174: Chapter 174 Splitting Forces Three Ways to Battle a Powerful Enemy 174: Chapter 174 Splitting Forces Three Ways to Battle a Powerful Enemy Xiang Yu, holding the phone, suddenly heard a different person speaking.

This person spoke with a commanding tone, full of vigor; he was likely the arms dealer.

“Is Xinglong with you?” the man asked calmly.

“Who are you?

Acting all important like that, if it’s nothing, I’m hanging up,” Xiang Yu said.

“It doesn’t matter who I am.

If you don’t send him back right now, I will wipe you out, including all your family members, friends,” the man threatened.

“I won’t release him,” Xiang Yu said calmly, unaffected by his threat.

The two of them talked for quite a while, and the gist was this: Release the man and there will be no problem; if you don’t, I’ll destroy your entire family.

Xiang Yu, on the other hand, acted completely nonchalant, almost driving the other person mad with frustration.

Eventually, they reached a consensus.

They would exchange Ning Xiaolu for Ding Xinglong, at an abandoned chemical plant on the outskirts, at eleven o’clock at night.

Shi Jian checked the time—it was already six o’clock in the evening.

It seemed their previous plans had fallen through.

“I’m going to gather everyone,” Shi Jian said as he stood up, having heard the entire phone call between Xiang Yu and the other party.

Moreover, Xiang Yu had firmly stated that they would meet at the location without fail that night.

“Shi Jian, have someone keep an eye on their movements.

Proceed with the original plan,” Xiang Yu instructed succinctly.

Upon hearing this, Shi Jian paused and asked, “Didn’t we agree to meet at the abandoned chemical plant and settle things there?”

“Just playing games with them, don’t take it seriously.

I think they also have no intention of sincerely exchanging hostages.

Xiaolu is probably still at the hotel,” Xiang Yu said simply.

Shi Jian and the others were speechless.

Xiang Yu was not one to play by the rules; anyone who encountered an opponent like him could only chalk it up to bad luck.

While they were discussing the situation, Shi Jian’s phone suddenly rang.

Someone reported to him that many people had emerged from the hotel, then got into cars and left, with Ding Yongzhi among them.

“They must be setting up an ambush,” Shi Jian said, checking the time.

It was only a little past eight o’clock.

“Bro Yu, let me take some people and have a fight with them,” Tie Zhuzi grew restless and then stood up to speak anxiously.

“Don’t rush, wait a little longer,” Xiang Yu said calmly, leaning back on the sofa with his eyes closed, thinking.

He had developed a habit of running through everything like a movie in his mind before acting, to ensure that all was in order.

After a while, he went aside to make a call, and then continued to lean on the sofa with his eyes closed.

Around nine-thirty at night, Xiang Yu suddenly opened his eyes and said, “Notify Long Zaitian and his team to get ready for action.

Zhuzi, you go and join Long Zaitian; he knows what to do.”

Xiang Yu turned his head to Shi Jian and said, “You go to the chemical plant and keep an eye on things, but don’t act under any circumstances.”

“Long Wu, Ouyang Xiu, you two come with me,” Xiang Yu ordered, and after speaking, he changed into a more comfortable outfit to set out.

“Xiang Yu!” Shi Jian suddenly looked at Xiang Yu and asked, “Are you going to the hotel?”

Xiang Yu nodded, his eyes filled with determination.

“Be careful,” Shi Jian wanted to dissuade Xiang Yu, but he stopped himself, knowing it would be useless.

Xiang Yu had made up his mind and wouldn’t easily change his plan.

“Move out!” Xiang Yu shouted, then headed outside.

Xiang Yu drove the car, accompanied by Long Wu and Ouyang Xiu.

Long Wu had exceptional combat skills and had experienced real combat.

Although Ouyang Xiu was also skilled in martial arts, he had never taken part in such activities, so he was inevitably a bit nervous.

He didn’t know what was going to happen shortly and felt very apprehensive.

“Are we going to kill someone?” Ouyang Xiu asked somewhat nervously.

Xiang Yu smiled and said, “Yes, but don’t worry, the people we are going to kill deserve it.

Don’t bear any psychological burden.”

Ouyang Xiu nodded blankly.

Thinking back on his past life and looking at his present situation, he felt as if he were dreaming.

He used to be a high and mighty young master, his days filled with nothing but eating, drinking, and merrymaking, believing that was what a person’s life should be like.

Back then, he never imagined there was another side to society.

On this other side, few people knew that they lived in darkness, enduring days filled with iron and blood.

As he looked out at the bustling streets full of traffic, Ouyang Xiu felt somewhat lost.

Xiang Yu led the two men right into the Xinglong Hotel, out in the open.

The security guards and the waitstaff there all recognized Xiang Yu; they simply smiled and nodded when they saw him enter, with none stepping forward to stop him.

The three of them also smoothly entered the elevator and went up to Ding Yongzhi’s office on the top floor.

The office was empty, and even Long Wu gave Xiang Yu a doubtful look, not knowing what he was there for.

Xiang Yu walked into the large office, heading to a small room inside.

This small room had a dedicated elevator that went down two levels underground.

Xiang Yu entered without hesitation, leaving Long Wu and the others thinking that Xiang Yu was the true owner of the place.

“The blueprints are very detailed,” Xiang Yu said calmly, seeing the puzzled looks on their faces.

As the elevator descended level by level, Xiang Yu looked at them seriously and said, “Be careful, there might be guards inside.”

Long Wu nodded coldly and took out a handgun to check it.

Ouyang Xiu didn’t have any weapons in his hands; he just gave a wry smile and said nothing.

Seeing this, Long Wu gave him a scornful look as if to say, why didn’t you mention you were unarmed earlier.

Long Wu tossed one of the handguns to Ouyang Xiu and didn’t give him another glance.

Ouyang Xiu quickly caught it, his hand grasping the gun trembling slightly.

He had fired guns before, and his shooting was quite good, but that was all at the shooting range; he had never shot a living creature.

Now that he was about to fight against people, he was somewhat daunted.

“Don’t be nervous,” Xiang Yu said, patting his shoulder and smiling.

Just then, the display above the elevator indicated they had reached the second level underground; the first level underground was likely the parking garage.

As the elevator doors opened, Xiang Yu stepped out first.

The area was quite spacious and brightly lit.

At that moment, two people happened to walk toward the elevator entrance.

At the sight of Xiang Yu, they were briefly stunned.

These three men in front of them were strangers.

By the time they realized what was happening, it was already too late.

A dagger appeared in Xiang Yu’s hand and with a swift slice in front of them, he ended their lives.

But before they died, they managed to fire a burst from their rifles.

Although they didn’t hit Xiang Yu and his team, the shots made a loud noise.

Seven people ahead, upon hearing the gunfire, all holding guns, cautiously moved in their direction.

From their steps and their poised attitude in the face of danger, it was clear they had undergone professional training.

Xiang Yu and Long Wu realized they had been exposed and quickly hid behind some columns, while Ouyang Xiu stood there, stunned, looking at the two men on the ground still bleeding from their necks…
