Chapter 407: Chapter 406 Hunting Meeting
"Something is abnormal."
Lin Hao didn’t react much to Song Qinghong’s anger. He had always thought this matter shouldn’t be so simple, yet the Western resistance seemed to be completely nonexistent.
No one knows if it was because of those three Black Bombs that the Westerners lifted a rock only to drop it on their own feet, but Lin Hao and his party were thoroughly ignored.
Even when they live streamed their slaughter of the East Atlantic Company and Eight Great Families’ people, the West paid them no more attention.
"Indeed, it isn’t normal; damn, it feels like we’ve been used."
Huai Shian sat on a large rock, his eyes cold: "These past few days, the places I’ve been to, besides a few stubborn ones, were empty. And their assets, I haven’t found a single thing! No Primordial Stones, no weapons, nothing!"
"I heard that the Primordial Stones and all kinds of wealth of the East Atlantic Company and the Eight Great Families have been confiscated by their countries. We seem to have made the wedding dress for them!" Song Taishan took out a mobile phone, glanced at it, and his brows furrowed together.
These matters were not secrets. In this era, such a big move would quickly hit the news.
"Damn it next door! Just as I thought!"
Suddenly, Song Taishan got up, and almost smashed his phone with a swing of his hand.
"We’ve been killing everywhere for the past two days, not knowing that they’d already nationalized all the assets of the East Atlantic Company and moved them all!"
"Now, their Primordial Stones are all hidden in a place we know nothing about!"
"I... bought a watch last year!"
Song Taishan was very frustrated, that place they knew nothing about was obviously the national treasuries of various countries.
Originally, revenge was only part of this operation. The huge amount of Primordial Stones plundered by the West over the past five years was what everyone was mainly after, but now they haven’t gotten anything.
Even the revenge aspect was far from the intended goal.
Anger, frustration.
Watching Song Taishan explode in rage, Song Qinghong, on the other hand, had a gloomy expression and remained silent.
"Someone’s coming!"
Suddenly, Lan Xinxin frowned, turned around cautiously to look at the distant darkness, where a figure leaped swiftly from the shadows.
"One of our own."
The approaching figure had no killing intent and did not bother to conceal his movements, even broadcasting his presence, allowing Lin Hao to identify the person based on the aura alone.
"Lin Hao!"
A crisp female voice rang out from the darkness, followed by a seductive young girl appearing before them.
"Li Yuan, what brings you here?"
Lin Hao waved his hand, Lan Xinxin retreated a step, but remained vigilant of the seductive woman in front of them.
"I came to bring you the latest news, the Fourth Elder has ordered you to return," Li Yuan approached, her gaze sweeping over everyone before resting on Ziyue, who was concealed in the darkness, and a flash of sharpness in her eyes made her take a sharp breath.
This woman, she had seen in a video, but encountering Ziyue in person and facing the aura emanating from her was truly astonishing to Li Yuan.
"Return? What for? We’re not done with our affairs yet!"
Huai Shian was incredibly displeased, as the failure of this mission was due to Dragon Needle’s excessive caution - they provided intelligence but did not assist, and did not send reinforcements. Now great, apart from the headquarters of the Eight Great Families and the East Atlantic Company being bloodily revenged upon, nothing else was accomplished!
"You don’t need to continue with your tasks. The revenge has been taken; the Fourth Elder has asked you to return."
"Go to hell, Fourth Master!" Huai Shian spat, growing more dissatisfied.
"Show some respect!" Long Si was one of the leaders of Dragon Needle and also Li Yuan’s mentor. Li Yuan’s face immediately turned ugly at Huai Shian’s rebuke.
"Respect? If I respected him, I would’ve greeted him already! If it wasn’t for his pettiness, being so hesitant and cowardly, would we be in this situation? Now look at us, the enemies have turned into turtles hiding in their shells, we gained nothing, and instead, we’ve been played by others who’ve swallowed up everything. Respect him? Ha! Isn’t he just afraid of starting World War III? Afraid of what! I’m not scared at all!"
Huai Shian was really in a bad mood today, directly clashing with Li Yuan.
"You... what do you know!" Li Yuan was angry too, but at a loss for words, her charming face flushed red.
"Enough, stop arguing."
Seeing them quarrel, Lin Hao finally intervened.
"Huai Shian, cool off on the side. Everyone is in a bad mood with how things have turned out."
This mission actually met Lin Hao’s expectations; after all, he could only mobilize a few people. To learn from the Eight Great Families headquarters, overthrow the East Atlantic Company, and kill John Robert was already quite satisfying for him.
However, it did indeed rankle Lin Hao that it seemed like the other side hardly felt a thing from their efforts.
But, as annoyed as he was, Lin Hao certainly wasn’t in the mood to take the opportunity to start World War III.
"Did you need me for something?"
After Huai Shian stepped aside, Lin Hao turned to look at Li Yuan.
Facing Lin Hao, Li Yuan’s attitude immediately improved quite a bit: "The Western Group has requested that we cease fighting and unite..."
"Unite my ass! If they want unity, pigs might as well climb trees!"
Huai Shian, who had just settled on a rock, immediately jumped up as if his butt had been scorched.
"Shut your mouth!"
This time, Lin Hao had to scold him, glaring fiercely at Huai Shian who then quieted down and started fuming at the rock.
"Continue."
Lin Hao was feeling odd at this moment.
According to his prediction, the East Atlantic Company suffered heavy losses, three Western cities were destroyed in an instant, fifty million people died. Such affairs couldn’t just be diminished into nothing.
Moreover, over these two days, they had been arrogantly killing people all over the Western territories.
How could such things possibly be suppressed just like that?
Logically, at this moment, the Western powers should be launching World War III and issuing a global warrant for Lin Hao. That would be the expected response.
Strange, very strange.
Lin Hao furrowed his brows, looking at Li Yuan.
"Fourth Master says, it’s actually not hard to explain. Because, they are afraid of you." Li Yuan’s lips curved slightly, sweetly looking at Lin Hao: "The capable cultivators of the Western are now on Resurrection Island. These past years, they’ve allowed everyone to enter Resurrection Island, but they’ve controlled the best areas of it. Currently, they cannot spare anyone from Resurrection Island. That day, with one move you instantly killed twelve of their Sky-breaking experts, scaring them."
"So, they don’t dare to deal with me?"
Lin Hao himself couldn’t believe this was true.
"Of course not, Fourth Master says, they want you to go to Resurrection Island for a hunt, to kill you there on Resurrection Island," Li Yuan said, taking out a map.
However, before she finished speaking, Huai Shian couldn’t help but roar again: "Ha, what are they, thinking we’ll just go to Resurrection Island to court death? Can’t we just start World War III first, annihilate their countries, slaughter their families, leave them homeless? Why should we follow their lead? Hunt on Resurrection Island? Pah!"
