Chapter 777 The Rebellious Prince
coming!
Shen Guiling pressed against the cold brick wall, breathing very softly, his ears moving slightly to pick up the subtle sounds outside the iron gate.
There was more than one person, and they were cautiously walking on the steps leading to the bottom of the cellar.
They came faster than he expected. It seemed that Shen Nian was really anxious.
"Squeak-"
Just when the iron door was pushed open a crack again!
Shen Guiling suddenly leaned out from the shadows, stretched his arms straight, and without even aiming, fired two quick bursts of shots towards the crack in the door!
"Bang! Bang!"
The gunshots exploded in the small space of the cellar, deafening.
There was a muffled groan outside the door and the heavy sound of a body rolling down the stairs.
Without any pause, Shen Guiling moved the muzzle of his gun upwards instantly, aiming at the incandescent lamp that was shaking constantly and creating chaotic light and shadows!
"boom!"
A third shot rang out! The lightbulb shattered, scattering glass shards like ice crystals. The entire cellar was instantly plunged into complete, suffocating darkness, with only the faint flash of fire from the muzzle of the gun leaving a brief afterimage on the retina.
Darkness became his best armor.
There were shouts of shock and anger and the sound of chaotic footsteps outside the door. Bullets shot blindly into the cellar, hitting the brick walls and the ground, sending out sparks, but they had lost their target.
Relying on the direction he remembered from before, Shen Guiling silently pounced towards the other side of the cellar like a ghost...

"waste!"
Shen Nian slammed the crystal glass filled with liquor onto the hard marble floor, causing it to shatter, with fragments and liquor splashing everywhere!
"A bunch of rubbish!" Shen Nian's forehead veins bulged as he fiercely grabbed the collar of one of his men, his face twisted into a more ferocious expression than a demon. "He must not have gotten far! Dig three feet into the ground to find him! If he doesn't die, you will die too!!!"
The previous manager seemed much calmer. "Boss, we have blocked all exits. He is definitely still in the courtyard. Don't worry..."
Before he finished speaking——
"Snapped!"
All the lights in the villa suddenly went out, and the view was instantly swallowed by the inky darkness. Only the sporadic emergency lights and moonlight from outside the window penetrated, outlining the vague and strange outlines of the furniture.
The dead silence spread like thick ink.
Then, the dead silence was completely broken!
"boom!"
"Bang bang bang-!"
Without warning, dense gunfire erupted from all directions! It was no longer the sporadic exchange of fire in the cellar. The gunfire was accompanied by terrified shouts, "Quick! He's heading towards the main hall!"
Shen Nian stood frozen in the darkness amidst the sounds of fierce gunfire, looking around with sinister eyes.
"Hahahahahaha!"
Suddenly, he clutched his stomach and burst into a near-insane laugh. "I was wondering why you were so resilient this time? Turns out... turns out you had the same idea as me!"
"Boss!" The steward quickly moved sideways to protect Shen Nian from behind. "It's too dangerous here! I'll take you to a safe place first!"
"Get out of here!" Shen Nian pushed the manager away fiercely, pulled out the pistol from the holster on his waist, and loaded it with a "click".
"Come on!" He grinned and hissed provocatively at the thick, threatening darkness, "I want to see how you kill me today?!"

at the same time.
Gao Zhi was leaning leisurely on a tree branch, bathing in the bright moonlight, making the same old scissors hand gesture, and trying to find the best angle for the camera.
Suddenly, there was a burst of crackling noises coming from the villa 20 meters away - the noise was ten times more dense and louder than the sound of firecrackers a year ago when he encouraged the newbie to climb the wall!
"What is this? A fight?"
Gao Zhi put away his beauty camera, the cynicism on his face instantly disappeared, and he quickly raised the telescope hanging on his chest and looked towards the villa.
The villa, which had just been ablaze with lights and resembled a palace, was now completely plunged into a dead, pitch-black darkness. Under the thick night, dazzling flashes of gunfire and crackling sounds rang out everywhere.
"Tsk~ That's exciting."
Although he was speaking sarcastically, his actions were decisive. He quickly took out a special infrared camera from his backpack, mounted it steadily on a branch, adjusted the focus, and took several high-definition photos of the scene. He quickly sent them to Shen Lanxi with his fingers.
-[War correspondent Xiao Gao risks his life to send back frontline reports! Master, they're fighting!]
Just as he was thinking about whether to send another voice message to tease the serious rookie, a group of unusual infrared images were suddenly captured in the viewfinder of the high-powered camera.
Those people moved as swiftly as ghosts and were well-trained. They were encircling the enemy from the outside at an astonishing speed. Wherever they passed, the original defensive forces quickly collapsed as if being swallowed by an invisible giant mouth.
"This isn't right."
He muttered something under his breath, grabbed two submachine guns from the tree, threw them on his back, and jumped down lightly, landing steadily on the grass.
This group of people came with ill intentions. If something happened to Shen Guiling and Shen Nian, being scolded by the young master would be a small matter, but the huge bonus he had worked so hard to get would be completely ruined!
Absolutely not!

Corridor on the second floor of the villa.
The darkness after the power outage was so thick that it could not be dissolved. Only the sporadic moonlight and the green light of the emergency lights from the distant window could barely outline the vague contours of the expensive carpet and gorgeous columns.
The air was filled with gun smoke and a cold, dead silence.
Shen Guiling moved silently, clinging to the shadow of the wall like a gecko.
He knew Shen Nian's character. This villa was impregnable. With Shen Nian's arrogance, he would never hide away. He must be waiting for him to fall into the trap in some corner.
Just as he passed a half-open door, a hand suddenly stretched out from the shadow inside the door...
Shen Guiling's reaction was astonishingly fast. He almost instinctively lowered his body and twisted his wrist, smashing the butt of the gun in his hand backwards!
The opponent seemed not to have expected his counterattack to be so fierce and swift. His blocking arm was numbed by the shock and he let out a very light groan, but did not pursue him. Instead, he took advantage of the momentum to slide back a step and disappeared into the deeper darkness again.
Shen Guiling's eyes became fierce, and he rushed forward without hesitation, his fingertips like hooks, aiming straight for the other person's throat.
The black shadow blocked and dodged with clean and neat movements. It was obvious that he was a skilled fighter who had received rigorous training. However, strangely, he only defended and did not attack. He even repeatedly gave up good opportunities to counterattack and just kept trying to increase the distance.
After several quick and fierce clashes, Shen Guiling's attack became more and more ferocious. The opponent seemed to be forced into a corner and his back slammed into the wall behind him, making a muffled sound.
Just when Shen Guiling's fatal knife was about to cut the opponent's carotid artery——
"Shh!"
The opponent suddenly pulled out a cold white beam of light from her waist, but she did not shoot it towards Shen Guiling's eyes. Instead, she suddenly changed direction and shone it directly towards her own face!
"Your Highness, we are one of us."
"boom!"
Shen Guiling's movements didn't stop. He elbowed the opponent directly on the right cheek. "I remember you, the guy who injected me with two doses of aphrodisiac on Bai Zheng's bed."
An Ti fell to the ground, "..."
