Chapters 167-168: Pursuit and Slaughter

  Chapters 167 and 168: Pursue and Kill!

  Looking at the scene of the audience leaving the stadium with a lingering look, Xiao Hong observed his surroundings again, very calmly.

  Just as Xiao Hong walked out of the room after removing the main core magic crystal from the instrument, he saw Mu Xi'er Ting standing at the door with a faint smile on her face.

  "Later on you're going to attend a press conference, are you coming or not? If you're afraid of being exposed, bring a mask." Murong Xi'er said softly.

  "Whatever, what's the point?" Xiao Hong responded, gently stroking Mu Xi'er's hand.

  "Well then, let's meet again tomorrow." Murong Xi'er thought for a moment before responding, after all it was already late.

  "Alright, see you tomorrow." Xiao Hong responded very readily.

  They chatted with each other for a while, and then parted ways with some reluctance.

  As he watched the figure of Xianmu Xi'er fade into the distance, Xiao Hong's subtle gentle expression finally dissipated. He glanced around casually, then stood up, put on his huge sunglasses, and walked out of the stadium, preparing to return home in a very low-key manner.

  However, just as Xiao Hong walked out of the stadium and into a dark corner, he couldn't help but notice that there was a faint glow on his sleeve.

  Seeing this scene, Xiao Hong's eyebrows tightened involuntarily, his expression filled with astonishment, and in an instant, the hairs on his body seemed to stand up.

  This fluorescence, he recognized it, is very likely to be the bodily fluid of one of the sub-insects of the death spirit insect! It's usually used as a marker, and the mother insect can follow this mark to find its prey!

  "Trouble." Xiao Hong's heart involuntarily let out such a sound.

  What then entered Xiao Hong's ears was an extremely dense "buzzing" sound, quickly activating the night vision function on his solar eyes. With a slight glance, Xiao Hong could see that to his right, densely packed like a swarm of bees, there were over a thousand flies flying straight towards him!

  With the help of night vision goggles, Xiao Hong could clearly identify that the object rushing straight towards him was a bullet ant, with a hard shell at its front end and a strong acidic liquid hidden in its abdomen.

  If it hits a person's body, it is like a bullet of the devil, but what is even more frightening is strong acid, corroding the wound and having extremely great destructive power, and it is also very difficult to deal with. It is also one kind of larva of dead soul worm.

  Such information flashed through Xiao Hong's mind, and then Xiao Hong didn't dare to be slow for a moment, suddenly speeding up his footsteps and jumping forward with a fish-like movement.

  Hundreds and thousands of bullets whizzed by, dodging was not in time, and they hit the thick metal wall on the left side of Xiao Hong's sports field.

  Boom boom boom....

  A series of crashes later, the wall behind Xiao Hong, less than two meters away, had already formed a dense cluster of bullet holes, with green sticky liquid still stuck to it. After a moment, the metal wall began to dissolve.

  Such a discovery made the already highly alert nerves tense up, and a signal was transmitted to Xiao Hong's brain, that is, Miao Chen not only wanted to find him but also wanted to kill him!

  Of course, this was not beyond Xiao Hong's expectations. At the same time, Xiao Hong had taken out the spiritual snake and dark blue magic bead from the magic bag and activated them one after another.

  "It's not easy to find you, a student from the branch school. Being able to stay in the control room of the stadium for a long time, it seems like no one else would be here except you." Suddenly, Miao Chen's voice came from the darkness, filled with coldness.

  With such a voice, Miao Chen walked out from the corner of a wall with his arms around his chest, his expression seemingly calm and without any ripples.

  At the same time, behind a tree trunk only about ten meters away from Xiao Hong, three people also flashed out, wrapping Xiao Hong in a relatively secluded shadow of a huge stadium.

  He glanced around, narrowed his eyes, and without guessing, Xiao Hong also knew that these people were not ordinary, a hard fight, just one Miao Chen was enough to make him suffer, involuntarily, the corners of Xiao Hong's eyes moved slightly.

