Chapter 867 The Real Battle to the Death

Listening to Gu Yuan's pitiful ramblings, Xuan Chu felt his head buzzing. He had really had enough!

He immediately interrupted Gu Yuan before he could finish speaking.

"It'll be ready soon, don't rush it!"

Do you really think he's just not eager to hurry? He's not like those people who dawdle.

Gu Yuan had originally intended to appeal to Xuan Chu's emotions, but upon hearing Xuan Chu's words, he immediately returned to a serious demeanor.

"Then I'll be waiting for you."

After hanging up the phone, Gu Yuan looked towards the direction of the Death Mountain, his eyes filled with obvious worry.

"I wonder how the boss and the others are doing."

Despite his deep worry, Gu Yuan remained calm and acted on his feelings.

This is enough to show that Xie Xuzhi's ability to judge people is truly first-rate.

the other side.

Those spies in black robes were eager to reach their destination as quickly as possible.

These people are also known as "dead stakes," and they only have two fates: either they will remain hidden in the shadows for the rest of their lives, or...

Either you have to risk your life to complete the mission on the day it's activated, or you can't stop unless you die.

The driver, seeing that they were about to reach the road where they were most likely to be ambushed, immediately warned the people in the car.

"Everyone be on guard; there might be trouble ahead on that stretch of road!"

Upon hearing this, everyone else on the bus took out their magical artifacts and looked warily at the road outside the windows.

Their attitude was quite cooperative, completely unlike the typical reaction most people would have when reminded by their companions.

Everyone waited patiently and calmly for what was to come.

To be honest, this kind of stubbornness is not something that ordinary people can do. Just the personality aspect alone can eliminate a large number of people.

Wan Qiyu's men patiently stared at the direction of Wuhuang Mountain with binoculars.

The estimated time was about right. Holding the walkie-talkie, he said, "Everyone, get ready for battle! Those bastards are about to enter our attack range!"

There was a loud "bang" sound.

The black-robed man's vehicle was attacked by the explosive tags that had been laid in ambush, instantly losing its ability to move forward.

The people on the bus were not surprised; in fact, they had been prepared for it long in advance.

However, the ruthlessness of the other party's methods still exceeded their expectations.

Based on their past experience, the Special Administration Bureau wouldn't be so ruthless in their actions; they would come at you with a deadly move right away.

Just now, if they hadn't been holding magical artifacts for defense, their flesh and blood bodies would now be riddled with dents, just like this steel car box.

"Could these people be secret weapons secretly cultivated by Director Xie?"

"Hmph~ What hypocrites! They used to accuse us of being ruthless, but they're just as ruthless as we are!"

"Be careful, everyone. That explosive rune array was just an appetizer. The next attack will probably be no weaker than that one."

Even though the car was smashed to pieces, the people inside had no intention of getting off.

Wan Qiyu's men remained in ambush, not jumping out at all.

Both sides are people with very stable emotions, which is why they were able to hide for so long without being discovered.

There was a tense standoff at this moment, with both sides clearly being extremely cautious. Neither would easily step forward and become the other's target until the most crucial moment.

What they are facing now is not a competition, but a real battle for survival.

This standoff continued until nightfall, when the stars began to appear in the sky.

Both sides showed no signs of slackening; on the contrary, their spirits grew even stronger.

Clearly, the crucial moment they've been waiting for has arrived.

Wan Qiyu's men glanced at the people behind them and said, "They definitely won't guess our identities. Even if they are on guard, they will only think that we are people trained by the Special Administration Bureau."

Let's take advantage of their misjudgment and catch them off guard. Then, everyone can settle scores and avenge their grievances, no matter the cost!

The hatred between them can be traced back a hundred years, and there are few opportunities to openly and fairly kill one's enemy.

Not to mention, they are now guarding the last line of defense for the young lady, and absolutely cannot let these people cause trouble!
"Don't worry, boss, we're definitely not going to hold you back. I have a blood feud with those bastards; my grandfather died at their hands!"

The people who are here are not here by any means required; they all came here vying for it.

Revenge is one thing, but this is also a good opportunity to make a name for oneself.

Whether they were seconded to Director Gu of the Special Administration Bureau or for the sake of the young lady, as long as they live, their future will be bright and promising.

At that moment, everyone present looked across at the other side with eyes that were as green as a pack of wolves eyeing their prey.

They were just waiting for their boss's order to charge out.

The sound of a "click" came from the scrap metal car across the street.

The time has come.

"rush!"

The two sides immediately engaged in a chaotic battle. Wan Qiyu's side, having a clear advantage in information, temporarily gained the upper hand.

They used to be very frugal, but now they were throwing all their magical artifacts and talismans at each other without restraint.

The sounds of the fight terrified the snakes, insects, and rodents in the vicinity.

The rat that was gnawing on the ground immediately pretended to be dead, its body stiffening as it fell to the ground. Anyone who saw it would think that the rat was dead.

Not far away, the snake, which was watching the mouse's movements, abandoned its plan to devour the mouse after it had had its fill.

It disappeared directly into the deeper grass, wishing it had never been there at all.

The men in black robes were caught off guard several times and were completely outmatched.

"You are not from the Special Administration Bureau!"

The Special Administration Bureau wouldn't know where their weaknesses lie, nor would they be so insidious as to use evil magic that could trigger the death seal on them.

The leader was kneeling on one knee in a disheveled state, blood streaming uncontrollably from the corner of his mouth.

Feeling the death seal trembling within his body, the man's eyes flashed with an uncontrollable ruthlessness.

"He's talking a lot when he's about to die!"

Wan Qiyu's men would not lower their guard or gloatly reveal their identities and trump cards just because the other party was about to die.

They can use techniques that affect the death seals on these people, but many of their predecessors who were lurking in the shadows paid the price with their lives for this.

He has little interest in breaking the mechanic that villains die from talking too much.

Moreover, they only gained the upper hand because the other party was unfamiliar with their background.
