Chapter 64: Chapter 64 The Target is Lan Cai

Li Xiaoyao clenched the rope and descended bit by bit. Approximately five minutes later, Li Xiaoyao finally reached the ground. He stood below the elevator shaft, while in front of him lay the crashed elevator.

Lan Cai dismounted from his back and, looking at his hands covered in blood, said, "You need to stop the bleeding immediately."

"Let's get out of here first," Li Xiaoyao was not the type to be fussy, and a minor wound like this really didn't mean much to him.

Li Xiaoyao walked up to the ground floor elevator doors and gripped the seam between them, pulling them apart with force. With a cracking sound, he managed to pry the elevator doors apart by sheer brute force.

Stepping out, Li Xiaoyao discovered that he was in an underground parking lot. He instantly understood that the very bottom of the elevator shaft would indeed lead to the parking lot.

Li Xiaoyao extended his hand to Lan Cai behind him and said, "Come on out."

Lan Cai quickly stepped forward and looked around, asking, "We're in the parking garage?"

"Mhm," Li Xiaoyao nodded. His consciousness had already covered the entire building, allowing him to clearly see that the three men were currently descending the fire stairs and had reached the seventh floor.

Li Xiaoyao said, "Let's go upstairs."

But Lan Cai grabbed him, "No, you need to go to the hospital."

"Now is not the time to go to the hospital. If we go to the hospital now, we might as well let those murderers escape," Li Xiaoyao looked at her and continued, "Do you really want to see those bad guys get away with their crimes?"

Lan Cai hesitated, glancing at Li Xiaoyao's bloodied hands and then frowning in a conflicted manner as if weighing what was more important, capturing the criminals or Li Xiaoyao's injuries.

Li Xiaoyao, however, had no time to waste with her. He simply picked up Lan Cai and put her on his back. Caught off guard, Lan Cai gasped in surprise.

"I can walk by myself," Lan Cai struggled, attempting to get down.

Li Xiaoyao ignored her and carried her swiftly towards the stairs.

Li Xiaoyao's physical condition was exceptionally strong; carrying someone didn't slow him down. Within seconds, he was already on the first floor.

The security guards on duty today were Mosquito and Xiao Quan. They were shocked to see Li Xiaoyao, disheveled, carrying Director Lan out of the fire escape.

The two quickly approached and asked, "Boss, what happened?"

Li Xiaoyao put Lan Cai down and told them, "You two protect Director Lan, I'm going to catch some small-time crooks."

Before either could ask anything, Li Xiaoyao had already turned and sprinted towards the fire stairs.

Lan Cai knew that anything she said now would be futile, but she was still worried about Li Xiaoyao's safety.

Lan Cai told Mosquito and Xiao Quan, "Call the police!"

…

Li Xiaoyao's speed was incredibly fast; each time his feet kicked off the ground, he shot up five or six steps like an arrow released from a bow.

In just a few breaths, Li Xiaoyao had reached the third floor.

Through his expanded consciousness, he could clearly see that the three men were leisurely walking down, now on the fourth floor.

A cold, murderous intent covered Li Xiaoyao's face. Whoever they were, since they wanted to kill him, he couldn't let them go.

Li Xiaoyao was never one to be easily bullied. Anyone who wished to bully him had to be prepared for his retaliation.

The three men, laughing and talking, had no idea of the rapidly approaching danger.

As they reached the fourth floor, they suddenly saw a man in disheveled clothes standing at the staircase entrance, looking at them with a cold and indifferent gaze.

The three men were momentarily startled before one of them eyed Li Xiaoyao and said, "Good dogs don't stand in the way, kid, get lost, and don't block my path."

Another muttered quietly, "Why does this guy look so familiar?"

Li Xiaoyao stared at the three men coldly, his voice even colder, "Was it Long Feiyang who sent you?"

The trio was taken aback, instinctively responding, "Long Feiyang? Who is Long Feiyang?"

Li Xiaoyao was somewhat surprised, then furrowed his brows. So it wasn't Long Feiyang who sent them? Who could it be?

Plus, judging by the trio's expressions, they did not seem to recognize him.

If the Long Family had sent people to deal with him, they would have definitely investigated him thoroughly beforehand. There would be no absurd circumstance of them not recognizing him.

Thus, it appeared that these three men were not sent by the Long Family but by someone else after Lan Cai.

As this thought passed through Li Xiaoyao's mind, a flash of murderous intent glinted in his eyes, "Tell me, who sent you to kill Lan Cai?"

When Li Xiaoyao uttered those words, a hint of surprise flickered in the men's eyes, and the man who had previously thought Li Xiaoyao looked familiar suddenly widened his eyes, pointing at Li Xiaoyao and shouted loudly, "It's him, it's him! The man in the elevator with Lan Cai, he didn't die! How is it possible that you're still alive?"

The other two men, hearing his cry, were taken aback, then looked at Li Xiaoyao in surprise, knitting their brows tightly, "He actually escaped!"

"So, Lan Cai didn't die either?" The three men's eyes filled with murderous intent as they asked harshly.

Li Xiaoyao sneered. These men were excessively confident, seemingly thinking that their numerical advantage could put pressure on him.

"Since you're here to trouble Lan Cai, let her ask you herself." Having said that, Li Xiaoyao's figure dashed forward like lightning.

Seeing Li Xiaoyao about to make a move, the man at the front snorted coldly and lifted his foot to kick.

Li Xiaoyao quickly stepped forward, grabbed the man's ankle, and yanked down. The man lost his balance and tumbled down the stairs.

Easily dealing with one, Li Xiaoyao followed up with a heavy, ruthless cannon punch.

"Bang!" The man was slammed against the wall with that punch, rolled his eyes, and passed out cold.

The last man gaped, clearly frightened. He kept backing away, pleading, "Don't come any closer, don't come any closer."

Li Xiaoyao kicked him to the ground, stepping on his head, then fetched his phone and called Xiao Quan.

Li Xiaoyao asked directly, "Did you call the police?"

"Yeah, I've called the police."

Li Xiaoyao said, "Have Mosquito wait for the police downstairs. You bring Director Lan up here to the fourth-floor fire escape."

What Li Xiaoyao intended to do was to pry open these men's mouths before the police arrived, to let Lan Cai know exactly who wanted to kill her.

Xiao Quan quickly brought Lan Cai over, and Li Xiaoyao said, "You go back first. Call me when the police arrive."

Xiao Quan left, and Lan Cai looked at Li Xiaoyao and the three men lying on the ground with a puzzled face.

Li Xiaoyao kicked the man underfoot hard and said, "They aren't from the Long Family; they're here to kill you."

Lan Cai's pupils shrank, clearly startled, and she gasped, "To kill me?"

Li Xiaoyao nodded, stepping on the man's chest, and demanded, "Speak up, who sent you?"
