"Shall we go?"

One of the two mercenaries being pointed at looked at the man and asked.

"Who else could it be but you?" John glared at him and snapped.

Unexpectedly, after coming out, his subordinates had all become disobedient. He secretly thought to himself that he would definitely teach them a lesson when he got back.

"Hurry up, what are you dawdling for?"

Roy walked over, kicked him, and cursed.

The two mercenaries had no choice but to walk towards Luo Chen and his group. The distance wasn't far, only a little over a hundred meters.

All these two people need to do is go and check it out, provided, of course, that they don't get killed by Luo Chen.

Meanwhile, Mu Shanhai led Mu Shiyu and Jiang Xian'er toward the mountain path behind them. Fortunately, there were not many disturbances along the way, and they made very fast progress.

After going through so much, the two girls had become accustomed to mountain climbing, as it was something they had developed through practice.

"Father, let's go around that place. There seems to be a small path there that can take us around to the highway. That way, they won't be able to spot us easily." Mu Shiyu said, supporting her back, panting heavily, with a light sheen of sweat slowly trickling down her face, pointing to a thorny path in the distance.

Upon hearing this, Mu Shanhai glanced over and realized that this made sense.

“Alright, let’s go straight there. Be careful, Shiyu, take Xian’er with you.” Mu Shanhai nodded in response and then took the lead in clearing the way.

Jiang Xian'er followed behind Mu Shiyu. It has to be said that this mountain path was indeed a considerable challenge for the two girls.

"hiss!"

After walking for a short while, Jiang Xian'er called out softly, and her body swayed. If Mu Shiyu hadn't turned around and helped her up, she would have almost rolled down the hillside.

"Xian'er, what's wrong?"

Mu Shiyu hurriedly asked, noticing that Jiang Xian'er's complexion was not good. Could she be sick?

"I, I'm fine." Jiang Xian'er seemed a little guilty. After all, everyone was on the road, and if Wu Hao caught up with her because of an accident, it would be bad.

"Are you alright? Xian'er, are you sure? Are you sick?" Mu Shiyu frowned, reached out and placed her hand on Jiang Xian'er's forehead, but didn't feel that it was very hot.

Isn't he sick?

"My legs feel like they can't move anymore, I must be tired from walking." Jiang Xian'er lowered her head and kept rubbing her hands together.

"Let me see." Mu Shiyu gestured for Jiang Xian'er to sit down, then made her take off her shoes. Her eyes widened instantly, and she was shocked by what she saw.

"Your skin is all swollen, why didn't you say so?" Mu Shiyu was a little angry. If it hadn't been discovered early, it would have been completely ruined if she had walked any further.

"Father, what should we do?"

Mu Shanhai glanced at it and realized that the problem was indeed quite serious. If Jiang Xian'er continued walking, it would probably get even worse.

“I’ll carry him on my back and we’ll continue on our way.”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xian'er lowered her head even further, her eyes darting around in tears.

"Don't worry, it's okay."

Mu Shanhai carried Jiang Xian'er on his back and turned to continue running along the path ahead.

Fortunately, Wu Hao and his group didn't arrive at this time, but it still took up a lot of their time.

This slowed down their journey...

"Damn it, where did they go? Where the hell are they?"

Wu Hao climbed over a small hill and looked at the several forests in front of him, but there was not a single person in sight. He immediately roared in anger.

At this point, they still haven't found any trace of Mu Shanhai and the others. It's simply outrageous. To them, this is tantamount to saying that they are all good-for-nothings.

"Boss, they didn't come from here? That's impossible, there's clearly no other way." Lina comforted her from the side, also frowning, unable to understand why Mu Shanhai and the others had disappeared in the blink of an eye.

But at this point, they had no time to think it over and could only continue walking forward.

"Hurry up and find them! We must find them, otherwise if Xiao and his gang come up here, we'll be in deep trouble. Don't you all understand?" Wu Hao roared at his teammates.

With an angry expression on his face, Wu Hao looked at a mountain, then thought of the situation below, and felt very uneasy.

He had already gone all in; if they caught up with him, he wouldn't have much of a chance of survival.

"Boss, there's a path here, it looks like someone's been here before."

A mercenary, standing about twenty meters away from Wu Hao, shouted at him.

"Hmm?" Wu Hao looked over, his previously unpleasant expression instantly turning to joy, and exclaimed, "Let me see."

He then hurriedly ran over, looked at the road in front of him and laughed loudly, "It's definitely them! Quick, chase after them, they can't have gone far."

