Super Combat Soldier

Chapter 648: Chapter 647 [Lone Wolf]

[PS: Today’s first update has arrived. We’ve reached two million words, getting quite hefty, I’m asking to be slaughtered!]

The Divine Movement Skill was truly unrivaled. Once Ye Tianchen had been taught by Tian Boguang, he would study it whenever he had time. Utilizing the Divine Movement Skill to flee and face enemies, it proved exceptionally powerful, with extreme speed—far superior to the ordinary Qi Manipulation Flying Skill.

After roughly over an hour of rapid movement like a bolt of lightning, Ye Tianchen had already carried Ling Yuxun out of the center of New York City, reaching the desolate south. In this southern area of the city’s center, dense jungles and hills were all around. Ye Tianchen carried Ling Yuxun on his back and, after briefly discerning the direction, continued forward.

”Tianchen, I... can I come down and walk by myself?” Ling Yuxun asked somewhat embarrassedly, blushing.

”No, the terrain here is a bit strange, and we don’t know where Bao Tianglong and the others have gone. There could be danger, it’s better if I carry you!” Ye Tianchen said seriously.

”Oh!” Ling Yuxun nodded and said.

Despite the sprint, Ling Yuxun could still feel it; lying on Ye Tianchen’s back, the speed was incredibly fast, with no time to enjoy the scenery along the way—no sights to behold, only the wind remaining. Therefore, all she could do was lie on Ye Tianchen’s back, tightly hugging his neck with both hands. The two ”little white rabbits” on the girl’s chest naturally pressed firmly against Ye Tianchen’s back. Even Ling Yuxun herself could feel that jiggling, to say nothing of Ye Tianchen—how could she not be embarrassed?

However, to tell the truth, Ye Tianchen really didn’t have the leisure to enjoy this soft and warm pleasure. With Ling Shuanghe dead, he had to ensure Ling Yuxun’s safety and safely return to China with his Thirteen Heavenly Kings’ brothers. Retreating safely was definitely not going to be easy. Who knew what other tricks the M-country government’s bunch of robbers had up their sleeves!

This time, Ye Tianchen didn’t use the Divine Movement Skill to fiercely charge forward but simply carried Ling Yuxun, step by step, as he advanced. He had released his powerful Superpower Perception, which instantly spread far and wide. To his surprise, he didn’t sense any human energy signatures. The energy signatures of Bao Tianglong and the other six people were also undetectable. Where had they gone? Had they escorted the hundred shareholders of the Ling Group to safety and not yet returned to regroup, or did they encounter danger?

Pondering this, Ye Tianchen’s expression turned a bit solemn. With the capabilities of Bao Tianglong, Wang Jie, Li San, Hu Long, Lin Duan, Zhang Tian, and Zhang Di, even if they faced a more formidable opponent, their collective strength was substantial. Even if they couldn’t defeat their adversary, they should be able to withdraw safely. How could they vanish without a trace?

Could it be the Red Child that Alice spoke of? What kind of monster was this exactly?” Ye Tianchen paused and thought to himself.

Slowly, Ye Tianchen carried Ling Yuxun onward, and not far ahead, on top of a hill, were two people. One looked like a frail scholar with glasses, and the other was Ling Qing. Ling Qing leaned into the scholar’s embrace, her eyes filled with anger. When a woman becomes ruthless and enraged, her gaze can send chills down one’s spine.

”I didn’t expect we would have a common goal!” Ling Qing said coldly to the scholarly-looking man.

”Ye Tianchen’s strength is not to be underestimated, even though it doesn’t match mine. But I won’t show any mercy. Man Tian died at my hands, and yet I managed to survive. It’s just a pity that the other six of the Demon Wolf Seven Wolves are dead, setting us on the path to ruin,” the scholarly-looking man said with a cold laugh.

The frail scholar was Demon Wolf himself. Back when the Heavenly Gang War General’s base was attacked, the Demon Mercenary Seven Wolves struck, and Ye Tianchen was no match for Demon Wolf. If not for Man Tian’s timely arrival, Ye Tianchen might have been killed. That battle was extremely brutal. It wasn’t that Man Tian lacked strength; he had too many concerns and was ambushed by Demon Wolf. And yet, despite being severely wounded, Demon Wolf was knocked away by Ye Tianchen, who had rushed to the scene, forcing him to flee for his life.

”Man Tian was the total commander of the Heavenly Gang War Generals, and you killed him. Who else in this world could be your opponent? Ye Tianchen is nothing but a fish on the chopping board for you, just waiting to be sliced. I just want to see him die by my own hands. How dare he deceive me—he deserves to die!” Ling Qing said viciously.

”You’re wrong. Man Tian was very strong. Even when his strength was not what it once was, he was able to gravely injure me. Now, I can only exert eighty percent of my full power, but of course, that’s more than enough to kill Ye Tianchen. He’s just a Superpower User with a bit of skill,” Demon Wolf said with confidence.

”After killing Ye Tianchen and his people, do you have any plans for what to do next?” Ling Qing asked with a smile.

”What to do? After I’ve taken care of such a big problem for the M-country government, shouldn’t they show some appreciation?” Demon Wolf said indifferently and disdainfully.

