Lin Tian followed closely behind Wang Quan, keeping a few container lengths between them to prevent Wang Quan from suddenly looking back and exposing his presence.

Arriving at the red warehouse, Wang Quan handed over his backpack to a guard, and the two of them walked into the warehouse, while another guard at the entrance cautiously watched his surroundings.

Lin Tian decided to stay put, crouching behind a container while using his perspective to observe everything inside the warehouse.

He saw Wang Quan and the guard inside the warehouse fiddling with the backpack, taking out artifacts one by one.

Then the two began opening boxes, removing cosmetics, placing an artifact inside, covering it with a plastic sheet, and then stuffing the box full of cosmetics again.

They repeatedly engaged in this activity.

"Should I call the police?" Lin Tian murmured to himself; if he called them now, it could lead to the capture of both the people and the stolen goods.

Both Wang Quan and the artifacts would be caught and seized.

Thinking it over, Lin Tian decided against it.

Who knows if something might go wrong with the police?

If Chen Moxiang were in Waihai City, perhaps she could offer assistance.

But telling her currently seemed impossible.

The only way forward was to rely on himself.

Just as Lin Tian was about to sneak into the warehouse to capture Wang Quan, suddenly two dark figures slowly approached.

Their footsteps were heavy, exuding a strong murderous aura across their bodies.

This was the scent Lin Tian sensed from them, indicating these two were not simple individuals.

Involuntarily, Lin Tian's gaze grew increasingly solemn, his heart becoming puzzled: "Who are these two?"

The two shadows were originally heading towards the red warehouse.

Suddenly, one of them halted his steps, and a deep voice sounded: "Meichuan, do you feel like we're being watched?"

Meichuan Kuzi scanned the surroundings, shook his head: "These are just containers; there's no one here!"

"Strange, I always feel we're being watched!" a puzzled voice emerged.

"Let's go, take care of business first. When we act, we must be quick. Don't leave any witnesses!" Meichuan Kuzi's icy voice echoed.

The two shadows headed towards the red warehouse, while Lin Tian, behind a nearby container, broke out in cold sweat.

"Who are these two? What kind of dignitaries?" For the first time, Lin Tian felt exceedingly tense.

Gone were the days when he became strong and nonchalantly wasted away, either showing off or idly loitering every day.

Because he considered himself strong enough, with no need to train more.

Even a dozen thugs couldn't compete with him—why fear anything?

Becoming invincible, train more? Laughable!

Anyway, Lin Tian felt no need!

However, just now from those two shadows, Lin Tian sensed a powerful aura for the first time.

And from the depths of his heart arose a sense of fear.

"Perhaps, I'm no match for these two!" Lin Tian even felt a sense of defeat.

At the very least, he couldn't sense the concealed situation, while the shadow could sense his existence.

This was something Lin Tian couldn't achieve.

Lin Tian wiped away the beads of cold sweat from his forehead, his pupils tightened, secretly exclaiming: "Just now, they said 'don't leave any witnesses,' what does that mean? Are they planning to kill Wang Quan?"

Thinking this over, disregarding fear, Lin Tian stealthily moved towards the red warehouse.

He saw the guard at the warehouse entrance ask the two shadows a few questions before signaling them to enter.

Wang Quan and another guard were still handling the artifacts, but they stopped their actions upon seeing someone enter.

"Who are you?" Wang Quan asked with a puzzled look, a sense of vigilance arising.

"Meichuan Kuzi!" As Meichuan Kuzi introduced himself, he asked, "Is this Mr. Wang Quan?

"Yes, yes, yes!" Upon hearing it was Meichuan Kuzi, Wang Quan laughed repeatedly: "Mr. Meichuan, I'm just placing the artifacts into these boxes, almost finished!"

"Alright, Mr. Wang Quan, carry on while I wait!" As the artifacts were pivotal to Mr. Zhuge, Meichuan Kuzi didn't rush to act but let Wang Quan finish first.

After all, the artifacts were the crucial items that Mr. Zhuge valued.

Wang Quan and the guard placed the last artifact adequately, feeling as though their backs were about to break.

"Smoke?" Wang Quan offered a cigarette to Meichuan Kuzi.

"No!" Meichuan Kuzi shook his head.

Seeing this, Wang Quan handed a cigarette to the guard.

Taking a deep breath, Wang Quan asked Meichuan Kuzi: "Did you tell Mr. Zhuge about my situation?"

"Yes!" Meichuan Kuzi replied without a pause.

"What did Mr. Zhuge say?" Wang Quan asked while taking a fierce drag on the cigarette.

Mr. Zhuge's attitude towards him would determine his life in Sakula Country.

"Mr. Zhuge said, there's no need for you to go to Sakula Country!" Meichuan Kuzi's icy voice echoed within the warehouse.

Initially, Wang Quan didn't comprehend the deep meaning of these words, but once he realized, the cigarette dropped from his hand, and silence fell upon the air.

"Is Mr. Zhuge implying for you to kill me?" At this moment, Wang Quan suddenly felt much older.

He thought doing so much would earn Mr. Zhuge's protection.

Little did he know, from the beginning, he was merely Mr. Zhuge's tool.

Now that the tool was useless, keeping it was unnecessary.

"Correct!" Meichuan Kuzi nodded affirmatively.

Receiving the accurate answer, Wang Quan laughed, though the smile was indescribably bleak.

"Sorry, Mr. Wang!" With a cold snort, Meichuan Kuzi swiftly thrust at Wang Quan with a flash of cold light in his hand.

"Thunk!"

The sound of metal piercing through a human body tightened the hearts of those present. Wang Quan staggered two steps back, seeing a shadow stand in front of him.

"Quan, why are you standing there? Hurry and run!" It turned out the guard at the crucial moment blocked the blade for Wang Quan, yet blood continuously seeped from his mouth, indicating his impending death.

"Run, run!" Despite imminent death, the guard, with his hands, clung tightly to Meichuan Kuzi, trying to restrain him.

Then Wang Quan panicked, especially since the guard's body got pierced, with blood splattering onto his face.

The scent of blood made Wang Quan turn and run like a madman towards the warehouse entrance. That guard was Wang Quan's confidant, and at this moment, he sensed he truly wasted his years.

"Turns out, someone willing to block the blade for me was but a warehouse guard, haha!" Wang Quan mocked himself with a laugh, feeling he'd wasted his early life.

"Indeed, some people aren't afraid of death!" Looking at the guard in front of him, Meichuan Kuzi's long knife made a spin.

On the guard's face, a haunted expression appeared, and there was a bloody hole on his chest.

Outside the warehouse, Lin Tian observed the scene inside, stunned.

Aren't they a group?

Why did they suddenly start fighting?

And when they struck, why was it so ruthless?
