Super Soldier in the City - Chapter 2252 - 2316: Capturing Babua
As he spoke, he walked towards the other person, reaching out to grab him. Just as Li Yifei extended his hand, the opponent suddenly launched an attack, his hand fiercely grasping over. The five fingers seemed like sharp claws, glinting coldly in the darkness, reaching out to Li Yifei’s hand. If they locked on, it’s likely all five fingers would pierce into Li Yifei’s arm.
"Arrogant!" Li Yifei exclaimed in Chinese. When the opponent heard this, he was clearly taken aback, and his eyes momentarily brightened. It was Li Yifei who turned on the light; the opponent was facing the direction of the light, and once the light came on, he was momentarily blinded. When he regained his senses, his hand was already caught by Li Yifei.
"Looking for death!" The opponent shouted, his arm burst out with power. Li Yifei immediately felt he couldn’t hold on. He was slightly shocked; this guy was much stronger than he expected; otherwise, his one hand control wouldn’t be so easily broken. Seeing the opponent break free, Li Yifei got serious. In such a small space, in terms of close-quarters combat, Li Yifei was confident, even if Satan himself came, Li Yifei wouldn’t be afraid.
The two exchanged blows rapidly, within moments over ten moves had passed. The opponent grew more alarmed with each hit, wondering what kind of person he was facing. Although he was going all out, the other side was dealing with ease, even chewing something during breaks.
"Huff!" A palm forced Li Yifei back, the opponent gasped heavily, looking exhausted, and realizing he’s encountering a tough opponent, one he likely couldn’t defeat.
Li Yifei was still standing at the door, unless this person could break through the carriage and escape, there’s no way he could get past Li Yifei. Even if he broke through the carriage, he wouldn’t escape either, since Li Yifei had noticed his unsteady aura from the start, not only was he shot in the chest, his aura was chaotic, while Li Yifei was in full form. How could he possibly win?
"You... cough cough!" The opponent tried to speak but suddenly coughed violently. Li Yifei said, "What? Old man, how will you compensate for my loss?"
"I’m very wealthy. If you help me leave, I’ll give you plenty of money, enough for you to buy dozens of this vehicle." The opponent said.
Li Yifei shook his head and said, "Just dozens? I can afford to buy it myself."
"Then what do you want? As long as you help me leave, I can fulfill anything you ask."
"One must be honest. At the very least, you should let me see what you look like!" Li Yifei replied.
"I advise against looking, young man. I know you’re skilled, but my identity... you..." The old man was still talking when Li Yifei suddenly flashed forward, appearing right in front of him, reaching out to tear off the cloth from his face.
With a ripping sound, Li Yifei quickly retreated, the opponent’s attack was already close, and Li Yifei hit out with two palms in response. The first palm clashed with the opponent’s hand, Li Yifei’s back slammed against the carriage, making a bang, the second palm hit the opponent’s shoulder, knocking him directly onto the bed.
"It’s you!" Li Yifei’s expression darkened as he saw the opponent’s face unveiled.
"You know me?" The person knocked onto the bed ignored the pain and immediately propped himself up, looking at Li Yifei in surprise.
Li Yifei chuckled and said, "Of course I recognize you, just didn’t expect us to meet under these circumstances!"
"Who are you?" The person on the bed asked with a grim expression.
Li Yifei said, "Elder Babua, did you escape from prison?"
A boom sounded in Elder Babua’s mind, like thunder. He didn’t expect the other person really knew him, and the word ’escape’ deeply enraged him. The opponent even knew this, what about his identity...
Babua clenched his fist, trying to clear his mind. His current physical condition was extremely poor, just like Li Yifei said, he had indeed escaped prison, though that place couldn’t be considered a prison, he did sneak out.
"You can’t defeat me!" Li Yifei’s eyes noted Babua’s reaction and said calmly: "Even if you were in normal condition, you couldn’t beat me."
"Easterners... who exactly are you?" Babua’s gaze flickered, examining Li Yifei also on guard, he had considered the Eastern person might be Li Yifei, but Babua didn’t really know Li Yifei’s exact appearance, and Li Yifei had used some disguise, making his face different from his own. Moreover, Babua believed Li Yifei was killed in an explosion, so suddenly seeing such a skilled Eastern person surprised him.
"Hehe, Elder Babua, I was actually looking for you, didn’t expect you’d fall into my hands!"
"You... you’re looking for me?"
