"Oh? Does Mr. Xin still have a chance to turn the tables?" Yuan Shijie laughed and said, "To be honest, someone like you, since you cannot be of use to me, I can only eliminate you. In fact, from the moment it got dark, you have already bid farewell to the bright sunlight, because you will never see tomorrow's sun again. Hehehe..."
Xin Yi was not surprised by such words coming from Yuan Shijie's mouth. Despite Yuan Shijie's silver hair giving him an appearance of kindness, Xin Yi was certain that this old man had blood on his hands from countless victims; otherwise, how could he have established the Black K Party? Such seemingly kind people are often the most terrifying because their true nature as bloodthirsty killers is hidden beneath their facade. If harmed by them, one might not even realize why.
"Let's make a bet. I say I can see tomorrow's sunrise from this mountaintop. Do you believe me?" Xin Yi said calmly.
"Oh? That's interesting, but what do you have to bet with? Right now, you have nothing but your life, and besides, that life of yours already belongs to me," Yuan Shijie leaned forward with apparent interest.
"No, my life is certainly my own. Let's bet on that life. If I can see tomorrow's sunrise from this mountaintop, it means my life is still mine; conversely, if I cannot, it means I am dead and thus lost. As for Mr. Yuan's wager, it is also your life. If I survive, it proves your life belongs to me. Hehehe... Do you dare to take my bet?" Xin Yi spoke these words lightly as if he were certain of victory.
Yuan Shijie stared at Xin Yi for a moment before suddenly laughing: "You little brat, you almost had me fooled. Your calmness makes me think you still have a backup plan. Hehehe... Alright, I won't waste more time with you. Come on, take them out for execution." Yuan Shijie issued this command suddenly as if it had nothing to do with him at all, so casually and unconcerned.
Lijie and Roxy were momentarily stunned by Yuan Shijie's abrupt decision; it wasn't that they were afraid of death but rather that the order came so unexpectedly that it instinctively caused a bit of panic in them. A team of bodyguards armed with AKs approached and pressed their gun barrels against the backs of the three individuals' heads, forcing them to stand up.
"Grandpa, are we executing Ruth too?" Little Kobe asked anxiously when he saw the bodyguard pressing the gun barrel against Roxy's head.
"Of course. She has betrayed me; there is no need to keep her around. Execute her too," Yuan Shijie replied indifferently, his tone as if he were discussing a mere insect.
Damn! This old man is truly ruthless; such a person cannot be left alive as they would only bring harm to others. Xin Yi silently resolved to eliminate Yuan Shijie for the sake of the people.
The three were pushed forward by the bodyguards with guns at their heads toward the door when Yuan Shijie casually remarked from behind, "Goodbye, my Heavenly Pride Nation compatriots!" It seemed he didn't even care enough to watch their execution. Just as Xin Yi and the others were being escorted to the hall entrance, Xin Yi heard Yuan Shijie say, "I'm a bit tired; I'm going back to my room to rest now. You handle the rest of the matters, Zixiu; let's go upstairs and rest."
Just as they were pushed out of the villa's main door and had not yet reached the lawn area, several crisp gunshots rang out. Lijie and Roxy felt the gun barrels pressing against their heads suddenly lose pressure. While they were still in shock, they heard Xin Yi shout: "Grab the guns! Counterattack!"
The two quickly reacted and turned around to grab the falling guns. At that moment, Xin Yi had already seized an AK ahead of them and raised it to start shooting. Instantly, several bodyguards who had followed them were taken down. The bodyguards inside the hall rushed outside upon hearing the gunfire; however, with Xin Yi and their two AKs blocking the entrance, they couldn't rush out for a moment. Some had already begun jumping out through side windows.
As Xin Yi and the others subdued the bodyguards in the hall, a group of people rushed in from the edge of the lawn outside the villa. Their weapons were varied, including handguns, submachine guns, AKs, and sniper rifles. It was likely that the sniper was responsible for taking down the bodyguards who had been guarding Xin Yi and his companions. The group charged in and immediately clashed with the bodyguards who had rushed out from inside the villa.
Xin Yi glanced at the battlefield and said to Lijie and Roxy, "These are our country's special agents. You two join them; I will go upstairs!" After saying this, Xin Yi slung the AK over his back, took a few steps back, then sprinted forward, leaping onto the windowsill of the villa. With a few agile jumps, he entered through a window on the second floor.
The people who had arrived were indeed special agents from Heavenly Pride Nation who had been lurking in Lusan. They had actually been following Xin Yi's vehicle closely and arrived almost simultaneously. They had been waiting outside the villa for an opportunity to act. This move was, of course, arranged by Xin Yi. He knew that he, along with Lijie and Roxy, could not take down the stronghold of the Black K Party. Moreover, as Roxy pointed out, they didn't even have weapons on hand. Thus, Xin Yi thought of Phantom Banner. While at the hotel, he called Brother Three, who promptly notified the agents in Lusan, leading to this scene.
