Saying more is pointless and might even invite Norasuke's revenge.

However, the name Norasuke sounded very familiar; it seemed like I had heard it somewhere before.

Mei Zhongyi racked his brains and finally remembered the reason.

The nationally televised execution of a wanted criminal a few days ago was none other than Norasuke.

As the top assassin in Japan, and having been executed live on national television, he naturally remembered the person vividly. But the person before him shouldn't be that legendary figure; there are many people in the world with the same name.

How could I have happened to run into this?

Don't overthink it; it must be a coincidence.

“Okay, go ahead,” Norasuke said with a forced smile.

He made no attempt to conceal his real name, indicating that he had no intention of leaving any survivors.

All that is needed is to kill everyone present.

Then there will be no worries about the future.

"This is our blood alliance's money pit; most of the wealthy and powerful people frequent it."

"We received instructions earlier."

Mei Zhongyi revealed all the information he knew.

Lin Beichen also verified the required information one by one.

The Mei Zhongyi before me was far less tough than I had imagined; he answered every question directly.

Lin Beichen knew that this person had no chance of survival.

When Norasuke revealed his real name, he had already made his intentions clear. The other boss, terrified, didn't hesitate to offer two million to save his life. But Yu Feng, standing before him, looked impatient and asked a strange question.

"Your life is worth two million, but what about this woman? Aren't you going to pay for her ransom?" Yu Feng glanced at the other man, the gun still pressed against his boss's temple.

The boss was inwardly groaning.

"This woman is none of my business. If you like her, feel free to take her away."

"I'll transfer the money to you right away."

"Two million kyats."

Before he could finish speaking, Yu Feng kicked him to the ground.

What a joke! Seeing how wealthy you were, I thought you were rolling in money, but it turns out this is all you have. I thought you were talking about Chinese currency, but you're just trying to fool me with this worthless paper.

Yu Feng was no ordinary person; he wouldn't even glance at such a small sum. He couldn't believe the other party could only offer such meager savings to buy his life—it was utterly naive and laughable. It was treating him like he wasn't even human.

I underestimated myself.

Do you really think Yu Feng is a fool who can be easily fooled?

The boss, who had been kicked down, struggled to get up and beg for mercy, but before he could even stand up properly...

Yu Feng darted forward and grabbed his neck.

He then twisted with force, and with a crisp cracking sound, the head snapped off.

The boss died on the spot, causing the woman next to him to scream in terror.

Unfortunately, the soundproofing in the room was excellent.

The outside world couldn't hear anything happening inside.

The woman was also dealt with by Yu Feng in no time.

Yu Feng never hesitates or shows mercy; he is ruthless towards his enemies. He never hesitates to kill those who deserve it. His earlier inquiry about the cost of a life-saving operation was merely to inquire about the local market rate.

I had some expectations, but I never expected them to offer such a low price.

Just now, Noransuke introduced himself.

In reality, it was sending a signal to Yu Feng.

Norasuke had assumed Yu Feng would show mercy, as he had the impression that most Chinese people were soft-hearted. However, he was surprised by Yu Feng's decisive action.

Nora was quite satisfied with Yu Feng's decisive approach.

With more reliable teammates, the success rate of missions is naturally higher.

Norasuke didn't want to die in a foreign land after only a few missions.

"How could you bear to harm such a beautiful and charming woman?"

"I never imagined you, Yu Feng, could be such a ruthless person."

Nora said to Yu Feng with a teasing tone.

Yu Feng didn't take Noryo's teasing to heart.

"In my eyes, there is no difference between men and women; I have always treated them equally."

"We've obtained all the necessary intelligence; let's go."

"I'm worried something might happen to Zhang San."

Before the two could continue arguing, Lin Beichen's words brought the impending argument to an abrupt halt.

Zhang San, who remained at the top, was now facing a difficult choice: to advance or retreat.

"If I leave now, what will happen to Lin Beichen and the others?" This thought had just surfaced in Zhang San's mind when he quickly suppressed it. What good would it do to stay here? It would be utterly meaningless.

Lin Beichen and his group have their own escape plans, so it's best for you to leave as soon as possible.

If we hesitate any longer, we might really not be able to leave.

Having figured this out, Zhang San chose to retreat without hesitation.

"What happened? Why is the place so deserted? Did they all go underground?"

A group of people filed out of the cave.

First, a group of underlings scouted ahead to confirm it was safe before Gan Xiaozhi and his boss crawled out of the cave. Seeing that there was no one around, they were filled with doubt.

