The opponent's continuous actions made Luo Zheng feel immense pressure enveloping him, first with the sniper assassination and then the kidnapping of Lan Xing. Luo Zheng could sense that the sniper assassination was a warning, a threat, and a display of prowess, to make him cautious, while the kidnapping served as leverage. Without the sniper assassination, Luo Zheng would have certainly retaliated with full force, but after witnessing the opponent's formidable tactics, Luo Zheng had to exercise caution, reassuring Lan Xue to endure temporarily.
Lan Xue also understood the opponent's power; acting recklessly would be counterproductive, placing Lan Xing in extreme danger. Despite the unreliability of the opponent's words, they had to wait. With a cold expression, she said, "These bastards got hold of a sniper rifle; they are definitely not ordinary assassins or mercenaries. What are you planning to do?"
