In the instant Lu Yu suddenly exerted force under his feet, his body technique became strange. His body swayed continuously, and every gesture gave off an incredibly ethereal and ghostly feel, like willow branches swaying in the wind, creating an illusion of floating!

Shaking Willow!

At this moment, as four streams of airflow slashed from different directions, Lu Yu used the body technique he learned from Jin Huanzhong!

In an instant, his body swayed to the left and right. Although it seemed ethereal and illusory, it allowed the four streams of airflow to miss completely in an instant!

Seeing Lu Yu's ghostly body technique, Gu Yunqi's anger intensified. His forehead veins bulged, and as Lu Yu's body swayed, his right foot stomped heavily on the ground!

Bang!

With that stomp, a dull sound echoed beneath Gu Yunqi's feet. Immediately, his figure became like a gust of wind, flashing rapidly. Suddenly, a knife slashed out horizontally, instantly locking all of Lu Yu's escape routes!

"This time, let's see where you run!"

At this moment, Gu Yunqi shouted angrily, with a hint of cruelty in his voice!

Seeing this slash coming, Lu Yu narrowed his eyes, just preparing to respond when suddenly, an unexpected change occurred!

Bang!

In an instant, a dull sound erupted from behind Lu Yu. The sound was heavy, traveling far in the silent night, scaring birds from distant trees into a startled flight!

Following the dull sound, an incredibly sharp bullet flew out, directly striking the samurai sword Gu Yunqi swung!

Clang!

With a crisp sound, sparks flew off the samurai sword, and Gu Yunqi only felt his wrist tremble. A sudden surge of immense force rushed toward his wrist!

Feeling the tremendous force, Gu Yunqi dared not hesitate at all. He swung his samurai sword swiftly in a flourish, dissipating the force, and a look of shock appeared in his eyes!

Sniper weapon!

Silently exclaiming, Gu Yunqi was extremely surprised. Now, his right hand was still trembling slightly, evidently due to the sudden shot!

Gu Yunqi never expected someone to assist him with a sniper weapon at this moment!

And this time, it wasn't just Gu Yunqi who was surprised. Even Lu Yu, standing nearby, had a serious expression in his eyes.

Lu Yu knew very well that this shot was definitely fired by Li Ming!

First, he informed Lu Yu that the Gu Family people were tailing him, called Gu Yunqi to reveal Lu Yu's location,

And now, Li Ming fired again to protect Lu Yu!

There is no gratuitous love in this world, nor is there gratuitous hatred. Behind Li Ming's series of strange actions, there must be some unknown secret!

"I really didn't expect you to bring help!"

After his trembling arm recovered, Gu Yunqi gripped his samurai sword tighter, looked at Lu Yu coldly, and said, "Hiding in the dark, then at a critical moment, one shot to kill. What a deep scheme!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Yu couldn't help but smile. He didn't explain much about Gu Yunqi's remarks.

Because, in that instant, Li Ming did indeed help him!

So, he didn't bother to explain anything to Gu Yunqi, as it was entirely unnecessary!

"It looks like today you've calculated against me!"

Seeing Lu Yu silent, Gu Yunqi said coldly, and then his figure swayed, attempting to escape!

With the formidable Lu Yu in front, and a sniper assisting from behind, he had no chance of winning today!

Bang!

Just then, as Gu Yunqi began to move, another gunshot rang out, sealing Gu Yunqi's escape!

Encircle but do not kill!

Seeing this scene, Lu Yu coldly remarked to himself, Li Ming is clearly trying to prevent Gu Yunqi from leaving!

First, he helped me, and now he stops Gu Yunqi from leaving. Combined with Li Ming's previous strange actions, a flash of insight made everything clear to Lu Yu.

It turns out the Jin Family hired Li Ming and Song Hao to come to LA City not to kill Gu Yunqi, but to assist Lu Yu in killing Gu Yunqi!

Thinking of this, a cold light flashed in Lu Yu's eyes!

Let Li Ming and Song Hao assist him in killing Gu Yunqi, and then by extension, completely exacerbate the conflict between him and the Gu Family, while the Jin Family quietly watches everything from the sidelines.

When Lu Yu and the Gu Family are both severely weakened, the Jin Family will then swoop in, capturing Lu Yu and simultaneously uproot the Gu Family and reap the rewards!

What a brilliant two birds with one stone strategy!

No wonder Li Ming would step in to protect me, and why he arranged for me to face Gu Yunqi!

It was all to provoke a fight between me and Gu Yunqi, making me kill Gu Yunqi with my own hands to execute the Jin Family's sordid plot!

Understanding all this made Lu Yu's heart grow wary. He hadn't expected that beneath the Jin Family's calm surface lay such a ruthless conspiracy!

Jin Qingyun, you're truly a master strategist!

Right now, Lu Yu instantly understood everything. At the same time, he turned his gaze, and a plan to turn the tables formed in his mind!

Since Li Ming and Song Hao's duties are to protect him and assist him in personally killing Gu Yunqi.

Then, if Li Ming or Song Hao were to shoot Gu Yunqi instead, it would lead to a completely different outcome!

If Gu Yunqi died at his hands, it would certainly escalate the conflict between him and the Gu Family!

However, if Gu Yunqi dies at the hands of Li Ming or Song Hao, who are employed by the Jin Family, it could immediately shift the Gu Family's hatred onto the Jin Family!

Thinking of this, a cold smile appeared on Lu Yu's face. His muscles rippled, returning to their original state. Looking at Gu Yunqi, he said coldly, "Yes, I've been plotting against you. You thought that call simply told you my location?"

"It was all to lure you into the trap, you fool!"

At this moment, Lu Yu mocked Gu Yunqi, his words full of wry amusement!

He wanted to infuriate Gu Yunqi, make him attack with full force, and then he would intentionally leave an opening for Gu Yunqi!

By then, Li Ming would surely shoot to protect him, and that moment would be the key to his entire plan!
