Chapter 438: Chapter 390: Exposed, Danger

"Uh..."

The words from Ye Fan came through his ear, filled with murderous intent, and Taihu was completely shocked.

On one hand, according to the agreement between Ye Fan and him, Ye Fan was only responsible for killing the leaders of the Dark Council, the Giant Axe Organization, and the Yakuza in Southeast Asia, yet now, Ye Fan had directly killed twelve people, including Yagawa Shin!

On the other hand, Ye Fan had told him to wait until the Southeast Asian heads of the three major forces were dead before acting to wipe out their remnants, but now, Ye Fan wanted him to immediately attack the Yakuza and ensure that all their members in Southeast Asia go to Hell!

Had the Yakuza offended him?

Amid his shock, Taihu couldn’t help but quietly question himself, and before he could come up with an explanation, the call was disconnected, leaving only a busy tone in the receiver.

"Whew~"

Realizing this, Taihu put down his phone, took a deep breath, frowned, and thought for a moment, then got up and walked towards the door.

In the villa’s courtyard, Nawa and Su Ke were each at their respective meditation sites practicing meditation cultivation. Sensing Taihu moving out of the villa, they simultaneously opened their eyes, stood up, and walked towards Taihu.

"Master Nawa, Master Su Ke, I just had a call from Ye Fan."

Taihu got straight to the point, "He said on the phone that he has killed all twelve Yakuza elites, including Yagawa Shin. He requires that we kill the remaining members of the Yakuza in Southeast Asia tonight, or else we will join Yagawa Shin in burial!"

Click!

Hearing Taihu’s words, both Nawa and Su Ke were shaken, their faces displaying a serious look, showing no doubt in Taihu’s words.

Seeing this, Taihu inwardly heaved a sigh of relief.

Although Nawa and Su Ke were his personal guards in name, they were only responsible for protecting his life and did not participate in gang fights.

This meant he couldn’t command Nawa and Su Ke to work for him!

And... his previous agreement to Ye Fan to eradicate the remnants of the three major forces was entirely a ploy to scare them by waving Ye Fan’s banner, forcing them to act.

Now, seeing no hint of doubt in Nawa and Su Ke, Taihu naturally felt reassured.

"Boss, according to the agreement, we are only responsible for your personal safety..."

Just as Taihu was reassured, Nawa and Su Ke exchanged a glance, silently reached an agreement, and Nawa began to speak, intending to negotiate terms with Taihu.

Taihu, unusually, interrupted Nawa, "I’m sorry, Masters, I didn’t expect this matter to involve you, but rest assured, although this is Ye Fan’s threat, I will pay you correspondingly."

"Alright."

Nawa and Su Ke exchanged another look, reached an agreement, and Nawa continued, "Since he wants us to kill the remaining Yakuza members tonight, we must act immediately, and we also need accurate and detailed intelligence."

"I will immediately arrange a car to take you to the airport, and I will have someone prepare detailed intelligence for you to review in the car," Taihu had already planned and made arrangements.

"Good."

Nawa nodded in agreement, then added, "Boss, since we are going to deal with the remaining members of the Yakuza, we can’t guarantee your safety. You must be careful yourself."

"I will be."

Hearing Nawa’s concerned words, Taihu felt no touch of emotion.

Because he knew, Nawa and Su Ke were only worried that if he were assassinated, they would not be able to claim their promised payment!

Ten minutes later, Nawa and Su Ke took a Mercedes V-Class to the airport to catch the last flight from Bangkok to Ho Chi Minh City, while Taihu quietly left the villa to find a safe and hidden place to hide.

Ye Fan was unaware of all this.

His rage led him to kill several people and he demanded that Taihu must massacre the Yakuza tonight; partly because of Yagawa Shin’s bestial behavior, and partly because of Huaxia’s history with Japan, which made him dislike the Japanese.

