Chapter 188 Even Professors Confess (34)

The three people moved rapidly inside the secret passage. Perhaps Sally's disappearance had been discovered, or perhaps the three corpses had been found. Suddenly, many people appeared inside the secret passage to hunt them down.

They were attacked from both sides, and people would occasionally pop out from other intersections.

After taking care of another group of people, Xi Huai lowered his eyes and deftly changed the magazine.

These were the last few bullets, found on the body of the person chasing us.

Yu Ci frowned: "You carry her, I'll clear the way."

At this moment, Chang Le relied solely on Yu Ci. Looking at the man, she trembled and, unusually, uttered words of refusal: "No, no need, I can manage, I can walk by myself..."

Having just experienced what happened, Chang Le has a strong aversion to men.

Yu Ci gently held the struggling child in her arms: "It's okay, you don't have your glasses, don't get down."

The speed of moving forward will slow down when going down.

"..." Xi Huai glanced indifferently at the interaction between the two and continued to clear the way.

The situation inside the secret passage was worse than expected.

The omnipresent underground mines, the manic residents ready to fire at any moment, and the dense network of intersections make it a place where you might stumble upon love at any moment.

Ten minutes later, Xi Huai had taken dozens of lives. He was running out of bullets, and his dagger was covered in blood.

The once clean and elegant white shirt was now stained with bright red blood, and his handsome face was inevitably stained with specks of blood.

The man now stood calmly in front of the two, his refined elegance gone, replaced by a chilling and indifferent aura.

"We've arrived," came the faint, hoarse voice.

The exit was found, and Xi Huai pushed open the door first. Inside was a dimly lit room, and the group went in.

The next second, Ling Feng suddenly arrived, and Xi Huai dodged to the side. A large black shadow suddenly darted out and pounced over!
Xi Huai reacted quickly, using the force of the kick to deliver a side kick. The sound of force colliding violently with flesh was deafening. The person who kicked him let out a muffled groan and was kicked back several meters before stopping, panting heavily.

The visitor is ill-intentioned—Yu Ci and Xi Huai's thoughts are perfectly in sync.

The dim lighting inside affected Yu Ci's visibility, but she could see very clearly that it was a burly foreign man wearing combat camouflage, with huge, bulging muscles and a scruffy beard.

He held the dagger in reverse, blocking in front of him, his posture was very standard.

After fighting our way through, a regular army suddenly appeared.

“Mercenaries,” Yu Ci reminded Xi Huai.

Those blocking the road are most likely lackeys of that group.

Xi Huai closed his eyes slightly, using the faint light coming in from outside to pinpoint the burly man's location.

The burly man chuckled and flicked his wrist: "It's a familiar force, X."

Yu Ci frowned. Over there, Xi Huai looked at him calmly and said in a hoarse voice, "Yax, I warned you."

Okay, this is another plot point not mentioned in the original work.

Yu Ci was helpless.

Footsteps approached from the secret passage. Yu Ci thought that she couldn't go in to clear out the enemy and leave Chang Le alone here, so she moved the sofa over to block the door of the secret passage.

Over there, two figures were still facing off.

"Warning? Ah..."

As if reflecting on the past, "Don't work for criminal groups, don't make dirty money..."

Yax scoffed, "What's the use, X? I'm not like you, a jungler who's been number one on the leaderboard for years, pocketing tens of millions in bounties."

"Following them is so much easier; it's so much better than our lives back then."

"Now, all I dream about are women, fine wine, money, money! Money!! Hahahaha!"

Yax smiled, looking at the group with a dark expression. He slowly asked in broken Chinese, "After all these years, what faction are you loyal to?"

He paused, looked at the disguised face, and sneered, "Why can't you even show your face to anyone? Hey, is it still the same pretty boy you used to be?" Xi Huai replied in a hoarse voice, "I don't have a penchant for reminiscing."

"Okay, okay." Yax smiled and glanced at the two women beside him. "Back when we were boxing, I wasn't as good as you. Now, let's have another match."

"You win. I'll pretend I didn't see you."

"If you lose, you leave your life behind."

Yax twirled the dagger and chuckled, "Three heads, and I can make a lot of money."

When old stories were brought up at an inopportune time, Xi Huai frowned slightly, and his eyes turned cold.

"can."

The simple room became a temporary octagonal cage for the two of them. Yu Ci led Chang Le to a corner to sit down. The secret passage door made a clanging sound, and the sofa didn't look like it could hold out for long.

"What will happen to them?" Chang Le leaned close to the woman beside her, squinting as she tried to see the battle situation clearly.

Yu Ci: "It's a duel, one of us survives."

Such easy words! Chang Le stared wide-eyed at the completely indifferent woman.

She remained calm, seemingly unconcerned that the secret passage door was about to be smashed open, and believed that the man known as X would never lose.

But the mercenary on the other side was huge; even with blurry vision, I could feel his well-developed muscles, like a large brown bear standing up. Compared to him, the man seemed...

"Just watch," a languid female voice said slowly, "You won't lose by a hair's breadth."

Just as the woman had said, the battle was one-sided from the very beginning.

"Bang!!"—The sound of a heavy object hitting the ground.

Dust billowed up, swirling in the dim beam of light.

Yax struggled to his feet from the broken table, swaying as he wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. He found he couldn't wipe it clean, and when he touched it, he realized it was from the head where he had been split open.

He looked at his hands covered in blood and chuckled softly:
"You really haven't changed at all. You look so delicate, how come you're so strong..."

Not far away, Xi Huai stood in the darkness, his collar slightly open to reveal his collarbone, the veins on his arms bulging as his sleeves were rolled up, and his large hands hanging casually at his sides, dripping blood continuously.

His tall and slender figure, just standing there, was a silent deterrent.

Yax forcefully wiped away the blood that kept spilling from the corner of his mouth, his eyes turning sinister as he assumed a punching stance: "Again!"

The two then engaged in a fierce fight.

Chang Le looked on with a tense expression, while Yu Ci was relatively more relaxed.

She knew Xi Huai's strength all too well.

Sure enough, after only three rounds, one was clumsy and numb, while the other was in complete control. Soon, Yax was punched in the face again and instantly fell to the ground.

"Cough, cough cough..." His right eye could barely open, and the wound at the corner of his mouth had been completely torn open. Yax spat out a mouthful of bloody saliva and found two knocked-out teeth inside.

He was taken aback for a moment, then burst into laughter.

"You won again..."

"Damn it, what did they eat to grow up like that..."

Without even breaking a sweat, Xi Huai grabbed a sofa cover from the side and wiped the blood off his hands. He glanced indifferently at Yax, who was still ranting on the ground, and then drew his dagger.

Yax naturally saw Xi Huai's actions. He laughed, swaying as he struggled to his feet, his eyes uneven in size: "Damn it, you really want to kill me that badly?"

Upon hearing this, Xi Huai didn't even lift his eyelids: "Likewise."

Yax laughed maniacally, nodded, and the next second, he pulled out an old-fashioned pull-out grenade from who-knows-where and hurled it at Yu Ci and the other person!
The secret passage door was simultaneously smashed open, and the menacing crowd was about to pour in. Yu Ci quickly got up and used the force to kick the grenade in mid-air directly to the entrance of the secret passage.

The person who inexplicably got hit by a grenade as soon as they appeared: "?"

"!! Damn it!"

"Bang!!!--"
