Without taking time to think too much, Wang Yue immediately stepped out of the door, activated the navigation function on his communication device, and rushed towards the location indicated by Yan Fangfei.
With the full speed of a Transcendent Realm expert, he could even surpass flying vehicles over short distances.
Moreover, since Wang Yue had trained in the Wind God Leg technique, his speed was likely no less than that of a peak Transcendent Realm expert.
Thus, it only took a few minutes for Wang Yue to approach the designated location. It was an industrial complex with extremely complex terrain.
Since it was already late at night, the workers had all left, leaving the compound completely silent.
Li Yingyingâs master was very mysterious and likely came from a prominent background.
The danger she faced was so serious that even Wang Yue couldnât afford to be careless. Therefore, he made no noise and quietly approached the spot where Yan Fangfei had accurately located her.
It was a small metal shed within the industrial complex. Apparently, Li Yingying had hidden there earlier. But when Wang Yue arrived, there was no sign of her anywhere.
Just as he was about to contact Yan Fangfei to have her relocate Li Yingyingâs position, Wang Yue suddenly heard strange laughter coming from nearby.
Then someone said, "Senior Sister Yu, didnât you expect this? After decades of fleeing, youâve finally fallen into my hands."
Followed by Li Yingyingâs masterâs voice: "Indeed unexpected. I, Yu Suxin, managed to evade countless expertsâ pursuit, only to die at the hands of these insignificant fools."
Hearing these voices, Wang Yue felt both joy and shock. He was happy because if Li Yingyingâs master was there, then Li Yingying must also be present.
But he was shocked because at such close range, he couldnât sense any trace of true energy fluctuations.
Could it be that those attacking Li Yingying and her master were experts above the seventh level of the Transcendent Realm?
Although it seemed unlikely, for safetyâs sake, Wang Yue decided not to make a fuss. Instead, he quietly approachedâafter all, the attackers were currently in a situation where "villains die from talking too much," so they wouldnât be in immediate danger.
Then, the voice that had laughed strangely said, "Death? Thatâs not so simple. Senior Sister Yu, you killed your husband and his entire family on your wedding day, and then wandered around for decades. You probably havenât tasted the embrace of a man yet, right?
How about we brothers let you experience that, so as not to waste such a beautiful body. And this little girlâshe must be your disciple, right? She looks quite fresh and tender. We brothers will gladly accept her as well."
"You wonât succeed!" Yu Suxinâs voice was filled with grief, anger, and determination.
Wang Yue immediately imagined a scene: Yu Suxin, filled with extreme grief and anger, activated a secret technique and self-destructed, blowing herself, her disciple, and their enemies to pieces.
Thinking of this, Wang Yue no longer cared about hiding. He shouted, "Stop!" and rushed forward.
Upon approaching, Wang Yue saw the situation clearly: Li Yingying and her master were trapped in a corner, their faces pale and expressions filled with despair and hatred.
Opposite them stood four men in black, looking at them with triumphant smiles.
Wang Yueâs sudden appearance surprised both sides.
The four men in black immediately adopted defensive postures, while Li Yingying and her master were terrified.
"Wang Yue, this has nothing to do with you. Go away!" Li Yingying cried urgently.
She now regrets it deeply. She had only wanted to confess her feelings one last time before dying, so that she could die without regret.
But who would have thought that Wang Yue would also be in Tianhai and find her so quickly?
This time, she really had put him in danger.
Although Yu Suxin didnât care about Wang Yue as much as her disciple did, she still didnât want to involve innocent people.
So she said to the four men, "He has nothing to do with me. Let him go. Iâll go back to Xuan Su Sect with you, so that you can claim credit. Otherwise, Iâll commit suicide right here, greatly reducing your chances of gaining credit."
"Suicide? If you had that ability, would you still be waiting until now?" The leader of the black-clothed men sneered. From his voice, Wang Yue could tell that he was the same person who had let out that strange laugh earlier.
"Then you can give it a try!" Yu Suxin said coldly, but then she quietly sent a message to Wang Yue: "Iâll hold them off while you take your chance to run. I donât want Yingying to die with any regrets."
Although the person she really cared about wasnât herself, Wang Yue was still deeply moved.
But he didnât act impulsively, because even now he couldnât sense any fluctuations in the true energy of those four black-clothed men.
Li Yingying and her masterâs true energy had already been depleted, so it was normal for there to be no fluctuations. But those four men didnât seem like they had exhausted their true energy at all. They were also in a combat-ready state, so how could there be no fluctuations?
Either their cultivation level far exceeded Wang Yueâs, making it impossible for him to detect them, or they had some special techniques or equipment that concealed the fluctuations in their true energy.
Although Wang Yue tended to believe the latter, he didnât want to take risks. Right now, saving Li Yingying and her master was the top priority. Killing enemies and venting anger could wait.
So Wang Yue quietly approached Li Yingying and the other woman. Then, suddenly using the Wind God Leg, he moved like a ghost to their side, picked them up one by one, and ran away.
"Seeking death!" The leader of the black-clothed men shouted angrily. Then he waved his hand and ordered his three companions, "Get him!"
The four men immediately chased after Wang Yue.
But after chasing for a few steps, Wang Yue suddenly stopped and turned around to face the four black-clothed men.
"Put us down and run!" Li Yingying said urgently.
Yu Suxin was overjoyed because of the speed Wang Yue demonstrated just now; his cultivation level was much higher than she had imagined. At least he could handle those four black-clothed men without a problem.
