The emergency exit door on the third floor was suddenly pulled open. The staff guarding the exit turned his head, only to see a few unfamiliar faces. He immediately blocked the exit and gave them a stern warning. “Outsiders aren’t allowed on the third—”

Before he could finish saying his piece, Lu Yī, Lu Jiu, Lu Shi, and the others swiftly moved to subdue him. After making him pass out with a whack to the nape of his neck, they tossed him aside.

The reason they had only made him pass out was that Lu Chengzhou had ordered them not to take any lives. Lu Yī and the others thus exercised restraint. Otherwise, they could’ve killed that person with just their bare hands.

Having worked for Lu Chengzhou for a long time, Lu Yī could tell that his boss was trying hard not to get his hands stained with blood ever since he found out that Gu Mang was pregnant. In fact, Lu Chengzhou was so superstitious that he even placed a consecrated Buddha sculpture in his Red Flame office and prayed to it every day.

Before this, Lu Yī could never imagine that Lu Chengzhou would ever believe in Buddhism. Of course, the former knew who the latter was doing all these for. Lu Chengzhou was never certain about anything that had to do with Gu Mang, and that was why he didn’t hesitate to turn to Buddhism to accumulate merit.

The group of people walked out from the emergency exit.

The earlier commotion had alerted the staff patrolling on the third floor. A flurry of anxious footsteps could be heard approaching.

Lu Yī pressed the earphone and said, “Close the main gate.”

“Understood,” responded the person who had already taken control of the power distribution room.

Meanwhile.

“What’s going on over there?”

“I think someone has come up to the third floor.”

“Let’s go over and check it out.”

The voices, along with the sound of weapons being loaded, came from the corridor area.

The next second, the entire third floor descended into darkness. Having temporarily lost their sense of sight, everyone stood still and dared not to move around lest they cause confusion.

“What’s going on? Why did the lights go out?!” The speaker was looking around, but he couldn’t even see his hands in the darkness.

This lot of people had undergone strict training, so they instinctively moved to have their backs facing each other in order to defend themselves.

“Contact the power supply room,” ordered the leader calmly. However, he frowned immediately after he said that because he sensed an approaching danger. Before he could react, the other party had made a move.

The entire corridor was filled with the sound of fighting.

Lu Yī and the rest were wearing night-vision goggles, so they had the advantage in the darkness. In less than one minute, Lan Sha’s men were all lying on the ground.

Lu Chengzhou, He Yidu, and Qin Fang stepped across them and headed straight to Lan Sha’s observation deck.

…

On the observation deck.

The auction was still going on normally downstairs. Although the lights had gone out in the room, it didn’t affect the people inside as the light from outside was shining in from the window.

Lan Sen said, “There might be a problem with the circuit. I’ll go out to take a look.”

Lan Sha nodded.

Lan Sen turned around and walked to the door, only to see a group of unfamiliar faces when he opened the door. As outsiders were strictly prohibited from going up to the third floor unless they had Lan Sen’s permission, it was clear that this group of people came uninvited with ulterior motives.

“Who are you people?” He took a glance outside as he icily posed the question at them. It was very dim outside, so he could barely see the faces and clothes of the people standing in the corridor, and none of them were their men.

They’ve all been taken down?

Lan Sen’s heart sank, and he clenched his fists slightly. He didn’t do anything though as they were apparently outnumbered.

“Our boss just wants to have a talk with Mr. Lan. Please step aside. Oh, and don’t worry, your buddies are fine. We merely knocked them out.” Lu Yī flashed a polite smile at him. Although he spoke courteously to the other, his actions weren’t. He pushed Lan Sen away from the door.

He Yidu and Qin Fang didn’t go in and only stood at the entrance.

With a hand in his pocket, Lu Chengzhou slowly made his way onto the observation deck, and Lu Jiu immediately closed the door from outside.

Lan Sha, who had been sitting on the sofa the entire time, cast his cool gaze on Lu Chengzhou. As it was a little dark in the room, he couldn’t see Lu Chengzhou’s face clearly.

Lu Chengzhou sat across from Lan Sha and leaned back against the sofa while putting a leg atop his knee and placing his arms on the armrests. It was a very arrogant sitting pose.

Lu Yī, meanwhile, stood behind him.

After a few seconds of silence, Lu Chengzhou spoke up. “Mr. Lan, you should be pretty clear about what I want, so let’s not waste time anymore. Just tell me, are you going to accept our orders regarding Base 102?”

“No, please go back.” Without showing any changes in his expression, Lan Sha calmly
