Therefore, putting everything on the surface might be the only way. Because Hans was an experienced person, Jian Ai did not dare to take advantage of him. If anything she said did not flatter him, Jian Ai was worried that he would take Zhi Tong’s life.

When he heard Bai Zhou’s name, Hans immediately understood.

“How dare you come after me?” Hans gritted his teeth. “Did you kill Irene and Andrew and the rest?”

“No!” Yun Buyao quickly said, “They’re not dead, but we have them!”

Hearing that Irene and the rest were not dead, Hans’ expression immediately changed. “They are not dead? Why should I believe what you say?!”

If they were not dead, Irene and the rest would have a way to escape. Hans did not believe that anyone in the world could trap them for so long.

Because in his understanding, Irene was the strongest ability user he had ever seen!

“Our people are in your hands now, which means that we have control of each other’s hostages at the same time. If Leader Hans is willing, I think we can sit down and talk. After all, we have the people you want to save, right?” Yun Buyao said, “We initially had no ill intentions towards Leader Hans. We just wanted to get the information we wanted, that’s all!”

When Hans heard this, he couldn’t help but look up at Zhi Tong in his hand. He looked pale and weak, as if he was about to die.

“Then you have to be quick, because your companion looks like he doesn’t have much time!” Hans said coldly.

Unexpectedly, Zhi Tong exhaled and said in Italian, “I won’t die!”

Even if he was not injured, Zhi Tong would still give off the feeling that he was about to die. Although he was injured badly, Hans could not kill him with just a punch. It was midnight, and a large amount of Yin energy had poured into his body, quickly protecting Zhi Tong’s heart.

He was indeed very weak now, and facing the powerful Hans, he was not his match.

“We are at the foot of the mountain at the mercenary group’s headquarters. Please make things easier for us, Leader Hans!” Yun Buyao’s voice sounded again.

When Hans heard this, he did not think too much about it. What he cared about the most now was not the mission or the rich man behind it, but whether Irene and the rest were still alive!

He immediately let go of Zhi Tong in his hand. Zhi Tong swayed when he landed on the ground. He held onto the marble table behind him to stabilize himself.

Then, Hans walked to the door of the villa and opened it. The guard outside the door quickly went forward. “Leader!”

Hans explained in Italian and turned around to close the door. He went straight back to the sofa and sat down.

His gaze landed on Zhi Tong, and Hans said calmly, “If you dare to play tricks, all of you will die!”

When Zhi Tong heard this, he gently retracted the expression in his eyes and was indifferent to Hans’ threat.

Outside, Yun Buyao drove out of the forest and towards the mercenary group headquarters.

Jian Ai’s expression was solemn. The fact that Hans was an ability user was beyond her expectations. Moreover, it was obvious that Gale and the rest did not know about this. Otherwise, people below the level of Spiritual Art would not lie.

Therefore, the only possibility was that Hans hid it very well. Even Irene, Gale, and the rest did not know that Hans was also an ability user.

“Sect Master, don’t worry. Since Leader Hans will let us in, he has the desire to negotiate. It seems that Irene and the rest hold a lot of weight in his heart.” Seeing Jian Ai’s stony expression, Yu Wuyuan couldn’t help but comfort her. “Even if something happens, Sect Master, don’t worry. I will protect everyone!”

Jian Ai nodded gently. With Yu Wuyuan around, she naturally felt relieved. She only blamed herself for Zhi Tong’s injury.

When the car reached the intersection on the mountain, there were already guards waiting there. It was obvious that Hans’ instructions had been passed down.

There were almost no obstacles. Yun Buyao was familiar with the way up the mountain through the eyes of Zhi Tong, so she drove to the headquarters with ease.

After getting out of the car, a guard brought them to the villa on the mountainside.

As soon as the door of the villa opened, they saw Zhi Tong sitting on the ground by the marble table.

“Zhi Tong!”

Jian Ai was the first to rush forward. When she saw the pool of dark red blood on the carpet, Jian Ai’s pupils constricted. A hot current suddenly rushed out of her body and crazily attacked her limbs and bones.

Yu Wuyuan followed behind Jian Ai and immediately saw the abnormality in Jian Ai’s expression. He immediately reached out to hold Jian Ai’s shoulder. “Sect Master, calm down!”

He had heard from Bai Zhou and the rest that after the Sect Master saw Si Yue injured, she suddenly lost control and forcefully used the Blood Sacrifice.

From the looks of it, the Sect Master seemed to have an inexplicable situation in controlling her mind. Especially when her companions’ lives were threatened, she would suddenly go berserk and lose control, forcefully using the top mental cultivation techniques of the ancient sect.

This kind of thing made Yu Wuyuan feel it was a little unbelievable, but to Jian Ai, who had yet to become stronger, it was undoubtedly a huge taboo. This was because the top mental cultivation techniques of the ancient sect consumed a huge amount of spiritual energy. If she forcefully used them, she would suffer a backlash.

Jian Ai was stunned. Her dissipated rationality instantly returned under Yu Wuyuan’s voice. She widened her eyes for some reason. “I…”

She could clearly feel that her body seemed to have some reaction just now. She almost went berserk again?

“Sect Master, I’m fine. Don’t worry.” At this moment, Zhi Tong’s weak voice sounded. Then, he looked at Jian Ai and said apologetically, “I’ve disappointed everyone. I couldn’t… cough, cough…”

“Zhi Tong, stop talking!” Jian Ai quickly held Zhi Tong’s body with concern. Her eyes were red as she said, “You’ve already done very well. If it were anyone else, they wouldn’t be able to do what you did. It’s my fault. I shouldn’t have let you take the risk alone!”

As soon as she finished speaking, Yu Wuyuan went forward to help Zhi Tong up. Then, Jian Ai and the rest turned around and looked at Hans, who had been sitting on the sofa and staring at them.

From the moment they entered, Hans’ gaze had been on Jian Ai. This was naturally not because of Jian Ai’s powerful aura, but because Hans was surprised and even curious that a teenage girl like Jian Ai would appear!

“The person who spoke in my head just now was you?” Hans looked at Jian Ai and asked.

Hearing this, Jian Ai stabilized the fluctuating emotions in her heart and drawled, “The person you were talking to just now was not me, but the person you want to talk to next is me!”
