Chapter 22: Aftershocks of the "Dark Night" Bloodbath
——When the devil burned down a corner of his own empire with his own hands, the death knell was heard throughout Southeast Asia.
The "dark night" disappeared, and it really disappeared in the literal sense.
Seventy-two hours ago, the black building tucked away in the most secluded area of Bangkok was still shrouded in darkness, the luxury cars of the rich and powerful still drove into the underground garage late at night, and the auctioneer's hammer still struck at 10 p.m.
Its invitation letter is a symbol of identity, its barrier is an underground empire that even intelligence agencies of various countries are helpless against, and its fangs are a black zone that even Interpol is afraid to approach, all because its owner is Mo Xiaohan.
Even if he himself does not care, the existence of "Dark Night" itself represents an untouchable forbidden zone and is the most unshakable black symbol in Southeast Asia.
And seventy-two hours later, the behemoth that had once made the entire Southeast Asian elite both loved and feared, and even the government turned a blind eye to it, was reduced to scorched earth.
As the flames shot up into the sky, dyeing the water vapor of the Chao Phraya River crimson, the first military helicopter to arrive hovered three hundred meters in the air, its propellers churning up only scorching smoke and dust.
No one dared to land, no one dared to approach the ruins that were still emitting sparks.
It took the Southeast Asian underground world three full days to digest this news.
"Dark Night was bloodbathed?"
"Impossible! That's the tyrant's territory!"
"Who has the guts?"
"Who's crazy? How dare you touch Mo Xiaohan's 'Dark Night'?"
Rumors were like vines that wrapped around every shady corner, but no one dared to put the words "Mo Xiaohan" and "destruction" together.
At first, all parties thought that it was some ignorant new force that wanted to step on "Dark Night" to gain power, and some even waited with glee to see the invaders being tortured to death by Mo Xiaohan.
It wasn't until the fourth day that the truth was revealed like thunder.
It turns out that the one who destroyed "Dark Night" was none other than its real owner, Mo Xiaohan himself.
But, no one knows the reason.
All we know is that when dawn fell, "Dark Night" had become a ruin, and the top management, core members, guards, and even the guests that night, all disappeared overnight.
No interrogation, no negotiation, not even an explanation.
There was only blood, blood everywhere.
There was also a ruin that was completely burned by the fire, and the lingering smell of gunpowder in the air.
The powerful people in Southeast Asia then realized that this was not an attack, but an execution.
Executed personally by the Master of Dark Night.
At this moment, the man at the center of the storm was sitting beside the bed, quietly looking at the sleeping Ruan Xingchen.
Outside the window, it was the early morning after a rainstorm. The sunlight squeezed in through the gaps in the heavy curtains, casting a few narrow shadows on her pale face. The silver ring on the ring finger of her left hand was faintly glowing with a warm light.
Mo Xiaohan reached out and gently brushed away the strands of hair on her forehead. His movements were very gentle, as if he was afraid of disturbing her from a dream.
"Xingxing..." He murmured softly, his voice unspeakably gentle, "Don't be afraid, no one who hurts you will escape."
Ruan Xingchen, who was sleeping, seemed to sense something and rubbed against his palm unconsciously, like a kitten seeking comfort.
Mo Xiaohan froze, his heart seemed to be hit hard by something.
——She can only rely on him like this.
——His light can only belong to him.
He leaned over and kissed the ring on her ring finger. His world had already been filled with her.
No one would have thought that the eyes of this demon who slaughtered his own industry would be incredibly gentle at this moment.
No one would have thought that he massacred "Dark Night" with blood not to declare power, but to erase any trace of the humiliation she had suffered.
