Chapter 624 Watching Him Disappear into the Night

One night, Ye Xiaoyan sneaked into the club and observed Zhan Yi's every move. She saw Zhan Yi conversing privately with a group of men in suits. One of them opened a suitcase, revealing a neatly stacked stack of US dollars.

"Looks like this is a money laundering operation!" Ye Xiaoyan thought to herself. Just as she was about to raise her phone to take a photo, a bodyguard suddenly stared at her warily, "What are you doing?"

Ye Xiaoyan knew that something was wrong, so she immediately picked up an empty plate beside her and smashed it at the bodyguard! The bodyguard screamed and fell to the ground, covering his head.

"There's an assassin!" Zhan Yi's face changed and he yelled. The bodyguards drew their pistols and rushed towards Ye Xiaoyan.

Ye Xiaoyan quickly scurried under the bar to take cover. Bullets whizzed overhead, sending glass bottles shattering with a crackling sound. She quietly sent a text message to Huo Han.

20 At the critical moment, Huo Han arrived in time. His hands were like thunder, and he easily subdued several bodyguards.

"Brother Han, quickly chase Zhan Yi!" Ye Xiaoyan shouted. Zhan Yi tried to escape through the side door.

Huo Han leaped up and rushed towards Zhan Yi, striking him on the back of the neck with a knife, knocking him unconscious!

"Great!" Ye Xiaoyan said excitedly. The two quickly found Zhan Yi's account books and many pieces of evidence of secret transactions.

Next, they submitted this evidence to the prosecutor's office. Soon, Zhan Yi was arrested and the E Group's dark secrets were exposed. Development of the X-77 virus was forced to cease.

"We have finally won justice for the people and eliminated a major disaster!" Ye Xiaoyan stretched, a relieved smile on his face.

"Yes, but our responsibilities continue." Huo Han said lightly.

As long as injustice exists, they will continue to fight it. That is the very meaning of their existence.

At dusk, Ye Xiaoyan came to the hillside outside the city alone, the afterglow of the setting sun falling on her.

She stood on the hillside, gazing at the brightly lit corner of the city, and seemed to see hope. A clear bird call from the treetops gave her infinite courage.

"As long as we don't give up, we'll definitely see the light of day," Ye Xiaoyan muttered to herself. She took a deep breath of fresh air, her eyes gleaming with hope. Tomorrow was another fresh start.

The next morning, sunlight streamed through the gaps in the curtains onto Ye Xiaoyan's face. She rubbed her sleepy eyes and rolled out of bed.

After a simple wash, Ye Xiaoyan came to Huo Han's room and saw that he had finished practicing Tai Chi on the balcony and was sitting in meditation.

Ye Xiaoyan came to Huo Han's room and saw that he had finished practicing Tai Chi on the balcony and was sitting in meditation.

"Brother, Tai Chi has reached a new level!" Ye Xiaoyan exclaimed sincerely. She could clearly feel the change in Huo Han's aura. His internal strength seemed to be even deeper, and the transitions between his moves were more fluid and natural.

Huo Han smiled slightly and nodded, his eyes filled with satisfaction. He stood up, folded his arms, and once again practiced the basic movements of Tai Chi.

Ye Xiaoyan stood quietly by, watching, afraid to miss a single detail. She watched Huo Han's arms slowly stretch out, his steps calm and composed, his aura profound and peaceful. The sunlight bathed his graceful form, like a flowing Tai Chi stone sculpture.

After studying Tai Chi, the two went to the restaurant and enjoyed a simple but warm breakfast. After breakfast, they decided to rest in a farmhouse in the suburbs.

The forest path twisted and turned, lush trees swaying on either side. As we passed through the trees, sunlight filtered through the gaps between the leaves, casting a hazy, dappled light. The ground, woven by the twists and turns of tree roots, rustled underfoot.

"The scenery here is pleasant and the environment is quiet. It's really rare." Ye Xiaoyan exclaimed softly.

"You're right." Huo Han also slowed down his pace and admired the natural scenery on both sides.

