Ling Yue's word "childish" was extremely damaging.

Wu Xie stopped stopping Li Cu's tortoise from thrashing about and instead reached out to pull him up.

Li Cu only glared at Wu Xie, without making a scene to settle scores with him, and quickly put on her clothes.

To be honest, wearing wet boxer shorts is quite uncomfortable.

While Ling Yue turned and walked towards the camp, not looking in his direction, Li Cu quickly reached into his pants and tugged at his boxer shorts.

Although it's still wet, at least it's not so tight anymore.

Wu Xie noticed and gave him a mocking look.

Li Cu snorted at him and quickly quickened her pace to rush uphill.

But just as they were about to cross the sand dune, Wu Xie grabbed them and pressed them to the ground, saying, "Something's wrong, something's happened over there!"

When Li Cu looked, he saw that it was Su Nan's men and the fool Galu who had subdued everyone else.

Li Cu gasped, "What's going on? Isn't Galu an idiot?"

Wu Xie slapped him on the head, "You're the idiot! It's obvious he was faking it!"

Li Cu didn't believe it: "Didn't you just figure it out yourself? What's with the smugness!"

Ling Yue squatted down beside her, mercilessly stabbing Li Cu in the heart: "No, you're the only one who just figured it out."

Li Cu: QAQ

Wu Xie quickly made arrangements: "Li Cu, you stay here and don't go down and cause trouble. Ling Yue and I will go down."

Li Cu, however, was unconvinced and scrambled to his feet, rushing down the slope: "What time is it! Let's go, let's go, let's hurry and save people!"

Wu Xie froze, turning back to look at Ling Yue as if to ask: Huh? Did I see that right? This kid went down to save someone?

Ling Yue nodded slightly: "Let's go, Little Chicken has gone to deliver vegetables." They had to hurry and catch up, lest Little Chicken get eaten.

When Li Cu rushed over, he was full of momentum, but he was knocked down and sent flying by Ga Lu's punch.

Wu Xie and Garu, who were close behind, exchanged blows, and Wu Xie clearly gained the upper hand.

This was unexpected for Ling Yue.

Just as Wu Xie was about to subdue Garu, Old Mai suddenly pointed a gun at Wu Xie's head, forcing Wu Xie to stop.

Galu then went to provoke Li Cu again.

It's time for her to get to work.

Just as Ling Yue was about to go up, he saw Li Cu's eyes suddenly turn black and his strength suddenly become great, and he threw Ga Lu away in one go.

Ling Yue wondered to himself, could this be the special quality that Wu Xie wanted people to see in Li Cu?

Unfortunately, this state was short-lived, and in the blink of an eye, Li Cu was once again being suppressed and beaten by Garu.

Just as Garu pinned the man to the ground and raised his fist, Ling Yue, who was not far away, pulled out a bamboo cane and flung it out.

The bamboo staff itself was incredibly heavy, and with Ling Yue throwing it with his internal force, it flew towards Garu with unstoppable momentum.

Garu felt a tremendous force slam into his shoulder, sending him flying a great distance before he slid several meters across the sand.

When Garu realized what was happening, he looked up and saw that the bamboo cane that had just bumped into him was being pulled back by a thin white silk thread.

Following the flying bamboo staff, Garu saw Ling Yue with a cold expression.

Earlier, we heard that a highly skilled person, suspected to be a member of the Zhang family, had appeared by Wu Xie's side.

Garu didn't take him seriously at first, because he was considered a skilled elite in the Wang family and had a natural arrogance.

Unexpectedly, the opponent was so powerful that he crippled his right arm with just one simple move.

Clutching his limp right arm, Garu stared at Ling Yue with a gloomy and resentful look in his eyes.

He had just clearly heard the sound of his arm bones shattering inch by inch, and as soon as he touched them, Garu knew that all three bones in his arm were broken.

Even with the best medical treatment in the future, Garu's right hand will never be able to return to its original state!

Because of Ling Yue's intervention, the situation at the scene, which was under the control of Su Nan and others, changed once again.

From the moment Ling Yue appeared, Su Nan stared at her nervously.

When Ling Yue saw Wu Xie being held at gunpoint by Lao Mai, he didn't even glance at him. It wasn't until Garu attacked Li Cu that Ling Yue intervened.

Thus, Su Nan breathed a sigh of relief for the time being.

As Ling Yue swung his bamboo cane, his eyes filled with murderous intent, and approached Garu step by step, clearly intending to send him away, Su Nan quickly spoke up: "Ling Yue! We won't touch Li Cu!"

Considering Ling Yue's usual behavior, Su Nan took the initiative to back down: "We can also hand over Boss Ma, Ma Rila, Director Wang, and the others to you to take away! We only want Wu Xie and Wang Meng!"

Ling Yue stopped and turned to look at Su Nan.

Having just been disciplined and terrified, Director Wang and his men felt that Su Nan's words were simply heavenly music!

Guozi couldn't help but sob and begged Ling Yue for help: "Ling Yue, please, take us away!"

Mr. Ma was stabbed and fell to the ground, his life hanging in the balance. Lulu was beside him, struggling to help him up.

