The river exploded with a thunderous roar.
Two figures collided and then dispersed.
Almost no one saw clearly what had happened... It was as if a thunderbolt had exploded overhead, and the burning gasoline roared like a bomb, scattering flames like fleeting fireworks. The intense light scattered, phosphorescent and radiant, illuminating the river as bright as day.
Only Gu Shen knew what had just happened.
Because only he had truly felt the intense impact that had been just behind him... Chen Wu's whip kick had been aimed at him!
This was a force that he absolutely could not withstand.
Gu Shen's scalp tingled, and he could only do his best to press his body against the car's back, minimizing the impact on himself as much as possible, while also using the force of the violent push to accelerate his descent into the river.
"Plunk!"
The intense oil fire fell in all directions.
The light disappeared in an instant...
Song Ci and Chen Wu clashed with a whip kick, then both retreated and landed in two separate places on the riverbank, a hundred meters apart.
The atmosphere was calm, with both of them standing with their hands behind their backs, but their leg muscles were slightly trembling.
On the other side, the curly-haired young man, Chen Wu, looked normal due to his thick clothing... In reality, his breathing was somewhat erratic.
The group of people led by Qi Lu immediately arrived behind Chen Wu, and they no longer had the same intentions as before.
The Raven was indeed very strong.
But at the moment... their strongest force had arrived at the riverbank.
This battle was far from over.
"Are you okay?"
The Raven glanced back slightly, and there was a somewhat disheveled figure in the river, barely maintaining balance on a thin layer of ice.
"Wading in the water up to my knees..."
Gu Shen propped himself up on the thin ice, looking up at Song Ci standing on the river, and sighed softly, "I thought it was just a saying... How did you do it?"
"It's nothing. With the 'Domain,' any transcendent can do it." The Raven spoke lightly, "How are you? Are you injured?"
Gu Shen shook his head with a wry smile.
"It's nothing serious... Just feeling a bit suffocated."
The impact just now was like a bomb exploding from his back.
This sense of impact, compared to the time when the Longevity Foundation disciple detonated a large amount of trinitrotoluene in Lipu Street, was even more intense.
The people on the river gradually formed two opposing groups.
The group of transcendent led by Qi Lu reorganized themselves, looking like they had gained new confidence.
The Raven's gaze was fixed on Chen Wu in the front, and a smile slowly appeared on his face.
"Chen Wu looks really ugly... To make him so angry and chase you here, it means you must have succeeded." Song Ci sighed sincerely, "It's really incredible. You, a transcendent without a domain, can actually run so far from him? Mr. Cui and his wife didn't misjudge you. You are truly a rare genius."
Gu Shen had always been indifferent to such praise, and he simply raised his middle finger to the calm and composed Raven.
In fact, the operation to infiltrate the South Bay Building tonight was extremely dangerous, but... it was already over.
"You guessed right. There is a closed-circuit mainframe in the South Bay Building, and I took the data from the mainframe. They probably don't know about it yet..." Gu Shen whispered, "Chen Wu chased me because when I infiltrated the South Bay Building, I triggered an alarm. This guy has a keen sense of smell and chased me all the way here despite the lack of clues."
"Without any clues, he was able to catch up to you because he requested Deep Sea's intervention..." The Raven looked at Gu Shen meaningfully.
He knew very well that infiltrating the South Bay Building was an extremely difficult task, but for some reason, he had an inexplicable trust in Gu Shen, and was confident that no matter how difficult the task, Gu Shen could handle it.
The Raven's intuition was very accurate.
"In fact, the matter of the closed-circuit mainframe in the South Bay Building was just a guess... It is an unconfirmed and unverifiable speculation, although I don't know how you did it." Song Ci put aside the previous middle finger incident and raised a thumbs-up to Gu Shen, who was lying on the ice, "I just want to say two words. Impressive."
"What are you going to do about this mess?"
Gu Shen lay on the ice without getting up. Since he crashed through the guardrail, the Ruler's Measure had been activated again, steaming with hot mist, shrouding his face. So far, no one had seen his true appearance.
He was somewhat wary of the curly-haired young man in the distance, who didn't look like the pampered son of a congressman at all, but more like a mad dog.
"You just need to escape. I'll stop them here." The Raven spoke softly, "I've been wanting to fight Chen Wu for a long time, and now I finally have the chance... Thank you."
"What about those guys?" Gu Shen narrowed his eyes and shifted his gaze to Qi Lu's group of people.
"They? Just a bunch of nobodies."
Song Ci sneered.
After expressing his disdain, the Raven earnestly instructed Gu Shen, "Of course, nobodies are in my opinion. Be careful when you run away. That guy Qi Lu has a purple silver bullet in his hand. If you get hit... you might die."
"You leave the riverbank and go find Mrs. Cui, or Mr. Cui, or anyone else. Since the data from the closed-circuit mainframe has been taken out, retrieve Shi Li's introducer information, and tonight's battle will be a victory."
"Although the riverbank seems quiet now, in reality, there are many eyes watching here.""Tonight... they won't be able to sleep," Song Ci said calmly. "Soon, people will start coming, more and more of them. Once the crowd grows, the situation will become very complicated... By then, assigning blame will also become a complex matter."
The Crow had promised the lady not to provoke trouble on his own initiative.
And indeed, he had kept his word.
His intervention beneath the Flower Banner was because the other party had indeed broken the rules, and at the riverside meeting, the Crow had also kept his promise of "release upon arrival." If one were to thoroughly investigate the source of the conflict, it was actually Chen San's side that fired the first shot and stirred up trouble.
"So... just do as I said."
He spoke softly, slowly turning his body to stand in front of Gu Shen.
"Run."
Gu Shen lifted his head.
He noticed that the Crow's expression was relaxed, as if everything was under control.
But... was it really so?
Song Ci's palm was trembling slightly, not much, but Gu Shen noticed it.
This guy was nervous...
If tonight's dispute were to be traced back, it could go back to the recent incident where he had injured Chen Jingtan. If the turmoil unfolded as Song Ci predicted, growing bigger and bigger, would Chen San be able to settle things when he arrived?
"Run..."
Gu Shen murmured softly.

A myriad of thoughts converged.
Then, shaking his head, he said, "I won't run. I will stay here and fight alongside you."
