Zhang Yuze landed at the bottom of the cliff. Listening to the sounds around him, he was certain that this was a hidden place. Zhang Yuze hid to the side, observing the movements. Soon, he spotted a group of people sneaking away.

Looking at these people, Zhang Yuze found them suspicious. He frowned, initially wanting to stop them, but then he held back. Zhang Yuze let them go, deciding instead to go straight to their lair.

Qiu Zhenhua had said that the Zhu family was likely involved in arms dealing and smuggling, so this place was probably Zhu's drug manufacturing base. Nowadays, many drug traffickers, because of the strict border controls in Donghua, which made it difficult to import drugs, simply produce them themselves, saving the step of importing from abroad.

From what Zhang Yuze could see now, this was likely the Zhu family's secret location. No wonder the villagers outside seemed so secretive; it turned out they were outposts, responsible for security.

Although Zhang Yuze had a plan in mind, he decided to investigate the situation himself. If he could get the police to deal with them, it would save him a lot of trouble. Although the Zhu family hadn't bothered him yet because of that person, Zhang Yuze saw it as an uncertain factor. He didn't want a ticking time bomb next to him, so he planned to remove it. If he could use the power of the authorities, he wouldn't object. Of course, this required sufficient evidence. At that time, even if the Zhu family's influence was strong here, they wouldn't be a match for the state. They would probably be wiped out in one strike.

Zhang Yuze flew for a while below the Jue Long Cliff. Soon, he saw a continuous stretch of houses, and many men in gray clothes were busily moving around in the open space.

This scene startled Zhang Yuze. He landed on a house and, listening to the roar of machinery inside, he determined that this must be a manufacturing base, but he didn't yet know what was being manufactured. He looked ahead and saw several guards with submachine guns standing there. Zhang Yuze frowned, knowing that it might be difficult to get in and investigate thoroughly. Although Zhang Yuze considered himself very capable, he wasn't confident he could sneak in without alerting anyone, especially with people inside. So, this wasn't the best time.

Squinting, Zhang Yuze thought for a moment and decided to leave first.

At this moment, Zheng Jie was kneeling at the edge of the cliff, staring straight down at Jue Long Cliff. Several hours had passed, and it was gradually getting dark, but Zhang Yuze hadn't returned. Although Zheng Jie's hope for Zhang Yuze's survival was becoming increasingly slim, she still wanted to believe in that 0.0-something percent chance.

"Yuze, I'm the one who harmed you. If you come back now, I promise you… I promise you I'm willing to do anything for you," Zheng Jie said, wiping away tears.

"Really? Then I'm back!" Just as Zheng Jie finished speaking, a very familiar voice to her rang out beside her ear.
