Chapter - 1004 Settle the Bill

"Bro Bei! We've been tricked by that idiot Umekawa Shichijiro!" Tanaka Tsuyoshi's voice came over the phone. He sounded agitated.

"What happened?" Chen Xiaoebei asked.

"I followed Umekawa Shichijiro to his house to retrieve the Spiritual Stones from his vault." Tanaka Tsuyoshi said, "It took us ages to locate their mansion. And when we got to the door of the vault, the idiot told me that he didn't have the keys! Tell me he's not messing with us?!"

Chen Xiaobei said, "Send his address to me and I'm coming over now!"

"Alright! I'll send it to you now!" Tanaka Tsuyoshi thought for a while before asking, "Wouldn't that affect your operation over there?"

"No, I have the Somersault Cloud. I'll be back before the sun is up!" Chen Xiaobei replied as-a-matter-of-factly.

When he got the address, Chen Xiaobei summoned the Somersault Cloud and disappeared into the darkness.

......

The mansion was located on the hill in the outskirts of Tokyo.

Considering that the entire hill belonged to the Umekawa Organization, no outsiders were allowed

It was dawn and there was not a shadow in the mansion.

Chen Xiaobei changed into Chen Zhufeng's mask.

In the dark, Chen Xiaobei followed Tanaka Tsuyoshi's instructions and snuck into the mansion's basement.

There were many different paths and traps in the basement. After a while, Chen Xiaobei finally found Tanaka Tsuyoshi.

"Bro Bei! You're finally here!"

Tanaka Tsuyoshi was more than happy to see the familiar face.

Chen Xiaobei nodded and looked at the Umekawa Shichijiro cowering in the corner.

"Mr. Chen… Save me… Your man kept hitting me just now… They want to kill me… Waaaa… Help me…"

Umekawa Shichijiro's was swollen like pig's head, red and bumpy! In fact, as he was talking, blood was dripping down the side of his lips. Tanaka Tsuyoshi had clearly given him a good beating!

"Bro Bei! This idiot is full of lies so I taught him a lesson!" Tanaka Tsuyoshi explained.

"Mr. Chen… I've already brought you to the door of the vault… How was I lying? You torture me like that… You've crossed the lime!" Umekawa Shichijiro gnashed his teeth, feeling wronged.

"No shit! We wronged you?" Tanaka Tsuyoshi's blood curdled. "You promised to give us the Spiritual Stones but you wouldn't open the door! How is that being honest? You're lucky you're still alive!"

"Hmph! If you kill me, you will never get your hands on the stones!"

Umekawa Shichijiro harrumphed, suddenly emboldened.

"You…" The corners of Tanaka Tusyoshi twitched. It was true that he did not dare to kill him yet. This was, after all, the matter of 1,300 Spiritual Stones and a vault. From what Tanaka Tsuyoshi could see, Chen Xiaobei was really set on getting his hands on this resource so he could not kill Umekawa Shichijiro.

Umekawa Shichijiro knew that too. That was why he was not afraid.

Why don't you tell us then, how could we open this door?"

Chen Xiaobei half-smiled.

"That's simple!" Umekawa Shichijiro's eyes lit up. He thought that Chen Xiaobei was going to compromise so he said excitedly, "Take out your phone and call my uncle! I'll ask him to bring the key and pay you the Spiritual Stones!"

"Idiot! Do you think I'm a child?" Tanaka Tsuyoshi burst out in anger, "Once we make the call, your uncle will come wielding katanas to kill us instead!"

Umekawa Shichijiro snorted and said, "If you don't believe me, then we can just sit here all day. My uncle will find us eventually!"

"You…"

Tanaka Tsuyoshi was speechless.

He could not kill him but he could not not kill him.

Seeing Umekawa Shichijiro's face really put Tanaka Tsuyoshi on edge!

"Tanaka," Chen Xiaobei called out. "Give him the phone so he can call his uncle."

"Bro Bei! Are you kidding me? Surely with your wisdom, you could see that this is just a ruse?!" Tanaka Tsuyoshi was very distressed. "Once he makes the call, we will be surrounded by the Umekawaan famiy's elites. Their guards are loaded with firearms! Once their firepower overpowers us, I don't think our True Kang will be able to protect us!"

"Just let him make the call!" Chen Xiaobei ordered flatly, "It's time to end the feud between me and the Umekawa!"

"Yes sir…"

Tanaka Tsuyoshi was reluctant but he obeyed Chen Xiaobei's ordered and handed the phone over to Umekawa Shichijiro.

"This…"

Umekawa Shichijiro was taken aback. He had not expected Chen Xiaobei to allow him to make the call.

"Go ahead. Tell your uncle…" Chen Xiaobei reached up and took down his mask. "… that Chen Xiaobei is here! And you Umekawas will perish!"

"You… You You You…"

Umekawa Shichijiro turned white as paper.

He knew that the feud between Chen Xiaobei and his family had reached a point of no return.

Now that Chen Xiaobei had revealed his identity, he would have to settle score now!

"Uncle! Bring your men to the vault… Chen Xiaobei is here! Yes! He's here! The one who killed cousin Umekawa Neiku! You must bring as many men as you can… Bring guns… And quick…" Umekawa said fretfully into the phone.

The person in the other end hung up almost immediately.

No doubt, preparations were taking place at Umekawa Osatake's.

"Chen Xiaobei, you refused to take the highway to heaven and now busted your wat into hell!" Umekawa Shichijiro smirked. "My uncle will be here soon! And he's bringing 30 ninjas and 100 armed bodyguards. This basement is your burial ground! Hahaha…"

"Shut your trap! Believe it or not, I will kill you!" Tanaka Tsuyoshi barked.

"No, I don't!" Umekawa Shichijiro gloated, "You didn't kill me just now, you won't kill me now! You still need a hostage to negotiate with my uncle! Killing me means that you're throwing away your bargaining chip!"

Tanaka Tsuyoshi's face turned steely, exasperated.

Suddenly, Chen Xiaobei did something completely unexpected!

Whoosh!

He drew his hand backward and hurled a golden beetle onto the door of the vault. It then started to chew, at lightning speed, on the ten centimeters thick metal.

Swoosh!

Out of nowhere, an invisible True Kang shot out of Chen Xiaobei's fingertips and pierced right into Umekawa Shichijiro's heart.

"You… How dare you kill me…"

Umekawa Shichijiro's pupils contracted and his lips parted, a look of disbelief affixed on his face.