  "Originally, I was looking for you just to pull in, but now it's not possible. Whoever dares to make a move on the Miao family will only have one outcome - seeking death." Miao Chen responded, with the last few words clearly carrying a hint of murderous intent.

  At the same time, Xiao Hong could also see that the three people in the distance had all activated their battle tattoos.

  "Hmm, hmm."

  At this time, Xiao Hong suddenly let out a few cold laughs without warning, giving people an extremely strange feeling, with a hint of complacency and fearlessness, but more like the other party had already fallen into his trap, only without any panic.

  "What are you laughing at?" The laughter, apparently, made Miao Chen feel surprised. In his understanding, people at this time should be either solemn or fearful. Was the laughter a false show of bravado?

  Miao Chen was somewhat at a loss.

  Xiao Hong didn't respond, but stretched out his hand with a leather glove and pointed to Miao Chen's back.

  Miao Chen naturally wouldn't fall for it: "You think this little trick would work on me..."

  Before Miao Chen could finish what he was saying, Xiao Hong had already driven the spiritual snake to its limits, his body flashing as he opened up all of his Qi cyclones to their maximum, and in a flash of lightning, he charged out to the right side.

  What Xiao Hong used was the inertial psychological difference. In short, normal people encountering this situation would instinctively think that the other party is plotting something and as long as they don't turn their head, the other party won't be able to escape. Therefore, under this instinct, people's vigilance often unconsciously decreases in situations where they haven't turned their head, mistakenly thinking that as long as the other party is within their field of vision, they won't make any sudden moves.

  In fact, sometimes this is a misconception. Xiao Hong has grasped this point and can be said to have no choice but to resort to this method. Although they guard against it day and night, the detection ability of the dead spirit insect is simply too powerful.

  After all, Xiao Hong is human, not a machine, and can't be one hundred percent vigilant.

  Xiao Hong was like the wind, flashing before his eyes in an instant. Miao Chen's expression changed suddenly, and it could be said that he had already prepared for Xiao Hong to escape at any time. However, what he did not expect was that Xiao Hong's Wind Trace was so agile, without needing any adjustments, it could quickly advance in the direction he wanted to go.

  "Stop him!" Miao Chen almost instinctively instructed his three companions who came with him.

  However, at this time, looking back at Xiao Hong, he had already swiftly brushed past someone's side and was sprinting towards the street on the other side. In an instant, his speed had exceeded 60 kilometers per hour.

  "Pursue!" Miao Chen ordered quickly, also activating the wind patterns on his body. He closely followed Xiao Hong's back, knowing that if he let Xiao Hong escape now, it would be like stirring up a hornet's nest. Later, it would be even harder to find any clues.

  The other three Miao family confidants also didn't dare to slack off, and they all activated their Wind Marks, closely following behind Miao Chen.

  It can be said that in terms of speed, the fourth-order wind pattern used by Miao Chen is absolutely not inferior to Ling She, and even slightly better. After all, no matter how strange the structure of Ling She is, it is still a first-order rider.

  However, in terms of flexibility, Ling She with its sixteen adjustable air swirls would be far superior to Miao Chen and the others.

  She slightly turned her head, seeing Miao Chen constantly approaching, with a dense cluster of light points flashing on his right hand like fireflies. Xiao Hong narrowed his eyes and suddenly made a nearly 90-degree turn, his body swaying as he flashed into another street area. He quickly took out a magic signal bomb from his pocket and pressed it against the sky above the Kaga Sports Stadium!

  Miao Chen, who was constantly chasing behind him, saw Xiao Hong make a 90-degree sharp turn as smoothly as an eel, without any hindrance. The corners of his eyes twitched involuntarily, and a hint of surprise flashed in his gaze.

  For Miao Chen, who already has a good understanding of the Wind Pattern, it is clear that to achieve such agile dodging, not only does one need a special wind pattern, but also extremely strong control accuracy.

  At the same time, a signal flare was also shot out from Xiao Hong's direction and quickly exploded in the air above the Kagawa Sports Stadium, forming a magnificent red firework!

