Yang Jian whispered a few words into Wang Dadong’s ear.

Wang Dadong’s expression immediately changed.

A few minutes later, Wang Dadong left the Jinding Building and appeared in the private room of a Starbucks.

Sitting inside the private room was someone Wang Dadong thought he would never see again in his lifetime.

She was still wearing a light blue long dress, with hair cascading like a waterfall and a ponytail horizontally across her forehead.

Exactly the same as when Wang Dadong saw her last time.

An Yu.

The woman known as the "Underworld Queen."

A former Dragon Group Warrior, now a member of Dark Night Eternal Sorrow.

"What does Miss An want from me?" Wang Dadong asked bluntly.

They had parted ways that day, and he thought they would never have the chance to meet again, but unexpectedly, An Yu had sought him out.

"I do have something very important to ask of you." An Yu didn’t beat around the bush either.

Wang Dadong nodded and asked, "So, in what capacity are you seeking me out? As a former Dragon Group Warrior, or as a member of Dark Night Eternal Sorrow?"

"Neither." An Yu shook her head.

Wang Dadong was taken aback, "Then what is it?"

"As a friend, or rather a former comrade." An Yu said.

In the Mother Empress Gu incident, the two had fought together, so calling them comrades was indeed correct.

But whether they were friends, that was debatable.

After all, although Wang Dadong had decided to be on friendly terms with Dark Night Eternal Sorrow, the matters of the Dark World were unpredictable.

"What do you need me to do?" Wang Dadong pondered for a moment and asked.

If it was within his capabilities, he should help An Yu.

An Yu’s expression changed several times before she finally said softly, "I want you to help me rescue someone."

Wang Dadong frowned slightly and said, "If it’s about rescuing someone, shouldn’t Dark Night Eternal Sorrow be more skilled at that?"

An Yu shook her head, "No, Dark Night Eternal Sorrow cannot be involved."

"Who do you want me to rescue?"

"Hao Wentao." An Yu gritted her teeth and said.

"Hao Wentao?" Wang Dadong’s expression changed dramatically. Could it be that something happened to Hao Wentao?

He realized it had indeed been a long time since he last saw Hao Wentao.

He remembered that Hao Wentao was personally involved in the undercover mission with the drug cartel on the border, and there was also a member of the Blue Enchantress in the cartel.

At that time, he had warned Hao Wentao that the mission was too dangerous and advised him to abandon it, but Hao Wentao insisted on completing the mission, and now, as expected, something went wrong.

An Yu looked somewhat sorrowful and said, "Hao Wentao was discovered while undercover in a drug cartel, and now he is imprisoned by them, as they try to extract information from him. You know his character, he would never betray the Dragon Group, so I’m worried he’s in danger."

"How did you find out about this?" Wang Dadong was a bit puzzled. This kind of information should have been relayed to him by the Dragon Group, yet it was An Yu who informed him.

"Because within that drug cartel, our Dark Night Eternal Sorrow also has an undercover agent. But she’s been lucky and hasn’t been discovered yet." An Yu said.

This was already highly confidential information, and An Yu telling Wang Dadong was a substantial risk to the undercover Dark Night Eternal Sorrow member.

This was enough to show An Yu’s sincerity in asking for Wang Dadong’s help.

However, knowing about Hao Wentao’s situation, Wang Dadong couldn’t just sit idly by.

Moreover, it involved a member of the Blue Enchantress, and he would not stand by and watch, as this might be an opportunity to destroy a Blue Enchantress stronghold.

"Tell me the information you have." Wang Dadong said seriously.

"Hmm, the intelligence Dark Night Eternal Sorrow has is extremely limited. That undercover agent has a low status and couldn’t gather more information; she doesn’t even know where Hao Wentao is being held. All she knows is one of their branches..." An Yu marked the primary activity area of the drug cartel on a map.

"Does the Dragon Group not know about this yet?" Wang Dadong roughly understood the situation.

"Right, that’s why I wanted to ask for your help. This matter absolutely cannot let the Dragon Group know because once they are aware, Heavenly Dragon will certainly take action, either to rescue... or..." An Yu didn’t finish her sentence, but Wang Dadong already knew what she meant.

Although every Dragon Group Warrior undergoes special training, that doesn’t guarantee they can withstand any torture.

Nowadays, there are countless interrogation methods worldwide, and no one can ensure they won’t spill secrets.

So upon discovering a Dragon Group branch commander was captured, the Imperial Capital Dragon Group Headquarters would immediately take action.

Either rescue Hao Wentao, or eliminate Hao Wentao.

Piao Xue was an example back then.

So An Yu didn’t want the Dragon Group to know about this matter.

However, since Hao Wentao was imprisoned, the Dragon Group would eventually get the news, so he must rescue Hao Wentao before that happens.

Besides Wang Dadong, An Yu really couldn’t think of anyone else with that kind of capability.

What’s more, being an undercover in a drug cartel is extremely dangerous. Ordinary people wouldn’t take such a risk.

Wang Dadong naturally understood An Yu’s concerns and nodded, "Don’t worry, I know what to do."

"Also, I hope that without absolute certainty, you won’t take any reckless actions. Those people are ruthless thugs, and I’m afraid they might harm Hao Wentao..." An Yu said through gritted teeth.

"Hmm." Wang Dadong nodded in agreement.

Even if An Yu hadn’t said anything, he already knew what needed to be done to ensure Hao Wentao’s safety to the greatest extent.

However, the situation wasn’t looking good. First, the location where Hao Wentao is being held is unknown, so he has to find it himself, and during the search, Hao Wentao might be in danger.

Secondly, even if he finds Hao Wentao, it might not be easy to rescue him.

Because Hao Wentao may be held in the drug cartel’s stronghold.

A place that would undoubtedly have many experts sitting around, possibly even equipped with heavy weapons. Even if he is at Hidden World High-level, he cannot disregard the threat of such weapons.

Nonetheless, no matter how difficult or dangerous, he has to rescue Hao Wentao.

Hao Wentao is an extremely outstanding warrior, and his death would be a great loss for the country.

Moreover, if he does nothing, once Long Qiuyu and Piao Xue find out, they probably won’t associate with him anymore.

Besides, they do have some connection.

"Then I’ll leave it to you, here’s my token. If you meet that Dark Night Eternal Sorrow member over there, upon seeing this token, they will help you." An Yu tied a red string with a knot around Wang Dadong’s wrist.

After explaining everything, An Yu left. After all, being a member of Dark Night Eternal Sorrow meant meeting with Wang Dadong was already a huge risk.

"By the way, if possible, please also try to ensure her safety." As she was about to leave the door, An Yu turned back and urged.
