Chapter 44: An Ge

  Under the leadership of Xu Lao Shi, Wu Rui arrived at the old nest of An Ge, the master of Shan Long Bang. It was just a faction leader, but he lived in a well-decorated villa, which showed that this Shan Long Bang was not an ordinary rich man.

  "Wu Shen Yi, I can only take you this far. If the master finds out that I betrayed him, not only will I be punished, but my family will also be implicated. Please, have mercy and let me go!" Xu Lao Shi suddenly knelt down in front of Wu Rui, refusing to take him any further.

  "......You can go!" Wu Rui waved his hand expressionlessly.

  "Wu Shen Yi, you are a good man! I, Xu Lao Shi, will be honest from now on and will no longer do despicable things for the gang!" Xu Lao Shi's eyes suddenly became moist, and he heavily knocked his head against Wu Rui's before getting up from the ground and leaving.

  "Good man?" Wu Rui was somewhat perplexed by this word, but didn't think much of it at the moment. He gave himself a stealthy decision and openly snuck into An Ge's villa.

  The villa also had a lot of guards, but the owner was only one, so Wu Rui didn't have to make too much effort to find the suspected An Ge. He was about 40 years old, with a robust build and an aura of intimidation around him. At this moment, he was sitting in front of his desk on the second floor study, seemingly reviewing something. There were two bodyguards standing in front of and behind him, and there were also two guards stationed outside the study door, making the defense quite strict.

  Wu Rui appeared in stealth mode and went straight to the study, where he used his binding spells to silently immobilize several bodyguards before revealing himself at the desk.

  "...heard the noise, An Ge's vigilance made him turn his head back. When he found that there was an additional ancient-robed youth behind him, he first froze for a moment but quickly reacted and sprang up from his seat with a 'whoosh' sound. At the same time, he pulled out a black handgun and pointed it at Wu Rui, asking: "Who are you?"

  Wu Rui slightly furrowed his brow, as he heard a flurry of footsteps coming from downstairs. It was clear that the bodyguards below had also discovered him, and suddenly felt confused. He lifted his head to take a look, and only then did he realize that there were surveillance cameras in this study. Although Wu Rui was just an ordinary person, he knew that these were monitoring devices.

  Startling the people below, this was not Wu Rui's intention, but things had come to this, and there was nothing that could be done about it. With a flick of his body, he instantly appeared beside An Ge, snatching the gun from his hand before he could react, mimicking the gesture of grabbing a gun, pointing the muzzle at An Ge's head.

  Sweat drops the size of soybeans slid down Ang's forehead, fast! The speed of this young man in a long gown was simply too fast, to the point where he had no chance to counterattack.

  "Release the master!" At this time, the bodyguards below had arrived and saw that the master was being hijacked. They were suddenly anxious, but they all took out their guns and pointed them at Wu Rui.

  Hearing these people call him Tangzhu, Wu Rui had already confirmed that he had found the right person, but still asked: "Are you An Ge?"

  "Not bad, I'm An Ge!" An Ge tried to calm himself down and asked carefully after rolling his eyes a few times: "Friend, what can I do for you? If there's anything that needs help, I'll definitely do my best."

  "Haha!" Wu Rui Le chuckled and said: "There are a few questions I'd like to ask An Tang Zhu, but first, can you have your subordinates withdraw?"

  An Ge's face was uncertain for a moment, unsure whether Wu Rui was telling the truth or not. But thinking of Wu Rui's just-displayed strength, the bodyguards behind him still unmoving, and his ability to quietly sneak into the study, An Ge really didn't dare to easily test himself with his own life. In the end, he still waved his hand at the bodyguards outside the door: "You all retreat first!"

  "Yes, master!"

  After all the bodyguards retreated, An Ge finally forced out a smile and politely said: "Friends, if you have any questions, please ask."

  Wu Rui did not mean to be polite to him, and directly asked in a cold voice: "Was it you who sent Xu Lao Shi to bother me?"

  An Ge's face stiffened, previously he had made several guesses, thinking it was a rival family or an opponent of the Shanlong Gang, at worst just seeking wealth, but he didn't expect it to be because of this. The other party came too quickly and suddenly! But now that they've found him, An Ge couldn't deny it, so he could only smile apologetically: "So, friend, you're actually Wu Shen Yi, I apologize for the disrespect."

  An Ge didn't directly admit it, fearing that it would provoke Wu Rui's anger, but his words had already acknowledged Wu Rui's inquiry, otherwise he wouldn't have called out the title "Wu Shen Yi".

  "Who poisoned him?" Wu Rui's voice grew even colder.

  "This...". An Ke's forehead was already covered with sweat beads the size of soybeans, but he didn't dare to wipe them away and could only let them fall. Under Wu Rui's repeated questioning, he felt inexplicably under great pressure.

  "Is it you?" Wu Rui suddenly asked.

  "...An Ge's face changed, and he suddenly turned around, dodging the gun while trying to capture Wu Rui with his backhand, his movements swift and decisive, a well-rehearsed move."

  "Uh..." But very quickly, An Ge became stunned. He grasped Wu Rui's hand and didn't move or speak. The gun in Wu Rui's hand was still aimed at his head.

  "...through the camera, saw An Ge pointing to a group of bodyguards who had just rushed to the door, seeing the scene inside was also stunned, unable to attack or retreat, each with an awkward expression."

  "Get out!" Wu Rui bellowed at the doorway, his voice sending shockwaves that made the bodyguards outside retreat in succession, their faces pale with fright, and they involuntarily disappeared from in front of the door.

  An Ge's face turned deathly pale, knowing he was done for!

  "Don't play tricks in front of me, or the consequences might be severe!" Wu Rui's voice grew even colder, but he didn't rush to take action, instead continuing to interrogate: "Was it you who poisoned him?"

  "...but I'm just carrying out the orders of our leader!" An Ge compromised, and even brought up their leader Liang Tianlong, in order to divert Wu Rui's hatred towards himself.

  "Why did he want to do this?" Wu Rui continued to ask with an expressionless face, making it impossible for anyone to guess what was on his mind.

  "You not only hurt his trusted aide, Peng Long, but also disrupted his plans, so he wants to target you." An Ge directly sold out Liang Tianlong, in a life-and-death situation, who cares about the boss or the president, sell him out and seek self-preservation.

  "Is that why you're using ordinary people's lives as a bargaining chip?" Wu Rui's anger finally erupted, and he directly pointed the gun at An Ge's head, firing with a loud bang. However, Wu Rui's anger had not dissipated, and seeing An Ge covering his head and crouching down, he immediately kicked out with one foot, with considerable force and a fierce movement.

  "Ah!" An Ge let out a miserable cry, and was directly kicked under the office desk. His forehead was already stained with bright red blood, looking very disheveled.

  Wu Rui remained unmoved and walked over to his side, squatting down with an expressionless face but using a tone that brooked no refusal: "Take me to see your leader!"
