Chapter 1040

Wilder smiled, which was completely different from his usual serious appearance, which made Chen Ang a bit awkward, but he finally stopped pushing.

At the signing scene, Chen Ang didn't enter. There were quite a few people waiting outside with him. Chen Ang observed carefully. From these attendants, the person signing with Wilder should indeed be not simple, because even he couldn't see through the true strength of those people. It was estimated that they were all super strong.

It was just that he had absolute certainty that these people would definitely not be stronger than him.

So his expression was also quite calm, and those people were also looking at him. The exploration in their eyes was more obvious than his just now. To this, Chen Ang just ignored it, but those people were so curious that they simply tried to test him directly.

Since the other party had already sent it to the door, Chen Ang naturally wouldn't refuse, just sacrificed his Dragon Claw, and those people showed surprised faces, and showed respectful eyes toward Chen Ang.

After all, for these strong people, they could feel the slight gap very clearly, and from the coercion revealed by Chen Ang, they could naturally know that Chen Ang's strength was definitely above them.

For a master who was stronger than himself, they naturally admired and even wanted to make friends with each other.

"With your strength, why follow Wilder? Why don't we recommend you? If you come to us, our master will definitely welcome your arrival."

"No need, it's my own freedom to like where I stay, and I don't have much relationship with Wilder. You don't have to bother."

Chen Ang refused to admit that he was working under Wilder.

Hearing this, they breathed a sigh of relief. However, since Wilder could invite Chen Ang, it meant that there must be some relationship between him and Chen Ang. Since that was the case, they naturally needed to curry favor with this person.

The two were about to say something else, but the two inside had already walked out with laughter. Seeing their respective leaders, several people returned to their positions immediately.

Seeing the contract in the other party's hand, Chen Ang knew that things were done, and his heart breathed a sigh of relief. That meant he should be able to go back soon. It was estimated that Qing Mei was also angry because of this. He didn't know how to coax her back when he went back.

"Distracted? I found that you really like to be distracted. But it doesn't matter. You are with me, you can be distracted as you like. After all, it's all thanks to your help that this matter can be frank." Wilder waved his hand at Chen Ang, and at this moment, the other party's people had already left cleanly.

"It's all because I promised Virgil. How about it, can we go back now?" Chen Ang didn't think much, and asked his true thoughts directly.

To this, Wilder's expression became solemn.

"In theory, it's true, but in fact, I have something I want to ask you for help. You should know why I was locked in that forest this time, right? No matter what, I must retaliate, and I have already thought of the method, which is to throw him into that place directly."

He said, looking at Chen Ang with expectation.

Clearly, he wanted to hand over the task of catching people to him.

"Aren't you worried that if the other party is lucky enough to come out, he will come to trouble you again?" Chen Ang was a bit curious.

"He should have considered this long ago." Wilder didn't feel any impropriety at all.

"With this contract, I can completely crush him. Not directly attacking him can be considered giving him face. So if he can really escape, I will be a bit surprised."

After all, they were their own people, so Wilder didn't hide anything from Chen Ang, and said his thoughts directly.

"I heard what you said to those people just now. Since you denied the

"Then it's a deal."

Chen Ang agreed immediately, and his reason for agreeing was quite simple: it was because the other party had said he could set any conditions he wanted.

He did indeed want to propose some conditions, such as having Vilde teach him how to manage a family.

As for other conditions, he would certainly not go easy on him.

"Give me the relevant information on that person, and then, three days—just three days—I guarantee I will throw him into that place and make it impossible for him to ever escape."

As for why he was so confident, the reason was even simpler: as long as he used a pair of handcuffs to lock him inside forever, he would be forced to keep company with those mist-people for eternity. He believed this guy absolutely lacked the strength to escape from the woods.

The information on the other party was very easy to work with; after all, as a rival, Vilde knew the other party very well.

"Li Yi—that name is simple enough, but I didn't expect this person to be so ruthless in his actions, and to have made moves against you so many times. Why did you only think of dealing with him now?"

Chen Ang clicked his tongue repeatedly, truly admiring Vilde's patience.

"Isn't it because he hadn't succeeded before? But this time, he must have burned his bridges; his self-protection must be at its peak recently, so it shouldn't be that easy for you to succeed either."

Vilde spoke of what he knew, and Chen Ang kept it in his mind. Taking his flight device, he set off immediately. He had the map Vilde gave him, so finding the other party certainly wouldn't be difficult.

Even if he couldn't lie in wait for him at his home, he would surely be able to obtain relevant clues.

By following the trail, he didn't believe he wouldn't be able to catch the person, unless this guy fled directly to another world or a parallel universe. However, he believed that if the other party truly had such ability, he wouldn't even be unable to deal with Vilde.

Having considered everything, Chen Ang went straight to lie in wait at the entrance of Li Yi's house.

Similar to Vilde, the house this guy lived in was also very large. Compared to the Vilde family's giant villa and fields, this guy had even built some hunting grounds in the surrounding area.

Seeing these things, Chen Ang only felt that he still didn't know how to live well; these business people really knew how to live better than one another.

And when he was with the Butterfly Tribe, all he and Qing Mei could do was fish and catch shrimp. If they could have gotten a pasture like this, they surely could have had much more fun before.

Chen Ang kept getting distracted, but it didn't affect his observation of the current situation. What he found strange was that despite such a large villa, almost no one came or went all day. According to this method of guarding, he estimated he wouldn't get any results.

He had to get a clearer understanding of the movements of the people inside this villa.

Thinking this, Chen Ang simply snuck into the guard's lounge and, sure enough, saw the duty roster for the staff posted at the door, as well as the daily log of people entering and exiting.

