That ID was not fake, it really came from the population department of Yari Company.
However, even Yali Company is made up of people, and there are naturally various ways to deal with people... such as spending a little money.
So Chu Yao is not afraid of Chen Yu investigating her now. At most, she can find out her identity as "Chu Ye", and the clue will end here.
She created a character for herself that had lost both parents and had been wandering the dark streets since childhood, and she deliberately spread some seemingly plausible news, which could at least delay the special envoy for a long time.
Chu Yao also really admired Mr. Shen's perseverance. It had been such a long time, and he had to keep biting herself.
She didn't rush upstairs. She went to the dungeon from the back door to take a look at Gong Xiaoran. The latter was watching some Mary Sue TV series on her tablet. When Chu Yao went over, she was wiping her tears and didn't notice anyone coming at all.
“…”
Chu Yao thought about it and still didn't say anything.
Forget it, just treat it as a holiday for her. I'll let her come back tomorrow after I've "tested" out the traitor.
Chu Yao was thinking about the things in the gang while slowly walking towards her room.
She pushed open the door and the room was pitch black. Just as she was about to turn on the light, she suddenly noticed something was wrong.
There seems to be someone in the room...
Before she could press the switch, a strong sense of crisis suddenly rose from the bottom of her heart, like an electric current rushing through her nerves, and all the hairs on her body stood up!
Chu Yao retreated without a second's thought, and in the next second, a sharp scimitar slashed out from the shadows on the side, drawing a cold arc where her neck was originally.
Chu Yao was able to dodge the attack thanks to her intuition gained from years of fighting, but even so, several strands of her hair were cut off, and a faint line of blood appeared on her neck!
Life and death were at stake, and Chu Yao had no time to hesitate. With a thought, he retracted his Soul Blade and slashed towards the source of the attack with a whistling sound!
The opponent was also decisive. After missing the first strike, he turned around and left. The Soul-Collecting Sword only hit the decoration behind the man. The vase that was originally placed there shattered into pieces, and broken flowers, plants and soil flew all over the room.
Chu Yao quickly turned on the light, but all she saw was a dark figure. Without hesitation, the figure burst through the window, the shattering glass making a loud noise.
The commotion upstairs was so loud that many people noticed it. Lin Wu rushed in with a few of her sisters.
"Are you not hurt, Sister Chu?"
"I'm fine, just keep an eye on the store!"
Chu Yao gave an instruction, then jumped down from the broken window and rushed out after the figure.
The other party did not land on the ground, but jumped onto the rooftop of the opposite building. After a brief pause, he leaped to the rooftop of the next building at an extremely fast speed.
Chu Yao followed closely behind, and her speed was not much slower. The two of them started a fierce chase between the scattered buildings!
Chu Yao heard an urgent sound of wind coming from behind her. While chasing the person, she glanced at him out of the corner of her eye and saw that Chen Yu had caught up with her, and his speed was even faster than the two people in front.
Damn it, how did he catch up with me?
This is a difficult situation. I originally wanted to use some skills of a cultivator, but now I can only rely on my feet?
The three of them chased each other, always keeping a certain distance, neither too close nor too far.
Chu Yao knew that the person in front must have come to assassinate him, but he didn't know who gave the order.
Fish Head Gang?
The chase lasted for a full ten minutes. During this period, the assassin turned several times, trying to use the cover of the building to shake off the pursuit, but how could Chu Yao let him do so? His spiritual power was secretly running in his legs, like a hunting cheetah, staring at his prey.
Finally, after several turns, the assassin was forced into a dead end by Chu Yao - he had no way to retreat, and behind him was the wide and calm Jing River.
Jinghe River runs through the entire Tianhai City, from west to east and flows into the sea.
This is a wider section of the river, and the man can either jump into the river or escape along the river bank.
"Run, why don't you run anymore!" Chu Yao shouted with her hands on her hips without blushing or panting.
The place they are in now is called Riverside Park. The cobblestone road stretches along the river bank, surrounded by green plants and scattered street lights.
Under the bright light, Chu Yao saw the man's general appearance clearly:
He was wearing a tattered black cloak, and his face was obscured by the cloak and could not be seen clearly; he was wearing a dark night leather jacket, and the scimitar that almost hit Chu Yao was now tied to his left thigh; in addition, his right hand seemed to be a little different from that of ordinary people, reflecting the color of metal under the light.
The man said nothing. Seeing Chu Yao standing still, he drew his sword with his left hand and slashed it diagonally upwards at Chu Yao.
"Good timing!" Chu Yao cried out, shifting her body to the side and taking a half step back, dodging the scimitar's attack. She didn't rush to attack, but was on guard against the man's strange right arm.
As expected, the slashing attack was just a pretense. The man didn't panic after missing his first strike, but instead rushed forward again, punching Chu Yao in the chest with his right hand.
This move came extremely fast. Chu Yao did not dodge and crossed his arms in front of him to block the punch.
She finally got a clear look at the man's right hand: it wasn't a human hand at all, but a robotic arm! A giant spherical bearing connected the bluish-gray steel arm, and numerous tiny translucent tubes clung to its surface, spreading and circling like human blood vessels.
Suddenly, a strange sound like a rotating gear came from the ball bearing on his shoulder. An unknown liquid with a blue-green glow was flowing rapidly in the densely packed pipes. Then, streams of white gas burst out from the joints. His entire arm became a straight line, and his clenched fist was like a missile, shooting out with half of his arm!
This was a strange move that Chu Yao had not expected. The arm that was blocking in front of her took the heavy blow. She felt like she was hit by a rocket. The huge force knocked her back four or five meters, and a burning pain came from her skin that was knocked down.
After launching this attack, the opponent's mechanical arm recovered again with the sound of steel bars and gears clashing. The scimitar in his left hand came out again, following him like a shadow, leaving Chu Yao no time to breathe.
"Be careful!" Shen Yu finally arrived late. He held a steel pipe that he had picked up from somewhere in his hand. He inserted it diagonally between the two of them and hit the assassin's head hard.
The sneak attack was so fast and sharp that the assassin stopped dead in his tracks and tilted his head to the side at a strange angle, narrowly avoiding the attack by a hair's breadth.
But when he dodged like this, he could no longer hold on to the cloak on his head, and it fell off in the wind as the steel pipe was swung, revealing a face that Chu Yao was familiar with.
