Chapter 187: Killer Syndicate

A figure invisible to the naked eye flashed; A Fu emerged. He dove into the bowl, then rose with a whistle, his body transforming into four streaks of light that flew off in four different directions.

With a boom, the bowl mixed with blood and water shot into the sky, and then the needle of the Compass began to spin rapidly.

Finally, the needle pointed to the west and trembled violently.

"Due west, within a fifty-kilometer radius." Chen Yu's expression changed slightly.

"Mr. Chen, what does this mean? Could it be that she, she has been in this vicinity all along?" Liu Chengye asked excitedly.

"Only a general direction, fifty kilometers; it's noteworthy." Chen Yu furrowed his brows.

"I will send people to inquire immediately." Liu Chengye was extremely agitated.

"Mr. Liu, don't be in such a hurry." Chen Yu stopped him: "Find people to investigate discreetly."

"Why?" Liu Chengye asked.

"After she gave birth to the child, did you never see her again? Did she take the initiative to cut off contact with you?" Chen Yu asked.

"That is the case," Liu Chengye said.

"She was intentionally hiding from you," Chen Yu said: "And the news of her death may not be true. She simply lost a child, became disheartened, and holds a grudge against you."

"If you really go looking with great fanfare, in case she finds out, she will continue to hide from you; in that case, you will never have a way to find her and her daughter."

"What did you say? You mean she... is still alive?" Liu Chengye looked at Chen Yu in disbelief, his face full of shock.

"It is only a guess, I cannot be entirely certain. I will go over there to take a look first later," Chen Yu said.

"Mr. Chen, I leave it to you." Liu Chengye bowed deeply to Chen Yu.

"Alright, Roujin, let's go first." Chen Yu turned his head and said.

"Uncle Liu, we will leave first. Tomorrow, I will go with Chen Yu. By the way, send me a photo of the aunt from before. Although it has been decades, there will surely be some resemblance," Yan Roujin said.

"Good, I will send it to you immediately... Jiyuan, see Mr. Chen out," Liu Chengye said.

"Yes, Godfather." Liu Jiyuan nodded and saw the two of them out.

Getting into the car, Chen Yu and Yan Roujin left.

"Chen Yu, do you think the chances of finding her are high?" Yan Roujin asked.

"Hard to say, but we can try our luck." Chen Yu smiled slightly: "Let's go west tomorrow and see."

"The range is too big, fifty kilometers." Yan Roujin said.

"That's why we can only try our luck." Chen Yu laughed: "Alright, I'll take you back first."

Just as Chen Yu finished speaking, the car suddenly made a bang; the front tire blew out, and he slammed on the brakes to a stop.

"What happened?" Yan Roujin was startled.

"Sit tight." Chen Yu roared. Almost at the same time he shouted, a truck suddenly rushed over from the side. The truck kept accelerating, pushing Yan Roujin's car toward the side of the road.

This was a road with few human footprints; on one side was a huge pond. The truck driver stepped on the accelerator with all his might, looking as if he would not stop until he killed the two of them.

Chen Yu tore off his seatbelt, then lunged toward Yan Roujin in the passenger seat. After tearing off her seatbelt, he pulled her into his arms, and with his other hand, he slammed a punch into the front windshield.

Crash! The glass was shattered by Chen Yu's punch. He pulled Yan Roujin into his embrace, tightly shielding her head, and then lunged out.

The two rolled on the ground several times. Suddenly, two sharp steel spikes appeared in front. Chen Yu hugged Yan Roujin tightly and rolled with all his might, protecting her.

Pfft... Two steel spikes pierced his arm. These steel spikes had been pre-buried in the ground. If Chen Yu hadn't stopped in time, he likely would have been pierced through the heart.

"Chen Yu, are you alright?" Yan Roujin screamed.

"I'm fine, get away." Chen Yu hugged her and lunged to the side. With several muffled thuds, two bullets landed on the spot where the two had just been.

Chen Yu grabbed Yan Roujin and crawled rapidly along the ground, rushing toward the pond.

"Chen Yu, I can't swim, I'm afraid of water." Yan Roujin screamed.

But there was no time to worry about that now. Chen Yu pulled her and they jumped into the water with a splash.

The pond was extremely large. With a few splashes, the two disappeared without a trace.

On the shore, five killers looked at the ripples with cold expressions. One of the bearded men pressed his hand downward: "Chase."

The figures of the few flashed and quickly disappeared into the dark night.

On the opposite bank of the pond, two heads emerged. Chen Yu pulled Yan Roujin ashore and found a hidden place.

"Are you alright?" Chen Yu panted slightly.

"I'm fine." Yan Roujin had just choked on some water; there was actually no major problem. She said urgently: "You are injured, is it serious?"

When they rolled on the ground, Chen Yu's arm had been pierced by the steel spikes, and now it was bleeding non-stop.

"It's no big problem." Chen Yu reached out and pressed a few points on his arm to stop the bleeding and bandage it.

Yan Roujin watched from the side with a look of worry.

Suddenly, Chen Yu furrowed his brows and looked at the distant woods. There were faint figures; it seemed the killers had surrounded them again.

"These killers are not ordinary killers; they are quite troublesome. You stay here and don't move; I will deal with them first," Chen Yu said.

"Be careful." Yan Roujin nodded with a solemn expression.

Chen Yu smiled to reassure her, then his body shrank and he quickly went ashore. In a small grove on the shore, three killers were searching forward while vigilantly watching their surroundings.

"Keep your spirits up; the intelligence indicates he is an Inner Family Expert." A bearded man shouted in a low voice.

"Inner Family Expert? I think he's just average."

Before that killer finished speaking, a faint sound of breaking air came. His body stiffened, and he didn't move at all.

"Number 2, what's wrong?" The bearded man shouted.

Number 2 froze on the spot, not moving at all. A smear of blood slowly flowed down from his forehead, and he knelt to the ground with a thud.

"Watch out." The bearded man roared. As soon as he finished speaking, he dove to the ground, and at the same time, fired several shots to the side.

A figure flashed, and Chen Yu disappeared.

"Lao Er." The two flipped up to check on their companion, but a Silver Needle was buried deep into the center of their companion's brow, and the person was already cold.

"It's an expert, watch out." The bearded man roared.

Pfft... Another one of his companions was pierced through by a strand of Sword Qi, a hole the size of a teacup bursting open in his chest.

The bearded man locked onto Chen Yu, raised his hand, and fired two more shots.

Yet, despite being known as the marksman who never missed, these two shots missed their mark again.

"Big Brother, the target is too tough." The two killers on the other side turned back.

"Retreat." The bearded man shouted, and the three of them stood back-to-back, guns held steady, watching their surroundings vigilantly as they slowly moved outward.

They came from an overseas killer syndicate and had hunted countless people, but never in their wildest dreams did they imagine that this time, they would become the ones being hunted.

Suddenly, another figure flashed by; the three of them were indeed quick-eyed and fast-handed, and they fiercely pointed their guns in that direction and pulled the triggers.
