Lin Mu jumped out the window and then saw two figures sprinting across the road, their speed ridiculously fast. Any normal person seeing that would definitely think they were seeing things, because a human being just shouldn’t be able to run that fast.

If people really could run that fast, they might as well go sign up for the Olympics. Liu Xiang, Bolt and the rest would look like total jokes in front of them, they could snag a bunch of gold medals without even trying.

Lin Mu hit the ground and, without the slightest hesitation, shot after those two shadows. His speed was fast, but the two Ninjas were no slouches either—absolute top-tier parkour pros. Plus they’d already opened up some distance at the start, so for the moment it really was hard to close in.

Of course, if they just kept at it like this, catching up wasn’t impossible, because Lin Mu’s Lightweight Skill was no joke, and the two shadows were still right there in his line of sight. As long as Lin Mu decided he had to catch them, they weren’t getting away.

The three of them kept tearing through the streets for several minutes, and then the two Ninjas suddenly flickered—and vanished right where they were.

"Fuck," Lin Mu ran up and stopped, suddenly remembering these two also knew Ninjutsu. If they suddenly went invisible and hid behind some kind of cover, then it’d be damn hard for Lin Mu to grab them, because when you’re moving that fast it’s not easy to pinpoint their position.

Lin Mu stood there and scanned around, and saw two black shadows dashing off in different directions. Obviously the two Japanese Ninjas had split up. With it like this, chasing them down would be a pain, so he decided to give up and let them run!

Lin Mu pulled out a cigarette, lit up, took a hard drag, then headed back toward the hotel. He thought that was the end of it, but reality slapped him in the face. When he got back, he called out to Man Luo a few times, only to find that she was nowhere in the hotel room.

Lin Mu immediately realized Man Luo had probably run into trouble, and those two Ninjas just now were most likely bait, a classic luring-the-tiger-away-from-the-mountain move. Their real target was to snatch Man Luo.

He hurriedly dialed Man Luo several times, but her phone was off. Lin Mu flashed over to Gray Wolf’s door, knocked, and said, "Gray Wolf."

"Boss, what’s up?" Gray Wolf opened the door and asked.

"Have you seen Man Luo?" Lin Mu asked.

"No, wasn’t she with you?" Gray Wolf asked.

"I just fought with two Ninjas, then tried to chase them down and finish them. Who knew, by the time I got back Man Luo was gone. I walked right into their diversion plan." Lin Mu said after thinking it through.

"They’re Jinye’s people?" Gray Wolf asked.

"Yeah, the same batch of Ninjas you mentioned before. Jinye definitely has a lot more Ninjas under him! Oh right, did you hear any sounds of fighting just now?"

Gray Wolf shook his head. "Didn’t hear a thing." 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

"Let’s go to the Imperial Capital International Club. Call Golden Wolf." Lin Mu said, his expression turning grim.

"Got it." Gray Wolf nodded, quickly threw on an outer jacket, then knocked on Golden Wolf’s door. The three of them went downstairs together and left the hotel, heading straight for the parking lot.

But just as they entered the parking lot, Lin Mu sensed something was off. Several Mercedes were parked right on the driveway into the lot, very eye-catching. Lin Mu felt like he’d seen those cars somewhere before.

"It’s Jinye and his crew." Lin Mu said coldly.

"Motherfucker, let’s waste that bastard, he actually dared lay a hand on sis-in-law." Gray Wolf said.

"Don’t rush it. See how it plays out first." Lin Mu forced himself to calm down. As much as he wanted Jinye dead right now, he told himself he had to handle this carefully, because back when he was with the Wolf Fang Team, they’d gotten into trouble more than once for losing control of their emotions.

Soon the Mercedes’ doors opened, and Jinye and a few bodyguards got out. There were a bit over ten of them, following behind Jinye as they walked toward Lin Mu. They looked like just a dozen people, but Lin Mu knew there had to be more lying in ambush in the dark. He’d already swept the area with his sharp Seventh Sense and could faintly feel threads of thick killing intent lurking around him.

Lin Mu stared at the approaching Jinye, his whole body radiating a searing aura, his Little Universe roaring into full burn. Jinye had a thumb-thick cigar pinched between his fingers, looking all smug, like he had Lin Mu and the others completely in his pocket.

"Heh, Lin Mu, we meet again." Jinye looked at Lin Mu and chuckled.

Lin Mu wasn’t in the mood to trade jokes with Jinye. He said coldly, "You grabbed Man Luo, didn’t you?"

Hearing that, Jinye put on an innocent look, staring at Lin Mu with exaggerated surprise. "What? Man Luo’s missing? I didn’t take her."

"Fatty Jin, cut the bullshit. Hand her over, or I’ll peel your skin off, rip out your tendons, and chop you into dog food." Gray Wolf pointed at Jinye and cursed.

That line hit Jinye right where it hurt. To be honest, his hatred for Gray Wolf now way outweighed the grudge he had against Lin Mu. Simple reason: his woman, Mei Niang, was now with this loser Gray Wolf. Men hate nothing more than having another guy dig out their corner. Even if Mei Niang was only his side chick, he’d actually fallen for her. And that woman he caught feelings for had been snatched away and betrayed him for Gray Wolf. Any man would have a special kind of venom for the homewrecker in that situation!

"You dumbass Niu Bi Zi, I really do want to peel your skin, rip out your tendons, and chop you up to feed the dogs." Jinye’s face went deathly pale with rage, eyes bulging like he wanted to eat Gray Wolf alive.

"Idiot, you got what it takes for that?" Gray Wolf sneered.

"Why don’t we try and see?" Jinye stared coldly at Gray Wolf.

"Hmph, like I’d be scared of you? Bring it on!" Gray Wolf started provoking him outright. When love rivals meet, the jealousy meter instantly explodes. In a sense, Gray Wolf and Jinye were exactly that—romantic rivals. So they locked eyes immediately, both itching to kill the other.

"Gray Wolf, cool it." Lin Mu reached out and stopped Gray Wolf. The one he was most worried about right now was Man Luo.

"Jinye, I’ll ask you once: was it you who took Man Luo?" Lin Mu stared at Jinye and asked coldly.

"Heh, and what if I did? And what if I didn’t?" Jinye sneered, neither admitting nor denying.

"If you did, I advise you to bring her back right now." Lin Mu said icily.

"Bring her back? Hah, and why the hell should I? You want something from me? Then get on your knees and beg." Jinye sneered. Obviously he knew Man Luo was one of Lin Mu’s weak spots. And once he knew it was a weak spot, there was even less reason for him to let Man Luo go.

"Kneel? I’ve always stood tall, lived standing up, made my money standing up, and I’ll beat every last enemy while standing. Since you don’t know what’s good for you, don’t blame me for what happens next." As soon as Lin Mu finished, he launched himself forward and charged straight at Jinye.

But Jinye’s face stayed calm, like he had everything under control. Sure enough, as Lin Mu rushed in, four black-clad Ninjas suddenly slipped out of the darkness.
