627: Chapter 627: Breaking with the Yan Family 627: Chapter 627: Breaking with the Yan Family “Just a minor military officer from Bend Province, and still so arrogant?
As an officer of Bend Province, you instigated trouble and led a special forces team into Yanxia, thinking I’d be too scared to deal with you?” Lin Shuang sneered coldly.
Yan Rulong wanted to retort, but Lin Shuang slapped him repeatedly, fracturing his cheekbone and distorting his entire face.
Under such ruthless interrogation by Lin Shuang, Yan Rulong finally confessed everything.
He was one of the generals stationed on Kinmen Island.
The Yan Family was one of the four major political families of Bend Province.
The Yan Family’s legion was responsible for guarding Kinmen Island.
And Yan Rulong was the general of Kinmen Island, effectively the second in command there.
This time, he was ordered by the Yan Family Crown Prince to specifically dispatch a whole special forces team to carry out a beheading mission!
Their mission was to assassinate Lin Shuang!
“Huh, the Yan Family?
Quite bold, aren’t you?
I haven’t troubled you yet, but you came looking for trouble first?” Lin Shuang scoffed.
He pulled a cell phone from Yan Rulong’s pocket, “Call your Yan Family military headquarters.
Tell them to pay 500 billion for your ransom.”
Trembling, Yan Rulong dialed the highest commander on Kinmen Island, fearing for his life.
Ten kilometers off the coast, Kinmen Island.
Yan Family military base.
In the command center on Kinmen Island, Yan Shi, the supreme commander of the Yan Family military, sat waiting for news of the victorious return of the Rattlesnake Special Forces.
This time, they had deployed the Yan Family’s formidable Rattlesnake Special Forces to take down Lin Shuang, making a big deal out of a small matter.
Yan Shi only needed to wait for his men to bring back Lin Shuang’s head.
“Ding-a-ling~!” Just then, the command center phone suddenly rang.
Commander Yan Shi glanced at the caller ID, it was a call from General Yan Rulong.
A flash of relief crossed Yan Shi’s eyes, indicating the mission of the Rattlesnake unit was accomplished.
Yan Shi immediately answered the phone, “Is the mission accomplished?
Have you brought back Lin Shuang’s head?
Is Su Wanqiao in our hands?
Lin Shuang can die, but Su Wanqiao must be alive, got that?”
However, from the other end of the line, Yan Rulong’s trembling voice came, “Commander Shi…
the mission…
failed…
I’ve been captured by Lin Shuang…
I need to speak with you…”
Shoosh~!
Commander Yan Shi’s expression suddenly changed!
Soon Lin Shuang’s indifferent voice came through the phone, “You’re the chief commander of Kinmen Island, right?
Quite bold, sending special forces to invade the inland territory of Yanxia?
You’re not afraid that Yanxia might send troops to flatten your tiny Kinmen Island?”
Yan Shi, gripping the phone, responded coldly, “Release Yan Rulong.
He is a high official of the Yan military.
If you harm him, you declare war on the Yan Family.”
On the other end of the phone, Lin Shuang laughed upon hearing that, “Releasing him can be arranged, for 500 billion in ransom.
Cash for the person.”
Upon hearing this, Yan Shi clenched his teeth, “Are you bargaining with the Yan Family?
Do you realize the consequences of offending the Yan Family?
We have ruled Bend Island for nearly a hundred years.
Can you withstand that?”
On the other end, Lin Shuang sighed in resignation, “My patience is limited, either pay up or he dies.
Think it over.
500 billion isn’t too steep a price for a general’s life, is it?
Surely, the Yan Family invests a lot in training one, right?”
“The amount you’re asking for is too much, I need to consult with the family,” Yan Shi gritted his teeth.
Over the phone, Lin Shuang chuckled coldly, “All right, I’ll give you ten minutes.
Give me a reply within ten minutes or else.”
After finishing, Lin Shuang hung up the phone directly.
The chief commander of Kinmen Island, Yan Shi, wore a grim expression as he immediately dialed the Crown Prince Yan Jin’s phone.
“Reporting to Prince Yan Jin, the mission failed…
the Rattlesnake Special Forces have been annihilated…
Yan Rulong is captured, the other party is demanding 500 billion for his release…
What do you think, should we pay the ransom?” Commander Yan Shi asked solemnly.
Shoosh~!
Upon hearing the news, Crown Prince Yan Jin was instantly furious!
“What?!
Rubbish!
All of you are rubbish!
The entire Rattlesnake Special Forces obliterated?
What are you even good for!” Yan Jin fumed over the phone.
This was one of his family’s top special forces units.
“They want 500 billion?!
Is he dreaming?!
Buy some time!
Agree to his demands for now!
Then secretly dispatch a covert unit to cross the sea and rescue Yan Rulong!
Once back on Kinmen Island, he wouldn’t dare follow!” ordered Crown Prince Yan Jin over the phone.
“Understood, General!” Commander Yan Shi responded!
Yan Shi soon called Lin Shuang back, willing to pay 500 billion.
But due to the large sum, they needed to gather funds and asked for a two-hour wait.
Meanwhile, Yan Shi secretly prepared a covert special forces unit, which made a night crossing to the mainland in Fujian Province.
The secret forces directly infiltrated the Su Family Manor.
…
Late at night, the Su Family Manor.
Lin Shuang was initially waiting for the Yan Family to transfer the funds.
Unexpectedly, the Yan Family’s secret special forces suddenly burst in, catching Lin Shuang off-guard.
In the end, the thousand plus members of the Yan Family’s secret special forces sent were again annihilated.
However, General Yan Rulong seized this opportunity to escape.
Yan Rulong fled to the sea and directly made it to Kinmen Island across the strait!
Lin Shuang’s face turned icy, and without hesitation, he pursued!
