Chapter 870: You ignorant ants are looking for death!
bomb!
Remote detonation!
Pei Qingsong's words were like a huge rock thrown into a calm lake, instantly causing uproar in Pei Xingchen's heart. The intense shock even made his eyes widen, his mouth open wide, and his jaw almost dropped in shock. His whole body was numb and he couldn't recover for a long time!
Pei Xingchen instinctively grabbed the family emblem on his collar and pulled it off. He stared at the exquisite family emblem blankly, his eyes filled with fear and dread, as if he was looking at a snake or scorpion.
Pei Xingchen never expected that Pei Qingsong's so-called secret would be such a shocking bomb!
The family emblem that everyone in the Pei family wears with them can not only monitor everyone's movements, listen to everyone's conversations and record them, but it is also a bomb that can be detonated remotely at any time!
Doesn’t this mean that the life and death of everyone in the Pei family is actually in Pei Runnian’s hands!
Pei Xingchen immediately understood why only Pei Runnian knew such a secret.
Indeed, this secret that violates everyone's privacy and controls other people's life and death must be known by Pei Runnian alone. Once leaked, it will definitely cause an uproar in the entire Pei family. Even the most loyal soldiers to the Pei family will inevitably feel disgusted and resist wearing the family emblem.
As for those who were already dissatisfied with the Pei family, such as the people from the third, fourth and fifth rooms, once they knew that there was such a secret hidden on the family emblem, and they knew that Pei Runnian might have eavesdropped on many of their secrets, they would definitely not give in to Pei Runnian and might even turn the table and rebel!
Not to mention the Pei family's retainers and other outsiders, even Pei family members like Pei Xingchen, upon hearing that there was such a secret hidden on the family emblem, felt instinctively disgusted and immediately pulled the family emblem down.
Everyone has his own secrets and a side that he wants to hide. If someone can monitor his every move at any time and even hear every word he says clearly, it will definitely arouse the greatest anger and the strongest resistance from the monitored person!
Not to mention, there is a bomb installed in the family emblem, which can be detonated remotely at any time and kill the person wearing the family emblem. This is even more unacceptable!
No one can accept that his or her life and death is in the hands of others. Others can end his or her life by just pressing a button. This is absolutely unbearable!
Even the most loyal subordinates would turn against the Pei family without hesitation after knowing the news.
This has nothing to do with loyalty. This kind of thing is completely a violation of a person's free will and deprives him of the right to control his life. No human being can tolerate such a thing happening!
What’s the difference between having your life and death controlled by others and being a slave in ancient times!
Therefore, this secret was destined to be known only by Pei Runnian, the head of the Pei family.
The fewer people who know about it, the smaller the risk of leakage, and the greater the benefit to Pei Runnian!
If more people knew about it and united in anger to resist Pei Runnian, then the Pei family would be in big trouble.
Pei Xingchen figured this out, but he still couldn't stop the anger that instinctively rose in his heart. That was the defensive psychology that people instinctively developed after their privacy was invaded by others. It had nothing to do with the closeness of the relationship, it only had to do with the fact that one's privacy had been invaded!
When he thought that every word he had said in the past, including the curses against Pei Runnian, might have been heard by Pei Runnian, and that his every move had been monitored by Pei Runnian, not to mention that there was a bomb hidden in this family emblem that could be detonated by someone at any time and kill him, even though Pei Xingchen was Pei Runnian's biological son, he couldn't help but feel a strong sense of hostility in his heart. He immediately clasped his hands together, and with a click, he crushed the family emblem into pieces!
Pei Xingchen let the fragments of the family emblem fall from his palm, looking at Pei Qingsong with an extremely gloomy expression and said through gritted teeth.
"How could the family do such a despicable thing!"
"You monitor other people's actions, record their phone calls, and can remotely detonate bombs to kill others. Do you know what you are doing?"
"If this matter gets out, it is very likely that the entire family will become divided and fall apart!"
"You are simply shameless!"
Things are changing. Pei Qingsong just scolded Pei Xingchen harshly, and now it is Pei Xingchen's turn to scold him back, and he is also very harsh.
Pei Qingsong was not angry this time because Pei Xingchen scolded him, because any ten people would be emotional after knowing this matter, so let Pei Xingchen scold him, and Pei Qingsong just pretended not to hear it.
After Pei Xingchen finished cursing and venting his emotions, Pei Qingsong snorted coldly.
"I haven't finished speaking yet, why are you anxious?"
"Admittedly, installing a bomb in the family emblem is a bit damaging and does threaten their lives, but the family did this for a reason."
"Ten years ago, when the four elders of the family failed in their attempt to ambush the Wanbian Medical Immortal and died, the family was in turmoil and people were in panic. Many people even thought that the family would decline from then on, or even fall apart. Therefore, in this dangerous situation, some people chose to escape and cut ties with the Pei family, some chose to live and die with the Pei family, and some chose to join forces with other forces and betray the Pei family."
