The Bodyguard King’s CEO Wife
Chapter 303 - 303 303 The Past of Nightmare

303: Chapter 303: The Past of Nightmare 303: Chapter 303: The Past of Nightmare “A wise decision, my Eldest Young Master.” Wu Ke revealed a smile, though behind the smile lurked a trace of sinister intent.

“In that case, you must have a plan.” Wu Zijian contemplated deeply before choosing to agree.

Wu Ke’s fifteen percent of shares held the power to decide success or failure when necessary.

If he didn’t agree, Wu Ke would likely offer support to Wu Yu.

“Of course, I’ll share it with you.” Wu Ke glanced around and spoke in a low voice.

……

Hong Kong, a villa, Netherworld Palace stronghold.

“Worm, have you managed to gather the information I asked for?” Since Nightmare had been captured, a day and a half had passed, yet the people of Netherworld Palace were still at a loss, until today…

“I finally found it, Boss, you have no idea how much effort it took to sneak into Hong Kong’s security department’s database to retrieve the information…”

“Enough with the talk, send over the information right now,” Ye Shikai cut in without delay.

“Alright, no problem.

Boss, you’ll definitely be shocked when you see it,” Worm said.

As soon as his words finished, a file was received on Ye Shikai’s computer.

Projecting the file, everyone gathered to watch.

The few pages of the file were quickly flipped through, leaving everyone with an expression as if they had eaten a fly, followed by complete silence.

After half an hour, they replayed the information…

They still couldn’t believe it.

“Master, how could Nightmare have been part of the Tomb Spirit Organization before?” Finally, Demoness’s words broke the deadlock.

Ye Shikai’s face was grim; after seeing this information, he was probably the one most shocked.

Tomb Spirit Organization, consisting of Refining Mo, Rong Yuan, Illusion Fox, Star Lian, and Te Que, was active around Hong Kong five years prior, primarily involved in assassinations.

They were often employed by tycoons and nobles to kill their enemies, shrouded in secrecy and mystery.

Hong Kong’s security department had carried out multiple arrests, all ending in failure, even with assistance from the mainland’s National Security Bureau, but to little avail.

Until, five years ago, Hong Kong’s security department received an anonymous tip that the Tomb Spirit Organization was going to attack the Hong Kong biological laboratory that very night to steal secret information.

With the security department and National Security Bureau working together, the laboratory was quickly turned into a fortress with relaxed external security but tight internal defenses.

From Hong Kong’s side, the SAD special forces were also deployed, an elite unit on par with the mainland’s Dragon Teeth special combat team.

That night, the Tomb Spirit Organization indeed “arrived on time,” and after a fierce battle, two members, Star Lian and Te Que, were reported dead.

Oddly, only Te Que’s body was recovered at the scene.

After scrutinizing the laboratory’s nearby surveillance, it was confirmed that only three people escaped, leading superiors to surmise that Star Lian must have died in combat, his body too damaged to be recovered.

However, the photo of Star Lian on the information in front of them was unmistakably recognized by everyone as Nightmare.

This explained why Star Lian’s body was never found at the scene – he had never died.

He had changed his name to Nightmare, began to make his way in the Underworld, and ultimately joined Netherworld Palace.

“Bang.” Suddenly, a large hole appeared in the smooth wall, startling everyone.

“I don’t care who he was before; all I know is he’s now Nightmare, my brother,” Ye Shikai said sternly, wiping the dust off his fist.

That hole in the wall had been made by his own punch.

“He’s in danger now; we must rescue him,” Ye Shikai’s tone intensified.

“Ding-a-ling.” At that moment, Ye Shikai’s mobile phone suddenly rang with a number he had never seen before.

“Hello, who is this?” Ye Shikai casually answered, speaking indifferently.

“Master, it’s…

me.” A very weak voice came through the phone, but upon hearing it, Ye Shikai’s expression turned excited.

“Nightmare, where are you?” Ye Shikai instantly recognized the voice – it was Nightmare, who had been captured.

There were so many things Ye Shikai wanted to say all at once.

“I don’t know, seems like a basement…” Nightmare’s words were cut off by the drone of a disconnected line.

“Hello, Nightmare, keep talking,” Ye Shikai yelled, realizing the call had ended.

Disheartened, he tossed the phone onto the desk as everyone gathered around.

“Ha-ha, Boss, I’ve just successfully traced the location of that call,” Worm’s smug voice came from the landline, “I’ll send over the location now.”

Hearing this, hope was rekindled in everyone’s hearts.

With the location from the phone, they could find Nightmare.

“Nice work, Worm, locating it in just ten seconds,” said Ailina with a smile.

Quickly, a map of Hong Kong was projected onto the wall, and at the center, there was a small red dot.

…

Hong Kong, a hidden basement.

In the meantime, Nightmare lay powerlessly on the ground.

Seizing the moment when Illusion Fox wasn’t looking, he struggled with great effort to break free from the iron chains binding him, only to collapse upon touching the floor.

With severe injuries and without strength in his Inner Strength, Nightmare painfully shuffled to a phone ten meters away.

He had barely dialed the number and said a few words when a cold, pretty face appeared in front of him.

“Injured like this and you still managed to crawl so far,” Illusion Fox said casually, easily subduing Nightmare with one hand and pressing the end call button with her delicate fingers.

“Since you’re not staying put even while down, let’s make you suffer a bit,” Illusion Fox said as she lifted Nightmare with her Inner Strength.

Despite her slender appearance, she could effortlessly lift a grown man.

She took Nightmare to a wooden frame, shackled him, and suspended him from it.

“Do you think…

this will do any good?

The Netherworld King…

will be here soon.” Nightmare was now utterly drained, his body dangling weakly as he used his last bit of strength to lift his head and look up at the woman in front of him.

“Snap.” A clear sound as Nightmare’s clothes tore open, revealing fresh blood seeping out.

Illusion Fox yanked on the whip in her hand, her eyes filled with a resolute expression.

“Snap.” Another strike of the whip, and Illusion Fox seemed hesitant, but she eventually laid it down.

“Do you know why you were able to break free from the chains?

It’s because when you were unconscious, I deliberately loosened them,” Illusion Fox bent down, holding Nightmare’s chin in her hand.

“You, you did it on purpose.” Suddenly, as if realizing something, Nightmare’s face contorted with a ferocious look, he struggled with all his might to break free.
