Chapter 1334: I’m not Going to Threaten You

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“I’m sorry, Mr. Chen. I can’t do that yet,” Stanford said. “You probably already know this, but Professor Lin’s research has only neared the final stage. It’s not actually completed yet. You and Mr. Xiang will have to stay in America until we complete everything!”

“What? That was not the deal!” Chen Xiaobei spat. “I suggest you don’t go back on your words!”

“Hehe! Mr. Chen really has quite the sense of humour! America is a powerful country and we are not afraid of warring. I am going back on my words indeed. Now what are you going to do about that?”

Stanford looked at Chen Xiaobei unambiguously.

This was exactly like that old proverb that said: if one’s face is thick enough, one can achieve everything in this world!

He told Chen Xiaobei in the face that he had backtracked on the deal! As if that wasn’t enough, he even taunted Chen Xiaobei! It was rare that a person’s face could reach such a degree of thickness!

Of course, Chen Xiaobei appeared angry on the surface, but he had already expected this to happen and he was not surprised at all.

This was about a country’s dominance over the sea for the next 10 or maybe even 100 years. Had it been another country, they too would have pursued relentlessly to acheive their goals.

Most importantly, this was the United States of America!

On home ground, Stanford could do whatever he liked. He also knew that Chen Xiaobei could do nothing about it.

“I’m not pleased with your attitude!” Chen Xiaobei’s face darkened. Even though he had already expected this to happen, Stanford’s attitude had really rubbed him off.

“Hehe… I can point you to the right way if you want something good from it!” Stanford smiled. “If you can successfully convince Professor Lin to pledge his allegiance to America, I can personally guarantee that the both of you will reap huge benefits! Status, power, and wealth enough for a lifetime! Even the president and I would treat you with great respect. Think about it!”

“You want us to sell out our country? Dream on!” Chen Xiaobei barked.

Stanford just smiled at his response. “It’s alright. We have time. Take you time to think about it, Mr. Chen. The conditions I’ve laid out have no expiry. If you can convince the professor, I will make sure that you get everything I’ve promised you!”

“Don’t try to sugarcoat your words! If you don’t want to release Xiangyu, at least let me see him.”

“I’m sorry, I can’t do that!” Stanford shook his head, and said. “I’m afraid Mr. Xiang is currently unavailable!”

“Unavailable? Didn’t you say he’s fine? Don’t tell me you were lying too.”

Chen Xiaobei furrowed his brows, his darkend eyes now red with anger.

He could tolerate Stanford revoking the deal. It was to be only expected. But he would definitely not allow Stanford to take back backtrack on Xiangyu’s safety.

He had always thought that the Americans would keep Xiangyu safe in order to get their hands on the research. It had never crossed Chen Xiaobei’s mind that Xiangyu’s safety would be compromised even after they had gotten what they wanted!

“I must apologize. I have lied to you!” Stanford chuckled. “Xiangyu is now in a terrible condition. He may not be able to survive the night. But since you’re already here in America, he is now useless, don’t you think?”

Bam!!!

Chen Xiaobei’s pent up anger exploded. He slammed the table and thick glass shattered.

“If anything happens to Bro Yu, I will wipe out all American Officials!”

“Heh, Hehehe. Mr. Chen! That’s a really funny joke!”

Instead of getting angry, Stanford smiled, “We, the Americans have faced countless powerful enemies! Still, we stand strong! Even China has to surrender to us! Do you really think that you can threaten us?! Hehehe…”

“You have three seconds to tell me where Xiangyu is!” Chen Xiaobei barked.

“One, two, three! Time’s up! Sp what are you going to do huh?” Stanford looked at Chen Xiaobei haughtily. “Take a look at where you are standing! I know you have some kind of cultivation going on for you, but this is S.H.I.E.L.D’s secret base! Powerful elites are everywhere! You can’t threaten me!”

“Oh, really?”

Chen Xiaobei got out from his seat and walked past the broken table.

“What are you doing? If you hurt the vice president, you will die an ugly death!” The middle-aged man shouted.

Bam!

Chen Xiaobei said nothing, before kicking him in the gut.

Thuck!

The man was thrown across the room like a cannonball, struck the wall which caved in upon impact.

“Bluerrgh!”

The man threw up a pool of blood mixed with pieces of flesh and screamed with his final breath, “Bloody murder!!!”

He was nothing but a normal man. When Chen Xiaobei kicked him, his insides exploded, which explained the pieces of flesh he regurgitated.

“You… How dare you kill…” Stanford’s face was completely drained of color. His voice trembled.

“I don’t dare! I really don’t dare! This is S.H.I.E.L.D’s secret base! I can’t threaten you!” Chen Xiaobei said mockingly as he picked up the laptop, pulled out the flash drive and dropped it into his pocket.

“Yes! This is S.H.I.E.L.D’s secret base! You cannot do this! Stay right there! Don’t you try to threaten me!”

Stanford exhaled and he could feel that something was not right.

“I’m not going to threaten you… I’m just going to cripple you!” Chen Xiaobei roared as he hurled the laptop at Stanford’s face.

Wham!

The hit sent Stanford flying sideways, his face completely destroyed.

“Argh! My face!” Stanford laid limp on the ground, the left half of his face bloody and unrecognizable. His bones were broken and his flesh was ripped. His left eyeball was literally falling out, twitching and hanging by a single nerve.

The searing pain caused him to scream.

He did not expect Chen Xiaobei to be undaunted by S.H.I.E.L.D, and even have the audacity to assault him.

“How does it feel? Is it good?” Chen Xiaobei looked down at Stanford and said, “I gave you three seconds. But you threw it away! Since you don’t want to save your face, I might as well destroy it!”

“Okay… Okay… I will tell you…”

Stanford looked frantically at Chen Xiaobei like he was a monster.

“Ah, now that’s much better…” Chen Xiaobei said. “Zaar was right. Only through power, would one succumb to you!”

Bam!

Suddenly, someone kicked the meeting room door open.

A large group of mutants charged in!