The reason Xin Yi did not let the special agents storm into the villa with them was that he feared falling into a trap set by Kobe Bryant. Therefore, he instructed the agents to remain hidden outside and act according to circumstances. In hindsight, always leaving himself an escape route proved to be crucial; otherwise, today would have ended in disaster for Xin Yi and his companions.
Caught off guard, the bodyguards inside the villa suffered heavy casualties and retreated back into the hall, quickly falling silent. By the time Lijie and Roxy led the special agents inside, there was not a single living soul left; they had likely escaped into secret passages or similar places. Both Kobe Bryant and his son were also nowhere to be found. After searching for a while, they could not determine where those passages were located.
At that moment, Xin Yi came down from upstairs, followed by an elderly man with silver hair—none other than Yuan Shijie. However, at this time, Yuan Shijie looked dejected; his silver hair was disheveled, and his once-white Tang suit was stained with blood. This appearance was a far cry from his earlier composure. Once downstairs, Xin Yi saluted the special agents and said, "Thank you all for your tremendous support! May I ask who is Team Leader Tu?"
A capable-looking middle-aged man stepped forward from the crowd and returned a salute to Xin Yi, replying, "I am Tu Honggang. You must be Comrade Xin Yi, right?"
"Yes, I am Comrade Xin Yi. Thank you, Team Leader Tu!" Xin Yi extended his hand for a firm handshake with Tu Honggang, who said, "No need to be polite, Comrade Xin Yi. We are all compatriots; this is what we should do! Elder Dong instructed us to cooperate with your actions. What should we do next?"
"Ha ha, it's all good now," Xin Yi replied with a smile. "Team Leader Tu can lead your brothers to retreat now; we will handle the remaining matters ourselves. We truly appreciate your help!"
"What if they come out again to attack you after we leave?" asked Tu Honggang.
"Ha ha, that's no longer a concern. With this old fellow in our hands, the entire Black K Party wouldn't dare to act recklessly. Team Leader Tu should know who he is," replied Xin Yi with a grin.
"Of course," answered Tu Honggang. "He is none other than the founder of the Black K Party, Kobe Bryant's father, Yuan Shijie. How do you plan to deal with him?"
"Ha ha, I promised him I would watch the sunrise with him at the top of this mountain," Xin Yi said with a smile. "Of course, I won't kill him unless absolutely necessary. With him here, we can safely leave Lusan. Besides, you all still need to continue working in Lusan. Before the Black K Party fully mobilizes, you should return to your respective posts. Once they are all activated, you won't be able to hide your identities anymore."
Tu Honggang didn't waste any words and led his team quickly down the mountain. This was a sudden operation, and it was best if they could avoid exposing their long-hidden identities.
"Alright, now I'll accompany you to watch the sunrise," Xin Yi said cheerfully to Yuan Shijie. "Also, please inform Mr. Kobe Bryant to prepare a private jet for us. We need to borrow it tomorrow. If you escort us onto the plane, I'll let you go back. How does that sound?"
Of course, even if it didn't sound good, Yuan Shijie and Kobe Bryant had no choice but to agree. What could be more valuable than his life? So, Yuan Shijie obediently notified Kobe Bryant. In fact, Kobe Bryant hadn't gone far; he was hiding in a secret base beneath the villa. He initially thought Yuan Shijie had already escaped because the entire villa was filled with mechanisms leading to underground secret bases. Unfortunately, Yuan Shijie hadn't managed to escape before Xin Yi caught him, and Zhao Zixiu, who was with him, tried to resist but was shot full of holes by Xin Yi's gunfire. The blood on Yuan Shijie's clothes was from Zhao Zixiu.
Although Kobe Bryant was right beneath the villa, he did not show himself because he knew that if Xin Yi threatened him with Yuan Shijie's life, he couldn't refuse any demands. His father had already become a hostage; if he became one too, there would be no one left in charge of the Black K Party. Therefore, he could only comply with all of Xin Yi's requests, hoping that Xin Yi would keep his promise and release his father after boarding the plane.
Watching the sunrise from the mountaintop was indeed a pleasant experience. When the first ray of sunlight broke over the horizon, Xin Yi patted Yuan Shijie's shoulder and said, "Mr. Yuan, the sun is up; you lost. From now on, your life belongs to me. I hope you will honor our bet. Ha ha ha..."
Originally thinking he would need to buy a ticket to leave, now it wasn't necessary; why not enjoy Kobe Bryant's private jet? After meeting Shen Shanshan at the airport, they boarded Kobe Bryant's private jet together. The takeoff request had already been approved by the control tower, and the jet would take off in fifteen minutes. However, Xin Yi had no intention of letting Yuan Shijie go just yet. Yuan Shijie grew anxious and asked, "Can I leave now?"
"Ha ha ha, sorry Mr. Yuan, I've suddenly changed my mind. To ensure nothing happens during this flight, I've decided to take you along for a trip as well; of course, I'll cover the travel expenses," Xin Yi said with a mischievous smile.
"You scoundrel! You have no integrity..." The private jet took off down the runway amidst Yuan Shijie's shouts and soared into the blue sky moments later...
