Chen Yu: “…”

Bahuang Yi: “…”

Chen Yu: “This is my home.”

“Please put on some clothes in your home first.”

“Alright.”

Nodding, Chen Yu got off the bed, put on his coat, and fastened his belt.. “You can speak your mind. What do you think of my capital?”

Bahuang Yi lowered his head and thought seriously. “Maybe I should castrate you in advance.”

Chen Yu: “…Stop fooling around. Actually, it’s swollen. I was bitten by a snake during the elimination round.”

“My time is limited.” Bahuang Yi raised his head. “I don’t have time to chat with you.”

“I know. It’s not easy to break out of prison. We have to race against time.” Chen Yu walked to the sofa and sat down. He poured two cups of tea and handed one to the other. “Sit. Let’s have some first.”

Bahuang Yi was expressionless. “No.”

“I’ve always been conceited about my five senses. Even if the girl next door is taking a shower, I can tell that she’s not on her period.”

Chen Yu gulped down half a cup of tea. “But you sneaked into my room without anyone noticing. You really scared me. How did you do it?”

“I have something to talk to you about,” Bahuang Yi said.

“I know. Otherwise, would you still be looking for me to be gay? I’m just curious. The doors and windows aren’t open, and there’s no spatial fluctuation. How did you get in?”

Bahuang Yi did not have any intention of answering. He said to himself, “Don’t forget our previous agreement. I hope you can keep your promise and protect Bahuang Yao.”

Chen Yu asked, “How did you get in?”

Bahuang Yi said, “Protect Bahuang Yao well.”

Chen Yu asked, “How did you get in?”

Bahuang Yi said, “…Protect Bahuang Yao well.”

Chen Yu nodded. “How did you get in?”

“…” Bahuang Yi was silent for a moment. “I don’t want to tell you how I got in, but I can tell you how you died.”

“…Emmmmm, look at you. You’re getting impatient just from talking about it.” Chen Yu took a sip of tea in embarrassment. “It’s the same as your dead father.”

Bahuang Yi: “…”

“Alright, I promise. I swear on the lamp.”

Chen Yu raised his index and middle fingers, he aimed at the chandelier on the ceiling. “Not only on this lamp, I also swear on the lamp in the bathroom, the lamp in the kitchen, and the lamp in the corridor. I will definitely protect your sister, protect Bahuang Yao, and let her have a good life. I will even feed her from A to D, and finally to EFG… if I tell any lies, let me be struck! Aimed at my head and strike!”

Rumble!

Outside the window, an explosion reverberated.

The room buzzed…

Chen Yu: “…”

Bahuang Yi: “…”

Chen Yu: “Look at this, it fits the situation.”

“Should I trust you?” Bahuang Yi looked down at Chen Yu.

“I should. You can absolutely trust me, Chen Yu.” Patting his chest, Chen Yu changed the topic. “Let’s talk about the main topic. Is there no room for maneuver in your current trouble?”

“No.” Bahuang Yi pushed open the window and reached out to touch the rain outside. “This is good.”

“Will you die?”

“I hope so.”

“Then I can only wish your dream come true.”

“…”

“So…” Chen Yu looked Bahuang Yi up and down. “You took out your precious prison break time to find me just to give me a word?”

“Of course there are other things.”

“Then tell me.”

“No.” Bahuang Yi teleported in front of Chen Yu like a ghost. “This is not something that you say with your mouth.”

“Hmm?” Chen Yu instinctively sensed that something was wrong.

“It’s made with your hands.”

“You… What are you doing?”

“Martial Arts…” Bahuang Yi’s right palm was like lightning as he slammed it on Chen Yu’s abdomen. “Karma Secret Art — Psychic Lock of Dense Luck.”

Dong!

Purple clouds suddenly filled the surroundings.

Chen Yu widened his eyes, clutched his abdomen, and crouched down in pain. “Oh… What is this…”

“I will never trust anyone.”

Bahuang Yi took half a step back. His tone was calm. “Of course, I won’t trust you either. This is a martial art. It has also been added to Bahuang Yao’s body. When the two energy circuits are formed, your life will be connected to Bahuang Yao. As long as Bahuang Yao loses her life, you will die at the same time.”

“What the f*ck?” Chen Yu was shocked.

Whoosh —

The next moment.

The purple mist swirled and entered Chen Yu’s body.

[Special curse!]

[A, B are bound by Karma.]

[When ‘B’ dies, ‘A’ resurrects.]

[When ‘A’ dies, ‘B’ resurrects.]

Chen Yu: “…”

Bahuang Yi: “The circuit is formed. From now on, you and Bahuang Yao will have the same life.”

Chen Yu: “…”

“No matter which one of you dies, the other will die as well. This is very fair.”

Chen Yu: “…”

“Don’t blame me.” Bahuang Yi turned around and left. “Just as Gou Sheng said on the podium, all the gifts of fate have been secretly priced. Nothing is taken for free. It’s the same for everyone.”

Chen Yu: “…”

“Goodbye.”

With that, Bahuang Yi disappeared.

Like a wisp of smoke, he penetrated the wall and disappeared without a trace…

Chen Yu: “…”

He squatted on the spot.

