"War God!" Just then, Zhao Feng appeared and said hastily, "The men tasked with protecting the Madam just reported that she seems to be missing!"

"What did you say?" Chen Zheng's head snapped up. "Missing?"

His mind instantly went into overdrive. How could a living person just vanish under the watch of his own trusted aides? He didn't need to think to know how serious this was. His fists clenched. "Activate the Tianyan System immediately! Even if you have to turn Yunshan upside down, you must find her!"

"Understood!"

Nearly five minutes later, Zhao Feng received a detailed report and went straight to Chen Zheng.

"It was the Lone Wolf!"

On hearing who it was, Chen Zheng's heart sank, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

"I already let him go, yet that damn bastard still dares to come after my wife," Chen Zheng said, his voice ice-cold. "He's simply asking to die!"

"Lock down a ten-kilometer radius immediately! Recall all Iron Pagodas and have them stand by!"

Chen Zheng had just finished giving his orders when his phone began to vibrate violently.

"It's the Lone Wolf!" Zhao Feng glanced at the screen before respectfully handing the phone to Chen Zheng.

Chen Zheng exhaled slowly and answered the call.

"War God Chen, how are you feeling now?" The call had barely connected when a mocking voice came from the other end.

"Where is my wife? What do you want?" Chen Zheng forced his voice to remain calm, but his knuckles were already turning white as he clenched his fists.

"You can rest assured, your wife is perfectly fine!" Lone Wolf said with a cold laugh. "I'm well aware that you've already recalled the Iron Pagodas, and I know it's impossible for me to break out of here.

"But with your wife in my hands, things are completely different now. Why don't we discuss terms?"

Just then, a van equipped with a satellite dish pulled up to Chen Zheng. He boarded it immediately, where a massive screen was mounted inside.

A radar grid resembling a spider's web pulsed across the screen. The constant scanning finally stopped, freezing on the location of the Yuanshi Building, where a red dot suddenly flared to life.

The voice on the phone continued, "War God Chen, I know your methods all too well. With the Tianyan System, you can find me anytime. Don't worry, I have no intention of trying to run away with her. I'm on the top floor of the Yuanshi Building. I'll be waiting for you here. You can come whenever you're ready, but let me warn you: keep your men back. Otherwise, if I get spooked... I can't promise I won't do something regrettable."

With that, Lone Wolf's icy voice cut off as he hung up.

"That damn bastard!" Chen Zheng cursed, a murderous glint in his eyes. "Straight to the Yuanshi Building!"

「Meanwhile.」

「Atop the Yuanshi Building.」

Lone Wolf slowly lowered his phone. Just then, a figure shot toward him, aiming straight for his neck. But Lone Wolf merely sneered, turning and lashing out with a vicious kick that connected squarely with his attacker's chin.

The burly figure was sent flying backward, crashing heavily to the ground.

"Well, well..." Lone Wolf said, his voice cold as he watched the man slowly push himself up from the wet rooftop. "I really underestimated you. I never thought you'd be able to catch up to me so fast."

"Xu Da!" cried Wei Zixuan, who had explosives strapped to her body.

Her eyes were filled with fear. Tears mixed with rain streamed down her face as she shivered in the cold wind, looking utterly fragile and helpless.

"Cousin..." Xu Da wiped a smear of blood from the corner of his mouth. "Don't worry," he said with a cold snort. "As long as I'm here, this bastard won't hurt you!"

"I advise you to let my cousin go immediately. Otherwise, I'll die here today, but I'll make damn sure to take you with me!"

"Take me down with you?" A sarcastic smile touched Lone Wolf's lips.

"Kid, you really think you're hot stuff, don't you?" Lone Wolf slowly shook his head. "With your pathetic amount of skill, you actually think you can hurt me?"

This guy is way too full of himself.

"I told you before, if I weren't worried about being surrounded by the Iron Pagodas, do you honestly think you would've lasted this long? But since you insist on courting death, then don't blame me for what happens next!"

The words had barely left his mouth when Lone Wolf moved, vanishing from his spot in an instant.

Xu Da stood stunned for a moment...

In that split second, he felt a gust of wind beside him. He instinctively threw a punch, but Lone Wolf's other hand had already slammed into his abdomen. At the same time, a knee shot up, slamming into his chin once more.

Xu Da sprayed a mouthful of blood as his body was sent flying, crashing to the ground some distance away.

The tall figure smashed onto the ground, splashing a great deal of water.

"Pathetically weak..." Lone Wolf chuckled, his face full of mockery.

After a combo like that, even someone with internal energy would be injured. This kid probably isn't getting up. It's bizarre. How could someone with such pathetic skills dare to challenge me? It's suicidal!

"Xu Da!" Wei Zixuan's eyes were bloodshot with panic. She gritted her teeth and screamed, "If you want someone, come after me! Don't hurt my cousin!"

"Come after you?" Lone Wolf chuckled. "Mrs. Chen, right now you're the most valuable bargaining chip I have. I can't very well harm you. But don't you worry. As long as War God Chen does exactly as I say and doesn't try any funny business, I guarantee you'll be perfectly safe," he added with a sneer.

"In that case, I'd like to know what your conditions are." At that moment, a towering figure appeared on the rooftop.

Zhao Feng held a large black umbrella over Chen Zheng as they slowly walked forward.

"War God Chen..." Lone Wolf's eyes narrowed. He was immediately hit by an intense sense of danger from all sides. Instantly on high alert, he tightened his grip on the remote detonator in his hand.

"You'd better have your people back off, now!" Lone Wolf took a deep breath, a crazed look in his eyes. "Otherwise, if my finger slips, we all die here today!"
