"Escaped!"

The night wind howled.

Gu Shen landed in a small alley across from the South Bay Building, his face slightly pale as a result of the heavy consumption of mental power. However, with the practice of his Astonishing Breath Technique, his mental sea became more full, and the use of the Truth Ruler became more proficient.

This operation should be considered a narrow escape.

The first thing to do was to contact Chu Ling.

Gu Shen quickly left the alley and entered a convenience store, where he bought a pair of earphones and a pair of smart glasses.

As he left the store, the entire street was bustling with activity. Even from across the street, the commotion at the South Bay Building could be heard. It seemed that the recent freeze had attracted a lot of attention. Gu Shen did not linger and quickly retreated in the direction he came from.

"Now is not the time to celebrate... the situation is not looking good."

Chu Ling's voice came through the earphones. She was manipulating the surveillance of several streets around the South Bay Building and transmitting the footage to Gu Shen's glasses. Real-time updated dynamic maps of the street scenes appeared before his eyes. In these dynamic maps, there were blurry white dots, bold black dots, and most notably, prominently marked red dots. Several red dots were emerging in Gu Shen's surrounding environment at an extremely fast pace, indicating a potential blockade.

Gu Shen recognized these markings. The white dots were ordinary civilians, the black dots were security personnel from the South Bay Building, and the red dots... were Transcendents.

"Bad news, the Transcendents from the South Bay Building are mobilizing. They are currently blocking off several streets."

Chu Ling said, "The good news is that Chen Wu is still in the building."

As long as Chen Wu didn't come out, it would be fine.

Gu Shen breathed a sigh of relief, adjusted his hat, and walked quickly, against the crowd, back into the alley... The real-time updated dynamic map showed the appearance of seven Transcendents. This number was likely to continue increasing, but the blockade they were forming had not yet fully taken shape.

"Hey..."

A security guard noticed a suspicious figure.

Everyone was moving in the direction of the South Bay Building, except for him.

"South Tianyuan Street, South Tianyuan Street, there is a suspicious person."

The security guard reported the location over the communicator and then quickly followed, taking out his baton and following the figure directly into the alley. The next moment, a burst of electricity erupted in the alley.

"Crackle."

Gu Shen's expression was unchanged as he gently supported the security guard who had been shocked by the baton, placing him in the darkness of the alley.

He picked up the communicator and cleared his throat.

Recalling the voice of the security guard just now, the soft light of the Truth Ruler surrounded his throat. Gu Shen pressed the communication switch, and his voice became somewhat rough and hoarse, with a hint of seriousness.

"The suspect has left South Tianyuan Street and is heading towards Gaomu Street. Middle-aged male, red clothes, tall stature."

After saying this, he hung up the communicator.

The real-time dynamic map updated, and the black dots that were constantly appearing began to gather on both sides of Gaomu Street.

"The security guards and the security personnel have been attracted... but the Transcendents won't be led astray by this kind of false information... They should be carrying a seal and searching for the fluctuation of Transcendent aura nearby."

"Right..."

Gu Shen was accustomed to preparing for the worst in everything.

The red dots had increased to eleven, and his route had now become limited.

If it didn't work, he would have to attempt a forced breakthrough.

"Wait... Chen Wu has left the building!"

Chu Ling's voice became very serious. "It seems like he has sensed your presence... and is heading directly towards Tianyuan Street."

Gu Shen's pupils contracted.

"How is that possible?"

Once again, an event occurred that Gu Shen couldn't understand.

When he was on the nineteenth floor of the South Bay Building, Chen Wu did not pursue him, which meant that he had lost his trail. When he left the building, Chen Wu did not chase after him.

"How did he find out my information?"

Gu Shen had a premonition that it was likely related to the "woman" on the nineteenth floor.

"I saw a woman on the nineteenth floor..."

Gu Shen quickly recounted the incident of the severed connection, and after a moment of silence on Chu Ling's end, she responded.

Transcendent events are often inexplicable by common sense. The events on the nineteenth floor of the South Bay Building, with the current information, cannot be traced back to their source and can only be attributed to this category of inexplicable events.

Gu Shen took a deep breath and gritted his teeth. "What should I do if my location continues to be exposed?"

"Escape!"

Chu Ling's tone was decisive. "The farther you escape, the better. Use the fastest mode of transportation and escape to the safest place..."

The fastest mode of transportation.

Gu Shen narrowed his eyes and focused on a marked point on the real-time map.

How convenient.

"There is a heavy-duty motorcycle to the right of the exit. It requires electronic information verification to start, but I can help you with that. It will take about five seconds," Chu Ling said. "The only thing to note is that there is a Transcendent nearby, and there may be a confrontation. I'll send you the file—"

"Wu Yan, Deep Sea, third level, natural type..."

Gu Shen read through the file in three seconds, then turned and left the alley. He saw a young man not far away, with his back to him, seemingly searching for something.

Is he using a Transcendent seal to sense mental waves?

His fiery concealment should not be discovered.

The man's location corresponded to the red dot on the real-time map.

Wu Yan.

Gu Shen remained calm. He naturally sat on the heavy-duty motorcycle, hands on the handlebars, ready to twist the throttle and leave at any moment. All of his movements were seamless and natural. To anyone watching, he was the owner of this motorcycle.

It would only take five seconds.

The electronic verification information was completed, and he could start and leave.

Everything was flawless and perfect—

If the owner of this motorcycle wasn't Wu Yan.A man not far away, frowning as he searched for something, caught a glimpse from the corner of his eye of someone leaving the alley. In just a moment of distraction, that person had mounted his motorcycle, and the headlights even flickered on.

"Damn it..."

Wu Yan was taken aback, his mind momentarily short-circuiting.

How could there be someone so audacious and reckless, and how did this guy... manage to tamper with his electronic information verification?

Wait a second, at a time like this, why would someone show up here?

"Stop right there!"

Wu Yan bellowed angrily.

As he spoke, his hands were already wrapped in white flames, and he ran towards the direction where the headlights were shining.

"Buzz buzz buzz!"

He had been spotted.

But... why did this guy look so ferocious? What had he done to incur such wrath?

Gu Shen slightly furrowed his brow, puzzled, but at this moment, the electronic verification had already been bypassed.

He took a deep breath, twisted the throttle all the way, and the heavy motorcycle roared off into the night. This feeling was not unfamiliar to him; the last time, the motorcycle that Crow rode was even more ferocious, more menacing, and more imposing.

Man and machine, howling as they charged towards each other!
