Chapter 1391: Chapter 1391: Each One is Not Simple

Lie Qi and Lin Yue chased after their target for a while but still lost sight of it, and both of them ended up gasping for breath.

"It’s strange, I clearly saw a surge of powerful life energy just now," Lie Qi said while panting and wiping sweat from his forehead.

Lin Yue believed Lie Qi. Given Lie Qi’s unique ability to see life forces that were extraordinary, it was him who had easily discovered the vampire’s whereabouts in this town and why they had launched an attack on the warehouse.

Now, Lin Yue was curious, "You mentioned this life energy, how strong was it?"

"Stronger than a hunter!" Lie Qi’s confident response made Lin Yue somewhat unable to accept it, as in his heart, only his mentor, the hunter, deserved to be called the strongest.

Suddenly, Lie Qi’s phone rang, and he answered, "Hey, little sister, how many times have I told you? Don’t keep calling me if there’s nothing important. I’m on a mission, okay?"

Lan Ning’s voice came from the other end, "Brother, I’m just worried about you showing off. Your capabilities aren’t suited for fighting; better stay back and watch from afar."

"What do you mean? You look down on your big brother like that? I’ve had training too," Lie Qi felt underestimated and was quite displeased.

In fact, Lan Ning was just concerned about Lie Qi, so she specifically called to nag him, which showed that the siblings were quite close.

Finally, after Lie Qi had reassured her repeatedly that he would be careful, Lan Ning stopped her nagging and ended the call.

Looking at his phone, Lie Qi thought of his sister Lan Ning and couldn’t help but smile.

Lin Yue commented, "Your sister, she seems nice. I wish I had a sister like that too."

"Yeah, having good relations among siblings is indeed a very happy thing," Lie Qi felt a sense of contentment, then he glanced at Lin Yue and asked, "So, you want to be an elder brother?"

Lin Yue nodded, "I did want to be an elder brother, but unfortunately, my parents had given me an elder sister. It’s my own fault for being born later."

Lie Qi became interested, "How do you get along with your sister?"

"My sister cares a lot about me. Sometimes, it makes me feel very fortunate to have such a sister," Lin Yue said with a satisfied expression.

Lie Qi asked another question, "If your sister knew how capable you are, she would be very surprised, wouldn’t she?"

Hearing this, Lin Yue’s mood changed from happiness to dejection, "I used to think about it too. If one day, my sister found out about the unique skills I possess, she would definitely be surprised."

"Of course," Lie Qi said with certainty.

"But when I found out, it wasn’t like that at all. Actually, my sister’s abilities are even greater than mine, and the one who was shocked was me," Lin Yue shook his head and sighed, finding it unbelievable whenever he thought about it.

Lie Qi was surprised, "What do you mean, your sister hides her strength even more than you do?"

"Don’t mention it; bringing it up just embarrasses me," Lin Yue gave a rueful smile and then shifted his focus back to the task at hand.

Since they had lost their original target, Lin Yue and Lie Qi returned to where the warehouse was located. The local authorities were already there cleaning up the scene, and it was the Hunter’s Guild that had informed them.

This small town was near Dark Primitive Mountain, so the local authorities really didn’t like Organization X and were especially welcoming of the Hunter’s Guild to uphold justice. In short, you guys handle Organization X, and I’ll take care of the aftermath.

If it weren’t for thinking about mutual respect, Lin Yue would have already flipped them off, considering how intense the fight had been, and none of them even came out to help.

Lie Qi was used to this lack of support from the authorities; as long as someone was taking care of the aftermath, it was fine.

Before long, the Hunter, Lie Ye, and Lie Huo returned, their grave expressions indicating that they had let Xue Long escape.

The Hunter stated that Xue Long had been wounded by his sword and temporarily lost the Xue Clan’s enhanced abilities, thus he couldn’t have gone far. As long as they blocked a few main exits, unless Xue Long grew wings, he couldn’t escape this place.

The local authorities reported that they were already arranging manpower, but were a bit concerned as it was the Xue Clan they were dealing with.

Yes, if Xue Long died in this town, given Organization X’s lunacy, they would definitely make everyone in the town accompany Xue Long in death. Therefore, they must wait for Xue Long to leave this area and get him in the wilderness outside to make their move.

One thing was certain for now: Xue Long was still in this town. They just needed to keep an eye on him and follow him.

After discussing, everyone split up to carry out their tasks.

Seeing everyone else gone and no one around, Lin Yue immediately said, "Master, just now Lie Qi sensed a life energy stronger than yours, and it probably isn’t Xue Long’s. First, Xue Long’s abilities are not as good as yours; and second, an injured person shouldn’t possess that level of life."

Hearing this, the Hunter furrowed his brow, "Are you saying that during the warehouse battle, there was another powerful individual from Organization X present?"

Lin Yue looked hesitant, "I only heard it from Lie Qi. If there really is such a person, why didn’t they intervene, and why did they just watch as Xue Long was gravely injured?"

"Indeed, why is that?" The Hunter, having interacted with Lie Qi for some time, trusted that Lie Qi wouldn’t mistake such things.

Lin Yue asked further, "During the warehouse fight, besides encountering the formidable Xue Long, did you encounter any other powerful enemies, Master?"

"Not really, though Lie Ye said he ambushed someone whose skin was impervious to blades and bullets like Lie Tie, somewhat remarkable. Could it be him?" The Hunter pondered for a moment then decided not to dwell on this matter as it was too baffling to figure out; better to focus more on how to track down Xue Long.

Suddenly, Lin Yue pulled out several IDs, "Master, these were from the people of Organization X I searched. Do you think we can use these to sneak into Dark City?"

Regarding this, Lin Yue shook his head, "Look at the photos on the IDs. You won’t get past the Dark City gate inspection with those. Unless you have the means to hack into Organization X’s data center, or someone inside with that level of access could switch the photos to yours."

"Is that so?" Lin Yue’s spirits deflated as he thought he had found a good method, but it turned out to be useless.

The Hunter added, "With the losses Organization X suffered this time, they will definitely declare these people as dead, making their IDs useless in Dark City. Better just throw them away."

"Alright, I was being naive," Lin Yue said while he crushed the IDs, then scattered the pieces into the air.
