Chapter 547: Chapter 545: Temporary Companions

"You...!" Wang Ye was startled, although he knew it was useless, he still instinctively pointed his gun at Wei Tianyang.

"Don’t point that thing at me," Wei Tianyang said.

His gaze passed over Wang Ye and settled on the woman behind him.

Descending the stairs, Leng Kai positioned himself in front of Lin Yan and said, "... how did you end up here? Don’t tell me you were sent by the council too."

Wei Tianyang ignored Leng Kai and turned to ask Wang Ye, "That woman, what’s her story?"

"This is classified," Wang Ye said.

Wei Tianyang chuckled and grabbed Wang Ye’s arm.

Wang Ye didn’t back down and actually pulled the trigger, but no bullet came out.

Wei Tianyang slightly shook his forearm, flinging Wang Ye to the ground and deftly snatching the short-barreled assault rifle from his left hand, dismantling it into pieces swiftly.

He closed his eyes and moved beside Wang Ye, having already extracted the information from his memory.

"I see now. No wonder I haven’t heard from you all this time; you were deliberately keeping me out," Wei Tianyang said with a smile.

He tossed the parts on the ground and continued, "This woman is from the foundation? The Human Cradle Project...no, the name is missing a word; she’s not one of Spencer’s people."

Wei Tianyang looked at Lin Yan, causing Leng Kai to tense up.

"Leng Kai, are you recovered? I hope you don’t blame me. After all, we’re colleagues. When you barged into my hotel, if I simply let you go, it would’ve broken the hotel’s rules," he said with a smile.

"Fuck off, don’t try to get chummy with me!" Leng Kai yelled.

"I advise you to abort the mission and get the hell out of here," Wei Tianyang said.

At that moment, Wang Ye rose from the ground, drew a dagger, and stabbed towards Wei Tianyang’s waist.

The blade struck his waist like it had hit an iron block, making a ’thud’ sound and not penetrating at all.

Wei Tianyang furrowed his brow, looked back at Wang Ye, and with a swoosh, his body was lifted by an invisible force, suspended mid-air, while the dagger itself turned, pointing its blade towards Wang Ye’s abdomen.

"Wait a minute! You’re... I... my name is Lin Yan," Lin Yan suddenly said as she stepped in front of Leng Kai, cautiously regarding Wei Tianyang.

"Many people in the world know of me," Wei Tianyang said.

"I... I haven’t even said anything yet," Lin Yan said.

"I know what you’re thinking," Wei Tianyang smiled.

"They say you are a threat, that you are out of control, but I don’t think so; perhaps we could collaborate," Lin Yan said.

Leng Kai quickly grabbed Lin Yan’s arm and pulled her back, saying, "Are you crazy?! Negotiating with him?!"

As soon as he spoke, Leng Kai’s body uncontrollably flew to the second floor, crashing heavily against the wall with iron cabinets flying towards him, pinning him underneath.

"Regarding what they think of me, it’s complex; some say I am a hero, others a threat, you might have heard all sorts of nasty things," Wei Tianyang said.

"You’re still with the council now?" Lin Yan asked.

"They no longer consider me one of their own, and neither do I," Wei Tianyang said.

"You could collaborate with us," Lin Yan said.

"The Human Cradle Foundation? Tell me, what does this organization want?" Wei Tianyang asked.

"We hope to be able to..." Lin Yan had just started speaking when her body suddenly flew towards Wei Tianyang.

He grabbed Lin Yan’s arm and then let go.

Lin Yan gasped nervously, her eyes widened, thinking that Wei Tianyang was going to kill her.

But the man just turned around, paced back and forth as if he was thinking about something.

"What... what did you do?" Lin Yan asked.

Wei Tianyang shook his head and said, "I can’t cooperate with you. Lin Yan, I remember your name. I won’t kill you, but you’d better change jobs."

Lin Yan didn’t understand.

Wei Tianyang continued, "What you are looking for is also what I am looking for. The foundation you work for seems to have blocked my way and even touched my people... Um... You better go submit a resume and find a job because your bosses won’t live much longer."

"Don’t... our vision..." Lin Yan hurriedly said.

"Shh..." Wei Tianyang made a gesture.

Lin Yan’s mouth couldn’t open.

"You are bold; you are the first woman who dares to confront me for a sample, even trying to persuade me to lie on the operating table... Hmm... you thought so and were prepared to say so. You really are bold, quite pure," Wei Tianyang laughed.

At this moment, there came noise from the second floor. Leng Kai, holding a rifle, rushed down, his face filled with anger, too lazy to care too much, raised his gun, and shot at him.

Wei Tianyang smiled. The gunshot rang out, the bullets had been fired, but they hovered in midair, then turned a right angle, all hitting the floor.

Leng Kai’s body trembled, flew off the stairs, and heavily fell to the ground; then, his body slid across the floor, all the way to Wei Tianyang’s feet.

He lifted his right foot and stepped on Leng Kai’s head, saying, "I advise you to turn back now; it’s still not too late."

Lin Yan wanted to say something but she couldn’t control her mouth; she even tried to pry her lips apart.

Wei Tianyang sighed and let the woman speak.

"We... we must find it!" Lin Yan said.

"You still don’t understand your situation; this city is very dangerous now. Do you think only you are after this thing? In fact, many people from United Pharmaceuticals have also come, and countries’ PMCs have sent people. I’ve killed several Trinities along the way. Your foundation is too poor, trying to contact a living Heavenly Falling Object, and you sent a woman who can’t even use a gun, along with two soldiers who can’t even protect themselves? Do you know? Those freaks outside are cannon fodder injected with cheap Black Medicine, not even as good as the Medicine People in my view; you were sent here to be sacrificed. The foundation has others who truly come to execute tasks," Wei Tianyang said.

Lin Yan was stunned, a puzzled expression on her face.

Wei Tianyang continued, "Those two from the Superpower Special Department have been following you; you’re just cannon fodder. Just that they were unlucky to encounter me and then they died."

"That thing can control time; if it falls into the wrong hands... the world will fall into disaster," Lin Yan said.

"This is what I worry about, so it is even less likely I would let you...tsk...by the way, do you even have the capability to take it away? I haven’t seen any heavy transport equipment," Wei Tianyang said.

Lin Yan looked at Wei Tianyang with a determined expression.

Wei Tianyang also looked at her, seemingly thinking.

A few seconds later, Wei Tianyang relented, spreading his hands and said, "Let’s find that one...’White King’ first, you must know, United Pharmaceuticals, countries’ dogs are also in action right now."

He released Leng Kai’s head and put down Wang Ye. Leng Kai pulled Lin Yan back several steps. Wang Ye also backed away a few steps, warily watching him.

"This is our mission; you better not interfere," Leng Kai said then.

"You can try to stop me. Really. Just try," Wei Tianyang said to Leng Kai with a smirk.

Wei Tianyang turned and walked out, saying, "Stick close to me, there’s a bunch of Superpower Special Forces outside, and a bunch of pitiful trash. The reason you did not die before was that someone was covering you, hoping you would serve as cannon fodder. Now, the one covering you is dead, and you won’t be so lucky from now on."

Leng Kai and Wang Ye exchanged looks, knowing they could not do much now. Lin Yan, driven by an unknown determination to see the White King with her own eyes, so the three could only follow Wei Tianyang out of the factory.
