Dream Capture: I Can See Through All Secrets!

151: 151. Decapitation OperationWhen Lu Feng and his group arrived in the Golden Triangle, this lawless land, they weren’t there to negotiate.

Both Lu Feng and Yu Tianxiong knew that with the Li Family father and daughter’s vengeful and vicious nature, a peaceful resolution was impossible.

Here, simple and brutal force was the most direct and effective method.

”Stop the damn chatter, old dog, bring out all the good stuff for us to see,” Tian Peng said, directly tossing a heavy small backpack over the high counter.

The old dog caught the backpack, unzipped it, and glanced inside; it was neatly stacked with cash.

He immediately grinned, his face creased with wrinkles, and enthusiastically came out from behind the counter, opening a heavy iron door nearby: ”Very generous! Old customers are always straightforward! Come in and pick whatever you want, it’s all fresh, hard-to-get goods!”

”Black market arms dealer?” Yu Tianxiong asked Tian Peng in a low voice as he followed him inside.

Tian Peng nodded: ”Hmm, this old guy has very wild connections; as long as the money is right, he can get anything from individual weapons to heavy firepower, and even intelligence.”

Stepping into the inner room, it resembled a messy but well-stocked armory.

Lu Feng was truly amazed; in this not-so-large space, everything from compact Glock pistols, various models of assault rifles, sniper rifles, to shotguns, light machine guns, and even individual rocket launchers were prominently displayed. Judging by their maintenance and packaging, many were brand new.

”We just got a batch of Russian-made AK-12s recently, good stuff, strong stability, fierce firepower. Want a few? I’ll give you a discount,” the old dog said, rubbing his hands and trying hard to recommend them.

He didn’t need to say much; Tian Peng and the team members’ eyes lit up, and they began to skillfully select their equipment.

Assault rifles, matching suppressors, multiple ammunition loads, pistols, tactical vests, bulletproof plates, military daggers, thermal imagers, night vision goggles... everyone quickly equipped themselves with a full set of special operations gear.

When these battle-hardened men were fully geared up, their entire demeanor instantly underwent a drastic change, transforming from sharp bodyguards into war machines exuding cold killing intent.

Even Yu Tianxiong put on a lightweight bulletproof vest and tucked a loaded pistol into his waistband.

When it came time to pay, the old dog generously rounded down the total, smiling, ”You gentlemen clearly have big things to do. Just keep coming back for business.”

As they parted, the old dog, uncharacteristically serious, whispered a word of advice: ”Although I don’t know what earth-shattering deeds you gentlemen are up to, things have been a bit tight around here lately. You gentlemen... try to keep the commotion down; it’s better for everyone.”

... Emerging from another, more concealed passage in the armory, each person carried a travel bag containing less sensitive equipment.

As soon as they reached the alley entrance, Tian Peng keenly noticed they had a tail.

The group exchanged glances, saying nothing, but tacitly made a turn.

The footsteps behind them followed closely. The man didn’t rush in but cautiously waited a few seconds at the turn before quietly poking his head out.

Then he saw a large hand enlarge before his eyes, grabbing his face and dragging him directly into the alley.

The Blacksmith held the man against the wall, who struggled wildly. The next moment, sharp pain shot through his arm. Looking down, he saw a dagger piercing his arm, pinning it to the wooden board behind him.

Engineer Lei pulled out his gun and pressed it against the man’s temple, saying calmly, ”Confess yourself.”

The man immediately wet himself with fear, trembling as he recounted the events.

As expected, he was a minion sent by the Li Family to stake them out.

Yu Tianxiong wasn’t surprised. He simply lifted his foot, and with a crisp ’crack,’ he decisively crippled one of the man’s hands.

The intense pain made the man let out a pig-like shriek.

Yu Tianxiong’s voice was icy: ”Go back and tell Li Fang that I, Yu Tianxiong, have arrived.”

After speaking, he didn’t spare the man another glance, turning and leaving with his people.

The minion screamed as he scrambled back to the Li Family’s estate to report. Seeing the situation, Li Fang immediately flew into a rage: ”Arrogant! Too arrogant! How dare he be so brazen when death is at his doorstep!”

Just then, another subordinate rushed in to report: ”Boss, we found them! They booked two rooms at the Jinli Hotel on 38th Street, 208 and 209.”

”Excellent!”

Li Fang’s face twisted into a sinister smile. ”Arrange our men, bring silenced weapons, and go in tonight! Except for Yu Tianxiong, who we need to capture alive, all other Xia Kingdom citizens are to be killed on sight! I’ll personally inform the police and the General!”

He decided to eliminate this major threat in the most direct and brutal way... Late at night, Jinli Hotel.

A group of masked, armed thugs violently burst into the hotel lobby.

The front desk attendant, who had been dozing, was startled awake by the commotion and opened his eyes in terror.

Just as he was about to speak, a cold gun barrel was pressed against his forehead: ”Shut up! We’ll leave when we’re done; don’t make trouble for yourself!”

The front desk attendant trembled all over, tears streaming down his face, nodding frantically.

”The group of Xia Kingdom citizens who checked in today, they’re in 208 and 209, right? Have they gone out?”

The front desk attendant shook his head frantically.

”Good. Stay put!”

The thug leader waved his hand. One subordinate stayed to guard and locked the glass doors of the lobby, while the others, carrying silenced rifles, cautiously and swiftly moved towards the second floor.

Arriving at the doors of rooms 208 and 209, one man crouched at the threshold to listen. Hearing no sound, he shook his head. The thugs behind him exchanged glances, then simultaneously kicked open the doors and rushed in with their guns raised!

However, the expected resistance and panic did not occur.

Both rooms were empty! The beds were neatly made, as if no one had ever stayed there!

”Where are they?!”

”Search quickly!”

This strange situation made the thugs feel uneasy. They quickly checked the bathrooms, wardrobes, and even under the beds, but found nothing.

A sudden, inexplicable chill shot up their spines.

Disappeared? Where did the targets go?

Did they get the news in advance?

... Under the dark moon and strong winds, outside the heavily guarded, vast Li Family estate.

Tian Peng and his group were crouched in the dense bushes in the dark, using night vision goggles to observe the estate’s layout, a detailed map bought from the black market spread out in their hands.

”Fight as silently as possible, prioritize clearing the outer sentries. The goal is a decapitation strike, quick and decisive,” Tian Peng whispered, giving instructions.

”Received.”

After finalizing the action plan, the group, like ghosts blending into the night, silently dispersed, stealthily moving to their respective planned attack positions.

With the help of advanced night vision and thermal imagers, the security patrol patterns, hidden sentry locations, and surveillance blind spots around the estate were quickly identified.

In the darkness, Tian Peng raised his rifle, fitted with a long suppressor. The crosshairs locked firmly onto a heat signature in a distant treetop. He spoke softly into his communication device: ”Southeast direction, three hidden sentries, simultaneous elimination. Listen for my command, three, two, one...”

”Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...”

Three extremely faint sounds, occurring simultaneously from different directions, were immediately covered by the wind.

The three heat signatures in the distant treetop and shadows vanished in response, motionless.

”Targets eliminated.”

”Safe passage opened, continue advance.”

A temporary safe passage leading into the estate was cleared. Tian Peng’s team moved swiftly, silently scaling the wall, and like shadows, infiltrated the interior of the estate...
