Chapter 347: Crossing the Line
Watching Red Ghost’s thoughtful gaze behind the wooden mask, Cui Kaixin felt secretly delighted. He was so willing to cooperate in order to buy time.
While he was answering the question, Cui Kaixin had quietly released a stronger toxin.
However, even just to buy time, Cui Kaixin truthfully answered.
Just now, Red Ghost directly mentioned the name of the ‘Yellow Spring’ organization, making Cui Kaixin hesitant to say more about it, because he didn’t know how much Red Ghost knew about ‘Yellow Spring’.
If he tried to outsmart Red Ghost and got caught, it would not be worth it.
‘Just a bit more, just a bit more.’
‘Come on, Red Ghost, ask your grandpa a few more questions.’
‘The more you ask, the quicker you’ll die!’
Cui Kaixin smirked in his heart, already imagining Red Ghost dying from poison, he himself taking over the ‘Red Gate’, and gaining control of the underground world of Guangling.
Then, wearing a wooden mask, Red Ghost said, “Since your ‘Yellow Spring’ belongs to the Southern Territory, you must be unfamiliar with the North.”
“You managed to turn a small company into a group in just over a month, and it wasn’t just about spending money to achieve that.”
“What’s most interesting is that you seem to know about all the underground organizations in Guangling even though you are new here.”
“By playing to your strengths and avoiding weaknesses, focusing on controlling Yao Yangye from behind the scenes first before acquiring other small organizations.”
“Surprisingly, throughout this process, my ‘Red Gate’ was not affected at all.”
“They only approached us once they had grown strong.”
“It seems like someone has been guiding you.”
“Tell me, who is the one guiding you?”
Cui Kaixin silently exclaimed, impressed.
No secrets were kept.
Said in a deep voice.
“There’s a man named Liu Xiao, who provided a lot of information and warned me to be careful of ‘Red Gate’ and ‘Red Ghost’.”
Hearing this, Luo Yan felt a sense of “I knew it”.
Then said,
“Can you contact Liu Xiao?”
Cui Kaixin hesitated for a moment, then said, “Yes.”
“Contact him now.”
‘What does this person want to do?’
‘Doesn’t matter, the longer this drags on, the more advantageous for me.’
Thinking like this, Cui Kaixin took out his phone and dialed a number.
At that moment, he saw Red Ghost reaching out his hand. Cui Kaixin understood that he wanted the phone. He tapped lightly on the phone case with his little finger, releasing colorless toxic powder hidden under his nail onto the phone.
Then he threw it to Red Ghost.
Seeing Red Ghost unsuspectingly taking it, Cui Kaixin felt delighted.
Luo Yan took the phone, put it to his ear, and when it connected, someone said, “Mr. Cui, has Red Ghost died?”
It was Liu Xiao’s voice!
Luo Yan remained silent.
There was silence on the other end of the phone too.
After a few seconds passed like this, Liu Xiao hung up.
Luo Yan put away his phone, clapped his hands, watched as the amber light consumed the toxins on his palm, and then reached out his arm to Cui Kaixin.
“Thank you for your cooperation.”
Seeing Red Ghost extending his hand for a handshake, Cui Kaixin was not surprised but delighted, and he shook hands openly.
“You’re welcome.”
Cui Kaixin said, and then suddenly saw Red Ghost’s hand clenched into a fist.
Elemental Power erupted.
A roaring sound filled his ears.
The fist kept expanding in his eyes.
He clearly saw a few scales resembling dragon scales floating on that fist.
Those few shiny scales are as red as blood, with a subtle smell that is hard to detect.
Cui Kaixin was shocked and wanted to retreat, but the fist suddenly accelerated and hit him right between the eyebrows.
Then he saw Red Ghost back off a bit, turning away and walking towards the small temple.
“Wait…”
Tracy was about to catch up, but suddenly the ground cracked all around him, turning into darkness, and he couldn’t feel anything anymore.
Yao Yangye on the ground saw with horror as Tracy’s body twisted and deformed from his head, as if he had no bones, quickly turning into a pile of mud.
Then he remembered he was poisoned, and quickly called out to Red Ghost for help, “Wait, save me, save me.”
Luo Yan ignored him.
As he walked out of the God of Wealth Temple, all the men from the Kaiyang Group were shocked.
Lian Lian stepped back.
He probably guessed what happened in the temple.
Luo Yan glanced lightly at them.
The men all shuddered, then a clever man came out from inside, knelt down behind Luo Yan.
“I am Wang Hui, willing to serve Mr. Red Ghost loyally, willing to go through any hardships without hesitation!”
The other men were surprised and cursed in their hearts, but they followed suit and knelt down to swear.
Then the whole street in front of the temple, with about a hundred people on both sides of the street, looked at each other.
Soon, one after another, the voices of swearing sounded.
Luo Yan didn’t say anything, just told Wen Zou, “It’s over to you next.”
“Don’t go into the temple for now, the air inside is poisonous, watch out for it.”
Wen Zou quickly said, “I understand.”
After sending away Luo Yan, Wen Zou thought to himself, “Captain Red Ghost dares to go in knowing it’s dangerous, it’s really scary, he might be even scarier than that woman Yu Qiushui.”
“What should I do, should I really follow Captain Red Ghost for real or just pretend?”
Jude Building.
Quiet room.
Luo Yan entered the room and took out Cui Kaixin’s phone.
The guy just now thought he could delay time secretly, but little did he know, Luo Yan saw through all his thoughts.
So after getting the information he wanted, Luo Yan prepared to use his powers to attack, with intermediate Elemental Power, and the incomplete ‘Dragon Transformation’ power.
Using a skill called ‘Broken Bone’, he defeated the enemy on the second floor.
He had planned to finish the team mission given by Yu Qiushui first, but now he needed to prioritize dealing with Liu Xiao.
Luo Yan called Yu Qiushui directly.
After the phone was answered.
Yu Qiushui, with a slight stuffy nose, said, “Captain Red Ghost, have you changed your mind and want to be my man?”
Luo Yan ignored her teasing and said seriously, “Liu Xiao is colluding with the ‘Yellow Spring’ organization to target me, how should we handle this?”
There was a moment of silence on the phone, then Yu Qiushui said seriously, “Tell me more details.”
After Luo Yan explained briefly, Yu Qiushui asked, “Do you have any evidence?”
“Cui Kaixin’s phone is still with me, it has call records with Liu Xiao, does that count?” Luo Yan glanced at the phone on the table.
Yu Qiushui said right away, “Of course, forget about it.”
“Liu Xiao has crossed the line by doing this.”
“It’s okay to have disagreements within the organization, but using outsiders to target your own people is something the organization will never allow!”
“Moreover, the ‘Yellow Spring’ organization is very powerful and secretly holds the top position in the southern region.”
“We ‘Heiwu’ were already competitors.”
“Liu Xiao is digging his own grave by doing this.”
“There are two ways to handle this matter. First, I report it and you don’t have to do anything, the organization will take action through the enforcement team.”
“Second, I provide Liu Xiao’s location and you act on your own to deal with it.”
Luo Yan pondered for a few seconds, then asked, “What’s the difference between the two ways?”
