"Really?" Zhou Rui exclaimed joyfully.

"Come in quickly." Silver Fox hurriedly pulled Zhou Rui inside, then closed the door and hastily asked, "Where is Lin Chuan?"

"He..." Zhou Rui started, her eyes suddenly reddening.

"What exactly happened to him?" Silver Fox asked anxiously.

"After he left me..." Zhou Rui's eyes reddened, tears streaming down as she choked up: "He then broke up with me, he went to distract the enemies, asking me to find you here, and for you to take me out of the Golden Triangle."

"What?" Silver Fox startled and said, "Has he gone mad? Does he plan to contend with them all by himself?"

"I don't know." Zhou Rui, with her eyes red, said, "Sister, why don't... why don't we go find Lin Chuan?"

"No way." Silver Fox shook her head, saying, "Since Lin Chuan has already instructed me to take you back, I must take you away."

"But, what about Lin Chuan?" Zhou Rui hurriedly said, "He's alone, and there are so many of them. I... I'm worried about him."

"You don't need to worry." Silver Fox shook her head and said, "If he wants to run, probably no one can stop him unless he chooses to die."

Having said that, Silver Fox immediately took Zhou Rui and left the hotel.

It was already past three in the morning, Silver Fox had to take advantage of the night and quickly leave Headless Town with Zhou Rui. If they were not careful, it was very likely that they would be discovered by the enemy, which could lead to trouble. Lin Chuan was not around, she had to rely on herself for everything.

The two left the hotel, and Silver Fox pulled Zhou Rui into the Prado car. Then they drove off.

Just as the car reached the entrance to Headless Town, they immediately encountered a roadblock set up by local warlords for vehicle inspection.

"Not good." Seeing this, Silver Fox quickly turned the car around and sped in another direction.

However, when she drove to another exit of Headless Town, she found that this exit was still blocked by the local warlord's organization, checking the vehicles entering and leaving. Zhou Rui hastily asked, "What... What's going on?"

"They must be searching for us!" Silver Fox declared.

"How could this happen?" Zhou Rui said awkwardly.

"It's because of Black Bear's men." Silver Fox frowned and explained, "Lin Chuan killed so many of their people. They have good relations with Black Bear. So, they must have sought their help. The fact that they're setting up checkpoints to inspect vehicles now clearly means they've found out that you and I haven't left Headless Town."

"Then... What should we do?" Zhou Rui panicked.

"Don't be afraid!" Silver Fox said calmly with a smile, "There must be a way to get out."

Silver Fox quickly turned the car around, driving it into a dark alley, then stopped, turned off the lights, and killed the engine. The inside of the car became instantly quiet. Only the soft breathing of the two could be heard. Zhou Rui's heart was racing fast, her hands praying, "If only Lin Chuan could come back, he would definitely know what our next steps should be."

At this moment, other than praying, it seemed there was no other way left.

The man in dark blue clothes with a mutton-chop beard returned to the manor at the foot of Headless Mountain carrying the body of the bearded man.

Seeing yet another brother killed by Lin Chuan, he immediately felt a surge of nameless anger rise from deep within his heart.

"Damn it, you bunch of losers." The man shouted angrily: "Even a single Lin Chuan you can't capture, what use are you to me!!"

"Boss, the opponent is too cunning," said the man in the dark blue clothes with a wry smile, "We chased him in the forest with dozens of men for over an hour and didn't even see his shadow. Instead, he killed our two dogs and more than a dozen of our brothers. He's an old hand at jungle warfare; it seems he must have a background."

"Son of a bitch." The other gritted his teeth and said: "Come on, let's go to Black Bear."

With that, he flung his clothes and swiftly walked out.

Living on someone else's territory, any action naturally requires the approval of the host, let alone now, with Eagle dealing with a world of trouble himself, and several of his own brothers having been killed by this youngster named Lin Chuan—there was no way he could swallow this grievance.

A group of people swiftly walked towards another end of the villa.

Before long, several men entered a glamorous Thai villa. Outside the hall, a few soldiers armed with guns were patrolling. Inside the hall, Black Bear was lying on the couch sleeping, with two very capable Thai maids attending to him on either side. The temperature was very comfortable at that moment, with the nighttime temperature around twenty-five degrees Celsius, and a thin blanket covering his body, it was very cozy.

"You can't go in."

Just as they were about to enter, they were immediately stopped by soldiers patrolling the north gate.

"Let us in," Eagle shouted: "We need to see the General!"

Black Bear was the master of Headless Town and also a vassal of the Wa State Army. Having surrendered early to the Wa State, he was granted the title of General by the Wa State. Black Bear had always prided himself on being a General, seemingly feeling superior, but that was all there was to it.

