In a house near Zhang Yan’s neighborhood, two young men with sinister expressions were holding cigarettes in their hands. They could see Chen Yiming and Zhang Yan through the window.

“Damn it, that pretty boy got lucky,” the young man with blond hair cursed.

Another young man with tattoos all over his arms threw his cigarette to the ground and stomped it out. “Keep your voice down. When the matter blows over, do you think that Reporter Zhang can run away? At that time, the two of us will let her have a good time.”

The young man with blond hair narrowed his eyes and stared fixedly at the two people who were now at the entrance of the district. “That’s true. Now is not the time to make a move. However, since the pretty boy dared to snatch our prey, I’ll teach him a lesson when the time comes.”

The tattooed man patted his companion’s shoulder and gestured for him not to look in their direction too often. “What’s the rush? When the time comes, we can tie up the pretty boy. We can film it down and let the pretty boy see how we…”

At this point, the two young men laughed. The young man with blond hair gave him a thumbs-up. “You know how to play.”

The tattooed man shrugged. “It won’t be interesting without a little drama.”

“Swish!”

The two young men were discussing how to deal with Zhang Yan in the next few days when the door of the house they were in was cut open by a sword beam. A handsome man and a woman appeared at the door.

“You guys…”

The two young men turned around, their faces filled with fear.

There was originally a distance of 100 meters between them, with a large number of obstacles along the way. They could not figure out how they had been discovered. Could it be that the young man with blond hair had been staring at them too much?

The sensitivity of his perception was too terrifying.

Chen Yiming turned to Zhang Yan and said, “It seems like there’s really something fishy about your boyfriend, Lu Feng.”

At this moment, Zhang Yan’s heart was about to stop beating, and the pain in her ankle had started to become numb. Jiangdu City was about to undergo a huge development, and she could not understand why Lu Feng would get involved in such a matter.

The area around the house was silent. Only the sound of breathing and the occasional sound of wind could be heard.

“Little brat, you better pretend that you didn’t see anything. You have no idea how powerful the organization you’re facing is. Be careful not to get into trouble,” the tattooed man threatened. He even picked up a heavy machete from the wooden table beside him.

The young man with blond hair also took out a dagger from his waist and waved it in the air a few times as a warning.

However, the two young men sensed that the other party was too calm and did not look hesitant or afraid at all. This meant that they had failed to scare the other party with the power of the organization.

Furthermore, the two of them had been tracked down so easily.

Thinking of this, the two young men felt a lingering fear and their hair stood on end. “We can discuss this…”

Before they could finish speaking, they felt their vision blur and their opponent’s sword flashed. They were about to use their weapons to block it, but they could only feel the pain coming from their bodies.

The pupils of the two young men constricted, and the fear in their hearts multiplied infinitely. In an instant, they determined that their opponent was far from being on the same level as them.

As the pain in their bodies quickly intensified, the strength in their bodies began to disappear. They fell to the ground with a crash, and blood gushed out from the wounds on their bodies, forming a small red pool on the ground.

“You’ll regret it… No one can fight against the organization!” the young man with blond hair said before he died. Chen Yiming turned around and left. He had not taken a single step into the house from the start till the end.

“Why did you kill them? You might have been able to get some information about the organization from them,” Zhang Yan, who was beside him, said nervously.

Chen Yiming asked, “What do you think these two small fries would know?”

Zhang Yan calmed down and thought about it. Although she had only been a reporter for a few years, she had come into contact with some information regarding interrogation.

Other than the core members, those organizations that were operating in secret basically had only one-way communications, preventing the possibility of them being tracked down.

Chen Yiming didn’t say anything else and rushed towards the address of the landlord provided by Zhang Yan.

The organization that the two young men were talking about was nothing more than an organization secretly supported by the Western corporations. It was just a tool that could be formed again after being destroyed.

If he wanted to capture the real mastermind, he had to start from the people on the name list and find out what their true goal was.

The apartment rental company was a shop on the high street in the city center. According to Zhang Yan, the landlord worked in the demolition business. His ancestors owned a large piece of land, and after demolition, he started a rental company.

When Chen Yiming and Zhang Yan rushed to the shop, it was being renovated. The signboard that originally belonged to the company had been removed and thrown in a corner.

A middle-aged man was supervising the workers.

Chen Yiming stepped forward and used the excuse of renewing the apartment’s lease as an excuse to talk to him. The middle-aged man told him the whole story: the original company’s boss seemed to have a financial problem and transferred the rental contracts to him.

