The Bodyguard King’s CEO Wife Chapter 1946: Destroy This Place
Previously on The Bodyguard King’s CEO Wife...
Ye Shikai had once studied the martial techniques of various families across Huaxia and was very familiar with most of them, but the techniques of this group in front of him, although uniform, felt unfamiliar. This indicated they were not from any particular family, but he didn’t rule out that they might have cooperated with other families or organizations. From the current situation, this group was responsible for cultivating worms and using them as hidden weapons as part of a "organization."
"Who exactly are you people?" Ye Shikai questioned.
"Mr. Ye, I advise you to leave quickly," the leader of the black-robed people suddenly said.
"You know me." Ye Shikai was somewhat surprised that this person actually recognized him, even though Ye Shikai didn’t know him. Since this person knew Ye Shikai’s identity, who could he be, and what were his motives?
"Mr. Ye, it’s best if you don’t interfere with this matter. I can assure you that what we do will not conflict with your interests or pose any threat to you." The leader of the black-robed people implied that their actions were not related to Ye Shikai and his group, urging not to meddle.
"We’ve already fought this far, and now you’re saying this? Isn’t it a bit late?" Ye Shikai, with formidable skills, had gained the upper hand. The other party’s words were likely a stalling tactic, essentially admitting defeat. Yet Ye Shikai had no plans to let them off so easily. One shouldn’t make enemies without reason, but also not shy away from trouble—especially with this group of black-robed people, leaving them unchecked could have endless repercussions.
"Today, I will eliminate your kind of organization; it should have been eradicated long ago." After saying that, Ye Shikai thrust his sword at the leader of the black-robed people, and with one move, sent him retreating.
"Release the Mad Bees now." With a command from the leader, several subordinates pressed the buttons on the stone wall, and two large windows suddenly appeared on the sides of the stone wall.
Buzz, buzz, buzz.
Instantly, many "bees" flew out from the windows, emitting an ear-piercing and chaotic noise as they charged toward the crowd.
"Everyone be careful and gather together," Ye Shikai ordered. The group gathered as these "bees," which looked like bees but were actually worms. Ye Shikai was concerned someone might fall behind and get injured, so he commanded quickly.
"Wuyan, what are these things?" Ye Shikai asked.
"Mad Bees are a type of worm, triple the size of ordinary bees, highly poisonous. Everyone be cautious, if stung by them, you’ll immediately lose consciousness."
"They are actually quite formidable." Ye Shikai murmured, realizing these creatures were an enhanced version of the Killing Bees.
"Why do these Mad Bees only attack us?"
"Mad Bees attack opponents based on scent; they have already sprayed special powder on themselves, so the bees won’t attack them," Wuyan explained.
"Everyone, move back." Ye Shikai ordered everyone to retreat, took out the Fire Element, and sprayed a blaze in the air. The fire instantly engulfed the Mad Bees, accompanied by crackling sounds. However, these Mad Bees were also "smart," dispersed, and attacked the crowd from all directions.
"Quick, let’s leave here now." At this moment, the black-robed people attempted to escape through the back passage, but Ye Shikai didn’t plan to let them go so easily, and immediately rushed over.
"Cover me."
"Poisonous Insect King." Wuyan released the Poisonous Insect King, and as soon as the Fat Cicada appeared, the swarm of Mad Bees scattered like dark clouds, "opening" a path.
"Let’s follow." Wuyan urged, the group quickly following the route carved out by the Poisonous Insect King. The Mad Bees seemed to have a distinct fear of the King, even their buzzing stopped.
"Charge."
...............
"Still trying to run?" Ye Shikai mocked coldly, quickly rushing forward to eliminate two blocking black-robed men, and continued the pursuit. Yet, they evidently knew the terrain better, darting through twists and turns. If not for Ye Shikai’s fast movement technique, he might have lost them.
"Where do you think you’re running?" Ye Shikai charged forward, thrusting his sword at the opponent. The black-robed man dodged swiftly, while the remaining guards resisted desperately. But none were a match for Ye Shikai, who quickly dispatched them.
"I’ll give you one more chance, tell me your identity and purpose, and perhaps I’ll spare your life."
"Mr. Ye, I’m certain to die today. But I still advise you not to interfere with our work; it’s detrimental to you." The leader of the black-robed people took out a dagger from his pocket. Just as Ye Shikai was about to act, he suddenly aimed the dagger at his throat, slicing across...
"No way." Ye Shikai exclaimed in shock as the leader of the black-robed men committed suicide right in front of him, decisively determined to die—unexpected; why wouldn’t he resist even slightly?
After a long while, Ye Shikai finally reacted, but the black-robed man was already dead before him, leaving him somewhat at a loss.
"What happened?" At this time, Wuyan and Ji Qian along with others joined up, the Mad Bees no longer pursued.
"He committed suicide." Ye Shikai said blandly.
"What, what is going on?" Ji Qian asked.
"I don’t know either; he just committed suicide, maybe... there’s a secret he’s unwilling to share." Ye Shikai smiled wryly, realizing that to avoid revealing the secret, life itself was forsaken.
Now that he’s dead, it holds no significance, Ye Shikai stepped forward to remove his hood, unsurprisingly finding a stranger. He had nothing valuable on him.
"Boss, what should we do next? It’s two hours until daylight now." Ghost asked.
"Let’s spread out and check the surroundings, search for any other incubation jars; gather back here in half an hour," Ye Shikai ordered. Although the black-robed people were all dead now, there’s no choice. But from the leader’s words, Ye Shikai understood something; at least this leader wasn’t the mastermind, merely responsible for worm cultivation.
"Yes."
"Yes."
Half an hour later.
"How did it go, any findings?" The group gradually returned to the meeting point, but their expressions all looked dejected.
"Nothing found, Boss, there might be other mechanisms here, but just in half an hour, we can’t pinpoint anything, and we didn’t bring tools when we came."
"It’s almost daylight now, since we couldn’t find anything important here, this place shouldn’t be left as is, it must be completely destroyed."
