"Is this fake?"

Next to her, Zi Ye turned her head and asked with a frown.

Liu Yanyan hesitated for a moment but still nodded, "I told you not to come."

"But you didn't tell me it was fake."

Staring at her for a moment, Zi Ye said indifferently, then turned her gaze back and closed her eyes to rest.

In front, Ye Xuan, who was driving, couldn't help but feel speechless when he heard their conversation.

These two girls are really amusing, one fooling people with a counterfeit item, the other believing it wholeheartedly! Looking at their serious expressions, if you didn't know better, you'd think they were cross-talking rather than rescuing someone.

Shaking his head and dismissing his thoughts, Ye Xuan focused on driving.

After driving for about an hour, the vehicle arrived at the area around the West Suburb mountains and gradually approached the mountain range Felix mentioned.

Driving along the winding mountain road, they headed into the mountains.

Now, they were very close to the meeting point. As long as they traveled a bit further, they should reach the agreed location.

"Hey, are these guys like anteaters or something? They really know how to pick a hiding place."

Driving and determining the direction, Ye Xuan muttered to himself.

The geographical environment here is very special. Being deep in the mountains, it's tough to drive a car in.

Even if you drive in, you can only maintain a small range of speed and can't drive fast. So, launching a surprise attack is impossible, which maximizes the prevention of being surrounded or ambushed!

Furthermore, this place, surrounded by mountains and dense with trees, is a natural outdoor battlefield, perfect for escaping and hiding.

This mountainous jungle, for mercenaries who are used to roaming the wild, is an excellent main battlefield. No one is better suited to fight here than they are! No wonder the kidnappers chose this spot, clearly taking advantage of the favorable environment.

However, this only holds true for ordinary people. This place might be an ideal battlefield for the kidnappers, but for Ye Xuan, it might as well be the same!

This 'advantage,' when placed on him, not only fails to be an obstacle but can even become a tremendous support!

Because he is the most formidable Mercenary King, fighting in such a jungle is as easy as eating and drinking! Moreover, he possesses the ability to see through anything, gaining unlimited insight into the situation, with no chance for anyone to escape.

The kidnappers thought they had the terrain advantage, unaware that it's precisely Ye Xuan's expertise! They've turned their advantage into a disadvantage. If the confrontation were in the city, they might have had a chance to escape by car.

By choosing a place like this, they're essentially challenging Ye Xuan, the forbidden king of the International Mercenaries, to a jungle battle. They're just begging for an early death!

They don't even have a chance to flee.

Next, after driving for another ten minutes, they arrived outside a narrow valley.

Ye Xuan stuck his head out the car window, activated his penetrating vision, and observed inside the valley, discovering human activity marks!

Because there were a few tents set up in the valley, if he's correct, this should be the kidnappers' temporary hideout, which is also the meeting point for the exchange.

"Looks like we found the place."

Ye Xuan stopped the car, turned off the ignition, and told the two women behind him.

"What should we do next?"

Liu Yanyan looked at the valley in front, then turned her gaze back and asked.

"No rush to take action. You two stay in the car for a while. I'll go outside and observe, then make a decision."

After instructing them, Ye Xuan decisively opened the door and got out of the car.

He made a round around the spot, taking in the entire surrounding environment, observing, and analyzing the terrain to come up with various plans.

Through his observations, he found a total of six people hidden around the valley, with three concealed inside and the other three on high ground in the surrounding peaks, each aiming a sniper rifle in their direction, acting as snipers.

Additionally, he didn't see Murong Wanwan's presence, indicating that the kidnappers had indeed moved her elsewhere in advance, as they claimed, and she wasn't here.

Upon realizing this, Ye Xuan pondered slightly, turned back to the car, and stretched out his hand to Liu Yanyan: "Give me the item. Zi Ye and I will meet the kidnappers. You stay in the car and don't move."

Hearing this, Liu Yanyan immediately furrowed her brows: "Why should I stay in the car?"

"Because it's very dangerous out here!"

Ye Xuan spread his hands and said, "There are three snipers on the mountain. If a fight breaks out when we go out, you could become a live target for them, making it easy for casualties to occur and dragging us into saving you! So, staying in the car is your best choice."

After listening to Ye Xuan's words, Liu Yanyan inadvertently glanced at the surrounding mountains, furrowing her brows: "How did you know there are snipers on the mountain?"

"Don't worry about that. Just listen to me, stay obediently in the car, and don't come out." Ye Xuan said.

Staring at Ye Xuan for a couple of seconds, Liu Yanyan hesitated a bit but eventually nodded in agreement: "Alright! But you two please be careful, prioritize safety, and try to avoid confrontation if possible."

As she spoke, she handed the wooden box in her hand to Ye Xuan.

"That depends on whether the kidnappers cooperate obediently!"

Ye Xuan grinned, took the wooden box from Liu Yanyan's hand, and said, "Heh, don't overthink it, just wait for our good news."

After saying that, he called for Zi Ye and stepped out of the car with her.

After closing the car door, Ye Xuan, holding the wooden box, walked side by side with Zi Ye into the valley.

"There are six people inside here, three in the valley, and..." Ye Xuan explained the situation to Zi Ye as they walked.

"How do you know so much about the kidnappers?"

Zi Ye looked at Ye Xuan strangely and couldn't help but ask.

Before, she was skeptical about how this guy knew there were snipers. After all, the mountain surroundings are dense with bushes, and the valley is covered with miasma; it's impossible to see with the naked eye.

"Hehe, because I have special abilities. You can't see, but I can!" Ye Xuan smiled mysteriously.

"Special abilities? You're bragging. I don't believe you."

Zi Ye pursed her lips, completely disbelieving Ye Xuan's words, and said, "I think you're just guessing!"

"If you don't believe me, you can test it out!"

"I don't have the mood for that." Zi Ye replied, slightly annoyed, "Right now, we need to focus on the task at hand, no time for banter!"

Ye Xuan shrugged, not saying any more, and looked ahead, speaking loudly in English: "Felix, stop hiding! Come out now; we've brought what you wanted."
