Chapter 107: Supernatural Ability Companionship

Silence, dead silence.

The air was filled with the smell of gunpowder after the battle, and a trace of faint bloody scent.

Ji Chen and Ceng Yue stood back-to-back, scanning their surroundings vigilantly, like two statues, motionless, as if any movement could make them enter a state of battle instantly.

The battlefield, which had just been like a hell on earth, was now so quiet it made one feel a bit creepy; this peace was more like the calm before a storm.

But, beneath this peace, a different kind of undercurrent surged.

Ji Chen's gaze seemed to be stuck on Ceng Yue, unable to move away.

He looked at her, his eyes filled with undisguised tenderness and love.

After successive fierce battles, her face was stained with some dust, but it didn't diminish her beauty in the slightest; instead, it added a trace of heroic spirit, making Ji Chen's heart flutter.

Ceng Yue was his only one, and also his soft spot; for her, he could be an enemy to the whole world!

Ceng Yue felt Ji Chen's scorching gaze, as if burned by fire, and a layer of faint red quickly flushed on her face.

This was an experience she had never had before; her heart beat faster, her cheeks burned, this feeling was a bit like...

Shy?

She was scared by this thought herself, hurriedly turning her head away, not daring to look at Ji Chen, but a trace of sweetness was quietly spreading in the bottom of her heart.

The surrounding air seemed to become sweet and sticky, like milk tea with honey added, making one intoxicated.

At this moment, between the two, there was no tension of battle, no threat of enemies, only a kind of indescribable ambiguity quietly growing.

They clearly said nothing, yet seemed to have said thousands of words.

This atmosphere was simply more idol-drama than an idol drama; if outsiders saw it, they would probably shout "I've shipped it."

The surrounding silence was broken, a breeze blew gently, rolling up the residual branches and fallen leaves on the ground.

Ji Chen looked at Ceng Yue, his mouth curling slightly, revealing a gentle smile.

Ji Chen gently took Ceng Yue's hand. Ceng Yue didn't resist. The moment their fingertips touched, a feeling of numbness like an electric current spread through her entire body.

They looked at each other, everything around them seemed to disappear, only the sound of each other's heartbeats, one by one, clear and powerful, as if playing a moving love concerto.

This atmosphere was sweet to the point of being cloying, simply sweeter than honey!

Suddenly, a rapid ringing sound broke this beautiful peace.

Ji Chen's brow furrowed slightly, taking out the Special Communicator and connecting the call.

"Situation! We intercepted an encrypted message; someone is secretly planning to deal with you and the sister-in-law!" The voice from the communicator sounded anxious.

"Sister-in-law?" Ceng Yue raised her eyebrows; she quite liked this title.

Ji Chen coughed slightly, signaling the other party to pay attention to their words, then said in a low voice: "What kind of people are they? What is their purpose?"

"Specific identities are still under investigation, but according to information analysis, they seem to want to snatch the new ability you recently acquired." The voice from the communicator carried a trace of gravity. "And, they seem to have already mastered your whereabouts."

Ji Chen and Ceng Yue's sweet time came to an abrupt end, and their faces instantly became serious.

This sudden news was like a bolt from the blue, pulling them back from the romantic pink bubbles to the cruel reality.

"Looks like someone is jealous." Ji Chen sneered. He had recently increased his strength significantly, attracting the covetousness of some petty people, which was within his expectations.

"Want to snatch my things? They have to see if they have the ability!" Ji Chen's fighting spirit burned, and he gripped Ceng Yue's hand tightly, giving her a reassuring look. "Don't worry, I'm here."

Ceng Yue gripped Ji Chen's hand back, feeling the temperature of his palm, her heart peaceful.

She didn't need any comfort, because she knew that as long as Ji Chen was there, nothing was a problem.

"Notify the brothers, prepare for battle!" Ji Chen ordered the communicator. "This time, I want them to come and not return!"

Hanging up the phone, Ji Chen looked at Ceng Yue, his mouth curling into a wicked smile: "Looks like our honeymoon trip has to end early."

Ceng Yue also smiled, excitement flashing in her eyes: "Just what I wanted, I've long wanted to stretch my muscles."

The two exchanged a smile, their eyes filled with tacit understanding.

They knew a fierce battle was about to come, but they were fearless.

Because they were each other's strongest backing, and each other's most trusted partners.

"Hum—" Ji Chen's palm glowed with golden light, and a powerful energy fluctuation spread out.

"Found them..." Ji Chen looked at the light in his palm.

Ji Chen's palm shone with golden light, and the powerful energy fluctuation rippled in the air like thunder, everything around them seeming to stand still.

He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and the light in his hand expanded rapidly, forming a golden light sphere.

In an instant, his senses seemed to be infinitely amplified; every subtle Supernatural Ability fluctuation, every weak electric current, was clearly presented in his perception.

"They're here..." He slowly opened his eyes, the golden light gradually fading, but the confidence on his face was even firmer.

Ceng Yue looked at him, her eyes filled with admiration, her trust in him even more indestructible.

"Let's go, let's go meet those guys." Ji Chen said softly, gripping Ceng Yue's hand.

The two flew rapidly toward the direction indicated by the clues, the smoke and ruins behind them gradually moving away, replaced by a brilliant urban night view.

The wind whistled between the high-rise buildings, as if cheering for their actions.

Inside a hidden basement in the city, a group of Ability Users were sitting together, whispering and discussing something.

Their faces were tense, their eyes filled with haze.

Suddenly, a slight sound of footsteps interrupted their conversation, but they didn't notice the approach of danger.

"They are indeed here." Ji Chen's voice was low and firm, and a trace of murderous intent flashed in Ceng Yue's eyes.

The two approached silently, like ghosts in the night, approaching the group of conspirators silently.

"Boss, what should we do?" A short Ability User asked in a low voice, clearly feeling uneasy about what was about to happen.

"No rush, wait for them to deliver themselves to our door." The mastermind's voice was cold, carrying a trace of triumph.

He stood up, looking around coldly, but didn't notice that Ji Chen and Ceng Yue were already close at hand.

"Waiting for us?" Ji Chen's voice suddenly sounded from the dark, as if coming from hell.

He and Ceng Yue appeared simultaneously, their fighting spirit burning, their eyes filled with unstoppable light.

The group of conspirators exploded instantly, fleeing in panic, but it was already too late.

"Your conspiracy ends here." Ji Chen said coldly, releasing a powerful Supernatural Ability fluctuation; the air seemed to have solidified.

Ceng Yue stood by his side, the two cooperating tacitly, like an impeccable double-edged sword, forcing the enemy into a dead end.

"You're right..." The mastermind's voice carried a trace of despair, but a trace of ruthlessness suddenly flashed in his eyes. "However, you haven't seen a real opponent yet."

Ji Chen and Ceng Yue exchanged a smile, their eyes filled with fighting spirit and determination.

At this moment, their hearts were connected, fearless. ===== CHAPTER 108 =====
