"Let's find a quiet place."

I said, looking at the increasingly dense city buildings ahead.

"Don't make a move on the main road; it's easy to get into trouble."

"Understood, hold on tight."

Li Qing skillfully steered the wheel with both hands.

Suddenly, the SUV, right at the end of the yellow light at an intersection, abruptly turned right and drove off the wide main road.

Next, Li Qing fully demonstrated his driving skills in the "Jiangcheng Dividing the Sea" maneuver.

He deliberately avoided the brightly lit and crowded commercial areas, and instead chose to explore the old city areas with complex road conditions and few surveillance cameras, as well as the urban villages slated for demolition.

We wandered through those narrow streets.

Although the gray minivan behind us was almost overtaken several times, it always managed to reappear at the edge of the rearview mirror at the crucial moment.

This, on the contrary, further confirmed my guess.

There are definitely experts inside the car who can pinpoint our presence.

Finally, after driving around for about ten minutes, Li Qing drove the car into an old alleyway that had been mostly relocated and was surrounded by broken walls and abandoned bungalows.

Most of the streetlights were broken, making the area dimly lit, and the only sound was the low hum of car engines.

Li Qing spotted a narrow entrance ahead, stepped on the gas, and the SUV swerved sharply into it.

Then, he slammed on the brakes and brought the car to a steady stop at the end of a tall, red-brick dead-end alley.

Li Qing's choice of location was quite subtle.

This place is a perfect "pocket formation".

The alley was very narrow, barely wide enough for one car to pass through.

Once a vehicle enters, there is absolutely no room for it to turn around.

If they dare to come in, I'll just block the exit, creating a situation where I can trap them and beat them.

As soon as the car came to a stop, Li Qing quickly turned off the engine and switched off all the headlights.

Without any hesitation, I gripped the car door handle with my right hand and turned to make a gesture towards Li Qing.

Li Qing nodded knowingly.

Then, I pushed open the car door, grabbed the black knife, and nimbly jumped out of the car.

I looked up at one side of the dead-end alley entrance, where there was a row of abandoned two-story flat-roofed houses, with some abandoned scaffolding erected outside the walls.

It's perfect for ambushing people.

At this moment, the Mountain-Shaking Force quietly activated, and as my blood and qi surged, my legs were filled with explosive power.

Then, I pushed off the ground with both feet and instantly flew into the air.

Using the protruding bricks on the wall and the steel pipes of the scaffolding as stepping stones, I silently and skillfully flipped onto the roof of the two-story flat-roofed house by continuously using the momentum in mid-air.

The whole process was so smooth and fast that it didn't even make a sound.

As soon as my feet touched the ground, I immediately crouched down and hid myself behind a low wall at the edge of the roof.

At the same time, I calmed myself down, suppressed my murderous aura, and minimized my presence.

At that moment, my heartbeat, my breathing, and even the heat emanating from my body all dropped to their lowest point.

Even a master of the Dan realm would never discover that someone was hiding here unless they saw it with their naked eye.

I crouched behind the low wall, looking down at the entrance to the dead end.

In the dim light, the narrow alleyway was filled with a musty, dusty smell.

My five senses were amplified to their maximum by the cool air; I could clearly hear even the sound of a mouse running by.

Less than half a minute later, the sound of a car engine came from the alley entrance.

Two faint beams of car headlights swept across the mottled walls on both sides of the alley.

Immediately afterwards, the dark gray minivan slowly drove into the dead end.

The van stopped about ten meters away from our SUV.

The car lights went out, and the alleyway fell into darkness once again.

After turning off the van, Li Qing pushed open the driver's side door and slowly got out.

He didn't make any defensive gestures; instead, he casually leaned against the car door and pulled a box of cigarettes, which was slightly deformed from the pocket of his shorts.

Then, he pulled out a lighter, put it in his mouth, and then lit the windproof lighter with a "snap".

A pale blue flame flickered in the dim alley, igniting the cigarette.

Li Qing took a deep breath, exhaled a cloud of grayish-white smoke, and casually looked through the smoke at the dark gray minivan parked not far away.

He looked exactly like an ordinary driver who had driven into a dead end and got lost, and was stopping to smoke a cigarette to relieve his boredom.

Across from him, the door of the minivan was suddenly and violently pulled open from the inside.

Immediately afterwards, three figures filed out of the carriage, spreading out in a fan shape, subtly forming an encirclement around Li Qing.

All three were wearing inconspicuous dark jackets and baseball caps with the brims pulled low, obscuring their faces.

I crouched behind the low wall of the flat-roofed second-floor building, looking down at everything.

With the help of the cool aura at my brow enhancing my five senses, I was able to clearly perceive the physical condition and aura fluctuations of the three people below.

In my perception network, these three people are like three torches in the dark, exceptionally conspicuous.

The two people standing on the far left and in the middle had their blood and qi surging like rivers, and a condensed internal energy was faintly circulating in their meridians.

The aura of these two is definitely no weaker than that of the evil cultivator Qiu Feng, whom we just killed at the pig farm.

Two genuine experts at the Dan realm.

The fact that the "big boss" hiding behind the antique shop could send two experts at the Dan realm level to carry out a tracking mission at once shows that he has a lot of resources.

The person standing on the far right had a slightly weaker aura, and his internal energy had not yet reached the stage of condensing liquid into a pill.

But when he got out of the car, he was carrying a compass.

Between two fingers of his other hand, he was holding half a piece of yellow paper with cinnabar runes drawn on it.

I recognized it at a glance; that half-yellow talisman was the material Li Qing had left outside the pig farm to set up a warning array.

It seems that this sorcerer, who had not yet reached the Dan realm, used the residual aura of this half-broken yellow talisman to follow our tire tracks and accurately catch up with us.

The leader, a Dan Realm expert, stared at Li Qing, who was leaning against the car smoking, a hint of wariness flashing in his eyes.

He clearly hadn't expected that the target he was tracking would remain so calm after being cornered.

But he didn't waste any words, nor did he try to find out why Li Qing wasn't flustered at all.

"Leave your belongings; you may leave."

The leader spoke first, addressing Li Qing.

The "thing" he was referring to was clearly the bronze military tally with the animal head that Ma Jianguo had stolen, and perhaps also the short stick with the animal head that Qiu Feng was holding.

Faced with the other party's ultimatum, Li Qing fully displayed his infuriating acting skills.

He paused for a moment in mid-air with the cigarette between his fingers, then extended his little finger and vigorously picked at his ear, making an expression as if he couldn't understand what the other person was saying at all.

"What is it?"

Li Qing flicked his cigarette ash and looked at the three assassins with an innocent expression.

"Hey guys, did you come to the wrong place to stage an accident?"

I'm just a lousy car mechanic; I just drove my car in to take a leak.

"If you're looking to rob me, I won't. But if you're going to rape me... I'm afraid my body can't handle it."
