Chapter 885: Chapter 890 Bai Tong

"Yang Gang.."

"It’s you again!" You Sen’s face twisted with anger.

Yang Gang was a bit shocked in his heart.

Before, he had also encountered You Sen, who, though not exactly a good young man, wasn’t that wicked at heart. But now, he had completely turned into a ’demon’.

After changing their boss, Stabbing Gold’s aggressiveness and attack nature had suddenly skyrocketed, and at the same time, the loyalty of its members had greatly increased. The Federal Government had once tortured captured members of Stabbing Gold. Not only did these people not reveal any information about the organization, to prevent being drugged and coerced to talk by the Federal Government, they even bit off their own tongues to commit suicide.

Yang Gang could guess as much.

"This new boss of Stabbing Gold has really top-notch brainwashing abilities, and now Stabbing Gold is getting more and more terrifying."

Gathering his thoughts, Yang Gang’s gaze fell on You Sen once again.

"You better scram before I count to three," Yang Gang said indifferently.

You Sen burst into laughter, not retreating but instead, with bloodshot eyes, he charged over, wielding a baton.

Yang Gang sighed, stretched out his hand, and then a chill formed in his palm before dispersing, forming a small cold zone in front of him.

You Sen directly ran into the cold zone.

At that instant, You Sen couldn’t move. The cold froze him, instantly turning You Sen into ice.

Yang Gang clenched his fingers, following the ice control method Lin Shihai had taught him, he willed a thought, and the cold air directly entered You Sen’s clothes.

But after that, the cold air couldn’t invade any further.

"Ah, I’ve slowly mastered the technique, but my psychic power level is too low, lacking the strength to drive the cold to frostbite active materials, unable to freeze the flesh of living beings into ice like Lin Shihai."

Despite some regrets, Yang Gang had finally discovered the real strength of Ice Series Superpowers.

After You Sen got frozen, the local bullies who were originally arrogant and overbearing got so scared they peed their pants, escaping in a very sorry state.

At this moment, Qin Ruoli looked at You Sen, her expression hesitating, but eventually, she said, "Yang Gang, let him go. Although You Sen has behaved badly, his crimes are not worthy of death. Also, he has helped me quite a lot in the past."

"Alright." Yang Gang snapped his right hand, and the ice covering You Sen immediately shattered.

"Hahaha!" At this time, the onlookers burst into laughter.

It turned out that the clothes on You Sen’s body, which had their material composition changed to ice, had also disappeared.

At this moment, You Sen was completely naked in the full view of the public.

After regaining his senses, You Sen was completely devastated, wanting to find a hole to crawl into. Eventually, with his hands covering his crotch, he fled Antique City in embarrassment.

Only then did Yang Gang walk over to Qin’s father and said, "Uncle, we need to leave. Stabbing Gold’s people will probably arrive soon."

"Mr. Yang, you take Ruoli and go, taking me along would just be a burden..."

Qin’s father was interrupted by Yang Gang before he could finish.

"Uncle, do you want to turn everything I’ve done into a futile effort? If you are determined to die, why would I take such a huge risk to save you?"

Yang Gang’s words were very impolite.

However, Qin’s father was not angry; he sighed and then said, "Then, I’ll have to trouble you."

Yang Gang picked up Qin’s father, glanced at Little Fatty, who was also injured on the ground, and said, "Hey, Little Fatty, can you get up?"

This Little Fatty was the same guy he had encountered in Antique City before, chubby and with a likable presence, a very amusing guy. He and You Sen were both Qin Ruoli’s childhood friends.

"I’m still okay." Little Fatty got up after speaking, faster than Yang Gang had expected.

"This..." Qin Ruoli was incredulous, "Little Fatty, weren’t you seriously injured?"

"Feigning injury." Yang Gang smiled faintly.

Little Fatty scratched his head, embarrassed, "You saw through it, looks like my acting skills are still not refined enough."

Qin Ruoli was speechless; she had known Little Fatty for more than twenty years since childhood, how had she never realized how cunning this guy was?

"The more naïve an animal’s appearance, the more cunning it is," Yang Gang commented.

Little Fatty protested, "That’s not true! I was just preserving my strength, waiting for a chance to rescue Ruoli and Uncle Qin. There was no chance of winning against You Sen and the others head-on. I was enduring humiliation to bide my time..."

Yang Gang rolled his eyes, "Move faster, or the police will arrive."

Afterward, Yang Gang carried Qin’s father and left Antique City.

Under the guidance of ’Love and World Peace’ intelligence agents stationed in Xilan, Yang Gang and the group reached a farm on the outskirts of Jincheng.

After settling down Qin Ruoli, her father, and Little Fatty, Yang Gang was invited to a large meeting hall.

"Boss, you’re here." A man in his forties stood in front of Yang Gang, head bowed, respectfully said, "I am Gao Qiao, the head of the ’Love and World Peace’ Xilan branch."

Yang Gang nodded, "Have Zuo Lan and Ye Qing not arrived yet?"

"Yes. Miss Zuo and Mr. Ye just called, saying they will gather here this evening." Gao Qiao was very respectful and excited.

