An uproar overwhelmed the outside world while public opinions online condemned the country.
What Hal did back then was so outrageous that only his death could quell public anger.
Those who were in power actually deceived all the people in the country, going against the majority.
The ruler behind the high walls in the capital was restless now.
The matter could cause either minor or serious consequences. The point was that Blood Wolf made the request at this critical juncture obviously because he wanted to embarrass the Huaxia government with the public opinions.
The amiable old man rushed to the quadrangle dwellings in suburban areas of the capital in a hurry.
“Elder Long, how should I handle this matter?” the amiable old man asked, his hair grey, a worried expression on his face.
However, the elder kept watering and fertilizing his plants leisurely.
“Don’t worry. Golden Wolf Mercenary won’t survive long. Since they have kidnapped that lad’s woman, they won’t make it to tomorrow, given that lad’s character,” the elder said slowly, sounding like he enjoyed watching the fun very much.
“Is he so powerful?” the amiable old man wondered.
“Take it easy. This matter is unworthy of being mentioned. Relax and have tea. Let’s wait and see if changes occur.” the elder wiped his hands and poured himself and the amiable old man two cups of tea.
...
...
Azure Dragon and his teammates broke out in cold sweat.
“Consent to his request and ask him what his second request is,” said Chu Xun with an indifferent expression. However, the people present knew that the power behind his expression could destroy everything.
Golden Monkey dared not to say anything toward Chu Xun’s words but said to Blood Wolf, “Okay, we consent to your first request. What’s your second request?”
“Haha ... You Huaxia people are really wise to suit your actions to the time.” Blood Wolf laughed arrogantly with contempt in his eyes. Now, the eastern world was no longer mysterious in his eyes. People always warned him not to offend Huaxia for he could not bear the consequences. However, now, he thought Huaxia was nothing great.
“We can’t give Hal to them. We must execute that bastard.”
“Calm down. The thugs have kidnapped so many people. It’s not worthy to sacrifice so many people just to take Hal’s humble life.”
“Yes, it’s more important to save out our siblings first. Nothing is worth more than life.”
Golden Monkey’s words caused a heated debate online. Some people thought Hal should be killed while some people thought it was more important to save out the hostages first. The two groups of people argued fiercely.
“That’s enough. Stop arguing. Let’s see what the second request of Golden Wolf Mercenary is.”
Someone commented, upon seeing which people stopped arguing.
“My dear Master Monkey, my second request is that I want you to give a person to me.”
“My grandson, tell me, who is it?”
Everyone was waiting to see if the second request would be even more explosive.
“He is named Chu Xun and lives in Gujiang City in Huaxia Country. Tell him to bring Hal here alone to exchange for your hostages,” said Blood Wolf loudly.
The audience was stunned by the words and wondered who Chu Xun was.
Azure Dragon and others could not help but look at Chu Xun with a weird expression.
Chu Xun’s calm eyes showed a slight fluctuation of emotions, and then they became emotionless again. Yet, he looking calm did not mean he was in a peaceful state. His mind worked fast as he tried to find out why Blood Wolf wanted him to go to him as they had no connection. Moreover, as Chu Xun watched the screen, he spotted a trace of killing intent from Blood Wolf’s eyes when Blood Wolf mentioned his name.
The only explanation was that the wirepuller took action. To deal with Chu Xun, the wirepuller even hired mercenaries, which in turn proved that the wirepuller was very powerful.
“Ask him where and when to meet him.” Chu Xun reminded Golden Monkey.
If one listened to the words carefully, he would notice the excitement in Chu Xun’s tone. That was because every time the wirepuller took action against Chu Xun, Chu Xun would be one step closer to finding his parents.
“We consent to your second request as well, but you must promise you’ll keep the hostages safe. Otherwise, the deal will be canceled, and we’ll hunt you wherever you go until you or we die.” Golden Monkey’s voice sounded cold.
“Haha... Master Monkey, Golden Wolf Mercenary is a gang of honor.” After saying this, Blood Wolf wore a serious expression and sneered coldly before continuing, “But I’m not very satisfied with your attitude. Do you think my men and I are pigs and sheep to be slaughtered? Don’t forget that I have the final say. To remind you not to play tricks, I’ll show our power to you.”
Seeing Blood Wolf’s bloodthirsty smile, everyone felt uneasy.
All of a sudden, the camera turned to focus on more than a hundred people, men and women, the young and the old. They clung together and trembled in terror under the threat of the members of Golden Wolf Mercenary, who were armed with guns.
Blood Wolf held a strange-looking weapon in his hand, which looked like a large-sized water pistol that children played with.
“Who should I choose?” Blood Wolf looked at the hostages critically as if he were selecting goods in a supermarket.
“I’ll choose you then.”
Blood Wolf pointed at an oriental man who wore glasses.
Two members of Golden Wolf Mercenary walked to the man and dragged him ten meters away.
Faced with a group of vicious thugs, the skinny man with glasses was frightened and made no struggle. However, all the people could tell that it was useless for him to struggle. He was no match for the two well-built men, and there was a huge gap between their power.
Blood Wolf raised the strange-looking gun and pointed it at the man with glasses, grinning and showing his chilling white teeth to the camera. “Dear friends from Huaxia and from all over the world, now I will show you the weapon we newly developed. It’s called Pulse Thunder Gun.”
Seeing Blood Wolf raise the gun, the two members of Golden Wolf Mercenary quickly ran to other sides and looked frightened.
