Chapter 3914 Rescuing the Person

In China, no matter who the other party is, if they fall into my hands, they're in big trouble. That's because my identity is different. I'm not just a simple martial arts practitioner; I also have an official identity. I'm the section chief of the Yanbei Special Investigation Team. I don't care if you're black or white; you're no match for me.

If you do something wrong, then I've got something on you. I'm not afraid of whatever they do to me, because Old Tang will clean up my messes.

Upon hearing that the other party was extremely wealthy, no one showed any fear in their eyes; instead, their eyes gleamed with the prospect of striking it rich.

Even Li Shenwei, a girl who was working with us for the first time, exclaimed how exciting it was. She had encountered a big fish on her very first day working with us.

After calming our excited emotions, the slovenly Taoist priest glanced at the compass in his hand and said, "Let's go in and rescue him first. Once we get Ma Yuanwang out, the other party won't be a threat to us anymore. Then we can proceed with confidence."

"Brothers, don't underestimate them. This guy surnamed Li is incredibly wealthy and must have hired many experts to guard his house, especially that skilled feng shui master. He's terrifyingly strong. I broke through one of his feng shui formations before, so he's definitely a master among masters. There's probably another formation in this house too. Be careful when you go in," I reminded everyone.

"Old Wu, what's there to be afraid of? You're a high-ranking officer in the Special Investigation Team. If they want to deal with you, they'll have to see if they have the guts." The slovenly Taoist priest chuckled.

"The Special Investigations Unit's credentials aren't always a get-out-of-jail-free card; it's best to be careful." I had a vague sense of unease, feeling that this time things definitely wouldn't be so easy.

After a quick discussion, we all took out our invisibility talismans and used them. Kassan then vanished into the void, and we slowly approached the manor villa halfway up the mountain.

As we approached that mansion, we felt a sense of pressure.

This place is really heavily guarded, with high walls, electric fences, and cameras everywhere. There are several guards just at the gate.

A few of us walked around the courtyard wall and found the place with the least guarded defenses. We then planned to climb over the wall to rescue Ma Yuanwang.

Kassan was the first to vanish into the void and enter the courtyard.

We were in a bit of trouble, as we had to climb over the wall. I was the first to move, using the gecko wall-climbing technique. Just as I was about to get close to the electric fence, I suddenly pushed off with my feet, did a somersault, and landed easily in the yard.

Kassan was waiting for me in the yard. As soon as I landed, Kassan grabbed my arm and pulled me aside.

Before long, the slovenly Taoist priest and the little demoness also climbed over the courtyard wall.

After the four of us huddled together, the slovenly Taoist priest glanced at the compass again and said to us, “We are now at the southernmost end of the courtyard. Ma Yuanwang should be imprisoned at the northernmost end, which is backed by a mountain. We need to cross the entire courtyard to the north to rescue Ma Yuanwang and then return. It’s a bit troublesome. Should we send Ma Yuanwang away before fighting them, or should we leave Ma Yuanwang behind? If we keep him with us, we’ll be somewhat constrained.”

"Let's save them first. After we get them out, we can think about what to do next," I said seriously.

No one objected, so Kassan went ahead to explore and scout the way for us, while we used the invisibility talisman to head towards the far north.

As I walked along, I was dazzled by what I saw; the Li family is truly incredibly wealthy.

I already thought Mr. Zhou's family was incredibly wealthy, but compared to this place, they were still far behind. On the way to the far north, I actually saw a huge swimming pool, which was like a small lake.

I've heard that there are still people on Hong Kong Island who live in tiny cubicles of less than two square meters, where they can't even stretch their legs out when they sleep.

The swimming pool at the Li family's house is big enough to raise sharks.

The saying "Behind the red gates, meat and wine go to waste, while on the road, frozen corpses lie" is absolutely true.

The swimming pool is one thing, but the floor tiles are something I've never seen before, and they even glow at night. The key thing is the layout of the courtyard. Everything is meticulously arranged, with a backrest, a canopy, and flowing water meandering through the courtyard.

No wonder it is said that people on Hong Kong Island have great faith in feng shui; this is perfectly demonstrated in the Li family.

I reckon the person who arranged the feng shui for the Zhou family must have been the most skilled feng shui master the Li family hired.

After walking a little further, I felt something was off, because I seemed to sense the aura of a magic array.

There must be a magic array in the Li family's residence, but it wasn't activated.

Once this magic array is activated, it becomes like a net that cannot be escaped, making it extremely difficult for ordinary people to break free.

After all, the Li family has a huge reputation in Hong Kong, and there are bound to be many people eyeing their money. Some might be bold enough to risk their lives to run into the Li family and try to make a fortune, but once trapped by this magic array, it will be too difficult to escape.

However, I'm not worried about that. The slovenly Taoist has the Eastern Emperor Bell, so even if we can't get out for a while, this magic array won't kill us.

As we walked, we observed the surrounding scenery, and after about twenty minutes, we arrived at the northernmost point.

Along the way, we also saw several cultivators casually walking back and forth in the courtyard, and they all seemed to have quite good cultivation levels.

After we reached the northernmost point, the slovenly Taoist priest led us to hide behind a large tree and said, "Brothers, in one of the houses in the cluster of bungalows near the mountain at the northernmost point, Ma Yuanwang is being held captive. Shall we go rescue him now?"

"Don't wait any longer, things could go wrong. Let's get them out now." I called out and was the first to walk towards the few bungalows at the northernmost edge of the mountain.

These houses were probably used for storing miscellaneous items and were inconspicuous in the entire courtyard.

I glanced around and noticed that one of the rooms had its lights on, so I quietly moved closer.

When I went closer and looked inside through the window, I immediately saw a familiar figure – it was Ma Yuanwang.

There was only a small lamp in the room. Ma Yuanwang was tied to a chair, with two men in black standing next to him.

Ma Yuanwang was tied up tightly, his eyes were covered with a black cloth, and he couldn't move. But he kept cursing and saying, "Let me go right now. I don't care who you are. You dare to touch me, Ma Yuanwang. Don't you know who I am in Hong Kong? If I get out, I'll kill your whole family."

One of the men in black stepped forward and slapped Ma Yuanwang across the face, saying in a gloomy tone, "Behave yourself, or I'll gag you."