"Search! Search thoroughly!"

“I don’t believe they can leave so quickly. There must be accomplices hiding nearby.” Without hesitation, the boss gave the order to search, and his men immediately scattered to begin the search.

After about fifteen minutes of careful searching, the group found no suspicious traces. The surroundings were deserted, and a hazy white mist had inexplicably filled the air, a bizarre sight that left them bewildered. Worse still, they realized they had lost their way.

It's hard to tell which way is which.

It's impossible to distinguish front from back, left from right.

Although they could hear each other's voices echoing in their ears, they could never see each other's figures. The thin mist seemed to have a hallucinogenic effect that could make people lose their way.

"Boss, where are you guys? What's going on here? Why am I all alone? Stop joking around, come out now, I'm scared!" One of the henchmen, sensing something was wrong, cried out in panic. He had been terrified of ghosts and monsters since childhood, and the scene before him made him start having all sorts of wild thoughts.

They could hear their companions calling out and even hear them walking, but they couldn't see anyone. This situation was extremely strange.

Thick fog rolled in, and the surrounding scenery gradually became blurred.

Although everyone remained where they were and dared not make any rash moves.

The current situation still puzzles them.

Gan Xiaozhi instinctively asked his boss beside him, "Boss, what's going on? Is it a natural phenomenon? You know I'm not well-educated, but you're knowledgeable. Do you know what's going on?"

He immediately heard his boss's angry shout: "Natural phenomenon my foot! There's clearly something wrong with this!"

"You've probably heard of the Onmyoji from Japan and the Taoist cultivators from China. This situation is most likely due to their magic. It seems the people targeting our organization this time are quite powerful."

"Now that the others have scattered, it's best for us to remain still and wait for further developments."

The boss's words made Gan Xiaozhi wary.

He instinctively turned around to check on his boss, but was terrified when he did—his boss was nowhere to be seen.

There was no way to see where he was.

You can hear sounds and noises, but you can't see anyone.

Thinking this, he tentatively took two steps back and reached out to feel for the source of the sound. However, he found nothing there. This gave him a jolt.

Good grief, the boss just vanished into thin air like that?

"Boss, where are you? This place is too eerie, I can't find your location at all, Boss!" Gan Xiaozhi kept calling out. The deaths of the other brothers were one thing, but if something happened to the boss, his livelihood would be gone. The boss was the most important.

The eldest brother absolutely cannot perish here.

His worst fear was that the boss would die while he was still alive.

If that's the case, going back will only lead to certain death.

"Stop yelling! I told you to stand still and not move. Did you back away? Let me calm down and think about how to break this deadlock." The boss's words almost made Gan Xiaozhi burst out laughing.

How could he not know what kind of person his own boss was?
The eldest brother knows nothing about feng shui secrets; asking him to come up with a solution is child's play. Feng shui does exist in Myanmar, though it's not as profound as the Taoist practices in China. There are also Taoist branches, such as fortune tellers, within Myanmar.

“This situation is somewhat similar to what I’ve read in ancient Chinese books. Don’t move around too much. Did you take a few steps back just now?” he asked casually.

"Yes, boss."

Gan Xiaozhi dared not delay and responded immediately.

"Boss, you even know this? You're amazing!"

He's truly a talent, an exceptional talent.
Even in such a critical moment, Gan Xiaozhi didn't forget to flatter his boss; he truly is a talent. No wonder this boss named Lu Xiu values ​​him so much. Who doesn't like someone so skilled at flattery? Who doesn't love hearing nice things?

Moreover, Gan Xiaozhi's flattery was so subtle and understated, like a gentle spring rain nourishing the earth.

His flattery didn't feel like bootlicking.

It was as if everything he said was true.

"Close your eyes, feel your surroundings with your heart, and let your mind observe instead of your eyes. What we're encountering now is probably just a minor trick in the art of divination." Lu Xiu's words left Gan Xiaozhi with mixed feelings of belief and doubt.

He was just offering a few casual compliments.

Gan Xiaozhi didn't believe that his boss really understood these things.

But since the boss has spoken, we naturally have to do as he says.

No matter what, we must maintain our trust in our leader, even if we ultimately fail. However, we didn't know until we tried, and the method Lu Xiu suggested unexpectedly worked. After closing our eyes, everything around us seemed to return to normal.

A cool breeze was blowing.

The leaves rustle.

The sound was mixed with the panicked shouts of the crowd.

