#258 - Chapter 258 Captured

Xu Le looked around, searching for objects or environmental advantages he could exploit.

His gaze fell upon the newly opened letter on the table, and an idea sparked in Xu Le's mind. He pretended to continue retreating, but in reality, he was quietly circling towards the table, while loudly shouting, "Wu Feng, let's join forces and hand this letter over to the authorities as evidence! It will surely expose the Red Lotus Sect's conspiracy!"

Upon hearing this, a trace of panic flashed in the black shadow's eyes, clearly indicating the importance of the letter to him. His attacks slowed as he tried to stop Xu Le from approaching the letter. However, Wu Feng seized the opportunity to counterattack, forcing the black shadow to divide his attention to defend.

Xu Le took the chance to grab the letter and quickly retreated to the window, shouting loudly, "If you dare come any closer, I will burn this letter, ensuring your conspiracy never succeeds!"

The black shadow paused, evidently intimidated by Xu Le's actions. He knew the importance of the letter; if it fell into the hands of the authorities, it would bring immense trouble to the Red Lotus Sect.

"You… you dare!" the black shadow roared, but he didn't dare to act rashly.

Xu Le sneered and held the letter high, pretending to burn it. "What wouldn't I dare to do? For justice, I am willing to walk through fire and water!"

The man in black suddenly stopped, mockingly laughing, "You're trying to fool ghosts with a letter from the Jinxi Tower?"

Seeing this, Wu Feng's expression changed drastically. He knew that today's matter probably couldn't be resolved peacefully. He was preparing to unleash his potential for a desperate fight.

But then, another man in black suddenly barged in from outside the door. He said, "Alright, Rat, stop playing around. One for each of us, take them down quickly!"

Xu Le was shocked, wondering how there could be another person. What was going on!

He didn't have time to think and hurriedly turned to look at the newcomer. He saw a cold look in his eyes, revealing a chilling aura.

He held a sharp blade in his hand, shimmering with a cold light, making one's heart palpitate. He walked towards Xu Le step by step, each step carrying a ruthless and calm aura.

He looked at Xu Le as if he were a harmless little white rabbit.

At the same time, Wu Feng was confronting the previous man in black, the atmosphere between them extremely tense. Both were focused, ready to meet the other's attack at any moment.

Any conspiracy or trick is a joke in the face of absolute strength.

Soon, despite Wu Feng and Xu Le's best efforts to struggle and resist, their efforts were still in vain.

The two men in black displayed great strength and skill, easily capturing Wu Feng and Xu Le. Their movements were quick and decisive, as if everything was under control.

Wu Feng and Xu Le's resistance seemed so weak, they could not compete with the power of these two men in black. In the end, they could only helplessly be subdued and taken away.

Faced with this sudden change, Xu Le and Wu Feng felt unprecedented despair. They struggled desperately, but unfortunately, the strength of the men in black was too great, and their resistance seemed so weak.

"Who exactly are you people?" Xu Le roared, his eyes wide with anger. But the man in black only sneered, obviously not intending to answer his question.

As the men in black pressed closer, Xu Le and Wu Feng were firmly controlled. Their weapons were taken away, their bodies were bound, and they could only watch helplessly as they fell into the hands of the enemy.

Just then, there was another sound from outside the door. Xu Le and Wu Feng were delighted, thinking reinforcements had arrived, but then their hopes dimmed again. Because it wasn't the soldiers they were expecting, but more men in black.

These men in black were obviously prepared. They had a clear division of labor. Some were responsible for guarding Xu Le and Wu Feng, while others began searching the house. Obviously, they weren't just trying to catch these two people, but were looking for something important.

"It seems we really underestimated them," Wu Feng said to Xu Le in a low voice, his tone full of helplessness and unwillingness.

Xu Le remained silent. Now that things had come to this, he was afraid he had gotten into big trouble. He hoped they would give him a quick death when the time came.

It was a pity that he hadn't started a family yet, and didn't have a caring person to warm his bed.

Just then, a man in black suddenly walked up to them, holding the message that Xu Le had bought from Jinxi Tower at great expense.

"What is your relationship with the Su family? Where is Su Min? Do you know?" Xu Le was shocked. Could it be that these people were after that Su Min?

He decided to test the waters first, "Su Min? I don't know any Su Min. I bought this letter from Jinxi Tower."

The man in black stared at Xu Le sharply, "It better be. However, since you bought this message, you can't escape responsibility. Come with us." After speaking, he signaled the other men in black to take Xu Le and Wu Feng away.

Xu Le and Wu Feng were pushed into a carriage, the atmosphere inside filled with tension. The two looked at each other in silence, their hearts filled with helplessness.

He only wanted to make a name for himself, but how did he get into such a mess?

After driving for a while, the carriage finally stopped. Xu Le and Wu Feng were taken out of the car, and before them was a magnificent mansion.

"Where is this?" Xu Le couldn't help but ask.

The man in black snorted coldly, "You'll know when you get there." He led the two into the mansion, to a spacious hall.

In the center of the hall sat a middle-aged man, his expression serious, possessing an imposing presence. The man in black stood respectfully to the side, reporting, "Lord, the people have been brought."

The middle-aged man nodded slightly, his gaze sweeping over Xu Le and Wu Feng, "You are the ones who bought the Su family's message?"

Xu Le bit the bullet and replied, "Yes, we were just curious and wanted to find an opportunity to make a name for ourselves. We really don't know Su Min. You must have misunderstood."

The middle-aged man frowned, "You don't need to quibble. I received information that the last place Su Min appeared before she disappeared was in the area where you were. Ordinary people wouldn't buy such deadly information. Think carefully, or…" He paused, "…you will bear the consequences."

Xu Le and Wu Feng looked at each other, secretly lamenting their bad luck. But at this moment, they had no choice. They couldn't win in a fight, and they couldn't run away.

Seeing that the two were still not speaking, the middle-aged man lost his patience and waved his hand, "Take them down and torture them. I don't believe we can't pry their mouths open."

Xu Le and Wu Feng were led out of the hall, realizing that they had been drawn into an even bigger storm, and more importantly, they were about to be tortured!

Xu Le and Wu Feng walked on the road while being escorted, their hearts filled with heavy pressure. They understood that this middle-aged man was definitely not a kind person, and the threat in his words was not an empty one.

"Wu Feng, what should we do?" Xu Le asked in a low voice, his voice revealing obvious anxiety.

Wu Feng frowned tightly, thinking about countermeasures. But after thinking about it, he still felt there was no solution.

Xu Le looked at Wu Feng's frown, and his heart was completely cold: "The outside world is too scary."