"The Pei family was in a precarious situation at the time. Its strength and influence were at their weakest. In addition, the head of the family had just returned from a great defeat and his prestige had plummeted. Therefore, many members of the family who were not optimistic about the Pei family's victory simply colluded with other forces and kept selling out the Pei family's intelligence in order to curry favor with other forces and find a good backer after the Pei family collapsed."
"Several incidents occurred at that time. You were still playing in the mud at that time. You didn't know how serious the situation was. There were even several times when people colluded with each other inside and outside, and almost took the life of the head of the family!"
"After much reflection, the head of the family decided to create a family crest and distribute it to everyone. This is to help us find clues about relevant personnel leaking family information and protect the survival of the family. This is not what you imagine, that we do this just to monitor you. We are not that boring."
Pei Qingsong curled his lips, "Besides, although the family emblem can monitor personal actions and tricks, eavesdrop on conversations, and remotely detonate, it is not as easy to activate as you think."
"In the entire Pei family, only the head of the family has the authority to use the above-mentioned functions. No one else has this authority."
"And the head of the family also knows that everyone has various concerns and does not want privacy to be leaked, so the relevant functions are usually turned off. The head of the family is not so bored that he would just listen to your chats every day. He will only activate it when necessary."
"Besides, this family crest is not all bad. With the family crest, once a family member is in danger and loses contact, the family can use the family crest to locate and rescue them directly. This is the most important purpose. Do you really think the head of the family cares about your little secrets?"
Pei Qingsong glanced at Pei Xingchen with disdain. After listening to Pei Qingsong's explanation, Pei Xingchen felt a little better, but still felt very awkward.
In fact, this kind of awkwardness is very normal. It is the instinctive reaction of a normal person after his privacy is violated.
Even though Pei Qingsong spoke so nicely and exaggeratedly, as if having this family emblem would bring them so many benefits, in fact, it all came down to Pei Runnian developing these devices in order to more conveniently monitor the entire Pei family to see if anyone would endanger his position.
The base is originally black, no matter how much you beautify or modify it, it will be useless.
Pei Xingchen stopped talking, but he had already made up his mind that when he returned, he would find someone to check all the odds and ends on him to see if there was anything like the family emblem.
This thing is so disgusting!
When Pei Qingsong saw that Pei Xingchen didn't say anything and his face was still very ugly, he knew that he was very unhappy, so he didn't dwell on it any longer and just said lightly.
"Normally, the master of the family has the power to turn on and off all the functions on the family emblem. No one else can use the functions of the family emblem except the master of the family."
"Before I was brought here, the head of the family gave me this device to prevent any unexpected dangers. He also granted me temporary authority to control the family crests on these people!"
Pei Qingsong looked at the Pei family warriors who had rushed to Zhao Wuming's men, with an extremely cold light flashing in his eyes.
"Later, after they have surrounded Zhao Wuming, Tian Qi and the others, I will directly remotely detonate the bomb on the family emblem."
"In this way, we can cause serious casualties to Zhao Wuming's men, and maybe even kill one or two of them in the chaos."
"The scene will be extremely chaotic by then, so it will be convenient for us to leave."
Pei Xingchen was not an ordinary person after all. He knew that now was not the time to pursue the matter of the family emblem, so he quickly put away his dissatisfaction and nodded to indicate that he agreed with Pei Qingsong's idea. He also looked at the Pei family warriors who were surrounding Zhao Wuming's men and preparing to launch an attack, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
Next, it depends on the performance of Pei family’s private army and Pei Xingchen’s men.
The closer they get, the more severe the damage will be when Pei Qingsong detonates the family emblem. The more chaotic the scene will be, and the easier it will be for them to escape.
During the entire process, neither Pei Qingsong nor Pei Xingchen felt the slightest bit of guilt for sending so many people to their deaths. It was as if those Pei family warriors and Pei Xingchen's men were not living people but game characters, and there was not the slightest psychological ripple.
How to say it, from this perspective, the Pei family's cold-blooded, utilitarian education tradition is really very successful, and it has successfully turned every member of the Pei family into a cold-blooded bastard!
However, those Pei family warriors and Pei Xingchen's men who had already rushed to Zhao Wuming's men had no idea that their lives were no longer under their control and had entered the countdown. They were still charging forward with fanatical eyes, shouting and wanting to kill Zhao Wuming and Tian Qi in order to fight for a future of wealth and glory!
Zhao Wuming's six men stood in front of Zhao Wuming and Tian Qi, spreading out in an arc to form an extremely thin line of defense. They looked at the Pei family warriors and Pei Xingchen's men who were rushing towards them with extremely cold eyes, and a fierce murderous intent was already rising from their bodies.
"You ignorant ants are just courting death!"
