"Wait for a sound!" Tai Shan said.
Ye Yuqiao hummed coldly, with an expressionless face, "There's nothing to wait for!"
Having said that, she shouted loudly and used the Nether King's Power to solidify the air around her.
Unfortunately, she was just a little bit short, and Tai Shan still managed to escape to the rooftop of a nearby tall building.
However, when Tai Shan looked back at the original location, Ye Yuqiao had also disappeared. He then moved to the sky a hundred meters away, frantically searching for Ye Yuqiao's figure.
At this moment, Ye Yuqiao, transformed into a shadow, was hiding in a dark spot observing Tai Shan, waiting for an opportunity to deliver a fatal blow.
Subsequently, worried about Ye Yuqiao appearing from around him at any moment, Tai Shan kept instantly changing his position, sometimes far kilometers away, sometimes appearing on the ground, and sometimes back near the rooftop.
Watching Tai Shan's frantic behavior, Hua Shan laughed loudly and remarked, "Tai Shan, I never thought you'd be driven to such a desperate state by a girl today!"
Even though Hua Shan's face showed a relaxed and playful expression, his heart was tense. Like Ye Yuqiao, he was also looking for an opportunity to trap Tai Shan.
Suddenly, Tai Shan appeared behind Hua Shan.
"Space Barrier! Breakthrough Realm, Nine Secret Commands Strengthening!" Hua Shan immediately summoned a barrier around himself, attempting to trap both himself and Tai Shan inside it.
Hearing the name of this technique, Ye Yuqiao felt curious, discovering that it seemed all the unique abilities of the City of Yin and Time were related to space-time.
"Hua Shan, I didn't expect you to use a technique of the Breakthrough Realm!" Tai Shan sighed, "But what significance does this have for you? What can you do to me?"
"You're right, I indeed can't do much to you," Hua Shan said coldly, "but I believe that girl can."
"Impossible!" Tai Shan said with great certainty, then suddenly threw a punch at Hua Shan's back, "Hua Shan, do you forget something? My martial arts skills are not to be underestimated!"
"Uh!" Hua Shan cried out in pain, then crashed against the edge of the barrier he had cast and fell to the ground. His sunglasses also shattered. After taking off the broken sunglasses, Hua Shan took a deep breath and called out loudly, "Girl, if you don't show up now, I'm going to be beaten to death!"
Tai Shan hummed coldly, with a murderous look in his eyes, "I told you, she can't get in, no one in this world can. What you're doing is just seeking death!"
One step, two steps... Tai Shan slowly approached Hua Shan.
"Space Barrier, Breakthrough Realm, Nine Secret Commands Strengthening!" Tai Shan also performed the same technique as Hua Shan, fearing that Hua Shan might lift the barrier and slip away at this moment.
Hua Shan chuckled weakly and gasped, "Are you afraid that I will run away? I tell you, since I've cast this barrier, I never thought about running away."
"You still foolishly believe that girl will come in and save you at this time?" Tai Shan said with contempt.
However, just then, a purple crack appeared in the air in front of Hua Shan.
This crack was something Tai Shan found deeply memorable, and he was utterly shocked.
"Humph, humph, humph!" Hua Shan, lying on the ground, let out a mocking laugh, "Tai Shan, who is the foolish one now?"
Suddenly, the purple crack widened, and Ye Yuqiao jumped out from it.
"Why?" Tai Shan said in disbelief, his face trembling uncontrollably, "Who exactly are you, how can you even enter the barrier within the barrier."
Ye Yuqiao gave a cold laugh, her eyes icy, "Because in my dictionary, there is no such word as 'barrier'!"
With that, a stream of black Nether King's Power surged out from within Ye Yuqiao.
Seeing this, Tai Shan quickly executed a move, "Void Barrier, the realm beyond.."
"Dispel the barrier, the realm beyond!" Hua Shan promptly interrupted Tai Shan.
Although she did not fully understand the special abilities and moves of the two men from the City of Yin and Time, through the incantations they recited, Ye Yuqiao knew that Hua Shan was preventing Tai Shan from using his defensive maneuvers.
"Time Barrier, break."
"Time Release!"
Immediately, Tai Shan and Hua Shan were at it again, one after the other.
"Ah!" Tai Shan screamed as the Nether King's Power seized his throat, suddenly veins bulging on his neck, his face flushed and gasping for breath.
"Miss, impressive!" Hua Shan couldn't help but clap and cheer, then he stood up and walked over to Ye Yuqiao's side.
After glancing at Hua Shan from the corner of her eye, the previously expressionless Ye Yuqiao suddenly gasped in surprise, then turned her head to look at Hua Shan, her eyebrows deeply furrowed.
"Miss, what's the matter? Did you suddenly realize I'm a handsome uncle?"
Ye Yuqiao glared at Hua Shan, thinking to herself: That's right, this man named Hua Shan was the prototype for King Xin's constructed facial features. No wonder King Xin never sensed his presence; it turns out he comes from the mysterious City of Yin and Time.
Years ago, after arriving in the mortal world, Ye Yuqiao had spent eighteen years searching for Tai Shan, who carried a mysterious ghost infant and opened the Gate of the Nether King, to no avail.
After musing for a while, Ye Yuqiao turned her gaze to Tai Shan, about to interrogate him, when suddenly, a dazzling and intense blaze of firelight appeared in the north, illuminating the night sky, followed by the thunderous sound of an explosion, shaking the entire City H and the spatial-temporal Barrier over City H.
A smile suddenly crept onto the agonized face of Tai Shan.
"Could it be that you were waiting for this sound?" Hua Shan asked in surprise.
"That's... right!" Tai Shan croaked, his voice hoarse from the Nether King's Power constricting his throat, barely able to breathe.
Hua Shan quickly turned to Ye Yuqiao and whispered, "Miss, let's loosen the grip on him for now, he won't be able to escape later anyway."
Ye Yuqiao's face showed no expression and she uttered no words, but she still slightly retracted the Nether King's Power.
After catching a few breaths, Tai Shan stated indifferently, "Below the surface, hundreds of meters under the northern district of City H, there is an ancient underground temple sealed and buried by our ancestors. In that temple lies the thing that Tai Shan and Qin Shang want to find! That light just now must have been a bomb exploding among those mutated wolves. There were easily hundreds of them! You should know how corrosive the blood of those wolves can be."
"So you mean to say, you deliberately lured those mutated wolves to gather above the underground temple, tempting the military to bomb them, so that their blood would all at once gush out and erode the land?" Hua Shan mused.
"Exactly!" Tai Shan nodded proudly.
"But don't forget, that underground temple is protected by a barrier!" Hua Shan said, "Once you are dead, who will be able to disarm it?"
"What if I don't die?"
"Roar!" Nearby, Qin Shang, who was locked in a fierce battle with Chen Hao, once again raged his blood, and his body began to swell and mutate..
