The Brilliant Life of a Post-Apocalyptic Female Boss Reborn at 70

Seeing Yun Bo remain silent, Poison Scorpion secretly guessed that the guy must be deeply considering the pros and cons.

Therefore, she did not rush to force the other party to make a statement, but slowly turned her head and cast her gaze at the man beside her.

"Go check if the secretary in the car is dead, and while you're at it, put the gun away!" Scorpion whispered.

The man nodded knowingly, and then strode quickly toward the front of the car.

Upon seeing this, Yunbo, who had been closely monitoring the situation, felt a chill run down his spine and shouted at the top of his lungs, "What exactly do you want to do?"

Upon hearing Yun Bo's sudden shout, the man stopped abruptly, turned to look at the scorpion, and a hint of hesitation and confusion appeared in his eyes.

The scorpion nodded slightly, indicating its permission, and only after receiving the instruction did the man feel at ease and continue on his way.

"Lord Yun, please don't misunderstand. The reason I sent my men to check was simply because I was worried that if your little secretary still had a chance of survival, and if she woke up in the future and realized that you had joined our organization, and went to report and expose this matter, then you would probably lose your due value!" Poison Scorpion explained slowly and deliberately, his words sounding quite sincere.

Yunbo knew that what the scorpion said made sense, and for a moment he couldn't find any words to refute it. Helpless, he could only silently agree to the man's impending actions.

The man approached the front of the car, gently opened the closed door, and cautiously extended his palm, tentatively bringing it close to Liu Yan's mouth and nose, sensing the faint flow of breath.

After a moment, he nodded with a sigh of relief, as if conveying an important message to the people behind him—Liu Yan had indeed died.

Suddenly, he was jolted awake. As a former enemy agent who had spent years teetering on the edge of life and death, he was quite sensitive to the smell of blood. Logically, if he had been shot and died, he would have bled a lot, but he hadn't smelled any blood at all.

Just then, as he made up his mind and was about to pull the trigger, a muffled gunshot rang out—bang! The man collapsed to the ground as if struck by a heavy blow.

All of this happened so quickly, catching everyone off guard.

However, the truth was that Liu Yan had planned this all along. He cleverly concealed the gun in his sleeve and quickly gripped it in his hand when the man bent down to check his breathing.

In fact, Liu Yan knew very well that she was not injured, and although her breathing could be temporarily stopped, her heartbeat could not be faked.

If he continued to delay, the enemy would surely discover his plan. The situation was urgent, and there was no time to hesitate. Left with no other choice, he had to decisively fire his gun and kill the man in front of him.

As gunfire erupted from Liu Yan's side, Yun Boyi acted decisively, throwing the jade ring in his hand fiercely towards the location of the enemy agents without hesitation.

In an instant, the jade thumb ring drew a graceful arc in the air, like a shooting star streaking across the sky.

Meanwhile, the situation on Scorpion's side was also changing rapidly. The moment the gun went off, everyone instinctively raised their weapons and stood ready for battle.

When Poison Scorpion saw that Yun Bo had thrown out a jade thumb ring, he couldn't help but feel contempt and ridicule: "Hmph, it's just a mere jade thumb ring. Does this guy think he's so angry that he's going to use it to hit me?"

Upon hearing this, everyone turned their guns around and pointed them all at the front of the car.

However, the moment Yunbo threw the jade ring, he knew in his heart that he was about to face a tragic end, being riddled with bullets.

Unexpectedly, fate is always full of dramatic twists. Just because of a careless remark from the scorpion, Yunbo, who was originally doomed, miraculously escaped death, which made him secretly rejoice.

At this moment, his gaze was fixed on the jade thumb ring that was about to fall to the ground, and his heart was filled with an eager expectation for a miracle to happen.

Finally, accompanied by the crisp sound of the jade ring striking the hard ground, a jaw-dropping scene unfolded—countless dazzling bolts of lightning appeared out of nowhere without warning, spreading rapidly in all directions like surging waves from the spot where the jade ring had fallen.

Faced with such a thrilling scene, Yunbo shouted without hesitation, "Xiao Liu, run!"

Before he finished speaking, he decisively turned around and ran away from the dangerous area.

Only when he felt his body stop trembling with fear did he stop in his tracks, slowly turn around, and gaze at the area that was still flashing with brilliant lightning.

Just then, a sudden burst of hurried footsteps broke the surrounding tranquility.

"Who is it?" Yunbo shouted.

"It's me, sir!" a familiar voice called out.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Liu Yan running towards them, panting heavily.

His face was ashen, clearly terrified by the earth-shattering commotion.

"My lord, what exactly happened?" Liu Yan asked anxiously, panting heavily.

Yunbo took a deep breath, turned his gaze into the distance again, and muttered to himself, "This is a weapon of enormous destructive power never seen before!"

His words revealed boundless shock and awe.

Liu Yan stared wide-eyed, her face full of suspicion, and asked, "Sir, when exactly did you acquire such a peculiar weapon?"

"You know that too!" The other person replied with a slight upturn of their lips, a half-smile playing on their lips.

"I know? How so?"

Liu Yan frowned, deep in thought. Suddenly, his heart skipped a beat, and he exclaimed, "Could it be...?"

"That's right, it's that jade thumb ring!"

Before she could finish speaking, she saw a scene of utter devastation ahead, a truly horrific sight. Liu Yan patted her chest, still shaken, feeling incredibly fortunate.

"Luckily, as soon as I heard your call, I ran as fast as I could, otherwise... the consequences would have been unimaginable!"

"To be honest, I didn't expect at first that the life-saving treasure Yiyi mentioned would be this. However, it's best to keep this a secret for now, and let me think of a proper explanation!"

Liu Yan was certainly not the kind of person who was simple-minded and physically strong. The destructive power displayed by this thing in front of him was truly astonishing.

Compared to most weapons today, it is not only more terrifying, but also easy to carry. If the news were to leak out, it would surely cause a huge uproar in the world.

"Sir, are we just going to waste our time here? I'm afraid we won't be able to save our carriage!" Liu Yan looked around worriedly.

"Let's rest here for a while and wait for the lightning to completely subside before we go to check if there are any survivors!"

Liu Yan nodded and sat down on the ground, but still couldn't help trembling slightly.