  It's broken.

  Miao Chen's heart moved involuntarily, he was very clear that this was Xiao Hong's distress signal.

  "Don't let him go, keep chasing!" Miao Chen responded, also making a quick turn, but compared to Xiao Hong, he obviously lost some acceleration during the 90-degree turn, and after the turn, he was again pulled away by Xiao Hong for a certain distance.

  However, since he has come this far, Miao Chen has no way back and can only kill Xiao Hong at all costs!

  As for what will happen next, let's talk about it later!

  At the Kagah sports stadium, with Muxi'er's concert having thoroughly ended, the closed sky canopy of the stadium slowly opened and a huge firework exploded above their heads, naturally drawing the attention of the workers.

  "Wow, so beautiful." The workers all sighed in unison.

  However, Shang Mo, who had been supervising the workers all along, saw the crimson-colored ribbon flower and his eyes widened in surprise. Earlier, Xiao Hong had told Mei Jie and several producers that if anyone was hostile to him, this would be a distress signal!

  With this realization, Shang Mo immediately turned around and sprinted towards the reception hall in the stadium.

  At this time, Meijer and Muxi were being bombarded with crazy questions from media reporters, among which the most asked was a student from a certain branch school.

  Bang!

  Just then, the door of the living room was suddenly opened. Before everyone could react, Shang Mo, who was covered in sweat, quickly ran to Meijer's side.

  "Lao Mo, what are you doing? Can't you see there are reporters here?" Mei Jie put on a smiling face and scolded in a low voice, after all, every move they made now might end up on the headlines tomorrow.

  "Boss, something's happened, Xiao Lao Da is in trouble. I just saw his distress signal on the empty sports field, it looks like he's being targeted." Shang Mo said as quietly as possible, his expression grave and serious.

  "What?" Hearing this, Meijer's feigned smile suddenly froze, replaced by shock. Now, no one was more aware than Meijer of Xiao Hong's value and his irreplaceable position in the Maine company.

  Chapter 168: Counterattack!

  "Sorry, everyone. Today's press conference is over." Mayor Mei suddenly stood up and gave a perfunctory sentence to the media reporters before pulling her silent arm and walking out of the hall.

  Muxi'er, who had been holding the ball all along, also got up slightly and expressed her apologies before walking out as well.

  "What's going on?" Meijer anxiously asked Shangmo, her eyes almost spitting fire as she came to a quiet corner.

  "Just now I was supervising the workers, and then, above the stadium, Xiao Hong's pre-arranged distress signal sounded." Shang Mo said, pointing outside the window.

  Only in the night sky where the fireworks have dissipated, there is still a wisp of smoke that has not dispersed.

  "Where did the fireworks come from?" Majer asked.

  "Northwest direction." He replied silently.

  Mei Jie didn't ask anything else and quickly took out a communication talisman from her pocket and contacted Jiao Qi Shan.

  "Hey, Mei old brother, first of all congratulations to you, the concert was a huge success, why are you coming to me to report the good news?" Soon, Jiao Qi Shan's leisurely voice came from the communication tattoo.

  "Jiao Ge, no need to say more, please gather the top players from Mellon's team and search in the northwest direction of Taiwu City, we have someone who has encountered trouble." Mei Jie responded.

  "Who is it? From your tone, little brother, it seems like he's no ordinary person?" Jiao Qishan asked, his tone becoming somewhat serious.

  "Xiao Hong." Mei Jie only replied with these two words.

  "What?" In an instant, Jiao Qishan, who was originally quite serious in tone, couldn't help but utter such a sound. As the core figure of the Kulong Group, he naturally knew Xiao Hong's name and understood his value as well as his position at Meiyin Company.

  "Hey, little brother, don't worry, I'll gather all the top experts from Melon Ridge to search for his whereabouts as soon as possible." Jiao Qishan responded, his tone now filled with gravity compared to his earlier teasing.