However, there was no record of Li Yi's comings and goings on it; he didn't know if it was because the other party was the owner or because he simply didn't use this entrance.

Moreover, since he had already snuck to the main gate, he might as well enter the villa directly to take a look; perhaps he could even hear some useful news.

Just as he reached the corridor, he encountered two servants cleaning up and quickly hid in a nearby room, while the servants outside began discussing their master's affairs.

"Our boss hasn't been back for a while, hiding in the villa in the countryside. Why does he still need to hire so many bodyguards? Could it be that he really provoked someone he shouldn't have?"

"Let's not discuss what our boss does. This job pays so well and the work is easy; if we lose our jobs by talking carelessly, we'll have nowhere to cry."

The few servants walked further and further away as they spoke.

The information Vilde gave contained all of Li Yi's details and data, so Chen Ang naturally knew where the villa they mentioned was located. He immediately prepared to leave this place and try his luck at the place they described.

That place was not too far from here, only a few dozen minutes away by flight device. Chen Ang didn't dare get too close to the villa; if he were discovered, it would certainly make things more complicated.

While lying in wait outside this smaller villa, Chen Ang indeed discovered that there was more movement of people here, with people coming and going almost every hour. Although he didn't know the purpose of these people coming here, at least compared to before, it counted as progress.

Yet among these people coming and going, there was no Li Yi. It seemed the other party probably didn't go in and out of the villa often, but was hiding inside, not daring to come out.

Chen Ang lay in wait like this for an entire day.

He believed that no matter how much of a homebody this Li Yi was, given his status, it was impossible for him to really not enter or exit the villa for days. After all, he would certainly need to discuss business, and it was impossible to only discuss it in this one place.

Just as he was thinking this, he saw the number of people outside the house suddenly increase. The formation looked like they were welcoming someone who was no ordinary person.

Thinking he had finally seen the guy he needed to see, Chen Ang's spirit became highly tense.

He hadn't exposed his position before just to make it easier to make a move, but he hadn't expected that Li Yi would be so protective of his life, even hiring so many bodyguards.

Chen Ang pondered how he should make his move so that the other party could be successfully captured.

This place was still some distance from the Ghost Forest; if the other party struggled incessantly, he really wasn't sure if his flight would remain stable.

It was at this moment that Chen Ang saw another group of people not far away sneaking toward the back door, seemingly wanting to infiltrate from there.

What was this situation?

Although Chen Ang found it strange, he quickly realized that this was simply another method Li Yi used for self-preservation. He followed them decisively and, sure enough, saw the real Li Yi hurriedly enter the villa.

To this, Chen Ang naturally wouldn't give him a chance; he rushed directly in front of him. The speed was so fast that the bodyguards beside Li Yi couldn't react in time, and Li Yi was already grasped in Chen Ang's hands.

"All of you back off, or I will kill him immediately." Chen Ang used Li Yi as a threat.

Those few people looked at each other and then suddenly rushed to attack Chen Ang, but they were simply no match for him and were quickly defeated. Li Yi was even more heart-dead, giving up struggling directly and instead wanting to find a chance to try and persuade Chen Ang, hoping to bribe the other party.

Chen Ang hadn't expected Li Yi to be so cooperative, but this was a good thing however he looked at it. He didn't ask too many questions, started the flight device, and the two soon arrived at the Ghost Forest. Seeing this place, a look of panic appeared on Li Yi's face, and he naturally knew how Chen Ang intended to deal with him.

"No, you can't leave me here alone. What do you want? I can give you anything, as long as you spare my life." Li Yi pleaded bitterly.

He was filled with fear for this place, and he understood even more that no one would come to save him here. After all, he was a lone wolf, and besides financial power, he had nothing to compare with Vilde.

Unfortunately, this guy had suppressed him at every turn, which was why he had come up with those crooked ways. He hadn't expected the other party to be so lucky as to find such a powerful helper.

"Vilde said he wants your life. We already experienced the special nature of this place last time, and this time it's your turn." Chen Ang had no intention of stopping at all and brought the person directly into the forest. Familiar with the environment, Chen Ang was naturally not afraid, just walking straight into the depths of the woods.

And this time, the mist-people inside were extremely excited to see Chen Ang, surrounding him one after another, even attempting to attack him, but they had no ability to attack at all.

This scene successfully scared Li Yi so much that he couldn't speak, his whole body trembling. It was this reaction of his that led the mist-people to find a new target for their attack, and this time their attack on Li Yi had real physical damage. Regarding this, Chen Ang began to suspect whether these things could only attack those who felt fear toward them, or even cause them to have some illusions.

After all, although Li Yi screamed repeatedly, there were no wounds or injuries to be seen on his body, so Chen Ang didn't stop the mist-people. Along the way, he was soon brought by these mist-people to the cave from before.

At this moment, quite a few mist-people had begun to take on Li Yi's appearance.

"Alright, we're here. Do you have anything else you want to say?" Chen Ang said to Li Yi, while also fastening the handcuffs he had prepared long ago onto the other party's hands and binding him to the stone wall.

Seeing Chen Ang's actions, Li Yi finally sobered up a bit, hurriedly grabbing Chen Ang's hand while taking out items from his body one by one.

"These, these are the contact details of my partners, and this card—the money inside is enough to buy a city. I'll give all of this to you."

"And this is the key to my general warehouse; there are many rare materials inside. I only ask that you spare my life."

A way out?

Chen Ang found it ridiculous; after all, he hadn't given them any chances before. However, these things of his should be useful, and he didn't want Li Yi to die too quickly, lest those mist-people find their way out on their own, which might harm more innocent people later.
