Chapter 460: Chapter 460: Black Market - Task Published by Mr. Liu

Zhu Chanji was very cooperative with Xiao Zheng’s request and immediately arranged for his intelligence agency to start the investigation. In no time, this massive state machinery began to operate at full speed, and members of the Futu Gang began to take action in places like Nan City, Zhonghai City, and Jiangcheng City.

At the same time, Xiao Zheng also issued orders for the members of Sky Net to coordinate with the members of the Futu Gang.

After the two top forces started cooperating, a tremendous energy burst forth, and an invisible storm swept over this vast region.

Then, in less than a day’s time, a piece of intelligence surfaced—it was said that within a top-tier black market nestled deep in the mountains at the junction of the three cities, someone had issued contracts for the assassination of Hua Futen and Qing Linfeng!

"A black market?"

Xiao Zheng looked at the intelligence report in his hand.

"Yes, this black market is known as the Abyss Black Market, much like an abyss, unfathomable. Many terrifying forces stand behind it, including significant figures from the political sphere and giants from the military. Their power is enormous. As long as you have the money, even if you want to buy a missile, the people in there can make it happen for you,"

said Zhu Chanji with a smile.

"Such a black market shouldn’t be allowed to exist in Huaxia, I would think," Xiao Zheng said, rather surprised. He had never heard of this black market during his time as the Sect Leader of Tianji Sect.

"Sigh."

Zhu Chanji heaved a sigh, "It’s rather embarrassing to say, but this black market only took shape in recent years. It’s backed by some real big shots. We at Futu also thought about eliminating it since this black market poses a great danger to society. Many people have already lost their lives because of it.

However, our operations have invariably failed because every time we take action, we are obstructed by various powers."

Xiao Zheng chuckled, "Heh, do I not know you? Since you’ve set your sights on this black market, I’m sure you already have some strategies up your sleeve, and as soon as the time is right, you’ll be able to uproot it completely."

Zhu Chanji laughed heartily, "You hit the nail on the head, Evil God!"

Xiao Zheng said, "When the time comes, if you need my help, just say the word, and we at Sky Net will spare no effort."

In Huaxia, the Futu Gang had done many favors for Sky Net, which Xiao Zheng, of course, kept in mind. The Evil God was never one to be ungrateful. If Futu truly needed help, he would definitely take action. What’s more, exterminating a malignant tumor like a black market would be an exhilarating deed.

"Haha, rest assured, I definitely won’t be shy to ask."

Zhu Chanji laughed heartily.

"Alright, now that we have the intelligence, I’ll go take a look at that black market," Xiao Zheng stood up and bid farewell to Zhu Chanji.

"Do you need our help? How about I send a few of Futu’s top masters to accompany you?" Zhu Chanji hurriedly said.

Xiao Zheng waved his hand and said with a smile, "No need. It’s not that big of a deal, a few of us will be more than enough."

Zhu Chanji thought about it and agreed. With Xiao Zheng and his companions’ strength, sweeping through a black market was indeed a simple matter.

"Then good luck to you," Zhu Chanji said with a smile.

Xiao Zheng nodded, left the Futu Base, and returned to Sky Net’s secret base.

At this time, Long Qie and Titan were already waiting there.

"You’ve received the intelligence, right?" Xiao Zheng asked.

"We have. According to the intelligence we’ve collected, the party that issued contracts for the assassination of Hua Futen and Qing Linfeng is a shop in the black market called ’Seven Killings.’ This shop acts like an intermediary agency where clients who want to kill someone can post the details, the price, the deadlines, and other requirements.

The assassins, when browsing through these assassination offers, can pick the ones that suit them to undertake. During this process, the client’s information is kept completely confidential, ensuring their safety," Long Qie explained the workings of Seven Killings.

"Hmph, the one who issued this task must be Mr. Liu. Even if we obtain the client’s information, it won’t be of much use. With Mr. Liu’s methods, he’s sure to have a way to cover up his tracks without a trace, we will never find him this way," Xiao Zheng pondered for a while, then his eyes flashed fiercely, "We’ll head to the black market right away. The main goal is to obtain information on those two assassins and take them out to prove our innocence. At the same time, it will serve as a deterrence to Mr. Liu!"

"Yes!"

Both Long Qie and Titan exclaimed in unison.

"Alright, let’s set off."

The three got into the car. This car belonged to Titan, a top-of-the-line Hummer, akin to a lion, with an engine roar as loud as thunder, perfect for racing on mountainous roads.

Titan took hold of the steering wheel and floored the accelerator, and the Hummer shot out like an arrow, kicking up a wild wind that laid the roadside greenery flat on the ground.

The three drove on, and in about two hours, they reached the mountains at the edge of Zhonghai City, bordering Nan City and Jiangcheng.

Looking out, under the cover of night, the mountain range lay sprawling in darkness like a sleeping ancient giant, exuding a terrifying, daunting aura.

It was as though a primordial beast was lurking in the darkness, with its maw wide open and bloodthirsty gleam in its eyes, waiting for humans to fall into its trap.

"This black market has quite the taste for its location, heh, if it were an ordinary person, they probably wouldn’t dare to go in," Long Qie said with a laugh upon seeing it.

"Heh, it’s just a facade. Tonight, we’ll turn it upside down!" Titan pressed on the accelerator, and the Hummer roared and charged forward into the mountain path.

The mountainous trail was winding and narrow, with drastic twists and turns. To the left was a towering cliff, and to the right a deep ravine - extremely perilous. However, Titan showed no signs of slowing down, laughing heartily as the Hummer charged through the tight, twisting path with reckless abandon.

Soon enough, a vast valley appeared ahead.

Lights twinkled within the valley.

The mountain path led straight into the heart of the valley.

As Titan drove towards the valley, reaching the entrance, they encountered a massive steel gate, ten meters tall and firmly closed.

"That’s a huge gate," Titan exclaimed. He then hit the brakes and stopped in front of the steel behemoth.

Click, click, click!

At that moment, several piercing beams from searchlights shone on the Hummer, tearing through the darkness.

"Who are you?"

Suddenly, from above the steel gate, numerous dark gun barrels pointed toward the three men. Thereafter, an ice-cold voice, laden with intent to kill, inquired.

Clearly, if Xiao Zheng and his companions answered incorrectly, the gun barrels would unleash a torrent of steel, completely shredding them!
