Chapter 585: Chapter 557: Fight Desperately to Survive!

After receiving the call, Li Chen left the police station immediately.

He arrived at the parking lot, jumped into his car, and the vehicle turned into a streak of light, disappearing into the traffic in no time.

Not long after Li Chen’s departure, the police station also received a call.

"What?" Yu Yueying’s expression changed dramatically after receiving the call.

"What’s the situation?" The middle-aged police officer beside Yu Yueying looked at her and asked.

"There’s been a homicide in the villa area! And it seems that the perpetrator hasn’t left yet!" Yu Yueying said solemnly to the middle-aged officer beside her.

"Go! Get the officers and hurry over there!"

At that moment, Yu Yueying suddenly remembered the slightly off behavior of Li Chen at the police station entrance, and it occurred to her that Li Chen lived in that area, could it be...

"Damn, let’s rush over there!"

"I hope he’s still as powerful as he used to be..." Yu Yueying silently said to herself.

The signal Li Chen received was clearly much more detailed than what the police had.

Indeed, someone had committed a murder in the villa area, and the perpetrator was a woman.

This fact alone was enough for Li Chen to rush over there without any hesitation.

Besides, the villa area was close to where he and Lin Yi lived; such an incident was unsafe for both the residents of the villa and himself.

"A woman..." Li Chen’s face showed a pensive look. With the capability of the Nether Army, finding someone in Linchuan was too simple.

However, there had been no news about Li Xinmei recently, and Li Chen had long suspected that she might have disguised herself.

"Could it really be her?"

Ssshh—

The car stopped outside the villa area, and as soon as Li Chen jumped out, he saw a member of the Nether Army hiding to the side, who stealthily pointed him in a direction before hiding again.

Since Li Chen had arrived, it was time to notify the other brothers.

Even Li Chen had said that this woman was difficult to deal with, so they would certainly not underestimate her at all.

Li Chen’s gaze swept to the side.

Near the entrance of the villa area, a villa showed a faint glow of blood. Seeing that blood light, Li Chen hardly hesitated and charged in immediately.

"Boom!"

The fence, taller than a man, was nothing to Li Chen who simply leaped over it.

However, once inside, he found the entire villa eerily silent.

What was more peculiar was the dry corpse lying not far from the entrance.

Seeing this corpse, Li Chen furrowed his brows slightly and walked toward the entrance.

The person had clearly been dead for a while, and from the looks of it, had probably been drained completely of blood.

This was not something an ordinary person could do.

In fact, it might even be said that it was not something humans could do.

Li Chen couldn’t help but think of the vampires of the West.

"Drip, drip."

Inside the villa, it seemed all the curtains were drawn, the lights were off, and the whole house was plunged into darkness.

As he reached the entrance, just when Li Chen was about to enter,

suddenly, a hand reached out abruptly from the dark room.

Bai Hao’s pupils shrank drastically the moment the hand appeared.

Instinctively, Bai Hao brought his hands together in front of his chest.

Boom!!

In Li Chen’s perception, he felt a powerful force emanate from his crossed arms.

The strength of this force reached such a level that even he felt it was irresistible.

Just in an instant, Li Chen was fiercely hurled away.

"Bang!!"

He crashed heavily against the wall of the villa, even noticeable from the outside, as a portion of the wall suddenly protruded.

"Pitter-patter, pitter-patter!"

Debris fell slowly from beside Li Chen and hit the ground while he, with his head lowered, lapsed into silence.

At that moment, a figure slowly appeared at the doorway of the villa room. Looking at Li Chen, Li Xinmei’s face revealed a seductive smile: "How about that, my Lord Nether King? Was that strike forceful enough?"

"Last time, you were lucky, but this time, you might not be so fortunate." Li Xinmei looked at Li Chen and said with a light smile.

"Rattle rattle!"

Hearing Li Xinmei’s words, Li Chen slowly extricated himself from the wall and looked sharply at her: "It really was you."

"It seems that all these incidents lately were your doing?"

"What incident?" Li Xinmei looked at Li Chen, her expression seemingly puzzled: "Oh, you mean these guys?"

"To me, they’re just food, just like how humans eat meals. Eating them, what’s wrong with that?" Li Xinmei said with a blink of her eyes.

Li Chen started to laugh in response to Li Xinmei’s words: "Does that mean you are no longer human?"

To his surprise, Li Xinmei actually nodded: "Of course, I’ve transcended the inferior race that is humanity."

"However, among humans, you are quite exceptional. That is why you can be my enemy. For them, they are merely food."

"Should I feel honored then?" Li Chen tilted his head and asked.

"You should," Li Xinmei’s eyes held a strange gleam.

