Chapter 48

Star Han quickly arrived at the conference hall, and soon Sun Zihao and the others arrived as well. Everyone was in a hurry and had a solemn expression. Hearing such news, no one could feel happy.

Perhaps everything had been going too smoothly for the Dragon Kill Society recently, and they had been immersed in the aura of victory. Suddenly hearing such news left them all a little lost.

After everyone had taken their seats, Star Han asked Yu Ling to give a detailed account of the situation. Yu Ling explained everything in detail.

It turned out that as soon as Zhang Yi and his group arrived in Feng City, someone came to pick them up, claiming to be from a gang that wanted to help them. Without suspecting anything, they followed that person to their accommodation. After arranging them in a luxurious villa, the person left, using the excuse that it was getting late and they would discuss matters the next day.

After settling down, everyone felt tired and ready to rest. Only Lin Xin, who had a good friend in Feng City, decided to visit her. She took a car from the villa and went alone. However, she couldn't find her friend at the given address, so she immediately returned.

Little did she know that as soon as her car reached the gate of the villa, Su Lina, Wang Jing, Xu Xiaofang, and Li Mei, who had stayed behind at the villa, suddenly fell from the sky one after another. Su Lina, who fell to the ground first, managed to say to Lin Xin, "Run!" before losing consciousness. The others fell unconscious as soon as they landed.

Lin Xin reacted quickly. Although she didn't know what was happening, she immediately moved the four unconscious women into the car and drove away. True to her intuition, gunshots could be heard from behind as she fled. Fortunately, she managed to escape in time.

However, she didn't dare to stay in a hotel with four unconscious women, so she had been driving around, trying to find a safe place. She immediately called Yu Ling to inform her of the situation. However, she wasn't sure about the specifics.

After listening to Lin Xin's account, Star Han and the others couldn't figure out what had happened. Star Han looked at his subordinates and asked, "What do you think?"

He had gotten used to seeking their opinions before making decisions. After hearing their thoughts, Sun Zihao expressed caution, "I think we shouldn't take any action for now. We don't know what exactly happened. It seems like they were captured without resistance, and we don't have any intelligence on this. Sun Zi once said, 'Know yourself, know your enemy, and you shall not be defeated in a hundred battles.' With the situation unclear, how can we act blindly?"

He quoted the words of their ancestors, and everyone nodded in agreement. Yu Ling added, "For now, only a few of them have been captured. Maybe they were killed, but the Dragon Kill Society can still continue. If the leader is captured, the society would be in serious trouble. I think the leader should not take unnecessary risks."

Yu Ling's words sent shivers down everyone's spines. Indeed, the Dragon Kill Society was established by Star Han himself. Without him and with an opponent like the Hua family, there wouldn't be much hope for the society.

Yu Long, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke up, "I contacted the people we sent to Feng City earlier, but there's been no news from them either. I suspect that their situation is dire as well. It was probably a trap from the beginning, with someone pretending to help us and luring us in, eliminating those who arrived first, and then waiting for us to fall into the trap. But they didn't expect Lin Xin's unexpected move, which prevented them from succeeding."

Intelligence was under Yu Long's jurisdiction, so if she couldn't contact them, it was highly unlikely that the rest of the Dragon Kill Society members could be reached. If the situation was as she described, it would be even more chilling. They had fallen into the enemy's trap and had been completely oblivious. Perhaps their vigilance had been weakened due to recent successes without any major setbacks.

After listening to everyone, Star Han felt even heavier in his heart. The current situation, although partly unpredictable, was primarily a result of their complacency. As the leader, he should have ensured a clear understanding of the situation in Feng City before sending them or gone with them. Perhaps that would have been better. He blamed himself first and foremost:

"It's my fault that this happened. I should have had a better understanding of the situation in Feng City before sending them there. Or I should have gone with them. It might have been better."

Yu Ling and the Yu sisters quickly comforted him, but they also reflected on their own responsibilities. This was the charm of Star Han as a leader. A good leader could only win the loyalty of their subordinates if they held themselves to high standards.

At this moment, Star Han felt troubled. This was not just a facade. Both Zhang Yi and Liu Qinwei were his trusted aides, and losing both of them was heart-wrenching. Although there was no news yet suggesting that they had been killed, and considering the unconsciousness of Su Lina and the others, they might still be safe, the situation was unpredictable.

What troubled Star Han even more was whether he should go to Feng City or not. If he went, he might fall into the enemy's trap. But if he didn't go, what would happen to Zhang Yi and Liu Qinwei? However, Yu Long was right. If he himself were captured, it wouldn't just be a problem for him and a few others. The entire Dragon Kill Society would be in jeopardy.

While Star Han hesitated and struggled to make a decision, Yu Ling's phone rang. Yu Ling glanced at it and said to Star Han, "It's Lin Xin!"

Upon hearing this, Star Han immediately gestured for her to answer the call. After the call connected, Lin Xin said, "Lina and the others woke up!"

Yu Ling responded excitedly, "Oh, that's great! Do you know what happened last night?"

"I know!" Lin Xin said. She went on to recount the events of the previous night.

After Lin Xin left yesterday evening, Su Lina and the other three didn't immediately rest. Instead, they were organizing their special equipment, which they called the "Flying Eagle Suit." They had named it after hearing about the Butterfly Gang; if the other side was a butterfly, they would be the eagles. This was a regular activity for them because if they needed to use the equipment the next day, they would inspect it the previous night.

At that moment, they heard a strange chanting sound. The sound wasn't particularly loud, but along with it came a purplish smoke that drifted towards them. After inhaling a bit of the smoke, they immediately felt dizzy. Fortunately, they had some experience with mental clarity techniques and didn't lose consciousness right away. They realized that the situation was dire and immediately put on the "Flying Eagle Suits," activating the jet devices on their backs. They flew directly from the second floor of the house to the outside wall. The rest of the story was as Lin Xin had previously described.

After hearing Lin Xin's account, Star Han made up his mind. He took the phone from Yu Ling and said to Lin Xin, "Well done. Now, you and the others find a safe place to rest. The four of them are probably not in good shape mentally. Let them recuperate. I'll contact you soon."

Lin Xin acknowledged, and Star Han ended the call. He told Yu Ling and Yu Long, "Get ready, we're heading to Feng City. I refuse to believe that we can't handle the Butterfly Gang."

Without wasting time, Yu Ling and Yu Long immediately started preparing. Sun Zihao spoke up at this moment, "Master, are you sure you want to reconsider?"

"Since they want me to go, I'll go as they wish. I don't believe that a little drug can overpower me with my current abilities. Besides, I think Zhang Yi and Liu Qinwei may still be fine for now. Speed is of the essence. If I go to rescue them now, there might still be a chance. If we delay, it could be too late," Star Han said resolutely.

"Of course, as the leader, if that's what you decide, I won't say more. However, I want to go with you!" Sun Zihao said.

"No, Zihao, you know that besides me, only you can hold the fort in the Dragon Kill Society right now. If we all go, the society will be in chaos. You will have to work a bit harder and guard our headquarters. I don't trust anyone else," Star Han replied.

"Alright! Don't worry, I'll take care of everything here. You focus on the frontline," Sun Zihao assured him.

Soon, Yu Ling, Yu Long, and the others were ready. Star Han didn't say goodbye to Yu Ya and entrusted Sun Zihao with delivering the message. They immediately headed to Feng City without further delay.
