Meng Xian nodded in agreement, as there would not be any casualties now. Especially since they had more people on their side, they could potentially annihilate Zhao Yu and his group, albeit at a cost.
âHow can I be sure that after we leave, you wonât come after us?â
âDo you want me to write a letter of commitment?â Zhao Yu replied with a hint of amusement.
If they spared Zhao Yu today, he might gather more members from the Re Zhao Corporation to retaliate in the future.
âI believe the only assurance I can provide is my promise.â
âI promise not to pursue any grievances against you in the future, nor will 1 report todayâs events to the Re Zhao Corporation/â Seeming to grasp her concerns, Zhao Yu said.
A promise?!
Meng Xian was unsure of the significance of his words.
âThe weight of my promise isnât about whether I can fulfill it, but how powerful you are.â Zhao Yu continued.
âHow powerful am 1?â Meng Xian seemed to grasp his meaning.
âExactly,â
âCome on, show me. Letâs see how strong a level-three enhancer is and if you can assassinate me, even amidst a crowd.â Zhao Yu nodded.
The stronger she was, the more valid Zhao Yuâs promise would be.
Even if everyone from her base died, she would still come to assassinate Zhao Yu on her own.
âI get it.â
Meng Xian nodded and signaled her people to disperse.
Soon, the crowd spread out.
âI am a third-level strength and agility dual enhancer. 1 can dodge bullets and kill with my bare hands.â Meng Xian proclaimed.
She casually tossed the handgun from her waist to Xiao Liu, instructing him, âShoot at me until rhe magazine is empty!â
âWhat?!â
With the short distance of only six or seven meters between them.
âSister Meng, at this distance, would it beâŠâ
âShoot!â Meng Xian frowned and shouted coldly.
She was well aware that the stronger she appeared at this moment, the more fearful Zhao Yu would be of her retaliation, which would make him more likely to keep his promise.
On the other hand, if she didnât instill any fear in Zhao Yu, the chances of him seeking revenge in the future would be greater.
Though it was frustrating, violence is the law now at this era.
Compared to her, Zhao Yu on his own was insignificant; even someone like Xiao Liu could easily take him down.
However, he had the Re Zhao Corporation and a brother powerful enough to place him in a leading position within the group.
That was his strongest base card!
âHere it comes!â
Biting his lip, Xiao Liu gave a couple of warnings before finally pulling the trigger.
âBang-ââ âBang-â âBang-ââ
Eight consecutive gunshots rang out.
Meng Xian stood her ground, her feet firmly planted. Her upper body seemed to produce illusions, flickering continuously.
As the gunshots ceased, the illusions converged back into one, and she returned to a standing position.
Looking at her from head to toe, she was completely unscathed!
âDodging bullets on the spot?!â
Zhao Yu hadnât expected a level three enhancer to be this formidable.
Dodging bullets from just five or six meters away?!
Meng Xian felt a bit uneasy at the moment, fearing that Zhao Yu would see through their ruse.
Back in their camp, she had trained Xiao Liuâs evasion skills using a handgun to attack him. However, they werenât this close during training.
To prevent serious harm to Xiao Liu, they had agreed that the eight bullets would be fired in a fixed sequence.
This way, even if Xiao Liu couldnât dodge, he wouldnât get severely injured.
To her relief, Xiao Liu had understood her hint and had fired the bullets in the same sequence they practiced.
After all, dodging bullets in sequence versus dodging them randomly posed different challenges. With her current strength, evading bullets from five to six meters away without moving was extremely difficult.
Upon seeing the shock in Zhao Yuâs eyes, Meng Xian breathed a sigh of relief. She understood that Zhao Yu probably wouldnât act recklessly and would adhere to their agreement.
âIs this the capability of a third-level enhancer?!â Zhao Yu suddenly became interested in the elixir.
If he also had the power of a third-level enhancer, his safety would be greatly enhanced.
âHow about that?!â Meng Xian asked with a smile on her face.
âLeader Meng has impressive sldlls.â Zhao Yu responded. âI will act as if nothing happened today and will also erase the surveillance footage from the baseâŠâ
âGood, Our deal has been sealed!â
Meng Xian laughed heartily, feeling as if a huge weight had been lifted off her shoulders.
âNow that weâve reached an agreement, shouldnât we put our guns down? What if thereâs an accidental discharge?!â
To be honest, she was genuinely afraid that Zhao Yuâs side might recklessly open fire. While she might not die, many of the people she brought with her could suffer severe casualties.
âAgreed!â
Zhao Yu nodded and directly ordered, âEveryone, attention!â
âRoger!â
All the soldiers promptly bolstered their weapons and stood upright. Their uniform and coordinated movements produced a crisp sound.
With just that gesture, Meng Xian and her team were surprised.
âThese are indeed troops from a major force, well-trainedâŠâ
âMy goodness, these soldiers are trained like robots, only following ordersâŠâ
Meanwhile, Meng Xian began to admire Zhao Yu for his audacity in ordering his men to stand down first.
She turned to her teammates who were still in a state of shock, and said with a frown, âWhat are you all waiting for? Holster your weapons!â
