This question left Su Lun dumbfounded for a long time.
Clearly, when he was setting up the trap, he did not notice this fatal flaw.
After thinking about it for a long time, he stuttered, "Perhaps Meng Chao was heavily injured at that time and his strength plummeted, so he could fight on equal grounds with Xiong Ying?"
"It's just as you said. Meng Chao is a despicable and shameless traitor who joined the abnormal beasts a long time ago. He was completely unharmed during the explosion in the Deification Capsule factory. He only pretended to be injured to trick and kill Bullet Xue Rui. He even nearly killed Snake Eye Mo Lan. Let me ask you, how could a schemer who has been lurking in the dark have the chance to be 'heavily injured'?"
Xiong Wei said coldly. "Besides, if Meng Chao was really heavily injured, he would have been weak when he held the saber.
"You have to understand that Bloody Soul is a heavy saber with high-grade crystals embedded in it. It requires a lot of strength and spirit energy to be stable.
"If he was heavily injured, even if he could control Bloody Soul, the wounds he inflicted would be a mess, and the depth would be different.
"But the angle, strength, and depth of the wounds on Xiong Ying's body are practically perfect. It shows just how amazing the saber wielder's control is."
Su Lun found himself speechless.
"I know that Meng Chao killed a Tyrant Mammoth a few days ago. Some of the materials from that Hell Beast even ended up in the black market controlled by Black Bone. You have Meng Chao's fighting video on your portable computer. I slowed it down by ten times and studied it carefully. I have to admit that after three months of training in the wild, he has already surpassed the threshold of someone who has just entered Heaven Realm. He's strong enough to become a top-class fighter," Xiong Wei continued.
"Reenact what happened at that time. Based on what you said, Meng Chao first intentionally appeared at the perimeter of Leprosy Village to attract our attention. Then, he set up an ambush in the underground maze and killed Rattlesnake Xiang Wei and my son, Xiong Ying.
"In other words, Xiong Ying should have been caught off guard and suffered Meng Chao's ambush.
"Although I also hope that my son can create a miracle, logic tells me that my son won't even be able to last three seconds against a first-rate elite who can single-handedly kill a Tyrant Mammoth in an ambush, much less fight the ambusher for three hundred rounds and leave so many wounds on his body.
"You must know that even Rattlesnake Xiang Wei didn't have so many wounds on him. The attacker first used a chain saber to crush Xiang Wei's neck, then stabbed his spine, and the saber came out of his chest. He killed Xiang Wei as if he was slaughtering a chicken. He didn't even give Xiang Wei the chance to struggle.
"Cobra Xiang Wei is considered a veteran fighter in the lair, but even he was easily killed by the ambushers. Why did my son die in such a sloppy manner?"
Su Lun opened his mouth, as if he wanted to argue in vain.
"Don't tell me that Xiong Ying died of torture."
Xiong Wei said coldly. "First, my son has no personal grudge against Meng Chao. What reason did he have to kill Xiang Wei with just one slash and use nearly one hundred slashes to kill my son?
"Second, at that time, a large number of gang members were rushing over aggressively. Meng Chao didn't have the time or the mood to kill my son."
Su Lun was silent for a long time before he sighed. "Then, I don't think I can find a reason."
"In conclusion, Xiong Ying was indeed killed by Meng Chao, but it's impossible for Meng Chao to use nearly one hundred slashes to kill him. This is the greatest flaw I found after I personally examined my son's corpse."
Xiong Wei gritted his teeth. "Red Brows Su Lun, perhaps you're really smart, or perhaps you betrayed your friends, the gang, and Dragon City to get some sort of power from the abnormal beasts that allowed you to quickly gain strength, just like the mutation you gained after eating Deification Capsules.
"Unfortunately, you can't call yourself a powerful fighter just because you have strength.
"On paper, lair people like us might not be as strong as the powerful fighters from the academies outside.
"But every one of us is a lucky survivor who has survived hundreds of battles and survived mountains of corpses and seas of blood.
"Before we learned how to speak, we learned how to use sabers first.
"If we can slaughter our way out of countless hungry, bottom-feeders and become gang leaders, who doesn't have more than one hundred scars on their bodies?
"In your eyes, wounds are just wounds.
"In our eyes, each wound is a page of a book, a picture, a scream, and dozens of wounds are enough to form the truth, the truth you've been trying to hide!"
When Su Lun heard this, he could no longer hold it in. He let out a gasp.
"So, you suspected me a long time ago?" he mumbled.
"That's right. Before Ms. Lu came, I suspected you," Xiong Wei said.
"The reason is simple. You said that Xiong Ying accidentally heard you give the order to kill Meng Chao and wanted to claim credit in front of me, which is why he acted on his own and helped Cobra Xiang Wei.
"Hmph, you're a smart and cautious person. If you didn't intentionally let him do what he wanted and even incited him, how could Xiong Ying have heard you talking to your subordinates?
