Lu Tianxing didn’t say anything, as he knew Little Bee too well. This guy just loves this kind of unconventional style and always claims it’s his personality, a young man’s individuality.

With a big smile, Lu Tianxing walked over to Little Bee, and the two shared a bear hug.

"Boss, why have you been staying in Tokyo for so long? Is it like Angel said, that you’ve been charmed by that woman from the Dechuan Family and have been indulging in the comforts of her affection?"

Little Bee gave Lu Tianxing a sly smile, then suddenly changed his expression and said solemnly, "But, Boss, as they say, ’Behind every great man is a gentle woman.’ Although you’ve brought honor to China, don’t forget there are several sister-in-laws waiting for you back home! Don’t turn into the modern Chen Shimei, or else we’ll have no choice but to uphold righteousness over kinship."

As he spoke, Little Bee patted Lu Tianxing’s shoulder earnestly, using a melancholic yet profound tone: "We’re brothers. I don’t want that day to come."

Upon hearing Little Bee’s words and sensing his gesture, Lu Tianxing was instantly filled with exasperation, wishing he could smack Little Bee. Do I really look like a man who would be captivated by a woman?

Even if someone were enchanted, it would be women who’d be captivated by me.

"Get lost! I was only delayed by business for a few days, that’s all."

Annoyed, Lu Tianxing pushed Little Bee’s hand off his shoulder, saying, "But you, who knows how many times you’ve fallen for feminine charms? If wasn’t for Manman’s great antidote skills, I bet I’d be making annual visits to the mountain for your grave on Tomb Sweeping Day by now."

When Little Bee heard Lu Tianxing’s words, he scratched his nose sheepishly and said, "Heh heh, Boss, that was just an accident. Who knew that woman would actually poison herself? Besides, even if it were you, you wouldn’t expect a woman to poison herself."

After hearing Little Bee’s words, Lu Tianxing rolled his eyes but had to admit Little Bee was right. Because the woman had poisoned her prized 38F assets, any man placed in that situation would likely fall for it.

"I wouldn’t expect it, but when all’s said and done, it’s because you yourself flirted everywhere. If you didn’t mess around, how would you fall for it?"

"Boss, how is it considered messing around?"

Little Bee replied indignantly, "I’m comforting lonely and isolated women. Just think, late at night, they’re lonely, empty, and cold, yearning for a warm shoulder to lean on. As a man, don’t you think I should offer my shoulder to these solitary women, letting them feel the warmth of the world?"

Upon hearing Little Bee’s words, Lu Tianxing gave him a resentful look and decided not to engage further, directly turning around and walking ahead. Staying with Little Bee any longer would certainly make others think they’re societal delinquents.

Though Little Bee spoke in Chinese, they’re in a foreign land, and there’s no guarantee no one would understand.

Watching Lu Tianxing’s actions, Little Bee said nothing further and turned to walk toward a rugged-looking Hummer parked by the roadside.

After getting in the car, Little Bee started the engine and drove away.

Sitting in the front passenger seat, Lu Tianxing gazed at the scenery whizzing by outside the window, pondering over the matters of this Eagle Country trip.

This time, his trip to Eagle Country had only one purpose: targeting Hades within the Holy Mountain.

Since he wanted to make a mark and let everyone feel his fear, he needed to find a suitable target. Although the Shankou Family was a prominent family in Tokyo, its influence was considerable only in Tokyo. Elsewhere, the Shankou Family was just a second-rate power, unworthy of mention. To assert dominance, the Holy Mountain was obviously the best choice.

Moreover, according to Angel’s information, Hades had been staying at the Redemption Church in London, naturally becoming the target that Lu Tianxing aimed to deal with.

Watching the scenery fly past outside the window, Lu Tianxing took a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, took a gentle drag, and looked at Little Bee, saying, "Little Bee, how’s the investigation going?"

Upon hearing Lu Tianxing’s words, Little Bee sighed and said, "According to our investigation, the Redemption Church is one of Eagle Country’s more ancient churches, and it’s a public tourist attraction. During the day, many tourists visit, but it closes at night, allowing no one to enter. There’s stringent security surrounding it, including infrared and alternating light surveillance."

"Can you hack into these networks?" Lu Tianxing asked.

"Yes."

Little Bee nodded, then said, "However, the pressing issue now is not just the monitoring systems at the Redemption Church. Ever since the news of our actions in Tokyo spread, all forces seem to have received a signal of some kind, withdrawing their experts to their bases. Meanwhile, our identities have become a thorn in these powers’ sides. If we rashly infiltrate the Redemption Church, we might startle the snake. If we reach that point, we’ll not only face Hades but also the entirety of Holy Mountain and all forces hostile to us."

Listening to Little Bee’s words, Lu Tianxing’s face gradually turned a bit more serious, wearing a look of contemplation.

After defeating the Shankou Family in Tokyo, Lu Tianxing had anticipated this situation, but he hadn’t expected the matter to become this troublesome.

"So, do we have to abandon our plan to assassinate Hades?" Lu Tianxing exhaled a smoke ring and asked in a deep voice.

"That’s not necessary."

Little Bee shook his head and said, "Hades’ power isn’t too formidable—peak of Mid-stage Mythical. Given your strength, subduing him shouldn’t be too challenging. If we wish to act, we must settle it quickly. Moreover, we need to map out a precise route ensuring that after dealing with Hades, we can remain unfazed even as all forces react to counter us."

"Have you found this route?"

"Not yet."

Little Bee shook his head, saying, "However, Angel and we have been searching and should have news soon."

"Got it."

Lu Tianxing inhaled deeply and said, "Let’s return to the hotel first."

"Alright, no problem."

Little Bee nodded, saying nothing more as he steered the vehicle toward the London Park Lane Four Seasons Hotel.

This was their temporary base, a hotel under the Morgan Family’s ownership, ensuring no concerns about their whereabouts being exposed.
