The Hunter's Path: Starting as a constable, ascend to the Old Ones.

"Are Ye Guohuan's gang inside?"

Led by the bloodhound, Lu Ming quickly followed the scent of blood to Po On Street in West Kowloon. He saw bright light shining through the closed window glass and could confirm that the shot member of Ye Guohuan's gang was inside.

The air was thick with the stench of blood; he could smell it even without the Bloodhounds pointing it out.

Lu Ming waved his hand, sending the Bloodhounds away. He flipped his hand, and an AK47 appeared in his hand. Then, his figure changed, and his whole body became dark and indistinct, like a drop of ink merging into the night.

Now, ordinary people passing by him would not even notice him standing here.

Skill--

Mimicry!

This is the latest skill that Lu Ming unlocked after driving the Bloodhounds to kill Zhu Tao. Like a chameleon, he can change the color and texture of his own clothes and other parts to imitate the surrounding environment and cleverly blend into it, achieving the effect of "invisibility".

Skill--

sneak!

Lu Ming activated two of his skills in one go, making himself almost invisible.

At this point, unless someone has exceptionally sharp eyesight and attention, they would likely notice his presence; otherwise, most people would simply ignore him.

Click!

Just after Lu Ming entered "invisibility", the door to the target room suddenly opened, and two men carrying large bags helped out a person who was almost dead.

Skill--

Hawkeye!

Upon seeing the two, Lu Ming instantly activated his "Eagle Eye" vision, raising his gaze to survey the surrounding area within a hundred meters.

The room was also within "Eagle Eye's" field of vision, and he could see everything clearly.

"Ye Guohuan...you really are here."

Lu Ming immediately recognized Ye Guohuan, who was holding an AK47 in the room. His features were almost identical to the sketch on TV. Coupled with the iconic AK47 and the gold and silver jewelry on the table, Lu Ming instantly confirmed that this ruthless bandit was Ye Guohuan, the kingpin of thieves.

Ta-da!

After confirming the target, the AK47 he was holding immediately started firing bullets like a roaring fire dragon. Ah Jin and Ah Zhong, who had just come out of the gate, couldn't react at all and could only subconsciously shout, "Brother Huan, there's an ambush!"

With the muffled thuds of bullets piercing flesh, bursts of blood erupted from the two men's bodies, their eyes widened, and they collapsed to the ground in resentment.

"Ah Jin, Ah Zhong!"

Ye Guohuan, who was a step too late to leave, heard the two shouts and instinctively ducked back behind the wall. He saw his two longtime underlings riddled with bullets by his most familiar AK47. His eyes widened in fury, and he raised his AK47, glaring at Huang Bailiang. "You bastard, you dared to ambush me! I'll kill you!" He mistakenly thought the people lying in ambush outside were hired gunmen by Huang Bailiang, who wanted to double-cross him.

"Brother Huan, I'm innocent! I didn't do it!"

Wong Pak-leung immediately protested, "Even if I were to double-cross someone, I wouldn't do it in my own backyard. If I attract the police, I'll be in deep trouble too."

Upon hearing this, Ye Guohuan's face darkened. "So, someone wants to take you and me down with them?"

"Damn it! If I find out which bastard did this, I'll make sure his whole family is wiped out!"

Huang Bailiang cursed and pulled out his Black Star pistol from the drawer. His three henchmen also drew their pistols in defense. Urged by Huang Bailiang, they nervously dragged the three men who had fallen at the gate back, mainly to retrieve the money they were carrying.

These people are different from Ye Guohuan's gang, who commits murder and arson. They usually just act tough on the streets, but when it comes to real fighting, they are more afraid than anyone else.

Ye Guohuan glanced at the group of people with disdain, gripped his AK47 tightly, crouched down and went to the window. He peered out to observe the outside, but all he could see was darkness and no one, let alone the gunmen who had just been firing.

"You...go out and take a look."

Ye Guohuan frowned, casually pointed his AK47 at one of Huang Bailiang's henchmen, and sent him out to scout the situation.

"I!?"

The underling whose name was called trembled, his face turned pale, and his hand holding the Black Star pistol shook involuntarily. "Brother Huan, I can't do it."

"Go quickly, don't force me to do it!"

Ye Guohuan's eyes turned cold, and he pointed his gun at the underling. If the underling dared to say "no" again, he would immediately pull the trigger and kill him.

Huang Bailiang kicked one of his underlings, cursing, "You bastard, stop talking nonsense and go out and check it out."

