Dark Light Chaser.

Chapter 631 Trap
Ye Qing's spatial abilities are currently capable of precise teleportation within a range of three to four hundred kilometers.

However, their current location is nearly 5,000 kilometers away from the coordinates set by Ai Liang.

Each time a portal is opened, a certain amount of time is required for pre-calculation.

If Ai Liang were to fly at a speed of tens of Mach, he would arrive in Nanyang City in no more than three minutes, which is much faster than teleportation.

After all, the space controlled by Ye Qing is strange, unlike the Apostle level where disciples can open doors anywhere in the world at will.

Ye Qing wrapped her arms around Ai Liang's neck from behind and pressed her entire body against Ai Liang's back.

Once I made sure I had a firm grip, there was a loud bang.

The ground beneath Ai Liang's feet was crushed into large, spiderweb-like cracks by the air pressure generated by the sudden acceleration.

When the road maintenance team sees it in the future, it will be another unsolved mystery.

With telekinesis breaking through the wind ahead, the two people in flight can communicate normally, just like they would on the ground.

Before they reached their destination, Ye Qing asked Ai Liang a question: "After this incident, will we be leaving Qianhua City?"

She didn't object to Ai Liang's choice; she was only concerned about the future.

Ye Qing was a smart girl, and she was mentally prepared for what was about to happen.

This rescue was different from rescuing himself from the Haixin Society.

Ai Liang made Hai Xin completely abandon herself to perfectly handle the aftermath and ensure that their identities would not be exposed because he had started preparing long in advance.

But this time is different.

The incident happened suddenly; Ai Liang had no idea that Yue Qihua and Yang Xingyue had been taken to the Countermeasures Bureau.

Even if Yue Qihua and Yang Xingyue are rescued, Asia Union will definitely not be able to stay.

Although the two were also test subjects of Project DX, Ye Qing's identity was at least not exposed, making it very troublesome to investigate.

Most importantly, Ye Qing is dispensable to the Countermeasures Bureau.

The two sisters, as experimental subjects of Project DX Phase B, are of paramount importance.

It would be a pipe dream for the Countermeasures Bureau to abandon them.

Even if the entire Apostle Society came to kill Ai Liang, the Countermeasures Bureau would never let go.

"Probably. Remember to use the engraving to notify Zhu Lan to leave as soon as possible. I believe she hasn't canceled her smuggling permit yet."

"Where are we going?" Ye Qing continued to ask.

Ai Liang sensed the imprint connected to her mind: "Go to Canaan first and find someone to help you get fake identities. That guy's ability to find loopholes and make fake documents is the best I know."

After this incident, it's obviously impossible to go to Europe. The Special Affairs Bureau won't let me operate on the European continent. I'll try to leave the Asian Union first, and then go live in the Americas.

Furthermore, Yang Xingguo is currently on the move, and it will likely take some time to pinpoint his exact location once he reaches Nanyang City.

I'll take you to the city first. Prepare for spatial teleportation beforehand. Once you're ready, notify me using the inscription, and I'll bring them to find you.

Ye Qing lowered her head and buried her face in Ai Liang's shoulder: "Okay, I understand."

Ai Liang devised a response strategy as quickly as possible.

He had suspected that Yang Xingguo's phone call might be a trap, but it was a blatant conspiracy, and he needed to verify it in person regardless of whether it was true or false.

Even if there's only a one in ten thousand chance it's true, Ai Liang isn't willing to gamble.

While making the call, Ai Liang followed the phone signal and indeed "saw" Yang Xingguo, dressed in tattered clothes; it was definitely him.

How did Yang Xingguo acquire such strange power, and how did he know all this...? Ai Liang didn't even need to guess; it was definitely Yue Yangyan's doing.

The only thing that matters is whether he has found Yue Qihua and Yang Xingyue.

If not, Ai Liang will probably have to make the trip herself.

This time it's not just small-scale skirmishes like before; he's facing the entire countermeasures bureau.

........................

