At the moment of the bomb explosion, it naturally alarmed the nearby people. Those close by screamed in fright, thinking it was a war coming, while those farther away thought it was a sudden earthquake.

"Bastard!" Li Tang, a slightly chubby young man, had a somewhat dazed expression as he stared blankly at the scene before him. After calling Li Yang, he directly contacted the Qingmu Society members stationed at the Border City Famous Towers to tell them to protect the Black Tiger. Still uneasy, he rushed over, only to be greeted by this earth-shattering explosion. Seeing the Cyan Dragon instantly shattered by the bomb, Li Tang was utterly dumbfounded.

Who was Cyan Dragon?

Everyone in the Southwest knew; it was one of the three major symbols of the Black Tiger Gang, a star of bad fortune, and a fang of the Black Tiger. In the Black Tiger Gang, its status was almost on par with the Black Tiger itself. Now that Cyan Dragon had died at the hands of the Qingmu Society, one could imagine the Black Tiger Gang's revenge awaiting the Qingmu Society.

"It's over, it's over, which bastard, which bastard, —" After a moment, Li Tang screamed like a mad dog.

Then Li Tang seemed to remember something and pulled out his phone to dial a string of numbers.

"Sorry, the number you dialed is powered off, please try again later!"

"Damn it—" Li Tang cursed, smashing his phone to the ground until it shattered: "Let me find out which bastard started this, and I'll shoot you."

"Send my order, all Qingmu Society members return to their posts and enter emergency lockdown, always ready for battle!" After saying this, Li Tang got into a car and drove away.

"Bastards, a bunch of bastards, damned—" Xiang Rong, after finishing the call, couldn't help but curse, scaring Qin Dong next to him to the point of trembling. He had never seen Xiang Rong lose composure like this before, but upon thinking about it, it made sense. Over the years, Ruili City had never experienced such a terrible incident. This matter was not something that could be covered up with a wave of a hand like what happened last night; the higher-ups would certainly know about it. What would be the consequences of the higher-ups knowing?

The answer was obvious—the end of his career as the bureau chief.

"Hmph, you bastards, since you've cut off my financial path, I won't let you have it easy either. You want to play? Then play big, I'll play you to death," Xiang Rong's face twisted menacingly, "Qin Dong, send my order, all officers are on leave. Those not on leave are to be recalled immediately. For the next few days in Ruili City, there will be no rest, rotating shifts, arresting anyone causing trouble in the city, anyone carrying weapons, anyone fighting and not listening, shoot them all."

"Chief, this?" Qin Dong's face turned a bit unpleasant hearing Xiang Rong's orders.

"Huh? Am I the chief or are you the chief?" Xiang Rong glanced at Qin Dong, frowning.

"Of course, it's you!"

"Then why aren't you getting it done?"

"Yes, Chief, I'll get right on it!"

"And the Black Tiger managed to escape?" Liu Mu's face was somber as he looked at the bald-headed man in a black suit in front of him, speaking with displeasure.

"I apologize, Gang Leader, we have already sent people to pursue them. I believe it won't be long before we can kill the Black Tiger!" The man trembled noticeably upon hearing Liu Mu's displeased tone and spoke with a slightly shaky voice.

"I hope it happens as you said, otherwise you know what my methods are!" Liu Mu said plainly, though his tone was mild, it sent chills down one's spine.

"Yes, my subordinates will not disappoint the Gang Leader!" The man cupped his fist towards Liu Mu as he spoke.

"Where is Zhou Xian, where is he now?" Liu Mu asked mildly.

"He hasn't appeared since we started storming the Border City Famous Towers!" The man answered honestly.

"Idiot! Didn't I tell you to keep a good eye on him? And now you're telling me he's disappeared?" Liu Mu slapped the man, shouting angrily.

"It is my incompetence, please punish me, Gang Leader!" The man knelt on one knee before Liu Mu, cupping his fists and lowering his head in submission.

"I never keep incompetent people under me. Since you admit your incompetence, there is no need for me to keep you." Liu Mu looked at the man with cold eyes.

"Spare me, Gang Leader, spare me—" The man fell to both knees, kowtowing and sobbing for mercy.

"In your next life, be a capable person!" Liu Mu whispered, kicking out with lightning speed, piercing the man's throat with the tip of his dress shoe. The next moment, the man fell lifelessly to the ground, eyes wide open, dead without peace.

"Don't blame me, this world is just like this. Without capability, living in this world will only lead to being bullied. In your next life, you will have a better time—" Liu Mu closed the man's eyes gently and said calmly.

"Dispose of it!" Withdrawing his hand, Liu Mu spoke blandly. The walls of his office opened like doors, and four figures, cloaked entirely in black with only their eyes visible, came out, dragging the man's body away.

"The wonderful moment is about to arrive, ah haha—" Watching the city below suddenly erupt into chaos, Liu Mu was extremely pleased, his arrogant laughter lingering in the luxurious and spacious office for a long time.

...

Above Ruili City, dark clouds were pressing down, blackening the sky like a giant black boulder, as if about to crush Ruili City flat.

Above the oppressive dark clouds lay the stratosphere where not a single cloud was present. The golden sunlight, like intoxicating fine wine, was captivating. The churning black clouds below, shimmering with a metallic luster under the sunlight, stretched out in a sea of clouds that seemed endless, morphing into mountains or transforming into giant beasts and specters.

"Pa—" A bolt of lightning flickered across the black clouds, a silver gleam flashing like a thousand-foot-long silver snake darting through the cloud sea.

"Rumble—" The plane roared from afar, its sound reaching above Ruili City from a distance.

The plane soared rapidly like a bird towards this piece of sky.

The plane showed no sign of descending but circled above Ruili City before turning back on its original path.

"Good day, passengers, here is an announcement: Due to the abundance of clouds above Ruili accompanied by lightning, the plane cannot descend. We will now return on our original course. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, and we hope for your understanding!"

The flight attendant's voice was smooth and jade-like, soft and boneless, akin to a gentle zither in an empty valley, or a celestial tune from the ninth heaven...
