Chapter 680: Unchanging Resolve

Chapter 680: Unchanging Nature (Update 3)

Xiao Yu walked slowly. Lin.

Activating his Wangdie’s Nose, he caught the body odors of many people.

In the darkness, Python’s Sense and Night Bat Wave endowed him with eyes that saw through everything.

The abandoned parking lot was indeed enormous.

Many sections had been partitioned into massive basements.

As he moved, Xiao Yu ‘saw’ numerous individuals lurking in corners, skulking as they eyed him warily.

It was somewhat amusing.

They assumed that in darkness, you wouldn’t see them.

Yet he saw everything with perfect clarity…

Observing them as they cautiously crept closer.

When a man reached Xiao Yu and raised a cleaver, before he could even swing his arm,

a cold muzzle silently pressed against his forehead.

“Hey, are you here to take a dump?” Xiao Yu chuckled.

The man nearly wanted to scream, “Are you some kind of demon…”

But alas… Bang!

Gunfire flashed.

The man’s head jerked; his skull split open at the back.

Meanwhile…

In that fleeting 0.1 second when the muzzle flashed,

it was enough for Xiao Yu to smile and swing his arm.

Bang bang bang…

Five consecutive shots felled five men.

After reloading, Xiao Yu slid his Sidearm into its holster and continued forward.

Until he stood before the door of a basement.

Boom!

He kicked the door open.

The sudden, dazzling light forced him to shut his eyes.

In that moment of blindness, a dagger lunged at him.

Crack!

The arm holding the dagger snapped.

The dagger landed in Xiao Yu’s hand.

In rapid succession, three stabs were delivered.

A horizontal stab to the neck, a jab to the abdomen, and a reverse thrust to the back of the head.

The final thrust remained incomplete.

Xiao Yu reached over and ruffled the man’s hair. “Move it out of my way,” he said.

Only then did he slowly open his eyes.

Ignoring the corpse at his feet, he looked inside.

Inside lay a basement reminiscent of a grand hall.

Within stood five individuals.

Four cold-faced men in suits and a middle-aged man exuding an exceptional aura.

In today’s world, few still possessed such ‘presence’ to impress Xiao Yu.

Disregarding the four suited men, he scrutinized the middle-aged man.

He appeared nearly forty, with a ruddy complexion and deep, probing eyes.

When those eyes met his, Xiao Yu paused in surprise.

He felt as if a giant dragon were staring down at an ant.

Are you trying to provoke me? Xiao Yu thought, his gaze hardening.

So, I’ve become nothing more than an ant in someone else’s eyes. Can you believe it?

“There’s an old saying in Dragon Kingdom: The wise adapt with the times,” the middle-aged man said coldly, his tone odd—as if he had something in his mouth.

He then leisurely produced a checkbook from his bosom and said, “Just take your people and leave. As for the numbers, fill them in as you please.”

Xiao Yu: …

He hesitated for a moment, glancing at his opponent and then around.

“Where’s the camera?”

Did I just walk onto a movie set?

Otherwise, what is with this unbelievably dramatic film vibe?

Shifting his gaze to the checkbook in the middle-aged man’s hand,

he wondered, “A cash check?”

This wasn’t a joke—such things truly existed.

That movie wasn’t lying.

If the other party were wealthy enough to cash it…

Xiao Yu glared coldly at the middle-aged man, “Is that how society works?”

The middle-aged man: ???

Clearly, he hadn’t fully grasped the profound language of the Dragon Kingdom.

He failed to understand the meaning behind Xiao Yu’s words.

Growing impatient, the middle-aged man spat in his native tongue, “Kill him.”

The four suited men immediately charged towards Xiao Yu.

As expected of these tough guys… Xiao Yu calmly observed them closing in.

Without any hesitation or forewarning, all four struck at once with leg extensions aimed at him.

Every move was deadly… Military Killing Fist!

Remembering how he had just beaten Little Xi Ba of Kimchi Land, Xiao Yu’s expression darkened.

Bang bang bang bang…

A fist smashed into his temple.

Another one struck his throat.

A swift kick hit his groin.

A leg chop slashed across his waist.

Rhino’s Defense… Standing his ground, Xiao Yu drew his Sidearm.

Bang bang bang bang…

All four assailants collapsed at once.

Gripping his gun, Xiao Yu approached the impeccably dressed middle-aged man.

“You… you can’t kill me. Do you know who I am…?”

The middle-aged man trembled, backing away in fear.

Bang!

A blood arrow shot from his thigh, leaving a bullet hole.

·· ·······‘Need flowers’········

“Ah!”

The middle-aged man shrieked in agony, falling to the ground while clutching his leg and rolling about, shouting in his native tongue, “No, you can’t…”

Bang! A large thigh crushed his chest.

“What are you barking about?”

Xiao Yu glared down at the middle-aged man.

“Stop…” the man cried out in his native tongue.

Bang! Another bullet pierced his other thigh.

“Ah!”

A final, agonized shriek escaped his lips as he struggled, unable to free himself from the weight on his chest.

“This is the Dragon Kingdom, so…”

Xiao Yu fixed his cold gaze on the middle-aged man. “What are you barking about?”

As he spoke, he stepped on the man’s chest with one foot and crushed his face with the other. Slowly, he crouched, grabbed the man’s hair, and hoisted him up.

Staring at the middle-aged man’s shattered, nose-less face, he asked, “What brings you to the Dragon Kingdom?”

…… … 0

“I… I’m here to perform organ transplants!”

The middle-aged man finally stopped his babbling and, in a strangely emphasized tone, spoke in his native language.

His aura had vanished.

Gone was the look of a dragon surveying an ant.

Now, his eyes brimmed with terror as he stared at Xiao Yu—like a demon.

No, not a demon.

But a man-eating beast, glaring hungrily.

The middle-aged man’s face turned ashen, beads of sweat accentuating his inner fear and panic.

Like prey beneath a monster’s claw, he trembled…

“Organ transplants?”

Xiao Yu narrowed his eyes.

“Yes, yes…” the middle-aged man nodded frantically.

“Do you know where those organs come from?”

Something flickered in Xiao Yu’s eyes.

“I know…”

The middle-aged man nodded again.

“Oh.”

Xiao Yu raised his head and pressed his Pistol against the middle-aged man’s forehead. “Next time you come to the Dragon Kingdom, remember not to bark.”

“No…”

Bang!

Slowly rising, Xiao Yu holstered his Sidearm.

Ignoring Wang Dong and the members of Team Two entering the basement, he walked out…

One must be adaptable and know what to sacrifice.

Blindly adhering to a principle is not the mark of the wise.

Some missed opportunities might haunt Xiao Yu as lingering regrets.

He couldn’t manage the affairs of the heavens, but he could handle what lay before him.

Two lives, unchanging!