This history isn’t just about the last century’s inhuman war of aggression but also includes the outbreak of the ’destroy’ virus five years ago when humanity faced calamity, and Japan’s duplicity.

After the outbreak of the ’destroy’ virus, Huaxia was the first to develop a drug against the virus. In order to fend off disaster, Southeast Asian countries expressed their willingness to submit to Huaxia, hoping Huaxia would provide the drug.

After fending off the disaster domestically, Huaxia accepted the requests of Southeast Asian countries and provided them with a large supply of the drug.

At that time, seeing Huaxia aid, Japan and South Korea imitated the Southeast Asian countries and expressed that as long as Huaxia helped fend off the disaster, they would be willing to submit to Huaxia.

The Huaxia government also accepted the requests of these two countries, providing them with the first batch of drugs.

However—

Just as Huaxia was about to provide the second batch of drugs, the United States and the European Union almost simultaneously developed their own vaccine against the virus.

This sudden change made Japan and South Korea immediately change their minds, throwing themselves into the arms of the United States and joining the American Alliance, and hypocritically returning a batch of drugs to Huaxia.

The duplicitous behavior of Japan and South Korea enraged Huaxia’s senior officials, but considering that the world was facing a disaster, they did not retaliate. However, the hostility of the Huaxia public toward the Japanese and Koreans rose to historically unprecedented levels!

An hour later.

While Nawa and Su Ke, forced by Ye Fan’s threat, flew to Ho Chi Minh City to eliminate the remaining Yakuza members, Ye Fan entrusted a mother and daughter he had saved to the person in charge of the Tianshan Group’s Southeast Asia Special Zone, requesting that they keep secret his involvement and find a way to settle them.

Having arranged this, he hurriedly took a car to the airport to catch the last flight from Ho Chi Minh City to Kuala Lumpur—according to intelligence provided by the Yanhuang Organization, the second largest underground force in the world, the Dark Council Southeast Asian division, was located in Kuala Lumpur.

And the person in charge of the Dark Council in Southeast Asia, Hunter, also resided in Kuala Lumpur year-long!

Like Ho Chi Minh City, Kuala Lumpur is also a major city in the Southeast Asia Special Zone. Its level of prosperity is the same as Ho Chi Minh City’s, if not greater, and it is nearly comparable to Bangkok.

During the national era, it had been the capital and the largest city of Malaysia, also a modern international metropolis where old and new glories reflected each other, and Eastern colors organically merged with Western civilization.

At three o’clock in the morning, the brightly-lit Kuala Lumpur, having withdrawn from its clamor, was like a tired child, falling into a deep sleep.

In the silent night, a taxi sped along the empty streets, heading toward the location of the Dark Council’s Southeast Asia branch.

Ye Fan sat in the back seat of the car, reclining on the seat, appearing to rest with his eyes closed, yet information about Hunter surfaced in his mind.

Hunter, male, fifty years old, one of the four princes of the Dark Council, became a Level 8 Warrior at the age of thirty-five. Because he could never break through to the War God Realm, his status in the Dark Council was far less than the other three princes, hence the council’s leader had dispatched him to Southeast Asia to try to expand and strengthen the Dark Council’s presence there.

With Hunter’s data surfacing in his mind, Ye Fan was very aware that although Hunter was only equivalent to an Innate Great Perfection Stage Martial Artist, he had stepped into that realm many years ago and, having experienced countless life-and-death fights, possessed extensive combat experience, making him an invincible presence among the Innate Great Perfection Stage Martial Artists!

Moreover, in Ye Fan’s view, although Hunter’s status in the Dark Council was inferior to the other three princes, he was still a prince with significant authority, and he might possess some Magic Artifacts.

In such a situation, Hunter was definitely not comparable to that half-baked Innate Great Perfection Stage Martial Artist like Yagawa Shin, who practiced crooked cultivation techniques; the difficulty of assassination was extremely high!

