Hence, he felt incredulous and furious when his nephew openly rebelled against him!
He thought that the young chap had gone mad to be rebelling against him over an indecent woman!
In the meantime, the manpower from the army's special forces soon covered at the highway entrance; all were armed to the teeth. Mu Linfeng gave an order to bring back his brother alive. No matter who the opponents were, they must pay a little price when necessary!
Under his command, the mercenaries equipped themselves with plenty of munitions in preparation for a likely crossfire as they rushed to the scene!
Youyou leisurely sat in the car and made a call to Gong Jie, completely unaware of the elder's work and his deployment of additional army personnel. The boy's uncle sent over additional manpower once he learned about the deadlock.
Thus, three different groups were all on their way to the same coordinates.
Trouble was brewing in real time on the seemingly calm capital outskirts with the hidden rivalry!
On another side, Vermilion Bird decided not to show mercy when the other party still refused to hand over Mu Lianjue. She expressionlessly turned around and pulled out her wireless communication device. "The other party refused to give us our target; prepare to open fire!"
Deputy Zhou was alarmed.
Other than those currently present, were there more people lying in ambush?
He warily surveyed his surroundings, inevitably feeling jittery and helpless by the opponents' superiority in number.
Just as the female mercenary commander's men moved to open fire, Mu Linfeng's men arrived at the scene.
The faint blaring sound of the police car's siren caught her attention at once. Alertly, she reached for the binoculars at her waist and nimbly climbed up the roof of her car to observe the situation. Along with the dozen police cars paving the way toward them at a fast speed from a few hundred meters away were also a dozen military vehicles.
The scene of the flashing red and blue lights, coupled with the dozen vehicles speeding on the road, seemed spectacular when seen from a distance.
Youyou turned to look in the direction of the blaring sirens when his keen auditory picked them up. It put him on high alert.
"Vermilion Bird, what's the situation out there?"
"Something seems to be on."
Jumping down from the car roof, she reported, "There are a dozen military vehicles coming our way. I suspect that they're from the army's special forces."
"Mu Linfeng's men?"
The boy could only come up with this possibility.
"Possibly!"
After all, other than that man, no one else had such authority to deploy so many soldiers from the capital's army!
Soon after, several mercenaries alighted from their vehicles with guns raised. They were different from those at the army base in that they wore the cold-blooded aggressiveness of state machines on their hard faces.
"Tsk."
The boy suddenly knitted his brows and smacked his lips together.
His subordinate reassured, "Don't worry, little sir. I'm around."
"It's not that," he calmly refuted.
"Then…"
"I think I drank too much cola. The roots of my teeth are slightly numb now," blandly explained the boy.
Her face darkened as she broke out in a cold sweat.
With her assuming that the little guy was scared and nervous, his unexpected reply truly left her dumbfounded.
