"My appearance fee is expensive," Xia Liqin's lazy voice was heard which caused everyone to turn to the person that arrived. There stood Lu ngjie's brother, holding a gun in his hand. "And making Jiejie cry will cost you your life."
"Qinqing…" Instead of feeling relieved that her brother ca to her rescue, she panicked inside. Why the hell was he here? She knew her brother well, even with his gun, he wouldn't be able to go against the group of experts. Yong Liwei was wounded and they were still outnumbered even if two of their n were killed. They were only taken down by the elent of surprise but now that these n were prepared, they would be able to defend themselves.
"Xia Liqin, take your sister and leave," Yong Liwei ordered as he turned his back on them, ready to face the rest of the n in the room.
"Are you crazy?! You're wounded!" Lu ngjie may have hatred towards him but that didn't an that she wanted him to die. He was still her husband.
"Soone has to take care of them and also…" He paused, he slightly turned his head as he eyed her. His gaze hardened as he stared at the cut. "I'll have to kill them for hurting you. Xia Liqin, I will be leaving your sister with you. Take care of her."
"Co, Jiejie." Her brother was about to approach her but a dagger ca flying towards him.
Yong Liwei was quick to notice it so he threw one of the knives he was holding. He was able to redirect the dagger away from Lu ngjie's brother.
"Everyone leave!" Yong Liwei told the staff who were cowering in the corner of the room.
"I admit, you have better skills than ." Hunter's nacing voice was heard. "But I'm afraid, no one is leaving. I've changed my mind, I will kill that man, then your wife, then your son. I will kill them before your eyes before I'll-"
Swiissh!
Hunter's eyes widened at the knife that ca flying towards him but as he was able to see it coming, he was able to dodge it just in ti.
Now Yong Liwei was empty-handed. He didn't need weapons to kill them. His hands were enough to take them down.
"Leave!'
The workers hurriedly ran towards the kitchen to escape the place.
"Get them!" Hunter roared.
The rest of Hunter's n ca running towards them upon hearing the order from the leader.
A cold, murderous glint flashed in Yong Liwei's eyes. He didn't have a choice but to fight back even if Lu ngjie was there. He charged back towards the n who targeted his wife.
Xia Liqin took the opportunity to drag his sister to the back door exit but she stopped just before the door. "Qinqing, take Huasheng out of here. I have to help my husband."
"But Jiejie-"
"I will not allow him to die here!" She said through gritted teeth. She had knowledge about martial arts, she was trained by one of her father's best n. Unlike Xia Liqin who had low stamina, she had better chances of winning. "Go!"
"Then take my gun!" He handed it to her but she declined.
"You will need it in case that guy has so other n lurking outside."
"I've checked. There's no one!" He insisted on giving her the gun.
"We can't be too sure." She looked at Little Peanut's crying face, her eyes softened. "Mommy and daddy will be ho soon." She kissed his forehead one last ti before she finally gave her son to her brother. "Please protect him."
Xia Liqin's lips were stretched into a thin line. He didn't want to leave her sister.
Lu ngjie reached out, placing a hand on her brother's cheek. She gently caressed him with her thumb. "Baobei, I leave my son in your hands."
"Jiejie…"
She tiptoed and kissed his cheek before she turned and went back to the fighting scene and as she did, her eyes widened with what she saw.
Except for Hunter, the rest of the n were on the ground, groaning in pain. How was this possible? She was just gone for a few minutes!
Yong Liwei had a sardonic smile on his lips as he glared at the man before him. He was strangling him with one hand. He slowly raised him in the air as if the other person didn't weight at all. He tightened his hold until the man's face, River, swelled red as he choked.
River was trying to struggle free from Yong Liwei's strangle until… crack! His body went limp.
"Hn? You break too easily." Yong Liwei threw the man's body on the ground after he had taken his life. He had a murderous look on his face. With a venomous smirk, he taunted, "If you want to entertain , you'll have to put in more effort right now."
"Y-you…" a man groaned. He spat out the blood from his mouth. He grabbed his ankle and spoke through gritted teeth, "Y-you killed… River…!"
Yong Liwei darted his deadly gaze at the man laying on the floor. He raised his foot and placed it on top of the man's head which caused him to groan in pain as the devil-like Yong Liwei began pressing his foot against the other man's head. "Shhh. Did I permit you to speak?"
"W-wha… what are you?" Hunter muttered as he took a step back. It was as if the man before him have turned into soone else. His fighting style was different from earlier, he was as swift as lightning, and each hit he gave his n were heavy. He never thought that the rumors were true. This man could take down a group by himself! No wonder he didn't bring his n to guard him!
"?" Yong Liwei's murderous gaze scanned the rest of the n who were trying to get up. So crawled away from him in fear. He turned his icy glare at Hunter. "I'm a dangerous, unsympathetic 'monster' with no empathy."
He was a monster indeed— No, he was more than a monster, he was a devil in human skin! Hunter could easily tell if his opponent was deadly.
"Now then, who sent you?"
Hunter scoffed. So what if he was able to take the others down? His companions were just a bunch of B and A rank rcenaries. He was stronger than them. He had been training his whole life to kill Lu Xian Yu and take his title 'strongest rcenary' from him but that chance didn't co. Despite that, he was still able to receive the title after the other man left. "Do you think I'll tell you? Over my dead body!" He instantly rushed towards Yong Liwei.
He stood calmly as he watched Hunter charge towards him. The side of his lips curled up into a sinister, and bone-chilling smirk. "Scums like you ought to know your place... Beneath my feet."
