Tomb Raiders: She Comes from the Ancient Martial Arts World

Chapter 66 Night Raid Tracking [Bonus Chapter for Gifts]

After seeing off Grandma Yang Hao, who had gone to a relative's house in another province to avoid trouble, Ling Yue reappeared at the hospital where Liang Wan worked.

Upon learning that Liang Wan had taken leave and was not at work, Ling Yue led the ever-growing group away from the hospital.

That evening, because she didn't have an ID card, Ling Yue still chose a guesthouse in a remote location.

In the middle of the night, a faint noise came from outside the window.

Ling Yue, who was sitting on the bed meditating and practicing his martial arts, twitched his ears. Without making a sound, he got out of bed and touched the curtains by the window that were not fully drawn.

About a minute later.

The sound of a window being slowly pulled open echoed in the quiet night.

The visitor was very cautious. He opened the window halfway and, after estimating that he could pass through, he hung outside and listened intently for a long time to hear any sounds coming from inside the room.

After making sure they hadn't woken the people inside, they made another move, silently climbing in through the window.

The person landed silently, displaying exceptional agility. Upon entering, they went straight to the bed, carrying something in their hand.

Taking this opportunity, Ling Yue quickly checked outside to see if there were any other accomplices of this person.

When choosing a room, Ling Yue specifically requested a room on the third floor with a dead-end alleyway outside the window. There were no obstructions below, and even cars couldn't park there.

A quick glance reveals everything.

After Ling Yue confirmed that the newcomer had no accomplices, the newcomer sprayed the "person" covered by the blanket on the bed several times with a sleeping potion, only to find that there was no one on the bed.

The man reacted quickly, immediately using the bed to roll to the opposite side, just managing to dodge Ling Yue's sweeping grappling hand from behind.

Seemingly familiar with Ling Yue's skills, this person ran towards the door without the slightest hesitation as soon as he landed.

After stalking him for two days with a long tail, Ling Yue had been fishing for this fish, so how could he let him go?

With one palm supporting him at the foot of the bed, his entire body spans the width of the bed. He delivers a low kick to block the lower path, then uses both hands to follow up with a high whirlwind kick to attack the upper path.

Instantly blocking all escape routes for the other party from the passageway between the bed and the wall.

With his escape routes blocked, he had no choice but to take the attack. He raised his knee and pointed his foot to block Ling Yue's kick from below, while using his left arm to protect his head and his right hand to slap the instep of Ling Yue's foot that was kicking towards his head.

At the moment of impact, the person realized that Ling Yue was extremely strong. The person dared not take the blow head-on, so he decisively jumped up and, using the force of Ling Yue's kick, rolled backward and flipped off the bed to the other side. After landing, he immediately ran towards the window.

This guy is really slippery; he's determined to run away!

Ling Yue pretended to be a beat slow and only chased after the person when he stepped onto the window frame.

The man, with his feet on the window frame, suddenly turned around and threw something at Ling Yue.

Ling Yue dodged to the side, and the thing slammed into the wardrobe with a loud thud, followed by a blinding white light and a sharp sound.

It was a flashbang!

Flashbangs produce a blinding flash and a loud noise when thrown, causing temporary blindness and deafness to the target.

Ling Yue had no choice but to stop, raise his arm to cover his eyes, and endure the onslaught of noise.

When she regained her vision and rushed to the window to look down, she could no longer see anyone.

Such a commotion in the middle of the night was quickly followed by hurried footsteps and knocking on the door.

Ling Yue pulled a stack of cash out of his backpack and placed it on the bed. He then decisively grabbed his backpack and left through the window ahead of time.

After leaving the guesthouse, Ling Yue wandered around the neighborhood, put on a little tail again, and then found another place to stay nearby before turning off the lights and resting.

However, this is only what the little tail following behind saw.

In fact, not long after entering the house, Ling Yue changed into a black "night-walking outfit," avoided Tail's sight, and quietly left.

Returning to the dead end behind the guesthouse, Ling Yue knelt down on one knee and blew a thin, odorless powder onto the ground, quickly discovering the direction the person had left in.

Even before that person stepped onto the window frame, the soles of their feet were already stained with Ling Yue's specially made potion.

This liquid is colorless and odorless, and has a very strong viscosity. Without special medication to neutralize it, it can stick to the soles of those shoes for up to three days.

The potion will briefly reveal itself upon contact with another powder in Ling Yue's hand; this is a little trick in tracking techniques.

There wasn't enough time or enough medicinal herbs, so this was all Ling Yue could make for now.

However, for now, it's enough.

Following the trail, Ling Yue arrived at a small courtyard. Instead of rushing in, he first circled around the outside.

They confirmed that there were no sentries nearby and no footprints indicating that someone had left.

Knowing that the person was still inside, Ling Yue then found the highest point on the back wall of the house, the one where no one was likely to climb up.

With a light step, he leaped into the air and floated lightly up to the roof, using the back wall as a springboard.

Ling Yue had excellent eyesight and, with the aid of internal energy, good night vision. After carefully observing from the rooftop, he realized that it was indeed so.

The owner of the courtyard has set up many traps on and inside the walls!

Ling Yue dared not be careless and became even more cautious, bending down and pressing his ear against the roof.

After listening carefully for a while, he figured out the exact location of the people in the house.

Once they reached the roof of the room where the other person was, Ling Yue could finally hear people talking in hushed tones inside.

"This Ling Yue is a tough nut to crack! You almost lost your arm after just one exchange with her!" The speaker's voice was deep, and he sounded to be between thirty and forty years old.

The other person's voice was younger, and he spoke through gritted teeth: "I knew she was tough to deal with. If I hadn't run away decisively, I probably would have been caught by now!"

He sighed in a low voice, his tone tinged with helplessness: "Mr. Wang is very interested in her and has given us a firm order to probe her. What can we do?"

The young voice was silent for a moment before saying, "I don't know what kind of spell Wu Xie cast on this woman. Her skills are probably even better than that old guy Zhang Rishan's, yet she's willing to do things for Wu Xie."

He coughed in a deep voice, "You've misunderstood."

The young voice asked in confusion, "Hmm?" "What do you mean?"

He chuckled twice in a low, enigmatic voice: "You think this Ling Yue is really doing his job diligently for Wu Xie and the Nine Gates?"

Upon hearing this, Ling Yue began to refer to, integrate, and fuse certain clues and ideas in his mind.

Upon hearing this, the young voice became interested and quickly pressed for details.

The deep voice didn't try to be mysterious; instead, it said, "You've been doing infiltration missions for the past few years, so you're unaware of many recent events..."

Before leaving, Ling Yue wanted to lift the tile to see what the two people underneath looked like. His fingertips even hooked onto the edge of the tile, but he decided to give up.

The young man was very skilled; he was the best fighter among the Wang family members that Ling Yue had encountered so far.

She believed that as long as the Wang family's top brass was not deeply embroiled in internal power struggles, such a person would definitely be their core elite.

Now is not the time to alert the enemy.
