I am an insect

The man in sunglasses let out a muffled groan, and faint wisps of smoke appeared around his legs. He suddenly lunged backward with astonishing speed, dodging Ji Ye's second attack.

At the top of the stairs, one after another, men and women in white hats rushed out.

Ji Ye injured the man in sunglasses and forced him back, then wanted to go further and kill the weasel perched on his shoulder.

He suspected that these people were able to find this place because of the weasel. Since the dog called "Mantis" could smell his mental entity's aura, and the weasel's sense of smell was no worse than a dog's, could it also smell his mental entity's aura, and that's why it led these people here?

If that's the case, no matter where I run, these people will catch up to me if I don't kill this weasel.

He tried to seize the opportunity to attack the weasel on the sunglasses-wearing man's shoulder with his left hook, but the sunglasses-wearing man's dodging speed was astonishing. He suddenly accelerated and retreated, widening the distance between them. Ji Ye knew that he had lost the chance to kill the weasel.

Seeing that reinforcements had arrived, Ji Ye wondered if there were even more powerful adult insects hidden among them, and knew he couldn't linger in the fight.

Putting everything else aside, if Tian Cang were to reappear, along with the man in sunglasses, and they joined forces, he would surely die.

These thoughts flashed through Ji Ye's mind. Without further hesitation, he leaped onto the rooftop platform of another building that was very close to him, only three or four meters apart.

Lin Ya had already jumped over before him and was waving at him.

"Hurry up!" Ji Ye shouted. He was much faster than Lin Ya now and didn't need her to stop and wait for him.

Lin Ya realized what was happening and immediately turned and ran wildly into the darkness in the distance.

A man in a white hat leaped up from behind, and just as he reached mid-air, Ji Ye landed on the edge of the platform. Seeing that the man in the white hat had also jumped over, he swung his black hook at him.

The man in the white hat was in mid-air and unable to dodge. Regret welled up in his heart, but it was too late. He was struck in the chest by the black hook, let out a scream, and immediately fell to the ground.

This scene stunned the men and women in white hats who had originally wanted to catch up. They hesitated slightly, but Ji Ye had already turned around and chased after Lin Ya in the direction she had fled.

The sunglasses-wearing man with a missing arm didn't give chase. Instead, he took off his sunglasses, revealing a pair of eyes with vertical pupils resembling those of a cat or fox, which looked inexplicably eerie.

Although his left arm was severed, he reacted quickly and retracted the mental entity within his left arm, so the mental entity was not physically damaged. Only his physical body was injured, affecting his combat power.

"Damn Ji Ye, I'll kill you tonight! Go find me a new body!"

He suddenly turned around and gave orders to the men and women in white hats around him.

"Yes!" The men and women in white hats were startled when he stared at them with his vertical pupils. They quickly jumped off the platforms around them to find new bodies for the man in sunglasses.

"You little mice, I'll let you escape for a while... This kind of cat-and-mouse game is more interesting... No matter where you hide, tonight, Lord Huang... will find you..."

The man stretched out his right hand and gently stroked the weasel on his shoulder, letting out a low chuckle. His vertical pupils gleamed with an eerie light.

A long luxury limousine sped through the streets. Tian Cang, sitting in the passenger seat, had a very ugly expression and exuded a terrifying aura. The driver next to him had cold sweat on his forehead.

Under Tian Cang's orders, he drove at breakneck speed, pushing the car to its limit and running several red lights, nearly colliding with another vehicle. Only then did Tian Cang order him to slow down.

Finally, the car stopped in front of a seemingly ordinary, old, dilapidated six-story building.

Tian Cang opened the car door and, like a whirlwind, rushed towards the old, dilapidated building.

The door in front of them appeared to be ajar, but when Tian Cang opened it, he smelled a strong, pungent stench of blood.

This old, dilapidated six-story building is luxuriously decorated and is where Tian Cang lives. It is also their headquarters in the "Dacheng District". It is usually heavily guarded, but tonight the entire action team has been mobilized, so there is inevitably a gap in the defense here.

The high-end carpet was now stained red with blood, and several corpses lay on the ground—all members who had stayed behind.

Tian Cang's face was gloomy as he rushed in. He could see corpses lying on the ground from time to time. All nine people who remained here were dead, including a minor celebrity that Tian Cang had been infatuated with recently.

Although she was just a minor celebrity, she was good-looking, had a great figure, and was even better in bed, which made Tian Cang very fond of her.

This little starlet stayed here tonight. Tian Cang originally planned to take good care of her after dealing with his teacher and Ji Ye, but unexpectedly, she also died here.

Tian Cang's face was extremely gloomy, and the anger within him had reached the critical point of being about to completely erupt.

Finally, he entered his study, a forbidden area where no unauthorized personnel were allowed to enter, not even his beloved little starlet.

As he entered the study, he immediately saw a set of bookshelves against the wall that had been pushed open, and behind the bookshelves was a door, which was now also open.

Upon seeing this, Tian Cang's heart trembled slightly.

This is his secret room, where he keeps all his most important things. No one but himself knows about it. If anyone would know, it would be the workers who designed and decorated this house.

Could it have been leaked from their mouths?

Tian Cang began to regret why he hadn't been ruthless enough to do it back then.

He rushed into the secret room, where there were many jewels and gold. Of course, this wealth was just worldly stuff to him, and the other party's purpose was obviously not these gold and jewels, so he didn't take any of them.

Tian Cang's eyes were fixed on one of the open cabinets, which was now empty, containing nothing at all.

But only Tian Cang knew that there should have been a safe here, and now, in the entire secret room, only this safe had vanished.

"That damned teacher—"

Tian Cang roared from his throat, his eyes wide open, blood vessels rising from his eyeballs, showing that his anger had reached its peak.

He picked up his phone and immediately dialed the number of the man in sunglasses.

"I need Lord Huang. Get me to headquarters! There must still be traces of Master's insect tools here. Find Master's whereabouts, at all costs! I must find that damned bastard Master tonight!"

Tian Cang roared from his throat, like a trapped wild beast howling.

He had always used Ji Ye as bait, hoping to catch the big fish, the teacher, and wipe out all the members of this secret organization.

In his eyes, the teacher was the prey, and he was a skilled hunter.

Now he realized that he was the teacher's prey.
