Lu Tie nodded hurriedly and said, "I believe you."
“I’ve been working undercover at this company for years, but I haven’t been able to find enough evidence. I urgently need an assistant. If you’re willing to help me find the ICE manufacturing plant behind this company, not only will this money be yours, but I will also apply to my superiors for a huge reward for you. What you get then will be far more than this amount.”
"Really?" Lu Tie asked with great joy.
"I'm a police officer, why would I need to lie to you?"
Lu Tie nodded and said, "That makes sense, but why do I feel like you're trying to fool me? Manager Yu, you say you're an undercover police officer, but as far as I know, you're not a police officer at all, much less an undercover police officer."
Yu Zhihong shook his head and smiled, then asked, "So what do you think I am?"
Lu Tie pretended to be deep in thought and said with a solemn expression, "According to the reliable information I have, the reason you have been acting so strangely in the past two or three months is because you have received a large sum of money from foreigners. In fact, your real identity is a spy, Manager Yu. Am I right?"
"kindness?"
Yu Zhihong frowned and said coldly, "So, you know everything?"
Lu Tie nodded without hesitation and said, "I know."
A murderous glint flashed in Yu Zhihong's eyes, and he said coldly, "You're investigating me?"
Lu Tie smiled slightly and said, "Actually, it's not really an investigation. Director Yu, there's a saying: 'If you don't want others to know, don't do it in the first place.' In my opinion, you are a complete disgrace to the country."
"You're asking for death!" Yu Zhihong roared, tossing the box aside as he coldly said, "Lu Tie, since you don't understand the meaning of 'a wise man submits to circumstances,' then die!"
As he spoke, Yu Zhihong quickly pulled out a pistol and fired a shot at Lü Tie.
In the past, Lü Tie would have been doomed, but he was no longer the same person. The moment Yu Zhihong drew his pistol, Lü Tie twisted his body, made a cunning sidestep, rushed to Yu Zhihong's side, grabbed Yu Zhihong's neck, and twisted it without any mercy. Just as the gunshot rang out, his neck made a "crack" sound, and then he was seen lying slumped on the ground like a dead fish.
"Clap! Clap! Clap!"
Just then, three claps rang out not far to the left of where Lü Tie was standing. Immediately afterwards, Qiao Ben walked out from behind a car with his arms crossed in front of his chest and a long sword between his fingers.
Lu Tie slowly turned around and smiled slightly, "You have quite the patience! It took you so long to come out."
Qiao Ben sized up Lü Tie and nodded, saying, "Not bad, not bad, you've got some skills."
Lu Tie laughed and said, "A little trick, nothing special."
Qiao Ben stood sideways in front of Lü Tie, the two of them only about two meters apart. He didn't even glance at Yu Zhihong, who was lying dead on the ground, and said coldly, "Mr. Lü, if I were you, I wouldn't kill him, but would cooperate with him."
Lu Tie retorted without backing down, "But the truth is, I've already killed him."
Joben nodded and said, "You know too much now, so you must die."
Lü Tie laughed and said, "But I don't think so."
"tell me the story."
Lu Tie smiled again and said, "I think he deserves to die, you deserve to die, and all those people behind you deserve to die."
Qiao Ben shook his head and smiled, saying, "Young man, do you know what the consequences will be for saying such things?"
Lu Tie showed no fear and laughed, "I know, it's just death! As the saying goes, everyone dies eventually, but one should die a worthy death. You've traveled thousands of miles to my HX land to cause trouble and even tried to steal my HX military secrets. You deserve to die."
Upon hearing this, Qiao Ben narrowed his eyes and sneered, slowly saying, "It seems you are destined to die today."
As he spoke, he flicked his left middle finger, and the longsword rang out with a dragon's roar. Before the roar had even faded, the sword was already in his hand.
The silver sword in his hand was narrow, thinner than a chopstick, yet over five feet long. Silver light flowed from tip to tip, as if it would fly away at any moment!
Lu Tie stared intently at the silver sword in Qiao Ben's hand, his eyes flashing. Without hesitation, he unbuckled the silver leather belt from his waist, grabbed the end of the belt, and gave it a flick. With a "clang," the belt instantly transformed into a silver longsword, five feet long and three-tenths of an inch wide, also gleaming with silver light.
Even when the sword in Lü Tie's hand was still, it was already flowing with silver light, dazzling to the eye. Now, as the sword light was unleashed, it was as if a basin of mercury had been poured from the sky. He stood with the sword in hand, as imposing as a mountain. When Qiao Ben thrust his sword at him, he did not move at all. But then, the silver light spun, and the sword's momentum suddenly changed direction.
It turns out that Joe Ben's sword strike was just a feint.
In terms of cultivation, Lü Tie was at least a martial artist at the early stage of the Earth Realm. This was largely thanks to the miraculous medicine and ten-thousand-year-old ginseng that Chao Bufan gave him, which allowed his cultivation to advance by leaps and bounds. As for Qiao Ben, he was a bounty hunter and a cultivator. Moreover, his cultivation was more than one level higher than Lü Tie's, a genuine peak Earth Realm cultivator, which was naturally beyond Lü Tie's reach.
He could have easily defeated his enemy in one move, but Joben didn't. As a bounty hunter with extensive experience, he always went all out against any enemy, striving for zero errors. After all, sometimes, even an ant can kill an elephant. Therefore, he used a feint to lure his enemy, but he was genuinely surprised by the opponent's composure.
Lu Tie swung his sword, but unexpectedly, his opponent used a feint. Sensing danger, he didn't hesitate, twisting his body and turning around as his sword spun around. With a clang, the two silver swords clashed in mid-air, sparks flying. At the same time, the huge recoil sent Lu Tie staggering backward, several steps before crashing into the trunk of Yu Zhihong's car with a thud before coming to a stop. Qiao Ben, on the other hand, remained motionless after the exchange, standing there without making any attempt to launch an attack.
The impact left Lü Tie feeling as if his body had been torn apart, and he nearly suffered a stroke, unable to catch his breath.
This is the difference between strength and weakness; the strong are the strong.
With just one move, Lü Tie suffered a great loss. He couldn't care less about anything else and thought in shock, "This person is so powerful. His strength is far above mine. Damn it, I've overestimated myself."
Without regard for anything else, in the face of life and death, he let out a cold laugh and swung his sword to attack Qiao Ben. He unleashed six sword strikes in succession, each one a deadly move. However, Qiao Ben remained calm and composed, handling the situation with ease. He showed no intention of taking Lü Tie seriously, nor did he rush to kill Lü Tie. He simply raised his sword to deflect Lü Tie's thrusting sword.