"The three people I sent to kill Meng Chao — Xiang Wei, Xiong Ying, and Song Jinbo — weren't the best combination to begin with, but two of them died, and one went missing. As the saying goes, dead men tell no tales. You can say whatever you want about how they died!
"From the moment I noticed that there was something fishy about Xiong Ying's death, I became highly suspicious of you.
"I didn't kill the Red Crowned Speed Dragon King in the monster cage in Mutual Gold Coliseum to vent the pain of losing my beloved son, but to suppress my anger and suppress it to the deepest part of my heart. I couldn't show even a hint of it on my face.
"But I knew that there was something wrong with you, but I couldn't take you down directly. I could only feign civility and try to find your weakness!"
When he said this, Phantom Bear Xiong Wei could no longer control himself.
He roared and swung his arms. With two loud booms, two clear and huge palm prints were left on the reinforced concrete walls on both sides of the room, seven to eight meters away.
"Ms. Lu told me that she noticed something strange about you, and I agreed with her. Naturally, we hit it off."
Xiong Wei's eyes were bloodshot, and he looked as savage as a demon. With each step he took, he drew closer to Su Lun. "I've disappointed you. Even if I didn't know whether Meng Chao was innocent at that time, I wouldn't have attacked or killed him the moment we met, because I had to ask him the most crucial question. Why did he fight so many times against my son?
"Of course, I don't need Meng Chao to answer me now.
"Thank you for telling me the truth, Red Brows Su Lun. I can finally kill the real culprit and comfort Xiong Ying's soul in heaven!"
Even Meng Chao and Lu Siya could sense Phantom Bear Xiong Wei's murderous aura, which was filled with resentment.
At that moment, he seemed to have truly turned into his nickname. He was a raging bear who had crawled out of the depths of hell and was only left with a skeleton and monstrous rage.
In fact, Meng Chao felt that the thirty-six thousand pores on his body were like thirty-six thousand gates to hell that had been opened wide. Xiong Ying and the countless wandering souls in hell charged out and wanted to use Xiong Wei's hands to personally take revenge for him.
Meng Chao and Lu Siya shuddered at the same time.
They instinctively stuck close to each other and felt goosebumps rise on each other's skin.
As bystanders, they could not open their eyes because of the pressure from Phantom Bear Xiong Wei.
Su Lun, who was facing Xiong Wei's burning rage, was also terrified.
Even though his brain was still working at a high speed and he was nervously thinking of a way to survive, he lost control of his organs and limbs.
However, his organs and limbs were out of control, making him look like a clown.
"W-Wait, Gang Leader Xiong, listen to me. You can't kill me. I surrender. I —"
His begging was instantly drowned out by his pained screams.
Xiong Wei stomped on his foot.
The soles of his feet, as well as the armor that was wrapped around them, were all trampled into meat paste.
Then, he stomped on Su Lun's ankle.
Next, he stomped on the bottom half of his calf.
Then, he stomped on the top half of his calf.
Soon, everything below Su Lun's right knee disappeared without a trace.
It was as if he had been devoured alive by a hungry ghost from hell.
Su Lun was in so much pain that he wanted to faint.
But Xiong Wei sent a wave of spirit energy into his body through his bloody wound so that he could remain conscious at all times and beg for death.
"Don't worry, I won't let you die, at least not now."
Xiong Wei squatted down and grinned savagely. He drew close to Su Lun and whispered, "You should remember how I told you how to deal with Meng Chao, right? Let me tell you a little secret. At that time, I said Meng Chao, but in my heart, I was thinking about cutting you into pieces and tearing you to pieces! "
His anger had yet to fade away. He slapped Su Lun and knocked out half of his teeth.
"S-Save me …" Su Lun's head fell to the side powerlessly.
"I surrender! I can't die! I can help you capture the Vortex! I know a lot of the secrets of the monster civilization! I'm willing to forsake the darkness and join the light!" Su Lun's head tilted to the side powerlessly, and he begged for mercy with a lisp.
Meng Chao and Lu Siya ignored him and remained unmoved.
Then, Xiong Wei did the same thing and stomped Su Lun's left foot into mush. Su Lun screamed so loudly that his vocal cords were about to be torn. Meng Chao went forward and said, "Gang Leader Xiong, that's enough."
Xiong Wei turned his head around and cast Meng Chao a cold glance.
"Brat, are you ordering me around?"
Black Bone's gang leader asked with a savage expression. "Even though I fell into his trap, Xiong Ying still died in your hands. I'm forcing myself not to attack you, and that's already my limit. If you go overboard, I'll kill you as well!"
"Gang Leader Xiong, if you're really interested in sparring, once the lair is calm, I'll naturally fight you to the end," Meng Chao said without backing down.
Meng Chao did not back down. "But don't you think that the real culprit who killed your son is still free?
"After all, I was deceived, and Su Lun was just an accomplice. The one who really controlled Xiong Ying and asked me to kill him was the Vortex.
"Cutting Su Lun into pieces would definitely be very satisfying, but if I could capture the Vortex and cut it into pieces, it would be even more satisfying, right?"