"I'm getting out, I'm getting out."

The underling who had been called out shakily moved to the doorway. On the ground were the three of Ye Guohuan's underlings, who were already dead beyond any doubt. Looking at the three men with their eyes wide open in death, he shuddered and already foresaw his own fate.

His legs trembled as he looked out into the darkness, swallowed hard, and carefully stepped over the corpses on the ground, pistol in hand. He slowly peeked out from the gate and found the street deserted.

"Boss, there's no one outside."

He carefully scanned his surroundings but found no one. Overjoyed, he immediately turned around to report the good news to Huang Bailiang.

Tap tap!

However, before he could finish speaking, a gunshot rang out. Several bloody holes appeared on his body in an instant. His eyes widened, his mouth opened, but he couldn't say anything before collapsing to the ground, dead.

"What is this thing!?"

Ye Guohuan had been watching the outside the whole time. When his underling who went out to check was hit by a bullet, his pupils suddenly contracted. He saw a shimmering, phantom-like light suddenly appear on the seemingly empty street outside. A figure emerged from the shadows, twisting and turning, and began firing his familiar AK47.

This scene, which defied common sense, left him in disbelief.

He was certain that he had clearly and repeatedly observed the location where the enemy fired, but he hadn't noticed anything just now. If the enemy hadn't fired, he wouldn't have noticed that there was a person standing in that position at all.

Huang Bailiang and his two remaining henchmen were so frightened that they cursed loudly and huddled in the room.

"Brother Huan, let's call the police!"

Huang Bailiang was a bit scared and suggested to Ye Guohuan that they call the police. At this point, he didn't care about going to jail; saving his life was the priority.

"Are you crazy? You want me to call the police... How am I supposed to face anyone after this?!"

Ye Guohuan cursed loudly. He was the king of thieves of the century, and he had a lot of pride in his heart. It would be better to let him die than to make him a laughing stock among his peers.

"Attack his mother! Fight him to the death!"

He suddenly stood up from the window, picked up his AK47, and looked at the spot he had just observed across the street. But as soon as he looked over, he felt a chill in his heart; the spot was now completely empty.

But in the short time it took him to turn around and curse, when he looked back, the other side had already moved to a new position in a flash.

Judging from this alone, the opponent is not a newbie, but a veteran who has been on the front line of gunfights for many years.

"Go to hell!"

Enraged, Ye Guohuan picked up his AK47 and opened fire. The windows shattered, and bullets flew across the empty street as if they were free. The surrounding residents were terrified and locked their doors and windows, calling the police on their landlines.

……

Ta-da!

The piercing sound of gunfire rang out in the empty street. Ye Guohuan, enraged, indiscriminately fired into the street, trying to force Lu Ming out.

Unfortunately, Lu Ming was no longer on the other side of the street. Instead, he was leaning against the wall where he was with Ye Guohuan and the others, his body blending into the environment like a dreamlike phantom, leaving no trace for outsiders to see.

Under his eagle eye, Ye Guohuan and his men's every move was under his control, and he knew exactly what Ye Guohuan was going to do.

Based on this, he naturally wouldn't stay in one place and wait for Ye Guohuan's bullets to come. Taking advantage of Ye Guohuan's distraction, he directly sneaked to a new location.

Backpack!

Lu Ming opened his backpack, inside which was a Remington shotgun and three remote-controlled cars equipped with remote-controlled bombs. He took out one of the remote-controlled cars and placed it on the ground.

He then grabbed the handle and pressed the forward button.

The remote-controlled car immediately sped forward under his control.

"You damn bastard, come out here if you dare!"

Ye Guohuan stopped firing his AK47, his eyes scanning the bullet-riddled walls across the street. He cursed at the street, having dominated Hong Kong for over a decade. He had never felt so frustrated as he did today.

From beginning to end, he never saw the enemy's face or even figured out their location; he could only hide in the room and passively take the beating.

The thought alone made him furious.

Huang Bailiang and his two henchmen hid in the room, not showing themselves at all.

"Don't be afraid. People outside heard the gunshots and called the police long ago. We just need to hold out until the police arrive and we'll be safe."

Huang Bailiang took a deep breath, knowing that the surrounding residents would call the police after hearing the gunshots, and that they could save their lives as long as the police arrived.

As for the imprisonment that awaits them, it is utterly insignificant in the face of life.

Besides, he's just a middleman, his crime isn't serious. He'll only be in Stanley for two or three years before he gets out, and he'll still be living a life of luxury then.

