However, the ninja's luck ends here.

Let's not mention others, but the little girl and Lu Yao were already filled with rage.

Su Yuzhuo sighed internally: In the end, he didn't heed the advice.

In some ways, the letter Su Yuzhuo left behind seemed more like an expectation, hoping that Iwakami Shigehiro would be as obedient to him as he was when they were young.

Unfortunately, the facts in front of him show that the current Iwakami Shigehiro is completely different from when he was young, reminding Su Yuzhuo that he must change his views.

"Whoosh! Whoosh!"

The nearly simultaneous sound of something cutting through the air interrupted Su Yuzhuo's thoughts.

Looking up, two long whips had already wrapped around the waist of the ninja in mid-air, with the other ends controlled by the little girl and Lin Zhiyan.

"Retreat!"

Lin Zhiyan said decisively, signaling everyone to move inward to avoid being hit by the falling ninja.

The ninja obviously realized his fate as well and immediately pulled out three darts from his waist, throwing them at the little girl and Lin Zhiyan below.

He was gambling, betting that after Lin Zhiyan and the little girl let go, he could seize this brief opportunity to climb out of the hole while taking their weapons.

However, before the little girl and Lin Zhiyan let go, Lu Yao quickly acted, and the climbing stick swiftly captured the trajectory of the flying darts.

"Clang! Clang! Clang!"

The three darts fell to the ground, one-third of each dart penetrating the surface.

"Pop! Pop! Pop!"

Three segments of the broken climbing stick followed and fell to the ground.

Lin Zhiyan and the little girl simultaneously exerted force, pulling the ninja down.

"Bang!"

Upon landing, the ninja let out a miserable scream, while Lin Jiaxuan decisively stepped forward to deliver a fatal blow, blood spraying out like a fountain.

On the ground, Xiao Feng heard the ninja's scream and glanced around, seeing only wild grass as far as the eye could see.

From the terrain, it was an ideal hiding place, suitable for an ambush in the dark.

Suddenly, as if realizing something, Xiao Feng unscrewed the cap of the essential oil hanging around his neck and took a deep breath.

The enhanced essential oil was very pungent, akin to mustard oil, and if described simply in two words, it would be: invigorating!

Stimulated by the cool sensation, Xiao Feng couldn't help but shiver, then exhaled a long breath: "Whew..."

Then, standing still, his eyes gradually began to look vacant.

Having already experienced being unknowingly trapped by an "Illusion Technique," he was highly suspicious that Uesugi Yumi would be hiding in the dark to use the same trick again.

Therefore, playing along without a doubt was a great option.

Of course, this was also betting on a probability; if Uesugi Yumi hadn't had time to act, and Xiao Feng already appeared entrapped, it would really be like the old saying: purely fooling oneself.

Maintaining such a still posture, after about half a minute, a rustling sound came from the grass.

A group of ninjas dressed in the same color as the wild grass came out from different directions, slowly surrounding Xiao Feng.

"Lord Uesugi truly is wise, not only predicting that this bastard would be the last to come down but also having him trapped immediately. I am impressed!" Iwakami Shigehiro said excitedly, with a flushed face.

"Now is not the time to say these things. Divide a part of the people to watch, and don't let the people below come up to support."

Saying this, Uesugi Yumi pointed at one of the ninjas and ordered: "You, go and kill him!"

Iwakami Shigehiro was instantly filled with regret. Although he was eager to personally kill Xiao Feng to vent his hatred, Uesugi Yumi had directly selected someone, leaving him to stand aside.

However, witnessing his enemy being killed with his own eyes was a painful thing to experience!

But little did he know, Xiao Feng was also regretful at this moment.

Why didn't Iwakami Shigehiro come personally?

It was in that moment of distraction that his eyes immediately changed, and almost at the same time, Uesugi Yumi's expression shifted: "Something's wrong!"

Before her words were finished, the ninja who had reached in front of Xiao Feng was directly grasped by the throat.

"Crack!"

The cartilage was crushed; he didn't even have a chance to scream, his eyes bulging like bells, before he fell down stiffly.

Perhaps even in death, the ninja couldn't comprehend whether to blame Uesugi Yumi or Xiao Feng for his demise.

Or maybe, both?

However, with his life fading, those thoughts no longer mattered.

Uesugi Yumi's face was filled with shock, she pointed at the essential oil around Xiao Feng's neck and asked: "What is that?"

Xiao Feng grinned: "You mean this? It's something used in the summer to ward off mosquitoes. Costs three bucks a bottle, you can buy it at any clinic."

Uesugi Yumi's face darkened; she was half-skeptical of Xiao Feng's words, but that wasn't the point. The point was her Illusion Technique could be declared null and void now.

As for direct combat, having previously faced Xiao Feng, Uesugi Yumi didn't think it wise to engage.

"Though I don't know what's below, I can block the entrance and trap you inside. Now, if you surrender, perhaps your friends might still live." Uesugi Yumi said coldly.

The words clearly stated she had no intention of engaging Xiao Feng directly.

"Heh." Xiao Feng chuckled insincerely: "You'd better worry about yourself. I've already sent my location out. Reinforcements will arrive soon. As for blocking the entrance, do as you please."

After speaking, he sent his location to Gong Kaishan, asking him to notify Xue Nuofu to send people over.

For a moment, the two sides fell into a stalemate once more.

Xiao Feng, before Uesugi Yumi and the others left, definitely wouldn't risk being cut off by the rope if he descended forcefully into the underground hole.

And Uesugi Yumi's situation was even more awkward; she couldn't take Xiao Feng in direct combat, but the longer this dragged on, the more disadvantaged she'd be when reinforcements arrived.

However, just then, an eerie laugh sounded: "Yanhuang, you always seem so self-assured."

Not long after, two foreigners with blond hair and blue eyes emerged from the grass.

In the hole, Su Yuzhuo frowned: "Lu Yao, do you feel that voice sounds familiar?"

Lu Yao nodded, indicating she had the same feeling.

On the ground, everyone's attention was drawn to the suddenly appearing duo.

Because they looked exactly the same, even their height was no different, like they were carved from the same mold.

Indeed, twin brothers.

At this moment, one of them spoke: "Thomson, that waste, always imagined himself as some top biochemistry expert. But the truth? His so-called experiment was a joke, so his failure didn't surprise me at all."

The other shrugged indifferently, speaking in the same voice: "Speaking of which, I really should thank you. Thomson was really annoying, and you dealt with him, which in a way, was doing a good deed for us brothers."

Iwakami Shigehiro couldn't help but ask: "Are you people from the Devil's Concentration Camp?"

However, the twin brothers who looked and spoke identically didn't spare him a glance, as if in their eyes, there was only Xiao Feng.

The rest, even Uesugi Yumi, didn't meet their criteria for attention.
