Chapter 453: Like a Pawn, in His Palm
s, puffing on his cigarette.Mu Xing walked over and placed the rosewood tray on the desk. She took the cigarette from the man's fingertips and extinguished it in the ebony ashtray."Drink the porridge....A man in a black suit stood tall, facing the wind.
The waves of the sea churned in his vacant eyes, "Scatter and search!"
Yun Tuo immediately made the necessary arrangements.
Five minutes later, twenty helicopters took off simultaneously, fanning out in all directions at high speed. They skimmed over the azure sea surface before disappearing into the horizon where the sky met the sea.
The coast returned to calm.
Only the gentle lapping of waves against the rocks remained.
Yun Tuo retracted his gaze, glanced at the two thermoses slung across his chest, hesitated for a moment, took off one of them, unscrewed the lid, and handed it to the silent man standing there. "Mr. Fu, your medicine."
Actually, he was just giving it a try. After all, whether or not Mr. Fu takes medicine depends on his mood.
And now, Master Fu's mood is clearly very bad.
Unexpectedly, Grandpa Fu reached out and took it.
But he didn't drink, his long, pale fingers clutching the thermos, his raven-like eyelashes drooping slightly as if deep in thought.
After a long time, he finally brought the thermos to his lips.
The medicinal soup went down in one gulp, bitterness spreading from the tip of his tongue to his heart. "Call Shen Lue over," he said.
-
Above the vast expanse of the sea.
A helicopter, as if trapped by an invisible mysterious force, no matter how it flies, is always in the same area.
In the cockpit, Zhuang Ji's face was cold and stern.
He was following that little girl, and everything went smoothly all the way until he got here. The little girl suddenly vanished, but he inexplicably found himself trapped here.
He had tried every trick he knew, but still couldn't fly out. Even now, he was completely lost.
It's really strange!
Just when he was at his wit's end, a helicopter suddenly appeared in the distance and flew towards him.
Zhuang Ji tried to fly towards the helicopter, but as soon as he reached the edge of this area, the helicopter automatically veered off course, and the helicopter was incredibly fast, closing the distance rapidly.
The instant Zhuang Ji got a clear look at the helicopter, his brows furrowed involuntarily.
It's actually the young master of the Shen family!
For the past three years, he has been frantically searching for the Black Zone base. Once found, no one is spared.
Zhuang Ji believed he was already cold-blooded enough, but seeing the base he had slaughtered with his own eyes still made him feel a chill down his spine. The annihilation of humanity, the brutality of that scene, could not be described even as human purgatory.
The Black Domain also suffered heavy losses because of him.
What a terrifying opponent!
And Shen Lue also recognized that the helicopter opposite him belonged to Heiyu.
He was called over to the Dark Domain base by Old Master Fu. The killing intent hadn't subsided, his brown eyes were filled with crimson. If it wasn't for going to find Little Star, he would have rushed in directly!
We can't mess around, finding the little star is the most important thing right now!
Shen Yue took a deep breath, controlled his emotions, and pressed the button on the control panel.
A shell was fired, hurtling towards Zhuang Ji's helicopter.
Zhuang Ji immediately changed direction to dodge, but was still hit in the tail fin.
Stability was compromised, the helicopter lost balance, and began to swing back and forth.
Shen Lue shot another missile, this time directly hitting the propeller. The helicopter plunged into the sea. He coldly glanced at it, then continued driving the helicopter forward, but discovered that it was veering off course uncontrollably...
-
Worriless Island.
Mu Xing leaned against the window, her slender fingers delicately nibbling on a compressed biscuit.
Appearing languid and nonchalant, he was in fact carefully observing the surroundings of the castle.
"Knock knock."
The door was suddenly knocked on. Qiao Daishan called out at the door, “Xing’er, it's time for dinner.”
Mu Xing impatiently furrowed her brow. From yesterday until now, even though she refused each time, Qiao Daishan still unfailingly cooked and called her to eat. What was wrong with him!
