Jiudi nodded and immediately used her superpower to disappear from the spot.
Invisible, Jiudi walked towards the hostages.
As she passed by a foreigner, he suddenly turned around and almost bumped into her. Fortunately, she reacted quickly and dodged.
"Huh?"
The man was startled and looked strangely at the empty ground.
"Did you guys hear anything?"
He asked his companions curiously.
"What sound?"
"It sounded like footsteps, and it felt like someone just passed by me?"
He said with a frown.
"You must be mistaken, there's no one here."
Another foreigner said with a smile.
"Maybe you're a bit nervous from not having a mission for a while. Relax, even though we're in Huaxia now, the boss has made preparations, and we'll get back safely."
"Mistaken?"
The man also began to doubt his own senses. Perhaps he was indeed too nervous, after all, it was his first mission in Huaxia.
Jiudi breathed a sigh of relief. She had almost been discovered.
Jiudi arrived at the hostages' location and gently woke up Wu Yun's junior disciples. She did not reveal herself or speak, as doing so would expose her.
As martial artists, she believed these young men and women would know how to handle the current situation.
Wu Yun's junior disciples slowly woke up, looking around in confusion.
Seeing that the situation was stable, Jiudi quietly used her walkie-talkie to signal Su Fan and the others.
"It's done here."
Upon receiving Jiudi's signal, Su Fan immediately called Wu Yun and Li Jun.
"Let's go!"
Without a word, Su Fan and the other two charged out.
The sudden appearance of Su Fan and the other two startled the foreigners. Two of them, holding guns, immediately aimed their weapons at the trio.
Energy gathered at the barrels of their guns, and a bullet carrying the energy shot towards the three.
While they were distracted by Su Fan, Jiudi also launched a sudden attack.
"Attack!"
Jiudi shouted.
She was speaking to Wu Yun's junior disciples and all the martial artists present. It was time for them to counterattack.
Jiudi was the first to rush behind a gunman and cut his carotid artery with her dagger.
She then moved towards the next person.
The other gunman, sensing movement beside him, immediately turned his gun to aim at Jiudi.
Jiudi was startled and vanished with a flash.
Bang!
The gunman fired an empty shot.
After dodging two energy bullets, Li Jun and Wu Yun were met by two others wielding greatswords.
As their weapons clashed, Wu Yun and Li Jun felt a heavy force in their hands. The opponents' strength alone was equivalent to a full-power strike from a Dongming realm martial artist.
Another unarmed foreigner set his sights on Su Fan. Also unarmed, this foreigner seemed to have found a kindred spirit in Su Fan.
Su Fan was speechless. Did this guy have a problem? Why was he looking at him like that?
"Yo! Good!"
The foreigner gave Su Fan a thumbs-up and said.
"You're crazy!"
Su Fan immediately charged forward to attack him.
"Come on!"
The foreigner roared. His body suddenly began to transform. He grew taller, his fur became thicker, his facial features shifted, his mouth protruded further, and sharp claws grew from his limbs.
In a short while, he had transformed into a grey-furred werewolf.
"Werewolf!"
This was the first time Su Fan had ever seen a werewolf, let alone a werewolf transformation.
Facing a legendary creature, Su Fan dared not be careless. He immediately unleashed his full power, also activating his illusionary spirit ability.
The werewolf charged at Su Fan, leaped high, and swung a claw at him, as if to wrestle with Su Fan.
Illusionary Spirit!
Su Fan punched the werewolf's claw.
Su Fan felt a soft impact on his fist, not the hard clash he had expected.
Was this guy all show and no substance?
As Su Fan was wondering, the second stage of the illusionary spirit attack took effect on the werewolf. The werewolf's entire arm exploded.
"Awooo!"
The werewolf let out a pained howl.
Its eyes held not only pain but also shock. It had never expected Su Fan to be so strong!
Su Fan was also a little surprised.
What happened to the wrestling match? I used my full strength, and your arm is gone?
The werewolf immediately turned and ran. It wanted to escape not only from this Easterner but from this place! This person was too strong; even their boss might not be his match.
Su Fan wouldn't let him get away.
"Horizontal Style, Unbladed, Skyward Slash!"
Su Fan used his palm as a blade, unleashing a blade energy.
Caught off guard, the werewolf was struck directly on its back by the blade energy. Heavily wounded, the werewolf stumbled and fell face-first.
Su Fan rushed forward, intending to deliver a finishing blow.
Meanwhile, Li Jun and Wu Yun were gaining the upper hand in their fight.
The other gunman was being kept in check by Jiudi. Since Jiudi's location was unknown, he dared not be careless and remained constantly vigilant of his surroundings.
William frowned slightly at the situation.
He glanced down at the display case in front of him. It was about to be opened.
William remained calm and ignored the others, focusing all his attention on the display case.
*Click!*
*Crash!*
His efforts paid off. The bulletproof glass case was finally shattered.
William immediately took out the sword within.
The moment he gripped the hilt, William felt his control over fire elements become even more effortless. This was a sword that could enhance his fire-controlling abilities!
William was overjoyed.
William then looked coldly at Su Fan and the others.
"It's time to deal with you vermin!"
William charged at Su Fan with his sword.
He could tell that Su Fan was the most troublesome opponent here.
Even the werewolf Kate was no match for Su Fan, so he had to step in himself.
William swung his sword from a distance towards Su Fan, sending a stream of fire flying from the blade, aimed directly at Su Fan.
Just as Su Fan was about to finish off the werewolf, he felt a sudden premonition of danger. He flipped backward to dodge, narrowly avoiding William's attack.
Seeing the peacock feather on William's body and the sword in his hand, Su Fan immediately understood what new abilities he had gained.
These items had come from Su Fan. Who could understand them better than him?
"Your strength is impressive. Why stay with this small organization? Join me, and I'll ensure you live in wealth and honor!"
At this moment, William, impressed by Su Fan's strength, wanted to recruit him.
Su Fan couldn't help but shake his head, finding it both amusing and exasperating.
Trying to poach someone from their own boss, what was he thinking?
At this point, the werewolf had also gotten up from the ground. He had lost an arm and sustained severe blade wounds on his back. Seeing William confronting Su Fan, his mind raced.
With the boss and himself attacking at full force, they might not be a match for this person. If they could kill him, the rest would be easy, and they could take whatever they wanted from here.
With this thought, the werewolf hardened his resolve, activated his werewolf bloodline to rapidly heal his wounds, and soon his bleeding temporarily stopped.
