Song Yun’s expression remained unchanged, but his mind was racing. Why were he and Chen Yang being blocked? There were two possibilities: either those people were after him, or they were after Chen Yang. However, Song Yun felt that something was off but couldn’t pinpoint what it was. Those people were certainly emanating a murderous aura, yet amidst it, Song Yun detected an unusual vibe as if the menace was somewhat superficial. What is a superficial murderous aura? Simply put, it looks intimidating, but there’s not much actual danger within. That’s what’s called superficial. Song Yun had encountered some experts before whose murderous aura, though not overwhelming, was chilling enough to make the hairs on one’s body stand up. But these people’s aura, while vast, seemed merely empty under Song Yun’s perception. ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by novᴇlfire.net In simple terms, these people didn’t really want to kill the two of them. So Song Yun was puzzled. Why did these people seem like they didn’t want to kill them, yet purposefully emitted such heavy menace? This was the part Song Yun couldn’t understand. As they hid here waiting for help, this question lingered in Song Yun’s mind. Until Chen Yang said those people were coming up. Song Yun’s eyes shifted as he thought of a possibility. Then, Song Yun squinted his eyes. Though he had faint suspicions, Song Yun didn’t rush to reveal his thoughts. "Brother Song, run!" Chen Yang said as he turned and ran to the side. Song Yun didn’t speak. Instead, he stood still and said, "Brother Chen, no problem. These people are just about twenty or so. Let me show you my skills, I’ll wipe them out in a minute." Chen Yang’s expression shifted subtly before he said, "Brother Song, they have guns!" "Guns are not a big deal." Song Yun said confidently, "I’ve taken down plenty with guns, as long as it’s not a machine gun aimed at me, it’s fine." "Brother Song, please don’t be rash. You’re a guest here in Guangzhou. If anything were to happen to you, I’d be in deep trouble!" Chen Yang tried to dissuade Song Yun from confronting those people, but Song Yun was more determined. These people were likely arranged by Chen Yang! As for why Chen Yang would do this, isn’t it easy? To frame someone! After such a pursuit, once Song Yun and the others escaped safely, they’d be filled with resentment and would surely investigate who was after them. Then, with a simple setup, Chen Yang could easily divert Song Yun’s attention to the Xingyi’an Company or the Money Group. If his thoughts were swayed like that, he might believe that the Xingyi’an Company or the Money Group was after him, thereby solidifying his allegiance to the Tripartite Corporation. If this happened, Chen Yang would certainly be pleased. Upon realizing this, Song Yun planned to fight those people and directly take out a few to see if Chen Yang would be upset or show any other reactions. However, Chen Yang’s current behavior was enough to confirm Song Yun’s suspicions. Consider this: what is the Crips’ strongest suit? Force! As the boss behind the Crips, would Chen Yang be frightened by twenty hooligans into running away? Certainly not. It’s not just about fear; it’s also about face. If word got out that the boss of the Crips, Chen Yang, was scared to act by twenty hooligans and had to flee, where would Chen Yang’s face go? Song Yun had sensed Chen Yang’s aura, which was very strong, at least on a par with Mao Shan. Would such a person be unable to deal with twenty hooligans? That would be as absurd as saying Song Yun was a little gay, completely ridiculous. Having figured this out, Song Yun no longer insisted on staying to take out those people, since Chen Yang’s goal was likely just to make him lean more towards the Tripartite Corporation rather than actually kill him. If he really wanted me dead, the best way for Chen Yang would be to ambush me with a hundred armed men here and mow me down. That might do it. Though Song Yun understood Chen Yang, he had no intention of taking out those chasing him, but he wasn’t about to let himself be easily set up either. Anyone who dared to plot against Song Yun must pay the price! Song Yun laughed and said, "Brother Chen, wait for me there, I’ll go have a few rounds with them and come back." After saying that, Song Yun ignored Chen Yang’s changing expression and charged towards the staircase. "Brother Song, slow down!" Chen Yang called out, feeling deeply annoyed. Why was Song Yun so impulsive? If he started fighting, those people were all his own men. If a few were taken out by Song Yun just like that, what should he do? Face-off with Song Yun or pretend not to know? If he confronted Song Yun, wouldn’t it be revealing these people were his? But if he pretended not to notice, how could he face his own brothers? Chen Yang was caught between a rock and a hard place. Meanwhile, Song Yun charged down the stairs without stopping for a moment. Then, the sounds of thuds and bangs echoed. Accompanied by these bangs were cries of agony. Within about ten seconds, Song Yun returned to the second floor, and with a relaxed air, he approached Chen Yang. Seeing Chen Yang’s odd expression, Song Yun smiled and said, "Brother Chen, those people were indeed nothing special. But since time was limited, I just played with them a bit. The almanac today said I shouldn’t see blood, so I didn’t kill anyone. Let’s go." Chen Yang, with a peculiar expression, said, "Alright, let’s go quickly!" The two quickly ran towards the other exit, and after running out of the abandoned building, they soon encountered support from the Crips. "Finally safe!" Chen Yang remarked with a sigh of relief. Song Yun, however, just chuckled and said, "Yes, truly a close call." "I’m really sorry for tonight, Brother Song." Chen Yang continued, "But those people earlier, I feel like I’ve seen them before." "Oh? You’ve seen them before?" Song Yun asked. "Yes, I think I’ve seen them, but I’m not very sure." Chen Yang replied. "Brother Chen, do you think those people were after me?" Song Yun asked with a playful smile. Chen Yang was secretly delighted but maintained a calm demeanor as he said, "That could indeed be a possibility."
