Chapter 18: The Enemy's Retaliation
Meanwhile, in Washington D.C.
Inside a skyscraper, a young man sits in the seat of honor in a meeting room, his eyes wide open in anger, and slams heavily on the table, which instantly bursts apart.
"My cousin has been out of touch for a day! How is the investigation that I asked you to carry out going? Don't tell me that you can't even find a living person!"
The elders sitting around all lower their heads, not daring to breathe a word.
This place was the Psychic Association in Washington D.C.
The young man leading them is called Simba, one of the newly-appointed council members of the Psychic Association.
And the missing person is called Bain, who is his cousin.
In order to suppress the strength of the Su Rong family, he specifically ordered his brother to hurt Su Rong a while ago, and took this opportunity to injure Su Daqiang.
The reason why they did this was because they felt that Su Daqiang was a potential threat. Although their martial arts association is not doing well at the moment, it is very likely to challenge the status of their Psychic Association in the future.
In recent years, the martial arts family represented by the Su Rong family has been growing stronger and stronger, with a steady stream of people in the martial arts hall.
As one flourishes and the other declines, the interests of the Psychic Association have inevitably been infringed upon.
And after the contradictions intensified, there was the scene a while ago.
Bain attempted to rape Su Rong, and Simba took the opportunity to injure her father, Su Daqiang.
Just then, the mobile phone of one of the elders suddenly rang. He frowned slightly, picked up the phone, and said solemnly, "Hello?"
A voice came from the phone. After the elder listened to it, he suddenly stood up, turned his head to look at Council Member Simba, and said, "Councilor! Your cousin has been found!"
Simba darkly said, "Where is he now?!"
The elder deeply said, "He's locked up in a private prison, being tortured!"
"What?"
At these words, everyone in the room changed their expression and stood up.
The elder squinted his eyes and said, "One of our informants has given me a very important piece of news. A few days ago in the morning, Bain and his father went to a seaside villa owned by the wealthiest man, Alexander. There seemed to be a conflict between them, the details of which are unclear, but in the end, Bain and his group were all arrested.
In my judgment, Alexander is after all the richest man in America in name, and he has many bodyguards around him. These people are very skilled, all of them are special forces veterans, so they caught Bain and his father."
People around were looking at each other.
"You're saying..." Simba said solemnly, "Alexander's bodyguards defeated Bain and his father? That's impossible!"
Simba abruptly stood up and shouted, "You have all seen Bain's strength. Although he has not formally become a member of the Psychic Association, he possesses a D-level talent and physical prowess far surpassing ordinary people!"
All the surrounding elders nodded.
Yes!
Although Bain's talent could not be considered very strong, it was many times stronger than that of ordinary people.
Even if he encountered bodyguards with special forces backgrounds, even if he couldn't confront them directly, he should definitely be able to retreat intact.
How could he possibly be captured? And not just him, his entire team was annihilated, not a single one escaped!
One of the elders hesitated and said, "But the fact is as such, my informant even sent me the address where the two of them are being held!"
Simba said heavily, "No matter what, immediately take people to the prison now, and bring Bain and his team back to me safely!"
"Yes! I will arrange it immediately!"
Simba sat in the main seat, squinted his eyes, and with a snap, the pen in his hand was instantly crushed by him.
"Alexander! Don't think I'm afraid of you just because you're the richest man, I'm going to let you know that money is not omnipotent in this world, dare to provoke me, and you're finished!"
...
Several hours later, in the deep night.
Outside a villa located in the suburbs, several black cars stopped in front of the vacant streets.
The car doors opened, and one by one, men holding guns came down.
Boom!
With a loud noise, the villa's front door was blasted apart by a punch from a middle-aged man.
"Who's there?!"
Inside the villa, several patrolling bodyguards turned their heads abruptly and shouted, drawing their pistols from their waists.
The middle-aged man, leading dozens of people without any expression, walked in, looked at the two bodyguards, and coldly ordered, "Attack!"
Those dozens of men immediately opened fire on the bodyguards.
Facing the siege of numerous enemies, the two bodyguards quickly fell, their bodies full of blood, falling to the ground.
The middle-aged man used his toes to lift one of the bodyguard's chins, looked down at him from above, and said indifferently, "Speak, where are the dozens of people you captured the other day? If you don't tell me, I will take your life now!"
The bodyguard, gasping for breath, trembled and said, "In... in the basement..."
...
A few minutes later, the door to the basement was kicked open, and blinding light instantly flooded in.
You could see dozens of people chained in the huge underground warehouse. The blinding light flooded in, causing everyone to close their eyes.
"Bain!"
The middle-aged man instantly spotted Bain, who was chained to the wall with numerous injuries, rushed in and came to his side.
Bain's eyes were blood-red, gritting his teeth, he said, "Did my cousin send you?"
The middle-aged man quickly unlocked the shackles on him, and said, "Yes, we received the news that you were captured by Alexander's bodyguards the other day. The councilman was very worried about your safety. We've been looking for you for a whole day, and finally found you!"
Two people supported Bain's body, helping him stumble out of the basement.
Bain gritted his teeth, his eyes full of resentment.
"Tell my cousin!" He said fiercely, "I want him to kill someone. If this person is not killed, I will not rest easy!"
"Who?" asked the middle-aged man.
Bain's eyes were filled with rage and hatred, he gritted his teeth and said, "Alexander!"
In the early morning, the bright sunlight shone into the bedroom, and Alexander opened his eyes.
Annie was still sleeping on his chest, a faint smile hanging at the corners of her mouth. For her, last night was simply too wild, which caused her body to be extremely fatigued, showing no signs of waking up.
Alexander gently pulled his body away. He kissed Annie's flawless face, then got up and went to the bathroom.
In the bathroom was a mirror. Through this mirror, Alexander could see that his body had been changing more and more since he had been practicing the "Supreme Yin-Yang" dual cultivation method with his wives.
His skin looked smoother and almost wrinkle-free. His hair had started to turn black and became denser.
Alexander stood naked in front of the mirror, slightly straightened his chest, and smiled appreciating his increasingly youthful image.
If he didn't tell anyone, nobody would think that Alexander was actually 90 years old this year! Now, he looked more like in his fifties.
Alexander couldn't help but laugh, his smile filled with confidence and satisfaction, the smile of a man who knew his own worth and could satisfy his own needs in the face of the world.
After finishing his morning routine, just as Alexander was about to return to the bedroom, his phone, which was placed aside, suddenly rang.
Without thinking too much, Alexander picked up the phone and said, "Hello? Who is this?"
An urgent voice came from the other end of the phone, "Sir, I'm your bodyguard, Mike. I have to tell you that the guys who were locked up in Dika prison last night have been rescued.
I'm afraid they might take revenge on you, so you must be careful these days. Our security team has been pulling people from all over the world and will be stationed in your villa area by noon at the latest today!"
At this moment, Alexander felt a slight fluctuation in the air. He quickly turned his head, his sharp gaze looking towards the distant hilltop.
Just at this moment, a bullet broke through the sky, shooting towards Alexander's forehead.
"Bang!" With a loud noise, the bullet penetrated the glass and hit Alexander's forehead, then was directly rebounded onto the ground by the spiritual energy condensed on his body's surface.
Alexander stepped back involuntarily, raising his head, looking at a small hill thousands of meters away, his face incredibly calm.
"Hello, sir, are you okay?" Mike's anxious voice came from the phone.
Alexander calmly said, "I'm fine, I'll call you back later."
After that, he hung up the phone.
