or perhaps it was to save up for this game of Russian Roulette!

"Five chambers, three bullets, a 60% chance of death, count on your luck!"

The words were the same old ones, spoken by the same person, still Qin Fang. The content had hardly changed at all, except that the original six chambers had been reduced to five, with the absent one naturally being the one used just before by the tattooed man.

"Come on..."

The tattooed man was already looking weak, his courage a bit smaller, but Dart Man obviously had a much stronger nerve than the tattooed man.

Though death was imminent, he still summoned all his strength to roar out those words.

"As you wish..."

Qin Fang just smiled and then, under the tense gaze of everyone around, slowly pulled the trigger.

In reality, all of those present were young people who had seen their share of overseas blockbusters, with some scenes being truly gory, even to the point of disgust.

But that was all in the movies, and no matter how bloody they were, people constantly reminded themselves that it wasn't real, not something to be believed.

Yet everything unfolding before their eyes was real, very real...

Pulling the trigger only takes a moment, but everyone felt it was excruciatingly slow, their breaths becoming stagnant.

Compared to the unanimous dread and despair of the people during the first shot, this time some believed there might be a blank, even though they didn't understand why they felt this way.

The trigger passed the critical point, and the gunshot was about to sound.

Click~~

A blank!

It was another blank.

Just when everyone thought Dart Man had no chance of survival, Qin Fang fired another blank.

Others might not fire two blanks in a row, but with Qin Fang, such a thing did happen.

The sound wasn't loud, and the music outside was very noisy, but somehow, everyone heard it very clearly.

The audience let out a long breath, and Dart Man nearly collapsed completely, slumping down the moment the sound rang out.

But not a single person mocked him, because there was someone even more disgraceful, even more embarrassing than him—Brother Long!

If Brother Long felt a bit smug before for betraying his two brothers for his own sake, his complexion turned exceedingly ugly when the first shot turned out to be a blank.

Even so, Brother Long could barely accept it, since it hadn't reached an utterly hopeless state, and there was still a very high chance of survival.

But this time, Brother Long was nearly desperate.

The reality was not merely unfavorable for him but extremely so; the worst scenario he had imagined still came to pass.

Four chambers, three bullets, a 75% chance of death—it was almost like his death sentence had been scheduled.

To flee?

That was the first thought that came to Brother Long's mind.

But looking around at his surroundings, this corner was already close to the solid wall, and on the other side were several people watching, with a barrier grating so high, at least 1.6 meters tall, that jumping over it was out of the question given his current condition.

There was only one way back...

Baldy Fatty might have been his loyal sidekick, his most trusted subordinate, but now things were different. Like the tattooed man and Dart Man, he loathed Brother Long for thinking not of unity or mutual support in the face of crisis but decisively betraying his own brothers to fight for his survival.

Baldy Fatty hadn't participated in the earlier fight, which was his lucky break, avoiding a beating and the calamity of playing Russian Roulette with a gun to his mouth.

But he had also witnessed Brother Long's act of betrayal, finding his behavior utterly contemptible and too ashamed to associate with him. Even if Brother Long managed to escape this time, Baldy Fatty wouldn't expect to follow by Brother Long's side anymore.

"Brother Long was definitely not escaping this time; he had to think of another way if he wanted to live."

"It's your turn now..."

Qin Fang didn't look at Dart Man anymore. Maybe he did hold some grudges against Dart Man because he had nearly died at his hand. However, the action just now was quite an eye-opener for Qin Fang, which temporarily made him overlook that slight bit of previous filth.

There were three of them, and both Tattoo Man and Dart Man had successfully crossed The Gates of Hell, preserving their precious lives. Then there was one person who hadn't played yet, and that was the Boss, Brother Long. Qin Fang immediately said to Brother Long with a smile.

That expression looked no matter how one saw it, it seemed like a weasel paying New Year's respects to a chicken, especially with that kind of smile.

"No, don't kill me... I'll give you money, a lot of money! As long as you don't kill me, I can give you anything..."

