905: Chapter 894: The Betrayal of the Shadow Guard 905: Chapter 894: The Betrayal of the Shadow Guard In one of Umbrella’s strongholds in New York City, battle was about to erupt.
Dozens of identically dressed Shadow Guards charged toward Ning Fan and his companions.
Seeing Ning Fan and his group surrounded by Shadow Guards, Konstantin chuckled triumphantly: “In the end, I’m the one who outmaneuvered everyone, Teng Yun Ge Shang!”
Luckily, he had suspected the Shadow Guards around him; otherwise, he wouldn’t have realized that his movements had been continuously exposed to Ning Fan and his group.
Catching the traitor was how he confirmed Ning Fan’s location, which led Konstantin to decide to strike proactively—to deliver a fatal blow to Ning Fan.
“Lord Konstantin, once we’ve dealt with the matters in New York City, our next opponent will be Lord Teng Yun Ge Shang…”
Broken Blade reminded him from the side.
Teng Yun Ge Shang was also a formidable figure, and with the events in New York City, they seemed to have completely torn off their masks.
But Konstantin dismissed it without concern, saying, “That guy has already lost.
From the moment I saw through his plan, he was finished!”
Clearly, Konstantin was at the peak of his confidence.
He seemed even more elated than the first time he ascended to the position of Umbrella’s leader.
Teng Yun Ge Shang had once been his closest friend but had now become his greatest rival.
Defeating Teng Yun Ge Shang carried immense significance for Konstantin.
To him, this victory was more important than becoming Umbrella’s number one.
Now, he had finally won.
Once this matter was resolved, it would be time to deal with Teng Yun Ge Shang, and Umbrella would completely fall into his hands.
His power would climb to new heights, truly reaching the pinnacle of life!
“As for those Jews, I won’t let them off.
They’ve definitely been colluding with Teng Yun Ge Shang, and they’ll pay the price for it!”
Konstantin hissed fiercely, though his expression had become somewhat intoxicated with their impending downfall.
Broken Blade chuckled upon hearing this and added, agreeing, “Indeed, indeed.
Allow me to congratulate Lord Konstantin in advance!”
“Hahaha!”
Konstantin laughed heartily, his gaze once again shifting to Ning Fan and the trio amidst the crowd.
“Huh?”
Konstantin frowned in confusion as he realized Ning Fan and his group hadn’t yet been subdued.
At that moment, a cold glimmer rose behind Konstantin, and Broken Blade suddenly raised his weapon, aiming directly for Konstantin’s throat.
A sharp gleam flashed in Konstantin’s eyes as he suddenly erupted: “Broken Blade, so you’ve also been bought by Teng Yun Ge Shang?!”
He quickly turned, grabbing the dagger in Broken Blade’s hand and landing a punch on his opponent.
Just then, Broken Blade’s subordinates turned on the Shadow Guards nearby, plunging the scene into chaos.
Meanwhile, Ning Fan and his companions were left utterly bewildered.
Even Fei Peilie couldn’t help but mumble, “So the true culprit was him all along!”
Fei Peilie had always thought the man Teng Yun Ge Shang referred to was the executed Shadow Guard.
But the twist—that Teng Yun Ge Shang’s hidden contingency was none other than Konstantin’s top enforcer, Broken Blade—caught them off guard.
Broken Blade retreated, evading Konstantin’s attack, and sighed, “I’m sorry, Lord Konstantin.”
“Why?
Why!?
Why would you betray me?
What did Teng Yun Ge Shang offer you?!”
Konstantin stared at Broken Blade in disbelief, unable to accept the reality that his most trusted enforcer had been bought by Teng Yun Ge Shang.
When had this betrayal taken root?
Broken Blade shook his head and replied mockingly, “Lord Konstantin, no one wants to remain in the shadows forever.
I refuse to endure it anymore.
So, I chose this path to change my fate!”
“…So you chose to betray me?”
“This isn’t betrayal.
Broken Blade is already dead.
From now on, there will be no more Broken Blade in this world!”
Clearly, Broken Blade had abandoned his identity.
He would no longer be a man of shadows.
The codename “Broken Blade” would dissipate with the wind and disappear forever.
He would step into the light, no longer confined to the shadowy corners of the world.
“What an ironic Broken Blade, what a ‘dead’ Broken Blade.
I never imagined I’d misjudge you.
Broken Blade, you deserve death—you deserve it!”
Konstantin glared furiously at Broken Blade, overwhelmed by the profound agony of betrayal by the one he trusted most.
At that moment, another cold glimmer suddenly rose behind Konstantin.
Without warning, it descended, slicing away a fragment of his collar.
“I don’t know if he deserves to die, but it seems like you’re the one fated to die today!”
Ning Fan sneered, his eyes brimming with lethal intent.
Konstantin’s earlier words replayed in his mind.
Letting him live would only endanger those close to Ning Fan, so for their safety, Ning Fan would not allow Konstantin to walk away alive!
“Lord Konstantin, my apologies, but since I failed earlier, I’ll let Ning Fan handle it now.
Dying by Ning Fan’s blade suits you best!”
Broken Blade spoke as he immediately joined the Shadow Guards’ internal strife, leading his men to slaughter those loyal to Konstantin one by one.
Dying by Broken Blade’s hand was different from perishing under Ning Fan’s sword; the distinction was significant.
It was also why Teng Yun Ge Shang wasn’t willing to kill Konstantin directly.
Konstantin, his eyes blood-red, watched Broken Blade leave, then turned to Ning Fan: “Ning Fan, do you think you’ve won?
The one who defeated me isn’t you—it’s Teng Yun Ge Shang!”
Yes, he hadn’t been bested by Ning Fan but by Teng Yun Ge Shang.
For a bizarre reason, Konstantin found solace in this thought.
Konstantin didn’t want to admit defeat to Ning Fan.
Losing to Teng Yun Ge Shang, his greatest rival, was far preferable to losing to Ning Fan, who he regarded as merely opportunistic.
Ning Fan looked at him in pity and unexpectedly laughed: “I don’t care who you think you lost to.
All that matters is you’re already a dead man!”
Ning Fan didn’t care about Konstantin’s rationalizations.
Those details were meaningless to him.
To Ning Fan, Konstantin’s existence was what mattered.
The threats he posed weren’t just one or two incidents.
Ning Fan would have relished slicing off Konstantin’s head to use it as a ball!
“Hmph!
You think you can kill me?
It won’t be that easy.
You’re coming down the Yellow Springs Road with me!”
Konstantin glared at Ning Fan with madness in his eyes.
Seeming to accept his fate, he unleashed incredible strength before death, determined to drag Ning Fan to the grave alongside him!
“Good!
Let’s see what tricks you still have up your sleeve when you’re knocking on death’s door!”
“Hahaha, Ning Fan, join me down the Yellow Springs Road!”
Konstantin’s garments burst apart, revealing his muscular upper body as his skin began to harden!
