Chapter 729 - Zhao Lei
“AAAAAAH!” Zhao Lei shouted and held his injured eyes as he squatted down.
In the chaotic basement, Li Huowang glared at Zhao Lei mercilessly, holding a cleaver as he blocked the entrance.
Just as Li Huowang had asked Wang Gang who was the traitor, Zhao Lei attacked him from behind.
He didn't need the answer from Wang Gang anymore—he knew Zhao Lei was the traitor.
Zhao Lei also knew that they were supposed to meet up at Orange Isle last time.
That was how Li Huowang was almost hit by the truck when they were halfway to Orange Isle. Zhao Lei had informed them!
The other two people that promised to come didn’t show up either. Maybe they had met some dangers along their way. Li Huowang hated traitors more than enemies.
“Zhao Lei, I never thought it would be you. What did they give you? Do you really think you can live happily after becoming their dog? Didn’t they take your special powers too?” Chen Hongyu approached him with a pained expression on her face. She blocked Zhao Lei’s escape path using her massive frame.
The others surrounded Zhao Lei too. Zhao Lei looked at them with dilated eyes. “You can’t blame me! Why are you guys only blaming me?! All of you let me down first! I had to protect myself!”
“Let you down?” Li Huowang laughed. “I’ve just met you today. Tell me, how did I let you down?”
“Fake! Everything’s fake!” Zhao Lei saw the blood in his palms and continued to press on his injured eyes.
“What’s fake? Stop trying to push the responsibility away here! I can see through you and know whether you are actually crazy or not!” Li Huowang shouted and pointed his cleaver at Zhao Lei.
“You don’t understand! We’ve met before! You took my stuff first! Don’t blame me for it!”
“Let’s talk it out! No need to fight against each other. We’ve known each other for so long.” Wu Qi tried to stop them from quarreling.
“Stop trying to fool me!” Zhao Lei shouted. “If it wasn’t because of the common threat coming from outside, you all would’ve never worked together! I still remember what each and every one of you did to me last time! Do you really think that we are a loving family? What’s wrong? Cat got your tongue? If you don’t want to admit it, I will say it out loud!
As the fumes filled up the room, everyone in the room began coughing and struggling to see.
“Nana!” Li Huowang quickly moved towards Yang Na. He felt her soft body and pulled her down as they moved towards the corner of the basement.
Li Huowang coughed and said, “Quick, give me your taser! Squat down near the corner of the wall and don’t raise your head!”
“Mmm!”
Li Huowang remained composed, holding the cleaver and taser. He freed one hand to pinch his nose.
When the smoke thinned out a little, Li Huowang gritted his teeth and charged towards the people descending into the basement.
Zap! Li Huowang tased one of the people entering the basement.
He saw the person falling down and twitching on the ground before he charged at the other people. He wasn’t sure how many enemies there were. He focused on the one in front of him, bringing down one after another.
The fumes were dissipating. Li Huowang’s taser ran out of battery as he placed it on the neck of the next intruder. By then, he had already knocked many of them unconscious.
Crack! The intruder aimed the crossbow at Li Huowang’s thigh.
Li Huowang had no intention of dodging. He wanted to trade his injuries for the life of the intruder as he swung his cleaver towards the man’s neck.
“Huowang! Be careful!” Yang Na shouted.
He turned around and saw another man aiming a crossbow at the back of his head just two meters away!
The man had almost pressed the trigger, but then, there was the sound of a gunshot.
The man cried as his wrists were hit by the bullet. The crossbow in his hands also broke apart.
Li Huowang tried to find the source of the gunshot. He saw Qing Wanglai pinching his nose as he shot at the intruders with his gun. Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam!