He was stunned for a long time.

After the pain subsided, he slowly lifted his coat and checked the condition of his abdomen.

A small red lock had appeared above his navel.

The tattoo was exquisite, and it seemed to change color with Chen Yu’s breathing…

“So…”

“I have added a life now?”

Chen Yu stood up and looked in the direction where the Bahuang Yi could easily disappear. He did not know what to say at this moment.

“All the gifts of fate have been secretly priced.”

“But I seem to have been buying zero yuan…”

After a long silence, he sat down again and drank another cup of tea.

Rumble…

Outside the window, the sound of thunder was still continuing, and it was getting louder and louder.

In his confusion, the ground started to shake.

The chandelier was also shaking crazily.

Chen Yu quickly suppressed the wild thoughts in his mind. He stood up and looked out of the window, and his expression immediately changed.

Because the world outside the window was already a scene of doomsday!

Lightning with a diameter of more than 100 meters rolled down!

Street lamps, vegetation, tall buildings, and buildings… Were all hacked into powder and burned into charcoal.

The earth was also twisting and rising, spewing out pillars of fire made of lava…

“This…”

“This is too f*cking ridiculous…”

Chen Yu was completely dumbfounded. He could not believe what had happened.

He could only watch as the lightning and flames in the distance got closer and closer.

Closer and closer.

Closer and closer…

Boom!

Rumble…

…Buzz…

…Buzz.

Buzz, buzz, buzz…

‘The vibrations under me, they’re getting stronger.’

Chen Yu woke up from his sleep.

Slowly open his eyes, dull for a moment, he sat up suddenly, looking out of the window.

Outside the window, the thunderstorm was still.

There were no more thunder-and-fire doomsday scenarios.

“Was that… a dream?”

Buzz, buzz, buzz…

The shaking under his body continued.

Chen Yu came back to his senses. He got off the bed, opened the mattress, and took out the mask of the enforcer.

The red light on the mask meant that the higher-ups had an urgent mission.

Holding the mask in his hand, Chen Yu was silent for a moment. Then, he looked down at his abdomen.

The red lock tattoo was clearly visible…

“…Bahuang Yi.”

“It’s really the art of the gods and ghosts…”

Chen Yu took a deep breath to suppress the fear in his heart. He pulled the curtain tightly and brought the mask closer to his face.

Swoosh!

The mask automatically attached itself to his face and was attached tightly together.

[ID: C278]

[Identity: Law Enforcement Member]

[Status: Online]

Beep —

His boss’s angry shout immediately came into his ears.

“What took you so long? Are you in a cemetery?!”

Chen Yu: “I watched a love action movie for a while and just had some free time.”

“C278, my impression of you is getting worse and worse.”

Chen Yu: “It’s my honor.”

“…I’ll send you an email in a while and you forward the footage you saw to me.”

“Then what the hell are you thinking about? If I forward it to you, won’t you lock onto my identity?”

“Heh…”

Chen Yu: “Hehehe…”

Cut the crap. An urgent mission has arrived. Listen to my orders!”

“Yes.”

“Together with a few other Law Enforcement members under my command, we will hunt down an S-Rank wanted criminal. The information will be sent out in five seconds. We will act immediately!”

“Yes!”

The call ended.

Chen Yu wore a mask. As he changed his clothes, he waited for the mission information to be downloaded.

Three seconds later, there was a crisp ‘ding’ sound.

Rows of text messages and a positive photo of the wanted criminal appeared in his field of vision.

Chen Yu instantly felt as if he had been struck by lightning..

[Urgent mission: Pursue and Kill S-Rank wanted criminal – Duan Ye, regardless of life or death.]

[Wanted criminal information-]

[Name: Duan Ye]

[Identity: No. 2 Elite Class Monitor, Year 1, Beijing University]

[Strength: Level 2 Fighter]

[Crime: Killing the President of the Student Union of Beijing University, Bahuang Yi]

[Status: Escaping]

[Location of last sighting has been issued. Please track as soon as possible.]

[Mission is confidential, no one is allowed to know.]

[…]

Words, like flowing water.

But Chen Yu had already lost the ability to think.

He just stared blankly at the picture. His pupils dilated, then contracted, dilated, then contracted…

“…”

“…”

“…”

After an unknown amount of time.

The world in front of him, beside his ears, and between his nose finally returned to normal.

Chen Yu took off his mask, sat on the sofa, and quietly lit a cigarette.

“…”

“…Phew.”

After a long while, the cigarette burned out.

He put on his mask again, carried the BB motherboard and sword on his back, and finally put on a long robe. He teleported and appeared outside in a flash. With a few agile flashes, he jumped down from the bottom of the building.

Boom…

The thunderstorm was still falling.

But it was getting smaller and smaller.

Chen Yu’s state of mind was getting more and more complicated. He shuttled between buildings, pavilions, and trees. His speed also changed with his emotions.

In front of him, the description on the wanted notice had disappeared.

Instead, Duan Ye’s video was played.