While Ye Fan analyzed Hunter, in a mansion in the outskirts of Kuala Lumpur, well-lit and bustling, Hunter, who was one of the four great princes of the Dark Council and in charge of the Southeast Asia branch, was awakened by a phone call.

"Damn it, Luke, don’t you know I don’t like to be disturbed while I’m cultivating?"

Visibly annoyed for being forced to stop his cultivation, Hunter grabbed his phone and shouted, "You’d better have a good explanation for this, or else I wouldn’t mind feeding you to the fish in the Strait of Malacca!"

"Sorry, Prince Hunter, I didn’t mean to disrupt your cultivation, but this matter is too important, I must report it to you." On the phone, Luke, the intelligence chief of the Dark Council’s Southeast Asia branch, said with a trembling voice.

"What is it?" Hunter asked.

"I’ve just received news that Taihu’s people Nawa and Su Ke personally led a team to massacre the Yakuza, causing heavy casualties. It’s said that even Yagawa Shin has been killed!" Luke reported quickly.

"Oh?"

Surprised upon hearing Luke’s report, Hunter was taken aback, his face showing some astonishment.

He thought to himself that with Nawa and Su Ke’s strength, if they teamed up, killing Yagawa Shin, who barely qualified as a Level 8 Ninja, wouldn’t be difficult, but... Tiger Gang’s proactive strike against the Yakuza was beyond his expectations!

Because... just a few hours ago, he had been discussing with Lovsky, who had come from Myanmar specifically, on how to join forces to snatch Tiger Gang’s territory and eliminate them!

"I understand. Inform all the core members of this news and ask them to enhance their vigilance."

After a moment of shock, Hunter sensed Lovsky’s presence approaching his villa and quickly made arrangements before ending the call.

"Prince Hunter, Mr. Lovsky is outside the villa; he says he has important matters to discuss with you." Soon, one of Hunter’s personal guards swiftly walked into the villa’s courtyard, bowing as he reported to Hunter.

"Lovsky, my friend, come right in," Hunter called out to the outside of the villa.

"Okay!"

A confident voice came from outside.

As the voice fell, the person appeared.

The Giant Axe Organization’s Southeast Asia chief, Lovsky, appeared before Hunter like a ghost.

In the light, it could be seen that Lovsky was over two meters tall, with a fierce appearance and a physique as sturdy as an ox, his whole body brimming with explosive power. Standing there, he was like a polar bear, exerting a strong oppressive force.

In comparison, Hunter looked much thinner, his entire figure almost skeletal, shrouded in a black robe, with deeply sunken eyes and blood-colored pupils that gave a terrifying impression.

Perhaps knowing Lovsky had important matters to discuss with Hunter, or perhaps unable to withstand Lovsky’s oppressive aura, Hunter’s guard promptly left the villa’s courtyard.

Upon seeing this, Lovsky cut straight to the point, "Hunter, I just received news that Tiger Gang suddenly attacked the Yakuza, did you know about this?"

"I also just received this news."

Hunter honestly answered, yet he was secretly amazed at how the Giant Axe Organization’s intelligence network in Southeast Asia was not weaker than the Dark Council’s.

"What do you think?" Lovsky asked directly.

"I find it very strange."

Hunter narrowed his eyes, his eyes sparkling with a blood-red glow, and said ominously, "As far as I know, Taihu is a cautious and timid person. Initiating an attack on the Yakuza doesn’t fit his style. There might be some secret here."

"A secret?"

Lovsky frowned, then suddenly noticed the black ring on Hunter’s right thumb flash.

"I think this secret will soon be revealed," Hunter said with a cold laugh.

"What do you mean?" Lovsky asked, puzzled.

"Someone has infiltrated my villa, and it’s very likely someone Tiger Gang sent to assassinate me."

Hunter chuckled coldly, narrowing his eyes, his eyes blazing with blood, "Do you think I should chop him up and feed him to the dogs, or would throwing him straight into the Strait of Malacca to feed the sharks be better?"
