That person was Serena, the CEO of Serena Group.Ozark remembered clearly that Serena was in the lab when they began their operation. They had timed their plan to coincide with her presence, just in case.If he could not get the hard drive, he could at least capture Serena. That would still count as completing the mission.After all, Serena Group would not ignore Serena's fate, and she surely knew the password.Ozark recalled seeing Serena's position before the chaos erupted. She should be nearby, probably still in this lab.He had not seen her outside when he slipped in during the confusion.Typically, in a lab emergency, security would prioritize protecting Serena. The guards searching during the chaos must have been looking for someone.The answer was obvious.Furious, Ozark kicked the safe hard, venting his frustration. His eyes coldly scanned the surroundings.The smoke in the lab had mostly cleared, visibility improving to about four or five meters and continuing to get better.S

It was not over yet.Xayne's iron fist landed squarely on Ozark's chest.With just one punch, Ozark's chest caved in completely, blood gushing out uncontrollably.Then, the second punch followed.The third punch came right after, collapsing Ozark's chest entirely.Ozark opened his mouth and spewed a mouthful of blood.Xayne showed no mercy, his body covered in blood splatters.After three punches, Ozark's ribs were all shattered, his internal organs pulverized. No divine intervention could save him now.Serena slumped on the ground and gasped for air, her vision blurry. She saw Xayne furiously venting his rage as the lab filled with the stench of blood.Ozark lay in a pool of blood, lifeless, his eyes wide open in death.Xayne walked over to Serena, observing her flushed face. "How are you? Are you okay?"Serena took a deep breath, holding her neck. She looked at Xayne and shook her head. "I'm fine. How is he?""Dead," Xayne replied coldly, glancing at Ozark's body.Serena

Serena sat on the couch, gently touching her neck. Her mind was filled with the image of Xayne covered in blood. She could not help but zone out.When she recalled the scene in the lab, especially the critical moment when Xayne appeared, her eyes sparkled with a sense of happiness.In no time, Xayne returned, holding a small medicine bottle. He held up the red bottle and said, "Stay still."Serena immediately straightened up, obediently sitting like a well-behaved child. Upon closer inspection, her neck was as fair as snow, with bruises starkly visible, some even seeping blood."This medicine will heal the scars and regenerate the skin. It's very effective," Xayne said as he poured some of the liquid into his hand and rubbed his palms together to warm it up. "My wife is so beautiful, it wouldn’t be right for her neck to have scars."Hearing this, Serena looked up at Xayne, her eyes shining brightly."It might sting a bit at first, but then it'll feel cool. Just bear with it," Xay

Xayne did not pay attention to how Serena was reacting. Instead, he crouched beside Ozark's corpse. Sometimes, corpses tell the underlying truth. He ripped open Ozark's lab coat, exposing his entire body. Pale skin, some bruising, and a completely collapsed chest that felt soft and squishy like cotton.Serena frowned with a nauseating urge, but she stood her ground. Xayne examined the body thoroughly. Aside from some wounds, there were no other distinguishing marks or identifiers.'No tattoos or marks to indicate his affiliation with a killer organization?'Xayne shook his head and walked to the unconscious Ziglar, giving him a few kicks. Ziglar awoke in pain, gasping as the agony in his knees and shoulders hit him.Opening his eyes, he saw Xayne's smiling face and instinctively assumed a defensive posture. However, moving aggravated his wounds, causing blood to gush out."I advise you not to move. It'll speed up your blood loss and lead to shock," Xayne said while grinning. His k

"Flame King! That guy said it earlier. The mastermind is the Flame King!"Beside them, Serena suddenly interjected, pointing to the now-lifeless body of Ozark.'Flame King?!'Hearing that name, Xayne frowned deeply, and rage erupted in his chest."Him again, damn it!"Flames of fury ignited in Xayne's eyes.Ziglar immediately felt the wave of murderous intent pouring off Xayne, as overwhelming as a flood. The killing intent was like a demon, making him feel like he was in hell.Xayne sneered, "Flame King, I haven't even gone after you yet, and you strike first!"Since the enemy had made a move, there was no need for Xayne to hold back anymore. He would do everything to protect Serena.Even if it meant going up against an entire assassin organization, so be it.The fierce determination in Xayne's eyes grew stronger, and it was terrifying to behold.He crossed his arms and spoke coldly, "Deadly Stingers, I don't think your organization needs to exist anymore. Since you dared t
