If Xiaofan makes a move, then this matter is surely concluded.
Here, there is no code of honor in the martial world; a sneak attack is just that—sneak attack, and as long as the enemy is killed, it's considered a job well done.
Thus, when Xiaofan made his move, he immediately took down two people.
After killing those two, the pressure on Wu Hu was instantly relieved; the situation of being pressed and beaten quickly turned around.
And Xiaofan's target was that scientist. The opponent's skills were indeed impressive, being able to fend off Xiaofan's multiple assassination attempts.
Xiaofan observed a bit, seeing Wu Hu was currently engaged with his opponent and couldn't break away, Xiaofan swiftly turned around, quietly gathering strength in his palm.
"Buddha's Fury."
He softly uttered the name of the technique and launched out with a strike.
The scientist immediately reached out to block. However, before their hands even touched, a gale fierce as a tiger suddenly whipped across his face, causing pain.
'Bang.'
Upon contact, the scientist was thrown away like a kite with its string cut, spewing a mouthful of fresh blood as he flew, landing straight on the ground.
At this moment, the scientist looked in shock at Xiaofan walking towards him step by step, completely unable to believe the young man before him had such strength. His internal organs were severely damaged in multiple places, and his life was slipping away. His body couldn't move.
"You, you are really..."
'Crack.'
Xiaofan walked up and twisted the opponent's neck, directly snapping it, leaving no chance for him to speak further, then searched for the CD from him, and turned towards the place where Leng Yue was.
With the task accomplished, he didn't care at all about Wu Hu's life or death; he could fight for as long as he wanted; in any case, this matter had reached its conclusion. Who these people really were was not something Xiaofan needed to know.
Surely they couldn't be from Yanhuang Soul, because Yanhuang Soul couldn't send anyone deep into Red Butterfly. If they had such people, they'd have wiped out Red Butterfly long ago, no need to wait for Xiaofan to take action.
Leng Yue was looking at her captain in surprise as he walked back. She had witnessed that move just now; although she knew he was indeed powerful, she hadn't expected him to be this formidable.
"Take it." Xiaofan turned and handed the CD to Leng Yue, "See that? You can't kill me, try a different approach."
Meanwhile, the people from West Gate were dealing with those coming to support the enemy and rushed forward to help Wu Hu finish off the last adversary.
And Xiaofan officially announced the completion of the mission, of course, the CD was to be held by Xiaofan, as it was proof of the task's completion. With it, Xiaofan could claim quite a bit of reward money.
"Boss, task completed, the person was killed by Black Mantis, and the CD is in his hands now."
"Hmm. Once it's handled, return immediately."
"Boss, I was the first to catch up with the target at the time, and the ones aiding them are all experts; everyone in my team died, and in the end, Black Mantis snatched success by ambush..."
"What are you trying to say?"
"I..."
"Now isn't the time to seek credit; I know you've worked hard for the organization, don't worry, the organization won't forget you."
"Thank you, Boss."
"Alright, you guys handle the follow-up, return first thing tomorrow."
"Yes."
Blinded by greed? Or was it Zhu Fan's influence and his aura as a superior that kept so many experts by his side to serve him?
Whenever they completed a task, they hoped to earn the boss's approval, and while being praised, they could gain more authority from him.
Just like today, the men brought by Wu Hu all perished in battle, but afterward, he would definitely be able to command more subordinates, and after rewards were distributed based on merit, his position would become even more solid.
Black Mantis, however, was naturally an exception; no matter if Zhu Fan decided to put him aside or prioritize him, he pretended to care little for such things openly.
Take now for example; even after obtaining the CD, Xiaofan merely made a call to Uncle Zhong reporting the mission's completion, without mentioning anything about additional rewards.
After completing the task, Xiaofan and Leng Yue checked into a hotel, naturally, with one room each.
Regarding Leng Yue's assassination attempt on him, Xiaofan didn't mind; this woman's thinking was just too simple; as long as things were stated clearly, she wouldn't resort to such extreme actions against him again.
While alone, Xiaofan sent the name of Wan Jiayuan to Li Kuo, then with the migrant bird signal device positioned, he could let Li Kuo trace Wan Jiayuan's information and report it to Yanhuang Soul afterward. The distribution points of West Gate could be verified one by one; following East Gate's downfall, now South Gate and West Gate couldn't escape scrutiny.
Red Butterfly's main distribution across the four gates, East Gate had been destroyed, South Gate was about to fall, and West Gate was as good as captured, the final North Gate surely couldn't support the entirety of Red Butterfly.
Step by step, bit by bit, coming to XG nearly a year had yielded such enormous results, Xiaofan believed it wouldn't be long before he had thoroughly dismantled Red Butterfly's operations.
Thinking of this, Xiaofan felt excellent, called room service, and ordered a bottle of red wine to celebrate privately.
Soon, the doorbell rang. Xiaofan walked over to open the door.
The waiter stood outside with the red wine, but Leng Yue also appeared there.
"Give me the wine."
Leng Yue took the wine from the waiter, stepped inside, and gently closed the door.
Leng Yue was wrapped in a thick bathrobe, presumably just having come from a bath. Her hair tips still retained traces of water beads.
"I hardly ever see you drink wine..." Leng Yue handed the wine to Xiaofan, saying softly, surrounded by the fresh scent of the young woman, pleasant to the senses.
The collarbone under the towel was clearly visible, her fair legs exposed from the robe, and altogether, her figure seemed somewhat elegant and lavish.
"Alcohol tends to slow thinking, but after finishing work, I always have a bit to help me sleep." Xiaofan opened the wine with a corkscrew, took out two goblets, poured, and handed one to Leng Yue: "Want something?"
Gently swirling the wine in her glass, Leng Yue took a small sip, then drank the entire glass.
Watching her throat swallowing, Xiaofan slowly withdrew his slightly covetous gaze, drinking half the wine himself.
"I wanted to talk to you." Leng Yue didn't put the glass down but instead poured herself another drink.
"Talk about what? Don't worry, I won't tell anyone about Bai Xue's identity."
"That's not what I want to discuss."
Having once more drained her glass, Leng Yue gently placed it down, walked up to Xiaofan, and with a pull of her jade fingers, her bathrobe slipped away quietly, revealing her flawless graceful figure entirely in Xiaofan's view.
