Chapter 239
Chapter 239: 239?Oneself Over Others?
Liang Che and Li Dian watched the rear view of Lu Shu carrying the motorcycle in the distance, “This is madness!”
You don’t even have the keys, why are you running with a motorcycle?!
Liang Che looked back on the 25 years of his life but couldn’t think of anyone so unscrupulous… No, actually he bumped into such a person this year when he just escaped from the heavenly network’s capture… he did encounter someone…
But he didn’t think much about it. After all, they were too far away. Moreover, Lu Shu was just a normal high school student in his impression while this person in front of him was a metahuman he wasn’t confident of beating even if he unleashed all his power.
But just at that moment, a few black SUVs sped towards Liang Che and Li Dian. Li Dian glanced at his compass and it was vibrating unstably… they were practitioners! The heavenly network!
Li Dian turned around and wanted to run but was halted by Liang Che, “What are you panicking for?! They might not be looking for us!”
This showed that when crucial things really happened, the 25-year-old Liang Che was more composed than the 39-year-old Li Dian. Being able to break away from the clutches of the heavenly network, he definitely had something others didn’t have.
He thought quickly and only after thinking silently for a few seconds did he realize. The two of them came over with their identities concealed; one with the tour group while the other with the group of bikers. Although that guy appeared suddenly along the way, what’s key was the fact that the heavenly network had no reason to be targeting them. Their identities were hidden all along!
Moreover, the other guy had already entered the vision of the heavenly network. If the two of them really suddenly turned and bolted, they would arouse suspicion immediately. Who knew if a highly skilled practitioner was amongst the group?
Although Li Dian was an old bird with experience, there was a reason for him not amounting to anything even at that age. Who had encountered scammers achieving real success?
For someone like Li Dian, it was more petty tricks than wisdom.
So even after wandering about and doing unlawful stuff for such a long time, he couldn’t even amass enough money to buy 5 magical stones. If it wasn’t for the revitalization of magical energy, he would be even worse off.
Liang Che and Li Dian pretended as if nothing happened and started walking back. The cars drove beside Liang Che and Li Dian and stopped beside them. Li Dian’s hands were, at this point in time, drenched in sweat.
The windows were lowered and a fit young man said in a friendly tone, “Brother!”
Liang Che turned and smiled, “Hey, what’s up?”
“Did you guys see someone carrying a motorcycle?” The young man smiled as he asked.
Damn… Liang Che shuddered. He immediately understood why this personnel from the heavenly network appeared. They were alarmed by the guy with the motorcycle, they must have been alerted when numerous people saw that guy previously!
But it was not the time to think about this. Liang Che composed himself and smiled, “Nope, why would there be someone carrying a motorcycle? How heavy is a motorcycle!”
Liang Che thought that his response was perfect. Commoners would wonder how someone could carry a motorcycle if they heard about this. His act was thorough enough, covering even the small details…
“Thanks,” The young man responded with a grin before turning back to the driver, “Let’s move forward and continue with the search.”
“Yes.”
The group of cars then set off again, and Liang Che and Li Dian could finally relax. Damn, if they found out who was behind all this trouble, they had to chase and kill him no matter what.
It was fine if he just stole their target, but he even brought the heavenly network here!
But just then, a young man beside one of the drivers suddenly felt something amiss, “There’s nothing in the precinity. No houses, no shops. What are those two guys doing here??”
The driver pondered for a moment before replying, “Could it be some villagers here?”
“That can’t be! They aren’t even dressed like shepherds!” the young man held up his walkie-talkie, “Turn back. Everyone take note, be prepared to engage anytime!”
Liang Che and Li Dian were still wondering how to track the guy who ruined their plans when they noticed the three black SUVs turning around. The young man who spoke to them just now stuck his head out and shouted, “Bro, I still want to find out the situation from you!”
Li Dian was suspicious, “What situation?”
“Damn the situation!” Liang Che turned pale from shock. He had gone against the heavenly network too many times, and at this sort of situations, he knew the heavenly network didn’t have anyone so silly, “Run!”
Liang Che wished that Lu Shu was right in front of him, so he could execute his mad revenge! He had escaped from the heavenly network after much difficulty but now, he had to face these guys again!
In reality, Liang Che was clear that these men of the heavenly network handpicked from the military were much tougher to deal with than those secret practitioners he had been dealing with all this while. Apart from having chemistry and being familiar with each other, even those inexperienced practitioners from this group had abilities that were hard to deal with!
But even before he ran for ten meters, Liang Che felt as if the natural elements of the world were changing drastically. He felt uncomfortable, there was actually someone within this group who was a metapractitioner, an awakened practitioner!
The grass beneath him suddenly grew rapidly and curled themselves around Li Dian and his feet, much like ropes. Li Dian fell to the floor almost immediately afterward.
Liang Che then used his skills softly. In an instant, numerous flaming birds flew out of his body, their extreme temperature ripping the grass apart. Following that, they surged towards those members of the heavenly network.
Liang Che today wasn’t someone to be trifled with!
Of course, when up against a group, Liang Che didn’t expect his flame birds to do significant damage. It was purely used as a tool to delay time.
He ran off without turning his head, while Li Dian shouted behind him, “Save me!”
But Liang Che didn’t plan on saving him at all. At this point, he had trouble even saving himself, go have fun with the heavenly network!
Within this half a year, had Liang Che displayed signs of weakness or faltered, he would’ve been caught by the heavenly network. It was impossible for Liang Che to sacrifice himself to save someone else!
Wait, something was not right?!
Li Dian was disappointed as he witnessed this sight, “Darn you!” He then turned around to the heavenly network and shouted, “He’s Liang Che! One of the fugitives that escaped from you heavenly network. He’s a class D fire manipulator!”