"What's going on? Could we be trapped in some kind of ghost wall? Brothers, I can't see you guys! Oh my god, what do we do now?" someone asked the others in a panic.

In times of crisis, they place their hopes on others.

"Protect the boss! You must protect the boss's safety! This is definitely sorcery by those Chinese!" someone shouted, clearly trying to show loyalty. The voice was particularly loud, and the hoarse, trembling shout could be heard from a distance.

"Yes, yes, protect the boss first! I heard that to break this illusion, you can use a child's urine, or even pure yang blood."

"I've heard that claim before."

"I didn't believe it before, thinking those rumors about charlatans were just for fooling children. Now it seems that's not the case; rumors don't come from nowhere."

"This is an ancient secret technique, a method passed down from our ancestors for thousands of years."

"It's definitely not a simple charlatan's trick."

The Blood Moon organization members, who were initially in chaos, gradually calmed down after the initial panic. After all, they were one of the more elite members of the organization.

“But there’s a problem now. How many of you are still virgins? As for how much essence blood is needed? To what extent? Can blood from someone who has lost their virginity still be considered essence blood?” Someone from the Blood Moon Organization muttered under their breath, and these words hit a nerve with everyone.

Indeed.

They were all江湖 (jianghu, a term referring to the underworld or gangsters).

He usually frequents places with bright lights and bustling nightlife.

Seeking pleasure and engaging in casual sex was commonplace for him.

It was rare to have never been with a woman; it was even considered shameful. Therefore, among the crowd, there wasn't a single virgin.

"I don't believe he's not even a virgin!"

"Brothers, let's not hide anything now. For everyone's sake, let's stop concealing things."

Someone shouted, unwilling to give up.

They still clung to a sliver of hope.

They believed that among so many people, there must be one or two who were morally upright.

Unfortunately, this fantasy is far from realistic.

While it's true that all sorts of birds can be found in a large forest, it depends on the type of forest. Birds of a feather flock together, and it's impossible for anyone in their group to be a virgin.

Lu Xiu heard his subordinates' discussion clearly.

He had initially held a sliver of hope for these people.

They believe they might be able to break the current predicament.

He has a dozen or so men under his command, and there might be a few exceptional individuals hidden among them.

But this expectation didn't last long.

The Blood Moon Organization members, who had been so enthusiastic just moments before, were now all dejected and silent. The stark contrast between their previous demeanor and their current state nearly made Lu Xiu so angry he wanted to vomit blood.

He was fully aware that none of his subordinates were virgins.

This is a fact that is almost universally known.

The problem is, if you already know it doesn't exist, why ask the question?
The sudden touch startled Lu Xiu, sending a chill down his spine.

Fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead as he looked down at the large hand that had suddenly pressed on his shoulder.

Suddenly, a hand landed on my body...

In such a bizarre situation, anyone would be terrified.

The eldest brother, Lu Xiu, was indeed accurate in his analysis.

The method he taught his subordinate Gan Xiaozhi to break the deadlock was absolutely correct—the hand on his shoulder at that moment was the result of Gan Xiaozhi groping his way there following the sound, and it was not the work of any evil spirit.

But suddenly, a hand touched him.
Such an environment is bound to be terrifying.

Before Lu Xiu could react, a deafening roar exploded in his ears.

The violent explosion made his eardrums ring and his whole body tremble violently.

Gan Xiaozhi was equally terrified.

Startled, he instinctively gripped the object he had just grabbed.

"Oh my god, what's going on?!" Gan Xiaozhi couldn't help but swear.

"You bastard, stop grabbing my collar! Gan Xiaozhi, you better behave yourself!"

The sharp pain in his chest made Lu Xiu curse angrily as well.

"Stay calm! The more critical the moment, the less you can afford to panic. The fact that you were able to find me by following my voice proves that my deduction was absolutely correct," Lu Xiu said, trying to sound calm. "Stop dawdling and get back! Retreat towards the cave entrance along the route you remember!" After giving his instructions, he took the lead and began to feel his way forward.

Just a few steps out, another deafening explosion rang out nearby.

"My leg...my leg is broken!"

"An ambush! We've been ambushed! It's all over!"

Someone had their leg blown off.

Some people were as panicked as ants on a hot pan.

"My hand! My hand..."

"My legs! My legs... I'm going to die..."

"Why did this happen to me? I have an eighty-year-old mother to support at home. God, it's too cruel of me to die here!" (End of Chapter)
