Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant Chapter 450: The Confrontation Begins

The man was also stunned by Yunyi’s swift acupuncture. Appearances truly can be deceiving, and the sea’s depths unfathomable, he thought. He hadn’t expected this young girl to be so formidable.

No longer daring to question her, he took a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped the sweat from his wife’s brow as she gritted her teeth against the pain. "Hang in there a little longer, dear," he murmured.

As they kept busy, dusk approached.

anwhile, in another dilapidated building, a man with a scar on his face said grimly, "What did you say? Nothing happened at the clinic, and the pregnant won from the lumber camp were also brought over?"

The ssenger bowed his head, fearing his boss’s anger. "Yes, it’s been quiet over there. We couldn’t get close. In the end, the lumber camp sent those pregnant won over with a tractor."

The scarred man’s hand clenched around the enal mug, veins bulging. "Hurry up and find out what exactly happened!"

As soon as he finished speaking, soone ran in. "Boss, I’ve found out! The doctor at the clinic actually managed to counteract the poison we used."

The scarred man leaped up. "Impossible! That stuff was only recently developed; they haven’t even created an antidote for it yet. How could soone have countered it?"

"But the information we’ve received confirms the poison was countered. We couldn’t find out anything more. The clinic is now guarded by the security team, so we can’t get close."

The scarred man slamd the enal mug he was holding onto the ground. "Damn it! Our first move has turned out to be a complete waste."

His expression was frightening. "Skinny, go gather a few brothers. Those from the lumber camp just arrived; it’s impossible for everyone’s poison to be counteracted so quickly. Let’s cause so chaos. Even if only a few of them suffer for it, our efforts won’t have been entirely in vain."

The tall, skinny man heeded his boss’s order. "Okay, I’ll arrange it right now."

The scarred man shot him a cold glance. "Lead the team yourself."

The tall, skinny man, realizing his attempt to delegate had been seen through, wasn’t embarrassed. He cleared his throat. "Alright, Boss, I’ll lead them myself. You just watch."

Before long, gunshots erupted from the direction of the clinic, and two mbers of the security team guarding it fell.

Huo Jingrui was in a eting with Qiao Shaoguo and the leaders from the lumber camp at the Hua’an Agricultural Reclamation Group headquarters when they heard the noise and all stood up.

They all rushed towards the source of the sound.

Huo Jingrui pulled his weapon from his lower back and moved to flank them.

His marksmanship was deadly accurate. Spotting his targets, he fired three quick shots—BANG! BANG! BANG!—and took down three of them.

His actions threw the n following the skinny figure into disarray.

Still, the skinny man barked, "Steady yourselves, n! Don’t forget our mission! We’ve been dicing with death all along; every extra year we’ve lived has been a bonus. If anyone dares to retreat today, I’ll personally send them to et their maker."

Just then, ard personnel from the Hua’an Agricultural Reclamation Group, who had been lying in wait, also closed in, joining Huo Jingrui’s group to pincer the assailants.

But the skinny man proved to be resourceful; relying on his knowledge of the terrain, he led the few remaining n and almost managed to slip away.

Fortunately, Huo Jingrui spotted him trying to flee and decisively led his n to intercept him via an alternative route. After a joint interception by several groups, they finally managed to apprehend them.

As the tall, skinny man prepared to kill himself, Huo Jingrui fired, knocking the gun from his hand to the ground, and then shot him in the leg.

He rushed over imdiately and dislocated the man’s jaw. Only then did he stop. "Take all these n away," he ordered.

After giving the command, he sprinted towards the clinic.