  After losing contact, Mei Jie saw Mu Xi'er standing beside her at this time, with big eyes and a hint of tears in the corner of her eyes, her mouth slightly open.

  "What's wrong with Xiao Hong?" Mu Xi'er asked, almost in tears. She and Xiao Hong had just revealed their love for each other yesterday, and she didn't want anything to happen to him.

  "I suspect he was murdered, and it's very likely that someone from the Hongbo financial group did it." Mei Jie didn't have the mood to care about Mu Xi'er's feelings at this moment, so she just threw out these words and picked up her communication talisman again to contact Mei Long. However, at this time, Mei Jie was shocked to discover that Mei Long's communication talisman was turned off.

  "Silently, you find two people to escort Xi'er back. I'll personally lead a team to search for her in Tai Wu City." Mei Jie responded, his expression filled with severity.

  "No, I want to go with you to find Xiao Hong." Murong Xi'er suddenly said.

  "No way, it's too dangerous for you." Major responded bluntly and then sprinted all the way out of the stadium and into his own tattooed car.

  At the same time, Xiao Hong was still wandering around in the streets, his brain constantly spinning wildly, trying to find a way out of the predicament.

  Looking back at Miao Chen and others, the wind pattern they drove was lacking in agility, but in terms of speed, it was still ahead of Xiao Hong's. Every time Xiao Hong opened up a certain distance through high-difficulty turns, Miao Chen and others would quickly catch up.

  Miao Chen never launched any attacks on Xiao Hong again since their first meeting, apparently waiting for an opportunity to strike a fatal blow!

  Xiao Hong was naturally very clear about this, and his heart was also hanging in the air, his nerves were tight, and a thin layer of sweat had already seeped out on his forehead.

  Obviously, Miao Chen's approach is to launch a continuous attack, making it even more unbearable.

  Of course, Xiao Hong himself was not a person who would sit and wait for death. In the process of crazy running, he had also activated his commonly used battle tattoos, ready to launch a self-defense counterattack at any time!

  After a good ten or more minutes, Xiao Hong, who had started the stormy wind, completely left Bai Huan District and entered Gu Lan District, still heading northwest.

  As for the terrain of Gulan District, Miao Chen, who had grown up in Taiwu City since childhood, was naturally familiar with it.

  He slightly raised his head, and saw that in front of him were two buildings over 20 meters high, with only about 5 meters of space between them. For Fengwen, this was already a very narrow passageway.

  If they were to drive him there, launch an attack and give him room to dodge, it would be a rare occurrence; either stop using the Wind Mark to dodge or crash head-on into the wall, and in either case, Xiao Hong would be surrounded and killed by the four of them once again.

  "Park Il, Son Nam, you two surround and block the escape routes of a certain student at the branch school. Jun Qi, follow me to chase." Miao Chen quickly instructed, while Park Il and Son Nan were both Tier 3 Riders, and Jun Qi was slightly weaker, a Tier 2 Rider.

  "I understand." "Got it."

  Pu Yi and Shan Nan Qi responded in unison, then one left and one right accelerated the wind pattern's thrust, forming a triangle that surrounded Xiao Hong in the middle, blocking Xiao Hong's left and right paths. The only way out was a small alley between two buildings.

  His gaze flickered back and forth, and Xiao Hong naturally noticed that Pu Yi and Shan Nan on either side also knew their purpose. However, Xiao Hong didn't struggle at this moment, but instead slightly bit the corner of his mouth with his teeth and accelerated into the alley. At the same time, a not-too-bright energy sphere had slowly formed above his right hand.

  Miao Chen, who had been closely following behind him, saw this scene and his mouth corners slightly curved, a pleased smile appeared on his face, and from the back of his right hand, a long, green-glowing worm also slowly crawled out, which was another kind of dead spirit insect - male fly.

  Miao Chen immediately followed with a cold smile, pushing the swirling thrust of the wind pattern to its maximum, and also charged into the alley.

  At this moment, Xiao Hong is less than ten meters away from him, and this distance has completely entered the range of the male fly's strike.