"That’s right, I’m the one looking for you. That missile of yours really blew me to bits." Li Yifei said faintly, as if the air suddenly dropped ten degrees. Babua shivered, staring at Li Yifei with wide eyes, unable to believe what the other party was saying. He immediately shook his head and said, "No, no, it wasn’t me. I didn’t order anyone to bomb you and the Holy Maiden!"
He finally understood who the Easterner in front of him was—it was Li Yifei! Babua had just wanted to ask, weren’t you blown to smithereens? But he could more assuredly determine that the Li Yifei standing before him was indeed alive, especially since they had just fought, which meant... Li Yifei wasn’t dead, and the Holy Maiden had lied about it. However, Babua couldn’t argue about the lie now, because Li Yifei was standing there alive, making him realize that even without his current injuries, he couldn’t defeat Li Yifei.
After all, the Holy Maiden was already defeated by the other party, even after summoning the Hellhound Avatar; he shouldn’t even think about it.
"Please believe me, it really wasn’t me. I, Babua, can swear to God, if I did it, I would surely suffer..."
"That’s your god, not mine, Elder Babua. As for the assassination attempt against me and the Holy Maiden, I will definitely investigate it thoroughly, but that can wait. Right now, I’m more curious about why you’ve escaped captivity?"
Babua’s face showed a pained expression, his old face flushed, struggling to stand. Babua said, "Whether you believe it or not, it wasn’t me who tried to assassinate you. Although I have the motivation, I don’t have the necessity. Now, having fallen into your hands, I have even less reason to lie!"
"Hehe, do you think I would believe that?" Li Yifei said with a light, mocking smile.
Bahua gave a bitter smile, saying, "Indeed, since you’ve been undercover here, you must have learned of the recent events. Both of my disciples were involved, and one even left a note proving that I assigned them to do it. And the person is already dead, so I have no way to prove my innocence, only to say I’m unlucky and was just set up." 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮
"Babua, do you really think you’re innocent?" Li Yifei said, staring intently at Babua.
Babua gave a wretched smile. Li Yifei hadn’t died, the Holy Maiden had lied, and now they would undoubtedly seek to find out the true culprit and exact revenge. Right now, all the clues pointed to him, leaving him unable to justify himself.
So he sighed and said, "If I say it wasn’t me, would you believe me?"
"If that’s all you say, I naturally won’t believe it!" Li Yifei said, looking at Babua with a sarcastic expression.
Babua then said, "Sure, you wouldn’t believe it, even I wouldn’t believe it, but I know whether or not I’ve done those things."
Babua seemed to suddenly age several years, looking somewhat dispirited at Li Yifei, and said, "I didn’t expect to escape only to fall right into your hands... It’s my own fault. Do with me as you please."
"You want to run, but can you really escape?" Li Yifei sneered. After speaking, he instead turned around and walked out. Babua was still waiting for his fate to be decided, only to see Li Yifei walk out, hearing the rustling sound, and soon saw Li Yifei holding two skewers with sausages. Li Yifei took a big bite and chewed heartily, seeing Babua’s astonished face, he raised the skewer in his hand and said, "Hehe, I wasn’t hungry, but eating an apple made me hungry!"
Babua opened his mouth, realizing that this Li Yifei was different from what he imagined. This guy seemed so... sinister. Babua thought for a while before coming up with the word; at least it felt different from what he imagined.
"Hehe!" Li Yifei chuckled, then said, "The roasted sausages are pretty good, but I don’t plan to give you any!"
"Golden Eagle, what exactly do you want to do?" Babua frowned, his face looking quite uncomfortable.
"Shouldn’t I be asking you? After all, you’re the one who came running to me!"
"I just wanted to steal a car..." Babua felt like crying. Li Yifei couldn’t help but laugh heartily. He had never dealt with the elders of the Holy War Organization, but he knew these people weren’t simple and were all cunning old foxes. Seeing such a cunning old fox being played like this, he was naturally pleased.
"Elder Babua!" Li Yifei tossed away one skewer, squatting in front of Babua, and said, "Let’s not discuss whether you did it or not. I’m more interested in knowing, now that you’ve escaped, what plans do you have?"
Babua sighed and said, "I didn’t expect to meet you under such circumstances, though I had imagined meeting you several times before, even if it was your corpse!"
"Answer the question."
"No plan at all, not even knowing how I escaped myself. You probably don’t know that I was being interrogated by several elders, including the Holy Maiden. All the evidence pointed to me, and in a fit of rage, I suddenly fainted!"
