In the office, Dongfang Tingyin suddenly received a report from security.
"General Manager! The warehouse door has been destroyed!"
Dongfang Tingyin was immediately startled.
The warehouse was the foundation of the Wumeng. The door was made of specially crafted materials, which even a Yuheng realm martial artist couldn't destroy. Not to mention the door, even the walls had been reinforced. How could it be destroyed?
Dongfang Tingyin remembered that Lin Yao was still locked in the warehouse by Su Fan, and anxiously opened the surveillance.
The items were not important. Su Fan had once said that he could find more items, but the person couldn't be harmed!
Dongfang Tingyin brought up the warehouse surveillance. The interior was empty. The warehouse was in disarray, with shelves and boxes toppled everywhere. On the ground was a large patch of astonishing blood.
Dongfang Tingyin's heart sank, and she thought, "This is bad."
"Who broke into the Wumeng!"
Dongfang Tingyin asked security while pondering in her mind.
Could it be the Assassin's Alliance? Did they make a move on the Wumeng while Su Fan and the others were exchanging hostages? A trap within a trap?
"No one broke in. According to the surveillance, it was... it was Miss Lin Yao."
Lin Yao had been at the Wumeng for so long that most of the Wumeng employees recognized her. Seeing the scene in the video, security couldn't believe it.
"What's going on?"
Dongfang Tingyin was even more confused. Lin Yao? What did she have to do with this?
Dongfang Tingyin didn't understand what the security guard meant.
"The surveillance footage from the warehouse has been sent to your computer. You should take a look yourself."
At this moment, security sent the scene of what happened to Lin Yao in the warehouse to Dongfang Tingyin's computer.
Dongfang Tingyin opened it to check.
The more she watched, the more shocked she became.
At first, she was surprised by Lin Yao's madness, actually consuming so many pills at once. Later, she was surprised by Lin Yao's recklessness.
She didn't stop after eating the pills to enhance her strength; she also ate all the healing pills.
After that, she was speechless.
Because she saw Lin Yao actually open the boxes in the accessories area and forcibly swallow two accessories.
After Lin Yao fainted, her body began to constantly collapse and repair, then collapse again, then repair again, until the speed of collapse and repair slowed down and finally stopped, leaving only this astonishing patch of blood on the ground.
After a long time, Lin Yao woke up. When Dongfang Tingyin saw Lin Yao smash through the specially made door with a single punch, she was silent, not knowing whether to be happy or sad.
The sad part was that Lin Yao had eaten all the pills in the Wumeng, and now martial artists couldn't even exchange for pills.
The happy part was that Lin Yao's strength had reached a new height, even surpassing Su Fan's.
Dongfang Tingyin didn't know what realm Lin Yao's strength was at now. Tianquan realm? Tianji realm? Or higher?
She didn't know, because in the past hundred years, China had not produced a martial artist of this caliber for a long time.
"Seal the exits. The first and second floors, and all floors, are closed to the public. Transfer the items in the warehouse as soon as possible."
Dongfang Tingyin ordered below and then personally called Xu Feng to go with her. The remaining items in the warehouse could not afford any more accidents.
As for Lin Yao, she had already fled the Wumeng and was probably looking for Su Fan and the others. Dongfang Tingyin didn't care. With Lin Yao's current strength, she wouldn't be a burden; on the contrary, she would be a great help to Su Fan. Dongfang Tingyin had no reason to stop her.
...
On Taiping Mountain, Su Fan and the others had already set up an ambush.
He and Mu Yuanying were openly trading with the other party.
Dongfang Xiong, Dongfang Ming, and the three from Baiyun Temple were hiding in the dark, waiting for the other party to arrive.
Beside Su Fan was Thor, kneeling on the ground with his mouth gagged.
All they had to do was wait for the people from the Assassin's Alliance to arrive.
Su Fan and the others didn't wait long before the people from the Assassin's Alliance arrived.
To Su Fan's surprise, only one person came this time.
Sean the Flame God saw Thor kneeling on the ground and showed a mocking expression.
"Thor, how did you become so pathetic? To fall into the hands of a Chinese martial artist, you're really living backward."
Sean wasn't just mocking Thor.
The two had been fighting for half their lives over their rankings. Although the Flame God's rank was one level higher than Thor's, their strength was roughly the same. Seeing Thor in such a pathetic state now, he naturally couldn't resist showing off a bit.
Thor on the ground rolled his eyes and thought, "You try it? This Su Fan is simply not human. He only knows how to talk tough."
Because his mouth was gagged, he couldn't speak. Otherwise, he would definitely warn Sean to be careful of Su Fan.
"You came alone?"
Su Fan asked the other party.
He wanted to confirm if the other party was really alone.
"Yes, I saw the person, but you're asking for too much. Our boss said he can't give it."
Sean was here to negotiate and see if he could rescue Thor.
"What price are you willing to offer?"
Su Fan pondered for a moment and asked.
He didn't know if the other party really only had one person. What if they had a backup plan? So Su Fan still wanted to gather information before deciding to act.
"One SS-class enhancer."
Sean proposed the price they could offer.
Su Fan smiled.
You say this and don't hit you, who do you hit? One SS-class enhancer, not even a bit of sincerity.
"Are you joking? Your SS-class enhancer is for espers. Even if that's the case, the success rate of the enhancer is not high. Let alone one, even two might not be enough to cultivate an SS-class expert. To exchange an SS-class enhancer for an SS-class expert, you really know how to do business. Three, or we're done talking!"
Su Fan was stalling for time, quietly gesturing to Fang Yunzi to go down and check if there were any other Assassin's Alliance members hiding nearby.
"Leader Su, I think you're joking too. If we were willing to use enough resources to cultivate an SS-class expert to ransom him, we might as well directly cultivate a loyal SS-class expert. Why bother taking the risk to ransom him?" Sean said with a cold laugh.
"What you said makes sense. Please leave."
Su Fan smiled and extended his hand to Sean, signaling him to leave.
Anyway, his main goal wasn't the ransom. As long as Sean showed any intention of leaving, Su Fan would act directly.
Sean was stunned.
His boss had instructed him before coming to talk patiently and make sure to ransom Thor back.
Because Thor was not comparable to ordinary SS-class individuals. The power of thunder was among the top few abilities. Losing an SS-class expert like this would be too much of a loss for the Assassin's Alliance.
Sean took a deep breath, suppressing the anger in his heart.
"Speak, three enhancers are impossible. At most, we can give you two. What other demands do you have?" Sean said, enduring his anger.
Su Fan fell silent.
He seemed to be thinking, but in reality, he was waiting for Fang Yunzi's news.
"Hey, what are you thinking? Speak!"
After a long time of not hearing Su Fan speak, Sean became a little anxious.
"There's no one down the mountain."
Fang Yunzi's voice came through Su Fan's hidden earpiece.
Su Fan smiled slightly. It was time to act.
