Inside Jiang Angge's villa, Ye Qing slowly put down the phone in his hand, a sly smile playing at the corners of his mouth.

He turned his head, looked at Jiang Angge in front of him, and smiled slightly, saying, "It seems this Lu Yu isn't as formidable as you all claim. Such a simple self-made device can make him so angry; looks like he's just incompetent."

With these words, Ye Qing picked up a bottle of alcohol smugly, took a big gulp, and said calmly, his words dripping with arrogance, exuding a sense of haughtiness.

"It's best not to be complacent."

Upon hearing Ye Qing's incredibly arrogant words, Jiang Angge spoke in a rather steady voice: "It's an indisputable fact that Lu Yu could take down two bodyguards who were former special forces with just a flick of his wrist. Perhaps his skills are not on par with yours, but you absolutely must not underestimate him. This guy is not ordinary!"

Having navigated the business world for a long time, Jiang Angge was no idiot; the sense of danger of being targeted by a venomous snake was something he had personally experienced, so now Jiang Angge was extremely cautious.

"Third Brother Jiang, didn't you say yourself that this guy is just a wildcard?"

Hearing Jiang Angge's words, Ye Qing responded, "Since he's a wildcard, it's normal for him to lack professionalism. Honestly, from what happened today, I can tell that this guy is definitely not my match. This time, I can easily toy with him to death!"

In his words, Ye Qing's eyes shone with a cold glint, full of confidence and a hint of disdain, not taking Lu Yu seriously at all.

"Ye Qing, do you know that Lu Yu once told me something? Now that I think back on it, I find it very reasonable. Do you want to hear it?"

Seeing the utterly arrogant expression on Ye Qing's face, Jiang Angge spoke, his words filled with gravity.

"Let's hear it."

Upon hearing this, Ye Qing took another swig of alcohol and replied, his words full of mockery.

"There's always a higher mountain and a higher sky!"

Hearing Ye Qing's words, Jiang Angge said, "That's what Lu Yu told me. I hope you can take it seriously. Remember, even a lion uses all its strength to hunt a rabbit. Never be careless."

In his words, Jiang Angge spoke with composure, filled with the steadiness of a young man seasoned by the business world.

Although he seemed meek under the fierce aura of Lu Yu, this didn't mean Jiang Angge was a fool!

"Third Brother Jiang, have you been scared by that guy Lu Yu?"

Hearing Jiang Angge's words, Ye Qing responded dismissively: "Strength determines everything. A gap is a gap; thinking that this wildcard can compete with me is simply dreaming!"

"Ye Qing, I know you come from a formal military background, calm, composed, and powerful, not taking this wildcard Lu Yu seriously, but no matter how you look at it, this saying holds true."

Jiang Angge spoke earnestly, as Jiang Tianyi had entrusted him with overseeing the situation in Lin'an City, with stability as the top priority.

"Alright, Third Brother Jiang."

Hearing this, Ye Qing smiled slightly, looking at Jiang Angge in front of him, and said, "Rest assured, Lu Yu is definitely not my match. This time, I'll definitely bring him to you so you can see the difference between formal training and a wildcard!"

In his words, Ye Qing was arrogant and conceited, exuding utmost confidence.

This confidence left Jiang Angge feeling helpless inside.

...

While Jiang Angge and Ye Qing were still bickering, in Lin'an City, inside a small bar that operated during the day.

At this moment, Luo Lie was wearing a black T-shirt, his well-built physique emphasized by the shirt, exuding masculinity, but with an undercurrent of calm.

Beside him was an unopened bottle of Johnnie Walker Black Label, emanating a sense of steadiness.

"You're here early."

As Luo Lie was deep in thought, a familiar voice came, and as he looked up, he saw Lu Yu walking over slowly, sitting across from him with a veneer of indifference.

"I just got here not long ago."

Hearing Lu Yu's words, Luo Lie smiled, then raised his right hand and snapped his fingers, saying, "Two old-fashioned glasses, and a small plate of ice cubes."

Hearing Luo Lie's words, the bartender place two old-fashioned glasses and a small plate of ice cubes in front of Lu Yu and Luo Lie.

"Now that your Assassin Alliance and our Shadow Sword have allied, we're considered allies, let's have a drink."

Setting the old-fashioned glasses, adding some ice cubes, Luo Lie opened the Black Label, poured a third for both himself and Lu Yu, and said calmly, "Come on, let's toast to our alliance."

Hearing this, Lu Yu picked up the glass in front of him, clinked it lightly with Luo Lie's, took a sip, and said, "Do me a favor!"

In his words, Lu Yu's eyes were intense, with a hint of solemnity.

"What favor? We're allies; helping each other is natural. What is it?"

Hearing Lu Yu's words, Luo Lie's expression shifted slightly, then he spoke.

"Just now, I was in the Victory Group's security office when someone delivered a self-made..."

Upon hearing this, Lu Yu said calmly, "The opponent's methods and process were perfect; it's a seasoned pro, and they were provoking verbally. I suspect it's someone Jiang Angge called over from the Capital. Use your Shadow Sword's database to help me check if any experts from the Capital have arrived in Lin'an recently."

In his words, Lu Yu swirled the drink in the old-fashioned glass in his hand, his face full of a devilish charm.

"Checking for you is not a problem."

Hearing this, Luo Lie said, "But I want to ask, if you do find out, how do you plan to deal with him?"

In his words, Luo Lie's tone was curious, wanting to know how Lu Yu planned to handle this situation.

"Very simple."

Hearing this, Lu Yu took a sip of his drink, then said, "What I hate the most are pretentious challenges and such reckless gestures."

"Once you find his information, hand it to me. This time, I want him to know when it comes to craftsmanship, I'm his ancestor!"

In his words, Lu Yu's demeanor was calm, without much emotional fluctuation, looking extremely composed.

But now, Luo Lie could sense from Lu Yu's words a heavy aura of killing intent. Clearly, Lu Yu was very displeased with the person who sent him the device!

Lu Yu's approach was to repay in kind; since the other party wanted to play, then he'd see it through to the end!
