"Cough, cough, cough..."
Ren Ningyue had another fit of rapid coughing, the white handkerchief in her hand shaking swiftly before her cherry lips. When she lowered her hand, faint specks of crimson could be seen on the handkerchief.
Ren Ningyue was coughing up blood again.
But this sickly-looking woman, the power she exhibited, was enough to make one break out in a cold sweat.
Ren Ningyue's beautiful eyes glanced at Huang Shengtian, that gaze, though devoid of any emotion, still imparted an enormous sense of intimidation upon him.
His life,
in front of Ren Ningyue, was like that of an ant.
As long as Ren Ningyue wished, she could kill him at any mont.
Moreover, Huang Shengtian deserved to die.
The only reason Ren Ningyue didn't act was because she wanted to play a long ga, fishing for a bigger catch. She knew that although Huang Shengtian's abilities weren't weak, at most he was just a small player; the real danger lay in the organization backing him.
Since he wanted to et Dr. Darst, he clearly had so plan, and the soldier project wasn't a one-man job. Huang Shengtian alone could never complete it; even having the soldier project's experintal data was useless.
"What? Do you still want to let you stay for a al?" Ren Ningyue's willow-like eyebrows slightly furrowed as she slowly placed the white handkerchief by her side, her body already emanating a faint aura of killing intent.
Ren Ningyue's killing intent was faint, unlike Ye Tianfan's sharpness, but the pressure it exerted was no less.
Because Huang Shengtian knew that Ren Ningyue was different from Ye Tianfan. She was colder, more ruthless. When Huang Shengtian faced Ye Tianfan, Ye Tianfan would hold back sowhat and wouldn't go all out imdiately. But Ren Ningyue was different. She used a blade, and once she struck, it was a kill shot. From the earlier situation, one could see that the level of danger from Ren Ningyue was not any less than that from Ye Tianfan.
"Go!"
Huang Shengtian gritted his teeth, couldn't help but glance at the second-floor bedroom of the villa, and left the villa with his n in black.
Although Huang Shengtian was unwilling, he was helpless and could only hope that Ye Tianfan's dical skills weren't proficient enough to remove that silver needle.
However, Huang Shengtian's faint hope was quickly shattered. The Ye Family was an Ancient Vein Family, the pinnacle of Ancient Chinese dical Skill, and Ye Tianfan was the Young Master of the Ye Family. How could he not be able to remove that silver needle?
Half an hour after Huang Shengtian left, Ye Tianfan erged from the bedroom, drenched in sweat.
"How is it? Did you take it out?" Long Yuqing anxiously asked upon seeing Ye Tianfan covered in sweat.
"Yes, I took it out."
"Cough, cough, cough..."
Ren Ningyue sat on the sofa, covering the corner of her mouth with a white handkerchief, lightly coughing.
Seeing the chaotic scene before him, Ye Tianfan instinctively frowned, "Just now..."
"Just now, Huang Shengtian was here," Long Yuqing said while glancing at Ren Ningyue sitting on the sofa.
Long Yuqing's emotions hadn't yet cald, Ren Ningyue's demonstrated strength was astonishingly terrifying.
Ye Tianfan's gaze also fell upon Ren Ningyue. Compared to Long Yuqing's astonishnt, Ye Tianfan remained calm. He knew Huang Shengtian's strength and knew Long Yuqing and her bodyguard couldn't handle it.
The only person who could manage such a chaotic scene was Ren Ningyue.
It seed Shadow Demon was right; the Celestial Punishnt Team would protect Long Yuqing and Qin Ruong's safety, eliminating his concerns.
"Cough, cough, cough..." Ren Ningyue lightly coughed again, her brows slightly raised, looked at Ye Tianfan, and asked, "How is she? Is she awake?"
Ye Tianfan shook his head, "She's still unconscious. I just removed the needle, so it will take a mont for her to wake up."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Tianfan looked at Long Yuqing, "Find so clothes for her to wear."
Ye Tianfan didn't want Huang Xiaorou to wake up and find herself stark naked; explaining it later would be troubleso.
The villa lobby quieted down, Long Yuqing found clothes for Huang Xiaorou and helped her put them on, then instructed Master Jin to clean up the room and dispose of the bodies.
After a dozen minutes, the previously bloodied villa lobby returned to normal. Master Jin's swift manner in handling things showed he must be used to dealing with such situations.
"When do you plan to report to the base?" Ren Ningyue's eyebrow raised as she looked at Ye Tianfan. She intentionally omitted the words Celestial Punishnt Team, not wanting Long Yuqing to know too much.
"I still have so things to deal with. Once they're done, I'll go," Ye Tianfan said with so helplessness. Celestial Punishnt Team was too mysterious for him, and going to the Celestial Punishnt Team wasn't voluntary; it was a necessity of circumstance to gain freedom.
However, the strength within the Celestial Punishnt Team was surprising to Ye Tianfan. The strength Ren Ningyue had shown was astonishing enough, and Shadow Demon's appearance last night piqued Ye Tianfan's curiosity about the Celestial Punishnt Team.
The people of Celestial Punishnt Team are very strong!
Soon, noise ca from the villa's second floor. Everyone quickly looked up to see the bedroom door open. Huang Xiaorou stepped out, her right hand massaging her temple, looking slightly weak.
Her complexion was sowhat sallow, and her spirit seed unwell. The Sky Needle technique had caused significant ntal damage to Huang Xiaorou.
"Where... where am I?"
Huang Xiaorou's eyes were slightly unfocused, sweeping over everyone in the villa with a confused expression, but upon seeing Ye Tianfan, her expression notably softened.
"You're in the villa at 16 Peony Street."
Ren Ningyue was the first to speak, her voice devoid of emotion, like the demon blade on Qin Hu's back. Ren Ningyue seed cold, as if her skin was cold, her body was cold, without a heartbeat or pulse, her aloofness being difficult to accept.
"Peony Street? Villa 16? Why am I here?" Huang Xiaorou slowly ca down from the second floor, reaching Ye Tianfan's side, suddenly feeling weak in the legs, "I... I feel a bit dizzy..."
Ye Tianfan quickly raised a hand to support Huang Xiaorou, who fell into Ye Tianfan's embrace.
She indeed felt a bit dizzy, but it was mostly an act.
This action caused Ren Ningyue to frown slightly, and beside her, Long Yuqing's expression also changed.
Ren Ningyue disapproved of Huang Xiaorou's feigned deanor, while Long Yuqing was simply jealous.
Originally, as Huang Xiaorou just had the needle removed, she was at a mont needing comfort, eliciting sympathy, yet the two won before her simultaneously lost favor with her.
Ye Tianfan was sowhat embarrassed, quickly helping Huang Xiaorou to sit on the sofa, saying, "Do you rember what happened before? Like how you got here?"
Huang Xiaorou frowned, as if desperately trying to recall, but ultimately shook her head, "I can't rember."
