Chapter 1487: Chapter 1487: Finale Part Thirty-Five
"None of you will escape tonight!" With a command from the Godfather, the assassins moved uniformly, aiming at the two of them without any reservations.
But Third Young Master Jun and Ying were not ordinary people; even in the world of ’new’, they were beyond other existences, doing things tenfold without breaking a sweat.
Moreover, at this moment, the two of them were fighting side by side, covering for each other, constantly switching attack strategies, leaving those dozens of assassins unable to launch a full assault.
The Godfather’s face darkened further and further; he had trained his two most outstanding creations, only to have them turn against him.
Yet, because they were the best that he had cultivated himself, they had instead become a threat at this moment; no one else could match them, and it was difficult to capture them. He truly didn’t know whether to feel gratified or scorned.
But Third Young Master Jun also knew very well; they were able to cope with ease now because they were relying on their stamina. However, there were only two of them, and as time went on, things would definitely become disadvantageous, especially for him. Due to various injuries over time, his stamina was noticeably lacking. It would be best to hide in the forest, lure the assassins in, use guerrilla tactics, and stall them.
So while fighting and dodging, he watched every direction, listening intently, and finally found an opportunity.
He immediately gave Ying a meaningful glance.
Ying, a seasoned veteran, instantly understood his intention.
The two men coordinated with each other, amidst the smoke and fire of battle, raising the four guns in their hands together, like an avalanche crushing their way through, launching a fierce attack. Bullets flew out, piercing the sky, killing intent blazing, forcing the assassins to retreat continuously.
"Go—" Third Young Master Jun commanded, urgently retreating toward the woods.
Ying threw a smoke bomb from his body, which exploded with a bang, smoke billowing and rolling everywhere, stinging eyes shut. In that moment, the two men disappeared into the woods.
The Godfather’s face turned ashen, eyes burning with raging flames.
...
Third Young Master Jun and Ying entered the forest, not daring to stop for a moment, hastily running through the woods.
Halfway through, Third Young Master Jun’s brow furrowed slightly. Suddenly, he pressed his hand forcefully against his chest. That sudden flare-up, the tearing pain from his internal organs, felt as if countless needles pierced his bones, making the pain unbearable.
Yet he didn’t utter a single groan, continuing to run swiftly with an unchanged expression.
They sprinted madly through the woods; after a while, Ye Lu’s delighted voice came from ahead. She ran out from a cave, rushing up to hug Third Young Master Jun tightly.
The impact made Third Young Master Jun stagger back two steps; he wrapped his arms around her trembling body, gently patting her. Breathlessly, he comforted softly, "Lu’er, I’m fine, don’t be afraid."
"But...the children...our children..." Ye Lu’s heart wrenched in pain, weeping bitterly in his arms. Even if they escaped, what meaning was there.
Her Yuanyuan, her Yiyi; they were her flesh, her blood, her life. Without them, how could she go on living?
She wished she could carry explosives to perish together with the Godfather.
"Don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid. I promise, nothing will happen to Yuanyuan and Yiyi." Third Young Master Jun, seeing her grief-stricken expression, comforted her with a heart full of pain.
Tears still rolled in Ye Lu’s eyes; upon hearing this, she dumbly looked up at him, completely dumbfounded.
"Nothing will happen? What do you mean?"
Third Young Master Jun gave a bitter smile, full of apology, "Lu’er, I’m sorry. To deceive the Godfather, to let him believe his treachery succeeded, I had no choice but to follow the plan back then. I indeed tampered with the goods, but it wasn’t micro-explosives."
Ye Lu’s pupils instantly widened, the sudden reversal of joy stunned her.
