Chapter 1643: Intimidation and Action

Vesdruff finally couldn’t stand the surprise in his heart and exclaimed, “Assassin? What? You are an assassin?”

“What? Is there anything wrong?” Yang Ming looked up and asked Vesdruff.

“You’re probably just trying to scare me, right?” Vesdruff muttered to himself and laughed, “Don’t think that you are an assassin just because you killed a few people. Do you know what an assassin is?”

Yang Ming was stunned for a moment. He did not expect Vesdruff to be really cautious. His words did not move him. It was completely different from the previous man wearing glasses, Pu Daniu and even Lukowski.

However, this was not surprising. If he was not a calm person, how could he be the deputy leader of the Blackhawk Gang?

“Why? Listening to your words, it seems like Mr. Vesdruff knows the assassin industry very well?” Yang Ming smiled and asked.

“I can’t say that I know, but I’m sure that you know what I do,” Vesdruff said, “As a gang leader, I must understand the assassin industry. Mr. Li Muyi, which organization do you belong to?”

Vesdruff was naturally trying to probe Yang Ming with his words. Naturally, Yang Ming was outstanding for being able to enter his luxury RV while being surrounded, so Vesdruff did not dare to act rashly. He tried to use words to probe Yang Ming’s origin.

However, he did not believe that Yang Ming was an assassin because historically, there were not many well-known assassins in China. Most of the powerful assassins were located in places such as Europe and America. Vesdruff also understood some of the large assassin organizations.

“You wouldn’t know which organization I belong to,” Yang Ming said plainly. “However, on your side, there is an organization called the Hawkeye Assassin Group, right?”

“Hawkeye Assassin Group?” Vesdruff eyes widened and then returned to normal, “We do indeed have a Hawkeye Assassin Group, but why are you bringing up this assassin group? Don’t tell me you are from the Hawkeye Assassin Group, or that you are part of the industry just because you know the Hawkeye Assassin Group?”

“Hawkeye Assassin Group? Of course I am not,” Yang Ming shook his head. “Since you know this assassin group, it is easy to handle.”

“It is easy?” Vesdruff sneered. “If you mentioned this assassin group some time ago, I’ll be afraid no matter what connection you have with them. Maybe I would return the two hostages directly to you. But since you mentioned this Hawkeye Assassin Group now, it is obvious that you are quite badly informed.”

“Connection? Return the hostages directly?” Yang Ming immediately had a strange look on his face, “This assassin group has such a big face?”

“They used to have it,” Vesdruff said without hiding anything. “Although I work in the underworld, I am still very scared of the assassin industry. I will try not to offend them as much as possible. After all, it’s hard to handle if these people are provoked. But now, naturally, I am not scared of this Hawkeye Assassin Group. I might as well tell you that the Hawkeye Assassin Group has been removed from the Russian industry!”

“Removed?” The expression on Yang Ming’s face became even weirder, “So it seems that they have no other presentable assassin other than Delay Man 001? No wonder. It’s already good enough for a third-class assassin group to have a somewhat decent assassin. But as soon as this Delay Man 001 dies, the Hawkeye Assassin Group will be finished.”

“You know Delay Man 001?” Vesdruff was finally a little moved. There are many people who know about the Hawkeye Assassin Group. As long as they mingle in the underworld, they will know a little about it. However, there are not many people who know Delay Man 001. But this is not absolute. After all, Delay Man 001 is the backbone of the Hawkeye Assassin Group; he is very reputable.

“Ah, I naturally know him. He was killed by me,” Yang Ming said plainly.

“Killed by you?” The expression on Vesdruff’s face became more serious. Although he was not convinced, Yang Ming had finally caught his attention, “What evidence do you have?”

“Evidence?” Yang Ming shrugged. “Do I need evidence to show that I killed him?”

“Alright, where did you kill him?” Vesdruff asked with a somber expression. At this moment, his previous disdain toward Yang Ming became vigilance.

“Macao.” Yang Ming didn’t hide it. He looked at Vesdruff indifferently, “Right, in fact, I might as well tell you the reason that I killed him. It is because of a boy named Ouyang Junyuan. He mistreated my woman, so I broke his finger and taught him a lesson. I didn’t expect this boy to be so stubborn. He actually went back to find his elder brother Ouyang Junwei to avenge him. His elder brother also went crazy with him. Not only did he call his old man, Ouyang Kanqi, to come over from Russia, but he also brought their family’s number one assassin, Delay Man 001 to cause trouble for me. It couldn’t be helped. Once and for all, I could only kill his old man and Delay Man 001 together.”

Vesdruff’s face finally changed! The people Yang Ming mentioned were legitimate. Vesdruff obviously knew that the Hawkeye Group was backed by the Ouyang Family, but this secret was not known to everyone. The real name of the helm of Hawkeye Group, Ouyang Kanqi, was especially hidden. Vesdruff only got to know about these secrets because he had some business dealings with the Hawkeye Group. He didn’t think that Yang Ming could inquire about these things if he wasn’t in the industry.