"I'm not hungry."
She refused again.
I thought Qiao Daishan would leave silently like the previous times. The next second, I heard his slow voice: "Xing'er has never kept her promise, so can't I break mine either"
Mu Xing's lazy brows instantly flashed with a chill.
With a sudden jerk of his hand, the compressed biscuit was hurled outward with immense force, striking the figure concealed in the shadows and sending it crashing to the ground.
She past open the door, raising a fake smile. “Dinner’s ready,”
There were only five dishes on the table, but each one was Mu Xing's favorite.
Well-intentioned, but not with good intentions.
Mu Xing sneered in her heart.
His eyes couldn't help but flash with a hint of mockery and disdain.
Qiao Daishan first clearly realized that, the eyes that were always full of tenderness and intoxication, when they didn't want to be affectionate, were truly terrifyingly cold.
His smile at the corner of his mouth still lingered, but the amusement in his eyes gradually faded away. "Don't worry, Xing'er, I didn't drug you."
Being able to speak so frankly, Mu Xing knew that these dishes were indeed fine, but this did not allow her to relax. Qiao Daishan was deep-minded and had many means. She had to be constantly vigilant.
After dinner, Qiao Daishan set up a chessboard in the living room again. "Xing'er, let's play chess," he said.
Mu Xing directly refused: "I won't."
Qiao Daishan sat on the sofa, his dark eyes smiling as he looked at her, "I don't mind teaching Xing'er again."
"..."
Mu Xing reluctantly sat down opposite him.
The two quickly engaged in a fierce battle on the chessboard.
The man sat in the backlight, his figure tall and straight. His black eyes were slightly lowered as he looked down at the chessboard, like a god looking down on mortals from above. He exuded an aura of being in control of everything.
Mu Xing's lingering gaze landed on him, and inexplicably, she felt like she was also a piece on this chessboard.
-
Finally, I have made it through the last two days.
Mu Xing was just about to urge Qiao Daishan to keep his promise when he arrived first, “Xing’er, I have returned everything as promised, and your senior brother has also been sent home.”
Mu Xing looked at him suspiciously, "How do you prove you're not lying to me"
Qiao Daishan's eyes showed no evasion, "There's no need for me to lie to you, Xing'er. If I really wanted to do something, it would be as simple as snapping my fingers."
This, Mu Xing knows all too well. It's like he never leaves his island yet manages to hold her in the palm of his hand.
She really couldn't understand how a man in his twenties could possibly possess such immense power.
For the first time, she questioned Joe's identity.
But she currently had no interest in investigating. If all went well, Chihi would be coming over tomorrow, and she should start making preparations to leave.

Country Y.
Jiang Yan awoke from a jolting ride, feeling himself being carried on someone's shoulders at a frantic pace.
His memory was still stuck on the moment he went to look for Xiaoyan, when they were suddenly attacked on the way.
He was currently unclear about the situation, and his eyes were covered while his limbs were bound. This situation was clearly not conducive to fighting back, so he chose to remain still.
He was quickly thrown to the ground.
With his hands unbound, he immediately lunged at the person crouched before him, following his instincts. The other person was incredibly skilled; despite being caught off guard, they effortlessly dodged his attack.
Jiang Yan quickly pulled off her eye mask, only to see a black corner of clothing disappear around the corner.
He untied the rope on his feet and ran after her. Just as he entered the hallway, a petite figure suddenly stumbled towards him.
He didn't have time to think, instinctively reaching out to catch the person.
The immense force sent him staggering backwards several steps. He barely managed to steady himself, lowering his head to look down and discovered that he was holding a girl!
And at this moment, the girl was leaning against him with perfect composure, winking at him, "Hello there, Brother Gu Dabao's senior!"
Lord Fu's max-level little sweetheart is super fierce when fighting.w!""Alas, I've finished speaking."Fu Lingxiao curled his lips into a faint smile, got up and left, "Leaving."Watching his figure disappear in the doorway, his footsteps fading away until they were ina...
