My Scheming Little Devil-Chapter 994: At All Costs

"Grandfather can’t be contacted; he’s missing and I’m afraid he might have been attacked."

Ling Yan’s face turned deathly pale as he suddenly spun the steering wheel and slammed on the accelerator, rushing out in the wrong direction on the return loop—a wildly crazy action.

Ye Lu was shocked, turning his head to see that Ling Yan’s face was ghastly white, and his usually calm and peaceful demeanor was no longer serene, as if he had encountered some major urgent matter.

"We’re now on the overpass; I can’t let you off. I have a very urgent matter and must race against time," Ling Yan said, his tone still revealing his panic, yet he gave Ye Lu an explanation.

Ye Lu shook his head, knowing that whatever could make this man show such panic must be incredibly pressing.

"Go and take care of your business first, I’m fine," he said.

...

In the night, the suburbs witnessed a heart-stopping and intense firefight that lasted for more than ten minutes, yet it felt as long as a century. Both sides engaged in a shoot-out on the road, bullets raining down. Whether it was Third Young Master Jun’s group or the opposing bodyguards, all were battle-hardened, well-trained warriors.

Even in a sudden bloody battle, both sides remained fearless, executing their attacks and counterattacks methodically.

Thus, not only did Old Ling’s people suffer heavy casualties, Third Young Master Jun’s side also lost a lot of manpower, with the battle being more dangerous and difficult than imagined.

Old Ling’s subordinates were extremely tenacious and willing to pay any price to protect him.

In an effort to facilitate Old Ling’s escape, the last remaining bodyguard in the vehicle behind them, eyes bloodshot, charged toward them in a frenzy, detonating the car’s self-destruct device. The massive explosion and smoke forced Third Young Master Jun and his men to scatter quickly and hit the ground while several mercenaries were blown to pieces.

In those few seconds, Old Ling’s car managed to make a getaway, charging forward through the smoke like a frenzied lion.

Third Young Master Jun’s face changed dramatically, ignoring the tearing pain on his shoulder and back from hitting the ground due to the blast. He gave a sharp order to pursue, and he was the first to jump into Lie Feng’s vehicle which charged down from the hillside woods.

"No matter what, we must intercept him," Third Young Master Jun said with half of his face covered in sweat, the other half in blood—his voice as cold as purgatorial flames, his bottomless eyes filled with relentless frenzy.

After such a massive action, if they failed to achieve their goal, it was inevitable that Old Ling would find out, with unimaginable consequences.

Therefore, Old Ling had to die. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

Third Young Master Jun watched the furiously speeding car escaping ahead, his eyes sharp and his mind racing. Old Ling’s car was also top-of-the-line, making it nearly impossible to catch up in a short time.

However, time was running out for him. Once they left the designated area, the communication jamming system would become ineffective, and reinforcements would soon arrive. Therefore, the matter needed to be resolved swiftly; they couldn’t allow the car to keep running.

Third Young Master Jun’s eyes flashed sharply, and he quickly picked up a large sniper rifle from the passenger seat, loading it with a sharp and uniquely designed bullet.

Then he opened the car window.

Feiyu’s face changed drastically: "Third Young Master, what are you doing? It’s too dangerous to reach out, just open the small gun ports inside the car!"

But Third Young Master Jun did not heed him. Instead, his expression quickly became cool, and he held the heavy gun, risking extending it out the window.

There was no other way, as the small gun ports on the vehicle were all fixed in a certain direction, and to hit the target’s rear tires, he needed to use the weapon with more flexibility.

Third Young Master Jun aimed at Old Ling’s rear right tire and with a loud bang, the sharp bullet tore through the air.
