Chapter 41: The White Triad

"It really is Hua Xin and the Green Snake."

On the tree trunk, Luo Wei could clearly see several figures a few hundred meters away: Hua Xin and Qing She, along with several other unfamiliar faces, who, judging from their attire, should also be from the Self-Strengthening Department.

A few wisps of green light dissipated from their bodies, indicating that the green snake had used its energy field to bring them here. No wonder they could travel so quickly on the rugged mountain path.

In the distance, Hua Xin and her group didn't rush forward. Instead, they hid in the woods, occasionally glancing at the direction of the Cross River with binoculars, seemingly planning to ambush members of the White Triad. Green Snake, who was following behind them, would occasionally talk to the people around her, but they would only say one sentence and then ignore her, obviously finding the girl too annoying.

The green snake was also self-aware. Seeing that no one was talking to it, it began to lie on the grass listlessly, rolled around a few times, and then began to admire the stars in the deep sky.

Hua Xin and the others kept a close eye on the Cross River.

"Poor White Triads."

Luo Wei chuckled. The White Triads were, after all, a well-known gang in Hong Kong, feared by many in China. They never expected that such a confidential mission would be ambushed by two groups, or rather, three groups: Luo Wei and Pei Xushan's group, and the Self-Strengthening Department.

"What are you doing? Waiting for someone? Can I leave now? It seems like there's nothing for me to do here."

The panda next to me asked cautiously.

"You can't leave yet. If you alert others, the number of giant pandas will decrease by one tomorrow. Stay quiet and don't move."

Lo Wei had no intention of letting the panda go. A panda that could speak a dialect was quite novel, and besides, letting the panda go might expose his location.

After all, Hua Xin possesses telepathy; her senses are more sensitive than those of other superhumans, and she may even be able to detect the emotional fluctuations of creatures near her, making her somewhat like a human radar.

Finally, there was movement on the other side of the cross river. A gust of wind blew, and then a thick cloud of white smoke rose from the woods, spreading over the river and creating an eerie atmosphere.

"I smell something new."

"The panda sniffed and said."

"Your dog nose is pretty sharp. The White Triads are here, but their entrance is quite fitting for their name."

Luo Wei stared at the thick white smoke and clearly saw several figures flash by. The white smoke was coming from a tall man who looked like a superhuman. In addition, there was a pretty woman with short white hair and dark skin, and two men dressed in black combat uniforms, all of whom had fierce glints in their eyes.

"Aren't you going down to arrest them?"

The panda was worried about not having a chance to escape and was thinking of getting rid of Luo Wei as soon as possible.

"Not in a hurry."

Luo Wei didn't rush down. He waited for the White Triad members to find the door knocker first. During this time, he also glanced at Hua Xin and the others from the Self-Strengthening Department. They were also waiting for their chance. Among them, Qing She's fair face was full of excitement, eager to make a move as soon as possible.

Soon, things turned out exactly as expected.

After briefly confirming that there was nothing amiss in the surroundings, the members of the White Triad arrived at a stone tablet by the river. It was a weathered stone, imbued with an ancient aura, and covered in moss due to the dampness.

The dark-skinned woman bent down and touched the stone tablet, then placed something on it. The stone tablet then emitted a golden light, which swirled and condensed into a vortex in a moment.

"I felt like I was in another world."

Luo Wei raised an eyebrow. His powerful senses allowed him to perceive that the vortex on the stone tablet led to another dimensional world.

The woman reached into the whirlpool and pulled out a pair of golden door knockers. These were door knockers commonly used in ancient Chinese city gates, similar to modern door handles, except that they were engraved with strange runes and radiated a divine light, reflecting on the woman's heroic face and illuminating the dark river, making the pure water sparkle.

"Got it, let's go."

The woman spoke with a strong Hong Kong accent, her slender, dark fingers gripping a pair of door knockers as she turned to her companion.

"Row."

The tall man spread his hands and released white smoke, puffs of which billowed from his palms. His ability was teleportation, but the wind-up was quite long, requiring him to create thick smoke to envelop his entire body before he could teleport.

"Yin Tong, stop right there!"

Suddenly, a flash of light appeared in the woods, followed by a bullet that grazed the back of the woman's hand, which was tightly gripping the door knocker. The intense pain forced her to let go.

"hiss!"

Yin Tong (the woman) covered her bleeding hand and looked up in the direction from which the bullets had come. Her pupils contracted immediately as she saw more bullets being fired from the woods, flashing with dazzling white light.

Seeing this, she didn't bother to pick up the door knocker from the ground. She quickly rolled to the side, hiding behind the stone tablet while shouting, "Watch out!"

"Oh shit!"

The tall man and the other two immediately rolled to the side.

Hot bullets whizzed past overhead, making a loud whooshing sound, and struck tree trunks not far away, instantly smashing the thick trees to pieces.

