is is what you said, don't go back on your word!" Gu Qingcheng suddenly leaned into his ear and whispered, "Actually, my dad also said that this company is my dowry. Once I receive the dowry, I belong...They didn't expect to be attacked here, but the members of team X weren't flustered. Two men in black suits immediately stepped forward.

The biggest secret of the x team, lies in the fact that they are all cyborgs. Many parts of their bodies are made of precision steel instruments.

These steel structures, while not large, significantly enhanced their defensive capabilities and also strengthened their offensive power.

At this moment, the arms of the two men in black suits instantly extended to about two meters long, like iron bars, smashing towards the light.

In their eyes, the opponent's weapons were at most comparable to He Shuangshuang's dagger and posed no threat to them.

Unfortunately, they were wrong. After a flash of blades, the four arms of the two men in black suits were brutally severed, turning into pieces of scrap metal that clattered to the ground.

"Ah!"

Two black suits let out a scream, never having encountered such a situation when battling any enemy before.

They quickly retreated, but it was too late. The blade flashed again, instantly severing the heads of both of them.

But the death of the two also bought time, and King and the other two men in black suits had already retreated to 30 meters away with Yu Wanlu.

They looked into the darkness, and a woman with a black veil walked slowly towards them, carrying a pair of dragon-and-phoenix swords in her hands. It was none other than the Blade Maiden.

Originally, when Ye Bufan left, he sent a quick message to Dao Nvzi just in case, asking her to come and protect Yu Wanlu and He Shuangshuang.

But time was tight, Dao Nuzi arrived a little late, but she didn't miss it after all. She stopped Jin Si and the others here.

Feeling the icy killing intent emanating from Dao Nüzi, King felt a chill run down his spine. He hadn't expected to encounter so many masters in such a small Jiangnan city.

"Kill her!"

With no way out now, Kings gave his two subordinates another order.

Two people simultaneously raised their hands, and in an instant, their arms transformed into two pitch-black cannons, pointed directly at Dao Nüzi.

Cybernetic enhancements are the X-Men's greatest source of power, with the previous two strongest being their mechanical arms, each equipped with different weapons.

Two men in black suits flashed a grim look on their faces. In their eyes, no matter how strong the opponent was, as long as they pulled back the distance, they would ultimately not be a match for conventional weapons.

But just as they were about to fire, they were astonished to find that the Knife Maiden had disappeared. Immediately after, another flash of blade light appeared before their eyes.

"Click, click!"

(To be continued, please turn the page)

Two sharp cracks echoed, and the barrels of their guns proved useless against the Dragon-Phoenix Twin Blades. They were as flimsy as tofu, hacked into several pieces in the blink of an eye and scattered on the ground.

Then, the Dao Nüzi flipped her wrist, a sharp flash of blade light swept past, instantly beheading them all.

She was not only a master but also battle-hardened, and at this moment, she had already realized the strangeness of these people.

Facing a monster made entirely of steel, the only sure way to defeat it is to chop off its head.

Kings seized upon Yu Wanlu, then instantly retreated dozens of meters. This woman was more powerful than he had imagined; he had to maintain a sufficient distance.

This guy realized he was no match for the blade dancer and started using the hostage in his hands as a threat: "Don't come any closer, or I'll kill her immediately."

It's clear that the other party is also quite capable. At this distance, I don't have a guaranteed chance of landing a killing blow myself.

And, Ye Bufan didn't send me to kill, but to protect Yu Wanlu. I absolutely cannot let her get hurt.

This way it would be difficult, if Kings brought a gun to her, he'd have enough confidence that before he fired, he could move himself to avoid being hit.

But now Yu Wanlu is at the barrel of a gun, with no chance of escape.

Kings saw her thoughts and said triumphantly, "Those two knives of yours aren't bad. Throw them over here, and then get as far away from me as you can."

As a squad leader, he naturally knew how hard the metal arms of his men were, yet they offered no resistance against these two swords. This clearly indicated that these blades were priceless treasures.

"You Chinese are too naive. Now I have your hostages, and I hold all the cards. You have no leverage to negotiate with me."

King smirked and said, "Do as I say and chuck those knives over here. Then get out of my sight."

I'm going to count to three. If you're still in my sight when I get to three, I'll break her leg.

Don't think I'm joking with you, my orders are to bring her back alive. Everything else doesn't matter.

After finishing, King tossed the...

(Continued on next page)

The muzzle of the gun was pressed against Yàn Lù's left leg, and the countdown began, "3... 2... 1..."

When he was timing, all his attention was focused on the knife woman, preventing her from suddenly launching an attack. After all, he had just witnessed firsthand how formidable this Chinese woman was.

Just as he counted to the end, a sudden sharp pain struck him. Immediately after, the arm holding the gun went limp and thudded to the ground.

This guy's arms were incredibly heavy. When they hit the ground, a dull thud echoed. They were obviously steel-reinforced limbs, so not a drop of blood spilled.

King was astonished. He turned around and saw Ye Bufan standing behind him with a smile, holding a shining dragon fang in his hand.

"You foreigners think I'm gone, so you can finally make your move"

Ye Bufan pulled Yu Wanlu over, and then patted Jin Si's cheek with his hand, "You're thinking too much. This is our Huaxia, it's not your turn to run wild."

"Ye Bufan, is this all arranged by you"

Kins spoke as he retreated.

Ye Bufan smiled. "That's right, I arranged it. Are you satisfied"

"Ye, you're getting ahead of yourself."

King stepped back ten meters and sneered coldly, an extra black remote control appearing in the palm of his remaining arm.

"Ye Bufan, do you know why I am the captain of this team Because I control their lives."

To tell you the truth, all of us have been mechanically modified. Though the modifications vary from person to person, every mechanical part is filled with explosives. As long as I press this remote control, we'll all go up in flames.

Ye Bufan glanced around at the scattered limbs and several black-suited corpses lying on the ground, his heart sinking.

As Gins said, these guys are all loaded with drugs, each one a walking time bomb.

It seems I was careless. I should have killed this guy right away.

Seeing that he wasn't speaking, Kings said again, "Don't believe me Well, I'll show you a demonstration right now."

After that, he pressed a button on the remote control. The arm that had been severed by the Dao Nüzi earlier exploded with a loud bang.

This thing's composition is unknown, but its power is no less than that of a small grenade. A fierce blast swept outwards, shattering even the thickest tree trunks into splinters and leaving a crater several meters deep on the ground.

(The End)cream, he breathed a sigh of relief and then picked up her clothes from the ground and handed them over.But after all that commotion, the clothes fell to the ground, covered in water stains, with half...
