Chapter 554 - 534: A Late Realization
Sun Zhe immediately performed the Witch’s Step, silently leaping to the roof, stepping on the green tiles and moving towards the direction of the noise.
Before long, he witnessed a brutal scene in the corridor downstairs.
Under the dim lights.
Three bare-chested middle-aged men were tormenting a young man.
The young man’s clothes were tattered, his entire body covered in blood, completely helpless under the three men’s assault.
After being shocked with electricity, the young man fell to the ground, convulsing and unconscious.
"Damn it..."
Sun Zhe was furious, without a second thought, he turned into a lightning bolt and dashed forward, knocking the three men to the ground with a few punches, helping the young man up and quietly injecting a trace of Pure Yang True Qi into him.
"Hey, are you alright?"
The young man slowly opened his eyes, and upon seeing Sun Zhe, was momentarily stunned, his expression filled not with gratitude, but fear.
"Relax, I mean no harm."
The young man shrank back a little, trembling as he spoke, "You... are you one of them?"
Sun Zhe gently shook his head, "I’m here looking for someone. What’s your name?"
The young man stared blankly at Sun Zhe, his eyes gradually lighting up, suddenly collapsing to his knees with a thud.
"My name is Chen Feng!"
"Brother, you’re the legendary Martial Artist, aren’t you? Please, help save my parents, they’re also locked up here."
Sun Zhe helped him up, "Calm down a bit first, I have some questions to ask you."
"Alright... go ahead, brother."
Sun Zhe took out his phone and showed a picture of Leng Yueshuang, asking, "Were you also captured and held here?"
"Yes... I was on vacation with my parents, traveling, and after boarding a bus at Huangsha Town, realized it wasn’t going to our destination, then we ended up here."
Sun Zhe showed the phone screen to Chen Feng, "Have you seen this woman?"
Chen Feng looked closely, shook his head after a while, "I haven’t seen her. Brother, is she your girlfriend? She’s really beautiful."
Sun Zhe put away his phone and asked, "Where were you held before?"
Chen Feng trembled all over, replied shakily, "I don’t know exactly, only the approximate location."
"Take me there."
"Okay. Brother, you must save my parents!"
"Don’t worry."
"..."
Turning and winding for nearly twenty minutes, Chen Feng led Sun Zhe to a man-made lake surrounded by green trees on all sides.
Chen Feng said, "Brother, earlier I escaped secretly through a pipe when they weren’t paying attention. I came out here in this lake. There are many venomous snakes in the lake."
Sun Zhe wasn’t in the mood for idle talk, squatted by the lakeside, and quietly activated the Yin Yang X-ray Vision.
Using the X-ray Vision, he discovered this lake indeed had a hidden world, numerous metal pipes varied in size and thickness crisscrossed, with venomous snakes lurking among them.
And beneath the lake, there was a vast underground space.
In the underground space, many furnace-like items were emitting steam, and people in uniform walked around carrying trays or pushing small carts.
Sun Zhe’s face gradually darkened, injecting more True Qi into his eyes, making the lakebed space even clearer.
Only then did he discover that the trays and carts held severed limbs and organs.
Without exception, all were human!
On those stone platforms, some people were chopping bodies with axes.
The entire underground space resembled a large slaughterhouse.
The only difference was, the slaughtered weren’t pigs, cows, or sheep, but people.
"These beasts!"
Sun Zhe clenched his fists tightly, his heart burned with rage.
Meanwhile, he felt extreme fear—what if Leng Yueshuang suffered the same fate?
"Blublublu..."
At that moment, the lake surface suddenly bubbled, as if boiling.
Immediately, the air was filled with a rich fishy smell, mixed with a burnt odor, like scorched meat.
Sun Zhe pushed his knees down, slowly stood up, about to speak, and suddenly froze, then glanced at Chen Feng.
Chen Feng met his gaze, and felt a chill, asking, "Brother, what’s wrong?"
Sun Zhe gently shook his head, without a trace, quietly activated Zhou You’s Taixu, saying, "This lake is used for exhaust emissions, the real entrance is elsewhere."
Chen Feng looked bewildered, "I don’t know where the entrance is, I only came out from this lake."
"Chen Feng."
Sun Zhe suddenly called out.
"Um... What’s wrong, brother?"
Sun Zhe closed the Yin Yang X-ray Vision, saying, "Why don’t you find a place to hide? I’ll try to save them."
Chen Feng simply smiled and shook his head, "Immortal, where else could I hide?"
Sun Zhe smirked, jokingly said, "If there’s nowhere to hide, why not send you to King Yama’s place?"
Chen Feng froze upon hearing, slowly retreated a few steps, "Brother, what do you mean?"
Sun Zhe sighed, "New to the world, lacking experience."
"I thought avoiding the array would let me slip in unnoticed, but overlooked one thing."
Chen Feng lowered his head, "What did you overlook?"
Sun Zhe pointed to a bird’s nest in the tree not far away, said, "The power of technology."
The bird’s nest was actually surveillance.
"Hehehehehe..."
Chen Feng lowered his head, shoulders shaking continuously, letting out a strange laughter.
When he looked up again, his harmless, pitiful look had vanished, replaced by a chilling, sinister grin.
It was a smile only the most extreme psychopaths could show.
"Brother, when did you realize?"
Sun Zhe looked at him expressionlessly, "Just now."
Chen Feng stretched lazily, turned and walked away unhurriedly, "Forget it, not playing anymore, it’s truly boring."
Suddenly paused, said, "Oh right, brother, the chick you asked about earlier, I actually met her. Her name is Leng Yueshuang, from Yang City in Hua Country, always against us."
"What a pity, I fear breaking my success, otherwise I’d really want to catch and play for a few days."
Sun Zhe’s face darkened, "Where is she?"
Chen Feng shrugged, "Who knows? Maybe still running for her life, or maybe already captured by the Chen Family disciples, perhaps now being hung up, people lining up."
Sun Zhe took a deep breath, "If something happens to her, your entire Chen Family will be buried with her."
"Brother, such bold words, why not first try the power of my Chen Family?"
Then snapped his fingers elegantly, "Brothers, capture this brother and have fun with him."
However.
Following his command, there was no response.
Sun Zhe calmly said, "Sorry, while watching the lake, I killed everyone you arranged for the ambush nearby."