They finally found a trail. As long as they could capture Mu Shanhai, they could leave.

As for John and Xiao, they can all get the hell out of here.

But at that moment, several gunshots rang out in the mountains and forests.

Wu Hao's eyes widened, and his heart raced. Had they caught up with him?

“There’s no other way, Lina. I’ll take some men and go after them. You leave a few men here to guard the area.”

“But, Brother Hao, you…” Lina’s eyes flashed with surprise, as if she hadn’t expected Wu Hao to make such a choice, actually letting her stay.

Aren't you taking me with you?

Upon hearing this, Wu Hao looked at the woman who had been with him for many years. He did feel a little reluctant to part with her, but he was more driven by his desire for life and the money he dreamed of.

He needed someone to help him stop this group of people, and he definitely didn't want Xiao and the others to catch up at this time. The hatred between them was quite intense, and if he were to be killed by accident, everything that belonged to Wu Hao would be over.

Women? Women were nothing more than playthings he used to comfort his body.

In Wu Hao's mind, women have never been that important; he only ever used them to empower himself.

"Lina, don't worry, they won't do anything to you. Once I catch Mu Shanhai, I will definitely come back for you. Even if you catch him then, I will still have Mu Shanhai in my hands. Can't I just use him to exchange for you?"

Wu Hao placed his hands on Lina's shoulders, gazed at her tenderly, and said affectionately, "In my life, Wu Hao, there has only been one woman, and that is you. You have helped me so much, and you have watched me get to where I am today step by step. You must also hope that I can continue to do so, right?"

"Lina, believe me, as soon as I capture Mu Shanhai this time, I will come and exchange him for you. After that, we will run away together and we won't have to worry about anything else."

Faced with Wu Hao's sweet words, Lina's eyes gradually changed, and tears welled up in them.

Looking into Wu Hao's affectionate eyes, Lina nodded heavily.

"You must come back to me. I'll buy you some time. You have to promise me."

Wu Hao nodded slightly, then turned and left.

When he turned around, the deep affection on his face vanished instantly; it was all just a pretense.

That's how he's made Lina willingly help Wu Hao with his work all these years, hasn't that been what he's been doing all these years?

When important guests arrive at the rest stop, Wu Hao will have Lina go out to greet them...

"You piece of trash, why should I wait for you? You're just my dog, yet you think you're being affectionate? You're just out of your mind."

Wu Hao silently gave Lina his evaluation in his heart.

After Wu Hao and his group left, Xiao Wu and the others followed.

"Brother Wu, look! There seems to be a figure over there?"

Mia pointed in the direction of Lina and the others and said urgently.

"That's right, it's them! Hurry up and catch up!" Xiao Wu shouted, yelling to Mike and the others behind him, "Mike, over here, quick!"

And just as Xiao Wu and his men were about to charge forward.

Da da da!

They were immediately met with resistance, and Lina and several others opened fire on Xiao Wu and his group.

Bang!

"careful!"

Xiao Wu lunged at Mia, and the explosion of the grenade instantly kicked up a cloud of dust.

"Are you alright?" Xiao Wu asked, looking at Mia, who was pinned beneath him.

"It's nothing!" Mia shook her head and patted the dust off her head.

Xiao Wu was a little angry and scolded Mia, "Can't you be a little more careful? Don't be so reckless. If you just rush in like that, you'll get killed if you're not careful. Do you think this is a game with a chance to revive?"

Faced with Xiao Wu's scolding, Mia nodded sheepishly, "I know."

"Mike, be careful, they have bombs." Xiao Wu warned Mike on his left, then whispered, "Damn Wu Hao, this guy has good stuff but never shares it with us, and now he's actually using it on us."

"Be careful, don't rush in like that. Fighting requires strategy, understand?"

Xiao Wu then observed the terrain. They were currently at the bottom, and this kind of battle was indeed very difficult to handle; there was no way around it.

They were attacking from above. Lina and her team had such a good view that if a heavy machine gun were mounted up there, Xiao Wu and his group would never be able to get up.

There's absolutely no chance left.

"Mike, you go up from that side. There are two on our left and three on our right. Let's go together." Xiao Wu estimated the location of the gunshots and then knew their exact position.

With the corresponding location information, the processing becomes much simpler.

"No problem, these kids are still too green."

Mike scoffed, completely disregarding Wu Hao's team members and not believing that these few people could stop them.

After saying that, Mike led his men up quietly.

"Left wing, right wing, you two take charge of the left wing, I'll go distract them."

Mike chose to take the initiative, intending to create opportunities for his teammates.
