~7 min read 1,308 words

The middle-aged man suddenly pulled him down into a squat. "Kid, I don't know who that tall man is, but the way he looks, it's something none of us can handle."

Hearing this, Ning Chen did not answer; he simply kept staring at him, waiting for him to continue speaking.

"Kid, although I don't know what your true strength is, even if you are incredibly powerful, the gap between that person's physique and ours is simply too great. We must still be careful."

As he spoke, Ning Chen's ears twitched, and he shot to his feet in a flash.

At the same time, the middle-aged man heard a ding.

Just like that, the elevator doors slowly opened.

Several figures hurriedly walked toward them, and Ning Chen noticed that the figure of the man leading them looked somewhat familiar.

The person he was unsure about had still come.

668 Li Yu arrives at Sato.

Li Yu had still come.

Ning Chen leaned against the wall with his head down, while the middle-aged man, seeing the hostile look of the newcomers, calmly brushed the dust off his clothes and stood up.

"What are you two doing here?"

Li Yu looked at the two men before him with a dark, gloomy face.

He had only just arrived here this morning; who knew that upon arrival, he would hear news of the headquarters being bombed.

Facing this matter, the only person he could think of was Ning Chen!

Thinking of Ning Chen, his face suddenly turned cold and sharp.

Ning Chen, everything is Ning Chen. If not for him, how could so many things have happened now?

While fuming with anger in his thoughts, the middle-aged man calmly answered his words.

"I was sent by my lord Ye Lisi to inspect the situation on the fortieth floor."

Hearing the middle-aged man's words, Ning Chen wanted to stop him, but it was already too late.

Li Yu laughed. "You? A person sent by Ye Lisi?"

He looked the middle-aged man up and down and sneered, "With a look like yours, you should just go home."

With that, Li Yu ignored the expression of the middle-aged man before him and walked forward.

Then, suddenly noticing Ning Chen, who had been silent all along and leaning to the side, he glanced indifferently at him as he passed.

Yet he said nothing.

Only after Li Yu had walked far away did the middle-aged man's tightly clenched fist finally loosen.

"What kind of person is this guy? How so arrogant!"

Ning Chen ignored his remark. He could not stay here any longer; if he continued to linger, and Li Yu turned back for a surprise attack, he would be in trouble.

He walked straight toward the elevator. The middle-aged man watched him leave and hurriedly followed.

"Why are you leaving? Aren't you looking for the girl? I still have a mission. Do you want to accompany me to complete this mission?"

After the incident last time, the middle-aged man understood.

As long as he brought this kid along, his mission success rate would be much higher.

Ning Chen shook his head. "It is not suitable to stay here for long."

At that moment, Li Yu had taken only one step when he suddenly realized something. Without hesitation, he quickly turned around and ran back!

That person just now was very strange!

Moreover, he had a very strong feeling that that person must be Ning Chen!

Just as he turned and ran back, he happened to see the elevator doors slowly closing.

Standing inside the elevator, Ning Chen slowly raised his head to look at Li Yu.

"Ning Chen! Damn it! Catch that person for me!"

Li Yu shouted with a broken voice, rushing toward the elevator in a rage.

"Damn it, kid, that person is charging over. What, what do we do!"

Hearing the middle-aged uncle's anxious voice, Ning Chen calmly kept pressing the upward button, looking indifferently at the very anxious Li Yu.

Just as Li Yu was about to charge over, the elevator doors happened to close.

Boom!

Li Yu kicked the elevator door fiercely with his foot.

He hurriedly pressed the button for the downward elevator, but it was completely useless.

He could only watch the elevator descending.

Inside the elevator.

"Kid, did you provoke many people? You..."

Before he could finish, Ning Chen directly changed the subject. "Do you have a machine for searching for people over there?"

Hearing this, the middle-aged man was stunned.

Was he asking him to find the girl?

Suddenly, the corners of the middle-aged man's mouth slowly curled up. "It's just finding a little girl. Leave it to me. I only need..."

Before the middle-aged man could state the estimated time, Ning Chen directly said.

"Twelve hours. It must be found."

"Twelve hours? Kid, who do you think I am? Am I a thousand-li-eyed person?"

The middle-aged man spoke somewhat angrily, while Ning Chen kept his hands in his pockets.

Ding!

The elevator doors happened to slowly open. Seeing a large crowd of black-robed people surge in, Ning Chen and the middle-aged man hurriedly walked out of the elevator.

"Four days have already passed of the one-week period."

Just as he stepped out of the elevator, the system's voice, which had been reminding him intermittently, sounded again.

Ning Chen understood in his heart; he gave no lengthy reply, merely a faint "Hmm."

The two walked out slowly. Once they had successfully left the headquarters, Ning Chen did not hesitate further, only quickening his pace to distance himself from Ye Lisi's headquarters.

He knew that if he lingered here any longer, once Li Yu came down, the trouble would be immense.

Besides, this was Ye Lisi's headquarters.

"Where are the people from just now! Where are the people who just came down!"

Li Yu rushed down, immediately grabbing someone in the hall and asking excitedly.

At that moment, Ye Lisi walked in slowly. "Li Yu, why are you so impatient?"

Seeing Ye Lisi, Li Yu calmed down somewhat. Frowning, he said, "Did you see Ning Chen?"

"Ning Chen?"

Ye Lisi shook his head. "I have been looking for him, but there has been no trace."

"Just now, I thought I saw Ning Chen's figure, but I wasn't sure if it was him. When I finally wanted to go find him, he was gone."

Hearing what Li Yu said, Ye Lisi slowly frowned. "Ning Chen is truly too cunning. We have searched for so long and found nothing."

Li Yu helplessly sighed. "But I have a feeling he is about to make some huge move..."

Before he could finish, Ye Lisi cut him off.

"I do not hope that the huge move you speak of concerns the headquarters."

The instant the words fell, the headquarters suddenly grew restless, for an uninvited guest was walking in from outside the main gate.

The blond man slowly entered with his guards behind him. The black-robed people in the headquarters, upon seeing his arrival, cast not a single glance that held any goodwill.

Ye Lisi frowned and turned around. "Wang Zi? What are you doing here? This is my headquarters."

Hearing this, the blond man sneered.

"Your headquarters? Your shabby headquarters?"

The moment the words fell, the surrounding black-robed people immediately grew restless.

"Get out!"

"Damn royalty! Get out!"

"The royalty has no business here! Out! Out!"

Ye Lisi calmly raised his hand, and the black-robed people instantly fell silent.

Seeing this commotion, the blond man laughed. "Truly, all of Ye Lisi's dogs. One call, one stop; they are all so obedient."

Wang Zi spoke with contempt, while Ye Lisi calmly clasped his hands behind his back.

"Wang Zi, if your father saw you acting like this, would he not be angry?"

The moment his father was mentioned, Wang Zi's expression immediately turned sour.
