Night fell, the sky was dark and inky, and the sea breeze, carrying a biting chill, swept across the empty coastline.
In the distance, the waves gently lapped against the shore, making a low, monotonous sound, like the deepest sigh of nature.
At this moment, heavy snow fell, each snowflake like countless light feathers, slowly drifting down from the boundless darkness, covering this silent world.
Everything around was so quiet, so quiet that you could hear your own heartbeat.
Yet, amidst the quiet, there was an indescribable sense of oppression, as if the entire world was about to be submerged by this sudden heavy snowfall.
A bright light illuminated the thick darkness of the snow-covered night, and the roar of a car engine broke the somber silence.
Chu Liyue got out of the car, followed by Chu Nanfeng and Leng Ruxue.
Her footsteps crunched softly in the unformed snow. She stopped, her black coat fluttering in the wind, her gaze cold and fixed on the thick darkness ahead, without uttering a word.
The sound of the cold wind howling in my ears was suddenly mixed with a soft, sinister laugh.
Hehe~
The thick darkness ahead began to recede, and a faint, eerie purple light flowed, intertwining and converging, until a slender, sinister figure appeared in the wind and snow.
Aisie Hall was still wearing a long black gauze dress, with her curly silver hair falling between her temples, which made her pale skin and prominent cheekbones look even more eerie.
Her slender fingers moved gently, and a faint purple light flowed around her. Snowflakes fell around her and melted away in an eerie manner, making her appear indescribably strange and uncanny.
This was the first time Chu Nanfeng and Leng Ruxue had faced Aisie Hall directly. From the moment she appeared, their eyes never left her.
Aisie Hall's gaze seemed to possess a kind of magic that could penetrate people's hearts. Just a casual glance from her would make people unconsciously tense up and their hair stand on end.
This was the first time anyone had ever brought them such a terrible sense of fear and oppression.
"Very punctual."
Her eerie purple eyes held an unfathomable, sinister smile. She curled her lips into a soft laugh, her voice indescribably feminine and alluring, sending a chill down one's spine.
Where is he?
Chu Liyue looked at her, her eyes filled with frost, and spoke coldly.
Aisie Hall gave a soft, sinister laugh. "You're one of the few people who dares to talk to me like that."
She waved her hand lightly behind her, and footsteps came from the darkness. Several assassins dressed in black robes carried Yunmo and Chuwan, whose hands and feet were bound, out of the darkness.
Yunmo's eyes lit up the moment he saw Chu Liyue, but a hint of struggle quickly surfaced again, as if he wanted to say something, but because his mouth was covered with a gagging tape, he could only make two very soft whimpering sounds.
During the few days he and Chu Wan were taken away, they didn't actually suffer much; they were just locked up.
Before they were brought out, they weren't even restrained. Only he was temporarily immobilized by Aisie Hall using special means, making it difficult for him to escape.
He wasn't stupid. He and Chu Wan posed no threat to Aisie Hall. Her only purpose in capturing them was probably to restrain Xiao Wujie and Chu Liyue.
He felt a little guilty. He was incompetent and ended up becoming a weakness that others could use to threaten his teacher and his wife.
Being behind enemy lines, he could naturally see that Aisie Hall was probably harboring a very deep conspiracy.
Putting aside her personally, he had met no fewer than four or five S-class assassins she brought with her.
She was too terrifying, too well hidden; he didn't know if his teacher and his wife had made adequate preparations.
Release them.
Chu Liyue's long hair flew wildly as she stared sharply at Aisie Hall, her icy and intimidating aura clashing head-on with Aisie Hall's.
He was also the only one on the field who, when facing Aisie Hall, did not lose in terms of momentum.
Aisie Hall didn't care about her extremely cold tone; her eyes remained smiling as always, and her movements were somewhat nonchalant as she waved to the assassin behind her.
The assassins lowered their heads and looked down, as docile as quails. They untied Yun Mo Chu Wan's hands and feet and even thoughtfully tore off the gags for her.
Yun Mo and Chu Wan were both taken aback, seemingly not expecting Aisie Hall to release them so readily.
"You are not qualified to make me break my promise."
As if sensing their thoughts, Aisie Hall raised a seductive brow at the corner of her eye, her voice low and magnetic, yet exuding an air of nonchalant confidence that she had everything under control.
Yunmo's eye twitched slightly. It was the first time he had seen such a considerate villain, releasing people and not forgetting to explain.
She said something really rude, I wanted to punch her.
He was wary, and holding Chu Wan's hand, he quickly returned to Chu Liyue's side.
His gaze swept over the three of them, and after hesitating for a moment, he whispered to Leng Ruxue beside him:
Where are the teacher and Lao Lu?
Leng Ruxue's eyes flickered slightly. She exchanged a glance with Chu Nanfeng and shook her head at the same time, indicating that she did not know.
When they received Lu Zhufeng's message, they were still out investigating the two's whereabouts and knew very little about what had happened in the past two days.
Hehe~
"He must be sick, right?"
Although Yunmo's voice was very soft, it did not escape Aisie Hall's ears. She wore a strange smile and chuckled softly.
"Isn't his illness just what you wanted?"
"You went to all this trouble just to make him sick so he couldn't attack you, didn't you?"
Chu Liyue stood tall and elegant amidst the wind and snow, her voice so cold it could shatter ice.
Her gaze was icy as she looked at Aisie Hall, whose face wore a sinister smile. She then looked up at the swirling snowflakes and spoke in a chilling voice:
"The God Ice Heart Project aims to achieve rapid local cooling by releasing special nanoparticles into the upper atmosphere to reflect solar radiation."
She cast her cold, intimidating gaze at the sinister Aisie Hall, and said, enunciating each word clearly:
"You're the one who caused this heavy snow."
Her statement was an affirmative sentence, not an interrogative one.
Aisie Hall didn't say anything, but the smile on his face and in his eyes became more and more obvious.
"You used the Gu family massacre as a pretext to stir up the situation in the capital and lure him here."
"Through the Ice Heart Project, we will cause a sudden and unexpected drop in temperature, and then launch a night raid on the Gu residence, causing him to be frightened and disturbed, and ruining his health."
"You want to use Gu Junci to have sex with him, and then use what you said last night to completely alienate me from him."
Her gaze was icy as she stared directly into Ashley Hall's eyes. "But Gu Junci failed. Although you successfully sowed discord between me and him, you did not achieve the desired effect."
"They used Yunmo and Awan to lure me here so they could deal with me first, and then target him."
She paused for a second, her tone cold and deep: "But your ultimate target... is me, not him."
Aisie Hall's smile tightened slightly. She looked at Chu Liyue, a hint of coldness in her eyes, and slowly spoke:
"Miss Chu is very smart."
