I became the King of Ryukyu

Zheng Yi wasn't particularly alarmed by his underwater escape.

Back when he was scouting the terrain, he had arranged for the fish and shrimp scout squad under Xiaobailong's command to thoroughly investigate all routes of the entire spiritual spring, the secret passage, and the Anlichuan tributary. Every tree, ditch, and canal was marked, so the enemy's escape route was completely within the monitoring range.

Zheng Yi rushed to the spring and looked down at the water.

The once clear spring water had completely changed color, and a clear, yellowish-brown trail stretched straight into the distance, creating a striking visual impact.

Zheng Yi paused for two seconds, then decisively stopped in his tracks.

Forget it, the pursuit plan is canceled.

Even if he awakened his religious fanaticism and war mania, he wouldn't have the courage to jump into this highly toxic, murky, limited stream to chase after someone; it was truly a physiological deterrent.

Moreover, Master Bai Ling comes with a crocodile-like underwater swimming buff, making the water his domain. Chasing him is extremely inefficient and just asking for trouble.

However, his not pursuing the matter doesn't mean no one can deal with him.

Underwater at Anlichuan.

Bai Ling Shangren, who had successfully escaped into the river, thought he had finally escaped and could catch his breath for a while. However, he never expected that the real deadly ambush was already waiting for him underwater.

Suddenly, the water in the shadows surged, and a meter-long, dark blue figure darted out!

It is the little white dragon that has completed its level advancement and greatly enhanced its physique.

Its original form is a mutated electric eel. After upgrading and metamorphosis, and by stimulating hormone secretion through electric shocks to the hypothalamus, its current size is close to that of a sub-adult individual. Its voltage is enough to electrocute Amazonian black caimans and adult humans!

Sizzle—!

A terrifying blue electric current instantly filled the entire body of water, and the violent high-voltage current spread along the river water in an instant, precisely locking Bai Ling Shangren in the water!

Even if his crocodile cells have strong resistance and his physical body has incredible toughness, he still can't withstand this biological-level high-voltage electric bombardment.

The body, already weakened by the poison pills and the chain of foul debuffs, was struck by lightning again. The flesh beneath the scales instantly became numb and spasmed, the internal organs trembled violently, and the body's vital energy completely collapsed.

He was already quite old, and forcibly relying on drugs to maintain his genetically modified body was already a sign of his impending doom.

With two consecutive rounds of extreme critical hits stacked together, he couldn't hold on any longer.

In an instant, the entire Anlichuan River became completely turbid, the yellowish water mixed with lingering toxins and filth, turning into a harmful, toxic yellow pool.

The small fish and shrimp scouts responsible for gathering intelligence in the water couldn't withstand the combined damage from the widespread electric shock and poisonous water, and they all floated up belly up.

Although the little white dragon was not very intelligent, it still had the instinct to immediately avoid such terrifying poisonous water.

Of course, Zheng Yi could also entrust it to someone else and forcibly pursue it, but entrusting it to someone else involves sharing all five senses, so whoever wants to go can go!

Bai Ling Shangren, who was severely injured and nearly dead underwater, finally escaped the pursuit.

With his last ounce of strength, he shakily pulled out a professional waterproof and encrypted communicator from his pocket, pressed the contact button, and called the organization's backup.

Supporting her broken body, Bai Ling Shangren barely swam with the current to the designated rendezvous point. She had just emerged from the water and climbed onto the riverbank, not even having a chance to catch her breath—

boom! !

A cold gunshot suddenly rang out.

Precise, ruthless, and without warning.

A bullet pierced his heart.

Warm blood instantly stained the mud on the shore. Bai Ling Shangren froze, looking down in disbelief at the bloody hole in his chest. He then looked up with difficulty at the person in front of him who was holding a gun, his eyes filled with incomprehension and overwhelming resentment.

"Why...why...is there still...a chance of my plan succeeding...?"

"Your plan? Hahaha!"

The man in black who was there to meet them laughed loudly, but his eyes were as cold as if he were dealing with a piece of trash, and his voice was icy and chilling: "Bai Ling, do you really think the organization will carry out your plan? Utterly foolish!"

"The organization never intended to be an enemy of a behemoth like the U.S. military stationed in Japan."

"You're just hot-blooded and obsessed, really thinking you can use the funds, weapons, and explosives left behind by the Red Army to stage an attack and force the Americans to concede? How naive! The Red Army's methods are outdated!"

"The reason we kept you around and cooperated with all your plans was simply to use you as a pawn to see if we could get our hands on those supplies."

"Now you are severely injured, your genetically modified body has completely collapsed, and you are completely useless. It is a miracle that you have survived human experiments at your age. Now that you are crippled to this extent, there is no need for any treatment."

"Go to hell in peace."

Every word is piercing, every sentence is chilling.

All those years of obsession, the infamy, the trials of evil, and the humiliation and hardship, in the end, were nothing but a joke played by others.

He risked everything for Ryukyu, only to be betrayed and abandoned by the organization in the end.

Overwhelmed by endless resentment, despair, and grievance, Master Bai Ling's eyes widened, filled with injustice and absurdity, before she collapsed onto the shore, lifeless.

The man in black fired three more shots into the head of the corpse.

These deified beings are still very resilient, and he doesn't want anything to go wrong.

After confirming that Master Bai Ling was completely dead, the man in black said to the person beside him, "I didn't expect that Xuan Hai would actually be killed by this old bald monk. It seems I should have listened to your advice and directly promoted Xuan Hai to a full-fledged position. That's the kind of patriot the organization needs!"

"Cough cough cough." A middle-aged monk slowly emerged from the shadows of the trees.

It was the "Monk Shouzhen" who was still wearing his monk's robes, his body covered in rainwater and bloodstains.

The monk Shouzhen was, of course, Zheng Yi in disguise.

On the way, he studied it briefly and discovered that the communicator he had taken from the monk Xuanhai actually had a contact channel with the criminal organization.

However, the "Nokia" belonging to the monk Shouzhen was connected with another organization.

Based on his American passport, Zheng Yi had reason to believe that this shabby organization, like the winery, might have been infiltrated by various groups and riddled with holes.

This Morimaru is likely an FBI agent, but he's far inferior to Shuichi Akai, getting his neck broken by a single Soviet-style sit-down from that chubby guy.

In short, the more this organization looked, the more it resembled a winery, and the Xuanhai faction was much stronger than Zheng Yi had previously thought.

Xuan Hai himself might be a master, whose strength is no less than that of Bai Ling Shangren before his deification.

However, he was unlucky. He ate Zheng Yi's "clothes-exploding dish," and no matter how strong he was, he couldn't show his strength at all, and ended up being slowly worn down to death.

Now that the entire Lingquan Temple has been destroyed, the man in black must quickly clean up the mess and then return to the capital to report back.

"Monk Shouzhen" became the organization's highest-ranking, and even only, official member in the Ryukyu region. Moreover, he was of impeccable character and a confidant of the Xuanhai faction.

The man in black gave his instructions naturally, then turned and quickly headed up the mountain.

After waiting for half an hour, flames shot into the sky from Lingquan Temple.

[You can handle the body yourself at Lingquan, and stay in touch afterwards.]

On the organization's internal communicator, a man in black codenamed "The Cleaner" sent this message.
