Chapter 2116 - 2117: Seal All Exits and Entrances
As Ye Xunhuan made his move, it was impossible for Olivia not to act. Even though killing those three people would undoubtedly create some noise, she couldn’t just stand there dumbfounded!
Therefore, at the moment Ye Xunhuan launched his attack, Olivia pounced like a cheetah spotting an antelope, swiftly joining the fray.
The speed at which Ye Xunhuan and Olivia struck was lightning-fast, and with the element of surprise on their side, they were instantly behind the three men.
Instantly, a surge of cold shivers ran down the spines of the three men, their hair standing on end as a bad premonition emerged from the depths of their hearts.
Without turning their heads, the three men instinctively dodged to the side.
Their evasive speed was extremely fast, a rapid response that clearly indicated these three had been baptized by blood, having skirted and struggled on the brink of death many times!
Otherwise, it would be impossible for them to react so swiftly in the first instance!
Though the men reacted quickly, Ye Xunhuan and Olivia’s actions were even swifter.
After all, this was a meticulously planned ambush on their part.
"Swish!"
"Swish!"
Two icy gleams of death instantly flashed, severing one man’s arm and carving a lengthy gash across another man’s back, while the third man was only lightly wounded!
"Who are you?"
The man who was lightly wounded immediately asked.
Ye Xunhuan and Olivia paid him no mind, swiftly swinging their blades again.
Just as they struck, the man with the wound on his back put his fingers to his lips and blew a loud, piercing whistle.
The tranquil valley was immediately shattered.
Ye Xunhuan and Olivia’s faces turned grim, for they knew the message had been sent, alerting others to their intrusion.
"Quick and decisive!" Ye Xunhuan whispered sharply to Olivia.
Though Ye Xunhuan didn’t need to tell her, Olivia knew they had to act quickly now. If others arrived, they would be cornered like dumplings being wrapped.
In a flash, Olivia and Ye Xunhuan moved even faster.
Due to their sudden ambush, they had the upper hand, and their strength allowed them to suppress the three men, quickly eliminating them!
After killing the three men, Ye Xunhuan and Olivia dared not linger. Like headless flies, they scurried frantically through the quiet valley.
Less than a minute after Ye Xunhuan and Olivia left, a middle-aged man arrived with others.
The middle-aged man wore an embroidered ash-gray robe, with a square jaw, hooked nose, and large eyes!
Upon seeing the three bodies on the ground, the man’s face darkened immediately: "Find out who entered Broken Cliff Residence!"
"Yes!"
"Dead or alive, it doesn’t matter!"
Broken Cliff Residence was a forbidden zone, the guardian’s territory, where no outsiders were permitted, let alone commit murder.
Now someone had intruded and killed three of their own, blatantly challenging them and disregarding their authority.
Thus, whoever it was must die!
"Seal all entries and exits into the valley!" The middle-aged man ordered. "Alert everyone to enter Level One alert!"
Soon, the entire area of Broken Cliff Residence was on high alert, resembling ancient soldiers preparing for battle!
Ye Xunhuan and Olivia didn’t know how many experts were in Broken Cliff Residence or what chaos would ensue from killing those three men.
After taking down their targets, they lay flat in a flowerbed, waves of people unknowingly passing by them!
For a moment, Ye Xunhuan and Olivia dared not breathe, fearing discovery.
Once everything quieted down, Olivia couldn’t help but whisper to Ye Xunhuan, "Idiot, I told you not to act, and now this! What do we do?"
"We had to act eventually," Ye Xunhuan replied indifferently. "We’ll alert them sooner or later, it makes no difference!"
In Moscow, Ye Xunhuan had heard that the average strength of experts in Broken Cliff Residence was at a transcendental level, so silent entry was impossible.
If they were bound to be noticed, they might as well disrupt them early and keep the guards on edge.
Ye Xunhuan was also curious to see how long their tension would last.
In other words, Ye Xunhuan aimed to mentally exhaust them, vanishing after alerting them and playing hide-and-seek until they couldn’t find him.
Once their vigilance waned, he’d strike back, engaging in guerrilla warfare to deplete their resources, slowly moving toward their core location.
Ye Xunhuan’s plan was roundabout and time-consuming, but you couldn’t deny its relative safety and effectiveness!
Understanding Ye Xunhuan’s rationale, Olivia stopped arguing and sighed inwardly: "Now what?"
"Stay put and let them keep searching!" Ye Xunhuan said softly. "With so many flowerbeds, they won’t find us in just a few hours!"
"I hope you’re right, or we’ll pay the price!" Olivia expressed her concern.
After all, Broken Cliff Residence was the guardian’s territory, unfamiliar to them, and they had no map.
It wasn’t for lack of trying; they simply couldn’t get one!
Suddenly, an idea struck Ye Xunhuan like a flash of inspiration. His face lit up with joy: "How could I forget this!"
"What is it?"
"The Dragon Head gave me three pouches, remember?"
Olivia’s eyes sparkled with realization.
