Chapter 16: Convergence of Every Party
"Congratulations on regaining freedom and happiness." Teng Qingshan said with a smile.
Lin Qing stared at Teng Qingshan. She came from a poor family. Having come this far through the first sum of money she had obtained, Lin Qing was also a person of good judgment. She could sense that Teng Qingshan had always been keeping other people at bay and had never treated her as a close friend.
"Teng Qingshan," Lin Qing hesitated, but still summoned her courage and asked, "I have a question. If I were to pursue you, would you accept me?"
It would take a lot of courage for a girl to ask this.
"No, I'm sorry." Teng Qingshan replied without any hesitation.
Lin Qing's countenance turned slightly pale as she spoke in self-mockery. "You find me dirty?"
"No."
Teng Qingshan shook his head and said, "Other than my wife, I can no longer fit any other lady into my heart."
Lin Qing tried her best to force a smile.
"Lin Qing, you should go now." Teng Qingshan abruptly said.
Lin Qing was stunned.
She noticed that Teng Qingshan was now focusing on a gloomy area in the distance. Could it be that there was someone there?
Feeling puzzled, Lin Qing looked over. She could faintly see the two figures who were slowly approaching.
Under the shine of the street lamp, Lin Qing could barely see the two person's appearances.
Those two have the appearances of the people from Southern Asia.
One of them was wearing a loosely-fitted white shirt and long white pants. His naturally curly hair was casually tied up into a long braid. He wore an amiable expression and had a pair of eyes that were like two black jade.
The other person was almost two meters tall and his bald head reflected hints of light from the street lamp. His eyes shot out an ominous and cold glare that was like that of a python, sending shivers down one's spine.
These two people were two out of the three Giants from the world's top organization 'God Kingdom', Vishnu and Shiva!
"Ahh!" Lin Qing was so shocked that her heart palpitated.
"You guys finally found me. It seems like the Hand of Darkness is not that efficient." Teng Qingshan spoke in Chinese.
"Since..we..found..you… You must die!" The Indian man with curly hair and wearing white clothes said with pauses between his words. Clearly, his grasp of the Chinese language was not that good.
"Die?" Lin Qing was frightened. She hastily looked towards Teng Qingsha and whispered, "Teng Qingshan, let's report this to the police."
Although her voice was very soft, the two God Kingdom's Giants who were thirty meters away could hear her clearly. A smiling expression showed on the face of the man in white clothes, Vishnu. As for Shiva, he did not understand Chinese at all.
Police?
Could the ordinary police forces interfere in a fierce battle between the three top-notch experts in the world?
"Lin Qing, go back first." Suddenly, Teng Qingshan moved.
"Haha, if you wish to kill me, then come."
With a sudden dash, Teng Qingshan sprinted into the darkness beside the Bright Moon Lake.
"Thinking of escaping?" That bald strong man, Shiva, let out a bellow. Fast as lightning, he chased after Teng Qingshan.
As for Vishnu, the man in white, he merely smiled and gave chase as if he was taking a leisure stroll.
However to think that each step would take him four to five meters away!
Lin Qing looked at this scene in a daze.
The speed of Teng Qingshan and the other two were so fast that Lin Qing was stunned.
"Oh no! They are going to kill Teng Qingshan!" Lin Qing said as she panicked.
Her concern made things worse. Although Teng Qingshan had told her not to report to the police, she subconsciously felt that calling the police during such times of danger was the right thing to do. Therefore, she chose to do what she felt was right.
Ever since Lin Qing and Teng Qingshan had met at the Willow Tea House and was discovered by Qin Hong, the Special Operation Team had specially sent someone to follow Lin Qing.
At this moment, a capable-looking lady with short hair and wearing a jacket was seen behind an artificial mountain near the Bright Moon Lake. She took out her cellphone and said, "Boss Yang, the two Indian men suddenly appeared. They should be the two Giants, Vishnu and Shiva. The Lone Wolf of the Flying Knives is now fleeing and the two Giants are now chasing after the Lone Wolf of the Flying Knives."
...
About twenty people gathered in an ordinary courtyard in the Old City District of Yangzhou City.
"The two Giants of the God Kingdom and the Lone Wolf of the Flying Knives have begun fighting at the Bright Moon Lake. The situation is very intense now. We are heading there right now." As soon as Yang Yun said this, he immediately made a call, "Chief Liu, it's me. Did someone just inform that two Indian men are about to murder someone at Bright Moon Lake? Alright, we'll handle this case. There's no need for you and your men to be involved."
If ordinary people were to be involved in this great fight, it would only affect them negatively.
"Little Jun and the rest who will be staying here, help me to take care of your sister-in-law. I'm just afraid that Shen Yangming will appear out of nowhere." Qin Hong wore his bulletproof vest and other equipment as he instructed his subordinates.
This time around, sixteen people would be dispatched. All sixteen of them were the most outstanding elites in the special operation team in the region of Jiangsu. In the team, Qin Hong was a group leader. He was the only one in his team to be chosen for this mission.
"Don't worry, Brother Qin." The remaining people in the headquarters immediately replied.
At this moment, Li Ran, with her big belly, came out of the room. Qin Hong hastily said, "Little Ran, rest well. We will return soon."
"Be careful." Li Ran was also a member of the team and knew how dangerous such operations were.
"Don't worry." Qin Hong assured.
"Set off!" Yang Yun commanded.
"Hurry up, Qin Hong." The others had already dashed out of the house. Qin Hong did not dare to have any delays. He immediately followed after the rest. The group split up to board four black Jettas and quickly headed for the Bright Moon Lake located in the Western City District.