Brother Long was truly panicking, recklessly desperately speaking, and his words became cruel. Just to survive, he could indeed abandon even his life, his wealth, reputation, women... he could discard each and every one.

"What if I want your wife and daughter then?"

A hint of disdain appeared on Qin Fang's lips before he said with sarcasm.

Chu Yunxuan naturally heard that and looked strange. In the end, she couldn't help but utter the word "Beast," which laid a bit of foundation for what Qin Fang had just said.

Such a question was truly a slap in the face, and even Brother Long was stunned upon hearing this condition; frankly speaking, he had never considered this.

People of the Martial World abide by its rules; they might get beaten to death, killed, or poisoned, but it's rare for anyone to harm their wives and children. This is an unwritten law of the Martial World, something nobody dares to oppose.

The principle of "the sins of the father should not be visited upon the children" is a consistent principle of conduct and an ancient rule spanning thousands of years.

Brother Long was not short on women. Apart from his wife and kids at home, he had several mistresses outside. These mistresses were not exclusively his. If his backers needed them, he wouldn't hesitate to offer up his women.

So, he found it particularly hard to answer such a sharp question raised by Qin Fang.

"As long as you're willing to spare me, take my wife and daughter for all I care..."

I've seen beasts, but never such a beast. Even Qin Fang was shocked by his words. He hadn't really expected Brother Long to agree to his proposal.

"Scumbag!"

Qin Fang was angry too, disgusted by such a despicable level of scumminess that no one could tolerate. It was just too cruel. So Qin Fang immediately rushed towards him, prying open his fat mouth and stuffing the gun barrel inside.

"Don't kill me..."

Brother Long kept shouting in there, his voice full of unprecedented fear and shrillness, as if he had just lost his dear mother, his heart sheerly broken in desperation.

Even Tattoo Man and Dart Man, who were standing not far away and had just narrowly escaped disaster, felt some sympathy watching this. After all, they had all come up together, grinding through the times to gain the status and power they now had, with Brother Long as their Boss being the ultimate example.

They just hadn't expected him to betray them so resolutely and without hesitation, equating to a violation of these people's bottom line.

Chu Yunxuan had been a bit worried for Qin Fang earlier, since the front two had just been too lucky. But such luck may not continue indefinitely, and this shot might well take a life.

Of course, as a woman, she held no shred of goodwill towards scumbags like Brother Long who betrayed his brothers, wife, and daughter. If Qin Fang hadn't blocked her path, she really would have wanted to rush over and slap Brother Long several times, regardless of the fact that he had already been beaten to a pig's head by Qin Fang by then.

"Go to hell..."

Qin Fang seemed quite furious, no longer in the mood to dally with Brother Long, poised to pull the trigger at his mouth...

"Ah~~"

Brother Long was genuinely scared this time, emitting a deep roar. A peculiar sound came from somewhere, crackling strangely.

Soon enough, Qin Fang, who had especially keen senses, smelled an odd scent. To those present, the sound might not have been very clear, as the surrounding music was too loud, but that smell couldn't escape everyone's nose.

It couldn't be helped as the smell was just too overpowering, especially for someone with heightened senses like Qin Fang, whose intensity was several times clearer than others. Being the closest to Brother Long also meant the smell was the strongest...

"Shit, that's just fucking bad luck..."

Qin Fang frowned, finding it hard to imagine that Brother Long, a small-time mafia boss, could be scared shitless by a single gun in his hand.

Or to be more precise, it wasn't just peeing his pants, but a complete loss of all control, quite literally. Qin Fang had not expected Brother Long's psychological endurance to be so poor. Without much real fright, he had been scared into a shameful state.

If this had happened in the revolutionary years, with just a bit of mild coercion, he would likely have spilled everything, probably giving away all his ancestors' secrets as well.

"You're ruthless. Let's withdraw..."

With the situation having escalated to this point, Qin Fang no longer felt like staying. The space was too cramped, the odor too overwhelming, and he had no more interest in continuing the game. He immediately took Chu Yunxuan's hand and prepared to make their escape...(To be continued.
