Chapter 333: A Cigarette’s Worth Of Time

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

True qi was channeled into Ye Chen’s feet as he rushed forward. He had not expected someone else to be snooping around for the entrance to Ghost Prison!

Seeing that this person had managed to find his way here, it meant that he was in possession of some information.

Ye Chen felt that he had to find this person!

As he sped across the ground, he left a trail of turbulent wind in his wake.

Soon, Ye Chen noticed a man in a long robe a hundred meters away

/

“It’s him!”

That distance was easy enough for Ye Chen to cover using the Azure Dragon Phantom Body technique. However, as he was charging forward, a cold gleam flashed in his direction!

The man had shot out a throwing knife, and at the same time, jumped explosively over a wall and disappeared!

“You’re courting death!”

Ye Chen spread his fingers and gathered his true qi around his hand, as he grabbed the throwing knife.

At the same time, his knees burst with power as he jumped over the wall as well, which was several meters high.

This scene frightened the surrounding passersby. Some of them had wanted to take photos, but it was all over before they could even take a second breath.

Beyond the wall was a construction site. As most of the workers had gone for dinner, there were very few people around.

The long-robed man wanted to continue running, but he realized that a cold and arrogant young man was already standing in front of him…

“Where are you going?” Ye Chen’s indifferent voice rang out as his killing intent was unleashed.

The long-robed man frowned and questioned, “There shouldn’t be any grudges between us, right? Why are you blocking my way?”

“Although there is no grudge between you and me, I want to know what grudge you have with Ghost Prison!”

When the long-robed man heard Ye Chen’s words, his expression changed completely. His body was also covered in a layer of killing intent.

“You know too much. In that case, 1 can only kill you.”

The man’s sinister voice suddenly rang out.

Moments later, another throwing knife shot out from his hand, this time faster and more accurate. It was aimed at one of Ye Chen’s vital points!

Clearly, he had the intention to kill!

He had great confidence in his flying knives, as they had reaped the lives of countless other experts.

However…

“You like playing with knives so much?”

Ye Chen’s lips curled into a smile. A second later, Ye Chen flung the throwing knife he had caught earlier back at the man.

“Break!”

“How is this possible…”

The smile on the man’s face disappeared.

Not only did his flying knife fail to kill this ant, but it was also easily destroyed by the other party. Startled by this, he quickly retreated and dodged the throwing knife.

At this moment, a shadow appeared in front of him.

“Not good!”

The man’s expression changed drastically, and he subconsciously struck out with his palm.

“Your reaction speed is too poor.”

A cold voice rang out faintly. In an instant, five steel-like fingers grabbed his wrist…

Kacha!

With a sickening crack, it broke!

At the same time, Ye Chen’s other hand grabbed the other party’s neck, lifted him up, and then slammed him into the ground!

Bang!

The man’s body was in a sorry and miserable state. At this moment, the man’s eyes were filled with horror. He had not expected this young man to be so powerful!

He could not even put up a fight! It was completely one-sided!

Ye Chen placed one foot on the chest of the man and slowly took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket. With a shake of his hand, a cigarette popped out and he put it in his mouth, and a snap of his fingers ignited the cigarette.

The smoke lingered as he spoke coldly, “You have until I finish this cigarette to tell me everything you know about Ghost Prison, or you’ll die!”

To the man, Ye Chen’s voice sounded like the god of death’s, and that he was standing at the gates of hell.

His pupils shrank, and his body trembled as he said, “Sir… Don’t kill me… I just heard that the Ghost Prison would open in this area, so I came here to take a look ahead of time…”

Kacha! Krak!

Ye Chen exerted force and broke most of the man’s ribs!

“I don’t want to hear your lies. I just want the truth. You know, it’s not hard to tell if someone is lying if you listen to their heartbeat…”

The man’s pained expression turned frightened when he heard that.

He thought of something, and then said “Sir, I’ll tell you. I’ll tell you everything. It was Grandmaster Lin who asked me to guard this place. I’m supposed to report to him if there are any movements from the Ghost Prison. This is absolutely true. If I’m lying to you, I’ll be struck by lightning!”

Ye Chen narrowed his eyes and put out the cigarette in his hand.

Grandmaster Lin?

“Is the Grandmaster Lin you’re talking about Lin Juelong?”

The man shook his head fiercely.

“It’s not Lin Juelong. How could someone of my level come into contact with Lin Juelong? It’s another person from the Lin family in Capital City; probably one of his subordinates.”

Normally, this man would not dare to call Lin Juelong by his full name. However, he realized that the moment he mentioned Grandmaster Lin, a murderous intent flashed across this young man’s eyes. Therefore, he panicked.

“What else do you know about Ghost Prison?” Ye Chen asked.

The long-robed man’s head spun quickly. Suddenly, he thought of something and hurriedly said, “Sir, there’s one more thing. Lin Juelong’s subordinate once mentioned that the key to the Ghost Prison was in the hands of a woman. That’s why I asked a girl I saw there about it. 1 thought it was her, but 1 was clearly wrong…”

Ye Chen narrowed his eyes and asked again, “Let me ask you one more thing. Where is Lin Juelong now?”

The long-robed man’s expression turned uglier and uglier as he smiled bitterly. “Sir, the residences of those top families in the capital are extremely well-hidden. There are also formations concealing them. There’s no way a servant like me knows where the Lin family is.”

Ye Chen knew that the other party was not lying. Therefore, he nodded and headed outside.

When the man saw Ye Chen leave, he heaved a sigh of relief. Then, his gaze turned cold.

He knew very well that this young man was not only interested in Ghost Prison, but also in Lin Juelong.

If he told the Lin family about this, he might obtain some rewards. However, just as he was about to stumble to his feet and leave, a stone came flying his way…

His expression changed. He wanted to dodge, but realized that it was impossible!

Puchi!

It pierced his forehead, and then he collapsed to the ground in a pool of his own blood..