Li Ran, who stood in the courtyard, couldn't help but show a hint of worry on her face.
"Elder Sister Ran, you need to be careful. Don't stand outside, get in quickly. Have you forgotten about that phone call from two days ago?" One of the members from headquarters immediately ran over.
"I know." Li Ran recalled the phone call from back then.
Then, she was just right next to the phone and had clearly heard the conversation. The other party had warned Qin Hong that Northeast's 'Shen Yangming' wanted to kill him and had enlisted the help of 'Li Mingshan'. Li Mingshan had then recruited a fugitive 'Chu Tian', who was staying in one of the rented houses in the Old City District.
Later on, they discovered Chu Tian's corpse. This morning, they discovered Li Mingshan's corpse in the hidden vast in his study room.
It was then that Qin Hong and the others were sure that Shen Yangming really wanted to kill him.
Moreover, it was true that Qin Hong had killed Shen Yangming's elder brother, 'Wang Qing'. Therefore, it was very logical for Shen Yangming to have the desire for revenge.
And so, Qin Hong moved his wife to the headquarters.
"Who was the one that made the call? Why was he trying to help us?" Both Li Ran and Qin Hong were puzzled as the caller did not leave a name.
Teng Qingshan was the one that called Qin Hong and Li Ran. As Shen Yangming wanted to kill his brother, he definitely wouldn't let Shen Yangming live.
Therefore, he asked Erina to help investigate and track down Shen Yangming so that he could take action.
However, tracking down a person required time.
Therefore, Teng Qingshan waited quietly in Yangzhou City for Erina's message.
However, the two Giants from the God Kingdom had already arrived even before he had gotten any news.
*******
Shen Yangming and his three subordinates were staying in a rented house in Old City District.
"Oh? Qin Hong has left his hideout and is heading towards the Western City District?" Shen Yangming was on the line with the 'Hand of Darkness' organization. "Alright, I'll set off immediately. Keep in contact."
When Shen Yangming arrived during the evening, he found out through the Hand of Darkness that Qin Hong was hiding in the headquarters of the special operation team. He was left with no choice but to wait. Yet, Qin Hong actually came out quicker than he had expected.
"Alright, brothers, we only have one goal. Kill Qin Hong!"
Shen Yangming was like a vicious wolf as he cast a glance toward the three people next to him.
"Don't worry, Elder Brother." The three of them who had chosen to come with Shen Yangming were fugitives as well.
"Take your guns."
Shen Yangming and the other three kept their guns concealed and immediately left the rented house. A Passat vehicle was parked outside the house.
After the four of them got onto the car, they immediately headed for the direction of the Western City District.
After a short while of driving…
"Shen Yangming, Qin Hong and his group have arrived at the Bright Moon Lake located in the Western City District. Currently, the Lone Wolf of the Flying Knives and the two Giants from the God Kingdom are there. That place is now very dangerous. I advise you to stay away from that place." The member of the Hand of Darkness organization voice rang out from the other end of the phone.
"What?!"
Shen Yangming was dealt a great shock.
Lone Wolf of the Flying Knives? Two Giants from the God Kingdom?
These three were all existences that he must admire.
"Thanks, but I rarely get a chance like this. Even if I were to die, I must avenge my brother!" Shen Yangming immediately commanded the subordinate who sat on the driver's seat, "Quick! Head to the Bright Moon Lake located in the Western City District. With the car's navigation map showing the direction towards the Bright Moon Lake, Shen Yangming and his mates sped and continuously overtook vehicles as they rushed towards the destination.
...
The Bright Moon Lake became the convergence site of all parties.
Teng Qingshan ran all the way to a barren land about eight hundred meters away from Bright Moon Lake. The two great experts also chased him all the way there.
"Lone Wolf of the Flying Knives, do you only know how to run?" The infuriated 'Shiva' spoke fluently in English.
"It's almost impossible to win when I have to deal with the two of them at the same time. I can only have a chance to win if I manage to get them to drop their guard." As Teng Qingshan was running away, he had quickly devised a plan in his heart. Suddenly, Teng Qingshan, who was running at rapid speed, turned around and shot out a flying knife with a swing of his hand.
Amidst the darkness, a hint of sparkle shot out toward Shiva's throat.
It was so fast that Shiva was unable to fend it off with his hand.
The bald and burly-looking man, Shiva, with his height of two meters, suddenly twisted weirdly. His neck seemed to stretch out toward the left and he easily dodged this flying dagger.
As a 'Mahasiddha[1]' who had attained the siddhi of perfection in Ancient Yoga, Shiva's head could easily turn three hundred and sixty degrees. The cultivation of his tendons, bones, and muscles had all reached an unbelievable stage.
"Swoosh!"
A sharp whistling sound rang out.
Teng Qingshan had already gotten close and attacked him with a punch that was as quick as lightning. The bald and strong man, Shiva, grinned and punched with the force of a cannonball.
"Bang!"
Teng Qingshan was shaken and he retreated several steps back concurrently.
"Elder Brother, this guy is quite strong. Haha... You can just watch from the side." Shiva seemed to be very excited. In the legends of Hinduism, it was said that the in the Trimurti [2], 'Shiva' was the god of destruction. The fact that this bald strong man could gain the nickname 'Shiva' also revealed some information about him...
It indicated that Shiva was extremely bellicose!
Vishnu, the man dress in white clothes, stood at the side as he silently watched the fight. Still, it was possible that he might attack at any moment.
