He had already spent ten days waiting here.
So Mochizuki Kawa had genuinely lost his patience and didn't want to waste his time here.
After Mochizuki Kawa defeated Tong Shan, his eyes landed on Xu Lei once again.
"I didn't think so many people would pop up to interfere when I want to kill a woman. No one else is going to save you now, right? Miss Xu, it's time to face the music. The ten day deadline is up, and you are out of time. I told you. If he doesn't turn up, you will die."
His calm voice was filled was indifference towards life.
For grandmasters like Mochizuki Kawa standing at the summit of success and power, taking lives was a mundane affair.
No one knew how many blood and lives Mochizuki Kawa's sword had claimed on his path to success.
It was as though Mochizuki Kawa just gave Xu Lei a death sentence as he spoke.
He gradually raised his arm as he stood at the lake's center.
Everyone pitifully sighed when they saw this happening from the lakeside of Dongchang Lake.
"Beautiful women suffer tragic deaths from time immemorial. It looks like this stunning woman will meet her end today too," lamented someone as he shook his head.
"Mr Chu is such a douchebag!Even a bodyguard knows it's his duty to protect his master. But what about him? His wife was held hostage for ten days, but he kept hiding like a coward. Now that she is about to get finished off, he is still hiding like a chicken. Can he call himself a man? Is he fit to be King of Jiangdong? He's worse than a pig!" shouted someone furiously.
"Haha! Ye Fan, this is retribution! This is sheer karma! You were so cocky at the opening of Mufan Real Estate and when you destroyed Qiushui Logistics. But look what happened in the end? Times have changed and so has your fate. Now you will finally lose all reputation! By the time all this is over, it will be impossible for you to stay in Jiangdong," chuckled Chu Wen-Fei as he gloated.
Everyone at the lake was in an uproar as they bore witness to Ye Fan's cowardice.
Tears welled in Qiu Mu-Cheng's eyes from guilt. She wanted to run over and tell Mochizuki Kawa the truth that she was Yee Fan's wife and save Xu Lei.
But Li Er and the others pulled her back hard and didn't let her go.
After all, Qiu Mu-Cheng was Ye Fan's wife.
If any mishap befell Qiu Mu-Cheng, how would they answer to Ye Fan when he came back?
Moreover, Qiu Mu-Cheng would be incapable of saving Xu Lei and end up endangering herself, given how powerful Mochizuki Kawa was.
So they naturally had to stop Qiu Mu-Cheng from going over.
"But how can I stand on the sidelines and watch Miss Xu die in my place?"
Qiu Mu-Cheng's heart was filled with guilt, helplessness, sorrow, and all kinds of emotions.
Even Su Qian was anxious and worried.
"That stupid Ye Fan. Why isn't he here yet? He had the balls to stand up and defend Jiangdong at Mount Tai. Why doesn't he have the guts to protect his woman now?" shouted Su Qian anxiously in fury.
Despite being completely unacquainted with Xu Lei, even He Yu-Rou couldn't help feeling sad watching the ravishing Xu Lei get executed.
He Yu-Rou's eyes went red as she begged Chen Ao, "Uncle Chen, can't you do something and save her? She's so young, pretty and her life has barely begun. How can she just die?"
Since He Yu-Rou was particularly kindhearted, she couldn't help crying as she spoke.
No one in Jiangdong was capable of opposing Mochizuki Kawa, and even Mr Chu hid cowardly. What else could Chen Ao do?
So Chen Ao could only sigh when He Yu-Rou implored him with sorrow.
His eyes were filled with powerlessness and pity.
"It's useless. No one else in Jiangdong other than Mr Chu can handle Mochizuki Kawa," sighed Chen Ao softly.
Chen Ao made no mention that even with Mr Chu around, he wasn't certain whether Mr Chu could defeat Mochizuki Kawa.
After all, everyone keenly understood how much stronger Mochizuki Kawa was compared to Wu He-Rong after the earlier battles.
