Chapter 99

100. Chapter 100: A Sudden Ambush

The vehicle drove rapidly.

Wang Jian, who was driving, was currently concentrating on receiving the latest news from the Investigation Bureau, understanding the latest movements of the murderer Huang Xin.

According to the message prompt.

Now Huang Xin had already snatched a car and driven wildly into the Waste City District. After arriving at the Waste City District, the murderer Huang Xin directly abandoned the vehicle, chose to proceed on foot, and plunged into the Waste City District.

"Damn, this is troublesome." Wang Jian couldn't help but curse.

Chen Hao asked: "What's wrong?"

Wang Jian said: "The other party abandoned the vehicle and chose to proceed on foot. Now he is hiding in this area, but I don't know his specific location. There are only three of us out this time, and it's very difficult to find a Spirit Medium Realm cultivator in the Waste City District. All I can do now is rush to the location where he abandoned the car in the shortest time and then search."

"If we're lucky, we can find him. If not, this mission will have to be abandoned."

"This is also something that can't be helped. The Waste City District connects to the Danger Zone, and no one is willing to take the risk to search that area." Chen Hao said.

"Sit tight, I'm accelerating." Wang Jian also understood this principle and could only try it.

The vehicle accelerated, trying to reach the murderer Huang Xin's abandoned car point in the shortest time.

But just at this moment, Li Yi's phone suddenly rang. He took a look, and it was actually a call from Lin Jie.

"Excuse me, I'll take a call." He said, and connected the call.

On the other side of the phone, Lin Yue's voice was somewhat urgent: "Li Yi, where are you now? Are you in the Waste City District?"

"Lin Jie, how did you know?" Li Yi said with some surprise. It stood to reason that Lin Jie shouldn't have known the news of his mission.

"Li Yi, listen to me. Leave the Waste City District immediately. I received information that Qin Qing just sent me. She said that someone on Yang Yi Long's side has ideas about you recently and wants to find someone to finish you off. I'm worried that the other party might have already acted. They want to create a fake case to lure you to the Waste City District. Come back immediately; I'm driving to you..." Lin Yue said anxiously.

"What?" Li Yi was shocked.

But before he had time to ask for more news, suddenly, the car driving at high speed jolted violently. He didn't know if it was a flat tire or what, but the vehicle instantly lost control and crashed toward the side of the road.

"Careful, the car is going to flip." Wang Jian shouted at this moment.

The vehicle rolled, roared, and finally crashed into a ruin on the side of the road before barely coming to a stop.

But soon.

The doors and windows were shattered, and Li Yi, Wang Jian, and Chen Hao quickly crawled out of the carriage.

"How is it? Is everyone okay?" Wang Jian said immediately.

"I'm fine." Li Yi took a deep breath, his mind still thinking about the call Lin Jie had just given him.

Chen Hao said immediately: "Steel cables were placed on the road. Our car was intentionally intercepted."

Afterward, he saw a thin, imperceptible steel rope lying across the road, and it was this steel rope that caused the vehicle to flip.

Wang Jian realized something and said immediately: "Go, don't stay here. Mission abandoned, we're returning to the Investigation Bureau."

He had just moved his feet.

Figures walked out from the abandoned buildings nearby.

"Wang Jian, don't be in such a hurry to leave. We met not long ago; don't you want to gather with old friends?"

A low voice sounded. A man in a black trench coat jumped lightly and stood on a ruin. He looked cold and stared at Wang Jian, Chen Hao, and Li Yi, as if he were treating the three of them as prey.

"It's Wei Bin's subordinate. I recognize you; you're called Daozi, right?" Wang Jian frowned: "What, you suffered a defeat last time, and this time you're not convinced and want to take revenge?"

"Wang Jian, originally I didn't intend to attack you this time. Who told you to be unlucky and get on this car? To ensure the news doesn't leak, I have to reluctantly solve you together." Daozi's mouth twitched with a smile, and then he glanced to the side: "Stop hiding. This time it's killing an investigator. If you Yang family don't show your face, do you really intend to let me take all the blame?"

"There's someone else?" Wang Jian's expression changed instantly.

The next moment.

Behind an abandoned building on the side, a tall, middle-aged man in a suit walked out with a sullen face: "I only told you to kill Li Yi alone, not to kill Wang Jian as well."

"Are you a pig? Kill Li Yi, let Wang Jian go—isn't that clearly delivering the evidence of murder to the Investigation Bureau? Either don't act, or finish them off together, leaving no evidence. The Investigation Bureau can't do anything to you or me. This is the Waste City District; there's no surveillance, no support. If you don't even dare to do this, I advise you not to engage in the business of hiring killers. It's shameful." Daozi's words were very unpleasant and not polite at all.

