Chapter 89: Conspiracy Emerges, Difficulty in Breaking the Situation

The black vortex was like the blood-red mouth of a giant beast, exuding heart-palpitating suction.

Ji Chen and Ceng Yue held hands and stepped into it without looking back.

After the world spun, they found themselves in a desolate ruin.

Broken walls and rubble were everywhere, and the air was filled with the smell of dust, suffocating.

"What kind of ghost place is this?" Ceng Yue couldn't help but complain, disgustedly patting the dust off her body.

Ji Chen looked around, his brows tightly locked.

Everything here exuded a bizarre aura, making him feel very uncomfortable.

"Be careful, there must be something strange here."

They moved forward along the broken street, their feet making "creak, creak" sounds on the gravel, appearing particularly harsh in the silent environment.

The surrounding buildings were twisted and deformed, as if they could collapse at any moment, and the air was filled with a smell of decay, nauseating.

"Ugh... this smell, it's the best!" Ceng Yue covered her nose, looking disgusted.

Ji Chen didn't speak; he keenly sensed a trace of abnormality.

The surrounding air seemed to become viscous, and an invisible pressure enveloped them, making him feel difficulty breathing.

"It's coming!" Ji Chen shouted in a low voice, pulling Ceng Yue behind him.

As soon as he finished speaking, a group of figures in black uniforms darted out from the ruins, surrounding them tightly.

These people all had cold eyes and were full of killing intent; one look and you knew they weren't good people.

"Who are you?" Ji Chen asked in a deep voice, his gaze vigilantly scanning the surrounding figures.

"Hmph, don't ask what you shouldn't ask, just follow us obediently!" The leader snorted coldly, his tone full of disdain.

"Want to catch us? Then see if you have the ability!" Ji Chen sneered.

The two sides confronted each other, the atmosphere tense, as if a tightly stretched string that could break at any moment...

"Heh, just relying on you small fries, and you want to stop me?" Ji Chen's lips curled into a look of disdain, a dazzling light gathering in his hands.

The light suddenly bloomed, as dazzling as a small sun, almost blinding the men in black.

"Damn, what the hell!" "Blinded my eyes!" Exclamations came from the camp of the men in black, hurriedly covering their eyes.

Taking this opportunity, Ji Chen and Ceng Yue rushed into the enemy formation like two bolts of lightning.

Fists and feet added, every move lethal.

Every punch, every kick, contained powerful supernatural ability, bombarding the men in black like cannonballs.

"Bang, bang, bang!" The dull sound of collisions was endless, accompanied by the painful wails of the men in black.

However, the men in black were numerous and well-trained, quickly reacting and reorganizing their offensive.

They cooperated tacitly, their offensive surging like a tide, and Ji Chen and Ceng Yue gradually felt the strain.

"Damn, how are these guys like cockroaches, killing them never ends!" Ceng Yue cursed in a low voice, but her movements didn't slow down in the slightest.

Ji Chen's breathing also began to become rapid, and his body gradually felt exhausted.

The surrounding air seemed to solidify, suppressing people until they couldn't breathe.

He knew this wouldn't work; he had to find a way to break the stalemate.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration hit Ji Chen, and a bold idea surged into his heart.

"Yueyue, change strategy! Let's use a combined attack!" He shouted.

Ceng Yue understood, and the two quickly changed formation, standing back-to-back, forming a circular defense that was both offensive and defensive.

"Ice and Fire Heaven!" Ji Chen roared, simultaneously releasing scorching flames and bone-chilling frost from his hands.

Two diametrically opposed energies intertwined, forming a powerful shockwave that swept out.

"Boom!" With a loud noise, the surrounding buildings collapsed one after another, the men in black were shaken until they were staggering, screaming repeatedly.

"What's the situation?! This... how is this possible!" The leader of the men in black widened his eyes in disbelief; he clearly felt the sudden change in Ji Chen's power.

The surrounding atmosphere instantly reversed; the originally suppressed atmosphere was swept away, replaced by heart-stirring power.

Ji Chen and Ceng Yue stood side by side, their gazes like torches, as if two war gods, looking down on the world.

Ji Chen sneered, slowly raising his right hand, pointing at the leader of the men in black, "Now, it's your turn..." Ji Chen's eyes locked onto the leader of the men in black, a cold smile on his lips, "Just relying on you and you want to be the boss? Go home and wash up and sleep!" The leader of the men in black didn't lag behind, grinning hideously, "Kid, big tone! Today I'll let you see what real power is!"

The two instantly fought into a ball.

Fists and feet added, energy colliding, producing deafening roars.

Ji Chen's speed was as fast as lightning, every attack incomparably precise, striking directly at the vital point.

The power of the leader of the men in black was not to be underestimated; every punch carried the momentum of overturning the sea, as if wanting to crush Ji Chen.

"Damn! This speed, this power, simply heaven-defying!" The small fries hiding in the distance watched dumbfounded, unable to help but exclaim.

The battle was extremely intense, the two going back and forth, neither giving way.

Ji Chen constantly looked for the leader's flaws in the battle; he discovered that although the leader's power was powerful, his speed was slightly inferior.

Therefore, he began to use his speed advantage, constantly wandering, looking for the best attack timing.

Ceng Yue watched Ji Chen worriedly from the side, her "Ji Chen felt her gaze, a warm current surging in his heart, his whole body full of power.

He knew that for her, for their future, he must win!

"Just now!" Ji Chen seized an opportunity, his figure flashing, instantly appearing behind the leader.

He gathered all his energy, throwing a punch at the leader's back.

"Bang!" With a loud noise, the leader was blasted away, falling heavily to the ground, spitting blood.

"Cough, cough..." The leader struggled to crawl up, his face full of unwillingness, "You... you actually..."

Ji Chen walked toward him step by step, his eyes cold, "The game is over." He slowly raised his right foot, stepping fiercely onto the leader's chest.

With a "crack" sound, accompanied by the leader's desperate scream, everything returned to calm.

Ji Chen slowly stood up, his gaze sweeping across the surroundings; he was like a king, ruling the world.

The air was filled with the taste of victory; he had finally successfully cracked the conspiracy and defeated the final enemy.

He stood at the peak of victory, enjoying his moment of glory.

He hadn't had time to properly enjoy the joy of victory when he saw... ===== CHAPTER 90 =====

After the dust settled, Ji Chen's figure appeared at the edge of the ruins; his face was pale and his breathing chaotic, clearly having suffered no light injuries.

He looked at everything before him, his heart filled with shock and doubt.

At this moment, Ceng Yue ran over and asked anxiously, "Are you alright?" Ji Chen shook his head, his expression grave, "I'm fine, but... all of this seems to be just the beginning..." He looked toward the depths of the ruins, where an even greater danger seemed to be hidden, and a powerful sense of oppression struck him...

"We must leave here," Ji Chen's voice was low and firm, "Now!" He pulled Ceng Yue's hand and ran toward the outside of the ruins without looking back.