Also, how could Vesdruff not understand the hidden meaning in Yang Ming’s words? Someone as cunning as Vesdruff knew what Yang Ming was suggesting.

How could Yang Ming say it casually? Instead, it was implied, but the meaning was obvious. He had destroyed the entire Hawkeye Assassin Group for a woman, and now he looked for Vesdruff because of two women!

If Vesdruff was not clever and resisted until the end, then Yang Ming would not mind repeating the same move!

“How can I trust you?” Vesdruff finally understood. He was now in a dilemma. The person in front of him was definitely no ordinary person, and he could not use common sense to deal with him. Being careless would cause even greater trouble for the Blackhawk Gang.

However, he wasn’t reconciled to simply hand over the two hostages Chen Mengyan and Chen Mengxi. He still held a trace of doubt in his heart that Yang Ming was just scaring him to deter him.

“Do you not believe it…” Yang Ming shook his head and said, “Actually, it is best if you refuse me now. Then I can take you away or kill you directly, then kill some of the Blackhawk Gang members. I’m not afraid that Victor Rajiv will not compromise…”

The luxury RV’s door opened before Yang Ming could finish his words Jivanov was holding two cups of coffee with a charming expression on his face, and was ready to get into the car, “Mr. Vesdruff, I bought the coffee… Eh? Who are you… Ah…”

Before Jivanov finished talking, he fell straight to the ground. The coffee spilled on the floor, and it almost scalded Vesdruff.

“He interrupted our conversation, so I shut him up. Mr. Vesdruff, you don’t mind, right?” Yang Ming grinned as if he had not done anything at all. But there was some distress in his heart for wasting another flying needle.

Vesdruff was already an experienced person in the field. There were at least eight hundred if not a thousand people who had died in front of him, but he didn’t even blink his eyes at their deaths. But this time, Vesdruff was afraid! Yes, he was really scared!

He didn’t see how Yang Ming had done. It seemed that Yang Ming just gently moved his fingers, and Jivanov turned into a dead body. He didn’t even have a chance to fight back; he died just like that!

Vesdruff quickly glanced at Jivanov’s body. He did not see any signs of trauma at all. However, with Vesdruff’s eyesight, he could see that Jivanov was really dead. He could still distinguish between coma and death!

Vesdruff had talked with Yang Ming for so long. Butor the first time, he broke into a cold sweat!

Chapter 1644: Negotiations and Probing

A chill rose from Vesdruff’s back to the back of his head. After assuming his position, it had been so long since he felt this way. This time, Vesdruff really felt the danger of death. The sense of crisis was very close!

He was confident that he was well experienced as he had gone through hundreds of battles and had a good experience, but he didn’t know how Yang Ming had killed Jivanov. He didn’t even see clearly whether Yang Ming had used any weapons.

This thought made Vesdruff afraid! If Yang Ming had wanted to kill him, he would have already become a dead body like Jivanov.

It is ridiculous that I thought I was very cunning to guard against Yang Ming’s sudden upsurge. I even thought that he was also cautious and did not dare to act rashly without full confidence. But I did not expect that he could kill someone as if it were as simple as yawning, or even easier than yawning!

For the first time, Vesdruff felt the insignificance of his life, the sense of powerlessness that his fate beyond his control! At this moment, there was no need for Yang Ming to say anything. Vesdruff already believed that Yang Ming was an assassin! He also believed that Delay Man 001 and Ouyang Kanqi’s family was killed by the man in front of him.

Vesdruff had no chance of winning against an enemy like this! It was better to compromise as soon as possible. Otherwise, if things got worse, it would be no good for the Blackhawk Gang!

“Mr. Li is joking. It was originally my responsibility to teach a lesson to underlings who don’t know the rules. Now Mr. Li has done the work for me. I can’t wait to thank you, so how could I be offended?” Vesdruff forced a chuckle and said.

Yang Ming sneered. How quickly did your attitude change? Before this, Yang Ming had used his special ability to notice that Jivanov was coming to the luxury RV. So Yang Ming deliberately brought up the topic of how to prove himself, and used the opportunity when Jivanov got in the car to take action.

This way, Yang Ming didn’t need to say more. Vesdruff most probably would not ask such stupid questions again.

“Mr. Vesdruff, should we talk about the two hostages now?” Yang Ming leisurely crossed his legs and laid on the RV’s sofa. His eyes did not look at Vesdruff at all, as if he was not afraid at all that Vesdruff would attack him.

In fact, Yang Ming deliberately did this action to give Vesdruff a high level of psychological pressure. No matter how boastful Yang Ming was, he would not take his life lightly. Although Yang Ming’s eyes did not look in Vesdruff ‘s direction, it did not mean that he was not watching Vesdruff! Yang Ming’s ability was 360-degree vision. Even if he didn’t look in Vesdruff’s direction, he could know what Vesdruff was doing.