The next moment, blue light emitted from the muzzle of the gun. However, it was a ball of blue electric current in fact.
Buzz...
Shot by the gun, the man with glasses screamed in pain, and his body withered quickly, looking like withered old trees. The skin all over his body turned dark, and as electric currents spread around his body, there were crackling sounds.
Just in the blink of an eye, the man with glasses died, and died so miserably.

Blue veins kept jumping on the temples of Azure Dragon and others, and they felt their organs were burning with anger.
While they were in a fury, they did not want to admit that they were in fear as well. The gun was so powerful that if they were faced with it, they possibly would die.
Besides, it was no longer a simple case about terrorists hijacking a plane. It was impossible that a group of mercenaries could develop such a powerful weapon.
Some people had guessed that Golden Wolf Mercenary was secretly supported by a country.
Otherwise, they would not have dared to challenge a great country directly, no matter how bold they were.
“Bastards! We must kill these bastards!”
“How dare these dogs bark at Huaxia! Fetch a brick and beat them to death!”
“Give me 3,000 urban management staff, and I’ll wipe them out.”
“Anyone who attacks Huaxia will be killed no matter how far the target is!”
Blood Wolf killing the man with glasses caused a violent uproar online.
Golden Monkey remained silent, exuding a chilling aura. He had not expected that his careless words would cause the innocent man with glasses to be killed.
“They have an advanced jammer with them, so I can’t locate them specifically.” Jade Rabbit’s milk-white cheeks turned red with anger.
“No need to locate them,” Chu Xun said indifferently.
He took the interphone and stared at Blood Wolf on the screen.
“Where to meet you?”
Blood Wolf was visibly stunned because he found the voice different from the previous one.
“Who are you?” Blood Wolf frowned and asked.
The voice made him feel uneasy. Though it was just his hunch, it saved his life many times.
Nevertheless, he soon shook his head and laughed at himself. “It’s so ridiculous that I felt terrified at a voice.”
“It doesn’t matter who I’m. What matters is that we consent to all your requests. Tell me, where to meet you?”
Blood Wolf was not interested in the voice. He cursed before replying loudly, “Tell Chu Xun to bring Hal to Yungui City. After that, I’ll tell him what to do the next.”
Blood Wolf paused for a moment and continued, “One more thing. There must be a webcast when Chu Xun set off with Hal. I must watch them.”
“No problem! See you in Yungui City.”
After saying this, Chu Xun turned off the microphone neatly.
On the screen, Blood Wolf was visibly amazed. His lips moved, seemingly swearing.
Chu Xun looked at Azure Dragon.
Azure Dragon put on a serious expression, bowed slightly toward Chu Xun, and walked away to make phone calls and give out orders.
About ten minutes later, Azure Dragon received a call and walked back. He said respectfully to Chu Xun, “Senior, everything is ready.”
“Let’s set off then.”
Chu Xun did say anything more but got up and walked out.
Azure Dragon gestured at other members of the 12 Chinese Zodiacs, who followed Chu Xun and left.
Qi Huang, Qin Huanyu, and Xu Haoliang were the only three men left there.
Qi Huang’s eyes flickered. He made a phone call in secret and walked away.
...
...
It took five hours to go to Yungui City from Gujiang City by plane.
Azure Dragon and his teammates, of course, took a military plane instead of a commercial plane. As the military plane was faster, it would only take them four hours to arrive in Yungui City.
Hal was brought over. Having been secretly put into prison for three years, this western thug still bore a furious aura, which could be seen from his arrogant manner.
Since Blood Wolf requested them to webcast the whole journey, Jade Rabbit became a host of the webcast.
People all over the world could watch the broadcast through satellites.
“Hurry up... shoot my face.” As Hal yelled, a two-meter-tall figure appeared on the screen.
“Hi! My dear friend, how are you doing?” Blood Wolf greeted Hal through the camera.
Hal grinned when he saw Blood Wolf. He then said, “Dear Wolf, I knew you would save me out. The funny Huaxia Country is so weak. I have eaten well and slept well in the past three years. They treated me as if I were their grandpa, haha...”
The faces of Azure Dragon and others turned dark with anger. Jade Rabbit moved the camera away from Hal’s face angrily.
“Hey, girl, shoot my face, or I’ll tell Blood Wolf to add one more request—let you sleep with me for one night so that you can enjoy that fantastic feeling. Haha...” Hal showed an evil expression and grinned strangely with his murky eyes fixed at Jade Rabbit’s plump breast.
Jade Rabbit was a lovely petite girl with a babyface. She looked very adorable when she smiled. Yet, she had plump breast, seeing which many girls would feel inferior to her. In one word, she was a typical girl with a babyface and plump breast. As long as she moved her body, her breast would jump. Seeing her, Hal, who had been in prison for three years, almost had a nosebleed.
Jade Rabbit glared at him in disgust, and turned the camera to Chu Xun.
Blood Wolf was stunned after seeing the scene. He took out a photo, looked at it, and then showed it to the translator beside him. After all, in his eyes, all the Orientals looked the same. Sure that the man on the screen was Chu Xun, he said with a grin, “Chu Xun, welcome.”
“Thank you!” Chu Xun said indifferently.
Blood Wolf looked very shocked. He stared at the screen and said, “Interesting. I’m waiting for you!”
After saying this, he made no secret of his thoughts. He raised his hand, made a gun-like hand gesture, and shot toward Chu Xun between the eyebrows on the screen. The next second, he laughed happily as if Chu Xun had been shot to death.
