I traverse America, using holy light to quell American terror!

"Pooh!"

Li Yuan spat and wiped the blood off his face.

He forcefully pushed the monster's corpse aside, then looked into the distance.

The people who had escaped first were seen ganging up on a man.

Li Yuan squinted at them for a while, then asked the crowd with a puzzled look:

"Who is that?"

Juno kicked the other person hard in the groin and shouted:

"I don't know either, but he killed Dan with a shovel!"

"A shovel? Didn't I throw that old man down there...?"

Li Yuan walked over with a hint of doubt.

They found Dan lying on the ground, no longer breathing.

Dan's two students, Cathy and Craig,

They were violently beating the young man who was curled up on the ground.

"Wait a minute, let me ask him."

Li Yuan stopped the violence, then squatted down and asked:

Why did you kill him?

"Hehe..."

Although the young man's expression was pained, he shouted hoarsely:

"The gods will punish you; you will all die!"

Li Yuan squinted and stared at him for a while.

Suddenly, I noticed that the pendant hanging around the young man's neck was rather unusual.

He reached out and grabbed it.

"ah--!"

The necklace was very sturdy, and the pain in his neck made the young man tremble slightly.

He roared, his bloodshot eyes wide:

"Don't touch the sacred object! You filthy monkey!"

Li Yuan ignored his insults.

Instead, he carefully examined the pendant in his hand.

At first glance, the pendant looks like the head of a stag with huge antlers.

Upon closer inspection, the male deer's teeth resemble those of a shark, and its antlers are covered with vines.

"Is this a bit like the legendary Wendigo?"

Looking at the pendant, Li Yuan couldn't help but recall the prompt that appeared when he killed the monster.

The term Wendigo lineage was mentioned above.

Li Yuan put away the necklace and asked the young man in a low voice:

"What's your relationship with the old man who guards the mine?"

"I'm your father! I won't say anything, you'll all die!"

The young man did not want to answer Li Yuan's question; his eyes remained red as he roared madly.

Li Yuan smiled and shook his head. He held the pistol in his hand and changed the magazine.

*Click* Li Yuan chambered the bullet and slowly pressed it against the young man's head.

"I'll ask you one more time, what is your relationship?"

With the truth pressing against his head, the young man's eyes suddenly became much clearer.

He swallowed hard and said nervously:

"He...is my father..."

"So, the god you speak of... never mind, what does he have to do with me?"

Li Yuan shook his head and said with a smile, "Thank you for your cooperation."

'Bang!'

The .0.45 ACP round fired from the Glock 21 instantly blew the opponent's skull off.

The young man's corpse stared with eyes full of bewilderment.

He stared intently at Li Yuan, who had fired the shot.

That look in his eyes seemed to say, "I've already told you everything, why are you still trying to kill me?"

"I never said I wouldn't kill you."

Li Yuan stood up and wiped the blood splattered on his body.

Then he said to the people behind him, "Let's go, it's time to go home."

What should we do with Dan's body?

Craig suddenly spoke up and asked.

He looked at Li Yuan with a slightly evasive gaze.

I dare not look directly at this guy, who I don't know if he's an angel or a devil.

"If you want to carry it, then carry it yourself."

Li Yuan ignored him and instead asked Sarah and Juno:

"Can you find the direction of the mine? Bruce should still be waiting for us there."

Sarah swallowed hard and nodded cautiously.

"Yes, I've been here before."

In the end, Craig did not carry Dan's body.

Instead, he followed Li Yuan with his head down, returning to the abandoned mine where they had entered the cave.

Bruce spotted the returning group from afar.

He strode over and bowed respectfully to Juno:

"Welcome back safely, Miss Juno."

"It's great to see you alive, Bruce."

Juno smiled and walked over to hug Bruce.

She never imagined that she would survive and walk out of that hellhole.

Bruce looked at Li Yuan standing to the side and said gratefully:

"Mr. Li, thank you very much for your help."

"Hehe, if you're satisfied with the service, remember to give it a five-star review!"

Li Yuan chuckled and joked, inwardly sighing, "That million dollars wasn't easy to come by."

"Mr. Kaplan, I will definitely recommend you to others."

After Bruce finished speaking, he glanced at the darkening sky.

He said apologetically to Li Yuan:

"Mr. Li Yuan, the helicopter has a limited load capacity, so you may have to stay overnight in this town."

"no problem."

Li Yuan readily agreed, then asked in a low voice:

"That commission..."

Bruce smiled and handed over a check for $100 million.

"Don't worry, you won't be shortchanged by a single penny."

Li Yuan breathed a sigh of relief as he held the check in his hand.

If we don't get our money, it'll be a huge struggle to even claim our wages.

Next time something like this happens, we must collect a deposit first!

At this moment, Juno suddenly spoke up:

"Mr. Li, can I buy the pie now?"

"certainly!"

Li Yuan took out the remaining 6 pork liver pies and handed them over.

"Six pies left, special offer: 300,000!"

Bruce was startled upon hearing this.

How did Li Yuan manage to fool everyone and sell the pie to Miss Juno?!

Although he was an assistant, he dared not question Juno's decisions.

But the astonishing price still made him subconsciously look at Juno to confirm.

However, Juno nonchalantly accepted the pie and said to Bruce behind her:

"No problem, Bruce, give him the money."

"Yes, Miss Juno."

Bruce had no choice but to write another check for 30 and hand it to Li Yuan.

"Mr. Li, I will come to pick you up by helicopter tomorrow morning."

"Okay, see you tomorrow morning."

Li Yuan waved to the two people who were leaving in the car.

Then he said to the remaining people behind him:

"Can anyone give me a ride to town?"

Rios said enthusiastically, "Mr. Li, please take my seat..."

But before she could finish speaking, Cathy suddenly interrupted:

"Sit in my seat!"

As she spoke, she glanced at Li Yuan with a lingering, lingering look:

"So that I can thank Mr. Li for saving my life."

She said to Craig:

"Go get in Officer Rios' car. I'll come find you after I drop Mr. Li off!"

Craig was stunned by what he heard, and couldn't help but think to himself,

"I have a feeling you won't be coming home tonight."

Ignoring Craig's gaze,

Cathy pulled Li Yuan along and jogged into the car.

Sitting in the passenger seat, Li Yuan asked with some concern:

"Do you really know the way? I don't want to sleep in the car."

Cathy started the car, her face radiating confidence:

"Don't worry, I'm an experienced driver!"

The yellow Hummer H1 roared out of the mine and sped along the tree-lined path toward the town.

Watching the Hummer drive away, Officer Rios called out to the remaining two men:

"Let's go, you two. You'll have to take my car back to town."

However, after Officer Rios' car had driven a short distance...

Suddenly I caught a glimpse of Cathy's yellow Hummer parked on the side of the road.

Sitting in the passenger seat, Craig excitedly said:

"Stop the car! Is Cathy in trouble?"

Rios glanced at the swaying Hummer and rolled his eyes in exasperation.

"You'd better not go and cause trouble, unless you want to add to their fun."

Craig: "..."
