Bai Qingqing furrowed her brows lightly, wondering how the female protagonist ended up in Ye Haijun’s hands and why Shen Mingxuan hadn’t protected her.
Ye Haijun laughed arrogantly. He had never revealed his ability, so no one knew that he had the power of invisibility. As long as he remained hidden, no one could detect his presence.
Ye Haijun had originally intended to capture Bai Qingqing, but she was held in Fu Chen’s embrace, making it impossible for him to take action. He had to choose another girl instead.
He could tell from the expressions on the faces of the team members that the girl in his hands was equally important as Bai Qingqing.
The soldiers and abilities users brought by Ye Jianguo were easily defeated by the team within a few minutes. If Ye Haijun hadn’t secretly captured Bai Tiantian, the Ye family would have been in a disastrous state of failure.
“Let her go!” Shen Mingxuan’s eyes were filled with anger. Ice spikes appeared in the air, ready to fly towards Ye Haijun in the next second.
Ye Haijun, holding a hostage, was not afraid of him. He viciously pressed the gun against Bai Tiantian’s head and said coldly, “If any of you make a move, I can’t guarantee that she’ll survive.”
Bai Tiantian never expected to be kidnapped and used as a hostage. The sinister laughter of the man behind her felt like the Grim Reaper demanding her life.
Her heart pounded, and fear overflowed in her eyes as she trembled and said, “Let me go.”
Fu Chen looked coldly in their direction, his eyes devoid of any emotional fluctuations.
Ye Jianguo stood beside his son and said in a cold voice, “You better not make any rash moves. Otherwise, she’ll be dead immediately.”
The expressions of the Ye father and son were clear. If anyone dared to make a move, even if it meant death, they would drag Bai Tiantian down to hell.
“Dad, Brother,” Ye Jiahui hurriedly got out of the car, enduring the intense pain and itching all over her body. Her gaze swept harshly over Bai Qingqing, who was beside Fu Chen, and she walked towards her father.
With just one glance, she could see the current situation. Seeing that the Ye family had a hostage and was in an advantageous position, a trace of resentment flashed in her eyes.
Ye Jiahui had her face covered with a veil, and her eyes were filled with anger and hatred as she looked at Bai Qingqing. She coldly said, “Miss Bai, please hand over the antidote quickly.”
“I never expected you to be so malicious,” she lightly touched her face, her voice hoarse. “I simply had a favorable impression of Cheng Rui, and you wanted to ruin my face and even kill me.”
Oh, she was turning the tables.
Bai Qingqing coldly smiled inside. She feigned an innocent expression and held Fu Chen’s hand. “Brother, I didn’t poison anyone. I really didn’t.”
Ye Jiahui despised her as she stared at her. Holding a knife against Bai Tiantian’s neck, she ignored any notion of morality. “I’ll give you five seconds. If you don’t hand over the antidote, don’t blame me for being ruthless.”
Terrified, Bai Tiantian started crying, her voice trembling. “Save me, please save me…”
Shen Mingxuan was anxious and shouted, “Do you have the antidote or not? Give it to her! Do you want to kill Tian Tian?”
Innocent tears glistened in Bai Qingqing’s eyes. She looked pitifully at them and pleaded, “I don’t have it. She’s framing me.”
Ye Jiahui coldly sneered at her. “Nine, eight, seven…”
“Bai Qingqing!” Shen Mingxuan roared in anger. “Regardless of whether you poisoned anyone or not, give out the antidote first!”
“Shen Mingxuan, calm down!” Liang Zhiyu said in a deep voice.
Xiao Yang spoke up, “Qingqing didn’t poison anyone, so where would the antidote come from? Shen Mingxuan, are you crazy?”
Seeing the scene in front of her, Ye Jiahui’s excruciating pain seemed to disappear, and she imagined the scenario where Bai Qingqing would produce the antidote and kneel down to apologize to her. She smirked and continued counting, “Five, four, three…”
In the next second, the words stuck in her throat. She flew up in intense pain, crashing heavily onto the ground. She watched helplessly as Bai Tiantian was entangled by wood-based abilities and dragged away.
The Ye father and son were also attacked by invisible lightning-based abilities, causing them intense pain and paralysis. They slammed into the ground.
Then, Cheng Rui’s fire-based ability appeared out of thin air, and a roaring fire dragon rushed towards the Ye father and son, howling to devour them. The Ye father and son grimaced and dodged, while other abilities users who were protecting their leaders joined the fight.
Shen Mingxuan caught Bai Tiantian, relieved that she was safe, but a hint of annoyance flashed between his brows. He cautioned her, “Stay by my side and don’t run around.”
After Ye Jiahui got up from the ground, she let out a roar and fully utilized her ability. Strong winds swept around, and buildings, rocks, and sharp steel were haphazardly thrown towards the team.
The impact of the devastating objects was extremely strong, and wherever they missed, a pit was created. Buildings within several miles were destroyed.
Ye Jianguo had his throat cut by Liang Zhiyu’s wind blades. He held his bleeding throat and looked at everyone with a resentful gaze. Ye Haijun roared, “Dad!”
He evaded Cheng Rui’s fire dragon attack and disappeared once again with his invisibility.
Ye Jiahui recklessly attacked without distinguishing between friend and foe, injuring several abilities users, including some members of the team who sustained minor injuries and had to dodge and retreat.
