When Qiang You's subordinates finally arrived, they were also shocked by the scene in front of them.

They quickly came over to Qiang You to help him up, but he waved his hand and got up himself. After dusting off the dirt on him, he immediately gave the order for them to scatter.

He didn't bother cleaning up the corpses since he knew that the Jiang Family would be sending their people to clean up soon.

After all, this was a huge disaster for them. With how many of the group leaders from their shadow squad had been killed, this had basically destroyed their shadow squad.

The shadow squad had been a very sharp tool for the Jiang Family and this loss would definitely hurt them.

There were many things that Qiang You had to prepare for now that this had happened.

But outside the city, someone was completely unaware of what had happened.

…

Lin Fan and Brainy worked together to study the array, but there wasn't a single thing that they could figure out.

Even with Brainy's intelligence, it just couldn't decode the array at all.

The patterns drawn on the kids seemed to connect, but once Brainy reached the pattern on the third child, it was like the array lines suddenly changed. It was like there were two different arrays between them, but somehow they were working in tandem to create a stronger effect.

If this was a case of two different arrays coming together to form a single array, that would be much easier since there was at least some common aspect between these two arrays that allowed them to do so. However, if this was two different arrays that were working in tandem, but were still different arrays, that would become much harder since these two arrays would have nothing in common and that meant that Brainy would have to crack two different arrays.

But it didn't stop there since Brainy soon found another problem.

There was a third array, a fourth array, and a fifth array.

On each of two of these kids, a boy and girl pair, there was another different array.

And to make matters even worse, these arrays were clearly all different, but they were working in tandem. This meant that Brainy would have to crack five different arrays if it wanted to stop the draining of vitality from these kids.

Brainy was actually quite stubborn in this and didn't like giving up early, but that did make sense since even with how smart Brainy was, it was actually quite young still. In terms of human years, Brainy was actually even younger than Song Shu, even though it acted quite mature.

But before Brainy could dive head first into this, Lin Fan suddenly said, "Stop, there's no time for this."

Brainy looked up at Lin Fan with an unwilling look since it didn't want to give up that easily and it said, "Master, just a little more time. I can solve this if I just have a little bit more time."

Lin Fan shook his head and said, "No, there's more important things to do now and we don't have the time at this moment. We'll take care of it as soon as we take care of this base, alright?"

Brainy hesitated a bit as it looked at Lin Fan with an unwilling look, but finally it gave up after seeing Lin Fan's firm gaze.

Brainy was dejected as it slithered back into Lin Fan's sleeve.

But Brainy still told Lin Fan about everything it had learned from the scouts that had followed the other two subordinates in the guard uniform.

Just from the uniformed subordinates wandering the base, Brainy had basically figured out the layout of the base, as well as where most of the forces were distributed.

For this slave trade base, secrecy was one of the most important things, so the guards that worked here were only swapped out once a month. Most of the times, the guards slept in a special residential area that was inside this slave trade base. On the plus side, they did only have to work a month before getting the next month off, but that did mean they had to engage in this kind of disgusting trade.

But since it was also night time, most of the guards were currently resting in the residential area.

This was part of the arrogance of the Jiang Family, they never expected anyone to attack to base, much less find it, so they were quite slack with their guards during the night.

In the normal morning, they had full guard shifts, but at night, most of the guards went to rest and they operated with half the normal amount of guards.

This was a good thing for Lin Fan since all the guards were gathered in the same place.

They were all people that were involved in this slave trade, so Lin Fan had already condemned them to death.

So Lin Fan gathered his subordinates who he had left outside the room that Jiang Hei was in to watch over them and brought them all to the residential area.

During the time that Lin Fan was gone, there had been nothing useful that was said by Jiang Hei's group. The only thing to note was that they were slowly getting more and more drunk, which should make the following battle much easier.

They all moved to where the guards were residing and Lin Fan created a barrier with his spatial laws. The barrier of spatial laws completely locked in everything of the residential area, including all sound.

Just like that, Lin Fan's group went in and went on a rampage, slaughtering all the guards that were inside. Most of them were still asleep when they died, not even knowing how they died.

This was just the first step of Lin Fan's plan.

The second part was something that was much more troublesome.

…

Jiang Hei's group was still in the middle of their card game when a guard suddenly ran in.

Jiang Hei turned over to look at the guard and seeing how panicked he was, he immediately knit his brows to ask, "What's going on? Didn't I tell you not to disturb me unless it was an emergency?"

The guard was panting as he tried to speak, but he quickly caught his breath and said, "Fourth elder, this is a big problem, it's the biggest problem we've ever faced!"

Jiang Hei's brows knit even deeper as he said, "Well, spit it out then! Tell me what happened!"

The guard's face looked very ugly as he said, "I don't know how, but the slaves have escaped."

Jiang Hei and his followers all revealed shocked looks before Jiang Hei said, "Escaped, what do you mean escaped?"

The guard hesitated for a bit and when Jiang Hei saw this, he almost flew out of his chair as he roared, "Speak up now!"

The guard immediately gave a bow and said in a stuttering voice, "We...we don't know what happened, but...the slaves somehow managed to break out of their cages and kill the guards that were outside their cages. Now there's a large group of them being led by the high class product that's trying to escape."

Jiang Hei immediately said, "High class product? You mean the one that we captured for the Sikong Family?"

The guard immediately said, "Yes…"

The high class product was a very special slave that had been very hard for the Jiang Family to find.

This high class product was naturally a very powerful slave that the Sikong Family had specially requested. This high class product was actually a Gold Realm Expert of the bingo book that had been captured alive.

They were supposed to put the binding slave collar engraved with the obedience array on this slave tomorrow, but now it seemed to have come back to bite them in the butt.

Jiang Hei had been a bit tipsy, but the moment he heard about the high class product, that tipsy feeling completely disappeared.

Jiang Hei knit his brows in thought for a few seconds as everyone waited for his orders. After thinking for a bit, Jiang Hei said, "Tu, go and take care of that special product. I don't care what you have to do, but capture him alive. The Sikong Family is one of our biggest clients and we can't lose them now. As for the rest of you, go and round up the slaves immediately."

The "Tu" that Jiang Hei mentioned was the first follower who had been controlling the conversation the entire time.

Jiang Hei didn't have any problem leaving this mess to his followers because all his followers were Gold Realm Experts. It would be no problem for them to take care of this slave riot.

The only reason he wasn't going was that this all seemed like it was too coincidental. There must be someone planning all of this and if that were the case, it would be best for him to stay here if something else happened.

The followers all cupped their hands and bowed to Jiang Hei as they said, "Yes, fourth elder."

Then after that, all of them headed out with the guard who led them to where the slave riot was. All that was left in this room was Jiang Hei.

Now that this room was empty and silent, Jiang Hei sat down once again to think as he poured himself a cup of wine, but what he didn't notice was that there was actually someone else in the room with him.

When he did notice it, it was already too late.
