Many people didn’t know why Chu Yunsheng didn’t kill Zhao Baozhu, they all felt that it was such a shame. Such a despicable scumbag, even if he was cut up into pieces, no one would sympathize with him.
Only Chu Yunsheng knew why he didn’t kill the man. He waved to Zhao Baozhu and said, “You follow me and take me to see your leader.”
After speaking, he turned back to Wang Yijian and said, “You, contact Yu Xiaohai of the Awakening Force for me, let him come here and wait for me as soon as possible, and I will be back very soon.”
Zhao Baozhu felt very gloomy. If Chu Yunsheng simply wanted to see the Phantom Sect leader, was it really necessary to ask him to lead the way? Moreover, he would be back very soon? Did he think that the Phantom Sect leader was as weak as him?“I need to ask you a few things, you have to answer honestly. If you dare to talk nonsense or lie to me, you should know the consequences.”
“You can rest assured that I will never dare to lie to you. Just ask away. If you think that I am lying, you can kill me straight away!”
“Okay then, first thing, you can control the insects, right? Or have the ability to communicate with them?”
Zhao Baozhu had a secret, and it was his biggest secret. Such a secret, even the so-called friends he hung out with also didn’t know about it. This was his life-saving trump card. However, at the moment, he had to say it, and if he dared to hesitate, his life would be in danger.
His eyes were twitching, and his mouth was open. He tried to give a sycophantic smile as much as he could. However, in the end, he could only let out a hollow laugh, “I also don’t know what is going on, they don’t seem to have any hostility towards me, I can feel their existence. In terms of… I don’t know how to describe it. Really, brother, I am not lying.”
Chu Yunsheng thought about what he said. He did not know whether he lied or not, but even if he did lie about it, he had already gotten what he wanted to know. From the moment he saw the insects blocking the entrance of the building, he felt a trace of strangeness. It didn’t feel like control, more like a spiritual resonance between the insects and Zhao Baozhu.
It reminded him of something from the past, and he couldn’t help but say to himself, “Is he a human that isn’t contaminated by deviants?”Turning his head and looking at Zhao Baozhu, he couldn’t help but feel a little ridiculous. Chu Yunsheng had seen two humans that weren’t contaminated by deviants in his life. One was in the yellow mountain area, and the other was on an island in the pacific ocean. Both were female, and both of them gave people a comfortable impression, but this guy, he didn’t really know what to say.
Zhao Baozhu was panicked after being stared at by Chu Yunsheng. Probably thinking that Chu Yunsheng still didn’t believe him, he hurriedly explained: “I don’t understand what it is, but every time I encounter a danger, I would let this kind of feeling out, they would always come over to see if they were nearby. But I didn’t expect that this time, they were two groups of red-shelled insects and they were fighting each other fiercely as if they were mortal enemies. If I could control them, Wang Yijian that brat would not be able to block me inside that building at all.”
“Oh.” Chu Yunsheng simply uttered a sound that hinted that he heard what Zhao Baozhu said. Zhao Baozhu indeed couldn’t control the behavior of the insects, this could be confirmed. Otherwise, the insects on both sides would not be so excited as soon as he appeared. This matter needed further testing, and it would remain unclear for a while. It would be an unexpected surprise if he could produce some kind of communication method with the insects from this. Before a Min appeared, no matter how many black-ridged insects were there, he still would not be able to control them and form a useful force.
Just like now, had he not repeatedly “threatened” them, the six injured black-ridged insects would’ve insisted on following him.
Putting this matter aside temporarily, Chu Yunsheng asked while driving the car, “Do you remember who I am now?”
Seeing Chu Yunsheng no longer asked the first question, Zhao Baozhu was relieved and smiled bitterly: “How can I not remember it, back in the university town, you were the one who ruined my…”
Knowing that he had said something that he shouldn’t have said, he quickly changed, “you saved the girl bravely, so of course, I remember you.”
Chu Yunsheng said: “So you still have a deep grudge.”
Zhao Baozhu quickly shook his hands and said: “no, no, no, big brother. I wouldn’t dare to have that kind of feeling. Although I am a bad guy, I admire the people who are stronger than me.”
“I don’t care what kind of feeling you have. From now on, you are working for me. I don’t care what you do, but don’t let me hear it and see it in the future. Otherwise…” Chu Yunsheng thought for a second and warned him.
Zhao Baozhu nodded again and again: “I will never do it again.”
Although he said it this way, Chu Yunsheng knew that this was the kind of person that wouldn’t change. However, they were about to arrive at the Phantom Skyscraper soon, so he didn’t want to talk about this topic again. He simply asked a few questions about why he had conflicts with Wang Yijian. Only until this moment did he know that this scumbag was still thinking about his unfinished business in the grove of the university town that night. After he became an awakener and gained power, he succeeded in kidnapping a few girls to satisfy his lust, so that his courage was getting bigger and bigger. However, the desire to get Lu Bingyan only grew stronger as time passed by. But helplessly, Wang Yijian was also an awakener, and he had also gathered a group of students. So his plan was destroyed by them many times.
