Chapter 498: Escape

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

This pair of eyes that were even bluer than Xiu’s belonged to a little girl who looked to be only about ten years old.

She clearly did not discover that Chu Nan was in front of her and only raised her head to look at the sky outside the window. She opened her mouth and muttered something.

Chu Nan glanced at the girl and knew that he had found the right place.

It was impossible for him to be wrong about such pure Rand characteristics.

Looking into the room, he saw dozens of people lying in the huge room. Because most of them were sleeping, he could not verify their identities through their eyeballs.

However, from the few people who still had their eyes open, they were all blue eyeballs. Coupled with some other characteristics that belonged to the Rand Clansmen, it proved that the people locked in this house were indeed all from the Rand Clan.

Clearly, what was locked in this house should be the Rand slaves that the Angelo Chamber of Commerce had only obtained two days ago and planned to sell.

As for whether these Rand slaves were Xiu’s clansmen, he still needed to verify it.

Chu Nan turned around and glanced at the guards who had already checked the commotion and returned to their positions. He thought for a moment and his Internal Breath moved. Spatial energy was triggered and an explosion suddenly occurred on the ground more than ten meters behind him on his left. The pile of goods that were originally covering the ground suddenly exploded and instantly flew into the sky like flowers.

The guards were stunned.

This time, their attention was attracted more than before. They turned around in unison and naturally, no one estimated Chu Nan’s direction.

Chu Nan immediately eliminated the effect of the spatial energy around his body and appeared again. He raised his wrist and opened the virtual screen of his personal terminal to record the situation in the room.

The little girl behind the window suddenly saw a person inexplicably appear in front of her and was immediately shocked. She opened her mouth and cried out in surprise.

However, just as she attracted the attention of the other Rand Clansmen in the room and looked over, she discovered that that person had actually disappeared for no reason!

The girl pointed out the window in a daze. After a while, she rubbed her eyes.

Could it be that she was seeing things?

The explosion could not attract the guards’ attention for too long, so Chu Nan only had time to use his personal terminal to record the situation in the room in a short period of time and had to hide again.

Although it was definitely not that clear and comprehensive, as long as he showed the recording to Xiu, he believed that she could recognize if the Rand Clansmen here were her people.

If so, Dong Fang had prepared two plans to save her clansmen.

If not, he could only think of another way.

After confirming that his personal terminal had indeed accurately recorded the situation in the room, Chu Nan observed his surroundings and planned to return the way he had entered.

After carefully observing his surroundings, Chu Nan quickly obtained accurate statistics about his surroundings. Then, his figure moved and he easily returned to the edge of the building complex.

After his figure entered the darkness of a building at the edge, Chu Nan heaved a sigh of relief.

The most dangerous mission had been completed. Next, he only needed to sneak out and successfully return to Nightclub City to complete this mission without anyone knowing.

However, just as he moved, a change occurred.

The spatial energy in the surrounding space suddenly seemed to have become extremely sticky, causing his body to seem to have suddenly fallen into a swamp. Any movement became extremely difficult.

At the same time, spatial energy that seemed to be a corporeal state condensed in the space above his head and pressed down. Just sensing it made him feel as if he was carrying a mountain. He could not take a step forward at all, and it was even difficult for him to maintain his posture.

Chu Nan was shocked and knew that he had already been exposed and alarmed the other party’s experts.

He did not dare to be negligent. He took a deep breath and activated his Internal Breath with all his might. The spatial energy that had frozen around his body was instantly triggered by his Internal Breath and became active again.

At the same time, the spatial energy that was crazily pressing down from the mountain above was also affected by him. Although it did not directly dissipate, and it was no longer as heavy as a mountain, there was only slight pressure.

Chu Nan immediately felt his entire body lighten. He tapped his feet and his body darted out like an arrow.

“Eh?”

A surprised voice sounded behind him, which turned into a cold snort.

“Hmph! You’ve been secretly messing around under my nose for so long, and you still want to escape easily? You’re simply dreaming!”

Chu Nan suddenly felt the pressure behind him multiply. An irresistible powerful force fused with terrifying spatial energy and attacked at high speed.

Feeling the intense change in the space behind him, Chu Nan quickly determined that it was impossible for him to escape so easily.

His brain, which was equivalent to an A.I., quickly calculated all the data. He immediately made a judgment, turned around, and threw a punch.

Boom!

In the dark void that seemed to be empty, an abnormally bright light suddenly erupted. Then, the explosion spread in all directions, as if a bomb had suddenly exploded. It was especially shocking at night.

The aftershock of the two intense spatial energy collisions directly collapsed the two houses near the center of the explosion. Even the residue was blown away and instantly turned into flat ground.

Chu Nan’s body swayed and he spat out a mouthful of blood.

The other party was clearly a high-level Void Break Martial Artist. This time, the other party was fully prepared and the spatial energy he controlled far exceeded Chu Nan’s counterattack, causing him to immediately suffer considerable injuries in this collision.

However, Chu Nan’s original intention was not to tangle with the other party. After fighting head-on, he borrowed the powerful impact and flew back at high speed. At the same time, he circulated his Internal Breath and forcefully broke the spatial energy seal barrier set up by the other party before disappearing into the night outside the dense forest.

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

A high-pitched and ear-piercing alarm sounded throughout the small base, echoing continuously.

This was because Chu Nan had not deliberately avoided the detection of the warning system when he fled earlier and triggered the alarm.

The flames of the explosion faded. Amidst the chaotic figures and the alarm, a thin middle-aged man who looked to be about 40 years old revealed himself and looked in the direction where Chu Nan had disappeared with a dark expression.

A guard who looked like the leader appeared from the side and asked the middle-aged man in confusion, “Lord Falk, aren’t you going to chase after him?”

“Idiot!” The middle-aged man called Lord Falk cursed him bluntly, “If I chase after him, when anyone else comes, can you trash block them?”

The guard could only be obsequious and did not dare to refute.

“Watch that house carefully! It’s fine if the other places are gone, but you can’t lose those slaves inside, understand?”

Lord Falk shouted at the guards to retreat and turned to look in the direction where Chu Nan had disappeared. He snorted heavily and a trace of doubt appeared in his eyes.

“Strange, who sent him? They’re actually willing to use a precious Void Break expert as a spy.”
