The Master’s Mask Unveiled Again
Chapter 558 - Chapter 558 Chapter 557 This Hatred is Unshared Under the Heavens

Chapter 558: Chapter 557 This Hatred is Unshared Under the Heavens Chapter 558: Chapter 557 This Hatred is Unshared Under the Heavens The hamburger box was forcefully slammed to the ground, making a dull sound.

The contents rolled out in response, immediately causing a mess on the floor.

Following this signal-like noise, ten men dressed alike in sportswear burst into the villa without any warning.

A group of people surrounded Lu Mian and the other two.

The Mercenary Leader snickered coldly.

Don’t think that only Lu Mian could find helpers; they had made thorough preparations this time.

Ten brothers had been lying in ambush outside, all to take away Lu Mian’s hands!

The Leader squinted at Lu Mian and Yun Sang across from him.

It was only when they finally stopped staring at the hamburger that he reclaimed a bit of his dignity as a mercenary.

Yun Sang and Lu Mian seemed pretty calm at the moment.

It was that eerie calm before the storm.

The two of them looked at the Mercenary Leader expressionlessly, their smiles syncing up to reveal a subtly wicked charm.

Mo Si glanced in their direction and wondered if his eyes were playing tricks on him; he actually thought that Miss Lu and Guardian God had somewhat similar profiles.

.cO

Being the closest to Yun Sang and Lu Mian, Mo Si didn’t even have time to ponder the hamburger incident; he just felt the hairs on his body stand on end, goosebumps spreading across his skin without reason, and a shiver ran through him.

He spoke softly in an attempt to soothe, “Miss Lu, don’t be nervous.”

He thought Lu Mian was scared.

Although Lu Mian was usually awesome, even the Guardian God of Wucheng, it was normal to be fearful in the face of merciless mercenaries.

Lu Mian glanced at Mo Si and said lightly, “Mo Si, stand down.”

Mo Si tried to persuade her, “Miss Lu, they are mercenaries, extremely vicious!”

Yun Sang, impatient, interrupted, “When I tell you to stand down, you stand down.

Sister, you go rest over there too.”

Lu Mian sneered, “The one who should take a break is you.

Neither of you should interfere in this matter.”

Mo Si: …

“Impossible,” Yun Sang said leisurely as he took off his coat.

The two of them were even arguing now, as if they were competing for a kill, completely ignoring the mercenaries around them.

The Mercenary Leader lost his temper, “Shut up, all of you!”

Yun Sang’s slender, handsome brows and eyes swept around the circle, eyeing everyone once, flipping his coat with his fingertips, and tossing it casually onto a stone platform, ready to spring into action.

Lu Mian, meanwhile, moved her wrists around and tilted her neck side to side, warming up as well.

“Ten seconds for you to say your last words,” she said.

Lu Mian returned these words to them, her gaze sweeping over the mess on the floor, her eyes flashing cold once more.

The circle of mercenaries scoffed at their behavior, bursting out into haughty laughter.

Truly, ignorance is bliss.

The Leader didn’t sense the impending danger and said even more fiercely, “Lu Mian, no matter what you say, we’re set on taking those hands of yours!”

Lu Mian nodded, as if affirming their last words.

Very well.

It was as if she had lifted some sort of seal, her eyes now tinted with a bloodthirsty red, her hands at her sides filled with power.

Mo Si: “Miss Lu, Guardian God, don’t steal my jobaEUR|”

However, before Mo Si could finish speaking, Yun Sang made his move.

Yun Sang didn’t care about Mo Si’s rambling; he was just extremely annoyed now, extremely annoyed!

Yun Sang’s movements were incredibly fast, just like his hand speed during competitions; in the blink of an eye, he was already by the Mercenary Leader’s side.

Lu Mian furrowed her brow, beaten to the punchaEUR|

The battle was about to erupt.

As Yun Sang made his move, the mercenaries in the courtyard also sprang into action.

Mo Si then turned his focus to these men.

However, before he could make a move, he saw the once ferocious mercenaries fall one by one, with cries of pain echoing throughout the courtyard.

Mo Si was stunned on the spot.

In less than a minute, Yun Sang had returned.

He swept his sleeves, the kind without a single cloud in sight, returned with his chin raised, and his expression refreshed.

Mo Si’s eyes opened wide; other than a few afterimages, he had failed to catch even a glimpse of Guardian God’s figure.

Is this the power of Guardian God?

Looking around at the circle of mercenaries, all were rolling on the ground, clutching their stomachs.

As for the leader, his face had already swollen up, blood streaming down in an extremely humiliating posture, kneeling among several crushed hamburgers.

But was that it?

Not at all!

Yun Sang might have let off some steam, but Lu Mian’s anger had not yet been released.

She didn’t even glance at the pitiful state of the mercenaries, focusing only on the hamburgers on the ground, her face showing a look of distress.

Step by step, she approached the leader, her toe touching a dagger.

With a nimble flick, the dagger performed a beautiful arc and landed steadily in her palm.

She twirled the dagger impressively and leisurely squatted beside the leader.

The Mercenary Leader did a full 360-degree turnaround, no longer as arrogant as before, his body trembling.

Lu Mian, holding the dagger, ran it across his face, the icy blade mixed with the cold winter air freezing his capillaries upon contact.

Her eyes were as deep as an ice cave.

She emotionlessly asked, “Do you know where you went wrong?”

The leader, while dodging the blade, nodded frantically, “I know!

I know!

We shouldn’t have harmed Miss Lu!”

Lu Mian narrowed her eyes, seemingly dissatisfied.

She pressed harder, and the blade’s edge left a mark on the mercenary’s cheek.

A stream of hot blood trickled down.

The other ten mercenaries were so frightened, they didn’t dare to breathe.

They were used to treating others this way, not being treated like this themselves!

After all, they were also a member team of the Mercenary Alliance, and their strength was definitely above average!

They thought today was just a small job; who would have guessed that their life’s glory would be ruined on such a simple task!

“Not profound enough,” the girl’s cool breath uttered.

She stared at the blood flowing from the leader’s wound, not showing any sign of flinching, but instead a hint of excitement about breaking free of the restraints.

The leader shrank his body into a ball in fear.

“I am sorry, Miss Lu!

We shouldn’t have accepted this mission!”

Lu Mian sneered, the dagger spun a few times in her hand, and she disdainfully tossed it to the ground.

Rising to her feet, her tone still irked.

“No one stopped you from taking on missions, but if you do a mission, do the mission.

Why did you have to drop my hamburger, hmm?”

The leader’s eyes widened as he looked up at Lu Mian.

Hamburgers?

Lu Mian closed her eyes with regret and annoyance; hamburgers…

“This grudge cannot be shared!” Yun Sang added as he walked over, “Originally, you didn’t have to end up this miserable…”

Leader: So, it’s because he dropped their hamburgers that he ended up like this?

He could never have guessed that it was for this reason!

Mo Si looked at the two bosses, who were fixated on the hamburgers, speechless.

Only now did he realize that when Guardian God mentioned “stealing food,” could it have been the hamburgers?

He knew that the diet of the Shadow Hunting Team’s members was handled by Zhou Xin, controlled very strictly with balanced nutrition every day.

But in such a critical moment, what were these two doing?
