Night falls.
Ling Chen sat in the bedroom, staring blankly at the night sky outside the window, with the tea in his hand already cold. This operation was a fortunate misfortune; although it was exposed prematurely, fortunately, everyone managed to escape safely without much loss in overall combat power.
Knock knock knock!
At this mont, a knocking sound ca from outside the door. The door was pushed open, and Hu Fei walked in from outside, holding a notebook. Ling Chen put down the teacup in his hand and asked, "What’s the matter?"
Hu Fei placed the notebook in front of Ling Chen and said, "Look, here’s today’s news, just reported online."
Ling Chen glanced at it briefly; it was all about Yingtai Group. He opened a video and saw thirty bodies being carried out from the Yingtai Group building. At first glance, this shootout seed to have caused great loss to Yingtai Group, but Ling Chen knew in his heart that such losses ant nothing to Yingtai Group.
If he’s not mistaken, those people carried out were likely killed by those enhanced people. Closing the notebook, Ling Chen asked, "Is there any other news?"
"Yes." Hu Fei nodded, looking a bit troubled, "Latest news, Yingtai Group, in collaboration with local police, is searching for our whereabouts. Moreover, Yingtai has significantly increased manpower, and the surroundings are heavily protected; trying to get in again is almost impossible." At this point, Hu Fei changed the topic, "In this situation, I think it’s better for us to leave ASAP. Otherwise, if the police blockade airports and highways nationwide for a manhunt, it will be hard for us to return ho."
Ling Chen pondered for a mont and asked, "Did you find Jack?"
"I checked; he’s at his ho. Additionally, I found sothing interesting. After today’s events, the security at Jack’s house has tripled."
"Maybe Beison was right; he is the one who betrayed us. Tell Sir Chen and the others that we’ll visit Jack’s place later."
"Okay." Pausing, Hu Fei asked, "What’s wrong with you? You seem to be in a low mood."
Ling Chen smiled faintly, "Nothing, you go ahead and continue with your work."
After Hu Fei left, Ling Chen slowly let out a breath, gathered his emotions, and then got up and left the bedroom. To be honest, this operation should have been a sure success, especially with the two Heavenly List assassins sent by the Zhu Family, a total of three Heavenly List experts, yet there were still issues. Even with Ling Chen’s good mindset, he felt sowhat frustrated.
Now, his main consideration is no longer Zhu Hong but everyone’s safety.
Upon exiting the bedroom, everyone had gone to rest, leaving only a few still watching today’s news in the living room. "Song," Ling Chen went straight to Song Ge’s side and asked, "Have you contacted the Heavenly chanism Pavilion?"
Song Ge nodded, "I called the Pavilion Master and explained the situation here."
"What did she say?"
"The Pavilion Master told to stay here, assess the situation, and she would consider whether to send support."
"Song, did you ntion us to her?"
Upon hearing this, Song Ge chuckled, "Relax, I didn’t say a word about you all. I’m well aware of the relationship between the Heavenly chanism Pavilion and the Dragon Tiger Hall, I don’t ddle unnecessarily. By the way, thank you. Without you, I would have certainly lost my life at Yingtai Group."
"Song, don’t say that, we’re all good brothers. Oh, do you know what agreent the Heavenly chanism Pavilion reached with the military?"
Song Ge shook his head, "I’m not clear on that. But I’ve heard that the Heavenly chanism Pavilion made a major deal with the military, once it’s completed, it will greatly benefit the future of the Pavilion. Nobody will be able to shake the Pavilion’s position."
"Is that so..." Ling Chen nodded to himself, "Song, you’ve worked hard all day, get so rest." With that, Ling Chen turned and walked out of the living room.
Upon exiting the house, Chen Junfeng and Zhu Qing were already waiting by the car. The three got in the car and drove straight to Jack’s residence. After a forty-minute drive, Ling Chen arrived smoothly at the villa near Jack’s ho.
This is a wealthy area of the city, where residents are successful individuals with assets worth over a billion. Ling Chen parked the car and found a location with a good view, then took out his night-vision binoculars to observe Jack’s villa.
As Hu Fei ntioned, Jack had increased his security several tis, with guards surrounding the periter of the villa, totaling over ten people. This was just outside; there were likely more security personnel inside.
"Lady Zhu, you go in first and ascertain Jack’s whereabouts."
Zhu Qing acknowledged, swiftly moving to the back of the villa. Watching Zhu Qing disappear into the night, Ling Chen withdrew his gaze and continued to monitor the situation inside the villa. Zhu Qing is an assassin; nightti infiltration is her specialty. Ling Chen wasn’t worried about her safety.
Ten minutes later, a voice ca through Ling Chen’s earpiece from Zhu Qing: "I’m in."
"Location?"
"Second floor bedroom at the northeast corner of the villa. I just checked; there are at least twenty security personnel inside the villa."
"What about Jack? Have you found him?"
"He’s in the third-floor living room of the villa, with five bodyguards by his side."
After listening to Zhu Qing’s report, Ling Chen raised his binoculars, lastly focusing on a Rolls-Royce parked at the entrance of the villa.
"Lady Zhu, disable the main power and backup power of the villa."
"Understood!"
Within five minutes, the brightly lit villa suddenly plunged into darkness. At the sa ti, anxious shouting erupted inside the villa. After a while, the chairman of Senyu Group, Jack, rushed out through the villa’s first-floor doorway under the protection of five close bodyguards, heading straight for that Rolls-Royce.
"Quick, escort the boss to the car!"
The car door opened, and a suit-clad bodyguard swiftly pushed Jack into the car before following to sit inside.
Bam!
However, at that mont, a sudden gunshot rang out from inside the car. Imdiately, the bodyguard in a suit sprayed blood everywhere. The unexpected turn of events stunned Jack inside the car. Looking closely, he saw soone sitting in the spacious cabin—it was Ling Chen.
"Mr. Jack, we et again." Ling Chen raised his gun, aiming the dark muzzle at Jack’s forehead, "If you don’t want to die, tell them to back off."
Upon hearing this, Jack promptly said, "Mr. Ling, let’s talk it out, please don’t shoot." After speaking, Jack turned his head, shouting at the window towards the bodyguards ready to draw their guns, "Do you want to get killed? Back away imdiately."
The security personnel exchanged looks and gradually put their guns away.
