Chapter 472: It's me, yes, I know it's you.

Special Department.

Monitoring Division.

Beep! Beep!

The alarm blared.

"Holy crap! Holy crap!"

The monitoring personnel exclaimed, staring in disbelief at the situation displayed on the screen, beads of sweat trickling down their cheeks.

Tang Wensheng, the person in charge, heard the alarm and his face changed dramatically. He used to be very sensitive to this sound. Whenever it rang, he knew it was definitely bad news. But the evil creatures had disappeared for so long, it shouldn't be possible, right?

"What's going on?" he asked urgently.

The monitoring personnel reported, "An unknown energy fluctuation has appeared in the suburbs. The level is quite high, and after mixing together, it's an energy level we haven't seen in years."

Tang Wensheng hurriedly asked, "What's the direction of its advance?"

The monitoring personnel replied, "It's only fifty kilometers away from Yanhai City, and it's moving very fast. It will reach Yanhai City in twenty minutes at most."

Tang Wensheng immediately reported the situation to One-Eyed Man.

In the office.

One-Eyed Man's expression turned serious when he learned about this.

Evil creatures?

What on earth was happening?

He was completely bewildered. Evil creatures hadn't appeared for a long time. How could they suddenly reappear?

"Inform everyone, all members are to wait in the south. We must stop the evil creatures outside the city. Are there any evil creatures appearing in the city, such as near the Cross-River Bridge?" One-Eyed Man asked.

Evil creatures used to love appearing from the river.

If there were energy fluctuations there as well, they needed to deploy in advance.

"No signs have been detected yet," Tang Wensheng said.

One-Eyed Man said, "Lin Daoming, take some members to guard the Cross-River Bridge, in case the evil creatures try a diversionary tactic."

"Yes," Lin Daoming nodded.

One-Eyed Man remained calm in the face of the situation and told Jin He Li to hurry up and make the arrangements. He was about to take people to the south to defend. He was quite annoyed by the arrival of the evil creatures. These youngsters had no respect for martial virtues, launching an attack after they'd had a period of rest. Could it be they wanted to take advantage of their relaxed state and launch a sneak attack?

Thinking about it carefully...

There was that possibility.

However, he definitely wasn't panicking. With Lin Fan in Yanhai City, it would always be the safest place.

Inside the city.

Many members of the Special Department, upon learning that evil creatures were attacking from the south, immediately dropped what they were doing. Regardless of their cultivation level, they shouldered the responsibility of protecting Yanhai City. No matter the danger, they would never retreat.

The citizens were puzzled when they saw this.

It had been a long time since they'd seen such a situation.

Figures leaped from building to building with great speed and determined gazes. They wouldn't fear any danger they encountered.

Sun Xiao had recently become a cross-platform food broadcaster, promoting Yanhai City's specialties in his spare time. Seeing the situation around him, he immediately sensed something big was happening.

"Everyone, members of the Special Department are all mobilized. Something big must be happening. I, Sun Xiao, will bring you first-hand information."

The food in front of him instantly lost its appeal. He dropped his chopsticks and left.

The restaurant owner shouted, "Big broadcaster, don't go! You haven't recommended my food yet! I paid you!"

Seeing Sun Xiao disappear, the owner nearly exploded on the spot. "Damn it! Getting paid to do a job is only right and proper. Where did he go?"

In the live stream:

"Damn streamer, taking money to introduce food. I almost believed you."

"Money talks."

The owner's words were heard by everyone in the live stream.

Sun Xiao ran while watching the live stream, calmly saying, "I have to eat too. It's a small issue, not worth mentioning. What comes next is the streamer's time to shine. In just this short period, I've seen no less than dozens of members heading that way."

At the edge of the buildings.

One-Eyed Man stood on a rooftop, looking into the distance. Although it was far away, he could still see a fierce aura filling the sky in the distance.

Master Yongxin said, "Why are the evil creatures attacking? With the arrival of the Starry Sky Clans, the evil creatures have all hidden themselves. Could they have reached an agreement with the Starry Sky Clans to attack?"

Liu Haichan said, "Be careful. According to the energy reaction map, there are quite a few evil creatures. We absolutely cannot let them rush into the city."

The other members were ready.

The strength of these members might not be ranked high, but when faced with an attack by evil creatures, they all came without fear. No matter what kind of opponent they encountered, they wouldn't be afraid.

Gradually, Liu Haichan noticed One-Eyed Man was in a daze, as if thinking about something.

"What's wrong?"

One-Eyed Man slowly said, "Isn't the Alliance High Court out in the suburbs in that direction?"

Master Yongxin said, "It seems like it."

Liu Haichan said, "It's not 'seems like it,' it is. If the evil creatures want to enter Yanhai City, they must pass through the Alliance High Court."

Hearing this, One-Eyed Man couldn't help but laugh. He remembered when Old Master Xu agreed to the establishment of the Alliance High Court, he had quite a few objections. Now it seemed that he was truly a shrewd old fox. Building it in the suburbs made a lot of sense.

One-Eyed Man took out his phone and directly dialed Jin He Li.

He asked her to send a message to the students who joined the Alliance High Court, informing them of the arrival of the evil creatures. If they wanted to take refuge, they should return to the city.

