Chapter 74: Chapter 74: Legends of the King of the Underworld

Hajir gritted his teeth as cold sweat dripped from his forehead, but his gaze remained locked on Lin Kuang. He absolutely refused to believe that Lin Kuang was an ordinary man. Such ruthlessness, such clean efficiency—this was definitely not something an ordinary expert could accomplish!

“Who on earth are you?” Hajir demanded through clenched teeth.

“Do I need to tell you?” Lin Kuang asked with a smile, standing before him.

Hearing this, Hajir’s expression shifted, his eyes filled with disbelief. He asked again, “Who are you?!”

Seeing this, Lin Kuang shook his head helplessly. “Since you’re so desperate to know, I’ll tell you. In Europe, many pretenders use my title: the King of the Underworld.”

When Hajir heard Lin Kuang’s words, his pupils constricted. He was instantly reminded of an infamous and terrifying figure in Europe—a man called the King of the Underworld! He was the man who made the entire European underworld tremble, the one who had single-handedly wiped out Europe’s top Mercenary Corps in a single night. It was a battle record of one man against one hundred and seventy-six, a feat that struck fear and terror into everyone’s hearts! Hajir had never imagined that the young man before him was the legendary, terrifying King of the Underworld.

Looking at Lin Kuang’s smiling face, Hajir’s heart filled with bitterness, and yet, he laughed.

“To die at the hands of the King of the Underworld… For me, Hajir, this is a worthy end,” he said, his face showing no trace of fear. The moment he became a mercenary, he knew he would die one day.

Lin Kuang gave Hajir a smiling glance and then pulled the trigger.

A bullet hole tore through Hajir’s head. His eyes were shut tight, as if dying at the hands of the King of the Underworld had allowed him to find peace in death.

Seeing this, Lin Kuang picked up the large, custom Desert Eagle from the ground. Tossing it in his hand for a moment, Lin Kuang couldn’t help but nod with a smile. “A fine piece.”

With that, he tossed his Type 54 pistol aside and began to clean up the battlefield. He dragged the bodies next to the Land Rovers and then drained the gasoline from the three vehicles. After finishing these tasks, Lin Kuang drove away.

Once his car was more than a hundred meters away, he suddenly opened the window and threw a grenade out. It traced a graceful arc through the air before landing accurately amidst the pile of bodies and the gasoline.

BOOM!

A deafening explosion erupted. The three huge Land Rovers were instantly blown into the air, and a brilliant fireball illuminated the ruins. By this time, there was no longer any trace of Lin Kuang or the Mercedes.

Lin Kuang sped along the road without stopping. It was nearly two in the morning when he finally returned to the Liu Family residence. Parking the car in the courtyard, he went into his room.

After changing his clothes and taking a shower, Lin Kuang finally lay down on his bed. He checked his phone and saw two text messages from Fan Bingbing. Lin Kuang smiled and replied to one before falling into a deep sleep.

Although he went to bed very late, Lin Kuang still woke up on time at five-thirty in the morning. He got up, freshened up, and changed his clothes. Before six, he left the house and headed straight for the small square in the villa complex.

After a few laps, at 6:10 AM, Yang Ruoxi’s beautiful figure appeared right on cue. Seeing her arrive, the corners of Lin Kuang’s mouth lifted into a smile.

Yang Ruoxi also saw Lin Kuang, but she pointedly ignored him and began practicing Tai Chi on her own.

Seeing this, Lin Kuang rolled his eyes. He knew she was doing it on purpose. When Yang Ruoxi finished her Tai Chi, he finally walked over.

“Ruoxi, you’re getting more and more mischievous,” Lin Kuang said with a smile, looking at her lovely face.

“Hmph, ’mischievous’ isn’t the right word. I’m not a child anymore,” Yang Ruoxi grumbled, clearly dissatisfied with his choice of words. “Come on, let’s go back to my place.”

Lin Kuang shrugged helplessly and walked off with Yang Ruoxi, side by side.

Back at the Yang Family residence, Lin Kuang transferred True Qi into Yang Ruoxi for another half an hour before stopping. Downstairs, Yang Ruotong had already prepared breakfast. She smiled and called for them to come eat. However, her beautiful eyes seemed to hold a new, unspoken meaning as they rested on Lin Kuang.

Lin Kuang didn’t hold back and ate breakfast there before finally returning to the Liu Family residence.

At that moment, Liu Shilin was eating. Seeing Lin Kuang return, she couldn’t help but smile and ask, “You’re back, Lin Kuang. Have you eaten?”

“Yeah, I’ve already eaten,” Lin Kuang replied with a smile.

Hearing this, Liu Shilin simply nodded with a smile and said no more. Though she was very curious about where he ate breakfast every morning.

By eight o’clock, Lin Kuang was driving Liu Shilin to the Yashi Company. Today was Friday, and the weekend was just around the corner. However, the atmosphere in the company was grim, as everyone knew about Han Qiaoqiao’s threat from yesterday.

Sensing the mood, Lin Kuang didn’t say much. He believed that if Han Rong wasn’t going senile, he would restrain his son and daughter. Of course, if Han Rong really thought he could touch Yashi, Lin Kuang wouldn’t mind paying him a visit tonight and eliminating him.

Following Liu Shilin into the office, Lin Kuang sat quietly on the sofa. He had been a bit bored the last few days, but he was gradually getting used to this lifestyle. Besides, having a beautiful woman for company in the office meant it wasn’t lonely at all.

Liu Shilin was trying to handle company affairs, though her heart wasn’t in it. It was her company, after all, and despite her frustration, she had to soldier on.

Seeing the deep furrow in her elegant brow, Lin Kuang quietly walked over and made her a cup of coffee. He didn’t want to see a beautiful woman frowning; it marred her beauty.

“Shilin, have some coffee,” Lin Kuang said comfortingly. “And you don’t need to worry about the Han Family. Like I said, I’ll take care of it, so just relax. The Han Family won’t touch Yashi.”

Hearing his words, Liu Shilin paused for a moment before nodding with a slight smile. “Yes, I trust you. I’m just so frustrated.” She didn’t deny her trust in him, but she genuinely couldn’t feel happy when thinking about the Han Family, which loomed over her like a behemoth.

“If you truly trust me, you shouldn’t be worried about them,” Lin Kuang said playfully, his eyes fixed on her beautiful face. “Besides, a beautiful woman shouldn’t furrow her brow. You’ll get wrinkles.”

Feeling his gaze on her, a blush crept onto Liu Shilin’s cheeks, and her heart began to race.
