Chapter 251: Two hundred fifty, solve Chapter 251: Two hundred fifty, solve Farmer saw Song Yan Ning and Qin Yushen looking at him; his heart was gripped by greater fear, and he took a few steps back before turning to run. He didn’t want to die. It had not been easy for him to get to this point—somehow, he still had a bright future ahead.
A figure appeared in front of Farmer like lightning, blocking his way, “Do you think you can run away?”
“Please let me go, I can take you to our organization’s warehouse,” Farmer pleaded in terror, looking at Qin Yushen who stood in his path. How could he be so fast? After all, Farmer was a Level 5 superpower user himself. He had always been confident in his speed, but today he was deeply shaken. The blow to his ego was one thing, but whether he could save his own life was another matter entirely.
“We can let you go, but you must tell us the location of your headquarters,” said Song Yan Ning, who walked over to Qin Yushen’s side with a teasing look at Farmer. They had just destroyed a Black Group branch, and there was no way the headquarters would let them off easily. Since they would have to fight eventually, it would be better to settle things sooner so they could relax sooner.
“Can’t we agree on another condition?” How could Farmer dare to tell Song Yan Ning and Qin Yushen the location of the headquarters? If he did, the headquarters would surely eradicate everyone related to him.
“Do you think you have the right to negotiate terms with us?” Qin Yushen asked indifferently.
Farmer hesitated for a moment, then looked firmly at Song Yan Ning and Qin Yushen, “Then kill me.” He was determined not to reveal it. It was death either way for him.
“Still some spine left,” Song Yan Ning said with a smile, snapping her fingers.
As a needle pierced Farmer’s forehead, his gaze gradually became lifeless.
“Now, tell us the location of your headquarters,” Song Yan Ning ordered. She and Qin Yushen had not yet reached the Nascent Soul Stage and were unable to use the Soul Searching Technique. Otherwise, they could have gleaned the information by directly probing with their Divine Sense.
“Our headquarters are located three thousand nautical miles east of the Atlantic, on a small island,” said Farmer, unable to control his consciousness, and detailed everything Song Yan Ning and Qin Yushen asked him.
Having obtained the information they wanted, Song Yan Ning and Qin Yushen, naturally, did not let Farmer go.
Qin Yushen conjured a ball of flames, and Farmer immediately let out a shrill scream.
After a glance at Farmer who was engulfed in flames, Qin Yushen took Song Yan Ning’s hand and headed toward the Black Group’s warehouse. He did not kill Farmer outright but let his body and soul burn in the flames until death took him. For someone who had committed so many evil deeds, a quick death would be too merciful. He had to feel what hell was truly like.
The Black Group’s warehouse had two floors: the first floor was filled with rare materials, diamonds, and jewels, while the second floor contained Chinese porcelain and ancient paintings.
Song Yan Ning and Qin Yushen gathered what was useful to them into Storage Rings.
“Should we take these antiques too?” Song Yan Ning asked, looking at a room full of antiques. She was not interested in these things, but it was definitely not an option to leave them here.
Qin Yushen nodded, “I’ll craft a Storage Bag first.” These antiques were treasures of China, and he planned to take them back, to find an appropriate opportunity to give them to his grandfather for handling.
Song Yan Ning nodded, “You craft it, I’ll go set up an Array.” There could be people showing up here at any moment. Although they weren’t afraid, they didn’t want to be disturbed while they were busy.
She had another reason for setting up the Array; while Qin Yushen was crafting the Storage Bag, she had things to do. The people here had mostly been eradicated by them, so there was no need for this place to continue existing. That’s why she planned to destroy all the equipment here, especially surveillance devices. She did not want their identities to be known to the other side before they even made their move.
After the Array was set up, Song Yan Ning used Fire Spirit Talismans to burn down everything except the warehouse where she and Qin Yushen were staying.
Returning to the warehouse, Qin Yushen had already packed up the antiques.
“Is everything taken care of?” Qin Yushen asked, smiling as he gently tousled her hair. He knew what she was doing when she had been gone for so long.
Song Yan Ning nodded with a smile, “Just this place is left.”
Qin Yushen took Song Yan Ning’s hand, “Let’s go.” They had been there almost two days; if they didn’t return soon, his mother would start to worry.
Ariel had wanted to find a boat, and just as she saw one and was about to board it, she heard the sound of running behind her.
She looked around and found a hidden spot to hide. Her talismans were running low, and she didn’t want to waste any more.
No sooner had she hidden herself than she saw the people who were brought with her running over in panic, followed by a dozen men with weapons.
“If you don’t stop now, we won’t be polite,” the man in the lead threatened those who were running, while he fingered the trigger of his weapon. These people were money; there was no way they would let them escape. If they did, there would be no staying in the organization for them, not to mention punishment by the organization’s terrifying methods, which they had witnessed firsthand.
“Bang!”
Hearing the sound, everyone hastily stopped, fearfully squatting down, filled with despair. They had thought they could escape, but in the end, they were still caught. It seemed their tragic fate was inescapable.
Ariel, witnessing this scene, felt a sense of urgency. She didn’t want to watch these people be taken back, but she was only one person. What could she do?
Looking at the talismans in her hand, only five remained. It was not enough to deal with twelve people. If she used weapons, she would reveal herself immediately. Taking on twelve by herself was impossible.
After much thought, Ariel decided to give up on rescuing those people for now. It wasn’t that she didn’t want to help, but the current conditions didn’t allow it. The main reason was that she didn’t know if any of the pursuers might be superpower users.
She decided to wait here for the siblings to come. They were very capable and would surely find a way to save those people.
Ariel saw flames suddenly rising in the distance and couldn’t help but worry, “They haven’t run into trouble, have they?” Her biggest concern was still the siblings. They were capable, but there were also many superpower users on the island. Could they really handle them?
Once again looking at the Fire Spirit Talisman in her hand, Ariel gritted her teeth and emerged from her hiding spot, running toward the direction of the flames. She wanted to see for herself; perhaps she could help.