Bai Qingqing, held in Fu Chen’s arms, looked on with indifference. Ye Jiahui was powerful enough to walk horizontally in the Yaoyang Base. With her own strength, she didn’t consider ordinary people as humans and had no qualms about killing them. In this dog-eat-dog world, she had the capital to do so.
Initially, Ye Jiahui viewed Bai Qingqing as insignificant and planned to play with her before eliminating her, but she unknowingly fell into Bai Qingqing’s trap from the beginning.
The chaotic and violent scene resembled a sci-fi apocalypse, and for a while, no one could get close to Ye Jiahui to stop her mad behavior. They could only evade in all directions.
Ye Jiahui’s eyes were bloodshot as she relentlessly pursued, a twisted smirk on her face. She was willing to do anything to kill Bai Qingqing.
Fu Chen held Bai Qingqing tightly in his arms, leaping to avoid sharp steel projectiles flying their way. Thunder-based abilities crackled, destroying one attacking object after another.
“Die!” A massive sphere descended from the sky, filled with various sharp objects capable of piercing through human bodies.
The overwhelming presence made it impossible to dodge in time. With a loud boom, countless smoke and dust splattered, expanding in circles like an exploding bomb.
Ye Jiahui laughed maniacally, “You despicable woman, I’ll kill you without leaving a single intact piece of you!”
In an instant, her laughter abruptly stopped, and her entire body felt an unbearable stinging pain. The madness-like itching sensation seemed like it was about to burst out of her skin.
“Ah ah ah ah ah!” She screamed in misery and resentment.
After the smoke cleared, a slender figure and another graceful figure walked out. Fu Chen held Bai Qingqing, appearing before her, both of them looking down at her with a disdainful gaze, as if they were staring at a filthy bug in the abyss.
An expression of disbelief appeared in Ye Jiahui’s eyes, and she growled, “It’s impossible… How are you still alive?”
“Whoosh whoosh!” Ice spikes came flying and pierced her shoulder, pinning her to the ground.
Shen Mingxuan’s eyes turned cold as he held Bai Tiantian and approached, while Liang Zhiyu, Xiao Yang, and Cheng Rui stepped forward with indifferent expressions on their faces.
Cheng Yan planned to eliminate the Ye family two days later, but they voluntarily came to their door, walking into their own death. Even if they eliminated the Ye family, there would be no negative rumors.
The power of abilities users was not endless. Overuse would cause bodily injuries and temporary loss of power.
Ye Jiahui had only one fate, death.
When Cheng Yan hurriedly arrived at the scene, the Ye family had one dead and one injured, and the other had escaped. He ordered the soldiers to clear the battlefield and capture Ye Jiahui.
Ye Jiahui was unwilling, saying, “Cheng Yan, you white-eyed wolf! How could you treat our Ye family like this?”
“Did your Ye family surround the Cheng family multiple times with soldiers? Did you keep an eye on me?” Cheng Yan’s face remained indifferent. “A person’s tolerance has limits.”
The Ye family’s arrogant behavior would eventually lead to this day. In the era where power reigns supreme, there are no laws to suppress people with hypocritical moral values. It’s ridiculous.
Ye Jiahui stared fiercely at Bai Qingqing, filled with hatred. She couldn’t understand how she, as a strong individual, could lose to a weak and scheming woman like her.
Bai Qingqing sensed the killing intent and slowly raised her gaze, her beautiful pupils flickering with a faint smile.
“Do you think anyone would believe you if you accuse me of poisoning?”
“You mistook the hunter for the prey. From the beginning, you got the perspective wrong.”
Ye Jiahui suddenly felt a chilling sensation running through her body, filled with an icy coldness. She had initially looked down on and underestimated Bai Qingqing, thinking she was just a manipulative woman who relied on men. But in the end, she found herself being played by her.
This girl was terrifying. Ye Jiahui deeply regretted not killing Bai Qingqing in the first place.
As Ye Jiahui was taken away, her gaze swept over the men comforting Bai Qingqing. They all had worried expressions on their faces, as if the girl was a fragile treasure that would break at any touch.
Little did they know, she was not a tender little white rabbit, but a terrifying man-eating rabbit.
Facing the concern of everyone, Bai Qingqing’s pale face showed a faint smile. “I’m really fine. My brother is protecting me.”
She turned her head and looked at Fu Chen, meeting his pitch-black eyes with a worried expression. “Brother, you’re not injured, right?”
Fu Chen shook his head. “I’m not.”
“That’s good.” Bai Qingqing relaxed and called out to Cheng Rui. “Come here.”
Cheng Rui, with a handsome and tough face, had some scars. She took out a handkerchief and spoke softly, “You’re too tall, squat down.”
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Cheng Rui, like a submissive wolf, half squatted in front of her. Everyone showed shocked expressions, their eyes fixed on them.
Bai Qingqing leaned over, her fair and slender fingers holding the handkerchief gently as she wiped his face. She said, “Your face is scratched and a bit dirty. Let me clean it for you.”
As she spoke, a faint fragrance filled the air, her voice gentle, captivating people involuntarily.
Cheng Rui stared at her intently, his eyes burning with heat, feeling a warm current surging in his heart.
Liang Zhiyu squinted her fox-like eyes. This… seems different from before. It seems that something happened when he wasn’t aware of it.
Xiao Yang’s heart felt sour like a lemon, feeling inexplicably frustrated.
Fu Chen’s dark eyes turned gloomy, his hands involuntarily tightening, and his thin lips formed a straight line.