Chen Yiming asked Zhang Yan to contact him, but the number was no longer in use.

Both of them realized that the landlord was probably from the same organization. They left without saying much to the middle-aged man.

At this point, Jiangdu City had a special status. The prices of shops and houses continued to rise, and the market price was increasing beyond the acceptable range. It was simply because there was no shortage of buyers.

The landlord had closed down the company and disappeared. Coupled with the fact that Zhang Yan was being watched, it could be seen that Lu Feng had played a big role in this matter. It was almost certain that he was a traitor.

They arrived at an empty corner on the street.

Chen Yiming said in a low voice, “There’s a high chance that Lu Feng will be successfully rescued. You have to be prepared to pretend that you don’t know anything. Otherwise, you’ll be in danger if someone sees through your pretense.”

When Zhang Yan heard this, she was completely at a loss. When she thought about how Lu Feng would be rescued soon and how she still had to continue living with him, her entire body trembled uncontrollably.

Soon, the two of them parted ways and Chen Yiming returned to the Jiangjing Hotel.

The next day, when the sky had just turned bright, Chen Yiming brought Chen Yingying, the teachers and the students from her martial arts class to take the train to the base city and left Jiangdu City.

The city government was organizing an in-depth investigation into the disappearance of the group from Jiang City. He could only keep a low profile and aim to deal a fatal blow to the mastermind at the critical moment.

When they alighted from the train and saw the space-travel passage leading to the otherworld in the base city, the teachers and students of the martial arts academy exclaimed.

“Wow! Is that a space-travel passage?”

“The spatial rift seems to be a little terrifying. Will there be a problem if we go in?”

Chen Yiming instructed everyone, “The gravity in the otherworld is about 10 times that of the blue planet. You don’t have to fight it head-on when you enter later. No one here is an ordinary person. You’ll get used to it in a few minutes at most.”

The teachers and students of the martial arts academy listened attentively with serious expressions. They were both nervous and excited.

According to the school’s teaching materials, the otherworld was a place with a better cultivation environment, but was also a dangerous place.

The human stronghold was equivalent to a strongly-defended city, and it provided protection for the adventurers.

After giving out instructions, Chen Yiming led the way into the space-travel passage. The teachers and students of the martial arts academy lined up and followed him one after another.

The space around him changed. In a flash, he saw the otherworld again, and was greeted by the sky that was different from the blue planet.

The three glowing spheres above his head were continuously transmitting light and heat down to the ground. Due to the difference in gravity, his body felt like it was shackled.

Chen Yiming stepped to the side. Soon, the teachers and students of the martial arts academy stepped onto the land of the otherworld. He secretly helped Chen Yingying to stabilize her body so that she wouldn’t embarrass herself.

After about 10 minutes, when everyone had recovered, Chen Yiming brought them to the market operated by the stronghold.

The market had a total of two floors. Because it occupied a large area, it was very eye-catching. People were continuously entering and exiting from it, just like a large supermarket on the blue planet.

As soon as he entered, a logistics officer handed Chen Yiming an information pamphlet.

He flipped through it and realized that it was all about the exploration of the otherworld. It described the current situation of the stronghold and the problems humans faced when exploring the surrounding areas.

In addition, the officer took out a stack of shopping cards and distributed them to each person from the martial arts academy. When they received the cards, everyone smiled excitedly.

The martial arts teacher, Cai Xihe, also heaved a sigh of relief. Although he had the special funds allocated by the school head, it would not last long considering the high expenses in the otherworld.

The main thing was that Chen Yiming didn’t specify how long he planned to let them stay in the stronghold in the otherworld.

At this moment, Chen Yiming gestured for the teachers and students of the martial arts academy to enter the market and buy whatever they wanted. Everyone’s eyes lit up, and Chen Yingying was no exception. She was filled with the desire to shop.

After everyone entered, Chen Yiming asked the officer, “Has the graveyard suddenly become lively these few days?”

The officer nodded. “There are many exploration teams in the stronghold who urgently need soul crystals. There have always been people asking for them at high prices in the market, and many people have accepted the mission to draw a map of the graveyard.”

Chen Yiming frowned.

Earlier, he had suddenly thought of the disappearance of the group from Jiang City and suspected that there was something amiss in the graveyard. He did not know if the Western corporations were also involved.

