Chapter 1144: Chapter 1139: You Just Want to Trade for Your Life

"F*ck," he cursed silently, quickly breaking his stride, turning, and running towards the most crowded area, but it didn’t take long before Tang Ye’s figure appeared ahead of him like a specter, just waiting for him to bump into him.

"F*ck you!"

At this moment, he could no longer hold back. Tang Ye always managed to appear before him undetected, which suggested that Tang Ye’s speed was terrifyingly fast. Such speed made capturing him a piece of cake. So why did Tang Ye appear in front of him, waiting for him to come?

It was because the guy was toying with him!

At Cloud Gorge Base, he was a respected powerhouse himself, and a powerhouse’s pride did not allow for mockery. So, he was furious, with rage almost bursting from his eyes, but he dared not vent it because his opponent was even stronger.

He had to run; he could not die! In this era, he had so many possessions; death meant losing everything.

Possessing so much, he became increasingly cautious and fearful of death, even when facing such a terrifying entity. His instinctive, powerful will to survive still drove him toward that faint glimmer of hope.

The speed of a Level 6 New Human was fully unleashed, covering up to a hundred meters in just one second. Finally, he could no longer see Tang Ye.

But before he could feel relieved, he saw someone ahead of him—the same person who had attacked him earlier!

He was holding a heavy club, a sinister smile on his face.

After a moment of thought, he turned and fled. The figure was also a Level 6 New Human, but if he tried to bust through him, getting entangled would make it very difficult to escape.

Thus, he chose to change his course but soon, Bai Huipeng, the guy who had been speaking through the loudspeaker earlier, appeared in his chosen direction, knife in hand, charging rapidly towards him!

"Flee!"

An intense sense of frustration spread within him, making him increasingly irritable, but he was powerless. There were too many powerful opponents, each difficult to handle. He could only flee, continuously changing directions in desperation.

But this time, it seemed the opponent had had enough fun.

Just as he was about to turn around, he suddenly saw Tang Ye slowly walking towards him. He didn’t speak, his face emotionless as he stepped closer, a sequence that, to him, was the most horrifying scene possible!

If he survived this ordeal, the image he’d seen might become an immense, indissoluble shadow lurking in his mind.

"Damn it... damn it! What the hell do you want? Ahhh!"

He roared furiously at Tang Ye, but it was just that—one shout, before he decisively turned to run; however, his chance was lost. Just as he turned, he crashed heavily into a wide chest.

He was startled and looked up, only to see a giant man in front of him who hadn’t been there a moment ago.

Standing four meters tall, the figure was a veritable giant!

He could distinctly feel the hardness of the giant’s chest, as if he had crashed into a wall of steel!

But in that instant of impact, while feeling the massiveness of the body, a name quickly flashed through his mind.

Tang Fu, one of the top figures of the Peace Party, a Level 7 New Human with unrivaled strength in his tier—capable of severely injuring or even killing a Level 6 New Human with a single punch!

He looked up and saw a face with intense murderous aura, its eyes larger than bell clappers fixated on him.

"Tang... Tang Fu..."

His voice trembled as he spoke, indicating the immense fear inside him.

"That’s right, it’s me. You’ve been watching us for so long; I suppose you didn’t expect to die, did you?"

"I..."

He stammered for a long time, unable to form a complete sentence, then suddenly he tried to run, but just as he moved less than ten centimeters, he was grabbed by the neck by a large hand. Then, he felt himself being lifted, the powerful grip on his neck rendering him unable to resist.

"You still want to run? Where do you think you could go? My boss is right ahead; do you really think you could escape from him? Heh heh heh," Ah Fu sneered, tightening his grip on the man’s neck.

The man’s face turned red, struggling to make it easier to breathe, and then he said to Ah Fu, "Don’t kill me!"

"Oh? Why?" Ah Fu asked curiously, seemingly interested in hearing the reasons people pleaded for their lives before death—after all, they were going to die anyway, so why not listen to their final struggles.

Thinking this, Ah Fu loosened his grip slightly to let the man speak.

The man moved a bit, looking back towards Tang Ye and said, "Li Henian, President Li, you really shouldn’t kill me. If you do, it’ll only hasten the downfall of the United District!"

"Really?" Tang Ye scoffed. He had heard such claims a few times before but when had they ever been successful?

"Heh, don’t be incredulous. If you kill me, I won’t be able to relay information back here, and Cloud Gorge Base will assume I’m dead. President Li, you might think you have a lot of time, but the people over there can’t wait anymore. Nangong Yang despises you. I think you don’t even know who Nangong Yang is, nor do you know his experiences. There are very few people in this world who have earned Nangong Yang’s respect, but Nangong Ming was one of them."

"But you killed Nangong Ming! Now, the Hidden Dragon Society is preparing to take you on. Maybe you never thought that the Hidden Dragon Society would exert so much effort just for Nangong Ming’s death against the United District? Don’t forget, the United District is a superpower. Your agricultural lands are enviable; if the Hidden Dragon Society could swallow up the United District, they’d have the power to unite the entire Cloud Gorge Base. Don’t think being a Level 7 New Human makes you invincible. I’m telling you, for the Cloud Gorge Base, taking you down would be a piece of cake."

"If I die, it means you’ve openly challenged the Hidden Dragon Society. Everything important will be known, and they won’t give you time to prepare. If you don’t kill me, I can promise to help you hold off Cloud Gorge Base’s assault, giving you more time to prepare."

He rattled off a whole lot all at once, but from start to finish, Tang Ye’s face remained expressionless. After he finished speaking, Tang Ye simply replied, "So, you’re just trying to trade your life?"
