Tomb Raider: I Am Hu Bayi's Cousin

Chapter 678 It's over!

A dagger ripped through the night sky, traversing a mere few meters, and was firmly planted in Li Qunao's throat.

"Uh uh uh……"

Li Qunao stared wide-eyed at Zhang Rishan in disbelief, his hands covering his wound as blood gushed out like a fountain.

"You must have paid the price for your mistakes. Your father must have taught you this when you were a child."

"Do you really think I don't know anything about what you and the others have been doing? Tonight, even if you survive the Wang family, I will kill you with my own hands."

"Just like now. Who told me to be the current president of the Nine Gates Association?"

Zhang Yueshan lowered his hands expressionlessly and muttered to himself.

Clearly, Li Qunao, who was unwilling to close his eyes any longer, could not hear these words.

Having lived for over a hundred years, witnessed countless joys and sorrows of human life, and with at least a thousand lives on his hands, how could Zhang Yueshan possibly be a soft-hearted man?
In the past, in Beijing, due to various concerns and his attachment to old friendships, Zhang Yueshan concealed the cold and ruthless side of his personality.

But now, in this ancient city of Tongjing, there are fewer constraints, and Li Qunao and his ilk are openly violating the rules left by his beloved Buddha before his death.

How could Zhang Yueshan tolerate him?
"Mr. Lu was right. The wolf in sheep's clothing will eventually tear off its disguise and show its fangs."

Hu Ming chuckled softly, his gaze sweeping over his surroundings as he spotted many familiar faces.

Qi Anmei, the current head of the Qi family, lay quietly in a pool of blood, his eyes wide open in death, his once handsome face now filled with despair and resentment before his passing.

Not far from her, there was another person lying down, pretending to be dead!
It was Huo Youxue.

"First of all, Mr. Lu is not called Mr. Lu. This is just one of his more famous pen names."

"Secondly...this wasn't said by Mr. Lu. Don't attribute everything to the iron on Mr. Lu's body~"

Zhang Yueshan gave a blank, indifferent snort. "That's completely unimportant. Why so serious?"

Hu Ming withdrew his gaze, grinned, and ignored Su Nan, whose face was growing increasingly ashen.

"call…"

Su Nan took a deep breath, forcing herself to calm down from her anger at being ignored.

Subconsciously glancing at the group behind her, Su Nan's lingering fear of Hu Ming lessened slightly.

She still vividly remembers the scene of her team being massacred by Hu Ming last time.

However, those people last time were just a mob.

This time, Su Nan brought along the elite of the elite, trained by the Wang family over ten years!
Each person is equipped with a pistol; that's standard issue. Given the Wang family's current situation, they can't afford to have more firepower.
But with his considerable skill, Su Nan was confident that this time, he could definitely succeed!
"There are only three of them, and they're all armed with melee weapons. Charge! Take them down!"

Su Nan licked her dry lips, gave Hu Ming a deep look, suppressed some unclear thoughts in her heart, and waved her hand.

For the Wang family, Hu Ming was a blood feud.

Zhang Rishan was passable, after all, he was a descendant of the Zhang family, their arch-enemy. As for Hei Xiazi...
Su Nan didn't know much about Hei Xiazi, only that this blind man was a well-known independent tomb raider and had a friendly relationship with Hu Ming, nothing more. In other words, to Su Nan, Hei Xiazi was just an extra.

Under the bright moonlight, a blood-red massacre began!
……

From beginning to end, this was not a fair fight.

Although Hu Ming and his group only numbered three, Su Nan's side had a significant numerical advantage. However...
Less than twenty minutes later, this unequal battle was completely over.

Black Bear wiped the blood off his short knife expressionlessly, flashed the blade, and returned with a bloody grin. He gently wiped a smear of blood from the side of his face with his thumb.

Zhang Rishan, expressionless, bent down and casually tore off a relatively clean piece of rag from the pile of corpses on the ground, cleaning the blood from his hands and upper body.

With a casual flick of his wrist, Hu Ming's precious sword vanished into thin air. At the same time, he wiped his lips with one hand, and a cigarette suddenly appeared at his lips.

He snapped his fingers, and a lit lighter appeared in his hand. He took a deep breath and casually lit a cigarette.

In terms of sheer coolness, Hu Ming's move truly far surpasses that of Hei Xiazi and Zhang Yueshan.

In addition, the mysterious dragon and phoenix tattoos on his upper body, which shimmered with a faint light, brought Hu Ming's charisma to an almost unparalleled level.

Su Nan, the only surviving member of the Wang family present, stared blankly at the imposing Hu Ming, unable to react for a moment—there were dozens of them!
Unlike the rabble from last time, these people were well-trained, had excellent marksmanship, were far more skilled than ordinary people, and cooperated seamlessly with each other.
How could such a team be completely wiped out in such a short time?
Su Nan wondered if she was dreaming!
Even now, Su Nan is still replaying everything that just happened in her mind.

The scene from the desert kept replaying in my mind.

Am I all alone again?

Su Nan gave a self-deprecating laugh, threw away the knife and gun in her hand, wiped the blood splattered from the corner of her eye, and stared directly at Hu Ming.

Su Nan knew very well that when facing these three non-human beings alone, her supposedly impressive skills were a complete joke.

If these people were willing, she wouldn't even last a single move against any one of them; she would be easily subdued.

Last time, this harsh reality was proven.

Su Nan has one great advantage: self-awareness. Even if she's going to be tough, she won't do it this way.

"Do whatever you want with me. Kill me or lock me up and interrogate me for what you want to know, it doesn't matter."

"However, don't even think about getting any information about the Wang family out of me, not even you, Hu Ming!"

Su Nan tidied herself up, gave a self-deprecating laugh, and casually put her hands together in front of her chest.

"Intelligence about the Wang family, not our family?"

Hu Ming smiled.

Language is an art; one can discern a speaker's psychological state from subtle nuances.

From Su Nan's perspective, it's quite interesting that she's referring to the Wang family instead of our family.

Hei Xiazi and Zhang Yueshan were both shrewd people. They noticed this subtle point and their strange gazes lingered on Su Nan and Hu Ming.

The people the Wang family can send out are naturally trained from a young age and have undergone various forms of brainwashing, so their loyalty to the family goes without saying.

but…

The two old rascals suddenly realized something; they felt as if they had figured it out.

"Alright, alright, we're done. That little rascal Li Chu is still waiting for me downstairs!"

"Me too, Liang Wan is waiting for me too. Hu Ming, I'll leave her to you. We'll head out first."

Zhang Yueshan and Hei Xiazi said that they were quite good at reading people.