One of Zhao Wuming's men snorted coldly, turned his wrist, and a short knife snatched from the previous battle appeared in his hand. He shook it lightly and several knife flowers appeared. The sharp and bright light was so dazzling that people could not open their eyes.
The other five people had the same expressions and thoughts. They did not take the attacking Pei family warriors and Pei Xingchen's men seriously.
Most of these people are minions in the Ming Jin and Qiang Shen realms. Even if some of them have cultivated to the An Jin realm, most of them are still in the early stage of An Jin and cannot pose any threat to them at all!
Even though there are a lot of people, if a fight really breaks out, Zhao Wuming's six men alone are enough to kill them all, and Zhao Wuming and Tian Qi wouldn't even have to take action!
Precisely because they had such powerful military force, they had enough confidence to stand here and watch those people rush over and surround them. There was no ripple in their hearts, and they even felt like laughing.
What they wanted to laugh at was that these Pei family warriors and Pei Xingchen's men were so bold that they actually dared to attack them!
Who gave them the courage to attack Zhao Wuming's six men head-on?
Do you really think that we can’t do anything to them just because they are outnumbered?
However, although the number of lions is small, they are not afraid of the attacks of the hyenas at all, because they know those guys are no match for them!
Don’t the soldiers brought by Pei Qingsong and Pei Xingchen’s men know this truth?
Of course they knew it, but for various reasons they had temporarily ignored it.
The reinforcements brought by Pei Qingsong were private soldiers trained by the Pei family with great effort. Each of them had undergone brainwashing training and became almost robotic soldiers. They had no normal emotions, only persistence and numbness in completing their goals.
Since Pei Qingsong gave them the order to come and besiege Zhao Wuming and Tian Qi, no matter who stands in their way, they will never waver and will only complete the task with great determination.
Pei Xingchen's subordinates no longer have the determination they had after being brainwashed, but they are still blinded by greed.
Of course they knew that they were no match for Zhao Wuming, Tian Qi or even their men, but the high bounty offered by Pei Qingsong still made them unable to resist the temptation and wanted to come over to see if there was any chance to take advantage.
They always had a glimmer of hope in their hearts. Even if they were not the opponents, Zhao Wuming's men were also human beings, and there would always be a time when they would be exhausted.
What if they are the lucky ones who can dodge the attacks of Zhao Wuming and his men, get close, and chop off their heads with one knife when Zhao Wuming and Tian Qi are exhausted?
That would really be a quick ascension to heaven, and you would enjoy endless wealth and glory!
Even if someone really did die, why wouldn't that person be their companion?
They have good luck and will never die here!
This kind of thinking and mentality of taking chances exist in everyone's heart, coupled with greed, that's why they rush here, tacitly looking for opportunities to take advantage.
While they were all harboring their own ulterior motives, the warriors brought by Pei Qingsong were the first to approach Zhao Wuming's six men.
"kill!"
A short and rapid shout of killing rose into the sky. The warriors brought by Pei Qingsong raised the daggers in their hands and rushed towards Zhao Wuming's men with roars, looking brave enough to kill them!
However, their attitude posed no threat to Zhao Wuming's six men, and did not even move them in the slightest.
"It's meaningless, it's just courting death!"
Zhao Wuming's men snorted coldly, made a few deft moves with the short knife in their hands, and with a tap of their toes, they disappeared from the spot, leaving behind only that extremely cold voice.
"Since you are seeking death, I will grant your wish!"
Along with Leng He's voice full of murderous intent, all six of Zhao Wuming's men disappeared from the spot at once.
However, the next second, an extremely shrill scream suddenly rang out in the hall!
"what!"
"Ahhh!"
Amidst a few short and shrill screams, six blank spaces suddenly appeared in the originally huge queue of Pei family warriors. It felt as if someone had used an eraser to directly erase the six blank spaces. It looked particularly abrupt and terrifying!
The Pei family warriors looked in the direction of the sound in confusion, and saw six of Zhao Wuming's men standing in the positions of their teammates, swinging the daggers in their hands lightly and wantonly, like the scythe of the god of death reaping lives, reaping lives wantonly!
With just a casual blow of the knife, three or five of his men covered their bleeding throats, knelt down on the ground with despair and fear on their faces, and fell silent in an instant.
With just one encounter, Zhao Wuming's six men instantly cleared out the enemies around them in the dense crowd, so the six blank spaces appeared so suddenly!
Immediately afterwards, the empty space turned bloody. A large amount of blood gushed out from the throats of the dead Pei family warriors, instantly dyeing the ground red!
Seeing this scene, even though the Pei family's warriors had been trained to the point where they had almost lost their normal emotions, they still couldn't help but feel their scalps tingling, their breathing became heavy, and they gripped the daggers in their hands even tighter.
Not to mention Pei Xingchen's men, they were already scared to death by the fighting power displayed by Zhao Wuming's men in this encounter!
