My beautiful CEO wife

Chapter 1899: Tell Me, Who Are You!

"Is what you’re saying really true?"

"In Zhonghai City, is there really a liaison point for your Demon God Sect?"

Xiao Zheng frowned and asked.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Hu nodded and said, "I absolutely didn’t lie. Half a year ago, I did come to Zhonghai City. At that time, I received a task from above, asking me to deliver something to Zhonghai City."

"It was then that I went to the liaison point."

Deliver something?

Xiao Zheng raised his eyebrows, couldn’t help but curiously ask, "Do you remember what you delivered at the time?"

"I don’t know, I was just responsible for running errands," Zhao Hu said bitterly, "Although my status is decent among the outer circle members, in the end, I’m just an outer circle member."

"How could I dare to open what the sect asked me to deliver?"

"But even though I didn’t open the package, I can confirm that it was a box."

After hearing his words, Xiao Zheng and the others couldn’t help but roll their eyes.

What Zhao Hu said was as if he hadn’t said anything at all.

Knowing that he couldn’t get any more useful information from him, Xiao Zheng said, "Alright, stop talking nonsense. Just tell me the address of the liaison point."

Zhao Hu quickly reported a location.

The place he mentioned counted as an old district within Zhonghai City, quite secluded. The buildings there are almost all products of the last century, long worn with age. Unless one lives there, outsiders rarely visit.

After noting the address silently, Xiao Zheng said to Long Qie and others, "Watch him closely, don’t let him die. If the information he gave me is wrong, wait for me to come back and kill him myself."

"I swear, what I said is true!" Zhao Hu was immediately scared colorless.

Xiao Zheng, however, no longer paid any attention to him and directly left the dungeon.

After walking out of the headquarters, he quickly drove away.

An hour and a half later, Xiao Zheng arrived at the destination.

The surrounding scenery formed a stark contrast with the prosperity one finds elsewhere in Zhonghai City. All around were low-rise houses, and even some very aged buildings, making people feel temporarily as if they had traveled back a dozen years.

Xiao Zheng parked his car by the roadside and then walked towards the end of the street.

If Zhao Hu wasn’t lying, the liaison point of the Demon God Sect in Zhonghai City was located at the end of this street. It was a shop specializing in funeral items, rarely visited.

Just this point is indeed useful for serving as a liaison point.

The shop was connected with a residence, forming a two-section courtyard; the front for business, the back for living quarters.

Xiao Zheng came to the shop’s entrance, glanced in, and found only an old shopkeeper inside, rocking in a chair, seemingly asleep. Apart from the old shopkeeper, no one else could be seen.

However, he still activated his X-ray vision, wanting to see the scene furthest inside.

What surprised and pleased Xiao Zheng was that his vision was unexpectedly blocked by an invisible force. Moreover, the power felt familiar; he had sensed it on the Black Robed Faceless Man previously.

"It can be confirmed!"

"This shop is indeed Demon God Sect’s territory!"

Xiao Zheng withdrew his gaze and then walked into the store without hesitation.

Seemingly hearing the commotion at the door, the old shopkeeper slowly opened his eyes. After appraising Xiao Zheng up and down, he asked, "Young man, what do you want to buy?"

"I don’t plan on buying anything; I just decided to come in and have a look," Xiao Zheng replied with a smile.

Upon hearing this, the old shopkeeper also smiled and then got up and said, "This shop of mine is not a place just anyone can come into, there are taboos. You’re young, if you don’t want trouble, you’d better leave soon."

After speaking, he turned his back, preparing to walk into the counter, shuffling along.

"What if I insist on coming in? Are you going to forcibly throw me out?" Xiao Zheng paused and then asked with a half-smile, "You open your doors doing business, yet don’t allow customers to enter. Are you running some shady operation?"

"Shady operation? No, not really. I’ve been running this shop for over thirty years, still have a good reputation," the old shopkeeper chuckled, "But sometimes, guests must be treated differently."

"Young man, if you don’t leave now, it’ll be too late."

Xiao Zheng seemed as if he hadn’t heard the warning in his words, brusquely sat down to the side, and then laughed, saying, "I’m quite peculiar; the things others tell me not to do, I insist on doing."

"I have to admit, old man, this chair is quite comfortable to sit on."

The old shopkeeper chuckled, a flash of murderous intent appearing in his eyes.

Immediately, the shop’s front door closed, completely blocking external sight.

Xiao Zheng remained indifferent, even showing a grin on his face. "Good move, shutting the door indeed makes handling things easier. I wonder, old man, what position you have within the Demon God Sect?"

"That’s none of your concern. If you insist on courting death, you can’t blame me," the old shopkeeper seemed to transform, his imposing aura suddenly domineering, completely unlike a man over seventy.

With just one step, he dashed from behind the counter straight to Xiao Zheng’s side.

Then he swung a punch, directly targeting Xiao Zheng’s vital points!

Upon seeing this, Xiao Zheng’s eyes flashed with a trace of compassion, then without any noticeable special movement, he casually reached out and easily grabbed the old shopkeeper’s wrist.

"How is this possible!"

The old shopkeeper’s heart was shocked.

He completely didn’t expect Xiao Zheng’s strength to be so formidable!

However, having clearly experienced many battles, even though one hand was under Xiao Zheng’s control, the old shopkeeper didn’t give up, quickly changing tactics, his left hand employed a poisoned needle unbeknownst to others, fiercely aiming at Xiao Zheng’s temple!

"If I were you, I definitely wouldn’t continue resisting and struggling."

Without even glancing at the attack, Xiao Zheng raised a hand and casually, but forcefully, slapped the old shopkeeper.

The old shopkeeper let out a miserable scream, directly slapped flying by Xiao Zheng’s hand!

Bam!

The old shopkeeper’s body slammed hard against the wall!

Fortunately, it was a concrete wall; otherwise, it would have collapsed!

Collapsing to the ground, the old shopkeeper writhed in pain, convulsively shaking, resembling a cooked shrimp, his body curled up in agony.

"Tell me your identity."

Xiao Zheng stood over him, asking.

Encased within his words, a touch of non-negotiable dominance and sharpness!
