“Hey hey hey! Don’t be reckless!” Upon seeing the group rush towards Cui Lizhu, Li Zhanbing and Xu Hai stepped in front of her. Zhang Jingfeng had picked up a chair. However, the Special Services team could not care less and they continued to advance. In that instant, the atmosphere in the office became hostile and a fight was about to break out at any minute.

“Fuhahaha!” Zhao Yu suddenly burst out in maniacal laughter. His laughter boomed like thunder and made everyone stop what they were doing. “Xiao... what was it again?” Zhao Yu said to Xiao Hang, grinning. “Do you have like, zero creativity? Do you feel like taking Cui Lizhu away right in front of my eyes makes you some kind of bigshot? Let me tell you something. I take care of Xiao Cui as if she was my own blood! If anyone dares to touch her, they’ll have to go through me, Zhao Yu, first!”

“Hmph!” Xiao Hang sneered. “Don’t think so highly of yourself! Everyone else thinks you’re some genius, but to me you’re nothing! Let me tell you, I’m here on official business, and since you guys are not cooperating with me, I have no choice but to use my fists instead of my words!”

“Well, would you look at that! Revealing your true nature in the face of adversity!” Zhao Yu laughed and clapped his hands. “And to think you still dare to say you’re not threatening us. Do you think I’m stupid? You took the initiative to come here, not for our Xiao Cui, but for us! Since you need our help, why not ask nicely instead of being so rude?”

“Haha! What a joke!” Xiao Hang laughed. “We’re with the Special Service, why should we beg you? I’ve already told you that these are orders and you have to cooperate with our investigation. This case is a matter of national interest and concerns our country’s secrets. If you defy my orders, then prepare to bear the consequences!”

“Nonsense!” Li Jing snarled angrily. “Cui Lizhu is a special investigator from the Criminal Department. If you want to arrest her, show me a warrant of some sort! You can’t just walk in here and do as you please!”

“A warrant?” Xiao Hang stared blankly. “Is this your first day of work? Don’t you know that we, as Special Services, are above this? Fine, you want documents? I will send them to your phone in the next five minutes!”

“You...” Li Jing said angrily. “This is as good as bullying!”

“Leader Li, don’t be angry!” Zhao Yu advised. “They’re just using Xiao Cui as a cover. They really just want to intimidate us!”

“You want us to investigate? Then let’s do things according to standard protocol!” Li Jing said angrily. “Why do you have to be so impulsive? When did we offend you?”

“Alright then,” Xiao Hang said. His eyes widened as he had listened to Li Jing speak. “Since it’s come to this, I will cut to the chase. As long as you give us all the information you have regarding the treasure and Cui Lizhu, we will no longer interfere with your team. You guys can even go to Tian Qing Temple for a holiday if you wanted to for all we care! Haha!” Xiao Hang’s subordinates burst out in laughter upon hearing this.

“You! Bully!” Li Jing scolded. “Fine! I’ll go and reason with the relevant superiors. You will regret whatever you’re doing now. Don’t think that just because you’re in a position of authority you can do whatever you want! Hmph!”

“Ha! That’s great!” Xiao Hang signaled to his subordinates again. “Let’s see then, who will be the one to feel regret at the end of this. Come, catch her! See who dares to stop us.” Xiao Hang’s subordinates began their advance towards Cui Lizhu again at his orders.

“You dare to continue?!” Zhang Jingfeng picked up the chair once again and prepared to fight. However, he had barely finished his sentence when one of the Special Service members knocked him onto the floor.

“You a**holes! Ah!” Xu Hai snarled and ran forward to tackle one of the Special Service members. Surprisingly, the man had exemplary reflex and in the blink of an eye, he grabbed and threw Xu Hai, sending him crashing into the table.

D*mn it! Zhao Yu swore in his mind. Zhao Yu didn’t think the other party would have actually started a fight. He was now eager to find a chance to use violence! Since the other parties had crossed the line first, he no longer had any reason to remain silent and launched into a flying kick, hitting a Secret Service member in the back. Going by the laws of physics, even though Zhao Yu had used only 70% of his strength, the person who had received the blow should at least fall to the ground even if he wasn’t sent flying. But to Zhao Yu’s horror, after his kick connected, the man’s body just shook a little. He stood still like an iron column, not falling. The Secret Service member turned to look at Zhao Yu, his eyes gleaming with malicious intent.

F*ck! Zhao Yu thought. This time, he couldn’t help but be shocked. Was this person even human? Thinking back, other than the international agents that he had encountered on Lan Ding Island, Zhao Yu had never seen such a strong person. He realized now that these Special Service members were no ordinary people. Looking at Xiao Hang’s subordinates, even though they were not exceptionally big and muscular or tall and mighty, each of them presented a fierce, warrior-like presence. Clearly, they were all skilled special agents!

“Hahaha!” It was Xiao Hang’s turn to laugh. “Leader Zhao, are you surprised? All I did was praise you a bit earlier, did that go to your head? Did you think that you’d be considered a world champion too just because you beat one? What you don’t know is that all of us in Special Services can beat the sh*t out of people like Sangrov as well! How about it, Detective Zhao? Do you still fancy a fight?”

Oh? Zhao Yu felt a peculiar feeling after hearing Xiao Hang’s words. The arrogance of these people! Were they here just to provoke him? But Zhao Yu was no mortal either. After thinking it over briefly, he said to Xiao Hang, “Alright! Since you want to taste my fist, let’s establish some ground rules. I’ll play along!”

“Ha! You’re indeed the crazy detective the legends speak of,” Xiao Hang said, a glimpse of evil in his eyes. “Since this is what you wanted, you better not regret it!”

“A true gentleman keeps his promise!” Zhao Yu vowed, standing upright. “One by one, or all together, it’s up to you!”

“Hahaha!” Xiao Hang threw his head back and laughed. “What big talk, so arrogant! Zhao Yu, do you really believe you’re invincible? Today, I will introduce you to someone greater than you! How about this? I will challenge you personally. We can have a battle fit for the heavens!”

“You?!” Zhao Yu looked at the leader of the Special Services, who was half a head shorter than him. “What do you mean a battle fit for the heavens? Did you do any research before coming here? Look at those who came before me, what happened to them in the end?”

“Ha!” Xiao Hang smiled. His men laughed along with him. “Zhao Yu, since you’re looking for death, don’t blame me for going all out! How about this, if you can win against me, we’ll forget everything that happened today. But if you lose, you have to promise me two things. Promise me you’ll give me all the information you have and you’ll let me take Cui Lizhu away!”

“Ha! Keep dreaming!” Zhao Yu retorted without hesitating. “Do you take me as a fool? Everything you offered only benefits you. If you lose there’s no big loss for you, that won’t do! How about if I win, you give me all the information you have, and you bow before my comrade Xiao Cui. How about that?”

“Fair enough!” Xiao Hang responded. Who would have thought that in the face of Zhao Yu’s proposal, Xiao Hang would agree to the terms on the spot? “As you wish. Today I will make you pay for your arrogance!”
