Thinking of this, Lu Yu's lips curled slightly, revealing a hint of a smile.

He looked at Qin Ge in front of him, smiled slightly, and said lightly, "I really appreciate Group Leader Qin's generous help. Although the weather isn't great today, the conversation with you is truly enjoyable. If there's nothing else, I should get to work now."

With that, Lu Yu nodded at Qin Ge, his tone calm, and slowly turned around, intending to leave.

This time, Qin Ge came to Victory Group specifically to find him, simply because he thought that under the dual pressure of the Shadow Martial Alliance and Paradise Island, Lu Yu would be forced to join the Shadow Sword Special Operations Team to ensure his own safety.

After all, when pressured by external forces, people tend to make certain changes, and even Lu Yu is no exception.

Now, even Lu Yu had to admit that Qin Ge was indeed very skilled in this aspect, with an appropriate understanding and control of information.

If Lu Yu were truly alone, under the dual pressure of Paradise Island and the Shadow Martial Alliance, he might indeed agree to Qin Ge's invitation to join the Shadow Sword Special Operations Team out of necessity.

After all, the saying "two fists can't fight four hands, a good tiger is hard to fend off a pack of wolves" is something Lu Yu understands!

But Qin Ge, despite all his calculations, ultimately did not account for the presence of the Assassin Alliance behind Lu Yu. If Qin Ge knew of the Assassin Alliance's existence behind Lu Yu, he certainly wouldn't have ventured to Lin'an City to persuade him to join the Shadow Sword Special Operations Team so recklessly.

"Mr. Lu, please wait."

Seeing Lu Yu about to leave, Qin Ge smiled slightly, slowly took out a black card with silver writing from the pocket of his Zhongshan suit, handed it to Lu Yu, and said, "This is my Shadow Sword Organization's action card. With this card, Mr. Lu can contact me at any time."

"If Mr. Lu ever needs help, feel free to use this card to find me, and our Shadow Sword Special Operations Team will do our utmost to assist Mr. Lu."

Hearing Qin Ge's words and looking at the card, Lu Yu couldn't help but smile.

This Qin Ge is worthy of being the leader of Shadow Sword, truly deep-minded. Giving him this card at this moment clearly shows goodwill.

If he accepted this card, it would indicate that being recruited by Shadow Sword was not an entirely impossible task, and there was room for maneuver.

If a matter has room for maneuver, it is full of infinite possibilities!

This Qin Ge really has foresight and cunning.

But even knowing Qin Ge's intentions, Lu Yu now had no thought of refusing. The events of the past were unpredictable, intricate relations as if they were a whirlpool, and no one could guarantee that things beyond one's ability wouldn't happen in the future.

Thus, having more options at this time is always a good thing!

Thinking of this, Lu Yu looked at the card in front of him, smiled slightly, then reached out to take the card, and said, "Thank you very much, Group Leader Qin. If needed, I will surely consult Group Leader Qin."

With that, Lu Yu glanced at the increasingly dense clouds in the sky and said to Qin Ge, "Group Leader Qin, see you again!"

With that sentence, Lu Yu turned directly, entered the elevator, and headed straight for the security department on the first floor...

"Leader, this guy is stubborn and wild, refusing our invitation repeatedly. Why do you still treat him like this?!"

Seeing Lu Yu turn and leave, a slightly older man in a black Zhongshan suit next to him said, "Moreover, that kid staying in Lin'an City is a complete security risk. Why not let me directly capture him and bring him back to the organization? I observed him in secret just now; although his strength is strong, he's not my match!"

The man's words were bold, giving a proud air, with threads of coldness flashing in his eyes, exuding a sense of oppression.

"Hahaha, enough."

Hearing the man's words, Qin Ge shook his head and then said, "I know your strength, Wang Zhenjiang, is higher than Lu Yu's. But Zhenjiang, have you ever thought, a wastrel from five years ago, transforming in five years to single-handedly kill Gu Yanzhou—have you ever seen anyone in the entire Shadow Sword improve faster than him?"

His words were low, giving a feeling of elusive nature.

"In five years, to grow from a wastrel who only knows how to eat, drink, and play, to become someone capable of killing Gu Yanzhou, such potential is not something ordinary people can match!"

As he spoke, Qin Ge folded his hands behind his back, slowly raised his head to look at the clouds gathering in the sky, his eyes flashing with brilliance, clearly pondering something.

"But leader, even if he has great potential, he's like a lone wolf who won't follow the organization's discipline. This is evident from his repeated refusals of our invitations."

Hearing Qin Ge's words, Wang Zhenjiang's tone was rather somber, giving a threatening feeling: "And behind him, there's a completely unknown organization to us before. Such a person brings too many variables. I don't think he's suitable to join Shadow Sword."

"Whether he's suitable or not needs to be tried first, and what we need to do now is continue to observe him, then find an opportunity to make him join Shadow Sword."

Hearing Wang Zhenjiang's words, Qin Ge spoke, his words full of contemplation, "Moreover, I now want to know what kind of organization is behind this guy. You know, in the world, to not fear the dual pressure of Paradise Island and the Shadow Martial Alliance, and for us to have no clue at all, such an organization—don't you find it terrifying?"

Shadow Sword's intelligence network is exceptionally extensive, rarely can any organization escape their coverage, yet the organization behind Lu Yu easily achieved this, making Qin Ge very concerned!

In his words, Qin Ge's eyes flashed with brilliance, giving a sense of profound contemplation, as he too wanted to know now what kind of organization was behind Lu Yu.

Thinking of this, Qin Ge turned slightly, looked at Luo Lie beside him, and said, "Luo Lie, stay in Lin'an City and continue to observe Lu Yu's every move. Report immediately if there's anything unusual!"

"Yes, Leader!"

Hearing Qin Ge's words, Luo Lie replied, his face full of firm determination.

"Phew!"

Hearing Luo Lie's response, Qin Ge exhaled a long breath, patting Wang Zhenjiang's shoulder and said, "Zhenjiang, just watch. I'll show you with actions that investing such energy in Lu Yu is completely worthwhile!"

In his words, Qin Ge's eyes raised, looking at the distant sky filled with dark clouds and flashing purple lightning, a profound hue showing on his deep face.