Wang Yue stopped for this reason.
When the four black-clothed men started chasing him, their true energy fluctuations finally appeared, revealing their cultivation levels.
The leader of the black-clothed men had reached the third level of the Degenerate Mortal Realm, while the other three were all in the True Return Realmâone at the peak of the True Return Realm and two in the later stages of the True Return Realm.
Such opponents were no longer a challenge for Wang Yue, but he was still very surprised.
Because earlier, Li Yingyingâs master had clearly said that those men were nothing special, and they hadnât disagreed.
So were they too arrogant to disagree, or was what Li Yingyingâs master said true, making it impossible for them to disagree?
If it were the latter, then that meant there was a lot of information to consider.
The four black-clothed men didnât have Yu Suxinâs keen eyesight. Coupled with Wang Yueâs ability to accelerate and decelerate quickly, they couldnât determine Wang Yueâs cultivation level at all. So they remained confident and didnât even bother to threaten him. They simply rushed forward and attacked Wang Yue.
Wang Yue was worried that if he put Li Yingying and her master down, those four men might attack them. So he continued to hold them, shifted his legs, and rushed back, using the second technique of the Wind God Leg, "Wind Grass Strength," and kicked repeatedly.
Bang bang bang~
With three almost simultaneous dull noises, the three black-clothed men in the True Return Realm were thrown backward and fell to the ground, convulsing. It was clear they were dead.
Only the leader of the black-clothed men managed to avoid Wang Yueâs series of kicks. He asked in surprise, "Who exactly are you?"
Wang Yue didnât answer. He continued to kick repeatedly, attacking the black-clothed man with each move being faster than the last.
Wang Yueâs true energy was of exceptional purity compared to ordinary warriors.
He used the Wind God Leg, a skill that was classified as lower-tier heavenly rank, but when executed by him, it was comparable to mid-tier heavenly rank.
Even if the black-clothed man had the same cultivation level as Wang Yue, or even one or two levels higher, he wouldnât be able to match Wang Yue.
Moreover, since the black-clothed manâs cultivation level was one level lower than Wang Yueâs, he was even less likely to win.
It was because Wang Yueâs Wind God Leg was still not very proficient that the black-clothed man managed to withstand about ten kicks before being hit in the chest and falling to the ground seriously injured.
During this time, the black-clothed man tried to escape, but his speed couldnât compare to Wang Yue, who practiced the Wind God Leg. He couldnât get away.
He also tried to send a signal to his sect behind him, but Wang Yue had already used Yan Fangfeiâs high-tech to block all signals in that area. No information could be sent out.
After seriously injuring the black-clothed man, Wang Yue didnât hesitate. He gave him another kick, sending him to join his three brothers who had already died.
Then, Wang Yue took the space rings of the four black-clothed men and used his true energy to completely erase any traces of their existence.
Only then did he put Li Yingying and her master down again. He asked, "How do you feel?"
Li Yingying stared at Wang Yue with wide eyes, feeling both shocked and delighted, and also a bit incredulous.
According to her master, those four black-clothed men were all experts among experts, and one of them was even a powerful figure in the Degenerate Mortal Realm.
But in front of Wang Yue, they were like children who didnât know how to fight. They were easily killed. How strong must Wang Yue be?
Yu Suxin was also hesitant. She had to admit that she had misjudged him. Wang Yueâs talent and foundation far exceeded those of the three major aristocratic families in Jinling.
Even ordinary martial arts holy lands didnât have such a freak like him. Perhaps only those holy lands with supreme traditions could produce such a person.
After being surprised for a while, Yu Suxin rolled her eyes and fainted.
"Master!" Li Yingying cried out, holding her masterâs delicate body tightly and saying anxiously, "Brother-in-law, please help save my master."
"What happened to her?" Wang Yue asked in confusion. The woman was fine just a moment ago. How could she suddenly become unconscious?
"My master suffered serious internal injuries in her early years, which damaged her martial arts foundation. Just now, to deal with those black-clothed men, she forced herself to use more power than she could currently handle.
As a result, her internal injuries flared up again," Li Yingying explained.
Wang Yue reached out and grabbed Yu Suxinâs jade wrist, checking her pulse. He didnât understand much about medical principles, but he could still sense that Yu Suxinâs meridian disorder was extremely severe, even showing signs of becoming out of control.
"How is she?" Li Yingying asked anxiously.
"Sheâs very seriously injured. We need to find a place to stay first," Wang Yue said with a frown.
Yu Suxin was too badly injured to be moved around anymore.
However, they couldnât go to the Warrior Hotel. From various clues, it seemed that those four men in black had powerful backers. If their whereabouts were revealed outside, they might be detected by those forces.
But Wang Yue still had an option: Zhang Hong. After all, Tianhai was his territory, so finding a hiding place shouldnât be a problem.
After making contact, Zhang Hong arrived shortly thereafter, along with Li Gang and Wu Li.
Li Gang and Li Yingying were surprised to meet each other in this place.
But now wasnât the time for them to talk. The group changed their appearances and went to one of Zhang Hongâs secret hideouts.
Even Zhang Hongâs family didnât know about this place, so it was extremely safe.
After settling Yu Suxin down, Wang Yue sent Zhang Hong and the others away, leaving only Li Yingying behind. Then he said, "Yingying, thereâs only one way to save your master now. But I donât know if sheâll agree."