Through the silent surveillance screen, one could clearly see Duan Ye’s murderous and resentful expression. He used the sharp tail of the Clear Sky Staff to pierce through Bahuang Yi’s chest.

Throughout the whole process, Bahuang Yi did not resist at all.

He just looked at Duan Ye calmly and slowly fell to the ground…

Di di di di!

Suddenly, a short message sounded.

The other Law Enforcement members who were chasing Duan Ye sent a location sharing message.

[Target found.]

[Attempting to intercept…]

[Already on the way.]

[Already on the way.]

[Already on the way.]

It was Chen Yu’s turn to send a status message. He faintly replied, “Since everyone has gone, it’s just a Level 2 martial artist. I’ll leave it to you guys.”

As he finished speaking, he closed the communication and took off his mask.

Rumble…

Lightning flashed, illuminating his face that had been washed away by the rain.

His eyes were filled with killing intent.

Crash.

He tore off his long robe, put away his mask, and casually threw it on the tree. Chen Yu slowly pulled out his long sword, and suddenly exploded with energy.

Then, he ran at full speed towards the position shared by his Law Enforcement teammates…

Some people liked the absurdity of being chased by rainy nights.

Some people liked the desolation of being abandoned by rainy nights.

Some people liked the coldness of being surrounded by rainy nights.

There were also people who liked the despair of being swallowed by rainy nights…

Chen Yu did not know which one he belonged to.

He preferred to treat rainy nights as a place where he could vent his emotions wantonly.

However, he had never tried it.

As for Duan Ye, he had tried it before…

Chen Yu stopped and looked at the few corpses on the street in a daze. “…Duan Ye.”

Upon hearing that, Duan Ye, who was gasping for breath, froze. He slowly turned around and looked at Chen Yu.

“Duan Ye.”

“…Brother Yu…”

“You killed Bahuang Yi?”

“…”

“I asked, you killed Bahuang Yi?” Chen Yu repeated.

“Brother Yu… How did you know? And how did you find me?”

Standing up, Duan Ye held the Martial Arts Holy Book in his left hand and the Clear Sky Staff in his right hand with a complicated expression. “It’s only been ten minutes. The news can’t have spread so fast.”

“You killed Bahuang Yi?” Chen Yu repeated.

“…Yes.”

“You should have a better solution.”

“No.”

“Yes.”

“No.”

Duan Ye turned his head and wiped the blood on his face with his shoulder. “This is what I want to do the most. To personally avenge my family and the hundreds of thousands of people in He City.”

“…Then what should you do? Have you thought about the consequences?”

“I don’t care. At most, I’ll just die. I’ll go find my mother.”

The rain washed away the blood on the ground.

The two of them looked at each other and were silent for ten seconds.

Chen Yu said, “You already knew that Bahuang Yi was the murderer, right?”

“No.” Duan Ye’s eyes flickered. “Did you already know?”

“…Neither did I.”

“So, we can only thank the Fair Association for giving me a clear target.”

“…”

“…”

The two of them looked at each other and were silent for ten seconds again.

“Brother Yu.”

“Speak.”

“Are you the same as them? Are you here to catch me?”

Chen Yu put away his long sword. “No.”

“Then I’m relieved. After all, you know my intelligence very well. It’s much harder to deal with than these Law Enforcers.” Nodding his head, Duan Ye stiffly turned around and left. “I’m leaving.”

“…”

Looking at Duan Ye’s thin and getting smaller and smaller back, Chen Yu’s eyes blurred in the rainstorm.

“Duan Ye…”

“Ah.” Duan Ye stopped.

“How can we contact you if you’re gone?”

Duan Ye pursed his lips. “Of course I’ll call.”

“…Okay, you call.” Chen Yu raised his hand and waved it gently. “If I call you, remember to pick up.”

“Okay.”

He also raised his hand and shook it at Chen Yu. Duan Ye continued to move his legs.

“Duan Ye!”

“What’s wrong with you now?” Duan Ye stopped and turned around to look at Chen Yu.

Even though his blurry vision couldn’t see anything.

Chen Yu said, “Are you really leaving?”

Duan Ye said, “Yes.”

Chen Yu said, “Can you not leave?”

Duan Ye said, “Not leaving? If I’m not leaving, can you protect me?”

“…”

“…”

“I’ll protect you.”

“…” Duan Ye laughed. “Protect yourself first.”

After saying that, he did not look back and left directly. He was willing to be swallowed in the cold and darkness.

All that was left was the vaguely echoing familiar song…

“Years turn what you have into loss.”

“Tired eyes with hope…”

Chen Yu clasped his hands together and said loudly, “Today is only a remnant of my body, welcoming the glorious years.”

“Holding on to freedom in the wind and rain.”

“After a lifetime of struggle and hesitation…”

“Confidence can change the future.”

“Ask, who can do it?”

“Whoa, oh, oh!”

“Today, there is only a remnant of my body, welcoming the glorious years.”

“Ask, who can do it…”

Half an hour later.

Wu —

Wu, wu, wu —

A shrill alarm sounded throughout the city.

A mushroom cloud used as a warning exploded above the city!

In the west of the city.

The Beast Tide.

It had officially arrived…
