Hua Yuhe also wanted to be her own master and not be controlled by others. When she was carefully looking for an opportunity, she actually found one!

She discovered that Wu Tongling, who held a very high position in the martial arts world, was willing to be driven by Nanfang Nan for a secret manual, which showed that the manual was extraordinary. Thus, she had the idea of ​​taking it for herself.

While appeasing the two men, he secretly ordered Guan Hu to eliminate Wang Fengyang's family, who had come to Longyang Town. However, Lan Yamei intervened, disrupting the course of events.

As a result, Hua Yuhe developed a deep hatred for this man's suddenly rising barbecue restaurant. It wasn't so much out of a desire to eliminate Aunt Guan. Their social statuses were now vastly different, so there was no need for jealousy. She couldn't afford to delay dealing with Master Nan's important matter, and she also had her own plans to make; she simply couldn't afford to be jealous.

"Since you're unwilling to speak, then shut up forever!" Wu Tongling made a move to take Guan Hu's life.

Guan Hu was terrified. Better to live than die, so he quickly confessed, "I'll talk, I'll talk! It was that bitch Hua Yuhe who made me do it. I had no choice. I had to listen to her!"

"Tell me quickly, where is the thing?" Wu Tongling patiently interrupted his nonsense, increasing the pressure on his hand.

All three were on edge. Regardless of whether Guan Hu was telling the truth or not, Wu Tongling wouldn't let him off the hook today. And none of the other three could escape either; after all, the fewer people in the martial arts world knew about the martial arts manual and Wu Tongling, the safer they were.

Lan Yamei really wanted to shoot him dead! But this secret manual also held an incredible attraction for her; the more mysterious it was, the more she wanted to know. So she secretly gripped her pistol and aimed it at Wu Tongling.

Not only Lan Ya Mei, but the other two were also very curious about what kind of secret technique the other party had that made him hide his identity in China for many years and even fake his death to work for someone else in search of clues.

Seeing that his neck was about to be snapped, Guan Hu burst forth with an amazing will to survive, broke free of the ropes, quickly pulled out a short blade from his boot, and slashed Wu Tongling's clothes across the chest.

The short blade was extremely sharp, and beads of blood kept oozing out. Wu Tongling, in pain, released his grip and took a step back to dodge.

Guan Hu struggled to his feet, chuckled as he touched his neck, and said, “Master, I won’t ask you what use that manual is for. We’ve known each other for a while, so today I’ll give you a big gift. The family you’ve been searching for came to Longyang Town a month ago, and I killed them all except one. As long as you find this escaped person, you won’t have to worry about not finding the manual. It’s just a pity you can’t get it. Because my blade is poisoned! This poison is rare in the world. Unless Doctor Mei takes action, you will definitely die within twelve hours.”

Within seconds of being stabbed, Wu Tongling coughed up a mouthful of black blood, his vision blurred, and he lost his balance. The poison was clearly potent and fast-acting. Enraged, Wu Tongling clutched his chest and cursed, "You scoundrel!"

Lan Yamei tensed up. Guan Hu was up to no good! She immediately turned the gun she had been aiming at Wu Tongling towards Guan Hu. If he dared to utter Wang Fengyang's name, his head would be blown to bits.

"You dare poison me! I'll kill you!" Wu Tongling gritted his teeth, his mouth gaping wide, and drew his soft sword from his waist, thrusting it at Guan Hu with lightning speed, intending to kill him.

Guan Hu hadn't expected his opponent to make another move, and before he could dodge, he was struck in the throat with a sword. Clutching his neck, he collapsed to the ground in disbelief, coughing up several mouthfuls of blood. He lay motionless on the ground without uttering a word.

Because of his internal energy control while wielding the sword, the poison rapidly circulated throughout his body, causing his facial veins to bulge and him to suffer unbearable pain.

Looking up at the three menacing figures opposite him, he knew he had to prioritize survival. He sat down on the spot, circulating his protective energy to safeguard his meridians and prevent the poison from invading too quickly, while simultaneously plotting how to escape and find Doctor Mei.

Taking advantage of his weakness to finish him off, Zhao Zhicheng seized the opportunity and fired a tranquilizer gun. Before Wu Tongling could even open his eyes, he collapsed to the ground again. Without the circulation of his defensive qi, the toxins rapidly invaded his internal organs. Wu Tongling convulsed all over, writhing in excruciating pain.

Seeing the two people lying dead and injured on the ground, Zhao Zhicheng was terrified. He quickly patted his wildly beating heart and suggested, "I think we should just hand them over to the authorities. We don't want to get caught up in this mess."

Lan Ya Mei hesitated. Although it might involve negotiations between the two countries, this guy was too difficult to deal with right now, so she reconsidered, "That's what I think too, what do you think?"

"Kill him!" Qiu Zeyu said, his face dark. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, in his heart his master would always have been that old man who didn't care about worldly affairs or seek fame, but only devoted himself to the study of swordsmanship. Looking at his ferocious appearance now, he was no better off as a skeleton lying on Flower Fruit Mountain.

"Ah!" The two exclaimed in unison, after all, they were master and disciple, and it would be too cruel to kill him with their own hands.

"He absolutely cannot be kept alive; he will cause endless trouble!" Qiu Zeyu said firmly.

As he spoke, he approached Wu Tongling step by step, picked up the sword from the ground, held it to Wu Tongling's neck, paused and explained, "If he is rescued, he will definitely come back to harm our country in the future, and even more people will suffer! If we don't kill him today, he will kill us. Once he leaves this cave, in a few days, he will definitely kill Yangyang as well! Aunt Guan and Uncle Ouyang will also be in danger of losing their lives at any time."

"Kill them!" The two agreed, realizing they couldn't risk the lives of the barbecue restaurant staff for the sake of an unrelated old man.

Qiu Zeyu swung his sword down, and Wu Tongling's head fell to the ground. Instantly, thunder roared and dark clouds obscured the sun.

A torrential downpour began, accompanied by thunder and lightning. Lan Yamei felt as if she had been sucked into a distorted time tunnel, her bones feeling like they were about to break, causing her both pain and itching.

The space was cramped, making it impossible to breathe oxygen. My stomach was also churning in the distorted space-time, causing me to lose my balance and vomit on my knees.

She tried to grab something with both hands, but missed. Then, the world spun around her, and Lan Yamei fainted.

Thunder rumbled across the sky, each clap louder than the last, as if a dense curtain of rain had been drawn across the heavens and earth, making it pitch black. Only through the flashes of lightning could one glimpse people inside the cave.

After a deafening clap of thunder, the dark clouds dispersed, the rain gradually stopped, and the cave was bright again.

Lan Yamei woke up clutching her aching head and found herself lying in Qiu Zeyu's arms, while Zhao Zhicheng had vanished into thin air, leaving the two of them looking terrified!

"Where are they? Where is Zhao Zhicheng?" Qiu Zeyu asked after Lan Yamei recovered.

"They were just here a moment ago, could they have gone out?" Lan Yamei glanced at the two thugs on the ground, one dead and one injured, but Zhao Zhicheng was nowhere to be seen, and she was extremely panicked.

He secretly wondered if he had traveled back in time again.

Qiu Zeyu searched the cave thoroughly but still couldn't find Zhao Zhicheng. Worried, he said, "Don't move here! They're both dead, they won't hurt you. I'll go out and look for him. He must have been scared by Jing Lei and hid."

Lan Yamei wanted to stop her, but couldn't find a suitable excuse, so she could only nod in agreement.
