The Inconceivable Flame: A Fallen Angel“s Disguise - Chapter 271 A Bai
The simple way to get any information without getting your hands was… Hypnosis! Instead of physical torture, it was better to torture someone mentally until they lose their own mind.
Ru's personal knowledge of hypnosis was limited. It was enough to shock the normal people but before the grandmaster level hypnosis of Rong, her skills were not even worth mentioning. Her skills were limited in this field which she just picked up because she was bored. Besides, if she had learned it from her master back at home, her skills might not be inferior to Rong's but Ru never had any interest back then.
Her hypnosis would last temporary and she wouldn't be able to pull off a lot of things. But as she watched her brother displaying his skills, she was in awe. He really was at the level where he could mind control someone to the point of making a person his personal puppet. She remembered his skills weren't this amazing a decade ago but he definitely honed his skills without any rest during this time.
When Tang Yiyi was completely under his control, Ru moved forward and questioned, "Tell me something about yourself."
"Name: Tang Yiyi. Code name: Blue Sniper. Member of Spy Division. Organization Name: Black Mamba."
After confirming everything, Ru further asked, "Now, tell me did you kidnap Xiao Zhiyuan?"
With a blank expression, Tang Yiyi spoke, "Target: Xiao Zhiyuan. Accompanied by two people. One male and one female. Kidnapped during his backpacking trip through Europe."
Ru's hands clenched together as she shook her, "How did you kidnap him?"
"He was kidnapped from the train he took. Our people intercepted it in the middle and killed every member of his protection team before throwing their bodies into the valleys," answered Tang Yiyi. Ru finally understood why they were not able to find any clues.
Ru's fists tightened, "Where is he? What did you do to him? Or what do you plan to do?"
"Headquarters. The orders were to take him to the headquarters but since Knight Empire's people were also looking for him, we decided to hide those three kids in Italy for the meantime. However, today they must be delivered to the headquarters." She suddenly stopped talking and Ru looked at Rong with a confused look. He blinked his eyes to reassure and sure enough, Tang Yiyi began to talk again like a parrot, "He has only been kidnapped. Until now, he is not harmed. He is just a bait anyway."
"Bait?" questioned Ru.
"A bait to catch Xiao Zhiren along with his entire Ji family," answered Tang Yiyi and added, "After the purpose is accomplished, there will be no use of Xiao Zhiyuan left. Eventually, he'll be killed."
Ru raised her fist to punch her face that spouted that nonsense but Rong held her back saying, "Stay calm."
Ru took a deep breath before she asked through gritted teeth, "What's your purpose to stay close to Ji Caihong? Does Ling Qiaolian want to protect her daughter?"
Tang Yiyi scoffed, "Protect that dumb bitch? Never! My aunt doesn't even acknowledge that stupid girl as her daughter. She's only a backdoor to enter the Ji Family."
Ru was disgusted to learn that a mother was just using her daughter for her revenge plans. Just how lowly could this Ling Qiaolian get? It seemed like her shamelessness had no limits.
While Ru was lost in her thoughts, Rong moved and asked, "Give me the location of headquarters."
Ru also listened in as Tang Yiyi gave out the coordinates of the location. As Rong's people typed in the coordinates into the computer before informing him, "Boss, the coordinates lead to 'The Death Valley' mountain ranges."
Rong nodded his head before he gave out his orders, "Take 'good' care of Ms. Tang." That emphasis on 'good' sounded sinister and even Ru could tell what he meant by that.
But she still asked, "Can I kill her now?"
"No hurry," answered Rong as he glanced at Ru's eager eyes. "She is about to live her worst nightmare. By tomorrow, she'll take her own life."
Tsk, she was really gonna live her nightmare through this hypnosis. But Ru felt no pity. Well, not like she had any excessive pity to spare for a vile person like Tang Yiyi. Then she heard Rong ordering his subordinates, "Assemble every single person of our organization. We have a battle awaiting us."
Ru glanced at her brother and held his arm saying, "Big brother, you don't have to get involved in this. My goal is to save Yuan, this has nothing to do with you."
Rong touched her head saying, "If you really think your brother would let you jump in this pit of fire all alone, you're wrong. I didn't build an army for power. I built this army to support you. These are not my people, they are yours. They will pledge their loyalty to you without any hesitation because their loyalty had always been your right."
Ru was touched by this gesture but she still didn't want him to get involved in this. She was already feeling guilty but she couldn't do anything. It might be an easy task for Rong to dissuade his rebellious little Ru but it wasn't easy for Ru to convince her headstrong brother whose only purpose had been to follow her around without any questions.
Since she couldn't convince him to back off, she strode out to find Wu Dishi who had followed her to this villa but decided to stay out the door.
"Wu Dishi," called out Ru and Wu Dishi was in alert mode awaiting his orders. "Assemble every knight of Knight Empire. We are going to war."
Wu Dishi's heart was startled by the intensity of anger and rage in her voice but he didn't dare to delay as he answered, "Yes, Master!"
The people under Ru's command who could survive a battle were above a thousand or so in number but the people under Rong were not even half. It made one wonder how he managed to hold his ground against Knight Empire. But soon Ru figured the answer.
The assassins, mercenaries or other groups of fighters under Ru were all the ones she randomly picked while making her authority clear to the rest of the world. But it wasn't the same for Rong; each person under his command was a skillful master. Each of those skillful masters could really do serious damage to hundreds of common mercenaries or assassins.
However, Ru's group of people wasn't that bad either after she had put them all through rigorous training. They all could match those skillful masters.
It could be said that both their armies were enough to cause the downfall of anyone individually. And if they were able to give enough headache to people alone, together their power could only make one shudder with fear.
