Myth Beyond Heaven

Chapter 432 - Cloud Shadow (5)

Yun Lintian dragged the middle-aged man into hiding behind his stall and rummaged through his body to something. A moment later, he found a handgun on the man's waist and nothing more.

Lei Hao slowly moved his wheelchair to Yun Lintian's side and glanced at the gun in the latter's hand. "Glock G forty-eight?" His brows raised in surprise. 

This kind of gun was pretty common in the USA, but definitely not in China. With how strict China's weapon restriction was, it was extremely difficult to smuggle it. There was only one possible — the person behind this man definitely held a high position in the country.

Lei Hao turned to Yun Lintian and asked. "Boss, you shouldn't hide anything from me like this. Although I'm not good as before, I can still move my hands. Tell me, what did Sister Lynn tell you?"

Yun Lintian replied while checking the gun's magazine. "Lynn got the news about Hell Church. They seem to lurk in this country."

  Lei Hao's complexion changed drastically. His brows sank, and a deep hatred could be seen in his eyes. He subconsciously grabbed his thigh while his entire body trembled.

Yun Lintian glanced at the depressed Lei Hao, and his hands subconsciously clenched on the gun. The tragic scene in the past emerged in his mind. It was as if he had returned to that day when he led his brothers into the battlefield.

Yun Lintian tried his best to suppress his unstable emotion and said. "Sorry."

Lei Hao's body stopped shaking. He raised his head to look at Yun Lintian with a faint smile. "How many times do I have to tell you, Boss? It's not your fault. Since we made a decision together, we could also accept the outcome. I believe Sister Rain, Brother Sky, and Little Earth would say this if they were here."

A pang of pain burst in Yun Lintian's heart when he heard this. A beautiful figure covered in blood and told him to live well appeared in his mind. And there was also a scene where two good brothers of his tried to protect his retreat route with their lives. It was the scene he would never forget for the rest of his life.

Yun Lintian involuntarily clutched his chest, and his breath became chaotic. This state stayed for a full minute before Yun Lintian recovered. His eyes gradually became firm as he looked at Lei Hao.

"Sorry." Yun Lintian said with a sad expression while approaching Lei Hao.

Lei Hao's mind turned quickly. He immediately understood what Yun Lintian was going to do next. He frantically moved his wheelchair, but it was too late. Yun Lintian had already arrived behind him and tightly locked Lei Hao with a sleeper hold posture.

"NO! You can't do this, Boss! We have to fight together!" Lei Hao struggled and roared madly as he was dragged into the narrow path behind the stall. 

Yun Lintian's action was swift. The passersby didn't even notice this scene as they were busy with their own businesses.

"I'm begging you…Please, let me fight with you, Boss." Lei Hao's consciousness gradually weakened, and his strength slowly left his body. He tried his best to stay sane while struggling to turn his head.

Yun Lintian's face was calm. There wasn't even a little emotion in it. He whispered. "I will leave this stall to you. Be sure to make it the number one fried rice stall in the world."

"No, Boss…" Streaks of tears flowed down along Lei Hao's cheeks. The moment he noticed the gun from the middle-aged man and coupled with the Hell Church's news, he immediately understood there was someone in the country trying to silence Yun Lintian and him. He was ready to fight to the death but did not expect Yun Lintian to do this to him.

In the next moment, Lei Hao's eyelids became heavier and fell unconscious. Tears were still flowing out of his tightly shut eyes as they were expressing how unwilling he was.

Yun Lintian looked at the tearful Lei Hao in his embrace and gently patted his chest. "I'm sorry for everything. If I didn't insist on going back then, you would still be Lightning, the fastest man alive until now. Rain, Sky, and Earth would still be alive as well."

"I should be the one who died on that day instead of you guys... I know I owe all of you a huge debt, and my life alone can never be enough to repay it. But please let me… Let me use this useless life of mine to exchange for Ah'Hao first. If there is a next life, I will repay all of you one by one."

Rumble—

All of a sudden, the sky gradually darkened, and a group of black clouds gathered, followed by a thundering roar. It was as though the sky could feel Yun Lintian's sorrow. Drop after drop turned into a torrent of rain, aiming to wash the pain in his heart away.

Yun Lintian stood silently while holding Lei Hao in his arms. His eyes gradually turned cold before turning around and bringing Lei Hao toward Uncle Xu's store.

Using one hand to push the door open while carrying Lei Hao with another hand, Yun Lintian gradually walked into a small noodle store. There was no customer at this moment. Only Uncle Xu could be seen sitting on a chair while reading a newspaper.

Uncle Xu turned toward the door and saw Yun Lintian standing there with Lei Hao in his arms. Surprisingly, Uncle Xu's expression was calm, as though he had already expected this a long time ago.

He smiled faintly and said. "Are you here to avoid the rain? And what happened to Little Hao?"

Yun Lintian stared at Uncle Xu expressionlessly for a while before saying. "Uncle Xu. No. I should call you Leader Xu of the Hidden Dragon Group. I want to exchange something with you for his safety. I am sure you'll satisfy with it."

Uncle Xu, Xu Longfeng, had a strange look when he heard this. He stared at Yun Lintian for a moment and broke into a smile. "As expected from you, Cloud, the leader of the legendary mercenary group, Cloud Shadow.. My identity can't be hidden from you at all."
