After five bigwigs in Beijing's elite circle fell into their trap, I fled.

Chapter 238 Shura Field

The bizarre phenomenon in the Devil's Triangle that day shocked countless people.

A strange blue phantom appeared in the sky, within which menacing red cracks swirled. Hundreds of fighter jets circled overhead, and countless firepower bombarded a single point on the ground, unleashing wave after wave of ferocious attacks. The unique magnetic field of the Devil's Triangle made the entire situation even more perplexing.

On the ground, a fierce battle that was difficult for outsiders to witness reached a stalemate.

Under Rong Jingchen's command, countless top mercenaries and new firepower targeted a reef in the sea. On the reef, two figures, like phantoms and wisps of mist, were entangled and fighting each other. Their blades, like bloodthirsty demons, relentlessly and ruthlessly reaped all their enemies...

Half an hour later, the intense battle and extreme weather intertwined, and a fierce storm began to sweep across the previously calm sea. Several warships were swallowed up one after another on the sea.

Ning Yunzhan, his figure ghostly, hovered above the waves, silently staring at Li Yubai, who was covered in blood.

The threat from high-altitude fighter jets and ground-based sniping fire had actually decreased, so Ning Yunzhan didn't seem to care. He simply wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and looked at Li Yubai with a hint of confusion in his eyes.
"What price did you pay to save her back then? In today's battle, your cultivation is less than one-hundredth of what it used to be, making you practically a cripple. Any random junior member of the vampire clan is stronger than you..."

Li Yubai maintained his calm and composed expression, remaining silent as he slowly removed his blood-stained coat, leaving behind a blood-stained embroidered shirt.

That was a pattern that the young lady had personally embroidered when he was with her. It was ugly, but the former master, who was riding high at the time, flaunted it subtly throughout the clan for a whole month. Even Ning Yunzhan, a cunning and lurking figure, had seen it more than once...

"It seems you also foresaw today's ending." Ning Yunzhan slightly opened his palm, and the sharp blade light began to materialize in his palm. Above the sea, there was a strange and distant buzzing sound, as mournful as the wailing of a hundred ghosts.

"My power has indeed diminished greatly, but if I fight to the death, I might still have a chance." Li Yu glanced tenderly at the embroidery on his clothes, looking utterly disheveled yet as calm as a chess player. "Ning Yunzhan, no matter how things end today, you are destined not to have her. Do you believe that?"

"Besides you, who else has the ability to compete with me? Rong Jingchen or that sickly Feng Li?" Ning Yunzhan sighed softly, his usually gentle eyes now colder than a glacier.

There's a saying that's popular in China.

"what?"

"The destructive power of a deceased white moonlight..." Li Yubai paused for a moment, "is more terrifying than any chasm."

"White moonlight?" Ning Yunzhan smiled. "She has forgotten the past. You and I are just clients in her heart now. What kind of white moonlight can you be?"

Li Yubai smiled gently: "If I die, I will become that moonlight."

“Playing tricks.” Ning Yunzhan’s fingers twitched slightly, and the butcher’s knife flashed like lightning between him and Li Yubai, as if the sky had been split in two, one half human world and the other half hell.

In Li Yubai's pupils, tens of thousands of undead spirits surged forth!

The outer edge of the Devil's Triangle.

Jiang Shu and Yan Yu stared at the thick sea fog before them, their expressions grim.

Within the sea fog, it resembled a giant strangulation vortex, with fighter jets and ground firepower intertwined. Only countless golden streaks of light could be seen exploding everywhere, with hurricanes and surging tides, but no human figures could be seen at all.

Jiang Shu took a deep breath, picked up her phone, and started calling the rescue team. However, due to the severe weather, the rescue team stopped abruptly several miles away, leaving Jiang Shu with only a helpless statement before turning back. Seeing Jiang Shu's pale face, Yan Yu tried to comfort her, "Sister, they're all sensible people. Maybe they would have gone back already if they'd seen the weather was bad. Why don't we go back to the hotel and look for them?"

Jiang Shu looked at the fighter jets, their shadowy forms amidst the blood-red flashes of blades, hidden within the clouds and said, "This isn't some natural disaster; it's clearly a bunch of bastards fighting each other."

Yan Yu was at a loss for words.

Jiang Shu stared intently at the chaotic scene before her, her mind slowly recalling the various strange things the men in her family had done lately, and gradually a guess began to form in her mind:

"They had a conflict? And a conflict that required violence to resolve?"

Yan Yu didn't know much, and could only helplessly reply, "Sister, I don't know anything about it."

Yan Yu spends most of his time on set and at the studio. Jiang Shu nodded knowingly, her gaze returning to the sky: "I remember, only Ali in the world has such a large-scale private fighter jet fleet?"

Yan Yu remained silent for a few seconds, then nodded with a forced smile.

Jiang Shu closed her eyes and slowly rolled up her sleeves.

Yan Yu froze, her voice slightly panicked, and she couldn't help but grab Jiang Shu's arm: "Sister, what do you want to do?"

Jiang Shu looked at the unknown sea ahead, which resembled hell:

"I want to go in."

China. Cloud Group Headquarters, Chairman's Office.

A few days ago, the entire headquarters of Yunduan was inexplicably placed under the control of a certain department. After routine questioning, all irrelevant personnel were evacuated from the building.

Inside the office, Nie Zheng, his face frosty, listened to his subordinate's report:
"After checking the financial and tax aspects of Yunduan, no problems were found. We also investigated Ning Yunzhan's social relationships. He only had casual acquaintances with the people around him. Apart from work-related interactions, he had almost no personal relationships. However, he seemed to treat Li Yubai differently."

Nie Zheng: "Unique?"

The subordinate brought over a stack of personnel files: "These were found in the office's file library. They contain Ning Yunzhan's client information over the years, except for Li Yubai's, which is encrypted separately and stored in his private safe."

Nie Zheng picked up the top document containing Li Yubai's information. Unlike other client documents, this document only briefly mentioned Li Yubai in relation to the project. Instead, it contained more photos of Li Yubai in various settings, including online images, photos that appeared to have been taken by a private investigator, and even sketches with a distinct Ning Yunzhan style. The small print next to each file indicated the date and Li Yubai's itinerary for that day.

The last dozen or so pages are the itinerary tracks for each year. The first track map, marked with a date from nineteen years ago, has a circle around 'Li Yubai stayed in Xinghua Village for several months'. Then comes the last track map, which shows a cold, smiling face drawn in Li Yubai's chairman's office.

“He must be looking for something or someone through Li Yubai.” Nie Zheng looked at the last smiling face with its rich ink, “and a year ago, he found it in Li Yubai’s office.”

The subordinate then produced another hard drive: "In addition, we found this hard drive in Ning Yunzhan's safe. It was in a very nice box, so it must be something very important to him."

Nie Zheng turned on the large screen computer on the wall of his office: "Read."
