CHAPTER 1093: CHAPTER 1093: PULLING OUT ALL THE STOPS

In the blink of an eye, he’d already arrived at the Chu Corporation. Although there were as many as four teams patrolling around, with almost no time gaps, covering every inch of the place.

This person, however, moved like a shadow, never pausing, catching a subtle moment during the team exchanges to easily slip through.

When he appeared again, he was already inside the Chu Corporation.

"He’s appeared!"

At that moment, the Heavenly Eye atop the building not far away suddenly exclaimed in surprise as a red dot lit up on the tracker.

The exclamation from Heavenly Eye suddenly focused Ye Chenfeng’s attention, and his gaze locked onto the tracker screen.

"I’ve been observing around the Chu Corporation with binoculars but didn’t spot him. Instead, he managed to get inside. Quite something." Ye Chenfeng remarked.

If it weren’t for the Heavenly Eye, perhaps Sikong Zhairiyue would have slipped away a second time.

Heavenly Eye chuckled and said, "Under the Heavenly Eye, nothing can be hidden. Divine King, do you want to act now?"

Ye Chenfeng shook his head, saying, "No, acting now would just alert him. I want to strike when he’s leaving with the goods. His guard will surely be down by then."

"Alright, I’ll keep watching." Heavenly Eye replied.

...

Chu Qingxue had just gotten off work tonight when she received a call from Ye Mingtian asking her out to dinner.

Chu Qingxue didn’t hesitate to agree, knowing of course it was more than just about dinner.

"Qingxue, you look great tonight!" Ye Mingtian said with a smile.

Chu Qingxue smiled softly, "Senior Ye, you look positively radiant."

"Qingxue, please have a seat. The reason I called you here tonight is, first, to treat you to dinner, and second, to let you watch a grand fireworks display." Ye Mingtian explained directly.

Chu Qingxue was initially stunned but then seemed to understand something.

"Are you looking forward to this fireworks display?" Chu Qingxue asked.

Ye Mingtian nodded, exuding powerful confidence, "Yes, I’m very much looking forward to it. But I believe this fireworks display will be spectacular; you’ll surely enjoy it, Qingxue."

"Alright, let’s wait and see!" Chu Qingxue smiled as well, her smile carrying a profound, unpredictable meaning.

"Hmm?"

Opposite her, a trace of confusion flickered in Ye Mingtian’s eyes, but his brow soon relaxed.

"With your company, Qingxue, it truly is a marvelous night." Ye Mingtian laughed brilliantly.

...

Meanwhile, after Sikong Zhairiyue appeared inside the Chu Corporation, he navigated as if it were his own kitchen, familiar and at ease, floor by floor.

Interestingly, even though Sikong Zhairiyue took the elevator, nobody noticed him either.

He strutted around the Chu Corporation with such brazenness, continually giving himself more challenges, yet no one noticed him.

Coming out of the elevator, Sikong Zhairiyue sighed with frustration, holding his forehead in disbelief and lamenting, "Damn, how can they not notice even this? Seems I’m being too cautious. I’ll have to up the difficulty. Self-sufficiency it is!"

If others saw this scene, they would probably be infuriated to no end.

"Ah! Invincible is really, really lonely."

With that, Sikong Zhairiyue pulled out a device resembling a cellphone, a rare kind not often seen.

He tinkered with the device briefly, and immediately it emitted a piercing beep alarm.

The Chu Corporation, almost void of people, resonated with alarms, magnified several times over to the point where it could be heard clearly from the first to the highest floor.

"Someone’s entered..."

Instantly, chaos erupted among the security within the Chu Corporation.

Aside from the security guards outside sealing the exits, the building’s guards swarmed towards the sound source, making the Chu Corporation suddenly lively.

"Everyone on this floor holds their positions; guard it for me. All personnel from other floors, attack." Xi Dazhuang commanded, his eyes gleaming with energy and his whole demeanor invigorated.

From afar, Ye Chenfeng and Heavenly Eye could also see the turmoil within the Chu Corporation.

Heavenly Eye remarked in shock, "My God, this is outrageous. I’ve seen arrogance, but never on this level. He exposed himself deliberately, as if daring people to find him."

"Sikong Zhairiyue was always like this back in the day. Even when faced with the Dragon Knight Forbidden Army full of experts, someone used a secret technique to lock onto him, but eventually, the technique failed, and he escaped." Ye Chenfeng narrated.

"That is truly terrifying." Heavenly Eye commented, then switched topics, "But don’t worry, Divine King, in my hands, there’s no way he’ll escape, even if he dies."

"Indeed, tonight, the undefeated legend of the world’s top thief will be shattered." Ye Chenfeng’s eyebrows lifted, his eyes gleaming coldly.

"Eh? His speed’s increased, incredibly fast, he’s vanished from my tracking capture device." Heavenly Eye suddenly exclaimed in surprise.

Ye Chenfeng’s heart pounded, anxiously asking, "How fast?"

"At least twice the speed you reached when pursuing Qianmian. Back then, you all moved fast enough to disappear from my surveillance; not to mention twice your speed." Heavenly Eye chuckled.

Ye Chenfeng glanced at his laptop screen, watching lines of numbers and code rapidly scrolling.

He instantly understood, Heavenly Eye was speaking with actual data, not just estimating.

"Then what to do now? He’s already disappeared from your surveillance." Ye Chenfeng asked, still puzzled despite Heavenly Eye’s relaxed demeanor.

Heavenly Eye gave a mischievous smile, "As fast as he can go, my tracking can match it. My equipment’s been upgraded, and I’ve used all my resources for this showdown."

"Snap crackle..."

With that, Heavenly Eye resumed his operation.

A moment later, the red dot reappeared on the tracker, and Heavenly Eye smiled, "Divine King, I’ve completely locked him this time. Get ready to act!"

"Great, no problem." Ye Chenfeng was waiting exactly for this moment.

"Divine King, also, my software has generated a series of routes. Confirm which exact route Sikong Zhairiyue will take." Heavenly Eye added.

"Got it!"

Ye Chenfeng analyzed carefully, finally revealing a small smile.

...

Inside the Chu Corporation, almost half of the security converged like a swarm on the floor where the sound had originated.

"Goodbye everyone!"

Sikong Zhairiyue leisurely waited for dozens of guards to gather before making his move.
