Chu Tian’s head spun when he heard Ma Deju.
How could Ma Ruolin be navigationally challenged?
His heart immediately tensed. He hadn’t known about this situation.
If he had known, he would never have let Ma Ruolin come out.
What could be done if the guide was lost?
“Don’t worry… I’ve learned to read maps!” came the voice of Xiao Long Nu.
Hearing this, Chu Tian relaxed.
However, he still asked, “Are you sure you can understand it?”
“Hmph…” Xiao Long Nu snorted.
“Sister Xiao Long Nu can understand it. This… this is still… she… she found the place!”
Ma Ruolin’s ashamed voice came through the communicator.
Chu Tian covered his face, completely speechless!
He and Jing Kaiyu had already arrived at the outskirts of the capital, above an abandoned factory.
From the memories of that old scholar, he learned that beneath the abandoned factory lay a hidden world.
It was the headquarters in the capital for the Fenyi Faction.
It was under his sole jurisdiction. He usually wasn't here, but at the true headquarters of the Ninth Office.
Chu Tian was responsible for the Kyoto region, but…
He planned to rescue the people first, and then head to the headquarters of the Ninth Office.
He would apprehend all of those so-called Nine Council Members.
“Prepare to… make your move!”
Seeing everyone in position, Chu Tian directly gave the order.
Boom…
A loud explosion occurred almost simultaneously in the communicator.
“The Ninth Office!”
“Who are you?” But just as Chu Tian descended and hadn't gone far, he encountered several people.
Naturally, they were the stationed personnel left behind by the Fenyi Faction.
Chu Tian was too lazy to waste words with them.
“Annihilate…” But his eyes flickered.
He uttered a single word softly.
Sizzle…
A few people standing not far from them, looking vigilant, suddenly had their eyes bulge out before they fell straight to the ground.
The brains of these individuals had been turned into mush.
Watching them fall, Chu Tian felt a surge of emotion.
Not long ago, these people were all figures he looked up to.
Any one of them could have easily crushed him.
Yet, in just half a year, their lives were now dictated by him.
Chu Tian was very familiar with the faces of these eight people.
Of course, after obtaining the old scholar’s memories…
He had learned about the crimes committed by each of them.
All of them had the blood of ordinary people on their hands.
Therefore, they had to die!
Jing Kaiyu stood behind Chu Tian, looking at the fallen individuals.
Then, he turned his gaze back to Chu Tian, his eyes filled with… confusion.
The first time they went to Qinling for a mission, this man in front of him was still a rookie.
He needed everyone’s protection…
Now…
Jing Kaiyu couldn’t help but laugh at himself.
He had just sworn to protect this trust with his life.
It seemed there wouldn’t be a chance for that…
“What are you spacing out for? Let’s go!”
Chu Tian took a couple of steps and saw Jing Kaiyu zoning out.
“Oh… Oh!”
The latter snapped back to reality and quickly followed Chu Tian’s footsteps.
Chu Tian unscrupulously spread his divine sense.
The entire underground branch was instantly imprinted clearly in Chu Tian’s mind.
He knew exactly how many people were here.
Familiar with the layout, he went to them one by one.
Ten minutes later, in the entire underground branch, besides Chu Tian and Jing Kaiyu,
There were only two living people left in a secret chamber.
A total of thirty-nine core personnel of the Fenyi Faction.
All of them were wiped out by Chu Tian!
In these ten minutes, he encountered no strong resistance.
These so-called experts, ability users, mutants, Heavenly-tier martial artists…
In Chu Tian’s eyes, they were all mere minnows.
Jing Kaiyu, following behind Chu Tian, had become numb.
He had also been a king of soldiers and had executed countless missions.
But he had never experienced such an easy time as this.
He had completely become an onlooker.
More importantly… this show wasn’t even interesting.
There was no fighting, just a one-sided annihilation.
Even… with just a glance from the man in front of him, heads would explode.
What was there to fight?
Jing Kaiyu even felt a little sympathy for those people.
With a turn, Chu Tian led him to a door as imposing as a bank vault.
“Can you open this lock?” Chu Tian asked, glancing sideways.
“Ah?” Jing Kaiyu was startled.
He hadn’t encountered such a door before.
Chu Tian would usually just kick it open.
Why was he being asked to pick a lock now?
“What ‘ah’? Don’t you kings of soldiers have lock-picking skills?
I’m telling you, your wife is inside. If I kick the door open and it hits your wife, I won’t be responsible!”
Chu Tian spread his hands and said indifferently.
“Uh…” Jing Kaiyu’s eyes lit up.
“Let me try…” He quickly stepped forward and took out a small electronic device from his backpack.
Chu Tian didn’t know what it was.
He probably thought it was a decryption tool.
In any case, he watched Jing Kaiyu busy himself with the device.
Chu Tian had already seen the two women inside through the door.
The two women appeared extremely terrified.
Even if Chu Tian kicked the door open, they would not have been hit by it.
However… he also noticed several piles of things.
They were all money… stacks and stacks of cash…
They were piled up at the entrance of this iron door.
If Chu Tian kicked it open, the vault door would be breached.
But with the weight of the vault door and his own strength,
It was likely that the cash would be destroyed by the shockwave, turning into powder in an instant.
So much money… how could Chu Tian bear it?
It would be too much of a pity if they couldn’t be taken away!
Jing Kaiyu tinkered for a long time, a full half hour.
“Are you even capable of this?”
Chu Tian was getting impatient.
Especially the two women inside. They had noticed the sounds at the door.
The two of them were huddled together in a corner, trembling.
They appeared extremely frightened.
Jing Kaiyu had been fumbling for half an hour.
These two women had been in a state of fear for half an hour.
If this continued endlessly, the two women might develop psychological issues.
“The security system of this door is too advanced. My equipment is a bit behind…
Moreover, the security of this door is connected to the internal detonation system.
Fortunately, you didn’t kick it just now, boss… otherwise, the entire underground would have gone up in smoke!”
Jing Kaiyu said, cold sweat beading on his forehead.
“Oh?” Chu Tian was also taken aback.