"damn it"

Yin Tong, who was lying behind the stone tablet, raised her head, smelled the pungent gunpowder in the air, and pulled out the gun from her waist. "Who the hell is it! Show yourself if you dare! If you dare mess with the White Triads, I'll kill you all!"

"We are the special task force of the Huaxia Self-Strengthening Corps. We now order you to lay down your weapons and surrender immediately, or we will take necessary measures!"

Hua Xin hid behind a big tree and responded through a megaphone, while her eyes kept glancing at the door knocker that had fallen to the ground. The door knocker was right between the two sides, but no one dared to pick it up.

"Self-Strengthening Ministry? I've never heard of it, get lost!"

Upon hearing that it was an official department, Yin Tong's expression suddenly turned serious, but he still refused to back down an inch.

"Yin Tong, listen up, you have ten seconds to think it over!"

Behind the big tree, Hua Xin peeked out to see the enemy's position, covered the megaphone, and turned to the green snake behind her, saying, "Little Green, sneak over there and get the door knocker."

"Aren't you going to fight? I thought you were going to fight."

Green Snake was rather uninterested, having thought there would be a fight, but remembering her promise to behave before coming, she nodded: "Okay, leave it to me."

Buzz

Just finished.

The green snake was enveloped in a green light, and then its body slowly became transparent from head to tail, eventually merging completely with the air and disappearing without a trace, leaving only a faint breathing sound.

"This is the key to the underworld?"

As the green snake spoke, she strode towards the door knocker. When her gaze fell upon it on the ground, a strange emotion flickered in her eyes. She wondered if the underworld was truly like the mythical place, where she could see her deceased relatives.

Thinking of this, a look of sadness appeared in her eyes.

Whoosh——

However, just as she approached...

A tall figure descended from the sky, landing steadily on the ground. A strong gust of wind swept up, stirring up dust and mist all around, and causing the trees to rustle. Then, the figure used his toes to lift two door knockers from the ground, drawing a perfect arc in the air before the knockers fell into his hand.

"Superman?!"

The green snake was hit hard, its body flickered a few times, and its energy field collapsed, losing its invisibility and revealing its true form.

But she recognized the tall figure in front of her; it was none other than Superman.

"Ah."

Luo Wei nodded calmly.

"No. What are you 'uh'ing about? Hurry up and give me the door knocker."

Green Snake reacted, pulled out the cylinder from her waist, pressed down hard on both ends and it popped out instantly, revealing a cyberpunk-style long stick in her hand.

"Superman, hand it over to the authorities. This thing is dangerous."

When Hua Xin saw Superman arrive, her right eyelid started twitching.

"You can't handle this, it's better to leave it with me."

Luo Wei said calmly.

"Hand it over!"

Whoosh——

Suddenly, the green snake opposite him frowned, stepped up from the ground, and swung his long staff with a flash of green light, drawing a green light and shadow in mid-air!

"Damn it, Yun Nan, make your move!"

Hiding behind the stone tablet, Yin Tong saw Superman descending from the sky and his expression immediately became extremely solemn. Before coming here, he had been specifically warned not to provoke Superman.

To my surprise, he still came!

"Yin Tong, let me do it."

A voice came from inside Yin Tong's earphones. It didn't come from Yun Nan, nor from anyone else present.

"Miss He? Weren't you not coming?"

While Yin Tong was surprised, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Let me make this clear beforehand: I work for myself, not for the White Triads. Also, I will not do anything for Miss Bai!"

Meanwhile, in the woods far away.

A tall, slender figure stood there, wearing goggles on her forehead. Her skin had a healthy tan, indicating she wasn't of mixed race, but rather the result of prolonged exercise under the scorching sun. Looking down, the woman had a pair of slender, shapely legs, and the athletic pants that clung tightly to her calves revealed well-defined muscle lines.

"Keep Superman waiting, I'm coming!"

Ms. He smiled broadly, revealing her pearly white teeth. Her accent was slightly American. Then, she used one hand to pull down the windproof glasses on her forehead.

Whoosh——

The next second, she flashed, the branches around her snapped, and she turned into a gust of wind, bringing with her a thick cloud of dust.

Looking into the distance, Yin Tong saw that Superman had already broken the Green Snake's staff with one hand and sent the little girl flying several meters with a punch. Seeing this, she was afraid that the girl would fly away, so she immediately shouted, "Yun Nan, stop Superman and don't let him go!"

"it is good!"

"what--"

The tall, imposing man's eyes shone with white light, veins bulged on his arms, and his body seemed to swell several sizes. He then leaped into the air, emitting puffs of white smoke, and charged towards Superman like a ferocious beast.

"Heh, I'm not in a hurry to leave. You haven't told me where the underworld is yet."

Hearing the noise, Luo Wei turned to look at Yun Nan and chuckled.

"How dare you underestimate me! Kid, when your grandpa was out in the game, you were still suckling! Fuck!"

Yun Nan roared angrily.

Seeing the menacing Yun Nan, Luo Wei remained calm and composed, standing still without the slightest panic.
