Chapter 222 – Crossing Hands

　　Lin Qiye and Mu Mu leapt into the sewers, the dark and damp environment made Lin Qiye frown, and the few rats that scurried by from time to time next to them made squeaking noises that echoed in the small space.

　　Lin Qiye narrowed his eyes and gazed at the rats, if nothing else, the other party should have the ability to manipulate the rats, meaning that they might have been exposed when they entered the sewers.

　　But this wasn’t a big deal, since the other party chose to enter the sewer system from here, it meant that his hiding place must be very close to here, plus the other party would need to bring a corpse with him if he shifted, Lin Qiye was certain that he could catch up with the other party before he left.

　　Lin Qiye carried Mu Mu on his back, his spiritual perception extended to the extreme, and his entire body shuttled between the waterways like a phantom, extremely fast.

　　Meanwhile, in the underground cavity.

　　The teenager who was contemplating on the three corpses seemed to have sensed something and froze slightly, looking in a certain direction in surprise.

　　He actually found his way here? Should I say it’s not worthy of him?…… He thought for a moment, took off the white coat on his body, draped the black trench coat on the side, covered his face with a wide hood, and shrouded his entire person in shadow, turning around and walking towards the outside of the hollow.

　　It seemed that this time, it was mostly impossible to hide.

　　He looked back at the formalin specimens that filled the cave, as well as the operating table, and the thick research materials on the stone table next to it, and sighed helplessly.

　　The further he went, the more rats there were in the cave.

　　At first there were only a few, then a dozen, then dozens …… Now, the narrow waterway in front of Lin Qiye was almost covered with rats, and there wasn’t even a place to get down.

　　He knew that he was on the right track.

　　Mu Mu. Lin Qiye looked at the tide of rats in front of him and calmly spoke.

　　Hey shoo-!

　　The bandage on the right hand of Mu Mu on his back loosened, revealing a shiny barrel, and a piercing flash of fire spewed out in a flash, directly drowning out the rats in front of him.

　　Lin Qiye’s figure swayed and continued to charge forward.

　　With Mu Mu as a mobile arsenal, the rats simply couldn’t stop Lin Qiye’s pace, they were like mobile humanoid turrets, all the way to fire with explosions, charging forward in a brutal and unreasonable manner.

　　After a few minutes, Lin Qiye suddenly stopped.

　　Starting from a certain node, the rats that were originally spread throughout the sewers all disappeared, as if they had fled en masse, and the entire sewer was plunged into a dead silence.

　　He stopped because in the darkness ahead, there was a man standing.

　　His physique wasn’t strong, it could even be said that he was a bit skinny, his black hood covered his face, and at this moment, standing on the dark side, his body revealed a mysterious aura.

　　Lin Qiye narrowed his eyes, found you ……

　　The silhouette didn’t speak, but in the next moment, the ground under Lin Qiye’s feet suddenly exploded, and thick white vines were like flexible wrists that grabbed at Lin Qiye’s body like lightning!

　　At the same time, an extreme ice cold escaped and the surrounding water froze in an instant!

　　Lin Qiye only felt his body’s movements lag under the influence of this icy cold, but immediately after, a touch of extreme darkness spread out with him as the center, instantly enveloping those wielding vines.

　　Under the influence of the supreme darkness erosion, the speed of the white vines instantly slowed down, and right at this moment, the mumu behind Lin Qiye’s back swelled up, and two more barrels extended out, sending a blast at the vines at his feet!

　　Boom-!

　　Piercing flames bloomed in the dimly lit sewers, masonry and vine limbs mixed together and splashed in all directions, in the thick smoke and dust, the mumu that was protecting Lin Qiye after its giganticization changed back to its original size, followed by a black shadow flashing out of the smoke and dust in a hurry.

　　Lin Qiye ran while pressing his hands in the void on both sides, a splendid magic formation opened up, his palms probed into it and pulled out two straight swords!

　　One was his and the other was Zhao Kongcheng’s.

　　Lin Qiye had come alone to track down the secret thieves, so naturally he couldn’t be unprepared, but carrying those two black boxes at all times was too much of a hassle, so he drew designated summoning magic on the star knives, so that as long as he didn’t go outside of Cangnan City, he would be able to summon these two knives at any time.

　　Witnessing Lin Qiye’s hand drawing the swords in the void, the figure was visibly stunned before reaching out and probing into a pool of water to the side, icing out a frosty longsword that was dripping with cold air.

　　Just as the long sword entered his hand, Lin Qiye’s figure arrived in front of him.

　　The dual swords left a residual shadow in the air and chopped out in an instant, but the figure’s reaction speed wasn’t slow as well, lightning-like, he crossed the frost longsword in front of his chest and collided with the dual swords!

　　Clang-!

　　That silhouette only felt a huge force coming from the swords, and his entire body was sent flying backwards by the slashes, staggering back several steps before stabilizing himself, his eyes filled with surprise.

　　I fused the power organization of both the Nandu Snake Demon and the Murderer Ghost, but I can’t even compare to him? Just what kind of demon is it …… He muttered in a voice that only he could hear.

　　He shook his head and flicked his palm at the water next to him, and dozens of ice spikes precipitated out of the water and shot at Lin Qiye at a speed no less than a bullet!

　　Lin Qiye glanced at them indifferently, his speed did not slow down in the slightest, as if he completely ignored them, and by the moment the ice spikes entered the darkness around him, it was as if they were frozen in the darkness, not allowed to survive the slightest bit.

　　Lin Qiye let out a cold snort, and the ice spikes suspended in the midst of the Most Dark Divine Ruins instantly burst into pieces!

　　How many forbidden ruins did he have? The doubts in that silhouette’s heart intensified.

　　The scattered broken ice slowly drifted down, and Lin Qiye’s figure crashed through the ice fog, breaking through to the silhouette’s face once again as his dual swords chopped out once more!

　　The difference was that this time, the silhouette didn’t choose to defend and seemed to allow the two knives to chop at his body while the frosty longsword in his hand stabbed out, aiming straight for Lin Qiye’s neck!

　　Lin Qiye’s pupils suddenly contracted as his left hand blade gave up its offense and lightning-like blocked the frost longsword, while his right hand blade heavily chopped at the person’s chest!

　　Puff-!

　　Blood splattered everywhere, a hideous slash mark instantly surfaced on that silhouette’s chest, he looked down at the wound without the slightest bit of pain in his eyes, instead, he shook his head regretfully.

　　He took a few steps back and pulled away from Lin Qiye.

　　This time, Lin Qiye didn’t continue to attack, but instead just stood in place, quietly looking at the other party.

　　I thought that even if I couldn’t beat you, I should have been able to tie, but I didn’t expect to actually be beaten so badly …… The injuries on the man’s chest healed at an astonishing speed, but in a few seconds of work, the hideous slash marks were only left as a red mark.

　　Super speed regeneration?

　　Lin Qiye saw this scene, and surprise surfaced in his eyes.

　　That person gently removed her hood, revealing that quiet and fair face, a pair of eyes gazing at Lin Qiye as if she was looking at a rare animal, full of curiosity and excitement, and

　　Long time no see, Lin Qiye.
