Chapter 708: 708 Sister Lan: You’ve lived for a long time, right? [Chapter 2]

"..."

These four words successfully stopped Ye Wanlan.

The sound of the wind seemed to pause at that moment, everything became silent as if reaching the endless end of time and space.

In an instant, many unexplained things became clear.

Why Extreme Path would help her.

Why both times it was due to Extreme Path’s appearance that she gained enough time.

Such things, along with many previous puzzles, were unraveled at this moment, everything became clear.

But the current situation was urgent, not allowing her to sit down and have a good talk with Yan Tingfeng.

Because the real enemy was still in the shadows.

"Tingting, hold me hostage." Ye Wanlan said silently with lip language, "Even if it’s Extreme Path, there must be spies from the Heaven-reaching Tower within."

Actually, she didn’t need to say much more. Yan Tingfeng already knew what to do from a single glance.

He suddenly switched from defense to offense, his long and powerful arms trapping Ye Wanlan against his left chest.

In the next second, his feet took off, carrying the girl in his arms away.

Everything happened in a split second, so fast that none present had time to react.

By the time Christine came back to her senses, Ye Wanlan and the Jidao Sect Leader were already gone.

Darn it!

Since the Jidao Sect Leader dared to face the Sky Tower Master alone, it showed this man’s strength was unfathomable.

Ye Wanlan being taken by him could only mean bad luck!

Christine, anxious, started scrolling through her phone, searching for people she could contact.

[World’s Richest]: Who’s free at this moment? Extreme Path Headquarters, come quickly.

[Shenzhou University Gate Security]: I heard Extreme Path people barged into your place? I think something’s fishy, maybe someone is stirring up trouble from the shadows, don’t start fighting outright.

[Ghostbuster Bro]: I suspect it’s the Heaven-reaching Tower!

[Crazy Scientist]: Agreed.

[World’s Richest]: What nonsense are you talking? It’s Sister YN who was taken by the Jidao Sect Leader.

[Deadly Poison Master]: ???

[Cultured Person]: !!!

Like a stone thrown into a thousand waves, this sentence immediately blew up the whole group.

[Shenzhou University Gate Security]: Wait, Shenzhou University is nearby, I’ll be there soon.

Others also took action, yet this did not ease Christine’s anxiety.

The speed of the Jidao Sect Leader was too fast, she had no clue where Ye Wanlan was taken.

Christine issued an order to the young deacon.

[Vlad, deploy all unmanned drones.]

"Indeed, the boss is more skilled!" Over there, the Left Protector stood up excitedly, "I told you, earlier the boss was letting her win, he was testing."

The Right Protector frowned: "That’s not right."

Even though they were far apart, he still caught a hint of anomaly.

The boss and that mysterious woman seemed to have reached some consensus, this consensus paused them for half a second, then they both left.

What was that all about?

The Right Protector suddenly seemed to think of something, he shivered and looked at the Left Protector, trembling, "Old Zuo, do you... you think, just now that woman could be the boss’s phone wallpaper...."

The Left Protector’s eyes widened: "No way?!"

Knowing top figures in various fields of the Global Center, being so capable on her own, with exceptional looks, what window did God ever close for her?

"It must be!" The Right Protector clenched his right hand into a fist and pounded on his left palm, "With my brilliant mind, it absolutely can’t be wrong."

The Left Protector stared at him blankly: "So the boss recognized his phone wallpaper, and now he’s eloping with his phone wallpaper...?"

**

The night was starless and moonless, with a sky full of dense clouds.

The wind blowing through, the black night was serene and quiet.

"I was just thinking, which expert from Shenzhou is hiding here." Ye Wanlan sat atop a building, looking up at the sky, "Turns out it was you, Tingting."

"I dare not call myself an expert." Yan Tingfeng blinked lightly, "Xiao Wan’s skills are admirable."

"This makes sense, the 723 Bureau and the Extreme Path Organization were both established in the early 21st century." Ye Wanlan spoke unhurriedly, "The former protects Shenzhou, the latter upholds justice at the Global Center, although one guards and one attacks, their true aims are the same."

Yan Tingfeng’s pupils shone brightly.

"So, you’ve actually lived a long time, haven’t you?" Ye Wanlan looked at him, casually saying, "723 Bureau and Extreme Path Organization, you’ve been the only leader, never replaced."

"!"

Yan Tingfeng’s heart shook fiercely.

He met her blue eyes, as if in an instant something was seen through.

After a moment of silence, Yan Tingfeng said in a low voice, "I... have indeed lived for quite some time, my age is many times my outward appearance."

"I see..." Ye Wanlan frowned in thought, "This aligns with something else."

Yan Tingfeng pondered: "Xiao Wan, are you referring to the Time Administration Bureau?"

"Yes." Ye Wanlan said calmly, "I am a Time Betrayer, and so are you, which is why at the moment we met, quantum entanglement occurred, I grasped the intersection on the correct timeline, successfully escaping the time loop."

Otherwise, in the time loop where she met so many people, why was it only upon meeting Yan Tingfeng on that night that the previously halted time flowed again?

"Am I a Time Betrayer too?" Yan Tingfeng looked at his own hands, "But it seems I haven’t gone through things like Xiao Wan."

"That punisher last time mentioned, there are many penalties for Time Betrayers." Ye Wanlan nodded, "Perhaps more mysteries await the appearance of the next punisher to solve."

The two sat quietly, the wind passing by, the time felt tranquil and beautiful.

However, at the Extreme Path Headquarters at this moment, there was no connection to the word peace at all.

"Where is your Sect Leader?" Christine asked coldly, "Speak! If anything happens to her, I’ll bring down your lair!"

Yeh Xingli immediately raised the latest weapon in his hand, aiming at the Right Protector.

"Don’t kill them yet." Ling Yunzhan said, "We need to force out the Jidao Sect Leader’s whereabouts."

"Oh my, I’ve got a way, don’t always resort to weapons." Iliate snapped his fingers, delighted, "Feed him a Truth-telling Pill, and it’ll make him spill everything, even his ex’s favorite songs."

"Nonsense!" The Left Protector was instantly furious, "I’ve never had a relationship!"

Right Protector: "..."

Is this something to brag about?

At this moment, the Right Protector was almost losing it.

Because all the names Yan Tingfeng mentioned earlier, were now almost entirely appearing before their eyes.

Even the Sky Tower Master couldn’t possibly gather all these people.

Yet such a spectacle appeared.

The boss wasn’t here, and the boss’s phone wallpaper wasn’t here either, relying solely on him and Old Zuo, how could they withstand the wrath of these people?

"Everyone stay calm, stay calm." The Right Protector took a deep breath, "There’s a misunderstanding here, the boss wouldn’t harm that young lady, I swear on my character!"

"Character is something so easily discarded." Wen Chaosheng waved his hand, "Useless."

"Still, feed him the pill." Iliate took out a bottle of pills, "I’ll do it."

The Right Protector was nearly in despair.

Reasoning didn’t work, no photo of their boss was on his phone, he didn’t even know their boss’s real name.

What should be done?

"Be good, the medicines I concoct are sweet, swallow it like a candy bean." Iliate smiled happily, "But my latest pill is not widely used, so I don’t know the side effects, but no worries, we’ll know soon."

The Right Protector watched the pill approaching him, cold sweat on his forehead.

This somewhat wacky young man, what kind of terrible identity did he have?

The boss never said anything!

Just when the pill was about to be forced into his mouth, footsteps sounded.

Christine’s expression lit up: "Ah Lan?!"

Ye Wanlan walked in side by side with Yan Tingfeng.
