"Li Ang finally decided to avenge Suteir!?"

Zhong Yi was overjoyed, only now understanding why Li Ang hadn't brought Suteir with him.

The Demon Suppression Division was a terrifying opponent.

Setting aside their strength and numbers, if they accidentally got a glimpse of your face, you'd likely be hunted by the government for the rest of your life.

"Let the dangerous things be handled by the grown-up!"

Zhong Yi muttered to himself, involuntarily quickening his pace... The mission difficulty wasn't small, but it was easier to fight than the old man who was high on demonic medicine earlier.

With a surge of passion, Zhong Yi dealt a ruthless blow to the two Demon Suppression Division members, quickly completing the stage.

"They were just two small fry; that leader... he must die!"

Zhong Yi said, his eyes gleaming with a cold light after clearing the traces.

Unlike Suteir, he had witnessed the entire massacre.

Stan, the one in charge, was the true culprit and also the most dangerous person.

The targets ➤ NоvеⅠight ➤ (Read more on our source) killed in this mission were merely two subordinates from the six-person team at the time.

"But this mission is marked with 【One】 at the end, so there must be 【Two】 and 【Three】..."

Relying on his many years of Illusion Realm experience, Zhong Yi immediately made a deduction, then strode home.

"I'll go back and give Suteir a surprise~"

...He pushed open the door.

The room was empty, without a sound.

"Suteir?"

Zhong Yi called out, but there was no response.

"Main Mission: Search the room and investigate Suteir's whereabouts."

Looking at the mission prompt in the upper right corner, Zhong Yi frowned.

He quickly began to search.

There were many of Suteir's personal belongings in the room, all glowing with a faint, interactive light.

Zhong Yi picked up the doll on the table and quickly found a crucial clue.

Tucked into the doll's chest was a note, written in delicate handwriting:

"Li Ang, I don't want to have nightmares anymore."

Zhong Yi's breathing hitched.

The short line of text was like a bolt from the blue.

Suteir had said last night that she kept dreaming of her brother's tragic death, and only by personally killing the enemy could she find relief.

Which meant... she had gone for revenge.

Alone.

Zhong Yi folded the note and saw a drawing on the back.

A tall man wearing sunglasses, holding hands with a smiling short-haired girl.

Below it was a word, also the first word Suteir had taught him: "Love."

In an instant, Zhong Yi's eyes turned bloodshot, and with a "boom," he shot out of the room like a cannonball.

The location of the Demon Suppression Division, Stan's workshop... Suteir had revealed all this information when she tried to hire Li Ang last time.

"Main Mission Updated!"

"Main Mission: Go to the Demon Suppression Division and rescue Suteir."

At the same time, the Illusion Realm once again entered a cinematic plot segment.

This was the scene on Suteir's side when Li Ang went to perform the mission alone.

The young girl struggled internally for a long time in the courtyard downstairs, finally deciding to take revenge with her own hands.

She disguised herself as a food vendor, waiting in the crowd for Stan to arrive.

Little did she know, a single glance was enough for the sharp Stan to spot something amiss.

Then, the positions of hunter and prey instantly swapped.

As soon as Suteir followed Stan into the room, she was easily captured by him.

Stan's ferocious and terrifying expression, coupled with his chilling words, directly turned Suteir's lips pale with fright.

Fortunately, just before he was about to kill Suteir, news reached him that his subordinates had been killed by demonic cultivators.

Seeing that there was a more important matter, Stan then put away his weapon and ordered his subordinates to take Suteir back to his workshop... "Which means, Suteir is still safe, and she's right in his territory..."

Zhong Yi took a deep breath and arrived opposite the Demon Suppression Division.

"Enter Dungeon: Demon Suppression Division (Hard)"

"Mission Requirements:"

"One: Rescue Suteir within the time it takes for one stick of incense to burn."

"Two: For your safety, do not cause too much commotion to avoid the Demon Suppression Division entering alert status."

...This mission was a strictly stealth-based one.

Aside from necessary guards, the player had to avoid alarming enemies as much as possible.

Fortunately, Zhong Yi was an expert in all aspects outside of combat, and stealth missions were second nature to him, so he quickly reached the top floor.

He kicked open the door, and two flying daggers accurately pierced the foreheads of the two subordinates guarding Suteir.

Of course, this move was also something he had perfected after failing the mission three times.

If he hadn't killed the two subordinates immediately, the entire Demon Suppression Division would have entered alert status, and the mission would have failed... "Li—"

"Shh—"

Zhong Yi made a shushing gesture.

The little girl was crying profusely, running over and jumping to hug Li Ang's neck.

Zhong Yi was at first a little at a loss, then smiled and hugged Suteir's back.

The girl continued to sob in his arms.

Zhong Yi gently patted her back and whispered:

"Let's go home."
