Chapter 862: Heavenly List Elder (1)
Putting on the uniform of the enemy guard, Ling Chen tried his best to cover his face to avoid being recognized by the people of the God Organization. There was no choice, he was quite the 'celebrity' in the God Organization, probably not many who didn't know him.
With a guard's uniform, Ling Chen's movements became much more convenient, at least he could move around the warehouse openly. Others noticed his presence, just glanced casually, not taking much time for a closer look. After wandering in the warehouse for a while, Ling Chen found a small, separate room.
Two people were guarding outside the small room, although he couldn't get close, Ling Chen could still hear the voices coming from inside, as if two or three people were talking, but it was not very clear due to the distance.
Having just wandered around the warehouse area and found no sign of Tong Ye's grandfather's whereabouts, he figured he was likely confined inside that room.
At that moment, Ling Chen found a concealed place and quietly observed. After about five minutes, the door to the small room was pushed open from the inside. Immediately, an old man walked out from within.
Seeing the person, Ling Chen reflexively shrunk back a little.
Ji Gang!
It really was that guy.
Since Ji Gang came out of the small room, ten to one, Tong Ye's grandfather was inside. Watching as Ji Gang left, Ling Chen was about to head towards the small room. With Ji Gang gone, it was the best opportunity to make a move. After a few steps, Ling Chen's steps halted slightly, a flash of hesitation flickered in his bright pupils.
After two or three seconds, Ling Chen, who was originally heading towards the small room, suddenly chose to give up the action, retreating back to his original position.
Ling Chen just realized that even if he rescued Tong Ye's grandfather, it would be of no use. As long as Tong Ye was still in the hands of the God Organization, her grandfather would be threatened. Therefore, before rescuing Tong Ye's grandfather, he must rescue Tong Ye first.
However, Ling Chen had searched the warehouse and didn't find any trace of Tong Ye, nor did he know where the God Organization had confined her.
Forget it! Let's search once more, maybe something was overlooked earlier.
Thinking of this, Ling Chen turned and left, continuing to search for Tong Ye's whereabouts in the warehouse.
As he searched, suddenly, a man walked out from not far away, waved at Ling Chen, and urged, "You, quickly come here."
Ling Chen was slightly stunned and instinctively prepared to leave, but he quickly realized that he was currently impersonating a member of the God Organization. If he left, it would certainly arouse the other's suspicion.
"What are you still dawdling for, come over quickly." Seeing Ling Chen not responding for a long time, the man couldn't help but urge again.
"Coming!" Ling Chen replied in a low voice.
Upon coming closer, the man glanced at Ling Chen, not examining him closely. Moreover, Ling Chen deliberately lowered his head, making it unclear.
"Follow me."
With that, the man led Ling Chen directly towards the north wall of the warehouse. When Ling Chen was almost at the north wall, he suddenly noticed many boxes stacked in front, layer upon layer, like a wall, partitioning off an independent space. So there was this place, how did I not notice it before?
As he thought, Ling Chen followed the man behind the boxes and saw a small space with a chair, on which sat a person; it was Tong Ye. At this moment, Tong Ye was tied to the chair with her hands behind her back, with a guard specifically responsible for monitoring her.
The man pointed at Tong Ye and instructed, "You two take her out, there's a car waiting outside."
"Understood."
Ling Chen nodded in agreement, secretly laughing. What a windfall, he was just thinking of finding Tong Ye, and unexpectedly she fell into his lap so readily.
At that moment, with the cooperation of another guard, Ling Chen escorted Tong Ye out of the warehouse.
Not long after, the three of them made their way through to the outside of the warehouse unimpeded. Upon reaching the surface, Ling Chen immediately saw a Mercedes-Benz van parked by the roadside.
Seeing Ling Chen and the others approaching, the door of the van was immediately opened, and a man in a suit jumped out from the back seat, indicating towards the car, "Put her in."
Upon reaching the Mercedes-Benz van, Ling Chen glanced inside; apart from the man in the suit, there was only a driver. Just three people, easy to handle.
Once everyone was in the vehicle, the door shut, and the body of the Mercedes-Benz van suddenly shook. After more than ten seconds, it finally calmed down. Then, the engine roared to life, and it quickly dashed towards the villa gate.
Five minutes later.
A person came rushing outside the warehouse door, directly crashing open the tightly shut door, then collapsed to the ground.
Seeing the fully armed man lying on the ground, with bloodstains, the few guards at the door immediately rushed over and asked, "What happened?"
The man raised his trembling hand, pointed outside, and weakly said, "Outside... outside someone... hijacking…" After speaking, the man tilted his head and fainted on the ground, unconscious.
"Quick, notify the top, we're under attack outside."
"Understood!" A guard quickly took out a walkie-talkie, reporting the situation to the top.
In a short while, more than twenty fully armed guards formed two teams, hurriedly heading out of the warehouse.
As the footsteps gradually faded away, the previously unnoticed fainted man slowly lifted his head, glanced around, then smiled lightly to himself, getting up from the ground.
Those guys are really easy to fool, believing just one or two random words. Ling Chen thought to himself.
Now, with half of the guards in the warehouse dispatched, it became much easier for Ling Chen to move. It wasn't long before Ling Chen found He Ziyun, who was trapped among the crowd.
"Ling Chen?" He Ziyun was surprised, not expecting to see Ling Chen here.
"Mr. He, don't ask too much right now." Saying this, Ling Chen cut the ropes binding He Ziyun with a dagger, then handed the dagger to him, instructing, "Wait for the right moment, let everyone else free, I have other matters to attend to, I'll leave this to you."
After giving his instructions, Ling Chen didn't stay longer, immediately heading to the other side of the warehouse. His time was extremely tight; though he managed to lure away half of the guards, it wouldn't delay for too long, he needed to complete his task quickly.
In no time, Ling Chen found Wang Hao, Gong Xiong, and the others trapped in a corner. These were the Earthly List masters; he would need their help quite a bit later, he had to rescue them first.
Seeing the fully armed Ling Chen, everyone was slightly stunned, looking at Ling Chen in surprise, "How are you here?"
"I was worried about you all, so I came back after calling the police." As he explained, Ling Chen untied the ropes on everyone.
"Everyone, stay here for now, don't rush to leave, wait for my signal to make a move." Ling Chen seriously instructed them.
