Chapter 734: 669

So, Ye Tian could not possibly have made a mistake in recognizing him, but how could this person be alive? Could it be, aside from himself, someone else also survived in this world!

This piece of news made Ye Tian very excited. Whether it was true or not, the person was currently at a disadvantage, Ye Tian couldn’t allow him to get hurt.

Ye Tian deliberately used the same moves as the other person, wanting to show that he had no hostility towards him, yet that person looked at Ye Tian with very cold eyes.

The two of them joined forces and quickly repelled the opponents. That person didn’t even say thanks before preparing to leave. How could Ye Tian let someone he finally found slip away?

Ye Tian grabbed the person, “Hey, you. I’ve gone to such lengths to help you, how can you not even say thank you?!”

“I didn’t ask for your help!” Only then did Ye Tian realize that the man’s legs were not very agile; it seemed he was disabled in one leg.

Dragon Team would never recruit such a member; could it be he was injured in that accident?

“Are you from Dragon Team?” Ye Tian probed.

Under the dim light, Ye Tian watched the man’s pupils contract, then quickly return to normal.

“What Dragon Team? I don’t know!” The man shook off Ye Tian’s hand and staggered away.

Ye Tian didn’t care about this and just followed the man closely. Wherever he went, Ye Tian followed. The man knew Ye Tian was tailing him, but he did not react and allowed Ye Tian to keep up.

And so, Ye Tian, as if possessed by a ghost, followed the man around the area for a long time, and they ended up back where they had met.

“Why do you keep following me?” the man said impatiently.

“You’ve known all along, but you still let me follow you for so long. Doesn’t that mean you’re curious about me too, right?” Ye Tian smiled.

“You think too much. I’m not at all curious about you, and as for that Dragon Team you mentioned, I know nothing about it.”

“Then how do you know our combat moves?”

“Learned it from someone.”

“From whom? I know everyone from Dragon Team. Who did you learn from?” Ye Tian pressed on.

“You really are annoying, get lost!”

“I know you seem aimless on your way, but you lingered for a few seconds at the entrance of a residential area. Although it was just a few seconds, and you could say it was nothing, I felt that there’s someone you care about living there.”

Ye Tian was taking a gamble. Actually, the man had not stopped, not to mention a few seconds. He had only given the residential area a couple more glances, just two glances.

Even if he was like Ye Tian, a person who had been specially trained by Dragon Team, he would not show any special reaction when encountering someone he cared about. But even such a minute difference allowed Ye Tian to notice.

“Who are you really? Who sent you?” The man posed ready to attack at any moment.

“No one sent me! I am Ye Tian from team one. Aren’t you from team two?” Ye Tian made up his mind in a do-or-die manner; he did not dare to reveal his real identity out of fear that it might bring harm to him.

If this person truly was his teammate, then it was like finding a treasure for Ye Tian. If not, Ye Tian would be prepared to kill him. He knew the unique skills of Dragon Team and yet was not a member; keeping him around would only be trouble.

“You are Ye Tian?” The man examined Ye Tian carefully, asking disbelievingly.

“Yes, what’s there to fake about being Ye Tian? I’m not any famous person,” said Ye Tian, laughing self-deprecatingly.

“To tell the truth, I had just joined Dragon Team, and then the accident happened. I never had the chance to meet Ye Tian, but the senior members said that he was a formidable person.”

“Is that so? Someone has praised me like that? It’s just a pity I couldn’t save my teammates, and they all died tragically.” Each time he thought about this, Ye Tian felt as if his heart was being severely stabbed several times, with barbed knives tearing through flesh and blood non-stop.

“I also find it odd, since everyone says you care so much for your teammates, why was it that you were the only one unharmed, perfectly standing here?” Doubt shone in the man’s eyes.

“You doubt me?” Ye Tian swept the man’s doubtful gaze repeatedly over himself.

“Of course, I doubt you. Our Dragon Team operates with such caution and care. Before we set out, no one else would know our objective, but that time, everyone else died. I had just joined and was on the periphery, and I still got hurt, yet you were unscathed! Do you think anyone would believe this if it were spoken aloud?”

The man’s expression was awkward, not sure whether to cry or laugh. He was selected by an organization only rumored, yet before he could even revel in the joy, he had lost his right leg forever.

He thought that by coming back alive, even if the state wouldn’t reassign him, they would still take good care of him. But to his surprise, his life was bought with 800,000. It was not because his family was greedy for money, but because his mother’s health truly could not deteriorate any further.

When he first returned home, he received no welcome from his family but was instead attacked right at the door, every strike deadly, clearly not intending to let him live on.

For the first time, he began to doubt whether coming back alive was a mistake. He barely escaped, only to discover later that he and Dragon Team had both vanished, and his teammates had been bribed to keep quiet. It all seemed like a dream, only he was awake, or was he the only one still dreaming?