  "Branch school student, whoever you are, go to hell." Miao Chen hummed a sound, his right arm waved, and the tail of the male fly suddenly sprayed out a strong gas, like a magic bullet, directly hitting Xiao Hong's back.

  At this time, in Miao Chen's view, Xiao Hong either stopped and dodged or directly accepted death!

  Squeak...... Almost at the same time Miao Chen made such an analysis, a shrill sound of air swirling and rubbing against each other suddenly rang out.

  Looking at Xiao Hong in The Whirlwind Fighter, while the whirlwind is spinning, he suddenly makes a elegant turn without changing the direction of the whirlwind!

  Just as the male fly was about to hit Xiao Hong, Xiao Hong had already turned his body sideways. The male fly brushed past Xiao Hong's chest and crashed onto the ground more than ten meters away. The explosive bodily fluids came into contact with the air, instantly forming a high-temperature flame with a diameter of over two meters.

  "Waltz spin?!"

  Miao Chen couldn't help but let out such a sound, he recognized the action Xiao Hong was doing, and his originally triumphant expression was filled with a hint of shock!

  He was very clear that this action, in the city of Tai Wu, could be done by only a few people, at most no more than three, and they were all Yu Shi-level figures when driving the flow of Yun.

  Like Xiao Hong, using the wind to complete this action on the ground is unparalleled, and the timing of completion is just right. Whether it's a little earlier or later, it will be blown away by the flies, and the result is self-evident.

  But this was only the beginning of Miao Chen's shock, because he could clearly see that at the moment Xiao Hong turned around, his right arm had already risen, and his index finger was pointing directly at him, and then...

  Whoosh!

  A black and green striped feather-like energy body shot straight at Miao Chen's brow.

  "This..." Miao Chen couldn't help but take a cold breath, performing a high-difficulty dodge, which had already surprised him, but he never expected that the guy in front of him could actually counterattack while dodging.

  If it were someone with strength similar to Xiao Hong's, they would have already been shot dead by now. However, no matter what, Miao Chen was still a fourth-level cultivator of the Yu Zhe Sect, and his palms quickly crossed each other as the black Dead Soul Insect crawled all over his hands and body for defense.

  However, just as Miao Chen made a defensive posture in an instant, his expression changed again! It was seen that just when the black and green "feathers" were about to hit Miao Chen, they suddenly deflected and brushed past his ear.

  "Not good!" Miao Chen suddenly realized something, his eyes widened involuntarily, and then he abruptly turned his head.

  Puff! Bang!

  Along with this dull sound, looking at the feather-shaped energy bullet that directly exploded on Jun Qi's forehead not far behind Miao Chen!

  The entire head suddenly burst like a bursting balloon, exploding on the spot, with blood splashing everywhere!

  Plop!

  The next moment, the headless corpse moved forward a short distance, and then fell to the ground like an inanimate object. The driving wind pattern continued to push his body, rolling wildly on the ground!

  "A certain student of the branch school! You......" Seeing this scene, Miao Chen's expression was like a grocery store, with shock, anger, and waves of sympathy.

  These seven can be said to be the confidants of the Miao family, but what makes Miao Chen feel slightly numb is that the guy can actually launch an attack while doing a waltz spin!

  Look at Xiao Hong again, wearing a huge sunglasses, glance at Qi Qi slightly, his expression didn't change at all, quickly manipulate the spirit snake, flash past, bypass the flames in front, and rush straight to the other end of the alley.

  After the chase just now, Xiao Hong naturally could see who was strong and who was weak. Among them, Jun Qi, who was a second-level charioteer, was the easiest to deal with. As for the other three, it was different. Therefore, after successfully ambushing, Xiao Hong didn't stay and tried his best to get rid of Miao Chen.

  Looking back at Miao Chen, Xiao Hong's approach was already suffocating, he didn't expect that a student from this branch school would be so ruthless.

  "Keep chasing, today no matter what we can't let him go!" Miao Chen continued to command the two companions beside him.
