After Being Cyber Bullied, She Reveals Her True Identity
Chapter 205 - 205 205 Offering MasksChapter 205: Chapter 205: Offering Masks! Chapter 205: Chapter 205: Offering Masks! A chilling voice came from the other side: “Are you in the border village of Yun Province?”
Though it sounded like a question, the tone was certain.
Chi Chengyu was so frightened that he quickly looked around, his face turning pale.
Aside from the dense woods he could see, there were several village houses and a few sentries patrolling back and forth.
“No, I was just racing cars in town.”
“Racing cars in that kind of place? Chi Chengyu, do you think I’m a fool or do you think you’re clever?” Boyuan’s voice grew even colder, “Whatever you’re planning, leave that place within half an hour.”
“Brother…”
“Still want to call me brother? Then get out of that place immediately. Chi Chengyu, have you lost your mind? Going to that place, what are you trying to do? If you want to die, I won’t stop you, but don’t bring disaster on the whole family. Did you hear me? Get out of there.”
The anger in his voice was nearly a growl, icy and reaching its limit.
Chi Chengyu’s hand trembled as he held his phone.
“Brother Boyuan, I just wanted to do something for the family.”
“Do we, the Chi Family, engage in such dealings? Chi Chengyu, don’t get everyone killed. If I don’t hear from you within half an hour that you’ve left, I will come and capture you myself. Did you understand?”
Chi Chengyu was shocked!
Capture him?
Had he heard wrong?
Chi Chengyu’s face turned as white as a sheet, wanting to say something to Boyuan, but the line had already been disconnected.
He clutched his phone, pacing back and forth, unable to shake off his irritation; it only grew colder.
Suddenly, he swore, “Damn it,” and grabbed the car keys next to him, striding out.
Yang Fei and a few others had just returned and, seeing his hurried demeanor, blocked his path: “Fifth Young Master, what’s happening?”
“I’m done,” Chi Chengyu said impatiently, “I don’t have the patience to wait for their deal to finish. Besides, I feel like this deal is a loss for me, no guarantees, just a phone call inviting me to join in, and if these people turn on me, it’s not only trouble but also a loss of money.”
Yang Fei was taken aback, looking deeply at Chi Chengyu, “Fifth Young Master, it might be difficult for us to leave now.”
“What do you mean?” Chi Chengyu’s expression changed, staring intently at Yang Fei.
Yang Fei sighed, “Once you enter the trading area, you have to wait until the deal is done before you can leave, that’s their rule here. Didn’t you hear them explain the rules when we came in?”
Chi Chengyu was stunned, “No.”
“Even if we don’t participate in the deal, we still have to wait until both parties have completed their transaction before we can leave,” Yang Fei said, “Fifth Young Master, perhaps we should just go back and wait.”
“Wait for what! If Chi Chengyu wants to leave, would they dare to stop me?” Chi Chengyu suddenly felt something was off, “I want to leave now, immediately! Yang Fei, don’t tell me you’re in cahoots with them, also trying to keep me here.”
Seeing Chi Chengyu’s explosive demeanor, Yang Fei raised his hands, smiling bitterly: “I came in with Fifth Young Master; I’m with Fifth Young Master. Do you think I could say anything here?”
Chi Chengyu eyed him suspiciously for a moment, then dropped his guard against Yang Fei, recalling Boyuan’s words, irritably saying, “We need to figure out a way to get out of here now.”
Yang Fei glanced around and came closer, speaking softly, “If Fifth Young Master really wants to leave, we have to take the backroads.”
“The backroads?” Chi Chengyu’s eyebrows furrowed, “Go through the mountains, do you know the way?”
Damn it.
He, Chi Chengyu, had to sneak out, and it wasn’t as if he had done anything shameful.
“We’ve been up front and saw it, the exit to the highway is tightly guarded, and we even spotted them carrying weapons!”
Chi Chengyu stared at him wide-eyed, unable to conceal his shock!
*
Evening.
The sounds of heavy footsteps and breathing moved northward through the woods.
“Damn! How long are they going to chase us…”
“Fifth Young Master, we can’t run anymore,” Yang Fei, running alongside Chi Chengyu, said with a bitter smile before crashing heavily to the ground.
At the same time, Chi Chengyu also tripped over a trap on the ground.
“Damn!”
He couldn’t help but swear again.
He, Chi Chengyu, also had such a disgraceful day.
Just over an hour ago, he and Yang Fei took a shortcut together, but they were discovered, and a group of men wielding weapons chased after them.
They chased incessantly.
He ran for his life but couldn’t escape.
The local people quickly surrounded him; some shouted to get rid of him, while others opposed.
Chi Chengyu almost cried out.
Chi Chengyu was tightly bound; now, he didn’t even have a chance to escape.
He regretted it.
Regretted his greed for big actions and big money.
They had been running for over an hour and ended up back at the village.
And by this time, it had gotten dark.
It was almost time for the deal.
Chi Chengyu watched the lights turn on and felt a wave of fear in his heart.
He wanted to call Chi Boyuan for help but realized he had lost his phone at some point.
Chi Chengyu’s face turned pale and ashen.
Seeing the group muttering, someone used a phone to inform the other party involved in the transaction, mentioning some sensitive keywords.
Upon hearing this, not only did Chi Chengyu’s face turn pale, but he also felt waves of darkness before his eyes.
He finally understood what Chi Boyuan meant by those words.
“Snap!”
There was a sudden noise from a cottage at the foot of the hill.
The people waiting for the transaction turned around and immediately screamed, “The Sacrificial Hall is on fire!”
Everyone snapped to and fetched buckets, fire extinguishers, and snapped off cypress branches—whatever could be used to fight the fire.
It was clear how much they cared about the Sacrificial Hall.
Chi Chengyu looked timidly upwards, and in the dimness, he saw the fire growing fiercer.
Just as everyone ran towards that direction, a slender figure emerged from behind where Chi Chengyu was standing.
“Who’s there!”
Yang Fei’s eyes narrowed sharply, staring intensely at the slender figure.
Seeing the Guan Gong mask on the face of the other, several people were stunned.
Besides the mask which hid the face, the figure’s clean, moon-like presence captivated everyone.
The people guarding Chi Chengyu suddenly realized, “This is a mask from the Sacrificial Hall! She’s the one who set the fire!”
This statement immediately ignited the anger of those who hadn’t yet gone to put out the fire.
They recklessly pulled out their weapons and fired at the figure.
The unblemished figure dodged like a ghost; within moments, they saw her appear behind them, disarm the assailants, and knock them out by pressing against their foreheads.
The others had just raised their equipment when they were swiftly knocked out on the spot, the whole affair taking just a minute or two.
Watching her appear like a deity, and disarm over a dozen men with ease like a war god, Chi Chengyu’s eyes widened more and more!
Adoration overflowed from his expression!
“Click.”
The cold barrel pressed against Yang Fei’s forehead.
The atmosphere suddenly froze!
“Bang!”
“Bang!”
A second before the sound came from behind, the slender shadow crisply turned around and fired.
Two metal objects collided, sparking briefly.
The man shooting from the slope saw the falling metal debris and was stunned momentarily.
