Chapter 373: Chapter 269 - Black Scorpion’s Only Choice (One More)_1

"It seems, this woman genuinely is your true love, Black Scorpion." The enchanting female voice, full of poorly disguised amusement, slowly seeped into Black Scorpion’s ear.

"Red Scorpion, it’s indeed you." He hadn’t expected she would really still be alive, "Where is Yang Hao?" She was using Yang Hao’s phone, that meant Yang Hao must be in her possession. The thought of Yang Hao being in this woman’s grasp sent chills running along Black Scorpion’s spine, his deep concern laid bare.

"Rest assured." Upon hearing Black Scorpion’s words, Red Scorpion remained cheerfully undisturbed, "Such a pure, adorable little girl, I really can’t bear to hurt her." At least for now, she wouldn’t take Yang Hao’s life, after all, she still required Black Scorpion’s abilities. Once she accomplished her own goals, she would certainly treat them ’properly’.

"Speak up, what exactly do you want?" Black Scorpion’s tone gradually returned to calm, though those who knew him well, like Red Scorpion, could still detect the cold undertone, "Room 2901 of the Hongda hotel, I’ll wait for you there, after all, aren’t we ’old friends’?"

"It’s been quite some time since ’old friends’ last met, why don’t we first catch up, after all, your little girlfriend is here, ’quietly’ waiting for you." Her words carried an unsettling, wordless eeriness.

Black Scorpion frowned, "I warn you not to touch her, or else, I won’t let you off." After saying this, he immediately hung up.

Yang Hao, wait for me.

The ’busy’ tone suddenly rang in his ear, Red Scorpion’s playful smile disappeared at that moment, her eyes taking on a chilling hardness.

Hongda hotel.

The doorbell rang, and when Red Scorpion opened the door the next moment, a hand radiating with cold determination firmly clasped around her neck, "Where is Yang Hao?" His gaze quickly swept over the room, and upon seeing Yang Hao lying on the sofa, he forcefully shoved Red Scorpion aside without a moment’s hesitation. He swiftly made his way toward Yang Hao while Red Scorpion choked and coughed, a sinister light gleaming in her eyes.

Black Scorpion!

"Yang Hao." Completely ignoring the choking form of Red Scorpion, Black Scorpion crouched at Yang Hao’s side, his large hand gently shaking her, "Yang Hao, wake up, Yang Hao...." Unfortunately, no matter how much he shook her and called her name, Yang Hao didn’t respond at all, remaining perfectly still with her eyes closed, as if she were a beautifully carved shell.

"What did you do to her?" He abruptly stood up, attacking Red Scorpion once more. What had Red Scorpion done to Yang Hao?

"Ha." Red Scorpion coldly laughed, her voice hoarse, she spoke with apparent difficulty, "Black Scorpion, if you dare act like this again, I assure you, your girlfriend will never wake again. You should know what I’m capable of."

"Then let me tell you this, if anything happens to Yang Hao, I won’t hesitate to kill you either." Just as ruthlessly, he tossed her aside once more, before returning to Yang Hao’s side and tightly gripping her hand.

"Speak, why did my abductors lead me here? What is your true purpose?" If there wasn’t a purpose, Black Scorpion thought, considering Red Scorpion’s ruthless heart, he or Yang Hao, or both, might have been dead by now.

"You must have seen it in the news, the incident at our base a few days ago. If I were to tell you, that I know who was behind it all, would you believe me?" Red Scorpion answered with her own question, her eyes fixed on Black Scorpion as she spoke calmly.

Black Scorpion scoffed, not offering her even a glance, "Don’t tell me you’re trying to play the saint and avenge your fellow base members, Red Scorpion, the role of martyr doesn’t suit you." They were all assassins, fate’s playthings. From the moment they had joined the Organization, their survival rested solely on their own skills and efforts. Even their own faction wouldn’t react to their deaths, let alone someone as vile and self-absorbed as Red Scorpion. Her eyes only beheld herself; for her own purposes, she could easily eliminate all of them without batting an eyelid.

"It seems like in this world, it’s truly only you, Black Scorpion, who understands me." Rather than getting angry, Red Scorpion laughed delightedly, her face alluring, seemingly not bothered in the slightest by Black Scorpion’s taunts.

"Speak, who’s the perpetrator." Anyone who could so effortlessly bomb their base, displaying formidable power, wasn’t to be taken lightly. Furthermore, it was the first time he had seen Red Scorpion in such a... needy state. If it wasn’t for the fact that Yang Hao’s antidote was still in her hands, he would have liked to applaud her adversary.
