Chapter 560: Chapter 556 Heavenly List Expert

Seeing Ling Chen sway the Land Rover from side to side, Su Mei asked worriedly, "Ling Chen, how are you?"

"I’m... I’m fine." Ling Chen said laboriously. Under intense pain, he bit down on his tongue tip forcefully, and immediately, his mind cleared up significantly. Taking a deep breath, Ling Chen looked at the rearview mirror, only to see another Land Rover quickly catching up from behind, speeding faster and faster.

Seeing this, Ling Chen controlled his speed and gradually slowed down. Shortly after, the pursuing Land Rover quickly caught up and drove alongside his.

As the two Land Rovers were side by side in a straight line, Ling Chen suddenly turned the steering wheel, veering the car sharply to the left.

Bang!

With a loud crash, the two vehicles collided fiercely. Under the impact controlled by Ling Chen in the Land Rover, the other vehicle slightly shifted to the side. Conveniently, there were several cars parked on the roadside, blocking the pursuing Land Rover’s path which, unable to dodge timely, crashed into the rear of a parked car, billowing white smoke.

Having shaken off the other Land Rover, Ling Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief. He then sped up and drove the Land Rover into a nearby open-air parking lot. After that, he abandoned the Land Rover and randomly stole another car in the parking lot, continuing the escape with Su Mei.

Over ten minutes later, feeling increasingly weak, Ling Chen had no choice but to stop the car on the roadside, then found a simple motel to rest for a while.

When paying, the motel owner, seeing the beautiful like celestial Su Mei then looking at Ling Chen, revealed a meaningful smile in his eyes.

"302." The motel owner handed the room key to Ling Chen and leaned closer to him, chuckling lowly, "That room has better soundproofing, you two can enjoy yourselves to the fullest."

Although the motel owner spoke quietly, Su Mei still heard him clearly from the side, her pretty face blushing deeply, her eyes unable to hide her embarrassment.

Ling Chen, uninterested in explaining, quickly dragged Su Mei up the stairs.

In room 302, Ling Chen sat on the bed leaning against the wall, panting heavily.

"Here, drink some water first." Seeing Ling Chen’s injury seemed severe, Su Mei quickly opened a bottle of mineral water provided in the room.

After taking a few sips and soothing his throat, Ling Chen felt much more comfortable, though the pain in his chest was still intense.

"When will Song Ge and the others arrive?"

Hearing Su Mei’s question, Ling Chen shook his head, took out his mobile phone, and said, "You call him yourself. Give them our address and ask them to hurry over, I can’t hold on much longer."

Su Mei nodded, took the phone, and dialed Song Ge’s number.

Once the call connected, Su Mei spoke urgently, "Song Ge, it’s me, you... what?" Not knowing what was said from the other end, Su Mei’s face slightly changed.

"Okay, I understand, be careful."

After Su Mei hung up the call, Ling Chen asked, "What happened over there?"

"They were attacked right as they left the airport." Su Mei couldn’t hide her worry while saying this, "Song Ge told me that the attacker was an old man, likely the same one who injured you."

Ling Chen frowned and said, "Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion sent so many experts over, can’t they take down that old man?"

Miss Su sighed, "I’m afraid things are not as simple as you imagine. That old man... is a Heavenly List master!"

What?

Ling Chen’s pupils shrank, his face revealing shock.

Heavenly List master!

No wonder Song Ge and the others were stopped; it turns out that old fellow is a Heavenly List master. Ling Chen secretly felt fortunate that when he encountered that old man previously, the man probably disdained killing him; otherwise, even ten lives wouldn’t have been enough to survive.

That said, the Heavenly List master secretly protecting Miss Su’s safety must have been unable to help because of that old man.

"Miss Su, are there no Heavenly List masters among the reinforcements sent by the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion?"

"Do you think there are many Heavenly List masters in the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion? Aside from our own people, Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion only has two Heavenly List masters. One is solely responsible for my safety; the other stays in the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion to fend off foreign enemies." At this point, Su Mei suddenly changed the topic, continuing, "The old man who hurt you before, I think I know who he is."

"You know his identity?"

Su Mei nodded and said, "I’ve heard people calling him Mr. Ji. Among the Heavenly List masters I know of, there is an old man surnamed Ji, whom I have never met; I can’t believe he was recruited by the God Organization. If I remember correctly, his name should be Ji Gang, and he’s already over eighty years old. Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion has always wanted to contact him to maintain good relations, but he is elusive and has no fixed abode, so we have always been unable to reach him."

Ling Chen was somewhat surprised, saying, "I thought he was a Heavenly List master ’manufactured’ through the Lucifer experiment; turns out he’s real."

"The Lucifer experiment I learned about is actually the development of one’s own potential, guided by effective scientific technology, combined with medicinal enhancements, which instantly enhance one’s strength multiple times. However, these ’manufactured’ Heavenly List masters, no matter how powerful they are, can’t surpass those who break through limits by their cultivation. Moreover, everyone’s potential has a limit; even if the experiment is successful, it will greatly reduce their lifespan."

"I see."

While talking, Ling Chen suddenly felt a heaviness in his chest, barely catching his breath, and his face turned unsightly.

Seeing his discomfort, Su Mei said, "We should still go to the hospital to check; your injury can’t be neglected for too long."

"No need." Ling Chen shook his head, "Going to the hospital could likely expose our whereabouts." With a computer expert Hu Fei by his side, God Organization surely doesn’t lack such experts.

"How about... we call the police?" suggested Su Mei.

"No." Ling Chen directly rejected Su Mei’s suggestion. He knew too well the style of God Organization; even if they sought help from the police, God Organization would neither fear nor show mercy, only causing more innocent casualties.

"You don’t need to worry too much about me; I’ll be fine with some rest. It’s unlikely that the God Organization’s people will find this place anytime soon, and we can rest assured."

Su Mei, with a worried expression, said, "I wonder how Elder Zhou and the others are faring?"

"It’s a pity we don’t know their whereabouts; otherwise, we could think of a way to rescue them first."

Hearing this, something seemed to occur to Su Mei, and she said, "The people who captured me previously said they were sending me to the port; could this be a clue?"

The port?

Ling Chen’s mind stirred. Yes! Located by the sea, they must be planning to leave by boat.
