My Ares Son-in-Law

Bai Maogong continued, "There's really no need for us to make such a fuss. After all, I didn't cause any bad consequences, right? Lin Youya is fine, nothing happened. If you let me go, we can each take a step back and keep our distance from each other. Isn't that a happy ending for everyone?"

Bai Maogong's words were full of compromise and concession. He knew that his current situation was extremely critical and he could die on the spot if he was not careful. Therefore, he tried his best to persuade Xiao Chen to give up chasing him.

As if the previous proposal was not strong enough, Bai Maogong hastily added, with a hint of urgency in his voice:

"If you think one hundred million is not enough, that's okay, I can give you more. How about ten thousand spirit stones? This is not an ordinary currency. For a warrior, spirit stones are a necessity for cultivation. Ten thousand spirit stones are enough to make your cultivation advance by leaps and bounds.

Moreover, I will no longer cause trouble for you and Lin Youya, and we will write off all previous matters. From now on, we will not interfere with each other and pretend that we have never met. How about that?"

Bai Maogong's eyes were full of expectation and pleading. He hoped that this generous offer would impress Xiao Chen and make him let him go. However, Xiao Chen did not retract his hand. His fingers were still firmly placed on Bai Maogong's brow, as if he could end Bai Maogong's life at any time.

Xiao Chen raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a sneer, his eyes full of ridicule and disdain:
"Of course I've heard of the Black Hawk Company. Over the years, they have committed many murders around the world, using cruel and outrageous methods. They even accidentally killed a warrior from our Dragon Country. Although they claimed that it was an accidental killing, who in the outside world doesn't know that they did it on purpose? Humph, when you talk about them, I want to kill you even more."

The moment the words fell, Xiao Chen's fingers suddenly pushed forward, as if there was an invisible force pushing him, and there seemed to be a tiny ripple in the air.

Whoosh!
A terrifying energy suddenly surged into Bai Maogong's mind like a surging wave. This energy brought endless pressure and chill, as if it was going to completely freeze Bai Maogong's soul.

At that moment, Bai Maogong felt like he was being dragged into an endless dark abyss, surrounded by despair and fear. He seemed to be in purgatory, enduring all kinds of tortures in the eighteen levels of hell, and every moment was like being pierced by thousands of arrows, in excruciating pain.

His mind was filled with all kinds of horrific illusions, and every scene made him terrified, as if he was really experiencing these painful tortures.

When it was all over, Bai Maogong had collapsed to the ground, as if he had lost all his strength. His eyes were empty, revealing endless fear and despair, and his body was trembling, as if he was extremely frightened and was about to go crazy.

Although there were no external injuries, his face was covered with sweat, his lips were pale and colorless, and he looked like he had returned from hell, with endless fear and despair.

Xiao Chen looked at Bai Maogong coldly, with a sinister smile on his face. His voice was deep and powerful: "If you want to survive, there is only one possibility, and that is to find out Mr. Jin's true identity. Otherwise, let alone your daughter, even if all the experts of Black Hawk Company come, you will still die. Remember, this is your only way to survive, cherish it."

Xiao Chen's words were filled with endless threats and murderous intent, like a sharp dagger that pierced deeply into Bai Maogong's heart.

Bai Maogong's body trembled even more violently. He knew that he had no way out. The only way to save his life was to follow Xiao Chen's instructions. "I'll check, I'll check, I'll do my best." Bai Maogong's voice trembled a little. He was really scared. That kind of inhuman pain was a hundred times more painful than killing him directly.

Everything he had just experienced kept echoing in his mind. The fear and despair made him unable to even stand up.

Xiao Chen looked at Bai Maogong with a satisfied smile on his face. "That's right. He who knows the current situation is a hero. Don't worry, as long as you are obedient, I won't make things difficult for you."

After Xiao Chen finished speaking, he stood up, straightened his clothes, and continued, "I don't have much time to waste, so I'll give you seven days. Within seven days, I want to get solid information about Mr. Jin's true identity and whereabouts. Otherwise, you'll have to wait to see the King of Hell, and I won't show you mercy."

After saying that, Xiao Chen disappeared without a trace, as if he had disappeared like a gust of wind. Bai Maogong was left lying on the ground alone, not daring to move for a long time. He didn't know if Xiao Chen had really left. At this moment, he was filled with fear and anxiety, and didn't dare to act rashly.

Time seemed to freeze at this moment. After a full half hour, Bai Maogong finally plucked up the courage, carefully raised his head, and looked around.

After confirming that Xiao Chen had really left, he slowly stood up and walked to the sofa beside him and sat down. At this moment, his whole body was trembling, as if he had just walked through the gates of hell.

After a long while, Bai Maogong finally calmed down. With trembling hands, he carefully took out his cell phone and called his daughter Bai Shiqing. The moment the call was connected, his voice was choked with sobs: "Qing'er, it's me... Dad..."

There was some excitement in Bai Shiqing's voice, as if she was looking forward to sharing something with her father: "Dad, call me if you have anything? Are you missing me again?" Her tone was full of attachment and expectation to her father.

However, Bai Maogong's answer broke the silence. He panted heavily, his voice carrying an unprecedented difficulty and heaviness: "Daughter, I might die. Someone wants to kill me!"

Bai Shiqing's voice suddenly became nervous and hurried: "Dad, what's wrong with you? Where are you? Tell me quickly, I'll be there right away!" Her tone was full of worry and fear, as if she was ready to rush out to find her father at any time.

Bai Maogong took a deep breath and tried to make his voice sound more stable. However, his words were still full of fear and helplessness:
"Daughter, I have been through so many things these past few days. It was like a nightmare. Someone threatened me and gave me only seven days to investigate Mr. Jin's identity and whereabouts. But I don't know any Mr. Jin at all, and it is impossible to find him in such a short time. Besides, I can't swallow this breath. I want this kid to die!"

At this point, Bai Maogong's voice was filled with anger and unwillingness. He seemed to see his own future fate, which was filled with darkness and despair. (End of this chapter)
