Chapter 179: Yu Yu’s childish methods

Mei asked, "Master, where are you going?"

"I am going to catch someone for Han Xin. Now don’t make trouble for Little Bai, okay?" Xiang Yu replied.

The twins nodded, and Xiang Yu said, "I will be back by morning," before grabbing his keys and walking out.

As soon as the door closed, Lian and Mei turned their attention back to Little Bai, who trembled slightly under their gaze. They were so little but terrifying.

Lian said, "Brother Bai, do you know how we can help Master get us a new mum?"

Mei chimed in, "But our new mum should be a man."

Little Bai, "..."

While Lian and Mei were discovering the world of dating apps, Xiang Yu had gone to his office to pack a few things, including some New Year’s firecrackers. The Divine Emperor, ever curious, asked him why he was taking those. Xiang Yu simply replied, "It might come in handy," before heading out.

As he drove, he asked the Divine Emperor, "Where is he?" referring to Die Liang, the illegitimate child of the Die clan leader who had been kept hidden.

The Divine Emperor responded in his mind, "He is at this address. He is protected by several bodyguards and will be very difficult to lure out."

Xiang Yu saw the address in his mind and took a sharp left, heading in that direction. He parked his car a few streets over and walked five minutes to the nightclub where Die Liang was. Xiang Yu was fairly certain that the Die clan leader had instructed Die Liang to stay at his safe house, but of course, he wouldn’t listen.

"You will help me with the cameras, right? That is the least you can do," Xiang Yu said to the Divine Emperor in his mind.

"I can’t interfere," the Divine Emperor replied.

"Will you stop with the ’I can’t interfere’ nonsense?" Xiang Yu imitated the Divine Emperor’s voice mockingly.

"I don’t sound like that," the Divine Emperor retorted.

"Not to me, old man. I am doing this for your son. The least you can do is make the cameras malfunction so that Peng Xiu won’t come knocking on my door again."

"Fine," the Divine Emperor conceded, before asking, "Did you pay for your traffic fines?"

Xiang Yu, "..."

"Stop nagging. I will pay for it," he said as he walked towards Die Liang’s cars parked in the lot. There he found a man smoking and keeping a casual watch over the vehicles. The guard seemed quite relaxed. Xiang Yu snuck up from behind and put him in a chokehold, knocking him out. He dragged the unconscious man behind another car, farthest from the others, and then returned to stab the tyres of each car before leaving.

He needed to lure Die Liang out, so he entered the bustling nightclub. Squeezing his way to the bar, he spotted Die Liang in the VIP section, surrounded by women and enjoying himself. Xiang Yu smiled, having found his target. He ordered a virgin mojito and, while waiting for it, a series of explosions erupted in the nightclub, causing people to scream and run in panic.

"I still think your method is childish," the Divine Emperor said in his mind.

Xiang Yu smiled. "Childish or not, it works." He had scattered fire crackers around where ever he walked and waited for them to explode.

As the nightclub erupted into chaos, people screamed and rushed for the exits. Die Liang, caught in the frenzy, was quickly surrounded by his security guards as they headed for the nearest exit. Xiang Yu stood up and left as well, his steps relaxed and unhurried, a stark contrast to the panic around him.

In the parking lot, the bodyguards reached Die Liang’s car and opened the door, only to discover that the tyres were flat. One of them shouted the alarming news, causing Die Liang to panic. "What do we do?" he asked, his voice trembling.

The lead bodyguard, visibly annoyed, shoved Die Liang into the car. "Stay down," he ordered. He had warned Die Liang that it wasn’t safe to go out, but Die Liang had insisted, and now they were in this predicament.

Perched atop an abandoned skyscraper, Xiang Yu set up his tranquillizer gun and looked through the scope. The Divine Emperor’s voice echoed in his mind, "Why not just use real bullets? Why go through all this trouble?"

"They hired a security company to protect this idiot. No one deserves to die for him," Xiang Yu replied, adjusting the scope on his custom tranquillizer dart gun. His silhouette, clad in sleek, dark tactical gear, blended seamlessly with the night, exuding an aura of cool confidence. His sharp, calculating eyes scanned the parking lot across the street.

The target was heavily guarded, but the original Xiang Yu had done this a hundred times before. He took a deep breath, steadying his heartbeat, and focused on the first bodyguard. The tranquillizer dart gun, a custom piece with a silencer and high-precision scope, felt like an extension of his arm. With a fluid motion, he aimed and fired. The dart flew silently through the air, finding its mark on the bodyguard’s neck. The man crumpled to the ground without a sound.

Xiang Yu smirked, his handsome features briefly illuminated by the moonlight. He moved to the next target, repeating the process with the same deadly accuracy. One by one, the bodyguards fell. He moved with the grace of a panther, his every action deliberate and controlled.

The remaining bodyguards ducked behind the car, frantically searching for the shooter. "Where is it coming from?" the lead bodyguard demanded. freeωebnovēl.c૦m

One bodyguard gestured that he would use himself as bait and stepped out. He was immediately shot down, the dart hitting his neck. The lead bodyguard now knew where the shots were coming from. They fired in Xiang Yu’s direction, but it was pointless. Their attacker shot at anyone who got up or moved, his shots precise and unerring.

The lead bodyguard took out his phone and ordered one of the bodyguards who weren’t in the parking lot to find the shooter. "He must be at the top of the building across," he instructed. Just as he said that another man was shot in the foot. He cried out, his gaze hazy before passing out.

The lead bodyguard was baffled by the tranquillizer darts. "Who would use this instead of real bullets?" he muttered.

***

The Divine Emperor’s voice came again, "Someone is coming."

Xiang Yu quickly pulled the trigger, shooting one more bodyguard before the door burst open and a huge man, twice his size, lunged forward with a growl.

He swore under his breath as he fired at the man, but it was too late. The man grabbed the muzzle of the dart gun just as Xiang Yu pulled the trigger, flinging the gun away with a powerful motion. In an instant, the man’s massive hands were around Xiang Yu’s neck, lifting him off the ground. Xiang Yu’s face turned red, veins throbbing as the grip tightened like a vice.

Desperate, Xiang Yu reached for his handgun and fired at the man’s toes. The man cried out in pain, releasing his grip. Xiang Yu fell to the ground, gasping for air and struggling to get up. The man, now bleeding, rammed into Xiang Yu like a raging bull, slamming him into the wall. Xiang Yu’s ears rang, and blood dripped down his temples, leaving him in a daze.

The man pulled out his gun, but he was much slower than Xiang Yu, who quickly aimed and shot him in the abdomen. The man cried out, pressing his hand against the wound. Xiang Yu got up, holding his head while gripping the handgun tightly.

"I don’t want to kill you, but if you get up, I will," Xiang Yu warned, his voice cold and steady.

The man, not wanting to die for a job, nodded his head vigorously. Xiang Yu asked the Divine Emperor for the man’s information in his mind. When he received it, he said, "Your name is Zhen Ran. You have two kids and an ex-wife. I know where you live, so if you don’t want your loved ones to be hurt, don’t mention me."

Terrified, Zhen Ran nodded again. "I won’t say anything," he promised.

Satisfied, Xiang Yu pulled out Zhen Ran’s phone with his gloved hand and dialled the emergency number before handing it back to him. Zhen Ran was confused but when he heard the woman on the other end ask, "What is your emergency?" he was surprised.

He watched in awe as Xiang Yu walked away, speaking to the woman on the phone. The scene was surreal, and Zhen Ran couldn’t help but feel a mix of fear and admiration for the man who had just spared his life.