Ta-da!

"You damn bastard, do you think I, Ye Guohuan, am made of clay? Trying to double-cross me? You've got a screw loose!"

Ye Guohuan changed the magazine and fired again, unwilling to give up, trying to bolster his courage.

However, as he was firing, a remote-controlled car suddenly stumbled in through the gate and stopped precisely at Ye Guohuan's feet.

Hearing the sound, Ye Guohuan glanced at the remote-controlled car at his feet. Seeing the bomb taped to the car, his pupils contracted, and he muttered, "Fuck you!"

boom!

Under the "Eagle Eye" view, Lu Ming controlled the remote-controlled car to rush in front of Ye Guohuan. Once the car was in position, he immediately pressed the detonation button, and an explosion suddenly rang out in the room.

Ye Guohuan was killed instantly by the explosion. Huang Bailiang and the others were also affected by the metal fragments and nails from the bomb. The three of them were thrown backward and crashed to the ground with piercing screams.

Lu Ming, carrying an AK47, stepped into the filthy room. Huang Bailiang looked up and finally saw the face of their attacker. In the blink of an eye, he recognized Lu Ming and shouted, "It's you..."

Ta-da!

Without any hesitation, Lu Ming picked up his AK47 and opened fire, sending Huang Bailiang and his two henchmen to their doom.

Ta-da!

Immediately afterwards, he fired another burst of bullets at Ye Guohuan and the others who were already dead, to make sure they wouldn't come back to life.

At this point, Ye Guohuan, the kingpin of thieves, was dead beyond any doubt.

Lu Ming casually collected the remaining bullets from Ye Guohuan, and also took Huang Bailiang and his group's Black Star pistols and bullets, storing them in his backpack space.

The next moment, his gaze fell on the large bag full of banknotes and the huge safe.

……

"Ah Ming, where have you been!?"

When Lu Ming returned home, Serena asked him nervously, having sensed something was amiss when he asked her if she was good at money laundering.

Seeing Lu Ming return safely, I finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Don't worry, I'm perfectly safe."

Lu Ming smiled with a relaxed expression. He now possessed a full set of skills, and even facing the legendary thief Ye Guohuan, he could easily annihilate him.

"Salena, if I gave you ten million in dirty money, how long would it take you to clean yourself up?"

"Ten million?"

Serena was shocked. How could Lu Ming have gotten ten million in dirty money in just a short time?

Is this a bank robbery?

"Breaking news reports: A fierce gunfight broke out on Po On Street in West Kowloon, resulting in a horrific scene and eight deaths... According to the investigation by the West Kowloon Regional Crime Unit, it has been confirmed that four of the deceased were members of the Yip Kwok-fai gang who robbed five jewelry stores at gunpoint during the day..."

News of Ye Guohuan and his gang's annihilation quickly appeared on television news channels.

Serena looked at the three large bags of banknotes at her feet, and then at the news report on TV, her expression momentarily dazed.

Now, she finally understood where the ten million in illicit money Lu Ming mentioned came from. It turned out that they had double-crossed each other and killed Ye Guohuan, the kingpin of thieves.

"Ah Ming, this sum of money is too large. I can only wash it slowly. It may take one or two years to clean it completely."

Serena looked at the banknotes at her feet with some worry. She had indeed learned money laundering methods and channels from Zhu Tao, but money laundering was not like swiping a credit card; it was impossible to clean it up immediately.

Of course, the money Lu Ming brought back was in cash, which she could use to launder money since she owned a clothing store.

Serena gradually began to formulate a plan in her mind on how to turn that ten million into legitimate income.

"Take your time washing, I'm not in a hurry."

Lu Ming smiled indifferently. His real purpose was simply to eliminate Ye Guohuan and his gang to further his hunting empire. The ten million yuan was just a prize he picked up incidentally.

He doesn't lack money right now, so there's no need for him to rush to launder this large sum of money.

"Ah Ming, with such a large sum of money from you, I think my clothing store can open a branch very soon..."

Serena held Lu Ming's hand, her face full of joy. She had worked under Zhu Tao before and was not averse to receiving dirty money.

"Try to keep a low profile and avoid attracting the attention of the police."

Lu Ming reminded Salina of something.

"Ah Ming, don't worry, I'm very familiar with this kind of thing, I guarantee there won't be any problems."

Serena was full of confidence, as if she had entered her most familiar territory.
