High above in the sky, a helicopter bearing the symbol of the Kandergeer family soared through the air.
Sitting inside were Ye Qiu and Caroline.
Gazing at the scenery from above, a smile hung on Ye Qiu’s lips. Edith had finally agreed; five Primordial Pills, capable of creating five mythic realm powerhouses—such temptation was not insignificant to Edith.
"How are you doing? Are you getting used to it?" Ye Qiu asked Caroline with concern, worried she might feel unwell.
Caroline nodded. Seeing the fatigue in her eyes, Ye Qiu suggested she rest a while. With the helicopter’s speed, it wouldn’t be long before they reached China.
Caroline gradually fell into slumber while Ye Qiu remained vigilant, not relaxing in the slightest.
Five hours later, Ye Qiu relaxed slightly. They were halfway to China, and there should be no danger now. If sothing were to happen, it would have already appeared.
Ye Qiu closed his eyes, maintaining a sliver of alertness.
Just as Ye Qiu was drifting off, he suddenly opened his eyes widely, every hair on his body standing on end.
Danger!
A sense of peril was swiftly approaching.
As Ye Qiu probed for the source of danger, a black beam of light sliced through the sky. Slowing it down would reveal it to be a technological missile, now locked onto the helicopter carrying Ye Qiu.
It intended to blast the helicopter apart.
Whish!
The speed was incredible. From the mont Ye Qiu awoke on alert to when the missile struck the helicopter, it was rely a matter of a couple of breaths.
Suddenly, there was a thunderous explosion in the sky; the helicopter burst into flas instantly, with smoke and debris billowing as it exploded, the wreckage plumting downwards.
While the Kandergeer family and Edith felt happy about seeing Ye Qiu off and receiving five Primordial Pills, a confidant suddenly rushed in, reporting that their family helicopter had been bombed. Edith was taken aback by this revelation.
That ant Ye Qiu had gone down with it?
Edith’s expression changed. Who could have bombed the helicopter? Such power did not belong to any ordinary person. Could it be the doing of certain nations?
He couldn’t understand. It was, after all, the Kandergeer family’s helicopter. Was the target Ye Qiu, or was it their family?
"If it’s because of Ye Qiu, then fine. If it’s targeting the Kandergeer family, the issue is grave." Unable to determine who made the move, Edith pondered the mastermind behind it.
Logically, since he had agreed to let Ye Qiu and Caroline leave, directly returning to China, only he should have known. But why was the helicopter bombed halfway through? It wasn’t so simple.
"The helicopter got bombed, Ye Qiu probably didn’t make it, and pity that Italian princess, also perished among them." Edith furrowed his brows, fearing the incident might attract bla from the Italian royal family.
"Investigate, whether Mr. Ye is alive or dead, and the bomber, they cannot be ignored." Edith wanted to know who knew Ye Qiu and Caroline were on their aircraft and launched the attack.
For the Kandergeer family, investigating matters wasn’t challenging, especially in the case of an attack on the scale of helicopter bombing.
They soon identified the attack as originating from near the Golden Triangle.
"The Golden Triangle?" Edith was sowhat surprised. This place was notably unstable, often chaotic. There were too many forces gathered there, all of them desperate individuals.
Even the Kandergeer family didn’t wish to engage with the powers in this area.
"Alright, I understand. Continue investigating whether anyone survived in the helicopter." Edith, having identified the assailants, realized they weren’t easy to deal with, so he no longer pursued the matter deeply. However, he really wanted to confirm if Ye Qiu survived.
According to incoming reports, the helicopter was instantly blown to pieces; survival seed impossible.
But Ye Qiu was different; he was a martial artist of mystical ans. The Kandergeer family had suffered at his hands multiple tis, and the current standard was to assu Ye Qiu wouldn’t die easily.
The subordinates continued their investigation, while now, three hundred nautical miles from the wreckage, Ye Qiu was racing across the ocean, holding Caroline.
Whish whish whish...
The sea’s surface was graced by a shower of waves, and behind Ye Qiu, several n in white swiftly pursued him.
"Is this the world’s number one expert? Not so impressive." One of them spoke, his words reaching Ye Qiu’s ears clearly.
"Sensed danger and avoided it, luckily we acted personally, otherwise the missile alone couldn’t kill him." Another agreed.
The two were close behind Ye Qiu, evidently locked onto him.
Caroline, held in his arms, was not in good condition. Although Ye Qiu had anticipated and leaped from the helicopter, he was still affected by the bomb’s shockwaves.
To protect Caroline, Ye Qiu shielded her from nurous shrapnel with his back, shards still embedded in his flesh, yet Ye Qiu didn’t mind them, they wouldn’t kill him.
What Ye Qiu feared was the child in Caroline’s belly.
Moreover, beyond Caroline’s current state, several mysterious powerhouses trailed behind, likely here to counter if the missile failed, ensuring his complete eradication.
Who were these people? Ye Qiu had no heart to find out now, nor did he want to confront them. All he desired was to locate a relatively safe location, set Caroline down, and then deal with those persistently pursuing him.
Ye Qiu was fast, treading the water as if on solid ground, and after speeding ahead with Caroline for over six hundred nautical miles, he found a small island.
Ye Qiu’s eyes lit up as he headed straight for the island.
The white-clad n behind him smiled faintly, saying, "Not a bad grave you’ve found yourself."
"Let’s go, we’ve given him enough ti; let’s settle this, or God will be angry."
All three n bore a smirk as they set foot on the island.
Ye Qiu laid Caroline down not far away, and for her safety, he quickly deployed a formation using nurous Crystal Stones, concealing their presence.
To prevent the n from using Caroline as leverage against him.
Ye Qiu stood on the beach, facing the three as they approached. The trio, dressed in white, wielded spears, and sat atop fine, majestic horses, different from ordinary breeds.
Such attire resembled that of knights on a battlefield.
"You were waiting for us?" one among them spoke, observing Ye Qiu’s calm deanor.
Ye Qiu replied simply, without expression, "Was it you involved in the helicopter’s bombing?"
"Haha, that was just a welco gift. To kill you, we’ll do it ourselves."
"Who made you disrespect God? Today we step in on His behalf to teach you, the world’s number one expert, a lesson. Wonder, faced with our actions, how many moves you can withstand."
Ye Qiu’s gaze flickered. God? So these people were God’s followers.
"So, re lackeys of others. With you few, I could destroy you all with one hand!" Ye Qiu’s tone carried killing intent. This God, previously involved in Pom’s mind, inexplicably opposed him. Now appearing again, nearly harming Caroline, if sothing happened to her...
The more Ye Qiu thought, the angrier he beca. This God was truly taking things too far!
