Chapter 82: Chapter 82: Strike, Kill!No one had expected that the supposedly foolproof arrangements made by Liu Yu and his team would still fall into an ambush, and right from the start, both their retreat paths forward and behind were blocked, trapping them in a seemingly fatal predicament. Just as Yong Chun Tai had ordered a retreat, Jiang Meng and Fei Yun were preparing to back their vehicle out to open an escape route, ensuring they wouldn’t be caught between attacks from the front and back. At this critical moment, Ye Tianchen uttered, "Too late," and before Jiang Meng and Fei Yun could even react, another explosion thundered, and the path behind their vehicle was sealed by massive rocks tumbling down. "Protect the young lady!" After a glance at Ye Tianchen, Yong Chun Tai shouted before quickly flinging the car door open and rushing out with agility that belied his age of over sixty. Gunfire was everywhere, and a barrage of bullets riddled the small sedan carrying Ye Tianchen and Liu Rumei. Had the entire body of the car not been heavily bulletproofed, it would have been peppered with holes. Liu Yu and his men used the vehicle for cover as they returned fire, while Jiang Meng and Fei Yun also darted out, sharing a look before simultaneously sprinting toward the mountains on either side. Liu Rumei watched all this with intense nervousness. Though not merely a decorative woman, she had never experienced such a shocking scenario. Before coming to M country for the mission to exchange secret information, Liu Rumei knew there were risks, but she never imagined it would be this severe. They had just arrived in Washington and before even reaching the transaction site, they were bombarded by a veritable hail of bullets. Whether they could finish the mission or even return home alive was uncertain. At Liu Rumei’s most anxious, she looked at Ye Tianchen, who sat beside her, and sank into utter frustration. There he was, cocking his legs casually, a cigarette dangling from his lips, humming a tune now and then, completely unfazed by the bloody ambush outside. "Hey, you still in the mood to smoke? We’ve been ambushed. We could die," Liu Rumei couldn’t help but shout at Ye Tianchen. Turning to glance at Liu Rumei, Ye Tianchen then turned away and continued to smoke, completely ignoring her words as if he hadn’t heard the gunfire and bullets outside at all. Seeing Ye Tianchen disregard her, Liu Rumei bit her seductive lips with anger boiling inside her. Being a woman, she had never before faced such a terrifying situation, especially with the occasional screams outside. Bullets didn’t have eyes, and by now, who knew how many had died. "You big jerk, say something. What are we going to do?" Liu Rumei asked, somewhat anxiously. "Respond to change with constancy," replied Ye Tianchen leisurely. "You... You’re not planning to just sit in this car and wait to die, are you?" "Right now, staying in the car is the safest option, Miss," Ye Tianchen replied, looking at Liu Rumei with disdain. When Liu Rumei saw Ye Tianchen’s attitude toward her, her anger peaked. She clenched her delicate hands into fists. This guy had none of the manners of a gentleman or any compassion. He had once peeped at her bathing, and she had let it slide without holding him accountable, but now he was treating her like this. After all, she was the most beautiful woman in Capital City and had never been ignored by any man like this. Ye Tianchen’s expressions and tone of voice showed extreme impatience, as if he had no desire to speak to her at all, which infuriated Liu Rumei even more. "Then go out and help Liu Yu and Yong Chun Tai. The sooner you drive off the enemy, the better," Liu Rumei suggested after a moment’s thought. "If I leave, a certain pig-headed person might lose her protection and end up crying," Ye Tianchen said without even looking at Liu Rumei.