It was not difficult for martial arts experts to avoid the inspection at the base city.

However, he did not want anyone to know that he was also paying attention to this matter, so he did not ask for further information.

Next, he entered the market and walked around.

The first floor was mainly filled with equipment like special clothes and weapons. The second floor was filled with consumables like biscuits, dried meat, and special beverages.

Chen Yiming chose some food that matched his preferences. As for equipment, they were useless to him. With the Sword Aura ability, he could destroy anything with one strike.

They rested in the stronghold for half a day, letting all the teachers and students experience the cultivation environment of the otherworld. Around noon, Chen Yiming led the team out of the stronghold.

“Gasp! Those people must be children from a martial arts academy!”

“I think so. Who is so bold to bring students out of the stronghold?”

“You just came back from outside, right? That man has come to the stronghold. I heard that he will be guarding it for a while.”

Near the entrance of the stronghold, many people were discussing loudly.

Many people called their friends over and had the intention to set off with them. This was the safest way. If they encountered powerful creatures from the otherworld, the man would deal with them first.

Chen Yiming planned to bring the teachers and students of the martial arts academy to the ancient tree area on the road to the graveyard.

“Wow! Wow! Wow!”

After Chen Yiming slashed at the strange bugs that crawled out of the ground, the students of the martial arts academy cheered excitedly.

In just a few days, the wasteland around the stronghold had changed. Perhaps it was because the range and frequency of human activity had increased greatly.

The underground creatures that only came out at night to hunt also appeared from time to time during the day.

Not only that, but some small creatures were also openly following the team from afar. When they saw that some of the underground creatures had been killed with one strike, they knew that they could not afford to provoke them and fled far away.

Not long after, the team arrived at the area where the ancient trees were.

There were barbarians laying out the corpses of all kinds of creatures from the otherworld in front of the ancient trees. A sacrificial ritual was underway, and the dozens of humans were equivalent to dozens of small insects to them. The barbarians did not care about them at all.

“Brother, are you leading us to kill those barbarians?” Chen Yingying pointed at the barbarians and said excitedly.

The strange alien bugs that had been killed earlier were fat and a disgusting liquid had seeped out of their bodies. When they appeared, they frightened everyone, but in the next moment, they had disappeared from the world, leaving nothing behind.

As his sister, she had been extremely proud.

Chen Yiming rolled his eyes at her and said, “How is that possible? I just brought you here to broaden your horizons.”

Chen Yingying looked a little disappointed. She looked at the barbarians and imagined Chen Yiming charging in and killing them.

The martial arts classes in school emphasized that the otherworld was evil and was the source of the current situation on the blue planet.

Therefore, to her, who was still a little naive, killing the creatures from the otherworld was a form of justice. It was everyone’s mission.

Next, Chen Yiming led everyone around the periphery of the ancient tree area. This was the territory of the barbarians and the chimpanzee-like creatures. It wasn’t a place that the teachers and students of the martial arts academy could easily enter.

Suddenly, a barbarian stuck his head out from behind an ancient tree. He was less than 10 meters tall and was half-naked. He was observing Chen Yiming and the others hesitantly.

“It seems to be a barbarian who hasn’t even reached the warrior realm,” Chen Yiming said as he gestured for the team to retreat slightly.

As soon as he finished speaking, the eyes of the students from the martial arts academy lit up. There were almost no creatures from the otherworld that they could deal with.

However, this did not mean that all the creatures from the otherworld were that powerful. It was just that the young creatures were all protected. For example, in the ancient tree area, most of the creatures that they saw were adult barbarians.

“Everyone, turn around and run back. Don’t run too fast. Pretend to be flustered.”

Chen Yiming suggested that they show their weakness to lure the young barbarian out of the ancient tree area.

The teachers and students of the martial arts academy understood his intentions and followed his instructions.

As expected, when everyone turned around and ran, the young barbarian became excited. It first walked out from behind the ancient tree and waved a bone club in his hand as he shouted at them.

Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, he turned around and looked behind him. After hesitating for a moment, he chased after them.

Their legs moved at the same pace, but the distance between the two sides visibly shortened. This was the first time the young barbarian had come into contact with humans, so he did not know that such small creatures would also have a powerful existence.

“He fell for it!”

“He got tricked!”

Some students shouted as they ran.

Even without Chen Yiming and the martial arts teachers, they were all confident that they could deal with this young barbarian in a one-on-one fight.