At this moment, five or six burly men suddenly jumped out from the bushes ahead, holding swords and blocking their way!

"Who are you and why are you stopping us?" Ye Xiaoyan asked vigilantly, his right hand already quietly pressing on the hilt of the sword.

"Stop talking nonsense and hand over all your belongings!" shouted a big man with a face full of flesh.

"You bold lunatic, you're looking for death!" Ye Xiaoyan's eyes flashed, and he suddenly drew his sword from its sheath, with the tip of the sword pointing directly at the man's vitals!

The big man barely managed to block Ye Xiaoyan's sword, a layer of cold sweat on his face. "You're rebelling! Brothers, attack!"

Seeing this, the remaining criminals also drew their blades and rushed forward. Ye Xiaoyan and Huo Han stood back to back, looking at the enemy in all directions.

"I'll do it!" Ye Xiaoyan protected her chest with her left hand, and the long sword in her right hand leaped up like a flying dragon, stabbing at the throat of a gangster with incredible swiftness!

The gangster tried to fight back in a hurry, but was still cut by the sword, leaving a bloody mark! At the same time, Huo Han also took action to subdue another gangster.

"Our brothers have fallen. We are no match for them. Let's run!" The leading criminal, seeing the situation was not going his way, hurriedly fled into the bushes. The other criminals, terrified by the news, also fled in all directions.

"Hmph, beasts!" Ye Xiaoyan snorted coldly and watched them disappear into the depths of the jungle.

"Xiaoyan, are you hurt?" Huo Han checked on Ye Xiaoyan with concern.

"I'm fine, let's go." Ye Xiaoyan shook her head, looking calm.

The two continued walking through the woods until they arrived at a wooden house, which was where they had planned to stay.

Ye Xiaoyan pushed open the door of the wooden house. It was empty except for a bed and a table. There was some firewood piled in the corner.

"The environment here is quiet and peaceful, perfect for training." Huo Han nodded with satisfaction. Afterwards, the two of them built a fire in the yard and began practicing martial arts and sparring.

Ye Xiaoyan was completely focused, afraid to miss any of Huo Han's moves. Each of Huo Han's moves contained the essence of Tai Chi, and she carefully studied and learned from them.

In the evening, after a simple dinner, Ye Xiaoyan sat at the door of the wooden house, gazing at the stars in the night sky.

"The stars are unusually bright tonight," she exclaimed softly.

"Because your internal strength has improved again today." Huo Han walked over and sat down beside her.

"Brother, I would like to ask you to teach me swordsmanship again in this quiet night." Ye Xiaoyan said earnestly.

"Okay." Huo Han took two wooden swords from his side and said, "Let's slowly comprehend it with these wooden swords."

So the two of them exchanged moves under the moonlight. Huo Han's every move was imbued with the essence of Tai Chi, and Ye Xiaoyan was completely focused, afraid to miss any of the essence.

After an unknown amount of time, Ye Xiaoyan was already able to imitate many of Huo Han's moves. Her swordsmanship had achieved a qualitative leap that night!

Brother, I think my swordsmanship has improved again!" Ye Xiaoyan's eyes lit up.

"Yes, your comprehension ability is very strong." Huo Han nodded approvingly.

As soon as the two men put down their wooden swords, they heard the faint sound of helicopter propellers in the night sky!

"It doesn't look like a good thing happening so late at night. Let's go and take a look!" Ye Xiaoyan's expression was stern.

The two followed the sound and found the landing spot of the helicopter, only to see a dozen fully armed soldiers jumping out of the cabin. "They are private soldiers, they are here with bad intentions!" Huo Han frowned.

The leading soldier shouted, "Search the surrounding area. The target is right here. Move quickly!"

Watching the private soldiers begin searching the forest area, Ye Xiaoyan and Huo Han looked at each other and nodded in tacit understanding.

"I'll divert their attention, and you take the opportunity to find their leader." Huo Han said in a low voice.

"Okay, be careful." Ye Xiaoyan also responded in a low voice.

Huo Han took a deep breath, suddenly jumped out of the bushes, and landed five meters away from the soldiers.