You’re the biggest, dumbest pig-headed," Liu Rumei stuttered in her cute anger. Ye Tianchen couldn’t be bothered with Liu Rumei. Although he seemed indifferent to the raging battle outside, he had already extended his Superpower Perception to fully grasp the situation. To Ye Tianchen’s surprise, among those attacking them this time were neither powerful mercenaries nor formidable Superpower Users, just a group of somewhat capable assassins. It appeared that the opposition was merely probing, wanting to see how many experts had come with Liu Rumei for the transaction. "These two guys are indeed skilled. The strength of the Falcon Unit is not to be underestimated. I should find an opportunity to spar with their rival Yan Long," Ye Tianchen muttered to himself, watching Jiang Meng and Fei Yun rushing up the mountainsides swiftly. Jiang Meng and Fei Yun were among the stronger members of the Falcon Unit, elite soldiers. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have been entrusted by Yan Long with this mission. Dashing up to the mountain peaks, both wielding a dagger, they dodged the gunfire and with each stabbing motion, an assassin fell. On the other side, Liu Yu truly lived up to his reputation as the former leader of the Slaughter Mercenary Group, rumored to have the potential to become the fourth War King of China. In less than five minutes after charging out, he had already killed six assassins, with each shot hitting the head, scaring the other assassins from daring to rush forward. As for Yong Chun Tai, he vanished as soon as he got out of the car, seemingly in search of the leader of this ambush. Capturing the ringleader first was critical—the assassins would keep charging relentlessly without taking down their leader, which would still pose a great threat to them. Whoosh! A screech, a beam of light, raced toward the sedan where Ye Tianchen and Liu Rumei were, and before anyone could react, Ye Tianchen had already opened the car door, scooped up a stunned Liu Rumei, and dashed dozens of meters away, tackling to the ground. Boom! An earth-shattering explosion followed. Even though the cars they were using were fully bulletproof, they were sent flying. Instantly, fire reached the sky, and the sedan Ye Tianchen and Liu Rumei had been in was blasted to pieces. If not for Ye Tianchen sensing the danger in time and swiftly getting out and opening the door to rescue Liu Rumei, the most beautiful woman in Capital City might already be gone. "Ah, you big jerk, what are you doing..." Liu Rumei came to her senses from the shock, only to find Ye Tianchen on top of her, his hands pressing on her chest and his head buried in her neck. The pose couldn’t be more awkward. "If you don’t want to die, stay here and don’t move!" Ye Tianchen sprung up to his feet without paying attention to Liu Rumei, leaving behind this comment before darting out. He sensed a formidable mercenary emerging from right in front of them among the rubble. He had to kill their leader, or there was no telling how many more assassins would swarm them. There, standing in the dark, opposite the debris that faced Ye Tianchen and the others’ vehicles, a burly man with a sinister smile watched the scene unfold. He hid in the darkness, observing everything without making a move. After being employed by the US government, their Mercenary Group made arrangements. As one of the deputy leaders, he was dispatched by the leader to test the waters and see how many strong experts had come from China this time. Initially, their ambush had the upper hand, surrounding the three black stretch Lincolns and trapping their occupants like fish in a barrel. However, they had not expected that among those from China coming for the trade, there were several experts. Instantly, they killed dozens of his men, particularly three of them had the strongest skills; almost no one under his command could match them. "Hmph, Easterners daring to come to our US for a data trade, truly courting death," the burly man hiding in the darkness said icily in fluent Chinese. Suddenly, the burly man saw a figure charge at him like lightning, so fast it was unbelievable, which shocked him. He had never expected that someone would come charging at him while he was hidden in this dark spot, where it was absolutely impossible to be found. Despite his astonishment, the burly man was a deputy leader of a Mercenary Group and was by no means weak. Instinctively he drew a Desert Eagle and aimed to pull the trigger at the approaching figure. Just as he drew his gun, the figure had already reached him and swept a kick towards him. With no chance to dodge, the burly man could only block with his arms. Then he was sent flying by the kick, crashing heavily onto the ground and painfully scrambling to his feet, his eyes filled with surprise and anger. His Desert Eagle was knocked into the darkness, and he could not tell where it landed. He watched incredulously at the slim man less than two meters away from him. Weighing nearly two hundred kilograms and with significant strength, no one had ever sent him flying with a kick, especially not the Eastern man in front of him, who didn’t look that strong. "Who are you? How dare you strike Lock Bear? I will cut your flesh off slice by slice," the burly man roared. "Stop blabbering. Who sent you, and how many of you came this time?" Ye Tianchen, already considering Lock Bear a dead man, asked indifferently. "Hmph, so the East has sent some decent experts this time. But it’s all for nothing, we are the Blood Demon Mercenary Group, the strongest in the world. Against us, you only have one path—to death," Lock Bear scoffed disdainfully at Ye Tianchen. "It seems it’s a small world after all. Good, this time I’ll wipe out your group," Ye Tianchen thought of Sambaque. Wasn’t this man one of the deputies of the Blood Demon Mercancy Group? He hadn’t expected the US government to secretly hire people from the Blood Demon Mercenary Group this time. "Go to hell..." Lock Bear suddenly bellowed and pulled out two daggers from behind his back, swiftly stabbing at Ye Tianchen’s chest. Sadly, his stabs found only air as Ye Tianchen teleported with his superpower right in front of Lock Bear, grabbed his throat with his right hand, offered a smile of death, and directly twisted his neck.
