Chapter 58: Chapter 58: Total Victory Chapter 58: Chapter 58: Total Victory Li Dong watched as his people fell one by one, and he regretted it. Why did he have to offend these people? If he hadn’t co, could he have safely occupied a building and thrown his weight around in this community?
But the more formidable the opponent was, the less he dared leave them be. He knew they were skilled, and after having suffered heavy casualties in a fight they had agreed upon last ti, that’s why he thought of ambushing them this ti.
No, why were they prepared for the ambush? Did his side have a mole? Thinking about it now was useless because the situation he was in made it very difficult to escape.
Less than half an hour had passed, and only two of Li Dong’s n were left. Both of them were cowards, wetting themselves and cowering on the ground begging for rcy.
Li Dong looked up and sighed deeply, “I was really too careless.”
Gu Pan and Lu Ruisheng walked down.
Li Dong looked at Gu Pan and laughed hopelessly, “I really didn’t expect a woman like you to be so powerful. I know I can’t get away today; I just want to know, when did you plant a mole in my team?”
Gu Pan said, “After that war you waged last ti, we knew you had ambitions, so we had to be cautious. If you hadn’t acted against us, we would never have killed you, but you had to court death.”
Li Dong shook his head, “I underestimated you and overestimated myself.”
Gu Pan said, “You’re finished asking, and now it’s my turn. Is Li Aixue with you?”
Li Dong didn’t deny it, “She is my distant cousin.”
“Truly a relative, Li Dong, you were just too greedy.” After speaking, Gu Pan shot him in the head.
Although the remaining two were cowards, they couldn’t be spared as potential threats. They had co with weapons, hoping to bully those fewer in numbers. If Gu Pan and her group didn’t have the capability, these two would not have spared them. Their team wasn’t ford by conscription; they ca voluntarily. They were not up to any good to begin with, so there was no need for rcy.
Thus, Gu Pan ordered Cheng Yang to take care of those two.
Cheng Yang showed no rcy, pulling out a dagger and delivering a deadly blow to each.
Gu Pan was very pleased; this young man was even more practical than herself, not wasting a single bullet.
Feng Zhekai and his wife ca up at this ti. Duan Shui and Chen Lang also appeared, beginning a search for any survivors. They intended to leave no one alive today.
After confirming there were no survivors, Gu Pan addressed everyone, “Let’s go directly to the building Li Dong occupied and root him out. It will be safer for us in the future, and Li Aixue is most likely there. We can take care of everything in one go.”
Everyone agreed with the plan. After ensuring that all here were dead, they collected their weapons and placed them in the iron doors on the sixth or seventh floor before heading to the building Li Dong had occupied.
They proceeded with great caution, but there were ambushes, so they split into groups.
Gu Pan and Lu Ruisheng took the main entrance, while Cheng Yang and Chen Lang entered through a window in the back.
Feng Zhekai and Lu Xuerong set up an ambush on the left, and Chen Shaonan and Duan Shui on the right, ready to move in from the rear at a sign of any disturbance, avoiding being surrounded by the enemy.
When Gu Pan and Lu Ruisheng reached the main entrance, there was only one guard, and it was soone Gu Pan knew—the one who liked spy dramas, Ding Weiguo.
Ding Weiguo was surprised to see them because he thought that after giving them the signal, they should have fled, but then he heard the gunshots, so he was anxious.
He hadn’t expected Gu Pan and her group to co so openly, which didn’t make sense.
Gu Pan didn’t speak directly to him but instead made a shushing gesture, signaling him to move into the corridor to talk, because she was afraid of startling the snake and causing the person upstairs to run away.
Once inside the corridor, she quietly asked Ding Weiguo, “How many people are still in this building now?”
Ding Weiguo didn’t understand what was happening, glanced upward, and intuitively stretched out two fingers: “Just two people left, on the eighth floor, Li Dong’s cousin and soone protecting her.”
Gu Pan said to Ding Weiguo, “Go ho, I’ll bring you what you deserve tomorrow.”
Ding Weiguo didn’t know what else to do but nod: “Okay.”
Without further conversation, Gu Pan led them into the corridor.
Ding Weiguo jogged back ho, at least believing that going ho now was the safest option.
After Gu Pan and Lu Ruisheng entered, Cheng Yang and Chen Lang also ca in through the window because, with a glass cutter, breaking the window made little noise and would not alert the people inside the building.
After their rendezvous, they checked again, confirming that there was no one else on the first floor, and then went straight up to the eighth floor, being careful on each level, just in case. Although Xiao Ding was reliable, they couldn’t be sure if there weren’t any secret hiding places for Li Dong’s people in the building.
They carefully searched upstairs, level by level, until they reached the eighth floor.
At that ti, Li Aixue was in a room preparing a victory celebration for Li Dong and the others. She believed that Li Dong’s team, with their combat experience and thrice their numbers, would undoubtedly win despite so casualties.
Hearing footsteps outside, she didn’t even put down the water glass in her hand before hurriedly opening the door: “Cousin, you’re back! I just knew you would take care of those…”
Before she could finish, Li Aixue was stunned. The glass in her hand dropped to the ground with a bang, shattering and scattering pieces everywhere.
Right then, a man holding a gun erged from the neighboring room, but before he could aim, Gu Pan shot him dead.
Li Aixue, terrified, burst into tears: “How can you guys… How could you…”
Gu Pan laughed, “How can we not? With Li Dong’s level of skill, only you take him seriously.”
Lu Ruisheng and the others stood guard at the stairwell. They weren’t worried about downstairs, having their own people there. But since they hadn’t searched the upper floors, they still had to be careful.
Li Aixue at this mont felt the despair of the apocalypse: “Gu Pan, why can’t you just let go? What have I ever done to offend you? Why must you drive to death?”
Gu Pan, puzzled, looked at Li Aixue: “Big sister, can we please have a little respect for the truth when we talk? Have I ever even spoken to you? I can hardly stay far enough away from you, and you keep sending people to kill . Aren’t you afraid of being struck by lightning, telling so many lies?”
Li Aixue knew that what Gu Pan said was true, but she indeed wanted to live.
She looked at Lu Ruisheng: “Brother Lu, you are so capable. In this apocalypse, I believe you will beco a lord of a territory, and I am willing to serve you unconditionally, without asking for any status.”
Gu Pan looked at Lu Ruisheng and laughed, “Soone offering to start your harem?”
Underneath his scarf, Lu Ruisheng too was dumbfounded. He kept watch at the stairway, but his eyes stayed on Gu Pan: “I don’t want any of those riff-raffs, they’d be an eyesore. In my life, I only want my wife,” he said feeling aggrieved, and then turned to Gu Pan, “Wife, we agreed on ‘one lifeti, one pair of souls.’ You can’t abandon in this lifeti.”
Gu Pan replied contentedly: “I want you for a lifeti. Keep an eye on the stairwell. Talking too much with her is a waste of ti; I’m sending her off.”
With that, Gu Pan pulled out a dagger and walked towards Li Aixue.