Upon hearing this, Lulu realized something and cried out to Ling Yue in a panic, "Ling Yue! I beg you, please save our Old Ma! He was stabbed by Garu! He's about to die!"

Ling Yue went to look at Wu Xie again, but Wu Xie just smiled bitterly, as if she had already resigned herself to her fate.

Ling Yue understood that the old man was implying that he didn't need to worry about him.

“Sure.” Ling Yue readily agreed.

Ling Yue went to check on Boss Ma's condition and confirmed that he had only fainted due to blood loss, emotional fluctuations, and physical exhaustion.

"Bandage his wound and then take him to the tent to rest," Ling Yue instructed Lulu.

Knowing that Boss Ma wouldn't die, Lulu breathed a sigh of relief and quickly staggered to drag and support him back into the tent.

The five members of the crew, plus Ma Rila, huddled together like chicks looking for their mother hen, in the closest spot to Ling Yue.

Standing next to Ling Yue, Li Cu watched as Su Nan and the others threatened Wu Xie with Wang Meng in the distance, and couldn't sit still, feeling extremely uncomfortable: "Ling Yue, are we really going to abandon Wu Xie and Wang Meng?"

Ling Yue poked the sand with his bamboo cane, also keeping an eye on the situation developing over there.

She heard Wu Xie say that Su Nan and Garu were members of the Wang family.

The Wang family? An organization based on family units?

Li Cu's question went unanswered. He watched as Wu Xie and Wang Meng were held at gunpoint, his gaze hardening as if he had made a decision.

"Wu Xie, you really won't tell me where Gutongjing is?" After completely breaking off relations, Wu Xie revealed the true identities of Garu and Sunan. Sunan stopped pretending and pointed a gun at Wang Meng's head, threatening Wu Xie.

Wu Xie remained unmoved, and even said to Wang Meng, "Wang Meng, you go first, I'll be right down. Don't be afraid, it'll just hurt for a moment."

Wang Meng was on the verge of tears, but she still spoke with a tough edge: "If you want to kill or torture someone, come at me, don't hurt my boss!"

Garu, impatient, kicked Old Mai hard. "You, go over there and stab that kid a few times! I don't believe he won't talk!"

Old Mai was dissatisfied with Garu's domineering attitude, but Su Nan told them to listen to Garu, so he had no choice but to go to Wang Meng's side.

During this time, she unconsciously glanced in Ling Yue's direction.

Noticing Old Mai's timid hesitation, Garu gritted his teeth in hatred. If his right arm hadn't been crippled, he would have sent all these people away long ago—they were all a bunch of useless trash!

Even if you dawdle a bit longer, it's only a couple of steps away. Old Mai came to Wang Meng's side, put the knife to Wang Meng's neck, and turned to Wu Xie, pleading, "Wu Xie, just tell me! We're already here, we must be close to Gutongjing. What's the point of you keeping it a secret?"

Wu Xie showed a moment of hesitation.

Seeing that things were looking promising, Su Nan waved Old Mai away, "Wu Xie, look, Ling Yue seemed to be getting along very well with you all along, but when it came to the crucial moment, wasn't he only concerned about Li Cu? Do you know what she said to me by the lake last time?"

She noticed that Wu Xie's eyes were fixed intently on her.

Su Nan smiled and said, "She said she likes Li Cu, and if she could only choose one to take back between you and Li Cu, she would only choose Li Cu."

Wu Xie lowered his eyelids, and the trembling of his eyelashes revealed a hint of his true inner emotions.

Su Nan believed he had found the weakness in Wu Xie's confidence defense, so he was no longer in a hurry.

However, Garu saw the possibility that Su Nan was going to let Wu Xie go and take absolute control of the mission, which would mean that his arm would be wasted.

How could Garu, who was already gloomy, ruthless, and vindictive, accept this?

Suddenly, Garu snatched the gun from Old Mai's hand, pointed it at Wu Xie, whose expression wavered as if he were about to reveal the secret of Gutongjing at any moment, and laughed maniacally: "I've changed my mind, I don't want to hear it anymore! Wu Xie, you're too smart, I can't let you live!"

He was about to fire after saying that.

Unexpectedly, Su Nan suddenly pointed his gun at Garu, his eyes filled with warning: "Spare Wu Xie's life. If he dies, who will lead us to Gutongjing?"

Su Nan knew that Garu's mission was to go to Gutongjing. But her mission was Wuxie.

The two had different tasks, so their methods naturally differed as well.

The Wang family's style of doing things is to use any means to achieve their goals. Since Garu wanted to sabotage her mission, she naturally wouldn't hold back just because he was also a member of the Wang family.

However, Garu was unaware of this. He still thought that Su Nan's instruction to Lao Mai and the others meant that their missions were aligned.

Faced with the reasons given by Su Nan, Garu looked at Ling Yue and said, "With the Seven-Finger Map on that kid's back, are you afraid we won't be able to reach Gutongjing?"

Su Nan scoffed: "Then why don't you go deal with Ling Yue?"

Garu's expression shifted, clearly indicating that he was no match for Ling Yue.

Even though they had two guns, their ammunition was limited.

Given Ling Yue's skills, Garu wasn't really confident he could kill his opponent before running out of bullets.
