Gege Ros was very angry. Although Nanyu was just one of his many lackeys, he couldn't help but feel a surge of rage at the fellow's death.
The main reason for his anger wasn't the lackey's death, but the opportunity it gave his archenemy, Rupert, to kick him while he was down.
Last night, only one of the assassins who came to probe the situation remained, and of all people, it had to be one of Rupert's men who survived. That simply should not have happened.
Because of this, Rupert had found the chance to mock him a few times. Gege Ros, who was always proud and aloof, naturally couldn't stand it, but since his strength was on par with Rupert's, he didn't want to start a war over this—it just wasn't worth it.
So, Gege Ros could only vent all his anger on those who killed his lackey, the "Wind, Rain, Thunder, and Lightning".
After entering the estate, Gege Ros was constantly searching. Chen Fengnan was no longer his primary target; after all, they had the place thoroughly surrounded, and Chen Fengnan couldn't escape even if he had wings. Gege Ros didn't mind and concentrated his main efforts on searching for "Wind, Rain, Thunder, and Lightning".
Finally, he spotted two different people. Compared to the guards who seemed utterly weak in Gege Ros's eyes, A-Lei and A-Feng were clearly distinct.
For someone like Gege Ros, it was obvious at a glance.
"Where is Chen Fengnan? If you hand him over to me, perhaps I will take you as one of my dogs and spare your lives."
Seeing that they didn't respond, Gege Ros once again spoke mockingly.
A-Feng was okay; having not sensed Gege Ros's approach earlier, he knew well of this man's strength and wasn't provoked at the moment, instead thinking about how to deal with him.
But A-Lei was different. Irritated by the mockery, he couldn't help but want to jump down and settle the score with Gege Ros, slap that guy a few times, and teach him not to talk nonsense.
"Don't be impulsive, this guy, along with several others, have extraordinary strength!"
A-Feng stretched out his hand to stop A-Lei, looking warily at Gege Ros and the several black-clad men by his side.
Compared to the regular Mingwang Pavilion warriors they had seen before, the vibe that Gege Ros and those black-clad men gave A-Feng was completely different: a chill presence and eyes like venomous snakes. Being stared at by those eyes, there was always a feeling of being devoured.
A bone-chilling sensation lingered, and without realizing it, A-Feng's spine had begun to sweat coldly—Gege Ros was decidedly dangerous!
A-Lei too realized that it was not the time to be impulsive. He gritted his teeth, unwillingly looked at Gege Ros, and really wished he could leap down and deal with Gege Ros and his men.
"Hmph, you dare barge in here with just a few men, don't know how to spell 'death', do ya!"
Since it wasn't advisable to take action rashly, A-Lei retorted defiantly.
Gege Ros's mouth curled into an even colder smile, his dark gaze fixating on A-Lei and A-Feng as he asked again, "I'm asking you, are you two of the Four King Kongs who stand by Chen Fengnan's side?"
A-Lei pointed at Gege Ros's nose, a mocking smile on his face.
Gege Ros looked at A-Lei with a chilly gaze. He was beginning to dis big guy—who gave him the courage to talk to him .
Although, compared to the other bodyguards in the room, A-Lei and A-Feng were on a different level, in Gege Ros's eyes, there wasn't much difference—they were just bigger ants.
"Big guy, you're going to regret this!"
Gege Ros laughed instead of getting angry, looking at A-Lei as if smiling yet not smiling.
A-Lei had been enduring Gege Ros for a long time. Seeing that he had agitated Gege Ros now, he became even more smugly triumphant, waving his fist.
"What are you guys chatting about, can I join in too, Gege Ros?"
Suddenly, a loud sound erupted, and the barricade at the main door was blown open. Rupert's figure appeared at the doorway, holding a person in his hand, and entered with a look of great interest on his face.
When A-Lei and A-Feng saw the person in Rupert's hands, they couldn't help but cry out.
In Rupert's hands was Adian, who was on his last breath, having suffered severe injuries.
"Oh, so you know this guy, huh? Sorry, sorry, I might have gone a bit too hard, but of course, I'm not going to return him to you. This is a gift for my friend!"
Rupert said with a smile full of malice, throwing Adian onto the ground and then grinning at Gege Ros.
"Gege Ros, I wonder if you gift?"
Rupert asked, ignoring the furious expressions of A-Lei and A-Feng at this moment.
As soon as Gege Ros had entered the estate, Rupert followed immediately after and then split up with his men to execute their own tasks.
It was during the clearing of the interior that he came upon Adian. Among the Rain, Thunder, Lightning, and Wind, Adian was the weakest in combat. If the four worked together, it would be fine, but in solo combat, Adian stood no chance against Rupert.
Defeating Adian didn't give Rupert any sense of accomplishment. If it weren't for the sake of annoying Gege Ros, he wouldn't even have left a survivor, let alone kindly brought the man over.
As expected, Gege Ros's complexion turned ugly. The "help" from his arch-rival was as pleasant as swallowing a fly.
Such an expression was incredibly amusing to Rupert, who began to feel grateful for having brought Adian with him.
A-Lei and Adian looked at Rupert with anger, so enraged they were speechless.
"Rupert, you did that on purpose, didn't you?"
The two from Mingwang Pavilion faced off against each other, completely disregarding the feelings of A-Lei and A-Feng, who were still present.
A flash of white light streaked past as a bullet was sliced in two.
"That was close, that was close, I thought I was a goner!"
Rupert patted his chest, a sense of lingering fear in his voice. He looked at Gege Ros, who had come to help, with some regret.
"Now I don't owe you anything."
Gege Ros sneered, he certainly wasn't going to owe Rupert a favor, even if Rupert had been capable of blocking the bullet just now.
"So, may I ask why the beautiful young lady upstairs is being so rude?"
Rupert's expression chilled as he glared angrily towards the upper floors at A-Yu behind the sniper rifle. She was the one who had taken the shot just now.
A-Yu clenched her teeth—she hadn't expected her shot to miss. She had waited a long time, ready to gamble it all on this one chance, yet she still failed!
Suddenly, the air froze as if solidified, and the entire hall fell dead silent.