In order to deal with Wang Yijian, he first joined Phantom Sect, and then patiently lurked in a place that was near the university town’s student settlement, waiting for his opportunity. Originally, the settlement was heavily guarded. But he didn’t expect that a space tunnel suddenly appeared in their settlement today and there were also many meatball-like monsters pouring out of the space tunnel. He took the advantage of the chaos among the students and broke into the settlement to take the girl that was always in his mind while Wang Yijian and others were rushing to eliminate the meatballs… In terms of what happened, later on, Chu Yunsheng also saw it personally.
After Chu Yunsheng knew what happened, they also arrived at the Phantom Skyscraper, a building that was used to be a five-star hotel. However, no long after the complete darkness, it was occupied by Old Youling using force.
The awakeners that came to support Zhao Baozhu were forced to stay behind by Chu Yunsheng using the red-shelled insects. The people that escaped from the back of the window didn’t know much about him, so even if they came back to report it, they wouldn’t describe it clearly.
The reason why he was here was that he wanted to find out what exactly was Old Youling up to.
This originally had not been on the list of things that he urgently needed to deal with, but since he had bumped into it, he might as well come here. Moreover, Old Youling seemed to have also gathered a group of awakeners, if he didn’t do anything about it, it might become one of his biggest obstacles in the future.
After getting out of the car, Chu Yunsheng raised his head and saw a big gold-lettered sign hanging outside the entrance of the building and it was written Phantom Sect. With gold characters on a black background, it looked very majestic.
At the door stood a row of men in the blue dress, all in high spirits, and all their eyes were full of pride. The ordinary people that came in and out of the building were very deferential toward them and not daring to offend them at the slightest.
“Mr. Chu, are we really going to go in?” Zhao Baozhu has already changed the way he addressed Chu Yunsheng on the way. At this moment, he was finally able to confirm that what Chu Yunsheng said earlier was not a bluff. This guy really wanted to get into the Phantom Sect just by himself. However, he was probably going to die here.
“According to what you said, they should be having a party at the moment… You just need to tell me which floor it’s usually on.” Chu Yunsheng nodded and said emotionlessly.
“I am not qualified to enter the floor where they usually hold a party, but I heard that it is in the luxurious hall on the 16th floor. I can only take you to the fifth floor.” Zhao Baozhu said nervously.
Chu Yunsheng shook his head and said: “No need, you can wait for me in the car.” Then his tone suddenly changed. “Huh! Phantom?!”
Zhao Baozhu was confused. But in the next second, he saw Chu YunSheng suddenly take out a red cloak out of nowhere, put it on, then after the space around his body became distorted, Chu YunSheng gradually disappeared from his eyes.
Zhao Baozhu stared at the place where Chu YunSheng disappeared with his eyes and mouth wide open in shock. He couldn’t even make a sound.
This was another function of the fiery cloak: Invisibility. Speaking of which, the code that was used to unlock this functional module of the cloak was actually given by Old Youling after it devoured the fiery figure. It was such an irony that he was now using it against Old Youling.
After a brief moment of visual distortion, there was no more fluctuation and distortion in the space. Like that person that didn’t exist, Chu Yunsheng was walking on the street, approaching the entrance of the building step by step.
The muscular men in blue were walking back and forth with their sharp and vigilant eyes as if they wanted to poke a hole in the bodies of those who walked in and out of the building. Whenever their sight landed on someone for more than a second, the person would be dragged to the side by several people. They then would look the person up and down while comparing the person with a portrait.
When Chu Yunsheng walked past them, he also took a quick glance at the portrait. Seeing that the person on the portrait looked similar to him, he frowned and his eyes instantly flashed a cold gleam.
Only
Old Youling knew that he was still alive, and it started to take precautions against him.
The men in blue did not find anything strange, and the strange detector in their hands also didn’t detect anything. It was just when Chu Yunsheng walked past them, a man suddenly murmured,
“I felt something just moved past us. I even had goosebumps. Damn, this is strange.”
Shanghai still had electricity, and the elevator was also in operation, but Chu Yunsheng chose the stairs in the emergency exit. The 16th-floor was not high for him, without much effort, he soon arrived at the 16th floor.
There were many people coming and going, both men and women dressed neatly, and it was completely different from the refugee camps outside the city. Obviously, those people were from the upper social class of the city.
Because there were many people, so no one paid much attention to the people that joined the party. The people like the security guards were only arranged to guard some key points. They were no longer walking around, patrolling the place.
In a remote corner, Chu Yunsheng put away his cloak and walked out calmly. As he walked into the crowd, he picked up the wine glass on the tray of the young waiter in the crowd, and some delicate food displayed on the white tablecloth, and then leaned against the guardrail that was carved with beautiful patterns, while looking at the various people who came to join the party.
