Disciple, go down the mountain and wreak havoc on your martial sister
Chapter 80 - 80 79 Gunshots in the Ruins

80: Chapter 79 Gunshots in the Ruins 80: Chapter 79 Gunshots in the Ruins Dense gunfire coalesced into a continuous roar as the overturned business vehicle sparked wildly, in the blink of an eye, riddled with a dense pattern of bullet marks.

Chu Yi leaned against the back of the car, glancing up at the sky while flipping a dagger in his hand.

“The stars really are bright tonight,”

he muttered in amazement amid the popping sound of gunfire.

He hadn’t noticed before, but lately, the stars seemed to shine brighter than usual, which was strange as in a city like Binhai with severe light pollution, the night sky shouldn’t be this bright.

The Big Dipper especially shone with an unusual brilliance.

As his thoughts wandered, the gunfire abruptly ceased.

The attackers finally realized that their bullets couldn’t penetrate the reinforced business vehicle.

Chu Yi refocused his gaze and looked up to see Claude making several hand signals, followed by two off-road vehicles flanking from the left and right, respectively.

“This is a bit too much,”

Chu Yi frowned slightly, seeing the off-road vehicles drawing nearer; he had to take a risk and dash towards the ruins behind him, or else once the two vehicles were in position, he’d be nothing but a sitting duck.

“Fire!”

Spotting his movement, the people in the car opened fire again.

Chu Yi’s movements became erratic, with bullets hitting the ground next to him, kicking up clouds of dirt and fleeting sparks.

But in just a few blinks, Chu Yi had vanished into the ruins, leaving Claude swearing furiously.

“Trash!

Such a close range, and you didn’t hit him with a single bullet!”

“Boss, his movements are too unpredictable, we…”

The man inside the vehicle tried to explain but was cut off midway.

Over the radio, Claude ordered sternly, “I don’t want to hear excuses.

Go after him immediately!

Dead or alive, bring him to me!”

“Yes!”

Hearing Claude’s words, Zheng Yu immediately panicked, rushed forward, grabbed Claude’s arm, and said, “Claude, calm down!

Chu Yi is extraordinarily skilled; charging in rashly is no different from suicide!”

“Get lost!

Who do you think we are?

Huh?

Your family’s bunch of incompetents?”

Claude cursed unabashedly, “Instead of worrying about that, you’d better start worrying about whether his money is still there!”

Upon hearing this, Zheng Yu’s face flushed red with anger.

The Zheng Family, who could once command the wind and rain in Binhai, were now insulted by a foreigner.

If it had been before, Zheng Yu would not have tolerated it and would have made the offender pay.

But times had changed.

Since the Han Corporation began its fierce onslaught against the Zheng Family, adopting a do-or-die attitude, the Zheng family’s standing had plummeted.

Former allies and partners took sides, most distancing themselves from the Zheng Family.

Those who couldn’t extricate themselves also didn’t see any hope in outlasting the Han Corporation and started seeking other avenues.

In such a situation, the Zheng Family stood alone and unsupported; to make Claude pay was out of the question, let alone continue surviving.

With this in mind, Zheng Yu felt as if a rock was lodged in his chest, making him utterly miserable.

“Fine, if you insist on courting death, that’s your choice!”

He stopped persuading and walked aside to make a phone call back home.

“Dad, these people are unreliable; we should prepare to leave.”

There was a moment of silence on the other end, then a simple acknowledgment before the call ended.

Zheng Yu turned to look at Claude, who was staring at the battlefield, with a gaze akin to looking at a dead man.

I’ll see how you die later!

At that moment, all the armed personnel had reached the edge of the ruins.

After deploying flares, they entered the ruins in groups of three, forming six teams.

However, not even two minutes after they walked in, a sudden scream echoed sharply.

Then, chaotic gunfire sounded for two seconds before abruptly stopping, and the ruins fell back into dead silence.

“Report the situation!”

Claude’s heart tightened, and he quickly grabbed the radio to command.

After each of the five squads had reported in, only the fourth squad remained silent.

Clearly, they must have all been wiped out…

In less than half a minute, three well-trained elite operatives had been killed!

Claude furrowed his brows, suddenly feeling that Zheng Yu’s warning might not have been unfounded.

After some thought, he picked up the radio, switched to a different channel, and spoke gravely, “This is Claude.

The target is tough, requesting Sea Serpent support.”

“Received!”

Just as the reply had finished, gunfire erupted from the ruins once more, and just like before, after a few seconds, there was silence.

Another team gone…

This couldn’t continue!

“Everyone, pull out immediately!”

No sooner had Claude issued the order than gunfire sounded again, and screams came over the radio.

He instantly pictured his men being overwhelmed by a barrage of bullets.

“Fuck!

It must be that guy, using the weapons of fallen teammates.”

Claude, in a fit of anger, punched the car door so hard that it left a dent, then he drew his custom-made large revolver from his waist and strode toward the ruins.

“What the hell are you doing?!”

Zheng Yu couldn’t sit still any longer, and promptly tried to stop him.

If they all died, it was unlikely that he’d be able to leave here alive either!

Claude pushed him away so forcefully that Zheng Yu fell to the ground: “Get lost!

Since when do you get a say in my actions?”

Having said that, he advanced toward the ruins with his gun ready.

“What an idiot!”

Zheng Yu spat in disgust as he watched Claude’s retreating figure.

Then his gaze fell on the SUV beside him.

If they were courting death, he wouldn’t join them!

Zheng Yu got up to enter the vehicle, but just as he opened the door, a gunshot rang out, and a bullet pierced his palm.

“Ah!”

He screamed in shock, clutching at the large hole blown through his hand, and turned to look at the ruins.

There, he saw a woman slightly adjusting her rifle before pulling the trigger again.

Bang!

Zheng Yu’s knee shattered, and he collapsed to the ground.

Wei Mei snorted coldly, quickly retracted her rifle back into the ruins, and the next moment, Claude’s revolver fired, blasting a large hole in a wobbly wall.

“Fuck!”

A shot missed, and Claude cursed angrily, casting a cold glance back at Zheng Yu.

He then turned and continued on without a second look, ignoring Zheng Yu’s cries for help.

“Damn it, you’re all dead!”

Cursing furiously under his breath, he entered the ruins.

He hadn’t gone far before he came across three of his men on the ground, one with a dagger stuck in his goggles, the other two with their throats slit.

The scene indicated that they had put up no effective resistance.

Claude’s expression grew stern as he pressed on and encountered his other men, ambushed and killed.

Even with bulletproof vests, they couldn’t withstand the close-range burst of gunfire; a dozen men were stacked on top of each other, presenting a gruesome sight.

Claude’s eye twitched, and he clenched the gun in his hand.

Just then, a mocking voice came from behind him.

“In a movie, someone like you should be the first to die.”
