Night.
The moonlight poured down like a soft veil, making the bustling international metropolis of HK even more enchanting and dreamlike.
On both sides of the street, various neon lights emitted colorful halos, surrounded by many beautiful young men and women laughing and playing.
From time to time, faint piano melodies could be heard, some with a lively rhythm, others stirring and uplifting.
Led by Ye Yi and Ye Er, Ye Kai strolled leisurely towards their destination, not only holding a variety of delicious street food in his hands but also seeing Ye Yi and Ye Er enjoying plenty of Spicy Fish Balls and Egg Waffles.
Of course, our Ye Dasha was not angry; he had already allowed Ye Yi and Ye Er to share a skewer from their hands, even though they were each holding at least a dozen skewers along with two portions of Egg Waffles.
As they walked and ate, Ye Kai felt that this Dimension trip was definitely worth it; at least he was almost full now.
Walking along the right side of the street, a gentle, slightly cool breeze brushed against his face, helping to clear his somewhat dazed mind after indulging in so much food.
“Sir, we are still 100 meters from the destination.”
Suddenly, just as Ye Kai was about to tackle the last three skewers of Spicy Fish Balls, Ye Yi spoke up in a deep voice.
“Idiot!”
Irritated, Ye Kai kicked Ye Yi lightly while chewing on the Spicy Fish Balls. He rolled his eyes dramatically and mumbled indistinctly, “How many times have I told you? In crowded places, call me ‘Young Master.’ Do you understand?”
“Pfft, hahahaha~”
“Look at that guy; he actually likes being called ‘Young Master’!”
"Young Master? Hahaha..."
Ye Kai was taken aback.
He furrowed his brow and glanced at the group of young men and women passing by, wondering to himself, "Did I say something wrong?"
However, he soon dismissed the thought; after all, he couldn't just reprimand someone for their laughter being 'piercing,' could he?
Unbeknownst to him, Ye Kai had already wandered onto a more secluded path. The distant sounds of bustling crowds could be heard on either side, yet this place felt eerily quiet, as if he had stepped into another world.
"Is that the building ahead that looks like an unfinished structure?"
As he approached, Ye Kai suddenly felt a jolt of surprise. He looked around and realized that there was something very strange about the atmosphere here.
It was a feeling that was hard to describe—tinged with a hint of hostility, a trace of murderous intent, and an odd sensation of being watched from above!
The road was uneven, and on the ground ahead lay a clearly visible puddle of dark red blood. Perhaps it was the bizarre ambiance affecting him, but Ye Kai couldn't shake off the chill that enveloped this place.
There wasn't a soul in sight, only an old taxi parked nearby. Not only was the door ajar, but the headlights were still on.
Ye Kai cautiously approached the bloodstain with Ye Yi and Ye Er by his side. He couldn't tell how long ago it had been left there; the traces around it were completely indistinguishable.
Just as he contemplated whether to unleash his Bio Warrior forces, a bright beam of light suddenly illuminated the area, causing him to squint his eyes.
"Hmm?"
Ye Kai initially thought it was the security guard wearing glasses, but to his surprise, the owner of the beam of light ran away the moment he saw him.
Ran away?!
What kind of situation is this?
"Ye Yi, chase after him and bring him back."
Without a moment's hesitation, Ye Kai issued the order: "Ye Er, come with me. We're heading to the top floor!"
"Whoosh!!!"
Just as Ye Yi dashed out and Ye Kai prepared to lead Ye Er toward the elevator in the unfinished building, a sudden gust of cold wind swept in, chilling him to the bone. He felt a shiver run down his spine.
Confused, he activated the Multifunctional Detector to scan the area, but the device detected nothing unusual—not even any infrared anomalies.
Furrowing his brow, he moved forward a few steps when suddenly, from a nearby alley piled high with various trash, a figure rushed out, hurrying directly toward him.
The person wore an odd black trench coat and a bowler hat, their polished shoes crunching on the gravel beneath them with a dull, hurried sound.
