Chapter 662: 653, Sudden Outburst (Third Update)_1

"Now I believe."

Zhang Ming carefully savored these five words. From the moment Ren He appeared until Liu Erbao mentioned a void legend spoken of by the owner of the black shop a week ago, these words seemed to serve as a sort of annotation for the youth who had entered the black shop alone, suggesting that nothing was impossible for him.

Zhang Ming and the others didn’t know why Ren He had appeared here, nor did they understand why he had some connection with this group of fearsome men, especially when he had clearly stated he wouldn’t come to Karamay with the film crew, yet here he was, inexplicably.

All of this, Zhang Ming and Liu Erbao couldn’t get an answer to; they just suddenly became certain that the vicious youth who could send someone flying with a single punch must be this person.

"Why is he alone?" someone who was out of the loop whispered in shock, "One against ten? That’s not realistic, is it?"

However, there were people in the film crew who had seen Qinghe’s big boss before, and not just Zhang Ming and Liu Erbao...

"This is... our boss, for heaven’s sake!" someone said incredulously to the new members of Qinghe Film and Television who had not yet met Ren He.

When the old team of Qinghe Film and Television went to Chongqing to shoot "Crazy Stone", Ren He had spent a few days with the crew, and it was Ren He who had received them when they arrived.

So it was perfectly normal for some to have seen Ren He. Now, in such an unbelievable place, they encountered an unbelievable person who was involved in an unbelievable situation.

All of it was so bizarre.

The veteran employees of Qinghe had known their boss as a clean-cut youth, who would joke with everyone in the office, beat the big shots at Dota without mercy, target the industry leaders with sharp criticism during the annual meeting, and possess theboldness to lead Qinghe Group in expanding their territory.

However, regardless of which image it was, it was different from now. Now the boss was in the desert, alone in an SUV, as if he were a character from a movie.

Even if there were ten men ready for battle, the youth’s tall but not burly figure stood out like an unfathomable mountain peak.

Chen Da was about to rush over to help, but Zhang Ming pulled him back, "Don’t be foolish; the boss obviously doesn’t want us involved in this matter. Let’s not mess up his plan."

Chen Da was still restless. Although he did not know why the big boss was here, he did not want anything to happen to him.

Zhang Ming turned and spoke to the crew members who were peering curiously from behind him, "After this, everyone signs a confidentiality agreement and receives 10,000 yuan as compensation for keeping the secret. If anyone spills today’s events, don’t blame Old Zhang for turning his back on you."

In fact, among those present, Zhang Ming was the one who understood the situation the best. Regardless of whether they could be of help later on, their first priority was to take care of any miscellaneous issues for the boss.

In truth, Ren He was also surprised to encounter the film crew here. He had not informed anyone about his new satellite phone except Li Kun and Yang Xi, so he had no idea that Zhang Ming and the crew just happened to be in the City that Never Sleeps for shooting.

He had just driven by and seen a bunch of tents and at first wondered if it was some camping trip? Even with Super Vision, Ren He could only clearly see things within 2 kilometers; beyond 5 kilometers was beyond his capability. After all, the Divine Punishment System had not planned to turn him into a real superhero up to this point, and it probably never will.

By the time he clearly saw what was happening here and spotted Li Kun and others in a defensive posture, it was already inappropriate to turn back. Ren He could only go ahead with the original plan, hoping that Director Zhang and the others were smart enough.

Initially, Ren He had not planned to return, after all, the mission was completed, and he had no intention of claiming back that million; leaving right away was the best option.

Anyway, he had no entanglements or grudges with Li Kun and the others; he could just go back to living his life in the Capital.

But as he was driving back to Karamay, he suddenly noticed that the status on his attribute panel "Should a yak die because of the host, the host will lose one sense for a month per yak" had not disappeared!

This is getting ridiculous, I completed the task and this status still won’t disappear? Even though this was an additional condition added by the Divine Punishment System upon task completion, the mission is completed, isn’t it?

Could it be that the Divine Punishment System assumes by default that, even though Li Kun and the others were scared away by me, they still have the potential to return to the Desert to continue hunting yaks?

Does that mean I have to deal with Li Kun and the others myself?

Ren He walked slowly into the black store, smiling as he asked, "How did it go, where’s the thing I wanted?"

Li Kun sat behind the table sneering without a word, his hand slicing down repeatedly with the Dog Leg knife onto the roasted lamb leg in front of him, while a burly man picked up the tracker on the table and growled, "Are you fucking playing us?"

"Did you think I’d just hand you a million up front and not worry about you actually running off?" Ren He reacted quickly, the justification slipping out smoothly, his words implying that the tracker was placed there just in case Li Kun and his crew decided to take the money and run.

To this, Li Kun replied calmly, "When I was a detective, we were also equipped with gadgets like bugs, but tracker technology has always been quite primitive. However, this one in front of us is clearly different. I’ve met many legendary figures over the past thirty years, honestly killed a few as well, seen those who are tough and brave, and seen cowards as well, but I’ve never seen someone like you, who stands fearless in front of a group of us. Who exactly are you?"

"Just a guy buying yak horns," Ren He said cheerfully.

In the midst of conversation, Ren He’s figure suddenly burst forth, moving like a cheetah on the plains—silent when still, and thunderously powerful when in motion.

All of Li Kun’s people didn’t expect that this person would initiate aggression when facing ten of them; this seemingly harmless young man actually had such an arrogant character!

In an instant, the two men by Li Kun’s side reached for their waists to draw their guns, ready to shoot and kill on the spot if this young man tried to injure others or aimed to capture Li Kun.

Previously, everyone had seen the skills of this young man named Lu Xiaotu, so they didn’t think of using close combat to subdue him. It was also because they knew of his strength that Li Kun had signaled for them to keep their guns at their waists early on.

However, they probably never imagined that Ren He had already seen them take out their guns from a distance of two kilometers, including who was hiding the guns and where!

The man closest to Ren He swung his knife at him, but Ren He didn’t pay him any mind. The moment he passed by, the man only felt an immense force through the blade. By the time he realized what was happening, his knife had already been snatched away by Ren He’s quicker reflexes, taking it from the back of the blade.

Without stopping, Ren He, in the midst of his rush, flung the Dog Leg knife from his hand, straightforwardly aiming for the gunman to Li Kun’s left.

He didn’t have any knife-throwing skills, so as the Dog Leg knife spun, it ended up hitting the man’s arm with the handle. Everyone, seeing that it was the handle that struck the man’s arm, let their guard down a little, but then there was a snap, and the man’s arm was actually broken straight away!

How much force was that?

By this time, Ren He had already reached another gunman, dodging Li Kun’s Dog Leg knife and delivering a punch to the right shoulder of the gunman. This punch seemed to carry the power of a dragon and elephant!

In the dark night, everyone watched in amazement as the gunman’s body spun and flew backward.

The legends are true!

Something came up at home these past two days; I ended up spending a whole day in the used car market, so today I am making up for the Chapter I owed from yesterday.
