Yang Shan incessantly issued a series of navigation clues, and soon, the Humr drove up to a large cluster of factory buildings, slowly coming to a stop at the entrance.
"Look quick! That’s Xiaong’s handbag."
Bai Wenrou imdiately noticed a red bag discarded at the entrance of the chicken farm, and quickly got out of the car to approach it.
Picking up the handbag, her gaze sharply turned towards the interior of the factory building, her expression grave as she said, "It seems we’re in the right place! Since Xiaong’s bag is here, she must definitely be inside the factory."
As she spoke, Bai Wenrou handed the handbag to Yang Shan, who had followed her, and then drew her gun, carefully entering the factory with a wary expression on her face.
Ye Xuan, trailing behind her, appeared quite nonchalant, showing no sign of caution as he strode impulsively into the building.
"Ye Xuan, what are you doing...?"
Bai Wenrou’s face changed as she was just about to stop Ye Xuan, intending to instruct him to follow orders because rushing in recklessly would be very dangerous.
But Ye Xuan didn’t heed her, and as soon as he entered the factory, he headed straight for the room with the entrance to the basent, quickly disappearing from sight!
He had already activated his X-ray vision and located Sun Xiaong’s current position; naturally, he wouldn’t waste unnecessary ti, as rescuing her was imperative.
anwhile.
The Ice Demon old man in the basent was completely unaware that the man he feared most was right at his doorstep!
He was busy concocting various chemical mixtures, and after a while at the stone table, he finally produced a bottle of gray-brown liquid.
This was a catalyst, intended to feed the Poisonous Insect to rapidly enhance its abilities, allowing it to devour human vitality in a very short ti, greatly improving the efficiency of the Poisonous Insect in converting Vitality, and maximizing the utilization of the devoured Life Energy without wasting an iota.
With the concocted mixture in hand, the Ice Demon old man went to another counter, on which there was only a black wooden box with no other bottles or jars.
He solemnly opened the lid of the wooden box, inside which was a semi-translucent insect, appearing like a cicada pupa, curled up within the box.
At that mont, the Ice Demon old man, holding a small porcelain bottle, carefully dripped the catalyst into the wooden box to feed the Poisonous Insect.
After ingesting the catalyst, the Poisonous Insect’s body size imdiately increased significantly, its previously curled body stretching out, emitting a shimring white glow.
Its body also changed from the previous semi-translucent state to a milky white color, taking on even more of an insect’s form.
"Hehe, after devouring the girl’s Vitality, my injuries will recover up to seventy percent, and I’ll be able to leave this damned place and go find other young girls!"
Seeing this scene, the Ice Demon old man let out a sinister laugh, a look of satisfaction crossing his aged face.
Then, he stifled his laughter, took a deep breath, and with care, grasped the Poisonous Insect from the wooden box and turned to walk toward the bed.
With his other hand, he propped up the unconscious Sun Xiaong, a flash of excitent crossing his withered visage, about to feed the Poisonous Insect into Sun Xiaong’s mouth.
Bang!
Just then, a loud boom ca from the direction of the basent entrance.
That modest wooden bed, originally ant to avert detection, was violently smashed apart; the whole bed shattered into countless planks, scattering in all directions, revealing the entrance below.
Imdiately after, a figure rapidly leaped down from above, landing firmly inside the basent!
The Ice Demon old man’s face suddenly contorted as he quickly looked toward the direction of the figure, and upon seeing the face of the intruder, his heart pounded with terror.
"It’s you!"
Looking at Ye Xuan appearing before him, the Ice Demon Old Man’s pupils contracted to pinpricks, and his soul was frightened to its core.
How did this damned brat find this place?
"Old fool! Didn’t expect to see you again, did you? Last ti I didn’t beat you to death, and you’re out causing trouble again!"
Ye Xuan stood proudly in place like a Heavenly God descending, his gaze ice-cold as he stared at the Ice Demon Old Man.
"You... Kid, how did you find this place?"
The Ice Demon Old Man’s face darkened, his eyes flickered uncertainly, and a wild guess surged in his heart—he had been betrayed!
And the person who betrayed him was very likely his foster son Gui Qi! Only Gui Qi knew this location, and he was the only one who had been here just now. If it wasn’t for him leading the other party here, how could Ye Xuan have found such a hidden spot?
"That question, you might as well go down and ask King Yan, he’ll give you a satisfactory answer," Ye Xuan said indifferently.
As his words fell, he suddenly leaped forward, launching an attack directly at the Ice Demon Old Man.
Seeing Ye Xuan start off with an attack, the Ice Demon Old Man was startled!
Not even at his peak had he been a match for Ye Xuan, and now with his injuries not yet healed, if he were to clash with Ye Xuan, he might really et his end today.
"Stop right there!"
The Ice Demon Old Man’s eyes shot out a fierce light, and he roared angrily, suddenly gripping Sun Xiaong’s throat threateningly:
"Take one more step and see if I don’t send this girl to die right now."
Ye Xuan frowned; although he didn’t have much to do with Sun Xiaong, he didn’t want to see her lose her life because of him!
After all, this was his grudge with the Ice Demon Old Man, and several innocent girls had already been implicated. He didn’t want to drag soone else into it.
"Old fool, seems like you can only play this trick, using a girl as a threat. You’ve lived all these years only to act like a dog."
Ye Xuan stopped in his tracks, sneered at the Ice Demon Old Man, his voice full of disdain.
As if not hearing Ye Xuan’s taunting tone, the Ice Demon Old Man breathed a slight sigh of relief when the latter stopped. Then his face twisted into a grimace.
Although he couldn’t beat Ye Xuan, as long as he held Sun Xiaong hostage, the kid wouldn’t dare act rashly! And with this trump card in hand, he might have a chance to escape.
Once he recovered from his injuries, he would definitely unleash a frenzied revenge, completely washing away the humiliation brought to him by the other party!
And as the two were in a standoff, Bai Wenrou and Wei Xiaosu also made their way down to the basent.
Upon seeing the scene before them, they were both taken aback. Then, their attention was imdiately drawn to Sun Xiaong, who was having her throat squeezed by the Ice Demon Old Man!
Bai Wenrou’s face changed, and she imdiately raised her gun, the dark muzzle aid at the Ice Demon Old Man, and coldly shouted, "Let Xiaong go now!"
"Die, you old monster! Release the hostage imdiately!"
At this ti, Wei Xiaosu also pulled out a silver pocket pistol from her bosom and aid at the Ice Demon Old Man, shouting fiercely.
The Ice Demon Old Man paid no attention to the two won, just fixing his gaze on Ye Xuan, and asked in a gloomy tone:
"Brat, let ask you, was it Gui Qi who led you here?"
Ye Xuan frowned and shook his head, "Gui Qi? Who is he? I don’t know him!"
He then sneered, "Although I don’t know this Gui Qi, it is thanks to him that we found you! The girl he kidnapped had a tracking system in her phone. By tracking her location, we found this place. To be honest, I really should thank him. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have been so quick to dig out an old hide like you!"
