Mu Yuan had double images in front of his eyes. Through the window screen, he heard a familiar voice.

Shan Ning?

Mu Yuan had not been very conscious throughout the journey. He felt giddy. The weather was very humid and warm, and the car was extremely stuffy. This car was somewhat broken and damaged and was now parked in a small town now. It was installed with a window screen, and the outer layer was kindly lifted up to let him breathe some fresh air to prevent him from being suffocated to death. Mu Yuan looked and saw Shan Ning.

The double image in front of his eyes was too strong. He thought that he was hallucinating and could not help himself from knocking the car. When his vision became clear, he looked again, and it was indeed a hallucination. He did not see anyone.. Just when he was feeling too hopeless, Shan Ning’s figure appeared again. It seemed like he had walked up to an elderly man and was talking to him about something. He also gave the man some money.

Mu Yuan’s heart shrank. It was Shan Ning.

It was really Shan Ning.

Why did he come? Ye Ling said before that he would not send people to save him. If something happened, he had to depend on himself. Otherwise, it would cost the lives of a group of brothers. This place was so far away. No one could guarantee that anyone could return home safely. He had also agreed.

Did Shan Ning come here alone to save him?

Alone and without help?

Mu Yuan’s heart had pangs of tightness. He knew that Shan Ning treated him well. From when they were young until they grew up, there were like brothers who had gone through thick and thin. They were on very good terms. They could really be called childhood sweethearts. Although he was different from Ye Ling, Xie Jinghuan, and the others, he was also one of the people he had trusted the most. Shan Ning had always been very good to him all along, but he did not expect Shan Ning to come to this desert alone to save him.

His head was in pain.

It was so painful.

This fool!

When something happened to him, it was indeed his brother whom he could depend on the most.

Jack seemed to feel that someone was looking at him. When he turned around, he did not see anyone. He knew that Mu Yuan was in that car. He was absolutely sure. Lin Songye sent two people to guard him.

Xiaoyuan must be feeling dizzy and must have already lost consciousness.

Jack bought a packet of cigarettes and returned upstairs. He called the shadow. “I have brought five million. Do you dare to come and take it?”

“Why wouldn’t I dare to?” The shadow did not expect him to raise five million so quickly and was so happy. The amount of money that Morgan gave them was not five million. If they took the money during this trip, it was worth it for his brothers.

“I am less than 100 meters away from you. I’m in room 201 on the second floor of the hotel.” Jack hung up the phone. At the same time, he sent a text message to Ye Tingyun. Ye Tingyun simply replied with one word ‘alright’.

New York.

Ye Tingyun contacted the people from the technical department. “Reveal the information regarding the transaction between Jack and the shadow to the people from the Storm mercenaries. Do it seamlessly. Make it seem like it is leaked unintentionally. Don’t be too deliberate.”

“Got it.”

To them, leaking information was an easy matter. They did not have to be too deliberate. They could have a hundred ways of leaking information and did not need too much advice.

The small town in the desert.

Jack was drinking when someone knocked on the door. Jack walked over. The shadow was also a bold and cautious person. He brought two people along and met Shan Ning.

“Mr. Shan Ning, I have been looking forward to meeting you for a long time.”

“You are welcome.” Jack turned his body sideways and allowed a gap. The shadow came in. At one glance, he saw the five million in cash on the table. This five million cash was like a huge gold ingot. It enchanted him. The greed of the mercenary was in full view.

“I didn’t expect you to raise the money so quickly. The officials in your country are indeed very wealthy.” This was outside the borders, and he could raise the money within half a day. Moreover, it was a huge sum of money. This was rather frightening. He had originally thought that Shan Ning did not have this amount of money.