As the two were still conversing, the next moment their figures collided fiercely.

"Sssss..."

Infused with True Qi, Lin Yi’s fist, under the full force of his release, abruptly hammered directly towards Li Xinmei’s neck.

Against such an enemy, he struck at the most lethal location, determined to kill the opponent by the simplest means without wasting any more energy.

However, in the next moment, Lin Yi was shocked to discover that his fist had been caught.

"Snap!"

With a single hand stretched out as if catching a baseball, Li Xinmei casually caught Lin Yi’s punch, her face wearing a mocking smile as she looked at him.

"What’s the matter? Lord Nether King, didn’t you have your meal today?"

Lin Yi’s complexion changed, and just as he attempted to retract his fist, he saw Li Xinmei’s attack already arriving.

To the side of Lin Yi, a slender leg with trailing afterimages thunderously landed on his shoulder.

Almost in the blink of an eye, Lin Yi’s entire body was sent flying once again.

Boom!!

This time, Lin Yi did not end up embedded in the wall as before.

This time, he had broken right through the wall.

"Pugh!"

Lying on the ground, Lin Yi suddenly spat out a large mouthful of blood.

If the previous strike had only caused him light injuries, this one had truly inflicted a severe wound upon him.

Even his entire left shoulder had become numb at this moment.

More seriously, his internal organs had been shocked.

Before Lin Yi could recover, Li Xinmei appeared once again behind him.

Bang!!

With another kick, Lin Yi was sent crashing back into the villa, and Li Xinmei, not even waiting for him to land, ruthlessly pursued and landed another punch on Lin Yi’s chest.

Thump!!

Several tumbles later, Lin Yi retreated to the corner, knelt on one knee, bleeding from the corner of his mouth nonstop.

He didn’t understand, couldn’t comprehend, why in such a short span of time, Li Xinmei’s strength had soared to such an extent.

The last time they met, she was only on par with him, yet now, in such a brief period, she was completely overwhelming him. Such strength was definitely not achieved through normal means.

Li Xinmei didn’t give Lin Yi much time to think as she launched another attack towards him.

"No, I can’t keep going like this, otherwise, before anyone else arrives, I might have already lost my life."

Arms blocking, Lin Yi’s body was once again forcefully blasted into the air.

Watching Li Xinmei’s renewed assault, Lin Yi’s eyes flashed with ferocity.

"So it’s come to a fight to the death, huh?! You think you can bully me that easily?!"

After the series of beatings from Li Xinmei, Lin Yi’s body was already overstressed, but he knew if he didn’t fight back with all his might, it wouldn’t just be a matter of overstress.

If he didn’t fight back with all his might, he would be dead!

"Come on!! Let’s play a game of life and death!" Lin Yi’s eyes instantly flooded with a bloody hue.

Within his body, the True Qi instantly transformed into a fist, ferociously slamming into the Mysterious Energy.

In almost an instant, an incredibly wild aura erupted from Lin Yi’s body.

Even Li Xinmei, feeling this aura, showed a slight change in expression.

"Roar!!"

From Lin Yi’s mouth came an inhuman roar as many places on his body almost immediately split open, with copious amounts of blood spraying forth from within him.

Yet Lin Yi, seemingly oblivious to his own blood loss, rushed at Li Xinmei at the first opportunity, his fist morphing into a sharp arrow as he swung ferociously at her.

"Hmph! Playing tricks!"

Li Xinmei’s face showed no fear as she met his blow with a palm of her own.

Boom!!

Lin Yi staggered back two steps, his blood again splattering.

Li Xinmei, on the other hand, was forced to retreat seven or eight steps.

Just as Li Xinmei was preparing to react again, Lin Yi had already charged at her once more.

Bang!

Bang!!

Bang!!!

After three consecutive clashes, Li Xinmei could no longer withstand such a furious barrage and for the first time sustained an injury.

"Spurt!"

A mouthful of fresh blood spat out as Li Xinmei’s figure uncontrollably flew backward.

And at that moment, Lin Yi’s blood-red eyes fixated on her intently.

For some reason, the moment she was targeted by those eyes, Li Xinmei involuntarily felt a sense of palpitations.

"Damn it! How has he become stronger again?!"

Having retreated a distance, Li Xinmei coldly eyed Lin Yi. By now, sounds from outside the villa indicated the Nether Army had likely arrived.

Apart from the Nether Army, there was also the sound of police sirens. Li Xinmei looked at Lin Yi, her lips curling into a cold smirk.

"Lin Yi, I’ll spare you this time. I hope you’ll be as lucky next time."

With those words, Li Xinmei lightly tapped her foot, and her entire body gracefully vanished within the villa.