Logically speaking, with his status, he had no right to meet the big boss directly, but due to the major incident in Xilan, he had the fortune to meet the legendary boss in person.

Gao Qiao didn’t show any contempt towards Yang Gang because of his youth, because he could feel that this young leader had an unfathomable presence, an aura that commanded submission.

"Is this place safe?" Yang Gang asked again.

"Boss, rest assured. Our ’Love and World Peace’ doesn’t have a large branch in Xilan, nor many people, but they are all elite and tight-lipped. Moreover, the smaller the scale, the stronger the concealment. Stabbing Gold has taken over Xilan, and now they haven’t even fully controlled the core area of Jincheng, let alone this relatively remote region," Gao Qiao explained.

Yang Gang nodded. He pondered for a moment, then asked, "How is the situation with the Xue Clan right now?"

Gao Qiao sighed, "Stabbing Gold is a blatant terrorist organization. Just ten minutes ago, the fifth Xue Clan hostage was killed. They also announced that from now on, they will speed up the executions, executing one hostage every hour. The next one to be executed is a young woman named Xue Yao..."

"Xue Yao?" Yang Gang’s pupils suddenly narrowed, and he crushed the teacup in his hand.

Gao Qiao was startled and nervously asked, "Boss, what, what’s wrong?"

"How many armed personnel are available at the branch right now?" Yang Gang asked directly.

"Uh, about fifty or so," Gao Qiao replied.

"Have them all armed and go rescue," Yang Gang commanded, standing up and moving towards the exit.

Gao Qiao was startled, "Boss, are you going too?"

Yang Gang stopped, turned, and looked at Gao Qiao, "You’re coming too. If this matter is handled well, I might consider bringing you into the core circle."

"The core circle!" Gao Qiao’s eyes lit up.

Nowadays, ’Love and World Peace,’ excluding Xueji’s national defense forces, had more than 50,000 members, but the core circle had less than fifty people.

Unlike other organizations, the core circle members of ’Love and World Peace’ are not all high-ranking officials; some are not even officers. Yet, they are the most envied existence by the entire organization’s members because the people of the core circle are the boss’s confidants, the ones he trusts the most.

This is a tremendous honor.

Like most organization members, ever since Gao Qiao joined ’Love and World Peace,’ he dreamt of being part of the core circle. However, he also knew it was extremely difficult. Many senior officials of the organization couldn’t even enter because one must gain the boss’s trust to be eligible for the core circle.

And now, the opportunity to realize his dream was right in front of him. How could Gao Qiao not be excited?

He immediately said, "Boss, I swear to complete the mission!"

However, Gao Qiao calmed down and hesitated, but eventually spoke up, "Boss, personally, I think this is a trap. Now that nearly three hundred members of the Xue Clan have been taken hostage, it would be easy for Stabbing Gold to kill them. Poisoning or bombing would do the job. There’s no need to kill them one by one. And yet, they have exposed the location where the hostages are executed, which is obviously a deceit."

Yang Gang looked at Gao Qiao with slight surprise. This guy wasn’t the sort to get hot-headed in his eagerness for glory.

Not bad.

He composed himself and then said flatly, "It’s obviously a trap, likely meant to lure forces related to the Xue Clan to attempt a rescue, and then capture them all in one fell swoop."

"Then, Boss, if you already know, why..."

Yang Gang paused briefly, then calmly said, "Members of the Xue Clan are relatives of an important person close to me."

Gao Qiao didn’t ask further. His expression was resolute. "Boss, just give the order. We are your spear!"

"Gather the brothers, arm yourselves, get ready to rescue."

"Yes!"

-----

About ten nautical miles from the Jincheng port lies an island named Goldfish Island.

The area of Goldfish Island is about the size of thirty football fields. It used to be a famous tourist destination in Xilan, but now it has been transformed by Stabbing Gold into an impregnable steel fortress prison, holding around five hundred hostages, including members of the Xue Clan.

As for Goldfish Island turning into a steel fortress overnight, there was much discussion in Xilan, with people calling it a miracle. Some supporters of Stabbing Gold even called it a ’miracle’, believing that God favored Stabbing Gold, urging the people of Xilan to support Stabbing Gold’s rule.

But Yang Gang had a hunch.

Alchemy...

Alchemy is the ultimate art of the Gold Series superpowers, capable of controlling gold elements to form various steel structures or tools.

Though Gold Series superpowers are considered natural series abilities, they are rarer than most special series superpowers.

As of now, the only Gold Series superpower user Yang Gang knew was Bai Tong.

Back in the Land of Fallen, Bai Tong had also displayed her alchemy abilities.

Remembering Bai Tong, Yang Gang felt a complex array of emotions.

So far, aside from a confusing drunken stupor, he had slept with three women: Catherine, Liu Lan, and Bai Tong.

These three shared a common feature—they were all wives of others.

Among them, Bai Tong was the oldest and most mature.

Sleeping with Bai Tong happened after getting drunk. To take care of his feelings, Bai Tong kept the matter a secret.

If it weren’t for his ability to extract others’ memories, he himself would still believe that nothing had happened between him and Bai Tong.
