Chapter 61 - Reversal
The clothes on his body were covered with a layer of dust. This was caused by Han Fei destroying various obstacles along the way.
Because the other party had killed his wife, he had not given up despite the fruitless pursuit, and was waiting for his stamina to drop.
Chen Yiming continued to dodge and observe his surroundings. However, he didn’t hear any movements indicating that a fight was going on in the ward.
Han Fei also calmed down and sensed that something was amiss.
The two of them could not have expected that Gan Shasha and her group would be restrained without putting up any resistance. Facing three experts of the same level at once, Gan Shasha knew that she had no chance of victory. In order to preserve her life, she would just surrender.
Chen Yiming had once again dodged a fatal
blow.
Han Fei stopped in his tracks and looked in the direction of the hospital. Chen Yiming stopped as well, and the two of them stood separated by a distance of ten meters. “This is a trap. You’re here to stall me,” Han Fei suddenly said.
“A trap?” Chen Yiming was taken aback.
Han Fei confirmed his guess when Chen Yiming didn’t reply.
If it wasn’t a trap, how could everything be so coincidental?
Gan Shasha had led her men in. Other than the initial explosion, there was no other movement. Coincidentally, he was being held back by Chen Yiming. He couldn’t kill his opponent, and his opponent didn’t even try to escape after he stopped.
The military was far from what ordinary forces could deal with. If not for the war at the front line, people like him would not have dared to cause such a huge commotion in the city.
Clearly, the value of a bloodline warrior caused the military to mobilize their forces from the front line to resolve the matter.
He was lucky that he hadn’t fallen into the trap set by the military because of his plan to kill Chen Yiming.
Suddenly, a series of orderly footsteps rang out.
Chen Yiming and Han Fei looked in the direction of the hospital at the same time.
Both of them were experts who had undergone six transformations. Their ears were much sharper than that of ordinary people, and they could tell from the sound of the footsteps that they were from the military.
“Your companions should have charged right into the trap,” Chen Yiming said.
At this moment, he felt relieved and was already considering how he could kill Han Fei without leaving behind any traces of his involvement.
“So what? If you have the ability, stop me. Let’s see if I can kill you with one punch,” Han Fei said fiercely.
As soon as he finished speaking, he stomped his feet and leaped across a house, fleeing into the distance.
“On the surface, I have the strength from three transformations. With the enhancement from the Mantis Snake Sword Technique, my speed can just match an expert who has undergone five transformations.
Coupled with the advantage of the topography of the city’s complicated buildings, it’s not impossible for me to escape with my life after being pursued by an expert who has undergone six transformations,” Chen Yiming thought to himself.
Chen Yiming watched Han Fei escape into the distance. He changed into his black suit and followed quietly.
The white moonlight shone on the river.
A wooden ship of more than 10 meters long was quietly resting on the shore.
This was the means by which Gan Shasha, Han Fei, and their group would make their getaway. Their organization had already bribed a patrol team to let them leave the city through the river.
Han Fei stomped on the ground and leaped more than ten meters away. It did not take long for him to reach the wooden ship.
Experts who had undergone six transformations were able to move at extremely high speeds. It would not take them long to cross the entire East Lake City
re
“None of my subordinates escaped. That’s exactly what I wanted. Leaving alone will make the target smaller,” Han Fei muttered as he walked.
His mood was not affected by his failure at assassination. Instead, he felt a sense of relief from escaping from the trap.
“I didn’t expect my luck to be so good. However, I have to leave as soon as possible.”
The commotion he had caused earlier was not small, and the military must have already noticed it. However, ordinary soldiers were restricted by the orders passed down to them and would not be able to act independently.
“If this drags on for too long, the military will be able to get the information from Gan Shasha. When it comes to that, it will be difficult to leave.”
Han Fei stopped in front of the wooden ship and did not immediately jump onto it.
“Uncle Fu,” Han Fei called softly.
Uncle Fu was an old uncle in charge of piloting the ship, and he was an external member of the organization.
The night was silent, and only the sound of the waves hitting the shore could be heard.
“Where is he?”
“Swish!”
As soon as he finished speaking, a blinding light shot out from the darkness, charging towards Han Fei’s forehead at an extremely fast speed. “Freeze!”
Han Fei’s eyes instantly widened. With a loud roar, he used his bloodline warrior abilities and quickly dodged to the side.
“Swish!”
Chen Yiming’s sword pierced through Han Fei’s head. He unleashed his full strength, even using the Heart Sword that he had never used before.
The basic sword body brought about a higher base physical strength compared to those at the same level. Combined with the speed of the Chen Style Sword Technique and the ability of the Heart Sword to cut through anything, he was able to pierce through his opponent’s skull without any resistance.
“You…” Before he could finish his sentence, Han Fei collapsed by the riverside.
He had never expected to fall here, after he had already escaped the military’s trap.
“It seems like something broke my focus just now.” Chen Yiming stood beside the corpse and recalled the sneak attack he had just made.
The interference was too weak, and the Heart Sword had pierced through his opponent directly. It felt similar to slashing a plastic sheet with a knife.
Chen Yiming didn’t think much of it and squatted down to loot his opponent’s body.
Very quickly, he found a book in Han Fei’s clothes. There were more than ten pages in total, and each page had a picture drawn on it.
Chen Yiming carefully searched the body a few times to make sure that he did not miss anything. He kicked the corpse into the river and untied the rope around the wooden ship, letting it drift downstream.
Finally, he cleaned up the marks left behind and headed back to the hospital.
Back at the hospital, Chen Yiming saw a group of soldiers patrolling the hospital. From the moment Han Fei attacked Chen Yiming to the moment Chen Yiming ambushed Han Fei, only 10 minutes had passed.
After going through a series of checks to verify his identity, he entered the hospital.
At the door of the ward, Chen Yiming saw three martial arts experts from the military, Chen Shaojie’s family, and the team from Dr. Fu’s laboratory that had been restrained.
“You don’t even have a single injury on you,” exclaimed Gan Shasha, who was restrained with a pair of special handcuffs.
She had thought that Han Fei would have a chance to escape when he sensed that something was amiss. However, she hadn’t expected Chen Yiming to return unharmed and alive.
She couldn’t think of any reason why he would fail in his assassination when he had achieved the sixth transformation and was dealing with someone who had only undergone three transformations.
Chen Yiming glanced at Gan Shasha and didn’t reply.
Han Fei was already dead, and whether his body could be found was another matter.
Whatever he said would be taken as the truth.
“Cousin, it’s great that you’re back so soon. We were just about to go look for you directly,” Chen Shaojie walked forward and said.
“Yiming, your second aunt and I saw it. It’s good that you came back safely,” Chen Zhipeng said worriedly.
“I’m not as strong as the other party, but it won’t be easy for him to kill me either. He was chasing me and I was trying to make use of the surroundings to escape, so I couldn’t save you guys back then,” Chen Yiming explained, giving the reason he had thought of earlier.
