In a maple forest on the outskirts of the city, maple leaves rustled in the wind.
There are maple leaves falling everywhere, and the ground is bright red.
At this time, Chu Xiyao was hiding behind a big tree, using the thick trunk to cover her figure.
Two days ago, a batch of gold sent to Longting Base was intercepted!
That is not ordinary gold, but ten thousand pure gold that assists people with superpowers in their cultivation.
Based on clues at the scene, Chu Xiyao's team found out that the group of desperadoes who looted the gold seemed to be planning to collude with a factory to reshape the gold into other things and then transfer it out.
In that factory, there happened to be an informant of Chu Xiyao, exchanging information.
But unexpectedly, the informant had been controlled long ago, and she was lured into an ambush.
If she hadn't been with another teammate at the time, and the latter helped hold back some of the enemies, she might not have had a chance to escape.
At this time, outside the maple forest, several figures were chasing after him.
They were looking for Chu Xiyao everywhere.
Among these people, there is one who is at the second level of the God Refining Realm, one who is at the early E-level with superpowers, and the rest are all at the peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm or at the peak of the F-level.
It's not too strong to say the least, but it's more than enough to deal with Chu Xiyao.
Fortunately, their strength is not too strong. Although the guy at the second level of the God Refining Realm has divine consciousness, he is in the same realm as Chu Xiyao. When Chu Xiyao uses his divine consciousness to shield his aura, he has difficulty using it. It can be sensed by spiritual consciousness.
However, this maple forest is neither too small nor too big to be beaten. As long as Chu Xiyao makes any move, she will definitely be discovered.
And if you stay where you are and don't move, they will find you sooner or later.
Chu Xiyao wanted to call her team for support.
But her satellite phone was lost in the previous battle.
It was not in her hands at this time.
During the operation, she did not bring her personal phone with her.
So at this moment, she is in a helpless situation.
"what to do?"
Chu Xiyao didn't expect that this informant would betray her.
Because it turned out that this informant was someone she had rescued in a certain operation.
At that time, the other party was grateful to Chu Xiyao and would repay her no matter what.
And it just so happened that that person turned out to be an employee of that factory, so Chu Xiyao asked him to be an informant to help her collect intelligence and secretly observe the factory.
After all, the workers who are already there are better suited to gathering intelligence.
Today she received a contact from this person, saying that she had discovered a group of strange people in the factory, who were suspected to be practitioners.
And privately purchased a large amount of materials with the leaders of the factory.
The specific contents of the supplies were originally kept secret.
But he said that he accidentally discovered parts made of gold in the warehouse of the factory!
The informant said that there was no gold at all in the parts and materials produced by their factory.
Obviously, this batch of parts was rebuilt by this factory using the stolen gold in order to cover up others' eyes.
At that time, Chu Xiyao decided to meet and discuss in detail.
The factory has a holiday once every half month. On weekdays, the informant is in the employee dormitory, and there are many people and distractions.
There are many things that simply cannot be explained over the phone.
Moreover, Chu Xiyao needed to verify it in person.
It was impossible for Long Ting to take action rashly just because of a piece of information from an informant.
Verifying intelligence is also part of Chu Xiyao's job.
However, during the verification process, something unexpected happened!
She was ambushed by the other party!
In most cases, there is a single line of communication between the informant and the members of the intelligence team.
So as long as they deal with Chu Xiyao, Long Ting will have no clues to investigate.
When she was escaping, she met her teammates who had just completed the mission and were resting at home.
Fortunately, the teammate's home was near the factory. When he went out for morning training, he met the fleeing Chu Xiyao and helped her attract the attention of some enemies, which gave her a chance to escape.
However, even so, there were still a few people clinging to their backs.
Chu Xiyao had no way to get rid of the opponent, and she was no match for him in a fight.
Salsa!
At this time, the sound of maple leaves being trampled was heard not far away.
There was a desperado who had arrived not far behind Chu Xiyao.
Very close!
Under the morning sun, this person's shadow even extended to Chu Xiyao's feet!
The other party slowly approached, seeming to be wary of the surrounding situation and worried about being surprised.
During their previous pursuit, they found that the woman would always avoid crowded places and flee toward sparsely populated areas.
It seems that they are worried that their fighting will endanger ordinary people.
Indeed, these desperadoes are different from large organizations like the Underworld and Hades.
Most ordinary small organizations feel very low-key and insignificant on weekdays.
But precisely because the organization is small, the living space is even more difficult!
If they want to gain benefits, they have to work harder!
Keeping their heads in their belts at all times, they face the pursuit of Long Ting, the exclusion of large outlaw organizations, and the eager eyes of other small organizations.
When cornered, they really dare to run into the streets and start killing people.
But Yinsi and Hades are different.
Their size is there, although they are also desperadoes, their strength is more powerful.
But they will not easily do anything to ordinary people openly.
Previously in Rongcheng, the Yin Division forcibly robbed the talented students who participated in the competition, as well as many other people who were secretly robbed and missing. They were violently eliminated by the Longting base in the entire Fu Province.
It was a very serious blow.
And if they dare to openly threaten the people, Longting's reaction will probably be even more intense.
Maybe, even some of the strong men guarding the borders will free up their hands to clean up the country!
In that case, it would be really troublesome.
However, it was precisely because of Chu Xiyao's choice that she reached the dead end at this time.
The only maple forest nearby has complex terrain. Beyond this forest, there is a suburban route with a flat plain and nowhere to hide!
So, that woman must be here.
The desperado walked slowly past a maple tree, his eyes sharply scanning the surrounding area.
Sudden!
He seemed to notice something and turned around suddenly.
But at this moment, his neck went numb and he was knocked unconscious by Chu Xiyao's knife.
Chu Xiyao covered the guy's mouth, supported his body, and gently placed him on the ground to avoid making too obvious noise and attracting the attention of other people.
But on the other side, the second-level desperado who had been shrouding the surroundings with his spiritual consciousness made a pause, then turned around and looked coldly at the direction of the knocked-out desperado.
And Chu Xiyao is also there!
"Come out!"
At this time, the man walked forward with a sneer, staring at the position of a maple tree.
Although he never sensed Chu Xiyao's aura.
But he always paid attention to the aura of his companions.
At that moment, he found that one of his companions had an enhanced aura, and it seemed that he was about to take action, but it disappeared in the next moment.
Apparently, he was knocked unconscious.
And according to the direction detected by the spiritual consciousness, everything is very clear.
Chu Xiyao's face was gloomy.
She didn't expect that even though she had been so careful, she was still exposed!
