Starting Sign-In from a Billionaire God Chapter 1499 - 1498:
Previously on Starting Sign-In from a Billionaire God...
Yun City, midnight, in a village, an abandoned shrine, with broken doors and windows, at the very back a statue of a Buddha, its gold paint peeling, cobwebs covered in dust everywhere, the sight was one of utter dilapidation.
It was such a place, especially at such a late hour, that ordinary people would neither come nor dare to come.
However, at this moment, under that Buddha statue, there was a man sitting cross-legged on the ground, with his eyes closed, meditating.
This was a man in his thirties, of average appearance, dressed in the most common attire, a set of white clothes, such that if he walked on the street, he would be just an ordinary passerby, not warranting a second glance. Yet, as he sat here now, he exuded a special aura that commanded respect and deterred any potential offense.
His posture was very much like the training stance in a Martial Arts Novel. Choosing to meditate and train in a place like this suggested he did not wish to be disturbed. Indeed, this place looked like it would hardly be frequented by anyone, probably avoided throughout the year.
But this Man in White Clothes was mistaken.
Bam!
A woman, disheveled, ran hurriedly into the shrine, crashing down the already precarious wooden door, and she too fell to the ground.
Her hand was pierced by the shattered wood, bleeding profusely, but she didn’t care about the pain, struggling to get up.
Just then, light shone in from outside, and two men with phones, using them as flashlights, chased in after her.
Seeing the woman lying in disarray on the ground, the two men let out mocking laughter.
"Run, you little bitch, let’s see where you can escape to!"
"Hahaha, coming here is like cutting off your own escape route, isn’t it?"
"Bro, this little bitch can’t escape now. You go first, or should I?"
"Why ask, of course, elder brother goes first! Here, take it!"
As they spoke, the two men approached the woman, one handed his phone to the other and reached to unbuckle his belt.
The woman, upon seeing their actions, displayed a look of panic on her face: "Don’t come over, don’t come over!"
The man unbuckling his belt had already taken it off, holding it in his hand, grinning nastily as he approached the woman.
"Little bitch, let’s see if you can run now. Time to teach you a lesson!"
The woman, supporting herself on her hands, scrambled backwards in panic, while the man holding the belt kept approaching, and the other man followed with the phone, turning on the video recorder to capture the process.
As the woman was left with no way to retreat and the man with the belt drew near her.
Suddenly, the man holding the phone let out a startled shout: "What the hell!"
He gasped as he unwittingly stepped back a few paces, almost dropping his phone.
The man with the belt was startled by him and said, "What’s wrong?"
The man with the phone pointed forward, "There’s someone, there’s a person over there!"
Under the light, the man with the belt stepped forward a few steps and saw, indeed, a Man in White Clothes sitting cross-legged under the Buddha statue.
"What the hell!"
The man with the belt was also taken aback, as it was hard not to be frightened seeing someone in such a place, where the first thought isn’t of a person but a ghost.
Seeing the two men frightened, the woman couldn’t help but turn her head out of curiosity. Since she was lying on the ground, from her perspective, the Man in White Clothes looked like a Buddha statue, towering above.
However, the woman wasn’t scared; instead, she was delighted that there was actually someone here!
"Help me, please, save me!" The woman pleaded to the Man in White Clothes for help.
At this time, the two men also confirmed that the Man in White Clothes before them was not a ghost but a living person, and they suddenly calmed down.
It’s just a person, nothing to be afraid of!
The two men thought.
"Damn it, some lunatic sitting here in the middle of the night in a place like this, is he nuts? Nearly scared me to death, what bad luck!"
"It’s really people scaring people that can frighten one to death. This guy startled us; we can’t just let it go!"
The two men exchanged a glance and both made the same decision: they were going to pick a fight with this Man in White Clothes!
"Hey, who are you?" The man with the belt glared at the Man in White Clothes and asked in a deep voice.
The woman was pleading for help, the two men were looking for trouble, but the Man in White Clothes continued sitting with his eyes closed, indifferent and unmoved.
The two men exchanged another glance.
"Is he dead?" The man with the belt asked in wonder.
The man with the phone suddenly felt a bit nervous: "No way, how could there be a dead person here? And sitting, no less, that’s too weird!"
For a moment, including the woman, all three seemed to forget their original intentions, their attention focused solely on the Man in White Clothes.
"Bro, go and see, is he dead or not?" The man with the phone suggested.
The man with the belt said, "Screw you, if it’s a dead body, it’d be too unlucky, you go check yourself."
The man with the phone said, "Bro, I’m scared!"
The man with the belt spat, "Are you even a man? So afraid, you go check it out!"
The man with the phone had no choice but to bravely approach the Man in White Clothes, silently cursing his partner, if you’re so brave, why don’t you check yourself.
As the man with the phone, a bit tense, approached the Man in White Clothes.
The Man in White Clothes suddenly opened his eyes.
His eyes were cold as ice. He spat out a word: "Scram!"
"Oh my god!"
The man with the phone thought he was witnessing a corpse awakening. He turned and ran back a few steps, almost dropping his phone in fright.
"Calm down, what’s there to panic about! It’s a living person!" The man with the belt shouted at his partner.
Then the man with the belt fixed his gaze on the Man in White Clothes: "Damn it, pretending to be supernatural, trying to scare us, who does he think he is frightening, I have my eye on this place. My brother and I are going to settle our business here, you get out of here, I’m talking to you, do you hear?"
The Man in White Clothes said nothing.
The man with the belt thought the Man in White Clothes was scared, thus became even more arrogant: "What, you afraid to move? I told you to scram! Not going? Fine, you scared me just now. Time to teach you a lesson first!"
As he spoke, the man with the belt moved closer to the Man in White Clothes, making a gesture as if he was about to whip the Man in White Clothes with his belt.
However, just as his hand was raised and before he could make a strike, suddenly, a flash of sword light streaked through the eerie shrine. The mysterious Man in White Clothes emitted a flash of sword light, there one moment, gone the next.
The man with the belt froze on the spot, a look of indescribable emotion on his face, and then a bloodline appeared around his neck, like a choker.
A human head immediately dropped to the ground, rolling to the feet of the man with the phone, the eyes wide open, still seemingly alive, and then the spraying blood splattered all over the phone man’s face.
