"Everyone, welcome to the Death Squad headquarters!"
"As the first guests of the Death Squad, I think it's best if you don't rush off."
"We're very hospitable, and we'll definitely do our best to make sure you're satisfied..."
Ye Cangtian stood on the deck of the cruise ship, looking at the increasingly frightened assassins before him, his smile bright as he spoke.
"Ye Cangtian, why are you on the yacht!"
Cardinal Red couldn't stand Ye Cangtian's nonsense!
"That's a good question."
Ye Cangtian smiled slightly and continued, "Actually, I wanted to board the ship and deal with you directly, but you acted first. However, it's not too late; I've rushed back."
As he spoke, Ye Cangtian leaped forward, landing directly on the shore.
Instantly, the surrounding assassins retreated several steps in panic.
Ye Cangtian ignored the surrounding assassins; his gaze remained locked on the two Cardinals.
Seeing that they had nothing to say, he opened his mouth teasingly, "Hey, do you have any other questions? If not, how about answering a few for me?"
"Ye Cangtian, what right do you have to ask me questions?"
One Cardinal glared fiercely at Ye Cangtian and continued, "Don't think you've won just yet. If you know what's good for you, get out of the way now!"
"Heh, it seems you have quite a lot of confidence!"
"Come, come, let me know where your confidence comes from!"
Hearing the other party's words, Ye Cangtian's face showed profound disdain.
He was genuinely puzzled. The Church of Light knew he wouldn't ignore the Death Squad, yet they only sent three Cardinals.
Even if they didn't know Rose had broken through to the Earth realm, they should have known that three Cardinals alone couldn't deal with him.
Therefore, he had been wondering if the other party had any backup plans.
"Hmph! What if I tell you!"
The Cardinal snorted coldly and continued, "To tell you the truth, your home is currently under attack. If nothing unexpected happens, those people will soon fall into the hands of the Church of Light."
With that, Cardinal Red let out a cold laugh and continued, "If you don't want your family to suffer, you'd better let us leave!" m..oΓg
"No! It's not about letting us leave, it's about surrendering!"
Another Cardinal quickly corrected his companion's statement.
If Ye Cangtian appeared here, then the operation in China would not fail.
Since that was the case, they had captured Ye Cangtian's weakness. Why not use it to force Ye Cangtian to surrender?
This way, they could complete their mission and receive generous rewards. Wasn't that great?
"Heh heh."
Hearing this, Ye Cangtian immediately laughed.
He had expected the other party to have some backup plan, but it turned out they were using the operation in China as their trump card for survival. It was truly laughable.
"What, what are you laughing at!"
Seeing Ye Cangtian's expression, the Cardinal was stunned for a moment, and then his face turned red.
The other party's smile was clearly filled with mockery, which made them furious and also gave rise to a sense of foreboding.
"I'm just laughing at how good you are at fabricating lies; it's really hard for me to see through the flaws."
"Haven't you considered how easy it is to move against my home?"
"You only sent three Cardinals here, so what did you use to carry out the operation in China?"
Ye Cangtian glanced at the three of them with contempt.
He naturally knew that everything they said was true. The reason he said this was to test their movements.
Because he was unsure if Ghost Dance, Nancy, and even Blue Moon combined could withstand their attack.
"Hahaha, a frog in a well!"
"What do you think the Church of Light is? The Church of Light's foundation is beyond your imagination!"
"It's not a problem to tell you. The group that went to China was also led by three Cardinals, and they are more than enough to deal with a single Ghost Dance!"
Cardinal Red's face showed contempt as he laughed heartily.
Since Ye Cangtian couldn't possibly rush back, even if he notified China, Ghost Dance and the others wouldn't be able to escape the clutches of the Church of Light.
Three Cardinals?
Hearing this, Ye Cangtian breathed a sigh of relief.
If it were only three Cardinals, then the situation in China should be fine.
Perhaps Nancy and Ghost Dance alone would be enough, without Blue Moon even needing to make a move.
"How is it?"
"Are you feeling nervous now? Don't worry, it's all small problems."
"As long as you surrender and take this Spirit Sealing Pill, I can put in a good word with China and let those women suffer less. Perhaps you'll even get to see them before you die..."
Seeing Ye Cangtian's silence, the two Cardinals showed triumphant smiles.
In their opinion, although Ye Cangtian appeared calm on the surface, his heart must have been turbulent.
However, he was helpless against this situation and could only let them manipulate him.
Thus, as one Cardinal spoke, he took out another Spirit Sealing Pill from his Qiankun bag and threw it directly onto the sandy beach at Ye Cangtian's feet.
"What a waste, such a good pill, why throw it on the ground?"
Ye Cangtian glanced at the Cardinal, hooked his toe, and flicked the Spirit Sealing Pill covered in sand upwards, catching it in his palm.
At the same time, Rose on the other side showed a faint smile.
From her understanding of Ye Cangtian, the next thing Ye Cangtian would do was to give them a taste of their own medicine.
As expected, in the next moment, Ye Cangtian flashed and appeared directly in front of the Cardinal who had stepped forward, reaching out his hand.
"You..."
The Cardinal was startled.
His mind was still replaying the scene of Ye Cangtian taking the pill, and he was truly unprepared for the sudden turn of events.
Before he could react, Ye Cangtian had already grabbed him by the neck.
"What do you want..."
With his life in Ye Cangtian's hands, the Cardinal, shocked, immediately questioned him.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, Ye Cangtian stuffed the sand-covered Spirit Sealing Pill into his mouth.
He wanted to take out the antidote to save himself, but he didn't dare to move rashly.
Seeing this, the other Cardinal's pupils contracted sharply and he quickly said, "Ye Cangtian, are you crazy! Do you think capturing us will save your fiancée and the others?
Let me tell you, that's impossible! No matter who between us falls into your hands, the other side will not compromise!"
He wasn't lying. Before the operation, the personnel on both sides had fully deduced the plan.
Ye Cangtian was alone, and he had only two choices: either ignore the Death Squad at home, or be here, which would leave his home vulnerable.
Therefore, both sides had already planned everything in advance.
"Heh heh, you're mistaken."
A voice came, and Ye Cangtian smiled slightly, continuing, "I didn't say I wanted to use you as a hostage. I just wanted to teach him something before he died: don't waste things!"
What? Before he died?
Hearing Ye Cangtian's voice, the Cardinal whose life was in his hands was stunned for a moment, and then his face instantly turned pale.
However, before he could speak, a great force came from his neck, followed by a crisp crack, the sound of bones breaking, and then another.
He instantly lost all consciousness.
Bang!
Looking at his companion's corpse being thrown onto the beach, the remaining Cardinal was stunned on the spot.
He couldn't understand!
According to the information, wasn't Tang Xinwan Ye Cangtian's absolute weakness?
But why did Ye Cangtian kill him without regard for Tang Xinwan's situation?
Was the information incorrect?
Seeing one Cardinal instantly killed, many of the surrounding assassins realized something was wrong and began to retreat.
Those who ran faster had already dived into the sea.
For these people, Rose and the Shadowless Sword on the ship took action, but because of their large numbers and dispersed formation, their effectiveness was not high.
"Rose, Shadowless Sword, come back. It's not that troublesome."
A faint voice came, and Rose and Shadowless Sword immediately stopped their pursuit and returned to Ye Cangtian's side.
Although they wished they could exterminate these people, they still executed Ye Cangtian's words without reservation.
