Chapter 556: Going to the Front Stage
Translator: VinceStar Editor: PrisMiko
Although there were no outsiders here, Yang Ming couldn’t guarantee that Bao Sanli wouldn’t speak of his own matter! If he wanted Bao Sanli to shut up, he had to kill him. This was obviously not a good idea. As for the rest, he could only use his other identity to suppress him!
That was the boss behind-the-scenes, Mr. Y. Only by using his own behind-the-scenes boss identity to shock Bao Sanli, could he keep Bao Sanli from speaking about today’s events.
It wasn’t that Yang Ming didn’t think that after intervening, he would go back and use the name of Mr. Y to command Bao Sanli to keep it a secret. But, that would be more problematic! Why did Mr. Y have to be kept secret for Yang Ming? Even if Bao Sanli was stupid, there was no relation between them at all. It was likely to raise his suspicion, so it was better to disclose his identity.
Moreover, the assassination matter was also a good opportunity to anchor his might.
Thinking of this, Yang Ming simply let go. When he noticed Wu Ming wanted to escape, he immediately stopped in front of the man.
“Get out of my way!” Wu Ming couldn’t stay for a long time. He wanted to flee, but he didn’t expect Yang Ming, who had been keeping quiet, to actually stop in front of him.
“Since you came, just stay here.” Yang Ming said faintly.
” Hmph ! Don’t overestimate your capabilities!” Wu Ming didn’t put Yang Ming in his eyes. He snorted as his right hand wanted to claw at Yang Ming’s face.
If it was a year ago, Yang Ming might have been intimidated by this person’s cruel tricks. But, it was different now. Yang Ming didn’t put Wu Ming’s trick in his eyes.
He was fast but Yang Ming was faster; his tricks were ruthless but Yang Ming was even more ruthless! What Yang Ming learned from Fang Tian was the assassination technique, so it was just right to use in dealing with Wu Ming.
Yang Ming didn’t want to finish him in one move. Although in a sense it could show his prowess, it would make people say that luck played a role.
Therefore, Yang Ming simply played with him first.
Bao Sanli had seen Yang Ming fight before, but this time it was obviously different! Bao Sanli was clear about Hou Zhenhan’s skill. He came from the special forces. Even if he was no longer in top form, he was much stronger than an ordinary person! But even Hou Zhenhan found it very difficult to deal with this person in front of him. However, Yang Ming was very capable, and he didn’t show any weakness.
Originally, Bao Sanli only thought that Yang Ming’s fighting skill was based on relentless strength. But, he didn’t expect that Yang Ming was skillful.
On the other hand, it was Hou Zhenhan’s first time to witness Yang Ming showing his skills. He couldn’t help but be shocked! He had been very conceited about his own martial arts. But, in front of this Wu Ming, he didn’t have the slightest advantage. It was rather a stretch for him. But Yang Ming was different. Hou Zhenhan could notice at a glance that Yang Ming had not used his full strength yet! Hou Zhenhan was surprised but at the same time secretly scared. Brother Yang is like still water that runs deep[1]!
No wonder his appetite is so big. He wanted to swallow the underworld of Song Jiang all of a sudden. It seems that Brother Yang really has that strength! In the past, Hou Zhenhan only respected Yang Ming and worked for Yang Ming simply because Yang Ming saved his mother. Hou Zhenhan was a person of affection and righteousness. Yang Ming helped him, so he would repay Yang Ming.
However, after this scene, Hou Zhenhan held Yang Ming in awe instead of the initial respect!
Wu Ming didn’t put Yang Ming in his eyes at all. But, when the expert gave his shots, only then did he realize it. After exchanging two moves with Yang Ming, Wu Ming knew deep in his heart this would be bad. Although he and I appear to be on equal ground, in fact, I have already suffered a big loss!
Song Jiang actually has such an expert. It seems only my boss, Black Widow, can fight against him! Thinking of this, Wu Ming didn’t want to continue the fight. It wasn’t an assassin’s style to stubbornly fight for it even though it was impossible. The first move of an assassin after encountering a strong opponent was to escape. It was foolish to confront relentlessly.
However, Yang Ming was different from Hou Zhenhan. If Wu Ming wanted to flee, he had to be able to run away. Yang Ming was toying with him. He hadn’t used all his strength. Of course, he wouldn’t let Wu Ming flee.
“Brother, what’s your origin? This has nothing to do with you. I hope you don’t intervene otherwise some forces aren’t something you can touch!” Wu Ming noticed that he couldn’t get out, so he gave a warning.
