Chapter 789 - Chickens To Slaughter (2/2)

Tang Xinyang could imagine the chaos it caused in the hall. For the enemy to be successful to attack a place filled with experts, their strength and number should be great as the Tang experts there.

Tang Xinyang suddenly doubted if she could really escape from here. She planned to fight these experts once the drug wear off. But knowing that now, the possibility to escape seemed impossible. Besides, she also had to take Xiong Zhi with her.

Tang Xinyang suddenly thought of her family.

”My sister and grandma...”

”I am not sure if they took them as well. I fainted in the hall and woke up here. Though, I have an inkling that they would not take any more Tang members other than you.”

Tang Xinyang wanted to believe in Xiong Zhi's words. It was better if she was the only Tang member here. The matter of Tang family failing to protect its guest would surely cause the downfall of their family. If more core members of the Tang family were kidnapped, it would take another huge toll on the family.

It was at this moment that they heard another voice beside them, ”Xiong Zhi? Tang Xinyang? Is that you guys?”

The voice was groggy and weak.

”Lu Yin Ze?” The two women asked with incredulity.

”Why Tang Xinyang is here-” Lu Yin Ze's voice was interrupted by another man's whisper.

”Lu Yin Ze? Xiong Zhi? Why are you guys here?” Guan Gu Ri asked in surprise.

The two men that were put beside them were Lu Yin Ze and Guan Gu Ri.

The lined-up people with sacks over their heads communicated with low voices. Ever since they were kidnapped and transferred into this place, this was the first time they became aware of each other's existence. This was especially true for Guan Gu Ri and Tang Xinyang who were kidnapped alone.

The experts standing at the side saw that their captives were sneakingly communicating with each other. When they were about to interrupt them, they saw a person at the entrance who rose his hand. The experts froze. They back down and continued to stand aside.

Xiong Zhi's group had a chance to learn each other's situations before coming here.

From their brief conversation, Xiong Zhi learned that Jang Shin tried to save Tang Xinyang when the Tang building was besieged by the enemy. But fighting many experts alone made Jang Shin almost lose his life. Tang Xinyang was not aware of Jang Shin's current condition.

Guan Gu Ri also experienced the same thing.

He was in the parking lot when his assistant suddenly attacked him. Guan Gu Ri managed to avoid him and caught him. The assistant explained everything, however, it was too late. Guan Gu Ri was surrounded in the parking lot. He wasn't been able to call anyone before those people threw a smoke bomb on him.

Unlike the Tang office where many guards and employees died, the only casualty was the assistant. Thus, Guan Gu Ri's disappearance was unknown to others.

Xiong Zhi and Lu Yin Ze also told the two what happened in the hall in the shortest way possible.

Their brief and low conversation somehow eased the dread and anxiousness in their hearts. In the face of the unknown and possible occurrences of their deaths, having companions lighten up the pressure in their chest.

However, deep inside their hearts, they were alarmed. Why they were gathered here? Why those people did not kill them on the spot?

Why specifically target them?

These questions just brought a wave of trepidation to Xiong Zhi's heart.

In the middle of their hush voices, crisp footsteps approached them.

Xiong Zhi who was alert in her surroundings heard a new bunch of footsteps. That footstep stopped in front of the red couch.

”How is your reunion?”

A lively voice that did not belong to their group suddenly joined their discussion.

All of the sounds in the room died. It was like someone muted everyone. Even the experts who were snickering and looking at the group on the ground with malicious intention fixed their expressions.

Xiong Zhi trembled when she heard the familiar voice. It was the same with Tang Xinyang, Guan Gu Ri, and Lu Yin Ze.

This voice...

They only heard this voice rarely, but since the owner of this voice was a man they investigated deeply, and feared by many, they could never forget his voice or his way of speaking.

The man who stood before them was none other than Ming Zhi Yi.
