Cultivation Online

Chapter 491 Midnight Invasion

"Hey, what the hell is taking so long? We’re already past our deadline." Mister Johnson called the four cultivators on their fourth day on the job.

"Calm down, Johnson. We’ll get the job done by tomorrow. It took longer than expected just knocking on the doors. That bitch Meixiu is definitely avoiding us on purpose. Maybe she is somehow aware that we’re looking for her."

"What? How is that possible? Unless someone warned her about us, it’s impossible that she’s aware of our operation," said Mister Johnson.

"She probably can’t hear your knocking because she’s playing Cultivation Online."

"If that’s the case, it’ll make things even more convenient and a breeze when we take her."

"Whatever. Just get it done by tomorrow or your check will see some deductions." Mister Johnson said.

"What! Not our pay!"

"Then hurry up and get the job done before the Yu Family complains even more!" Mister Johnson yelled at them before closing the line.

"You heard him. We better finish tomorrow or our salary will suffer."

"If that’s the case, why don’t we do it tonight? It’ll be much easier to kidnap someone at night."

"You’re right... Let’s just finish it tonight."

Once everyone agreed on finishing the job tonight, they went to prepare for it.

A few hours later when the sky had turned pitch black, the four cultivators returned to the apartment with a lockpicking kit and started breaking into the rooms that didn’t answer them for the past four days, starting with the room on the 7th floor.

Click.

Once they unlocked the door, they silently made their way into the room and began looking around.

Inside the apartment, they could see two people laying on their beds with the Cultivation Online gaming console on their heads.

Seeing this, they approached them to take a look at their faces.

Once they confirmed that neither of them was Meixiu, they silently left the place, leaving the two people completely unaware that they’d just experienced a breaking and entering.

Next was the 9th floor, and just like the previous apartment, everyone living inside was fully immersed within Cultivation Online, completely unaware that they had four intruders inside their home right now.

After leaving the 9th floor, they made their way to the 17th floor and immediately began working on the door that was closest to the elevator.

Luckily for Yuan and Meixiu, their door was the furthest away from the elevator.

Inside the first room on the 17th floor, they could see a family of four currently sleeping.

The moment the cultivators saw four people, they turned around and left the room, as they were only expecting two people at most.

Once they left that room, they began working on the second door on the 17th floor.

"..."

Meixiu, who had been cultivating in her room, suddenly opened her eyes when she could hear subtle noises coming from the door.

’They’re breaking in?’ Meixiu quickly realized what was going on and immediately stopped cultivating.

She then took a deep breath and silently left her room to wait for them to enter their house without notifying Yuan about the invasion, as there was a good chance that they’d break into their home before she could warn him, and it would be smarter to keep the noises to a minimum.

Click.

The lock to their door suddenly became unlocked, and the door slowly began opening the next moment.

Meixiu could see a shadowy figure enter the house a few seconds later.

However, before he could take two steps inside their peaceful sanctuary, Meixiu, who had been hiding right beside the door suddenly threw a quick but powerful jab at the unsuspecting invader’s lower jaw.

Crack.

The sound of bones cracking resounded, startling the other three.

They quickly realized what was going on when the man that entered the room first suddenly fell onto the floor with his neck bent in a weird way.

"Shit! Scorpion is down!"

"I-Is he even still alive?!"

The other three immediately got into position and prepared themselves.

"Show yourself, Meixiu! We’re here to bring you back to the Yu Family! Let’s not make things difficult!" One of them said to her from outside their home.

Meixiu appeared before them a moment later with the moonlight shining on her beautiful figure, and on her face was a cold expression that complimented the atmosphere quite well.

"I won’t go back to the Yu Family. If you want me to go back, you’ll have to force me."

"We don’t want to hurt you! If you agree to follow us quietly, we will promise to leave that cripple inside alone!"

Meixiu frowned when they pulled Yuan into the topic, even threatening her with him.

"You may have taken out one of us by surprise, but now that you’ve lost your advantage, you won’t be able to take on the three of us by yourself! All of us have over ten years of experience in the military while you’re just some little girl with slightly higher cultivation than us! Give up and you won’t get hurt!"

"I don’t like to repeat myself. If you want me to return to the Yu Family, you will have to force me." Meixiu said.

"Then don’t blame us if you get hurt! Get her!"

The man in the front immediately stepped forward to try and grab Meixiu while the other two followed behind, but since the door only had enough room for one person to enter at a time, Meixiu didn’t have to worry about fighting all three at once.

She casually took a step back, forcing them to enter the door one by one.

Once the first person entered the apartment, Meixiu immediately propelled herself forward so that the person could not move forward, blocking the other two from entering.

"You’re overestimating yourself!" The man went to grab Meixiu again, even utilizing a grappling technique he’d learned from the military.

However, to the man’s surprise, Meixiu avoided his grappling technique perfectly, almost as though she knew about the technique and its flaws.

"What?!"

Before the man could react, Meixiu suddenly extended her arm and grabbed the man’s neck with a claw-like hand.

The man’s eyes widened with surprise, but he subconsciously reacted and used both his arm to grab Meixiu’s slender arm to try and pull it away.

However, he quickly realized that even with two hands, he was unable to remove Meixiu’s arm that was clutching onto his neck, almost like it was made of steel and permanently attached to his neck.

"W-Wait... L-Let’s talk—"

A cracking noise resounded midway through the man’s sentence, silencing him.

The man’s body immediately limped afterward.

"Y-You killed him?" The remaining two invaders were in disbelief when they saw Meixiu’s merciless action. How could someone so beautiful and seemingly so innocent take another life so casually?

Meixiu released her clutch on the man’s neck, dropping his body on the floor.

"So what if I killed him? It’s self-defense." Meixiu then spoke in a cold voice that sent chills down their spine.

"Y-You’re fucking crazy! You won’t get away with murder even if you use self-defense to justify it! And you killed two people!"

"And there will be two more corpses if you don’t leave us alone," Meixiu said.

"F-Fuck! I am outta here! I am not getting paid enough to risk my life with this psycho!" One of them suddenly turned around and ran towards the emergency staircase, not even bothering to take the elevator.

Seeing his comrade leave, the remaining person there also decided to leave, as there was no chance that he was going to fight Meixiu alone.

"You better enjoy your last moments here since you’ll be going behind bars soon!" The man said to her before disappearing from the scene.

Once the invaders left, Meixiu released a sigh of relief.

She then retrieved her phone and dialed a number.

A moment later, Meifeng’s voice resounded, "What happened?"

"They broke into our apartment," said Meixiu.

"..."

After a moment of silence, Meifeng finally responded, "Since you are able to call me, I will assume that you’ve taken care of it."

"Yes, I took care of it... But I might have gone a little overboard," she said.

"You killed them?" Meifeng asked in a solemn voice.

"No... I held back my strength as much as possible, but they will definitely die if they don’t receive any medical care soon."

"Haaaaa..." Meifeng sighed out loud.

Then she said, "Call the police. I will be there soon."

"Okay."

Meixiu then hung up and called the cops to explain the situation to them.
