The atmosphere inside Red Moon dropped drastically as a large group surrounds Tao ng and his n. The majority of them were clothed in black tactical wear, and each person wore a gas mask that hid their faces.
Amongst this group was seven other figures dressed in the sa color. However, unlike the combat outfits of the others, these people were dressed in casual attire.
The feature that stood out the most was their black parka coat with the word ’Fate’ engraved on the back.
Anyone from the underworld who saw this knew right away who these people are.
Lu Tian’s Wolf Team and Yue Ling’s Alpha Team.
Tao ng and his n were as pale as ghosts. Even the sweat that ford on their foreheads glowed underneath the light.
’What the hell is going on? When were we surrounded?’
As Tao ng question the change of situation in his head, Liu Shan scoffs a sneer at the man’s expression.
He walks over to where Tao ng stood at a steady pace. Until he was only two feet away, he finally stopped.
"From your expression, I presu you must be wondering how we knew it was you?"
His question fell like he could Tao ng’s mind. However, despite no answer from the man, he wasn’t mad or annoyed one bit. He calmly held his hand behind his back, and a subtle smile curls on his face.
"You see, to answer this question is simple."
He raises his right hand and points the tip of his finger on his temple with a few light taps.
"You should have stopped when you surmised Han Yue Ling and Mami were the sa person."
His hand lowers and joins the other behind his back again. He looked like an elder disciplining a student.
"As for how we infiltrated Red Moon, that is also a simple answer."
He tilts his head to the left and gestures to a cara hung on the corner.
"Hacking your security system was like taking candy from a baby."
And that was the truth.
Before they arrived at Red Moon, he had already hacked Red Moon’s security system. The mont he and the others arrived, the system would fail unless he turns it back on.
That was also why no one knew they were coming, nor did anyone see them enter.
"You shouldn’t have put your ego so high and crossed the line."
He scans the room once at Wolf Team and Alpha Team before looking at a stupefied Tao ng. He chuckles softly, moves his hands from behind his back, and places them in his pant pockets.
"As for why they are here...."
He pauses after his words, and his smile arcs up until it reach his eyes.
"They’re here because you did sothing stupid."
When he, Xu Long, Lin Hui, and Qi Li were on their way here, he didn’t think it was necessary to call the others, mostly since the four of them were enough to handle the situation.
However, after careful consideration, he concluded that ’this’ was the best way to scare off the rats. While he, Xu Long, Lin Hui, and Qi Li distract Tao ng and his n, Wolf Team and Alpha Team will wait for the signal to rush in. And that signal was the pat he gave on Xu long’s shoulder.
He blinks his eyes with leisure, but the mont his eyes opened again, there was only a
humorless look on him.
Did he care that he gave their plan out to the enemy? No.
"You should have taken your interest sowhere else."
Tao ng could only stare at Liu Shan with only silence. Even though his brain was roaring for him to move, his body could not compromise, leaving him unable to move an inch.
The longer he stared into Liu Shan’s eyes, he was quick to understand how Jia Lin must have felt on the underground fighting ring.
’Mad Reaper.’
A na the underworld gave him (Liu Shan) for a reason. A na that is truly fitting of his dangerous ambiance.
"Y-you..."
After a long while, he finally found his courage to speak again. However, that courage only allowed him to stutter one word.
"Pftt-"
Hearing him have difficulty speaking, Xu Long snort a loud laugh while trying to contain himself. He quickly covers his mouth and clears his throat.
He walks over to stand next to Liu Shan and smiles care freely at Tao ng.
"It’s okay to be scared. Being scared is a natural feeling when one is going to die."
Tao ng’s body stiffened upon hearing these words. He didn’t have to look at his n as he could feel the fear emitting from each person.
’Shit! Shit! Shit!’
He could only curse inside in anger as neither he nor his n could do anything. Even the won that serve him and his n can’t do anything, let alone lift a gun.
This ti they are really screwed.
Lu Tian’s formidable team and Yue Ling’s petrifying team have them surrounded. One small mistake, and these two groups won’t hesitate to kill.
"Ah, then again, you should count yourself lucky."
Lin Hui’s voice sounds from behind the two assistants as he casually walks over to join them. He looks around the room until his eyes landed on Tao ng.
"Since the first warning didn’t seem to get through your small brain, we decided to give you another simple warning."
He smiles widely, revealing his pearl white teeth.
"After all, our bosses were rciful enough not to kill you off."
The second his last word fell, the smile on his face vanishes. All that was left is an expression void of any emotions.
"However, if there is a third ti..."
He glances at the enemy around, then back at Tao ng and shrugs his shoulders.
"Well, you know the outco."
Tao ng stood rooted to the floor. He could only stare between Liu Shan, Lin Hui, and Xu Long.
He knows that Lin Hui wasn’t bluffing. Even before he took over Red Moon, he had heard all there is to Fate.
Three warnings.
That is all one gets when crossing the line with Fate. If one fails to understand, one cannot beg for rcy when Fate cos knocking.
And for Red Moon, this is the second warning. One more mistake, and Red Moon will be obliviated like stomping on a group of ants.
"Since you can’t seem to speak, I take your silence as an understanding?"
Liu Shan’s voice brought Tao ng back to reality. He (Tao ng) doesn’t say a word or sound but nods his head.
Seeing his cooperation, Liu Shan smiles with upside-down crescent eyes and turns around.
However, before he could full look away, his eyes caught a glimpse of a familiar figure amongst the enemy group.
He felt a sharp stab to his chest but quickly brush it aside and entirely turns away. He walks towards the door he and the others entered and gives instruction.
"Let’s go. We’re done here."
When he reached the door, he rembers sothing and turns his head to the side as if to look back at Tao ng.
"We’ll be taking Xiao De with us."
His words fell dominantly, and without waiting for Tao ng’s response, he strides out the door.
Tao ng’s entire being trembled when he heard the ntion of Xiao De. His hands curl into tight fists, and he roars after.
However, before he could make a sound, Liu Shan’s figure had already disappeared from view.
Xu Long didn’t feel the need to stay anymore and follows after his assistant buddy.
As he exits the room, so did Wolf Team, but when they noticed that Lin Hui, Qi Li, and Alpha Team didn’t move, each person turned around to see the problem.
"Go."
Lin Hui didn’t need to look back to know the confused look on Xu Long and Wolf Team’s faces. He tells them to leave with further details.
"We’re right behind you guys."
Xu Long wanted to refute as it will only be Lin Hui, Qi Li, and Alpha Team left if he and Wolf Team were to go. However, trusting their reason, he gestures for Wolf Team to leave.
Of course, the second he left the room, he quickly darts to the side and pokes his head in to see what will happen. Not only him but a few mbers of Wolf Team did so, too, as they were curious.
Xu Long: "Eh? Didn’t you guys hear? Liu Shan and Lin Hui said to go."
Jiangyu: "My little monkey is still in there. What kind of man do you take for to leave her behind? She’s so cute and delicate. What if sothing happens to her? Hm?"
Yiqing: "Cute and delicate? She looks more like a wild monkey. * cough. As for why I’m here, I just want to observe and take so notes."
Xu Long: "..."
Shaofeng: "Um... I’m just because you guys are here."
