Chapter 356: Chapter 0356 Mission Failed

In the private room, only Chu Ge and Tang Haowan were left.

Tang Haowan looked at Chu Ge in some shock, "How did Mr. Chu persuade them?"

He was just here, but he didn’t hear what Chu Ge said to those people, and it didn’t take long before he saw them lay down their weapons.

He had seen many strange things in his days, but such a dreamlike scene as today was a first for him.

Just a moment ago they were facing danger, yet in no more than five minutes, Chu Ge had resolved it.

Chu Ge chuckled lightly, "It’s nothing, just used a little trick to control their minds."

Tang Haowan was stunned, once again updating his understanding of Chu Ge; he suddenly felt that this man, just over twenty years old, was very terrifying.

A person who could manipulate people’s minds with thoughts—how could he not be terrifying!

Chu Ge, seemingly seeing through what Tang Haowan was thinking, softly laughed and said, "Mr. Tang, rest assured, these little tricks are not something I would use on just anyone."

Tang Haowan was even more stunned, then he understood.

Isn’t he just an ordinary person? Besides, if Chu Ge really wanted to harm him, he wouldn’t have needed to save him from Ghost Gate.

Tang Haowan felt somewhat ashamed; had he just suspected Chu Ge would harm him? Truly, he had measured the heart of a gentleman with the mean measure of a villain!

Tang Haowan awkwardly chuckled. Living for most of his life, this was the first time he had shown such discourtesy in front of a younger man, truly losing all his old face.

"Old Master Tang, please wait here for a moment. I’ll go to greet Mr. Shen."

Chu Ge seemed to sense something and stood up to leave.

Tang Haowan was somewhat speechless. When did Shen Wei Qian get so close to Chu Ge?

Just as he was pondering, he suddenly heard a noisy commotion from outside.

At this time, downstairs.

Shen Wei Qian had just arrived at the entrance of Zuixian Inn when suddenly a group of black-clothed men rushed out from the door, startling him.

His driver immediately stepped forward to protect Shen Wei Qian, silently rebuking himself; he knew Tang Haowan wouldn’t harbor any good intentions! Only the Eldest Young Master was kind-hearted, believing this old man’s lies!

The driver, not being a professional bodyguard, stood in front of Shen Wei Qian, feeling a bit panicky as he saw so many people rushing out from inside.

However, what he didn’t expect was that just as those black-clothed men rushed out from the Zuixian Inn, another group of black-clothed men emerged from the shadows, surrounding Shen Wei Qian completely.

The driver was even more terrified and swallowed nervously, "Sir, what should we do now?"

Shen Wei Qian furrowed his brows as he looked at these people. Accustomed to navigating the world of martial arts for many years, he instantly felt the hostility from the newcomers.

He looked at the people expressionlessly and asked in a somewhat cold tone, "Who sent you?"

Those black-clothed men who had rushed out from inside the Zuixian Inn, upon seeing suddenly so many black-clothed men appear, paused for a moment, then as if thinking of something, scattered like startled birds.

Only the other two teams of black-clothed men looked at each other in confusion.

But at this moment, they couldn’t bother about that much, one of the Japanese awkwardly said in Chinese, "Shen Wei Qian, we are here to take your life!"

Shen Wei Qian raised his eyebrows, not intimidated by these people’s demeanor, but calmly asked, "Did Tang Haowan set up this ambush for me here?"

Shen Wei Qian appeared calm on the surface, but inside, he had already cursed Tang Haowan countless times.

At this moment, Tang Haowan, who was standing in front of the second-floor window watching the situation below, heard Shen Wei Qian’s words and was infuriated.

He clapped his hands angrily and cursed under his breath, "This old fossil! Am I that malevolent?"

"No matter who sent us, you’re definitely dying today!" the man said as he swiftly drew his knife and stabbed towards Shen Wei Qian.

The driver was nearly scared stiff, but his body’s instincts reacted swiftly. He forcefully pushed Shen Wei Qian to the side and quickly raised his foot, aiming to kick the man’s hand and send his knife flying.

However, the man was faster than the driver; the blade sliced through his arm, cutting through the fabric and blood began to seep out.

The bodyguard was stunned, not a professional but having studied Sanda for a few years, the kick he had just done was rarely dodged by anyone.

How did this person manage to avoid it?

While the driver was still dazed, the man charged again with the knife, giving him no chance to think.

In mere moments, the driver was laid out, with several cuts on his body, bleeding profusely.

Shen Wei Qian narrowed his eyes slightly. Causing a scene at the doorstep in broad daylight was meant to instill panic in the surroundings, even intending to create a bigger commotion.

This wasn’t Tang Haowan’s style.

"Who are you? You’re not sent by that old fossil Tang Haowan!" Shen Wei Qian had never encountered Ancient Martial Artists, nor did he know what a Ninja looked like; he had only seen it depicted in television, about how Japanese draw swords, but the movements of this man were somewhat different.

At this point, he couldn’t discern who these people really were.

He had spent his life in the business world, undoubtedly making enemies, but none would openly seek his life, as it would be counterproductive.

The kind of person who would stage such a grand spectacle to take his life... he really couldn’t think of anyone.

At this time, Tang Haowan upstairs was also deep in thought.

He had thought those black-clothed men were only targeting him, as he had more enemies than Shen Wei Qian.

But now that they wanted both his and Shen Wei Qian’s lives, what exactly were they trying to do?

As Tang Haowan was lost in thought, the men downstairs made their move again, this time directly targeting Shen Wei Qian.

Seeing this, Tang Haowan was shocked, a long-lost emotion rapidly surfacing in his heart.

Especially when he saw that Shen Wei Qian’s face, washed over by years, showed not a hint of fear, a passion that he hadn’t known was extinguished long ago was reignited.

He remembered, back when he and Shen Wei Qian ventured through the world of martial arts together, facing difficulties, Shen Wei Qian would often remain as unmoved as he was now.

But that was only facing difficulties, not a life-threatening crisis.

Unable to restrain himself, Tang Haowan opened the window and cursed, "Mr. Shen, you old fossil! That man is after your life! What are you still standing there trying to act cool for?"

Not only Shen Wei Qian, but even the black-clothed men were startled by this outburst.

The two leading Japanese turned to look towards Tang Haowan on the second floor, and when they saw Tang Haowan unharmed on the balcony, alarms went off in their heads— Yamamoto Yotetsu had failed the mission!

No wonder they couldn’t get in touch with Yamamoto Yotetsu, having initially thought the mission was accomplished when they saw those black-clothed men swiftly exiting the hall, so they had rushed out.

But now...

How exactly did Tang Haowan manage to defeat Yamamoto Yotetsu?
