Chapter 460 Faith
Scarlet blood flowed along the cut torso, staining the expensive velvet carpet red. Zong Wen could clearly feel his vitality draining away, but he had no way to deal with it...
Liu Qingyan's fingertips touched the back of his hand and slowly moved up along the elbow. The skin on his arm began to fall off silkily, revealing the bloody palm and forearm muscles, as if a flesh-colored garment was being taken off.
Zong Wen's painful face was completely bloodless. This was undoubtedly a skinning torture. Seeing his skin and flesh being peeled off, this visually impactful scene was madly attacking his mind. He spoke with difficulty and hoarseness: "Let... me go..." "I... will give you freedom... please..." "You can... anything you want..." Liu Qingyan's fingertips brushed across his shoulders, as if she was carefully carving a bloody work of art. Facing Zong Wen's plea, she shook her head slightly: "No." "Why... why..." "Because he doesn't like you." Liu Qingyan said softly, "So, you must die." "He...?" "He has left the main city. If I kill you now, he won't be implicated... When he comes back next time, he won't need to see your disgusting face anymore." Liu Qingyan loosened her fingertips. At this moment, most of Zong Wen's skin had been peeled off, leaving only an old face covering his bloody body, which was eerie and eerie on the bright red carpet. He seemed to have thought of something, and spoke word by word:
"Special... envoy??"
Zong Wen saw Liu Qingyan's hand reaching for his face, and his desire to survive reached its peak. He begged with all his might:
"Why... do you want to help him kill me... He clearly... doesn't want to pay attention to you... and me! I... have brought you to the top of the Red Dust Main City... I am your benefactor!"
"People like you won't understand..."
Liu Qingyan's fingertips gently fell on Zong Wen's horrified eyebrows, and with a casual stroke, a wrinkled face was peeled off and fell lightly on the blood-colored carpet.
Zong Wen, with no skin left on his body, knelt in a pool of blood, the dim candlelight swayed in the room, and the mirror opposite, which was usually used to touch up the girls' makeup, clearly reflected his appearance... At this moment, he was bloody, his face was bloody, and no beauty, ugliness, age or youngness could be seen, only endless fear.
The black dress slowly stood up, the hem of the skirt was stained with blood, dripping blood down.
Liu Qingyan calmly looked down at Zong Wen who had turned into a bloody man, strangled his throat with one hand, and slowly spoke in those terrified and desperate eyes:
"He is not only my benefactor..."
"He gave me salvation and faith. He is the only red-clothed god in this dilapidated ruin of mine."
Crack!
As Liu Qingyan's voice fell, Zong Wen's terrified head was instantly broken off.
As Liu Qingyan released his bloody palm, Zong Wen's head drooped, like a sinner kneeling in a sea of blood to repent, and there was no breath at all.
He never thought that after so many years in the main city of Hongchen, he would die in the private room where he played with his collections, and died in front of that soft and comfortable bed... He wanted to ravage a beautiful rose, but his throat was cut by the sharp thorns.
The dim candlelight flickered in the room. The girl's face was expressionless. She stopped to look at Zong Wen in the pool of blood for a long time, then slowly turned her head and looked in the direction of the gate of the Red Dust Main City...
Her cinnabar-like red lips slightly raised, her watery eyes stared at nothingness, she lifted her skirt with both hands, knelt on one knee in the direction where Chen Ling left,
like a devout believer.
The black skirt bloomed in the bloody soil like a cold rose. She opened her lips and murmured to herself:
"I, Liu Qingyan, bring a small gift... respectfully send Master Chen Ling out of the city."
-----------------
[Audience Expectation Value +3]
[Current Expectation Value: 78%]
Two lines of prompts flashed before Chen Ling's eyes. He was slightly stunned, and his black windbreaker stopped at the edge of the Red Dust Realm.
Chen Ling looked back and looked in the direction of the Red Dust Main City. At this moment, it had been a long time since he left the main city, and the outline of the main city was blurred... But in this dark night, it seemed that something was happening.
"The expectation value has increased again... What's going on?" Chen Ling muttered to himself.
The expectation value has increased for no reason, and it must be bad news. Chen Ling carefully reviewed what happened recently in his mind, but he still didn't expect any hidden dangers...
"Ah?"
In order to avoid being too conspicuous, Chen Ling covered the piled silver bill boxes with a layer of black cloth. At this moment, the clown sat on it, shaking his two short legs and looking at Chen Ling in confusion, as if asking why he didn't leave.
"...Nothing." Chen Ling shook his head and continued to move forward.
The current increase in the expectation value is mostly related to the situation in the main city. Chen Ling thought about it, the fight between the Beidou Consortium and the Huadu Consortium, the Jian Changsheng duo, and Liu Qingyan, the Huang Consortium... These all seem possible.
Although he has left the main city now, the storm he stirred up during his stay in the main city for a few days is not something that can be dissipated by his departure... Chen Ling has a hunch that the situation in the main city should be quite turbulent in the next period of time.
The note that Chen Ling left for the Huang Group before leaving was not actually a secret method that could turn the tide, but just a reminder...
As the special envoy of the Golden Society, Chen Ling is at the center of the storm in the struggle between the five major financial groups. He is the most sensitive to the general situation in the main city. He even instigated the fight between Beidou and Huadu, and the conflict between the two parties has reached an irreconcilable point. .
Chen Ling knew very well that the dying Huadu Consortium, which he had tortured, would definitely not be a match for the Beidou Consortium. No matter how hard Zong Wen struggled, it would only be a matter of time before the Huadu Consortium fell.
When a whale falls, everything thrives. The collapse of the Huadu Consortium will inevitably release a large amount of resources. Chen Ling's reminder to the Huang Consortium is to let them not be afraid of the power of the Huadu Consortium and start dividing or even annexing the Huadu Consortium as soon as possible. Resources, if it is too late, if several other major consortiums intervene, and some small consortiums are behind to enjoy the soup, then a good opportunity will be missed.
Although Chen Ling doesn't know how much benefit the Huang's consortium can get from this opportunity, it will definitely be more than the money they got from being cheated by him. It can also be regarded as a return of favor... What's more, in case the Huang's consortium If you really seize the opportunity, you can count it as your own support, and maybe it will be a big help in the near future.
Chen Ling made a thorough calculation of the situation in the main city of Hongchen in her mind, and pushed a car full of banknotes into the mountain peak, slowly disappearing at the end of the horizon in the night.
