'Whoosh.'

'Clang.'

'Ding...'

The four of them were engaged in a fierce battle, clashing head-on.

Li San was incredibly fast, and in this one-on-one fight, he temporarily gained the upper hand.

Ren Ying struck fiercely, with strong cultivation, forcing Wan Jiayuan into a constant retreat.

"Cui Yuan, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and kill that kid to help out." Feeling the pressure, Cui Yuan retreated as he fought, urgently pleading for help.

"I want to, but this kid is as slippery as if he's coated in butter. As soon as I get close, he slips away, I can't land a hit."

"Damn it."

Meanwhile, a kilometer away, Xiaofan seemed a bit impatient, pressed the intercom and asked softly, "Are you two done yet? No matter how careful, you should've found each other's weaknesses after so many moves. Need help?"

"No."

"No. We'll finish soon."

Upon hearing the offer for help, Li San and Ren Ying immediately refused. In their hearts, there was a hidden pride. They had a mindset of not yielding to anyone. If their target was defeated by someone else, it would be a significant blow to themselves.

After responding to Xiaofan's question, Li San and Ren Ying's eyes suddenly turned sharp.

They turned and quickly flashed out of the attack circle.

"Hahaha, run, let's see where you run to."

Li San deliberately slowed his pace, afraid that Cui Yuan wouldn't catch up in time.

"Swallow's Counterattack."

'Whoosh.'

'Bang. Bang. Bang...'

Knowing Xiaofan was getting anxious, Li San seized the opportunity to use his signature move.

But Cui Yuan wasn't just any assassin. Having roamed the martial world for so many years, his ability to sense danger was more advanced than Li San's own senior.

Shocked by the ingenuity of Swallow's Counterattack, Cui Yuan knew he couldn't dodge it. He could only use his body rotation to avoid deadly harm. Then, at the most critical moment, counterattack with the opponent's move.

'Bang.'

As expected, Cui Yuan managed to fend off that fatal attack, willing to risk serious injury to take Li San's life.

After spending so much time with the Red Butterfly, Li San understood their every move thoroughly. He knew too well this final desperate counterattack.

"Swallow Flying, Scissor Sweep Ground to Avoid Spring Rain."

"Wow. Where did you buy this binoculars? Can't see clearly. Li San's move is too amazing, ah ouch..." Xiaofan commented as he watched the four's fight through binoculars.

"Come on, it's a kilometer away, and at night no less. It's good enough to even see shadows."

"Let me take a look." Hearing that Li San had a new move, Han Shengjun ran over eagerly asking for the binoculars.

Indeed, Li San's move was incredible. Scissor Sweep Ground to Avoid Spring Rain. As it suggests, swallows fly close to the ground before it rains. Though Li San was skilled in Lightweight Skill, he couldn't fly, but cleverly used his agile body, covering his hands completely with Inner Strength, supporting himself on the ground, he charged towards his target in a low stance.

Even if the opponent intended to dodge, Li San's feet suddenly gained strength, kicking upwards, and he soared into the air. With a great wave, a cold flash shone then vanished.

Cui Yuan knelt in disbelief, hands clutching his abdomen, and under violent convulsions, slowly fell to the ground.

"Ren Ying, I'm leaving now."

"I've been waiting for you."

"Huh? When did you...?"

Ren Ying was already standing aside, wiping his dagger, indicating he had defeated his opponent before Li San.

Six people, in three cars, headed straight to the Red Butterfly headquarters.

Xiaofan paused briefly on the way because Ruyu, Bai Xue, and Leng Yue were still waiting by the roadside.

"You three, let's go. If you can neutralize Black Scorpion's poison, these nerve toxins should be no problem for you."

"Go? Where do you want us to go?" Bai Xue asked calmly.

"Back to your country. After tonight, whether Red Butterfly is destroyed or not, in ten years their influence won't cover Asia again. Zhu Fan might be globally wanted, and of course, the likelihood is the former. Zhu Fan might die here tonight." Xiaofan said softly.

That's what Xiaofan hoped for. If Zhu Fan died, none of the Red Butterfly's key members would escape, and he could retire in peace, leading an ordinary life and being with the woman he loved.

It would be wonderful to compensate for those he owed. A fulfilling life beckoning at each step.

As long as he took this last step safely.

"What about the others? Who's in the car behind?" Ruyu asked indifferently.

"I'm here."

As the words fell, Li San stepped out from one of the rear cars.

Knowing parting was near, perhaps with much reluctance, Xiaofan had once told him never to get too emotionally involved with any of these girls, otherwise, he'd regret it.

Now Li San understood, but it was too late. He knew Xiaofan wouldn't stop him from taking Ruyu, but after tonight's mission, it was uncertain if he'd survive.

"Can I ask you a question?"

"I loved you. No, I've never stopped loving you."

"So what."

"I won't leave with you, unless you come with me."

Ruyu, like Leng Yue and Bai Xue, had intended to persuade Li San to leave and return to Japan with them, but Li San knew he couldn't leave his brothers behind. Even without them, he couldn't imagine living in a country he didn't like.

"Go with you? To where?"

"Let's see after tonight, if I am still alive."

Tonight. Everything depends on tonight.

"Let's go, we don't have much time left," Xiaofan said calmly after checking the time.

"Who exactly are you?" Bai Xue asked again. By now, if she couldn't see Xiaofan and the others had something up their sleeves, it would be too much of a failure.

"At least, not your enemy, not now." Xiaofan replied seriously.

"You're going after Zhu Fan, aren't you?"

"..." Silence. What would happen next was still uncertain, Xiaofan couldn't disclose it to them.

"We'll go back with you," Bai Xue continued.

"Go back? Do you know how dangerous Red Butterfly headquarters is now?" Xiaofan asked worriedly.

"This was our mission to begin with, if things go wrong, we'll just find a place to hide. Moreover, with us returning with you, you'll face less suspicion." Bai Xue said, not waiting for Xiaofan to respond, she boarded Xiaofan's car.
