Urban Super Soldier King-Chapter 601: Changed the Course of Battle

"Yu, it’s them," Tie Zhuzi was the first to speak.

The eight individuals were indeed the same people who had searched the rooms at the hotel just moments ago, and it seemed like they had also spotted Xiang Yu and the others in the car, so they started walking over.

"Don’t worry about them, just go," Xiang Yu decisively instructed.

Tie Zhuzi acknowledged with a response, then drove off. The eight people behind, originally in doubt, now saw Xiang Yu and the others making a getaway and hurriedly chased after them.

"Stop right there," the eight people shouted from behind.

"Idiots," Tie Zhuzi cursed, then threw the car into reverse and charged straight at the eight people.

The group was taken aback, not expecting the others to dare to come back at them. The person in front was hit by Tie Zhuzi’s car and sent flying, while the others scattered to avoid being hit.

Tie Zhuzi laughed heartily, cursed again, then floored the accelerator and drove off.

Some of the people behind got into their cars to pursue, while others took the person who was hit to the hospital. Tie Zhuzi sped away so quickly that in the blink of an eye, there was no sign of the pursuers left behind.

There were roadblocks set up on the main roads, so they had to take the back roads. Tie Zhuzi had been through situations like this not just once or twice, so he navigated with practiced ease.

But he felt somewhat annoyed, as this was akin to fleeing.

After twisting and turning and leaving the city behind them, they all finally felt at ease. Xiang Yu took out his phone and made a call to Xiaoxuan.

"Brother, they’ve returned to the hotel," Xiaoxuan reported.

"You should pull out now," said Xiang Yu.

Hearing Xiang Yu’s words, Xiaoxuan was initially startled. It was clear that He Yuntian had already defected. How could he let him roam freely now instead of eliminating him? That didn’t make sense.

"Brother, I’ll take out He Yuntian before I go," Xiaoxuan pleaded.

"No, come back directly, and don’t meet with him," Xiang Yu ordered.

Seeing Xiang Yu’s insistence, Xiaoxuan knew that He Yuntian was still of some use to Xiang Yu, so he agreed and then hung up the phone. Being on his own, it was easy for him to leave, so without further delay, he immediately left the city.

When Xiaoxuan returned to Xiang Yu’s office, it was already one o’clock in the morning. Everyone had been waiting, and they finally relaxed when they saw Xiaoxuan return.

The Tianlong Squad now only had He Yuntian’s team left in that location. He Yuntian had defected, but he hadn’t shown his hand, seeming to suggest that the enemy wanted to play a long game.

Xiang Yu decided to go along with this plan and let He Yuntian stay undercover there. He might be needed later, and since He Yuntian didn’t want to come back, he decided to stay in the city, living freely.

"This Evil God is not simple. We were too reckless," Xiang Yu reflected while sitting there.

Wu Jing nodded and said, "Now I have a certain understanding of them, these people are truly not simple. They start by brainwashing, thereby controlling the person’s thoughts, which is a terrifying thing. If we don’t pay enough attention, it could lead to great chaos in society someday. Moreover, they have been buying arms continuously, it seems their goal is not so simple."

Xiang Yu also nodded vigorously, holding a small green ball in his hand. This object could change human physiological mechanisms, its specific effects unknown. But the impact it created initially was significant.

Tie Zhuzi sat to the side looking dejected and did not speak, thinking the task would be easy—to locate the enemy’s boss then take the brothers over and simply eliminate him, never expecting such complexity.

Xiang Yu pondered for a moment and said to Wang Ze, "Starting from tomorrow, inform all our brothers to be very careful and cautious, we absolutely cannot let the Evil God infiltrate our ranks. They must know through He Yuntian that it was we who did this, and they will surely take revenge."

Tie Zhuzi clenched his teeth at the side, harshly cursing He Yuntian under his breath.

While several people were discussing matters, at this moment Xiang Yu’s phone suddenly buzzed with a message. Texts were rare on Xiang Yu’s phone; his brothers would always call him directly.

Xiang Yu didn’t want to look, but still casually opened it to have a look. It was from Shi Jian, with just four words: "Are you asleep?"

Shi Jian understood Xiang Yu very well; when Xiang Yu was sleeping, he hated being disturbed the most. The reason why Shi Jian texted to greet him first was out of fear of disturbing Xiang Yu and then having his phone smashed.

Xiang Yu directly picked up the phone and called back.

"What’s the matter?" Xiang Yu asked straightforwardly.

"Haven’t you gone to bed?" Shi Jian didn’t expect Xiang Yu to reply so quickly, and from how energetic Xiang Yu sounded, he hadn’t gone to bed, especially considering it was already after midnight.

"Is there a problem at home?" Xiang Yu asked succinctly.

Without beating around the bush, Shi Jian replied, "Tonight, there’s a big duel involving Gao Leiming and the others."

Xiang Yu was startled to hear this, not expecting the situation there to escalate so quickly.

"Who do you think will win?" Xiang Yu asked directly.

"They are no match for Gao Leiming, his strength was already greater than theirs, and he also hid his true power. Now at one in the morning, I estimate the winner will be decided tonight." Shi Jian paused before continuing, "He already knows that it was us who hurt his brother."

Upon hearing this, Xiang Yu felt the hair on his body stand on end. Shi Jian was a proud man, and if he could handle it on his own, he would never easily ask Xiang Yu for help.

Now that Shi Jian had spoken these words, it was sufficient to illustrate the severity of the situation. If Xiang Yu didn’t rush back soon, Gao Leiming might well take action against Shi Jian and the others after today.

Although there were some resources at home, they were of little significance in front of Gao Leiming.

"Has he sought you out yet?" Xiang Yu had already stood up from the sofa, making no attempt to hide the murderous aura on his face.

Wu Jing and the others nearby also stood up; they realized the issue seemed quite serious. Especially Wu Jing, who was aware of the situation at home, now looked particularly tense.

"Not yet, but I’ve received the news. After tonight, Gao Leiming is going to make his move. Everyone has already gathered here. Don’t worry, if it comes to it, we will retreat," Shi Jian said.

Shi Jian also knew that Xiang Yu was facing significant difficulties, and he didn’t want Xiang Yu to be distracted. He had reported the situation to Xiang Yu to hear his opinion.

"Prepare a retreat route, I’m coming back now," Xiang Yu declared firmly.

"What about your end?" Shi Jian felt both excited and nervous after hearing this news.

"Don’t worry, I’ll be there by tomorrow night," Xiang Yu said and then hung up the phone.

At this point, the few people around were all looking at Xiang Yu; they knew that a new round of fighting was about to start. Especially Tie Zhuzi, who had been feeling incredibly frustrated, was now almost excited enough to shout out loud.

"This time when we go back, we have to kill them," Tie Zhuzi said while rubbing his knuckles and palms with eagerness...