”The M-country government is nothing but shameless robbers. It won’t be easy to get something from their hands,” Ling Qing said, shaking her head.

”If that’s the case, then I’ll just have to have a chat with Hei Bama personally. When necessary, I won’t mind making sure he loses more than just his position,” Demon Wolf said menacingly.

Demon Wolf was the leader of the Demon Mercenaries Seven Wolves, with terrifying strength and a penchant for bloodshed. If pushed to the brink, killing Hei Bama was definitely a deed he would carry out. People like him, with that kind of power, didn’t have to fear the might of a country; they had reached a point of utter madness.

”You’ve got guts, I like men like you. You were so rough last night, you’ll have to be gentler today!” Ling Qing said with a lewd smile.

”Don’t worry, once I’ve killed Ye Tianchen and his crew, you can play as long as you want,” Demon Wolf said, holding up Ling Qing’s chin with his right hand.

Unexpectedly, Ling Qing had colluded with Demon Wolf. This pair, a man with abnormally strong and evil capabilities and a woman extremely vile in nature, how did they end up in such a coincidence that they were together, lying in wait to kill Ye Tianchen and the others?

”By the way, the leader of our sect wants to invite you to join. What do you think...” Ling Qing tentatively said.

”Really? If I were to join your sect, the first one to die would be your leader. I don’t like being told what to do!” Demon Wolf said disdainfully.

Ling Qing was stunned for a moment and dared not continue. She knew the fierceness of Demon Wolf, whose strength was very powerful, no less than that of the leader of her own sect. She met Demon Wolf by chance, and their relationship was purely physical. This time, unexpectedly, they met here. When Demon Wolf rescued Ling Qing from the Ling family estate, he had only partially recovered from his injuries. Sensing several powerful individuals at the Ling family estate, he opted not to fight and simply took Ling Qing away with him.

”Hmph, Ye Tianchen will appear soon. Do you want to watch me kill him with your own eyes?” Demon Wolf sneered.

”He’s appeared? Why haven’t I seen him?” Ling Qing asked in shock.

”If you could see him, then he wouldn’t be worth my personal effort to kill. The kid’s superpower is not weak. Just now, a probing energy seemed to come this way, but I concealed it, so he has no idea we’re here waiting for him. Soon, you’ll see how I’ll crush him with a single punch,” Demon Wolf said with a cold laugh.

”Great, when the time comes, I’ll do my best to cheer for you!” Ling Qing said with an extremely lewd laugh.

At this moment, Ye Tianchen was unaware that Demon Wolf and Ling Qing had joined forces and were waiting for him just ahead at a small hill. Demon Wolf’s strength was extraordinary. Even when Man Tian had seriously injured Demon Wolf during their encounter at the Heavenly Gang War General’s original forest base, Ye Tianchen was unable to finish him off, which attested to Demon Wolf’s formidable power. Ye Tianchen had come to regard Demon Wolf as his strongest enemy.

”Tianchen, why do I feel it’s getting colder around us?” Ling Yuxun shivered and asked.

”Something isn’t right. Get down and follow me closely. If there’s any danger, ensure your own safety first,” Ye Tianchen instructed as he set Ling Yuxun down from his back, his expression growing serious. Despite superpower perception detecting no enemy presence, his instincts told Ye Tianchen that a powerful adversary was nearby.

Ao... A wolf howl emanated from a nearby small hill as a massive black wolf burst forth, its red eyes charging directly towards Ye Tianchen at a lightning-fast pace. Ye Tianchen was caught off guard, quickly pushing Ling Yuxun aside with his left hand, while his right hand clenched tightly, sending a Thunder Dragon raging forward, colliding head-on with the black wolf.

Bang! A loud boom resounded as the black wolf was swallowed by the Thunder Dragon, which continued its relentless assault towards the small hill, reducing it to flat ground, turning it into nothingness, while two figures already stood before Ye Tianchen and Ling Yuxun.

”Fourth Aunt, is that you?” Ling Yuxun was the first to ask in surprise.

”Fourth Aunt? Hahaha, I’m just someone the Ling family drove away. Let me tell you the truth, I’m going to kill you all, you’re all going to die!” Ling Qing glared fiercely at Ling Yuxun.

”Fourth Aunt, you... Grandpa is no longer with us, Big Uncle is dead, Third Aunt is dead too, why would you...” Ling Yuxun spoke with heartfelt pain.

”Dead? That ruthless man, Ling Yuyang, is dead? The old bastard too? That’s great, hahaha. Now the Ling family is left with only me and Ling Yue. If I kill you, Ling Yue will certainly lose his fighting spirit. Then, who can stop me from taking over the entire Ling Group?” Ling Qing, far from sorrowful, laughed even more hideously.

”Yuxun, there’s no point in talking to someone like her, she’s gone completely mad,” Ye Tianchen said indifferently.

At that moment, Demon Wolf stepped forward, wearing a pair of glasses, still looking like a weak scholar, casually speaking to Ye Tianchen, ”Will you take your life, or shall I make a move? Last time you escaped after killing Man Tian, this won’t happen again...”(To be continued.
