Chapter 1 The Premonition

Just then, Ye Cang sensed over a hundred people moving towards them from a kilometer away.

Ye Cang was worried, fearing that he wouldn't be able to properly protect Liuli Wumeng and Liuli Wuyou while fighting.

The enemies were closing in on them, and time was of the essence. The usually unrestrained and indifferent Ye Cang was now anxious.

Suddenly, Ye Cang thought of a relatively safe method. "I've got it! I can go around and launch a sneak attack from behind, defeating them one by one, so they can't coordinate."

Ye Cang stood up and said, "Wumeng, Wuyou. The people who killed your parents have found you. I don't know what method they used to find our location in such a short time. But one thing is certain! We must resolve this situation now."

Before Ye Cang could finish speaking, his younger sister, Liuli Wuyou, said coldly, "Kill them. Only by killing them."

Ye Cang asked, "Aren't you afraid?"

"Brother, my sister and I aren't afraid. Because my sister pulled me out of a mountain of corpses. There were tens of thousands of bodies and remains in that mountain. I won't be afraid, brother."

Hearing this, Ye Cang, although ignited with fighting spirit, felt even more pity for the two sisters. "What exactly did these two experience? They not only possess a steadfast and resilient character, but also an awareness that ordinary adults don't have."

Ye Cang took both of their hands and said, "You two must hold on tight, understand?"

The two sisters nodded.

*Shoosh!* The three of them instantly disappeared from the abandoned factory.

Ye Cang went behind these people, gradually eliminating them one by one without making any noise.

When these people were only a hundred meters away from the abandoned factory, Ye Cang had already eliminated a third of the hundred-person team.

By the time these people realized something was wrong, it was already too late.

The cicadas chirping were, after all, the melodious chimes coming from the summer outside the window, and hope was always the upward-climbing ivy.

Ye Cang leaped into the air, the second stage of Zero Domain transformation already completed. A deafening roar was heard!

Starlight suddenly appeared in broad daylight, instantly filtering the sunlight.

The starlight shone brightly, as if illuminating the entire sky with lofty aspirations. The scattered stardust was so gentle, like a light veil.

With just one punch, Ye Cang annihilated the hundred people in front of him, along with the abandoned factory.

Liuli Wumeng and her younger sister Wuyou stood behind Ye Cang.

Perhaps... Ye Cang wasn't good at expressing himself, but Liuli Wumeng and her sister understood all of his gentleness.

At this moment, from this moment on, in the hearts of Wumeng and Wuyou, Ye Cang might not compare to the radiance of the sun, but he was always the warmest starlight in the dark night.

Liuli Wumeng and Liuli Wuyou might have missed the afterglow of the setting sun, but what truly belonged to them... was a shimmering star that illuminated and warmed them.

The battle ended in a blink of an eye. Ye Cang grabbed the two sisters and, with a *whoosh*, left the area again.

Near a beach, the sky was a light blue, and a gentle sea breeze occasionally brushed against their faces. The sound of the waves was loud, sometimes surging, sometimes leaping. The fishing boats coming and going rose and fell with the tide, much like the ups and downs of our lives, always full of surprises and occasional regrets.

Ye Cang looked at the sea, lost in thought. "The hyperspace transfer device has yet to be found. And everything that has happened to the Liuli sisters has been no coincidence. Whether it's a coincidence or a conspiracy, I must find a way to leave this nebula as soon as possible."

Suddenly, a figure appeared in the distance, radiating endless killing intent.

Ye Cang knew something was wrong. Just as he was about to take Wumeng and Wuyou away, he realized that he could no longer use the hyperspace quantum particles in his body to perform instantaneous movement.

"What... why has my instant movement failed?"

While Ye Cang was puzzled, the person radiating endless killing intent actually used instant movement to arrive in front of Ye Cang.

The man had a blank expression, a slicked-back hairstyle, and a black suit that made him look like a professional bodyguard.

*Bang!*

Before Ye Cang could react, he was sent flying seven or eight meters by the suit man's punch.

Ye Cang was very puzzled. "What's going on! Why can't I transform? My Hyperspace Zero Domain technique can't be used either! Why is this?"

The suit man flashed again, stepping on Ye Cang's cheek with one foot. "I am Inhibit 9997, a liquid metal Spirit Tool. Within my body, I can release anti-spacetime particles. This will cause you jumpers to lose your original combat power and combat skills!"

"This... is the Inhibit device that produces anti-spacetime particles. And the Inhibit device is a combat system specifically developed to inhibit you hyperspace jumpers."

"When you can't activate your own hyperspace quantum particles, you jumpers are almost no different from ordinary people. Therefore, I am Inhibit experimental body No. 9997. I am also the most successful Inhibit machine to date."

*Bang!*

Inhibit 9997 kicked Ye Cang in the face.

Ye Cang's entire head was buried in the sand. Fortunately, the sand nearby was soft. If it had been ordinary cement ground, Ye Cang would probably have been sent off to his funeral by the Inhibit 9997 metal Spirit Tool.

Inhibit 9997 grabbed Ye Cang by the neck and lifted him up with one hand. Ye Cang threw a punch.

With a clang, Ye Cang's punch landed heavily on Inhibit 9997's face.

Unexpectedly, not only was Inhibit 9997 unharmed, but Ye Cang's wrist and finger bones were completely shattered!

Just as Inhibit 9997 was about to deliver the final blow, intending to blast Ye Cang's head and end the battle,

Inhibit 9997's brain suddenly received a message: Immediately capture the Spirit Tool twins, Liuli Wumeng and Liuli Wuyou.

After receiving the instruction, Inhibit 9997 smashed Ye Cang's left shoulder with a punch.

*Crack!*

Ye Cang's left shoulder was shattered by Inhibit 9997's punch.

Ye Cang was in great pain, pain that made his internal organs and meridians feel like they were cramping.

At this moment, Ye Cang thought, "Damn it! Damn it! I promised Wumeng and Wuyou that I would take them away. That wasn't just a casual remark, but my promise to them, a promise to life!"

Ye Cang struggled to get up and, without hesitation, charged towards Inhibit 9997, launching a wrestling-style Rocket Flying Body, heading straight for Inhibit 9997's back.

Suddenly, Inhibit 9997, without any attack prelude, used a strange footwork, so fast that Ye Cang couldn't even see Inhibit 9997's turning motion clearly.

Inhibit 9997 turned his left hand into a liquid rope, binding Ye Cang's feet, and his right fist into a large hammer, smashing towards Ye Cang's legs.

*Bang!*

With an extremely muffled thud, Ye Cang's legs were instantly broken.

The pain of bone fractures spread throughout his body, causing Ye Cang to lie on the ground, convulsing in a bizarre posture.

Seeing that Ye Cang had lost his basic combat power, Inhibit 9997 turned around and went to Liuli Wumeng and Liuli Wuyou, preparing to take the two sisters away.

At this time, Ye Cang, enduring the severe pain, ignoring the uncontrollable convulsions throughout his body, crawled forward with his head on the ground, his right shoulder enduring the pain brought on by the convulsions, struggling to move closer to the Liuli sisters, step by step.

"I... am not a man of broken promises. Every word I say, every promise I make, is a sincere treatment of life!"