” Hehe , are you trying to scare me?” Yang Ming said out of amusement. Wu Ming in front of me is obviously so much weaker than me, and yet he still utters such blunt words!
“I’m just kindly reminding you… To confront us, there’s no good ending.” Wu Ming faintly warned, “You better not be a busybody!”
“Your group? Hehe , who is in your group?” Yang Ming asked indifferently.
“This… you don’t need to know.” Wu Ming certainly wouldn’t name his organization. “The more you know, the more trouble you get.”
“Is it? What’s your relationship with the fat man and the thin man from before?” Yang Ming smiled and said, “I’m looking for them now. But, it seems that you and they are definitely related. Then don’t blame me for keeping you here!”
” Hmph , don’t you know a lot? It turns out that the hatred is already there!” When Wu Ming heard Yang Ming say so, he knew Yang Ming wouldn’t let go of him. He was ready to fight until the end. “Come on! I am not afraid of you!”
“Really?” Yang Ming pretended to be amazed.
“…” Wu Ming wanted to talk, but he found out that while he had spoken, he hadn’t seen what Yang Ming had done. He had slowly fallen to the ground.
Yang Ming stood quietly behind his fallen body and shook his head. “I’m afraid you’re the one overestimating your ability.”
“Big Hou, find someone to tie him up. I have something to ask him!” Yang Ming this time had dropped the pretense of addressing Hou Zhenhan as “Brother Hou,” and he directly gave instructions.
“Yes, Brother Yang.” Hou Zhenhan nodded. When he noticed Yang Ming had instructed as such, he knew that Yang Ming had to reveal his identity. Therefore, he answered respectfully.
Bao Sanli was dumbfounded instead! Yang Ming suddenly commanded Hou Zhenhan which made him somewhat inexplicable! If Yang Ming simply commanded, at least there was a reason. However, what was even more bizarre was that Hou Zhenhan actually respectfully agreed!
“Brother Hou… what are you doing?” Bao Sanli looked at Hou Zhenhan quickly grabbing the rope from the back of the car and tie Wu Ming, and then he asked, puzzled.
Hou Zhenhan didn’t answer Bao Sanli’s words but looked at Yang Ming. Because Yang Ming didn’t speak, he couldn’t say anything. Although he could guess Yang Ming’s intentions, it only worked when Yang Ming spoke up on his own. He couldn’t do much.
“This isn’t the place to talk. Let’s go back first.” Yang Ming smiled and didn’t immediately reveal his identity. He wanted this effect, keeping a sense of mystery so that Bao Sanli could be more in awe of him.
“Alright…” Bao Sanli nodded in doubt and surprise. It could be said that Hou Zhenhan was actually Bao Sanli’s guide. What Hou Zhenhan did basically represented the intention of Mr. Y., so when he saw Hou Zhenhan being respectful to Yang Ming, Bao Sanli didn’t dare to say anything more.
Throwing Wu Ming into the back seat of the BMW, Hou Zhenhan closed the door and got in the car to start it up.
“Wait!” Yang Ming waved his hand and stopped Hou Zhenhan.
“What’s wrong, Brother Yang?” Hou Zhenhan asked curiously.
“Check the car’s brake system. Is there a problem?!” In addition to figuring out Wu Ming’s identity, what Yang Ming wanted to know most was whether the brake system of the BMW had any problems!
It was because the feeling he had was too strange. The scene in front of him seemed real. If it was false, Yang Ming didn’t know how he fantasized it!
So, Yang Ming was very anxious to determine that fact now. If things were exactly like what he just saw, then the scene of “seeing” Wang Xifan’s murder act and disposing of the corpse when he was in Chen Mengyan’s home should be true.
Hou Zhenhan didn’t understand why Yang Ming was so sure that the car’s brake system had a problem, but he always listened to Yang Ming’s words. This was also due to personal safety considerations so he couldn’t be sloppy.
So, Hou Zhenhan nodded and went to examine the brake system of the BMW. Not long after, Hou Zhenhan exclaimed, “Who removed the brake pads?”
“What!” Bao Sanli was immediately frightened and quickly leaned down. “For real?!”
“Really. If Brother Yang wasn’t here, probably today would have been the end of us!” Hou Zhenhan said with lingering fear.
Bao Sanli raised his head. He looked at Yang Ming with some surprise. He didn’t expect Yang Ming to say it so accurately. He could guess in advance that the car was tampered with! He questioned the identity of Yang Ming even more.