Seeing Yang Ming’s attitude, Vesdruff was even more afraid to have any other ideas. Before Vesdruff knew Yang Ming’s ability, he had the thought that Yang Ming was just scaring him. After knowing Yang Ming’s ability, Vesdruff’s only thought was how to send away this great god.

“The matter about the hostages can be easily discussed But Mr. Li, our Blackhawk Gang is also an organization that is well-known internationally.” Vesdruff muttered for a moment and said, “Although the situation is pressing and we have to compromise, can you tell me which organization you belong to? So even if we release the two ladies, others will not say anything about us. Otherwise, the Blackhawk Gang’s reputation will plummet! If we really have to reach that step, then we, the Blackhawk Gang, wouldn’t mind fighting until the end! After all, those who don’t know can’t be blamed. Even if the power behind you is strong, now you are alone…”

“Oh?” Yang Ming narrowed his eyes and looked at Vesdruff strangely. How could he not notice that Vesdruff was just talking big? However, Vesdruff wanted to find a way for the Blackhawk Gang to back off without losing face, “Do you think that you are qualified to fight until the end? I could reach your car without alerting anyone outside. Similarly, I can also reach your house. Or, do you think the people outside can keep me here?”

“This-” Vesdruff was just looking for a way to back off while saving the gang’s face, but he didn’t expect Yang Ming to give no face at all. His face flushed. He couldn’t take such a stupid action like asking the Blackhawk Gang to fight recklessly with Yang Ming.

“But if you want to know, it’s okay to tell you,” Yang Ming said plainly. “I’m from the Butterfly Family. As for whether you have heard of it, I don’t need to tell you anything more.”

“Butterfly Family!” When Vesdruff heard this name, his face turned pale! How could he not know the assassin world’s famous Butterfly Family? Initially, Vesdruff was still thinking about whether it was possible to keep Yang Ming here. Anyway, Yang Ming was alone now. No matter how powerful he was, he was still outnumbered. Vesdruff just had to find some ways to keep him here forever. However, when Vesdruff heard that Yang Ming came from the Butterfly Family, a bucket of cold water seemed to pour down his forehead. He was somber now. He completely discarded these unrealistic thoughts. He didn’t dare to have such thoughts anymore!

The Butterfly Family was the most terrifying existence in legend. If the Hawkeye Group was still well-known in Russia, it was not even worth mentioning compared to the Butterfly Family.

“Europe, Ello Town, Butterfly Castle?” Vesdruff asked carefully.

“You know a lot,” Yang Ming looked at Vesdruff with a spurious smile.

“I was fortunate to see the Butterfly Family’s family master in the past. I wonder if the old man is okay?” Vesdruff asked tentatively.

“Uncle Wang is in good health, you don’t need to worry about it.” Yang Ming replied plainly. He knew that Vesdruff wanted to confirm one last time whether he had anything to do with the Butterfly Family, so he simply continued, “Butler Mu is also very good. What else do you want to know?”

“This-” Vesdruff noticed that Yang Ming saw through his intentions, and was a little embarrassed. He forced a cough twice, “There’s nothing else. I just wanted to send a greeting…”

However, Vesdruff was also completely certain that Yang Ming was indeed from the Butterfly Family. Otherwise, it would be impossible to know the surname of the Butterfly Family’s family master and Butler Mu!

“Well, we have talked a lot of nonsense. My patience is limited. When will the hostages be brought to me?” Yang Ming waved his hand impatiently and questioned Vesdruff.

Yang Ming chose to employ kindness to resolve this negotiation as he also had some concerns. According to Yang Ming’s style of work and current ability, he could completely annihilate the Blackhawk Gang in one fell swoop.

However, Yang Ming could not guarantee that the Blackhawk Gang would not have any backup plan and not harm Chen Mengyan if they became desperate. Therefore, Yang Ming dared not to take risks easily. Moreover, this negotiation using intimidation was also the fastest solution. Yang Ming did not have much time to spare. It was related to Chen Mengyan’s safety, so Yang Ming did not want to make any mistakes.

As for the Blackhawk Gang, it had nothing to do with Yang Ming. Yang Ming didn’t mind letting them go as long as they no longer troubled him or did evil in his territory. As long as they don’t come to China’s Song Jiang to cause trouble, then even if they demolished Meitena Town, it would have nothing to do with Yang Ming.

“Since we are clear now, we, the Blackhawk Gang, will definitely return the hostages to Mr. Li.” Vesdruff said, “We also do not want to offend a terrifying existence such as the Butterfly Family. However, Mr. Li, you know that these two people are our bargaining chips for the Song Jiang police. If I give it to you, we will lose our qualifications to negotiate with the Song Jiang police… ”

“You mean, you are not ready to release them? Or do you want to bargain with me?” Yang Ming’s expression suddenly turned serious and he looked at Vesdruff coldly. His voice gave Vesdruff a chill down his spine.
