“Let’s give it a try!” With a glint in his eyes, Si Xia raised his hand, and in an instant, countless dark muzzles and cannons were aimed at the crowd.
The people of the Independent State looked at these firearms, their faces turning pale.
“Damn! This Si Xia is insane! These weapons could destroy the entire Independent State.”
Under such tight security, the transportation of so many firearms indicated long-standing preparations.
If a fight broke out, they would all die here.
Si Xia coldly looked at the Arbitration Council and the various factions of the Independent State. “I’ll give you one last chance: submit to me or die!”
The people of the Independent State exchanged worried glances, their faces filled with panic.
“This lunatic! If we don’t obey him, he might actually blow everyone up!”
“Even the Arbitration Council can’t confront these guns and cannons!”
“What should we do…”
Si Xia raised the gun in his hand and pointed it at the slightly chubby leader of the Arbitration Council, smiling manically. “In the future, remember this well, I am the law in the Independent State!”
With that, he pulled the trigger.
“Ah—”
After a moment of shock, silence fell over the scene as everyone was enveloped in the shadow of death.
Even daring to attack members of the Arbitration Council, this man had truly gone mad!
“Si Xia—” Ye Wanwan cried out in shock.
After that shot, there was no turning back for Si Xia.
Everyone stared at the slightly chubby leader of the Arbitration Council.
However, the bloody scene they had expected did not unfold the next moment.
The council leader remained unharmed; the bullets had not harmed him in the slightest.
Si Xia stared at the gun in disbelief, firing several more shots, but the bullets seemed like toys, having no effect on anyone.
The bullets had been switched.
These bullets were fake, with no lethality.
“How could this… it’s impossible… this can’t be…” Si Xia threw away his gun and angrily called someone on his phone. “Yu Shao, get over here now! What’s going on with these guns and bullets!!!”
Yu Shao was the vice-president of the Martial Arts Alliance Guild and was deeply trusted by Si Xia. He was in charge of all weapons, but now, the weapons had malfunctioned, which meant…
Yu Shao had betrayed him!
At this moment, the slightly chubby council leader smiled and spoke, “I told you earlier, young man, not to be too arrogant!”
Just then, in the crowd, a man in a white suit wearing a silver mask stepped forward, drawing Si Xia’s intense gaze.
“Are you from the Arbitration Council?” Si Xia asked.
Si Xia never expected that his most trusted assistant would turn out to be a mole for the Arbitration Council.
“I’m sorry, President,” the masked man replied calmly.
Then, the masked man walked slowly towards the opposite camp from Si Xia, under the watchful eyes of everyone.
In front of everyone, Yu Shao approached Shura Master Si Ye Han, bowed respectfully, and said, “My lord, I have not failed your trust.”