Yang Xingguo hung up the phone and immediately cut it into pieces, sending the pieces flying to other locations.

Having worked on the front lines, he was well aware of signal tracking methods. The presence of a cell phone signal in this desolate wilderness would definitely be noticed by the group that had been chasing him.

He would never have made that call if he hadn't been completely desperate.

Yang Xingguo never thought of relying on his old friends to help him get out of his predicament.

His purpose in making that call was to act as bait to attract the group's attention, so that someone else could take the opportunity to leave with the necklace containing the incubation chamber.

The number of people who can receive this call for help is extremely limited.

After all, they were going against an official secret organization, and there were only two people they could trust unconditionally: Yue Chongshan and the messenger Li Yongming.

Even with Xia Qiyuan and Yang Xingguo personally training Shi Feng, it still didn't work.

With Yue Chongshan being controlled by Yue Yangyan, Li Yongming became the only choice among the two candidates.

When making his first call, Yang Xingguo considered the possibility that the call would be rejected as an unknown number, or that the call would be disconnected upon hearing his own voice.

But he believed that as long as the fighting continued, Li Yongming would definitely not stand idly by.

Yang Xingguo just couldn't understand how Li Yongming had learned all this.

Could he be a hermit?
The hermit's presence in the base's archives suggests he must have some knowledge of these matters, making it easy for Li Yongming to learn about them through him.

Yang Xingguo tried his best to think in an optimistic direction.

He had no other choice but to console himself in this way.

In fact, after leaving the base, if it weren't for a group of people wearing all sorts of masks suddenly appearing and causing trouble on the way ashore, he would have been captured by the base's people long ago.

Although this secret department was not a good thing for Yang Xingguo, it was still an official organization of the Asian Union.

The masked men's frenzied actions clearly indicated they weren't normal people; there was absolutely no way he could entrust his daughter to them.

After flying for about 20 kilometers, Yang Xingguo stopped in a grove of trees.

The black bead can completely block the opponent's unknown tracking methods, but the cost is also obvious.

The "energy" is consumed at a rate more than ten times faster than in combat, and it is necessary to stop every now and then to wait for the black bead to replenish its energy.

Fortunately, the Flame Demon Puppet sealed inside the necklace can quickly replenish the black bead's energy.

Through the black bead, Yang Xingguo could clearly sense that each time it devoured something, a portion of the Flame Demon Puppet would disappear.

It didn't simply absorb energy; it completely devoured a portion of the Balrog.

To use a game analogy, it's like directly deducting from your maximum health and mana bars.

Yang Xingguo did not want to use the Flame Demon Puppet to directly feed the Black Bead unless absolutely necessary.

Because once the Flame Demon Puppet is completely devoured and the Black Bead runs out of energy, that will be its death.

"Protected by a high-level curse, it really was just bait?"

At some point, an elderly man with gray hair and a cane appeared behind Yang Xingguo.

He squinted at the necklace around Yang Xingguo's neck: "But the aura emanating from the necklace can't be faked; it really is an experimental subject... Using the real thing as bait, that's quite a bold decision."

"So, what are you plotting, Yueyang Yan, by using such precious bait?"

Yang Xingguo did not hear the old man's mutterings.

Even though the distance between the old man and him was less than ten meters.

After observing for a while and finding nothing unusual, the old man turned his attention back to Yang Xingguo: "Letting an untrained person run around with experimental subjects... let me see what your backup plan is."

The old man tapped the ground with his cane.

The space directly above them distorted, forming an invisible vortex.

Two masked figures descended from the sky and landed directly in front of Yang Xingguo.

The masked figures, who had been thrown around in a daze, did a somersault to stand up straight and looked at each other with puzzled expressions.

But when they saw Yang Xingguo's astonished expression, the doubt in their eyes vanished instantly, and they prepared for battle.

The person in front of them was their target.

Although I don't know why I suddenly appeared in front of the target, I just have to catch him. I can't just watch him leave because I'm worried about a trap, can I?
