Chapter 67 - 67 Prey
Chapter 67: Chapter 67 Prey
Yu Ling’s scream made Yu Tianqi’s footsteps falter.
He turned his head to look and saw Xiaochen right beside him with a sly smile on his lips, staring face-to-face with Yu Ling.
Seeing this scene, Yu Tianqi felt a shock of alarm.
At this distance, if Xiaochen made a move.
Neither he nor Yu Ling could dodge.
Yu Tianqi gritted his teeth, turned around fiercely, and kicked at Xiaochen while simultaneously throwing Yu Ling behind him with both hands.
“Yu Ling, run!”
“Brother, hold her back!”
Yu Tianqi shouted and drew his dagger.
The chilling dagger thrust at Xiaochen.
It struck home!
But there was no blood!
Xiaochen’s figure just vanished into thin air before his eyes.
Yu Tianqi was startled and scanned the surroundings with wide eyes.
A glimpse of fabric flitted through the corner of his eye.
Yu Tianqi was shocked and thrust with his knife!
Hit!
But…
It truly hit.
Xiaochen disappeared once again before Yu Tianqi’s eyes.
The next second, Yu Ling’s scream tore through the stillness of the night.
Yu Tianqi was horrified and looked toward Yu Ling.
Xiaochen was squatting right in front of her.
“Bastard, don’t touch my sister!”
Yu Tianqi yelled, charging at Xiaochen with his knife raised.
By then, Yu Ling had already fainted from fright.
Xiaochen’s head twisted 180º to look at Yu Tianqi, his mouth lifting in a sinister smile.
“Damn it!”
Seeing this, Yu Tianqi’s heartbeat skipped a half beat.
“Brother Tianqi, come play with me~”
Xiaochen said with a teasing smile.
“I’ll play with your freaking uncle!”
Yu Tianqi roared and drove the knife into Xiaochen’s abdomen.
Xiaochen’s body shattered like glass.
Once again vanishing from Yu Tianqi’s eyes.
Yu Tianqi’s scalp tingled, and his hand holding the dagger trembled.
The next second…
A severe pain struck the back of Yu Tianqi’s head.
Yu Tianqi’s eyes rolled back, and he fainted.
Before losing consciousness, Yu Tianqi saw another himself approaching step by step.
“Damn it…”
“This is really seeing a ghost…”
Yu Tianqi murmured.
Then, everything went dark before his eyes…
And he lost consciousness.
“This is no fun!”
A complaint was heard.
Xiaochen walked out from behind a tree.
“Don’t overdo it,”
the other “Yu Tianqi” said coldly.
“Alright alright, I know I was wrong,”
Xiaochen stuck out her tongue and laughed.
“Take them back,”
“Yu Tianqi” said indifferently.
Xiaochen nodded and whistled.
Figures moved in the woods, and three masked men emerged.
“Take the prey back!”
Xiaochen ordered, pointing at the fallen Yu Family siblings.
“Yes!”
The three masked men acknowledged and approached the Yu Family siblings.
“Let’s go, to the gathering,”
“Yu Tianqi” declared in a deep voice.
“Sure thing, Brother Tianqi~”
Xiaochen said coyly, clinging to “Yu Tianqi’s” hand.
The two of them shouldered the Yu Family siblings’ backpacks and slipped into the woods, quickly disappearing into the night.
The three masked men hoisted the Yu Family siblings on their shoulders and turned to walk back the way they had come.
“Whoosh!”
A figure flashed by!
The three masked men were startled and stopped in their tracks.
“Is there another team here?”
One of the masked men asked in confusion.
“Shouldn’t be…”
“This is supposed to be our hunting ground!”
Another masked man spoke in a deep voice.
“Be careful, it might be another squad’s prey that has strayed onto our turf,”
the first masked man said in a somber tone.
“Congratulations, you got it right,”
“Sadly…”
“there are no rewards~”
A voice suddenly interrupted.
The two masked men were startled and turned their heads at the same time.
“Snap!”
An arc of electricity flashed past as the electric stick jabbed a masked man’s neck.
The masked man’s body trembled as he convulsed and fell to the ground.
The masked man who had been following the two pulled back his electric stick and turned to the other masked man.
“What the hell are you doing!”
the other masked man rebuked.
“Me?”
“Of course, I’m saving someone~”
the man with the electric stick replied with a laugh.
“Bastard!”
The masked man shouted, drawing his gun and pointing it at the man with the electric stick.
“You dare betray the organization, then go to hell!”
the masked man said with a sneer.
“Sorry, you’re the one who’s going to die!”
Just then, a chilly voice came from behind the masked man.
The masked man was taken aback and turned to look behind him.
The next second, a flash of cold light appeared.
A red line emerged on the neck of the masked man.
“Uh uh…”
The masked man opened his mouth but couldn’t utter a word.
The man with the electric stick kicked the masked man from behind, and as he fell to the ground with a thud, his body twitched a few times before he lost his breath.
“Sister Helan, you’re so cool!”
the man with the electric stick said cheerily.
“Take the Yu Family siblings, and let’s look for the others.”
Helan Xiaoyue said coldly.
“Roger that~”
the electric stick man chirped in response.
He stashed away the electric stick, picked up Yu Tianqi and Yu Ling with one hand each, and slung them over his shoulders.
Helan Xiaoyue glanced at the man with the electric stick, wiped the blood off her dagger, and turned to leave.
Carrying Yu Tianqi and Yu Ling, the man with the electric stick walked briskly, unimpeded by the weight, maintaining his speed with ease.
Helan Xiaoyue moved through the forest with feathery steps, swift as a wildcat, unfazed by the muddy path beneath her feet.
Although the footsteps of the man carrying the siblings were heavy, he kept up with Helan Xiaoyue’s pace without difficulty, even with the extra burden.
Suddenly, Helan Xiaoyue paused her stride.
The electric stick man halted instantly.
“Sister Helan, what’s wrong?”
he asked in confusion.
“Shh~”
“There’s someone!”
Helan Xiaoyue whispered.
“An enemy?” @@novelbin@@
the electric stick man asked, his eyes twinkling with excitement.
“Not sure!”
Helan Xiaoyue replied indifferently.
Helan Xiaoyue slowly crouched down, her almond eyes intently fixed ahead.
Seeing this, the man with the electric stick placed Yu Tianqi and Yu Ling on the ground and drew his electric stick, a thrilled smile spreading across his face.
“Enemy!”
After a long while, Helan Xiaoyue withdrew her gaze and said flatly.
“Heh~”
“Leave it to me!”
Upon hearing this, the electric stick man grinned mischievously and charged out like a wild beast, his figure swiftly pouncing towards the dimness ahead.
Shortly after, flickers of electric light and cries of pain echoed in the dimness.
“Ah da~”
The excited shouts of the electric stick man could faintly be heard.
Helan Xiaoyue shook her head helplessly.
“Why did I bring him along on a whim?”
she sighed.
“Rustle rustle rustle~”
Footsteps sounded.
Helan Xiaoyue drew her dagger in a flash, vigilantly staring in the direction of the footsteps.
This was a strange set of footsteps.
Not those of the electric stick man!
Helan Xiaoyue darted a glance at the unconscious Yu Tianqi and Yu Ling, then in the blink of an eye, she sprang up into a nearby tree.
Perched on a branch, Helan Xiaoyue held a dagger in each hand, her eyes sharply focusing on the direction of the approaching sounds.
Closer!
Helan Xiaoyue could barely discern the silhouette of the approaching person.
What do you think?
