"Black Fox!!!"
As the headless corpse of the masked woman collapsed in the alley, a mournful roar echoed from the alley entrance.
Ye Ling looked towards the sound and saw the masked man who had been holding a sniper rifle on the opposite building's rooftop now standing at the alley's mouth.
Looking at the grief-stricken masked man, Ye Ling said, "She made the first move."
"Bastard! I'll make you pay with your life!!!"
The masked man's eyes were bloodshot, and his body trembled violently.
He didn't listen to Ye Ling at all. He drew a gun from his waist, aimed at Ye Ling, and madly pulled the trigger, intending to riddle Ye Ling with bullets!
Seeing the bullets flying towards him, Ye Ling's last shred of patience was gone.
"You guys, one by one, do you ever use your brains when you act?"
BOOM!!!
Ye Ling released a sliver of his aura, and the bullets in mid-air were all shattered into dust. The masked man, under Ye Ling's terrifying pressure, had his blood vessels burst, and he turned into a bloody figure.
"Bl-Black Fox..."
The masked man knelt on the ground, his arm trembling as he reached towards the masked woman's corpse in front of Ye Ling, before finally collapsing powerlessly into the pool of blood.
The alley fell silent again.
Except for the unconscious Ye Miaomiao, all members of both factions had become corpses.
Ye Ling, too lazy to clean up the mess, continued to heal Nuo Ying, as if nothing had happened.
More than ten minutes later, Ye Miaomiao, who had been knocked out, slowly woke up.
She got up with a dazed look, her head still feeling groggy. Seeing the corpses of the masked woman and the masked man, her pupils suddenly contracted.
"Sister Jin, Brother Wu?"
Ye Miaomiao stared blankly at the two corpses in the alley, her body trembling violently, then felt an extreme wave of nausea and gagged by the side.
"D-Uncle..."
Ye Miaomiao looked at Ye Ling with red eyes and asked tremblingly, "Did... did you kill them?"
Ye Ling tossed a box to Ye Miaomiao and said indifferently, "I was merely defending myself, and I have no interest in getting involved in your disputes. Take your things and leave."
Ye Miaomiao held the box Ye Ling threw at her, standing there blankly, staring straight at Ye Ling.
Seeing that Ye Miaomiao had no intention of leaving, Ye Ling raised an eyebrow and asked, "What? Do you want to avenge them?"
"No..." Ye Miaomiao wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes. "Although I hate you, Uncle, Sister Jin made the first move against you. I have no right to seek revenge against you."
"Finally, someone who makes sense," Ye Ling chuckled. "Then why are you still here?"
Ye Miaomiao pursed her lips and then said to Ye Ling, "I... I want to remind you, Uncle, that if you killed Sister Jin and Brother Wu, the organization behind me will not let you go. Also, Black Tower lost important data, and you are the only witness. They definitely won't let you go either."
"You don't need to worry about me on this point," Ye Ling smiled at Ye Miaomiao. "I'm just making a brief stop in this world and will leave soon. You should worry more about yourself."
"Little girl, I find you quite pleasing to the eye, so I'll give you a piece of advice. If you can get away, leave your organization as soon as possible. It's just a quagmire that will drag you into the abyss."
When Ye Miaomiao and the masked woman were arguing earlier, Ye Ling clearly felt that the masked woman had murderous intent towards Ye Miaomiao.
No matter what the organization behind Ye Miaomiao and the masked woman was, Ye Ling could tell from that brief argument that Ye Miaomiao was merely a tool for that organization.
Once Ye Miaomiao was no longer useful, she would likely be discarded without hesitation.
"Thank you for the reminder, Uncle."
Ye Miaomiao bowed to Ye Ling, but whether she took Ye Ling's advice to heart was only known to herself.
"Uncle, take care of yourself."
Ye Miaomiao wiped away her freshly shed tears and was about to leave with the box when she felt a cold, bone-chilling killing intent from outside the alley!
Ye Ling sighed slightly, "Is this ever going to end?"
At this moment, a man wearing a hood, completely covered, walked into the alley entrance.
Seeing the hooded man, Ye Miaomiao's eyes showed intense fear. She clutched the box to her chest, retreated continuously, and stammered, "Gui... Gui Sha... How did you get here?"
Ye Ling asked curiously, "Who is Gui Sha?"
Ye Miaomiao trembled and said, "Gui Sha is our organization's cleaner... they specialize in cleaning up internal traitors and rebels within the organization."
"Normally, members of the organization never see Gui Sha!"
Gui Sha then spoke in a hoarse voice, "Ye Miaomiao, number 673, has unilaterally defected from the organization and killed core members Black Fox and Gun Barrel. The organization has determined her to be a traitor, and I am here to eliminate her."
"No, that's not true... I, I haven't betrayed the organization, I infiltrated Black Tower and got their data!" Ye Miaomiao said frantically, quickly showing the box in her hand to Gui Sha.
"I didn't kill Sister Jin and Brother Wu!"
Unfortunately, no matter how Ye Miaomiao argued, Gui Sha seemed unwilling to listen. He directly rolled up his sleeve, revealing the gun barrel tied to his arm, and aimed it at Ye Miaomiao.
From behind, Ye Ling smiled at Ye Miaomiao, "It seems my advice was useless. It came true so quickly."
Ye Miaomiao, sweating profusely, swallowed and said nervously to Ye Ling, "U-Uncle... you should leave quickly. We are no match for Gui Sha! I'll hold him off for you!"
Ye Ling chuckled, "You're quite kind-hearted, girl."
Ye Miaomiao said, "This is all because of me. You were dragged into this innocently, and I just don't want to implicate you!"
Gui Sha said indifferently, "Neither of you can leave."
"Enough, I don't want to hear your croaking voice anymore." At this moment, Ye Ling appeared behind Gui Sha and placed a hand on his shoulder.
"What?"
Gui Sha exclaimed, a storm of shock surging in his heart!
Without thinking, he immediately turned to attack Ye Ling, but before he could make a move, Ye Ling's five fingers tightened slightly!
BANG!!!
In the alley, the terrifying cleaner Gui Sha, to Ye Miaomiao's stunned eyes, exploded into a mist of blood!
Crimson blood splattered onto the walls on both sides.
And Ye Ling's clothes remained spotless.
Gui Sha...
He was dead just like that?
Ye Miaomiao's mind went blank, unable to believe what she was seeing.
This Uncle in the alley...
Who exactly was he?
Ye Ling clapped the dust off his hands and looked at Ye Miaomiao, whose mind was a blank slate, and chuckled, "Girl... you're homeless now, want to consider following me?"
Ye Miaomiao's body trembled.
