Ah Kuan's voice trembled as he called out, "Fifth Master, the man in the white dress... he seems a bit off!"
Following his gaze, everyone saw that the woman in the white dress suddenly had bulging veins, spat out a mouthful of blood, and then fainted.
Zhao Xiaoyue coldly pulled Yu Muqi's arm, glanced at her watch, and said softly, "Yes, the countdown has started. There are ten minutes left."
At this point, Master He finally panicked.
The white dress absolutely cannot be damaged, otherwise I won't be able to explain it to Brother Kun.
He hurriedly asked, "Young friend, what exactly do I need to do to spare the life of the woman in the white dress?"
Zhao Xiaoyue calmly looked at Master He and slowly said, "It's very simple. Just take us to the airport on Maddale Island. Also, please pass on a message to the chief of the Saudin tribe—that batch of diamonds must be returned to us intact. If even one is missing, I will raze him to the ground and make him a rat that everyone in the Southern Hemisphere hates!"
Master He was suddenly jolted, shocked by the powerful aura emanating from Zhao Xiaoyue. How could such a sharp gaze and imposing presence come from a child?
Wala, standing nearby, anxiously interjected, "But there's simply not enough time in just a few minutes to arrange for you to leave the island safely!"
“Then let’s use a helicopter!” Zhao Xiaoyue calmly suggested.
Yu Muqi quickly went over and, together with Hou Taotao, helped the injured Geng Qiusheng up. Zhao Xiaoyue then turned to Hou Taotao and instructed, "You two go out and wait for a while."
Hou Taotao nodded respectfully and replied, "Okay!"
Fifth Master He narrowed his eyes, turning the walnut in his hand as he pondered Hou Taotao's attitude...
The roar of helicopters echoed from the spacious helipad of the Dragon Flight Department, constantly reaching Zhao Xiaoyue's ears.
As Hou Taotao and the others took Geng Qiusheng away, he still hadn't figured out who the little girl was.
Master He asked, "Young friend, could you please tell me who you are...?"
Zhao Xiaoyue replied calmly and indifferently, "Didn't you ask a hunter to take the helm?"
Upon hearing this, both Master He and Wala beside him were filled with question marks and were puzzled.
Immediately after a moment of silence, a hissing sound was heard.
Fifth Master He suddenly stood up and asked incredulously, "Are you the Hunter Captain? And the newly appointed Hunter Captain at that?"
When asked by Master He, Zhao Xiaoyue simply raised the corners of her mouth and softly uttered two words: "Guess!"
Master He turned the walnut in his hand again, muttering to himself thoughtfully, "The helmsman... Master Zhao?"
However, Zhao Xiaoyue did not respond to him. Instead, she went straight to the white-clad man who was about to faint and began to search his body... She applied a few acupoints on his ribs, back spine, and neck with skillful force.
The person who was about to collapse slowly regained consciousness. Ah Kuan looked at Zhao Xiaoyue in surprise, "Acupressure?"
Zhao Xiaoyue: "Yeah, that old man didn't teach me anything else."
"May I ask who your master is?"
Zhao Xiaoyue chuckled, her tone sarcastic, "You really dare to ask!"
Then, turning to He Zhengtai, he said, "Fifth Master He, we've always kept to ourselves and never interfered with each other. You and I both know that. This time, you hurt Fifth Master, and I didn't let your men get away with it either. I'm not one to beat around the bush... If there's a next time, the hunters aren't easy to bully!"
Zhao Xiaoyue spoke her warning calmly, and given that it was a little girl's voice, Master He didn't take it to heart. He was just wondering who was behind this little girl.
How could a little child be in charge of the hunters? How could Pu Changling entrust the hunters to a young girl? It's simply inconceivable! Absolutely impossible!
He Wuye didn't actually want to make things difficult for the hunters. The reason he tortured Geng Qiusheng was because Wala and his men were trying to force Geng Qiusheng to reveal who the big boss behind the two mines was, the hunters' whereabouts, and where Pu Liuye was.
Unfortunately, Geng Qiusheng was too stubborn and refused to reveal a single word no matter what!
Watching the helicopter disappear into the distance, Uncle He waved to Wala and said, "Go tell Brother Kun that we can't touch the mine for the time being."
Vara nodded and left.
On the helicopter, Zhao Xiaoyue gave Geng Qiusheng a quick treatment for his injuries, then instructed Hou Taotao to drive to the airport and then take a car to the nearest hospital. Geng Qiusheng's injuries were quite serious.
The main problem is bleeding in the abdominal cavity, which requires surgery.
When they arrived at the hospital, the medical staff quickly carried them into the emergency room.
Zhao Xiaoyue sat on a chair in the corridor, while Hou Taotao, Yu Muqi, and the twenty-odd people they each brought stood. Each person had a different expression and posture, but they all seemed somewhat tense and solemn.
Zhao Xiaoyue's eyes were cold and resolute. She kept her lips tightly closed and didn't say a word, as if she was deep in thought.
The crowd watched her silently, their minds filled with a myriad of thoughts.
At that moment, a passing medical worker noticed the unusual behavior of the group. She glanced at the crowd curiously, then turned her gaze to the little child they were surrounding.
However, due to the unusually somber atmosphere, the medical staff hesitated for a moment and ultimately did not have the courage to go forward and inquire about the situation, but simply walked past in a hurry.
The entire scene was eerily quiet; one could even hear the faint sounds of breathing and footsteps. This silence created an invisible pressure, as if time itself had frozen.
No one dared to break the silence; everyone was waiting for Zhao Xiaoyue to speak or make another move. The twenty-odd people behind her were curious when they saw their leader standing silently, but they didn't dare to ask and just stood there obediently.
Finally, Hou Taotao couldn't hold back any longer and said, "I'm sorry, Captain, I didn't handle things well. I'll go back and face the consequences."
Yu Muqi had just opened his mouth, wanting to say something, when Zhao Xiaoyue gave him a sharp look.
That gaze seemed to possess an irresistible power, causing Yu Muqi to immediately shut his mouth. At this moment, Zhao Xiaoyue was like a god of death, exuding a chilling aura.
"This is not the place to talk. Let's wait until Geng Qiusheng has finished his surgery before we discuss this further."
Four hours later, Geng Qiusheng was wheeled out of the operating room, and Yu Muqi and Hou Taotao quickly inquired about his condition.
The doctor said, "The patient's injuries are quite serious, with internal bleeding and multiple fractures and cracks. He should not be moved and needs to rest for three months. That's all!"
Hou Taotao and his group cracked their knuckles; the people from the Dragon Journey Department were going too far.
Once the person was admitted to the intensive care unit, they were kept under constant supervision. Zhao Xiaoyue, Hou Taotao, and Yu Muqi went to the hospital pavilion to talk.
The pavilion is open on all sides, so anything there can be seen at a glance.
Zhao Xiaoyue sat on the stone bench, while the other two stood respectfully.
Zhao Xiaoyue turned to Hou Taotao and asked, "Brother Tao, tell me what happened to you. Didn't I tell you to go find someone from the embassy? How did you get caught?"
Hou Taotao was incredibly frustrated and embarrassed. He and Geng Qiusheng had never done anything so shameful before.
