Haitang understood his meaning perfectly well, and said to the bodyguards, "Put away your guns and take these brothers on the ground out of here. You don't need to worry about what's going on here."
With Shen Dong, the world's number one martial arts expert, around, Haitang had no worries about her and her brother's safety.
"Yes, Sister Haitang."
The bodyguards put away their guns and took the unconscious security guards out.
Shen Dong looked at the man with interest and smiled, "Judging from your accent, you seem to be from Xia."
The man sized up Shen Dong and said, "I'm from Dongshan Province in Xia Country. What's your name? And what's your relationship with Miss Haitang?"
Shen Dong smiled and said, "Shen Dong."
The man's eyes lit up, and he said, "You're the one who's known as the number one martial arts master in Hong Kong, Shen Dong?"
Shen Dong said, "To be precise, he is the number one expert in the world."
The man laughed loudly and said, "You're very confident?"
Shen Dong said, "What kind of man lacks confidence? Sir, are you really an assassin from Angel Wings?"
The man nodded and said, "That's right. Is there a problem?"
Shen Dong sat down in a chair and said, "Do you Angel Wings kill people this openly and honestly? This is not the kind of assassin I imagined."
The man said, "I should say that my behavior is different from other assassins because I don't like assassination."
Shen Dong said, "With your skill level, you don't need to resort to stealth and assassination to kill someone. What's your name?"
The man said, "You can call me Ace of Spades."
Shen Dong said, "Mr. Ace of Spades, among the assassins in your Angel Wings organization, there shouldn't be anyone better than you in terms of martial arts, right?"
Ace of Spades raised an eyebrow and said, "I am the number one assassin of Angel Wings."
Shen Dong nodded and said, "I guessed so. Let's release Hai Yuan and draw a line."
Ace of Spades stood up and said, "I've known about your relationship with Miss Haitang for a long time. The reason I didn't kill her last time was to lure you here."
Shen Dong asked, puzzled, "What do you want with me?"
The Ace of Spades said, “I joined Angel Wings not to make money, but to hone my skills. Since I reached the Transformation Realm two years ago, no one has been able to withstand three punches or two kicks from me, which has been very disappointing. I heard that you, Mr. Shen, are the number one expert in Hong Kong, and once easily defeated eight top experts from three major triads, so I thought I’d have a match with you. If you lose, Miss Haitang’s life is mine. If you win, my life is yours.”
Shen Dong smiled and said, "Among my brothers, there are many martial arts fanatics. I didn't expect to run into another one here."
Xiahou Wu stepped forward, looked at the Ace of Spades, and said coldly, "You are not qualified to fight Brother Dong."
"hehe."
The Ace of Spades burst out laughing, saying, "This is the first time I've heard of someone..."
At this point, the Ace of Spades suddenly stopped, his smile turning into astonishment, and said, "You're also a master of internal energy transformation?"
Xiahou Wu said, "Reaching the Transformation Realm is nothing special. If you want to fight Brother Dong, you'll have to get past me first."
The Ace of Spades' eyes gleamed as he said, "Very good, very good. I've finally met an opponent who can match me."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ace of Spades picked up the coffee table and threw it directly at Xiahou Wu.
The cups, toys, and other odds and ends on the coffee table all turned into hidden weapons and were thrown at Xiahou Wu.
Xiahou Wu swayed, dodging the attacks, and then slammed his hand on the coffee table.
"Bang"
The sturdy marble coffee table was split in two.
"Impressive skill."
Seeing the opportunity, the Ace of Spades was overjoyed. He moved swiftly and appeared in front of Xiahou Wu, grabbing at his neck with both hands in a coordinated attack.
He was using Feng Yuxiu's most proficient Eagle Claw technique.
Xiahou Wu remained unfazed, meeting fire with fire. In a short time, they clashed more than ten times, causing the air to explode and creating a series of air bursts.
This clash between two masters of the Hua Jin (a type of martial arts technique) should be the first time in decades that such a battle has taken place in the martial arts world.
It's a pity there were too few spectators; it's a bit of a shame for the competition.
On the other side, Haitang and Shen Dong walked straight up to Haiyuan.
"Xiao Yuan, are you alright?" Haitang asked softly.
Haiyuan said with a mournful face, "Sister, that big bad guy planted a bomb on me."
"What?"
Haitang was startled and carefully took off Haiyuan's coat, and sure enough, she saw a small bomb on his body.
There were only ten minutes left until the explosion.
Shen Dong said, "It seems the Ace of Spades isn't completely stupid after all. Ah Jie, come here for a second and see if you can defuse this bomb?"
Li Jie immediately came over, observed for a moment, and said, "This kind of bomb is the most difficult to defuse. It's basically impossible to take it down in nine minutes."
Shen Dong said, "You mean we can only choose one of the three lines: red, yellow, and blue."
Li Jie nodded and said, "Yes."
Haitang said without hesitation, "I'll cut it."
"Need not."
Shen Dong stretched out two fingers, pinched the red line, and sensed something was wrong.
Then he picked up the yellow line, not noticing no danger, and squeezed it hard, breaking the yellow line in two.
The stopwatch on the bomb stopped.
Haitang asked in surprise, "How did you know which line to cut?"
Shen Dong laughed and said, "With my level of skill, I can sense danger in advance. I felt uncomfortable when I picked up the red thread, but I didn't feel anything with the yellow thread, so I concluded that the yellow thread was safe."
Haitang kissed him and said, "You're amazing."
