Chapter 2077: Chapter 2078: Do You Think I Can’t Kill You?

After Ye Xunhuan finished explaining everything, he left with Jim.

Jim also called in Forsa, along with others from the Soviets, to protect Qiu Ruoxi to prevent any accidents.

Everything was done very thoroughly.

After leaving the hotel with Jim, Ye Xunhuan did not ask Jim where they were headed. Ye Xunhuan knew well that even if he did ask, Jim might not tell. If Jim wanted to say something, he would have already told him at the hotel.

So Ye Xunhuan didn’t ask, letting Jim lead him to the destination.

Inside the car, Jim was driving while Ye Xunhuan sat in the passenger seat, with the car stereo playing music.

Ye Xunhuan and Jim chatted happily, making the atmosphere inside the car very harmonious.

Perhaps because of his high skill and courage, Ye Xunhuan did not care where Jim was taking him, nor did he pay attention to changes around him, appearing completely unconcerned and showing great trust in Jim.

After some time, the car stopped next to a factory that looked abandoned and desolate for many years.

After getting out of the car, the howling north wind immediately hit, instinctively prompting Ye Xunhuan to wrap his clothes tightly around him!

"What, you’re cold?"

"No, this place just feels eerie!" Ye Xunhuan said casually.

At Ye Xunhuan’s level, cold does not affect him, but this place indeed felt eerie, making him uncomfortable all over.

Jim nodded: "I feel the same way!"

"What kind of place is this?"

"A steel mill. It had issues before, and the owner quit. Initially, he wanted to rent it out but nobody ever did!"

"Why?"

"Rumor has it that this place is haunted!" Jim whispered, "The Ax Gang used to do shady things here."

"But recently, strange things have been happening frequently. Last time, I caught a member of the Ax Gang and asked him!"

"What did he say?"

"He also said this place is haunted. Recently, they were doing a deal, but all the brothers died!" Jim said calmly, "Since then, the Ax Gang members haven’t come here."

"I also sent my people to investigate, but they haven’t returned. I fear they might be in danger."

Jim’s face showed a hint of guilt.

It seemed like if it wasn’t for him, his people wouldn’t be missing now.

"What did you discover last time?" 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

"A very terrifying person!" The guilt vanished from Jim’s face, replaced by gravity: "I fought him but couldn’t catch a glimpse of him!"

"If my skills weren’t decent, I might have died at his hands."

Listening to Jim, Ye Xunhuan’s expression became somber as well.

"We must be extremely cautious when we go in!"

Ye Xunhuan nodded, said no more, and followed Jim cautiously inside, while both of their eyes continuously scanned the surroundings, looking cautious and as if facing a formidable enemy.

This time, Jim and Ye Xunhuan walked side by side!

Once they entered the abandoned factory, an ominous and damp atmosphere hit them, mixed with a musty smell, and Ye Xunhuan seemed to catch a faint scent of blood wafting through.

Though faint, Ye Xunhuan did indeed smell it.

Jim and Ye Xunhuan crept forward like thieves.

Due to the pitch-black surroundings, their actions were slow.

As they crept forward, they seemed to hear a sobbing sound ahead, like a woman crying, or maybe a baby. Combined with the complete darkness where even lifting a finger wouldn’t help, it created an eerie, terrifying feeling, even making their hairs stand on end.

If it were a timid person, they’d be scared stiff, maybe even pee their pants, and would definitely run away, never daring to venture forward.

But Ye Xunhuan and Jim did not retreat.

At this moment, they were like explorers, showing no fear, continuously moving forward.

Suddenly, a sharp, grating laugh echoed around, making both of their faces change.

At the next moment, a black figure flashed past them, whipping up a breeze.

The terrifying speed was almost a hallucination, but Ye Xunhuan and Jim were certain something had indeed passed by them!

Facing such weird occurrences, neither Ye Xunhuan nor Jim showed any intention of retreating, continuing to move forward.

However, they had barely taken two steps when a sudden white light appeared ahead, like a shooting star falling from mid-air, swiftly rushing towards them.

Witnessing this, Ye Xunhuan’s expression turned cold, and with a flick of his right hand, a three-foot-long green blade appeared!

"Swish!"

As soon as the longsword was in hand, Ye Xunhuan swiftly swung it!

The sword slashed, and a gleam appeared in the dark, like brilliant fireworks, illuminating the surroundings!

"Boom!"

The sword light fiercely collided with the white light, causing a thunderous rumble.

As the rumble resounded, several more white lights shot from front and back, like arrows, aiming to pierce Ye Xunhuan and Jim to death.

Jim’s Soft Sword was now in hand too, slicing through the air and creating three fire rings, quickly moving out!

Meanwhile, Ye Xunhuan was not idle, swiftly swinging his sword, the sharp blade striking violently forward.

"Boom boom boom..."

Thunderous noises continually echoed, sounding very piercing.

As the rumble faded, a shrill laugh immediately resonated around them: "Jim, I let you leave alive last time, yet you dare come back with someone? Do you think I can’t kill you?"
