BXBX NOVEL Chapter 489 - 489: The Vote
“Bao Peimin, how many more times are you going to stand up for him? You’re always protecting Ye Chen. I’m really curious, what exactly is your relationship? Could it be that Ye Chen is your illegitimate child?”
When Bao Peimin heard this, he was so angry that he slammed the table!
Pa!
“Fang Zhenye, what are you talking about? I’m not helping Ye Chen. I just don’t agree with your way of doing things!”
“Guardians are meant to protect our homeland, not your tool to kill others! Also, you clearly have the power to kill Ye Chen. Why don’t you take the initiative to kill him yourself? Are you trying to drag all of us down with your madness?”
Bao Peimin was determined to protect Ye Chen, and no longer cared about falling out with Fang Zhenye.
Instantly, the entire roundtable meeting exploded into an uproar.
Everyone watched as Fang Zhenye and Bao Peimin argued. They had not thought much of Ye Chen at first, but now it seemed that Ye Chen was not as simple as they had imagined.
Fang Zhenye was about to stand up and say something when Sun Miao, who had been quiet all this while, spoke up.
“I believe that everyone here has already understood what happened. The documents on the table also detail how the matter unfolded.”
“The evidence that Ye Chen killed two guardians should be conclusive. The only problem is the motive. People have the right to protect themselves, and Ye Chen is no exception. If he killed the Guardians to protect himself, then everything makes sense.”
“Whether it is right or wrong, I believe everyone already has an answer in their hearts.”
“There’s no need to argue over this matter any longer. Fang Zhenye and Bao Peimin, you two can say one final piece, then we’ll vote. If this continues, I don’t know when it’ll end.”
Sun Miao’s words made everyone quiet down.
Bao Peimin glanced at Fang Zhenye and said coldly, “First off, in the previous battle, it was the guardian who violated the rules first! The evidence was conclusive in this regard! He deserved to be killed! Secondly, Yuan Bilan’s death is suspicious. Perhaps only Fang Zhenye knows why he left Jiang Dao Mountain at such an important time before the meeting! I don’t think there’s anything wrong with Ye Chen’s handling of this matter!”
“Furthermore, if Ye Chen is given a few more years to grow, he will be fully qualified to sit in our current positions! I’m done!”
Bao Peimin sat down directly. He saw that his companions were already nodding and exhaled. He had to avoid the outcome of Fang Zhenye winning the vote.
Fang Zhenye’s fingers tapped lightly on the table as a confident smile appeared on his face.
“I have nothing to say. I only have one request. Not only must Ye Chen die, but the people around him must also die, including his parents, friends, and his subordinates.”
“If we don’t kill these people, it might not be long before there’s a second Ye Chen… When cutting grass, you have to remove the roots!”
A cruel smile appeared on Fang Zhenye’s face.
When Sun Miao saw that the two of them had finished speaking, he said, “Everyone, let’s vote. As usual, those who support Ye Chen’s death press the red button. Those who oppose press the green button in front of you.”
At the same time, sixteen red lights flashed!
Other than Sun Miao and Bao Peimin, who had yet to press a button, almost everyone supported Ye Chen’s death!
Bao Peimin was stunned. He realized that the people who had promised to support Ye Chen with him had changed their stances.
Perhaps he could understand the change in attitude of those people, but Elder Wan, who was beside him, also supported this proposal?
Elder Wan was Bao Peimin’s best friend!
Elder Wan noticed Bao Peimin’s gaze and said, “I’m sorry. This time, I’m on Fang Zhenye’s side. Ye Chen is an unwanted variable. Even if this child may achieve extraordinary things in the future, the difference between his achievements and how dangerous he is to us is too great.”
“If we don’t kill Ye Chen, the guardians won’t be at peace. I’m doing this for your own good.”
Bao Peimin was furious. He had never thought that someone would betray him!
He had wanted to save Ye Chen, but now it seemed impossible!
Even if he and Sun Miao voted against it, what use was it?
Fang Zhenye smiled. There was a smile of victory on his face.
“Bao Peimin, the roundtable meeting is over. You can’t change our decision.”
“Since that’s the case, let’s split up. I’ll take some people to kill Ye Chen, while the rest of you wipe out those around him!”
“As far as I know, there’s a woman named Wei Ying in Xiangjiang City who has a close relationship with him. Kill all of the other women, including his mother, Jiang Rong! Leave no one alive.”
“We have to end this quickly. We can’t delay it!”
Fang Zhenye’s cold voice echoed in the wind.
Sun Miao frowned. He felt that Fang Zhenye’s way of handling things was a little too much, but some things were already set in stone. It was impossible for him to stop them even if he wanted to.
Geniuses who did not know how to restrain themselves would die in the future even if they did not die today. Fang Zhenye had only brought forward the date of Ye Chen’s death.
Thus, he did not feel any pity for Ye Chen.
Just as all the guardians stood up and were about to leave, a young man covered in blood rushed up.
“Not good! Someone… Someone is coming!”
Fang Zhenye’s pupils suddenly constricted. He grabbed the young man by the neck and asked, “What did you say? Who’s coming?”
“Ye…” Before the young man could finish speaking, a cold gleam cut through the air and pierced the young man’s body!
Fang Zhenye’s expression changed drastically.
This young man was his subordinate. Who would have thought that someone would dare to kill his subordinate in front of him?
Everyone else looked over in shock, as the sound of approaching footsteps were heard loud and clear amidst the deathly silent atmosphere.
Gradually, a cold and arrogant figure appeared in front of all the guardians, holding a blood-stained sword in his hand. A bloody aura surged around him, and his eyes were extremely cold.
It was Ye Chen!
No one expected Ye Chen to come knocking on their door! Was this kid not courting death?
Sun Miao’s eyes narrowed slightly, and a hint of surprise appeared on his face.
He could sense the fiendish aura around Ye Chen’s body.
Just how many people had this kid killed?
Could it be that this person walked the path of slaughter?
If that was really the case, it would not be unjust to kill him. Those who walked this path to the extreme could even be called demons..