"You are... someone by Yang Yi Long's side?" Li Yi stared firmly at the middle-aged man in the suit at this moment.

He had seen this person at Yang Yi Long's residence before and had some impression.

Yang Ye looked at Li Yi and sneered: "I advised Yi Long before that we should have kept you after getting the fist technique, and then killed you to silence you after thoroughly learning it. He insisted on talking about some morality and let you go. Now you've become a hidden danger. You kid not only destroyed our Yang family's opportunity to obtain a Mystic Object but also possess a cultivation value of 420%."

"You are a potential danger. Yi Long thinks highly of himself and doesn't think you will be a threat, but I don't think so. Give you kid some time, and in the future, you might really turn things upside down. Rather than that, it's better to strike first, and while you haven't grown up yet, finish you off to save trouble later."

"So that's it." Li Yi couldn't help but clench his fists: "You Yangs are truly ruthless."

"No choice. I didn't want to go to this step either. Who told you that when we forcibly took your fist technique, we had already formed a grudge? You don't have to say it for me to know that you must have resentment in your heart, it's just that at the time, hindered by insufficient strength, you chose to swallow your anger. I've seen too many people like you; once you gain power, you will definitely retaliate."

Yang Ye untied his tie and took off his suit, revealing his strong upper body, clearly preparing to act.

Hearing this, Li Yi couldn't help but laugh in anger: "You want my fist technique, does that mean I should respectfully give it to you for free? And not be allowed to have any resentment? What do you think you are, an emperor? Don't be too self-righteous. Putting on a suit, you look like a businessman, but taking off your clothes, you're just a bully and a bandit."

"Big fish eat small fish; this society has always been like this." Yang Ye sneered: "It's good that you showed your face this time. After killing you, I can also take off the clothes on your body, wash them clean later, and return them to Yi Long."

"Try it if you can." Li Yi's killing intent boiled in his eyes, and anger burned in his heart.

Wang Jian's expression was solemn: "Yang Ye, does Yang Yi Long know that you are colluding with Daozi and these people to attack us? I want to make a call to Yang Yi Long. If this matter is a misunderstanding, I can pretend nothing happened."

"Wang Jian, at this point, does saying these things have any meaning? It wasn't easy to lure you to the Waste City District. Yang Ye, you deal with this guy; I'll help you kill Li Yi. Act fast, so as not to have long nights and many dreams." Daozi, on the side, spoke.

"Want to let Investigator Wang Jian die at my hands personally?" Yang Ye's gaze shifted: "Fine, it's come to this, it doesn't matter who kills him."

The two confirmed their respective targets immediately.

Seeing this situation.

Wang Jian also understood that there was no possibility of any easing of this matter. Regardless of whether Yang Yi Long knew about this, as long as Yang Ye acted, the Yang family couldn't escape the connection.

"Whether it's Yang Ye or Daozi, they are both Inspiration Realm cultivators. We are not their opponents in a head-on confrontation, not to mention they brought a full ten Spirit Medium Realm helpers. The only way now is to find an opportunity to disperse and escape, don't hesitate..."

"I'm very sorry, I implicated you in this matter." Li Yi lowered his head slightly.

Wang Jian shook his head: "No, I already had a grudge with that Daozi. He clearly wanted to kill two birds with one stone this time. It's Chen Hao who was truly innocently implicated. Besides, I already sent a distress signal, but I don't know if we can hold out until help arrives."

"Since I chose to become an external combatant, I was long prepared to face danger." Chen Hao's expression was solemn and he wasn't afraid: "Li Yi, don't blame yourself. If you hadn't stepped in to save me last time, I wouldn't have lived until today. This time, just treat it as everyone being even. If we can survive this time, I will still choose this job."

The conversation between the few was very brief.

Because Daozi and Yang Ye didn't want to give them too much time to survive.

"Act." Daozi's low voice sounded, and then he rushed out first, like a vicious tiger, heading straight for Li Yi.

"Be careful, this Li Yi knows fist techniques. After I finish off Wang Jian, I'll come over to support you immediately." Yang Ye, worried that things might change, deliberately reminded him.

"Understood."

Daozi just responded simply.

Seeing this, Yang Ye didn't say anything more and rushed toward Wang Jian immediately.

The remaining Spirit Medium Realm wanderers blocked, besieged, and obstructed their escape.

Such planned cooperation caused the hearts of the three people who had originally thought about rushing out to sink to the bottom instantly.