"Who's there!" Several soldiers were shocked and pointed their automatic rifles at him.

"Are you looking for me? Come on!" Huo Han sneered and made an inviting gesture.

"Capture him!" The soldier who reacted first rushed towards Huo Han.

Huo Han's body was elusive, and he easily avoided the soldier's grasp. He thrust forward with his right fist, hitting the soldier's back hard, and the soldier fell to the ground.

"Fire!" the leading soldier ordered. Several soldiers quickly raised their guns and opened fire.

Huo Han moved through the trees with ease, his bullets only hitting the tree trunks around him, sending up sawdust.

While several soldiers paused to reload, Huo Han suddenly lunged forward, sweeping a leg and knocking one soldier to the ground. The soldier groaned and scrambled away. "Damn it!" The soldiers shifted their formation, attempting to encircle Huo Han.

However, Huo Han was agile and could use Tai Chi softening techniques with ease. He easily broke through the soldiers' encirclement and knocked down two of them.

Just when the soldiers were concentrating on dealing with Huo Han, Ye Xiaoyan had quietly circled behind them and jumped onto the helicopter with a somersault.

The pilot was the only one in control of the plane. Ye Xiaoyan suddenly pressed his shoulder and ordered in a cold voice: "Call your leader, otherwise you will die here tonight!" (cabj) The pilot was terrified and nodded in agreement, then took out his radio to contact his leader.

The leader was Dong Lingyu, the proprietress of this group of private soldiers. She quickly arrived at the cabin with two of her confidants. Just as she was about to berate the pilot, she saw Ye Xiaoyan standing nearby, sword in hand. "Who are you?!" Dong Lingyu asked warily.

"I'm here to hold you accountable for sending people to hunt us down," Ye Xiaoyan said coldly, "You must reveal the mastermind behind this!"

"Humph, today I'll send you to hell!" Dong Lingyu suddenly pulled out a dagger from his arms and threw it at Ye Xiaoyan!

Ye Xiaoyan stepped aside, and the dagger whizzed past her face, hitting the throat of one of Dong Lingyu's confidants!

The confidant's eyes widened, blood oozing from his mouth. He clasped his hands around his neck, spun around, and fell down, never to get up again.

"Go to hell!" Dong Lingyu screamed, and pulled out three or four flying knives with a faint cold light and threw them at Ye Xiaoyan!

Ye Xiaoyan's eyes flashed with coldness, and he swung his sword quickly in front of him, blocking all the flying knives.

"You've hurt your own people, wait and see how I'll deal with you!" Ye Xiaoyan shouted. With a diagonal strike, her long sword pierced Dong Lingyu's face like lightning!

Dong Lingyu was shocked and barely managed to block the sword, but the sword still left a bloody mark!

"You beast!" Dong Lingyu was furious and whipped Ye Xiaoyan with the steel whip from his waist!

Ye Xiaoyan snorted coldly, protecting his chest with his left hand, and thrusting his sword with his right hand like a rainbow, he stabbed towards Dong Lingyu's Dantian with incredible swiftness!

Dong Lingyu was unable to dodge and felt a sharp pain in his lower abdomen, and warm blood immediately gushed out!

"You...you..." She fell to the ground, holding her abdomen, her eyes full of unwillingness and hatred.

Ye Xiaoyan's eyes were icy cold as she mercilessly struck Dong Lingyu with her sword, ending her life!

Meanwhile, the battle in the forest was drawing to a close. Huo Han's Tai Chi softening skills had reached perfection, and these soldiers were no match for him. Seeing no way to defeat him, the last soldier let out a wail and quickly fled into the forest.

"Hmph, bastard!" Huo Han snorted coldly and watched him disappear into the night.

Ye Xiaoyan also walked down from the helicopter at this time, and Huo Han nervously checked whether she was injured.

"Xiaoyan, are you okay?"

"I'm fine. I've already found out the mastermind behind this is Group E." Ye Xiaoyan's expression was gloomy. "It seems they're still secretly targeting us."