"The General has already gone to sleep," replied the soldier at the gate. "Let's discuss it tomorrow."

"No, we have something very important to discuss," Eagle shouted urgently.

The hustle and bustle at the door awoke the man known as Black Bear. He opened his eyes and gestured, "Let them in."

The soldier at the door immediately allowed entry.

Eagle quickly entered with a few people. After entering, a dark-skinned middle-aged man was found lying on the sofa asleep. He wore a black eye patch over his left eye, having lost it in a battle many years ago. Thus, he simply covered it up, which is how he got the nickname Black Bear. He was a typical Thai man.

As soon as Eagle walked in, he knelt on one knee urgently: "General, please help me get revenge."

"Aren't I helping you?" Black Bear spoke up.

"No," Eagle gritted his teeth, "A few months ago, my younger brother and a few of my brothers were brutally killed by a man named Lin Chuan. Now, my fifth brother has also died at his hands. So, I hope the General can send someone to help find Lin Chuan from the mountains."

"Lin Chuan?" Black Bear was stunned and said, "Does this Lin Chuan have any significant background?"

"This…" Eagle shook his head, "No, he's just an ordinary person."

"If he is just an ordinary person, why are you going to such lengths?" Black Bear asked back.

"I…" Eagle stumbled embarrassingly, "am not capable enough."

"No!" Black Bear shook his head, "It's not that you are incapable, but because you have no understanding of Lin Chuan."

"This…" Eagle stumbled embarrassingly again.

At that moment, Eagle stood up from the sofa, the blanket covering him falling to the floor. He glanced at the Eagle, and said, "This Lin Chuan is perhaps not simple."

"General, no matter how formidable he is, can he be more dangerous than firearms?" Eagle spoke up.

"In this world, there is a kind of person far more dangerous than firearms," Black Bear said coldly, smiling, "It is rumored in China there is a special forces unit called Dark Soldier. This unit doesn't have many members, yet each possesses extraordinary skills capable of killing from a thousand miles away. Years ago, the leader of Wa State, Kay, was killed by this organization. Yet to this day, Wa State has not been able to ascertain how many members this group has."

"Really?" Eagle was suddenly shocked.

"Hmph." Black Bear sneered: "This is why we'd rather provoke the United States, Japan, but not China!"

"This…" Eagle was dumbfounded.

"However, I will try my best to help you this time," Black Bear replied.

"Thank you, General." Eagle was overjoyed.

Black Bear touched his chin, his only eye squinting, seemingly deep in thought. However, nobody knew what he was thinking about, nor could anyone guess what he was pondering internally.

The death of the Wa State leader Kay had always been a mystery within Wa State. Some say it was secretly orchestrated by the current leader, while others believe it was due to Wa State Army offending China, thus the Chinese government dispatched a secret unit to execute him.

By chance, Black Bear heard that there might be a person named Lin Chuan within that Chinese Dark Soldier unit, who is codenamed Dark Wolf.

As to whether this information was reliable or precise, no one knew. After all, it concerned the highest level of China's government secrets. Not to mention himself, even the Wa State Army, with its considerable influence, has been unable to uncover any clues so far.

After pondering for a moment, Black Bear shouted towards the door, "Come in."

"General!" The soldiers at the door hastily stepped in.

"Go, bring Li Ren and Zai here," Black Bear ordered.

"Yes!" The soldier nodded.

Soon after, two men in military uniforms hurried over from outside, one of them still emitting a strong smell of alcohol. They rushed in and quickly said, "General, is there urgent business for calling us in the middle of the night?"

"Yes!" Black Bear nodded, "I need you to find a man named Lin Chuan in Headless Town. The sooner, the better."

The two were stunned, exchanged glances, and then hastily nodded in agreement: "Yes!"

In Headless Town, Black Bear was the boss—his words were commands, his commands were supreme orders. Li Ren and Zai turned and left.

Before long, Headless Town became even more bustling.

A team of several hundred people began patrolling the streets, conducting inspections. Almost all the hotels in town had their doors knocked on, and one by one were searched. The night's search not only failed to find a man named Lin Chuan but also sparked several conflicts, resulting in five or six shootouts. Although the opponents were all eliminated in the end, the losses were not minor, and a few brothers even died.

"Zai, why do you think the General is doing this?" Li Ren asked confusingly.

"Who knows!" Zai shrugged helplessly, "Perhaps this person offended the General."

"That might not necessarily be the case," Li Ren shook his head.

Eagle and his brothers also went up the mountain to search, but still returned without success.