Even though they had joined the Alliance High Court, in One-Eyed Man's view, they were still compatriots, and he couldn't ignore them.

After settling all this, he waited quietly.

"There's a good show to watch," One-Eyed Man said.

Master Yongxin and Liu Haichan looked at each other.

It seemed this "good show" was for those Starry Sky Clans in the Alliance High Court to deal with.

In the distance.

The army of evil creatures was extremely violent. Every evil creature was entwined with red lines, their eyes filled with bloodlust, a sign of madness, as if they were empowered by some terrifying force.

Each one exuded a terrifying aura of violence.

Now, these evil creatures only had killing in their minds, nothing else.

In the city.

Lin Fan and Old Zhang were just strolling around. Mu Qing was very curious about the relationship between Lin Fan and Old Zhang, wondering how they managed to get along to such an extent. Their relationship was too close. If Old Zhang were a woman, she would suspect they were having an affair.

"Huh!"

Lin Fan looked up at the distance.

Old Zhang asked, "What's wrong?"

Lin Fan said, "There's a bad aura coming this way, but it's a bit far away."

"Really? Want to go take a look?" Old Zhang asked. He knew Lin Fan liked to watch the excitement, so he voiced it out so Lin Fan wouldn't have to ask if he wanted to go.

The two of them could understand each other's thoughts, something Mu Qing couldn't do. It was something she needed to learn.

Well, to put it in a slightly strange way…

It was like telepathy.

Lin Fan said, "Okay, let's go take a look."

Being curious about unfamiliar things is everyone's habit, let alone two mentally ill patients.

The Evil Rooster was very excited and also very strange. He smelled the scent of his compatriots. Evil creatures had appeared again, but he couldn't understand why they would suddenly reappear after disappearing for so long.

Just as they were about to leave…

"We meet again." A figure walked from afar, as if traversing an immense distance in an instant. Despite the apparent distance, he appeared in front of Lin Fan in a moment.

The mysterious man smiled, a smile with a kind of magic, like the kind often seen in movies, the villain's smile, where his features determined whether he was good or bad.

If a superficial woman were to see such a smile, she would definitely say, "How handsome."

Lin Fan and Old Zhang looked at each other.

They were a little nervous.

They remembered what Director Hao had told them. This person in front of them was seriously ill.

Lin Fan smiled. "Yes, we meet again."

The mysterious man asked, "Where are you going?"

Lin Fan replied, "Um, going over there to take a look."

Ever since Old Zhang learned that this mysterious man was mentally ill, he didn't have any discriminatory thoughts, but rather a sense of worry. He really wanted to tell Director Hao, why not find someone to properly treat this kind of person? Letting him wander around outside was very dangerous. What if he hurt someone?

The Evil Rooster was very wary of this mysterious man because he felt dangerous.

The mysterious man said, "There's nothing to see over there. I want to go over there. How about accompanying me?"

"That won't do. I can't accompany you today. I need to be with my wife. How about tomorrow?" Lin Fan said. He wanted to go over there because Old Zhang suggested it. Although the other party was mentally ill, their relationship wasn't as close as his and Old Zhang's, so he naturally refused.

However, the mysterious man lacked this self-awareness. Rejected by Lin Fan, he didn't react, but instead glanced at Mu Qing, smiling and saying, "Such a mundane woman is not worthy of you."

Mu Qing was indeed an ordinary person, plain and simple, without anything special.

"Are you insulting my wife?" Lin Fan frowned, his good impression of the mysterious man vanishing completely. Even if the other party was mentally ill, he couldn't insult his wife.

The mysterious man said, "No."

"Yes, you did. I heard it. There's no mistake. Apologize to my wife." Lin Fan said firmly.

Mu Qing softly said, "I'm fine, don't be like this."

Lin Fan patted her hand, giving her a reassuring look. "I'll protect you."

The mysterious man said, "Lin Fan, you're too sentimental. You should let go of everything and progress with me, instead of having these thoughts."

Click!

Lin Fan clenched his fists, his breathing gradually becoming rapid, as if brewing some kind of power.

The mysterious man noticed Lin Fan's unusual state and looked surprised.

"You want to hit me?"

Lin Fan said, "Apologize, or I'll beat you up."

The mysterious man shook his head. "Lin Fan, you disappoint me. You actually want to hit me for a woman. You have to remember, I am your eternal partner. Hitting me is hitting your hope. Is your hope so worthless?"

Creak!

Lin Fan's fists clenched tightly, his knuckles cracking. Then, he threw a punch at the mysterious man.

"Shut up!"

The mysterious man clearly hadn't expected Lin Fan to attack, but he didn't take it to heart. He raised his hand, intending to catch Lin Fan's fist.

But he ultimately underestimated Lin Fan's strength.

A terrifying force transmitted through him.

The mysterious man flew backward, his arm twisted grotesquely where he'd tried to catch Lin Fan's fist.

Lin Fan stroked Mu Qing's head, smiling. "Don't worry, I won't let anyone bully you. Even if this guy is mentally ill, I won't forgive him."

Old Zhang said excitedly, "Well hit! How dare he bully our wife."

Lin Fan said, "She's my wife."

Old Zhang nodded. "Yes, I know. She's my wife."

"She's mine."

"I know, she's mine."
