Bait and Besiege!
The moment Chen Ling saw these two lines of words, he froze.
At the same time, Yang Xiao and Lu Xun saw this scene, and also spoke in confusion:
"Ghost-Mock World-Ending... what is ghost mock?"
"It sounds like some kind of disastrous monster has appeared, and even heaven and earth must jointly execute it?" Lu Xun frowned slightly. "But what does this have to do with us?"
Chen Ling's eyes narrowed slightly. His expression was very calm, but in his heart, stormy waves had already surged.
Chen Ling absolutely didn't expect that in this era, there was actually someone who could spy on the World-Ending within his body from across space, and even pointed out the two words "ghost mock"... Most crucially, it was the four words "Era of Chaotic Reversal".
Could it be, he even discovered the Timeline Save File? Or did these four words have some other meaning?
Of course, the most easily understandable four words were "heaven and earth jointly execute"... But Chen Ling was already immune to this. No matter what era it was, he seemed to always become a target of public criticism.
"The first one was Huangcheng Temple. The second one... said to let me open it when encountering danger. As a result, after I opened it on the plane just now, the four characters 'Certain Death' were written on it..."
"Did you take the initiative to seek out this grandmaster, or did he seek you out?"
"It was me, I sent someone to invite the grandmaster. The original intention was just to ask him to calculate Lu Xun's location... As a result, the grandmaster said this matter was somewhat strange, saying he needed to calculate two more steps. So he gave three Silk Pouches in one breath. But after throwing out the last Silk Pouch, he stopped speaking."
Chen Ling's frown grew tighter and tighter.
Looking at it this way, this person from the Path of Divination didn't actively discover him, but unintentionally discovered him while calculating Lu Xun's future... That is to say, at that time he already knew "ghost mock descending upon the world"?
"Something's wrong..." Chen Ling suddenly spoke.
"What?"
As if Chen Ling realized something, his gaze fiercely looked around... His body instantly tensed up, and an ominous premonition surged into his heart!
"Not good! Leave here quickly!!"
Chen Ling didn't have time to ask more either. He directly shot Director Zheng in the head, and then quickly fled into the distance!
Yang Xiao and Lu Xun exchanged a glance, and immediately followed up as well.
The three squeezed into the car. Chen Ling forcefully stepped on the gas pedal. A roar exploded in the Wilderness...
And almost at the same time, at the other end of the horizon, densely packed black vehicles drove straight towards here!
Looking out, over forty vehicles almost blockaded the entire west. From afar, it looked like an continuously tightening cordon; Not only that, behind them, another swarm of armed helicopters slowly rose from below the horizon.
Seeing this scene, Yang Xiao's face was full of shock:
"This... these are all here to capture Old Lu?"
"No." Chen Ling stared closely at the black clouds and black waves covering over from the distance, speaking in a deep voice, "They should be coming for me..."
From just now, Chen Ling had realized something was wrong.
If the prophecy of ghost mock descending upon the world was sensed by that grandmaster, it meant that before Director Zheng captured Lu Xun, he already knew of his existence. During these tens of minutes, he naturally couldn't have done nothing, and even specially sent over a bloody and ferocious Silk Pouch... After all, no matter how one looked at those sixteen characters, they didn't seem to harbor goodwill towards him.
If he really wanted "heaven and earth jointly execute", it was absolutely impossible for him to let go of this opportunity. Perhaps Director Zheng and the others were just bait to hold him back. The true killing move prepared for him was still hidden and brewing!
Chen Ling's brain operated rapidly. He fiercely turned the steering wheel to make a rapid U-turn in the Wilderness, and then sped away towards the east!

The red sports car was like a cheetah in the wilderness, speeding wildly alone; And behind the cheetah, a terrifying and deadly wolf pack was closing in on the three!
"Director Chen, what exactly is going on?" The strong push back feeling and the speeding velocity made Lu Xun's heartbeat slightly accelerate. He asked as calmly as possible.
"I can't explain it clearly in a short time."
While driving, Chen Ling opened his flip phone. The signal instantly connected to the communication network behind. After a brief rustle, voices sounded consecutively.
"Wolf Hunter 3 has locked onto the target, repeat, Wolf Hunter 3 has locked onto the target."
"Received, the encirclement is tightening."
"Observed two other people acting together with the target, suspected to be coerced hostages..."
"Are their identities confirmed?"
"Confirming... Confirmed, one is Dr. Lu Xun of Astrophysics, the other is Dr. Yang Xiao of Magnetic Fields, both are members of the Red Star Exploration Team."
"There are two scientific scholars in the car... do we still open fire?"
"Grandmaster Huang only calculated the identity of that thing, and it depleted thirty years of his lifespan, he is still being resuscitated right now... The Bureau Chief has already given the order, to strangle 'ghost mock' at all costs." The voice on the other end of the Walkie-talkie paused for a moment,
"Dr. Lu and Dr. Yang are indeed pillars of the nation, and also have research value... But the priority of strangling 'ghost mock' is still above the two of them."
"Understood, all units prepare to open fire."
The next moment, the swarm of armed helicopters howling past in the sky above the earth simultaneously locked onto that red lightning speeding wildly in the Wilderness!
Amidst sharp sounds, over ten long arcs of fire cut through the night sky, swarming and shooting towards the red sports car!
"Director Chen?! They..." Yang Xiao wanted to say something in shock, but before he could speak, Chen Ling's voice interrupted him.
"Hold tight!"
Boom—!!!
Electric light wandered within the vehicle once again. The engine's performance was pushed to the limit by Chen Ling. A roar like a giant beast bellowing sounded beside the ears of the three, and the sports car's speed climbed even higher!
The red needle madly rotated on the dial, even breaking through the limit of the scale. The three instantly felt as if they were floating off the surface of the earth. The scenery outside the window was madly retreating!
At the same time,
Chen Ling held the gun in one hand and reached it out the window!
A massive Domain rapidly expanded with the sports car as the center!
"Tribunal." Chen Ling slowly spat out three words, and pulled the trigger towards the sky.
Amidst bursts of silent light sounds, bullets of Deconstruction shot out from the sports car, then drew arcs in the air, swarming and crashing towards the numerous missiles in the sky!
Boom boom boom boom—!!
Continuous roars sounded. Balls of scorching blazing suns bloomed in the air, illuminating the night sky as bright as day!
The flaming embers from the missile explosions swept across the earth like raindrops, igniting the road ahead of the red sports car. Chen Ling's face flickered under the reflection of the flames...
"This is troublesome..."
Seeing the missiles all destroyed, Yang Xiao's hanging heart finally relaxed a little. Before he could say anything else, a melodious cello sound suddenly rang out beside the ears of the three!
