Chapter 440 - 440 440 Tense Undercover

440: Chapter 440: Tense Undercover 440: Chapter 440: Tense Undercover Hearing Xiang Yu say he was good at fighting, the man suddenly laughed.

Considering how clean and delicate Xiang Yu appeared, it didn’t seem like he could be involved in a fight.

“When it comes to fighting, that’s something Brother Chuan excels at.

I guess even three of me wouldn’t be a match for him,” the man said with admiration and glanced at the rockery in the distance.

“Are they behind the rockery?” Xiang Yu asked casually.

The man nodded blankly, then suddenly looked intently at Xiang Yu and asked, “Why are you asking so many questions?”

Xiang Yu chuckled, then without warning, grabbed the man’s head and slammed it hard against the rockery.

The man only had a moment of surprise before he was knocked unconscious.

“Now do you know I can fight?” Xiang Yu said to the man, then dragged him into an empty pond and left him by the side.

Now Xiang Yu was even more certain of one thing: Tie Sanjiang was behind the rockery in the water pond.

What he needed to do now was figure out how to approach the rockery.

It was entirely surrounded by Tie Sanjiang’s brothers; it was impossible for him to get close.

Besides, Zhang Xiaochuan, who knew him, was there, so blending in was not an option.

“What should I do?” This was the problem Xiang Yu needed to solve most urgently.

He thought of Zhang Han, whom he could ask for help with and then find a way to pull Zhang Xiaochuan away.

But he hadn’t had much contact with Zhang Han and didn’t really know the man.

At such a critical moment, he couldn’t afford to bet on someone he didn’t understand.

Moreover, time was pressing.

If Xiang Yu didn’t act soon, it could lead to unexpected consequences.

As Xiang Yu pondered his next move, he edged closer to the rockery.

It was surrounded by Tie Sanjiang’s brothers, and those who could stand guard there were certainly his trusted subordinates.

Every step he took now had to be careful.

The closer he got to the rockery, the more distinct the sound of a woman’s moans became.

It was a sound he recognized all too well—it was Zheng Qingxia’s voice.

He had heard it clearly the night before last.

But today’s cries were different from that night’s.

Although loud, Xiang Yu sensed something was off; the voice didn’t seem to contain any joy.

Hearing Zheng Qingxia’s moans, Xiang Yu suddenly felt a wave of discomfort, as if something of his had been stolen, although, in reality, it was he who had taken something from someone else.

After all, Zheng Qingxia was Tie Sanjiang’s wife, and Xiang Yu sleeping with her meant he had cuckolded Tie Sanjiang.

Xiang Yu shook his head, trying to clear it of such thoughts, and focused on figuring out how he could infiltrate the area.

That’s when he suddenly spotted Zhang Xiaochuan.

Zhang Xiaochuan’s eagle-like eyes began scanning the surroundings.

Xiang Yu quickly held his breath and hid.

It was clear that Zhang Xiaochuan was not like the others; he had a sharp sense of judgment.

For an instant, he had felt someone lurking in the shadows, and then walked over in this direction.

But when he arrived, he found no one there.

“Could it have been an illusion?” Zhang Xiaochuan reluctantly shook his head and walked away.

At that moment, Xiang Yu felt relieved.

Luckily, he had hidden quickly, otherwise, he might have been discovered just now.

“Everyone keep a sharp lookout.

If anyone dares to approach, take them down immediately,” Zhang Xiaochuan called out.

Xiang Yu walked around the perimeter of the rockery for a while and found no angle to approach from.

He tried to remain calm, thinking that if he had a rocket launcher, he could easily solve the problem with a single shot.

But he was alone, without any weapons, not even the dagger he normally carried with him.

This greatly affected his assassination plan.

However, Xiang Yu didn’t give up.

He kept observing everything around him.

Suddenly, he noticed that the large rockery connected with another smaller rockery.

Xiang Yu could have easily climbed over the small rockery and then entered from above.

Having discovered these options, Xiang Yu felt a wave of excitement course through his entire body.

The moaning from inside continued unabated, Tie Sanjiang was certainly working hard at his endeavors, and at such time when his attention was most focused, it was the perfect opportunity for Xiang Yu to make his move.

Xiang Yu cautiously moved to the perimeter, reached the side of the small rockery, and then prepared to climb up.

During this process, he had to make sure nobody saw him; if anyone caught sight of Xiang Yu in this act, they would most certainly take him for an assassin and put an end to him.

Just as Xiang Yu was about to commence climbing, someone entered in a hurry.

Xiang Yu was startled and quickly hid himself away.

The man, in a great rush, entered and after swiftly ensuring there was no one else around, he hurriedly pulled down his trousers and began to stroke himself quickly with his hand.

Xiang Yu watched from the shadows, unable to help but inwardly sigh.

Zheng Qingxia’s moans were too enticing, even the brother outside couldn’t withstand them.

It only took a few minutes for the man to surrender, then with an appearance of great enjoyment, he pulled up his trousers and walked out.

Xiang Yu couldn’t help but remark internally, what a quick shooter this lad was.

Seeing the man leave, Xiang Yu listened carefully for a while to make sure no one else was coming in, and then he climbed up.

The rockery was not tall, and Xiang Yu scaled it in no time.

There was a connection point here leading to the larger rockery in front, and Xiang Yu could climb across it.

The trouble was that there was no cover when crossing the connection point, making it easy to be spotted by people below.

Xiang Yu thus hid above, carefully observing his surroundings, waiting for his chance; the moment the people below showed the slightest lapses in attention, he would rush over.

Yet those below were as vigilant as machines, relentlessly scanning their surroundings.

Especially that quick shooter who had just relieved himself, he was now particularly alert.

Xiang Yu couldn’t help but curse silently, what a bunch of dogs these were.

While Xiang Yu hid above, finding himself somewhat at a loss, Zhang Xiaochuan suddenly appeared below.

Seeing everyone on high alert, he was quite pleased.

He then addressed the people, “I’m leaving for a bit; you all keep a sharp watch for me.

If anything unexpected happens, I’ll have your heads.”

The men hastily acknowledged and assured Zhang Xiaochuan they would be vigilant.

Pleased, Zhang Xiaochuan nodded and then walked towards the distance.

His direction was exactly where Xiang Yu was being held.

He had a nagging feeling that there was something off about Xiang Yu earlier.

With a single punch, he had caused Xiang Yu to tremble all over.

Theoretically, this wasn’t a normal reaction; his punch, while powerful, wasn’t that devastating.

Even if it landed on a woman, it wouldn’t cause such pain, let alone on a rather sturdy man like Xiang Yu seemed to be.

At first, Zhang Xiaochuan didn’t think much of it, but the more he thought about it, the more it seemed inappropriate.

Therefore, he decided to go have a look and find out what was going on with the man claiming to be Xiang Mao.

When Zhang Xiaochuan appeared, Xiang Yu didn’t dare to show himself.

Only after hearing that he had departed did Xiang Yu stealthily look outside.

Seeing the direction Zhang Xiaochuan was heading, Xiang Yu knew he must be going to check on him.

Time was of the essence now.

If Zhang Xiaochuan discovered that Xiang Yu had killed his three brothers, it would be too late for anything.

Hiding above and looking down, Xiang Yu could see the four men below on high alert.

Under the pressure of time, Xiang Yu could no longer avoid taking risks; he had to act swiftly and decisively…