Ye Kai remained expressionless as he quickened his pace with Ye Er, preparing to sidestep the oncoming individual.
However, the person stumbled toward him as if intoxicated, swaying unsteadily.
"Watch yourself, sir," Ye Kai said cautiously. He had no intention of reaching out to help him.
"Swish!"
Suddenly, he was startled, as he vaguely saw a dull black object piercing toward his abdomen.
"Clang!"
There was no sense of danger, no chill or fear, and not even the slightest warning. Even though Ye Kai was already on high alert, he still froze for a moment. Then his gaze turned cold, and he quickly reacted.
"Take him down!"
Seeing Ye Er block the thrust with his arm, Ye Kai spoke in a chilling tone, "After breaking his limbs, I want to ask who it is that has such deep enmity with me."
Ye Er let out a sinister laugh. "Yes, Young Master."
With both arms outstretched, he aimed to embrace the man and directly snap his waist.
"Heh, you've got some skills; I'll play along."
The man suddenly stomped his foot and flipped backward, kicking out twice in succession.
"Bang! Bang!"
Ye Er shook his slightly numb arms and grinned before striding forward again. He then lunged out with his right hand, exuding murderous intent as he shouted, "Bug, you're dead today."
"Hah, anyone can talk big. However, if you can tell me who sent you and why you're here, I might just let you off."
As a Mercenary, Liu Yi would never be easily intimidated. Of course, since he had been paid, he was even less likely to allow anyone to enter the building without permission; it was a matter of principle.
Although he didn't know what secrets were hidden inside, he had already dealt with seven or eight intruders trying to uncover those secrets.
For someone whose reputation was as important as his, refraining from prying into his employer's affairs was one of the key reasons he could maintain continuous employment.
"Bang!"
Ye Er took a large step forward, exuding an aura like a tiger descending the mountain, causing the ground to tremble slightly beneath him.
"Hey!"
Liu Yi scoffed lightly, and in an instant, he shot forward like an arrow released from a bow. From Ye Kai's perspective, this oddly dressed man in a black trench coat appeared as if he were an arrow, charging straight at Ye Er.
In the blink of an eye, their arms collided, fists and palms crashing together with a dull thud.
"Boom!"
Ye Er maintained his defensive grip but was forcibly pushed back several meters by an overwhelming force, nearly colliding with Ye Kai.
Liu Yi's expression shifted slightly; it had been a long time since he had encountered such a powerful opponent. The strength of this Bald Man was certainly formidable, perhaps only slightly inferior to his own.
What he didn't realize was that this strike left Ye Kai astonished, his pupils suddenly constricting.
This person's strength was truly remarkable. Even though Ye Er hadn't used Psychokinesis, the sheer force behind him was not something just anyone could withstand—especially not someone who had been knocked back three or four meters by a single punch.
Fortunately, he was not the only one here. However, Ye Kai was more concerned about whether there were others hiding around, as that strange, watchful gaze reappeared.
"Wow! Those bugs are quite something!"
Ye Er's pupils dilated slightly, and then he fell silent. He clashed his fists together, producing a sound like metal striking metal, and then he charged forward with another powerful strike.
"Just a gesture."
Liu Yi adjusted the brim of his hat, a hint of nostalgia in his tone. "It's been a long time since I've encountered such an interesting opponent. It's truly rare!"
Boom! Boom! Boom!
In just an instant, the two had already engaged in battle. The intense sounds of their collisions echoed one after another, and gusts of explosive air sent dust and debris flying from the ground.
Neither of them moved from their spots; instead, they stood there like sparring brothers, exchanging blows. Yet the tremendous impact and the shockwaves caused the ground beneath them to tremble slowly.
Ye Kai finally showed a hint of surprise.
He had reason to believe that this Trench Coat Man was definitely a superpowered individual, and a Mover at that.
"Damn it, I knew it wouldn't be that simple!"
