Chapter 817 - Gave their plan out to the enemy (1/2)

The atmosphere inside Red Moon dropped drastically as a large group surrounds Tao Meng and his men. The majority of them were clothed in black tactical wear, and each person wore a gas mask that hid their faces.

Amongst this group was seven other figures dressed in the same color. However, unlike the combat outfits of the others, these people were dressed in casual attire.

The feature that stood out the most was their black parka coat with the word 'Fate' engraved on the back.

Anyone from the underworld who saw this knew right away who these people are.

Lu Tian's Wolf Team and Yue Ling's Alpha Team.

Tao Meng and his men were as pale as ghosts. Even the sweat that formed on their foreheads glowed underneath the light.

'What the hell is going on? When were we surrounded?'

As Tao Meng question the change of situation in his head, Liu Shan scoffs a sneer at the man's expression.

He walks over to where Tao Meng stood at a steady pace. Until he was only two feet away, he finally stopped.

”From your expression, I presume you must be wondering how we knew it was you?”

His question fell like he could Tao Meng's mind. However, despite no answer from the man, he wasn't mad or annoyed one bit. He calmly held his hand behind his back, and a subtle smile curls on his face.

”You see, to answer this question is simple.”

He raises his right hand and points the tip of his finger on his temple with a few light taps.

”You should have stopped when you surmised Han Yue Ling and Mami were the same person.”

His hand lowers and joins the other behind his back again. He looked like an elder disciplining a student.

”As for how we infiltrated Red Moon, that is also a simple answer.”

He tilts his head to the left and gestures to a camera hung on the corner.

”Hacking your security system was like taking candy from a baby.”

And that was the truth.

Before they arrived at Red Moon, he had already hacked Red Moon's security system. The moment he and the others arrived, the system would fail unless he turns it back on.

That was also why no one knew they were coming, nor did anyone see them enter.

”You shouldn't have put your ego so high and crossed the line.”

He scans the room once at Wolf Team and Alpha Team before looking at a stupefied Tao Meng. He chuckles softly, moves his hands from behind his back, and places them in his pant pockets.

”As for why they are here....”

He pauses after his words, and his smile arcs up until it reach his eyes.

”They're here because you did something stupid.”

When he, Xu Long, Lin Hui, and Qi Li were on their way here, he didn't think it was necessary to call the others, mostly since the four of them were enough to handle the situation.

However, after careful consideration, he concluded that 'this' was the best way to scare off the rats. While he, Xu Long, Lin Hui, and Qi Li distract Tao Meng and his men, Wolf Team and Alpha Team will wait for the signal to rush in. And that signal was the pat he gave on Xu long's shoulder.

He blinks his eyes with leisure, but the moment his eyes opened again, there was only a

humorless look on him.

Did he care that he gave their plan out to the enemy? No.

”You should have taken your interest somewhere else.”

Tao Meng could only stare at Liu Shan with only silence. Even though his brain was roaring for him to move, his body could not compromise, leaving him unable to move an inch.

The longer he stared into Liu Shan's eyes, he was quick to understand how Jia Lin must have felt on the underground fighting ring.

'Mad Reaper.'

A name the underworld gave him (Liu Shan) for a reason. A name that is truly fitting of his dangerous ambiance.

”Y-you...”

After a long while, he finally found his courage to speak again. However, that courage only allowed him to stutter one word.

”Pftt-”

Hearing him have difficulty speaking, Xu Long snort a loud laugh while trying to contain himself. He quickly covers his mouth and clears his throat.

He walks over to stand next to Liu Shan and smiles care freely at Tao Meng.

”It's okay to be scared. Being scared is a natural feeling when one is going to die.”
