Sure, here is the translation:

The place Bai Le told Lu Yu about is a pretty nice suburban area in Lin'an City. Originally, it was supposed to be developed into a large upscale residential zone, but due to the developer's financial chain breaking down, the boss fled with the money, causing the construction to halt and become a ghost town after being exposed to the elements.

Lu Yu parked the vehicle by the roadside, slowly opened the door, and stepped out towards the ghost town ahead.

He walked slowly, showing no sign of urgency. As the saying goes, "Haste makes waste", the more urgent the matter, the more methodical you must be, otherwise mistakes will surely occur, resulting in the figurative stone falling on your own foot and bringing about your own ruin.

While walking, Lu Yu's gaze scanned both sides of the road. He looked very carefully, as if searching for something.

Lu Yu did so entirely to observe whether Bai Le had sent men to ambush on either side.

This matter was originally for Lu Yu to go solo, to rescue Su Nianxue alone, so he absolutely had to confirm the retreat route was completely safe!

After thoroughly checking both sides of the road and confirming there were no ambushes, Lu Yu then quickened his pace to reach the center of the ghost town.

Phew!

Just as he stepped into the central area of the ghost town, a gust of cold wind blew across his face instantly. It was refreshing with a hint of killing intent, causing one's whole body to tense up and making the hair stand on end.

At this moment, describing this abandoned residential area as a ghost town was not an exaggeration at all!

The unfinished residential towers surrounding him exuded a sense of decay everywhere, the open buildings filled with rubble and dust. When the wind blew through, it produced a sound akin to the wailing of wild ghosts, sounding extremely terrifying!

Just as Lu Yu arrived at the center of the ghost town and raised his eyes, he saw Su Nianxue with her hands tied behind her to an abandoned stone pillar.

Su Nianxue began to struggle violently upon seeing Lu Yu, looking very agitated.

Seeing Su Nianxue like this, Lu Yu was about to take action, but at that moment, his phone rang instantly.

Upon hearing the sound, Lu Yu took out his phone and saw that it was Su Nianxue's number.

Obviously, this call was from Bai Le.

Seeing the caller ID, Lu Yu did not hesitate at all, he immediately pressed the call button and said, "Hello!?"

"Mr. Lu is indeed brave and skilled, actually coming here!"

As soon as the call was connected, Bai Le's voice came through the phone, carrying a sinister tone with traces of playful meaning.

"Cut the crap!"

Speaking coldly, Lu Yu's voice was full of killing intent: "I'm here now, as agreed, let Su Nianxue go!"

His words were icy, his eyes constantly scanning back and forth, searching for Bai Le's figure.

But with the numerous abandoned buildings here, finding a single person was no easy task. After scanning a few times, Lu Yu still did not find Bai Le's figure.

"No problem!"

Hearing Lu Yu's words, Bai Le spoke calmly: "I'll release her right now!"

Bang!

With a muffled sound, a huge gunshot rang out instantly, and then a steel armor-piercing bullet flew directly across, swiftly passing Su Nianxue's wrist!

Swish!

As the bullet flew past, with a soft sound, the rope on Su Nianxue's hands snapped accordingly!

A shot severed the rope!

Seeing the scene before him, Lu Yu could not help but be secretly amazed, Bai Le's shooting skill was indeed as the documents showed, with a precision rate of ninety-seven percent!

It's not hard to break a rope with a single shot, but using a large caliber Barrett M82A1 to sever a rope with a single grazing shot, such shooting skill is genuinely terrifying!

If Bai Le had any help yesterday, he definitely wouldn't have won easily!

After the rope was severed by Bai Le's shot, Su Nianxue immediately freed herself from the stone pillar's bondage and directly ran towards Lu Yu.

"Mr. Lu, I'm sorry for causing you to come here alone because of me…"

Having come to Lu Yu's side, Su Nianxue spoke full of guilt, her words filled with a heavy tone.

"Let's not talk about this now, you know how to drive, right?"

Looking at Su Nianxue before him, Lu Yu spoke, his words heavy in tone.

"Yes"

Hearing this, Su Nianxue nodded and spoke up.

"That's good."

Seeing Su Nianxue's response, Lu Yu discreetly handed his car keys to her and said, "Take the keys, run straight outside, my car is parked outside, drive away directly."

"How is that alright?"

As soon as Lu Yu said this, Su Nianxue spoke: "Mr. Lu, you came to rescue me, how can I…"

"Do as I say, otherwise neither of us will get out of here!"

Before Su Nianxue could finish her sentence, Lu Yu spoke, his words filled with seriousness.

Currently, he already sensed several malicious intents quietly spreading around, approaching him!

Apparently, it's not only Bai Le here; there are more people lurking around!

With Lu Yu saying this, Su Nianxue's body instantly froze, and upon seeing the determined look in Lu Yu's eyes, she immediately understood. She nodded, without any hesitation, and ran behind Lu Yu.

A few minutes later, Lu Yu faintly heard the sound of a car engine, at this moment, confirming Su Nianxue had already left, he flashed his eyes and said, "Friends hiding around, come out, you've long been exposed!"

Swoosh!

Once Lu Yu spoke these words, a large group of people dressed in clothes bearing black crosses suddenly rushed out from all around, encircling Lu Yu in the center, each person's eyes gleaming with killing intent!

Every one of them held a sharp Samurai Sword, the blade shining with cold light, emitting strands of murderous air.

In a detailed count, these people numbered at least fifty!

Looking at these individuals before him, Lu Yu's eyes revealed a hint of coldness, he spoke slowly, "It seems Bai Le has gotten mixed up with the Dark Sanctuary!"

With these words, Lu Yu's muscles tensed up, rising in chunks, his eyes flashing, appearing extremely focused.

He was here solely to rescue Su Nianxue; due to the suddenness of the incident, he hadn't had time or opportunity to prepare and deploy beforehand!

Moreover, somewhere unknown to him, there was a divine archer Bai Le with a precision rate of ninety-seven percent, making things instantly more complicated!
