My Pretty Campus Queen

Chapter 640 - 638: Jumped Into the River

Wan Qi couldn’t waste any time, she leaped into the water as well.

"Don’t move!" Suddenly, dozens of officers led by Director Qu, all holding guns, surrounded them in a mountain pass. Hu Fei, Wang Tao, and Peng Wanli were all captured.

"Big brother, what do we do?" Wang Tao was a bit anxious, the thought of being taken back by the police and living a life in darkness filled him with fear.

"Heh, are you scared?"

At this moment, Hu Fei had let go of everything and realized they were doomed. Running wasn’t an option with hundreds of guns pointed at them, and even if they managed to escape, the Earth Dragon was gone, and the Black Alliance wouldn’t spare them.

"Afraid? Then I wouldn’t be Peng Wanli." Peng Wanli sneered coldly.

"Fourth brother, what about you?" Hu Fei asked Wang Tao beside him.

...

"I... I..." Wang Tao hesitated for a moment and said, "We’re brothers, if we die, we die together."

"Heh." Hu Fei chuckled, glanced at Peng Wanli, and it seemed as if they reached some agreement. Suddenly, both of them grabbed Wang Tao by the shoulders and sprinted toward the riverbank.

"Stop right now, this is the final warning, or we’ll open fire," Zhao Bing warned. To his surprise, they still dared to run for it despite being cornered, ignoring his command.

But even after Zhao Bing spoke, the three of them desperately ran forward. Zhao Bing felt awkward because he didn’t want to shoot them dead since the law, not him, should decide their fate.

"Wang Tao, remember this, we’ve saved your life, whatever happens, you must live on and avenge the Earth Dragon, kill those cops, and that Chen Tianlong," Hu Fei said while running.

"Bang bang bang!" A series of gunshots rang out like firecrackers on New Year’s. Peng Wanli and Hu Fei used their bodies to shield Wang Tao, taking multiple bullets.

"Ah!" With their last breath, they exerted all their strength to fling Wang Tao into the air toward the river with a splash.

In mid-air, Wang Tao took one last look at his brothers, closed his eyes tightly, and began to sink to the bottom.

The water was ten meters deep, and below, there was a secret passageway built when the Earth Dragon Organization’s residence was first established.

Only a few of the brothers and the Black Alliance knew about this secret. Earlier, Xue Kong had entered this underwater cave with Jiang Yufan.

The reason why Xue Kong took Jiang Yufan was simple; he wanted to eliminate Wan Qi and the injured Chen Tianlong. By capturing Jiang Yufan, they could lure the others into a trap.

On the shore.

Peng Wanli and Hu Fei were already dead. Zhao Bing looked at the deceased pair, sighed deeply, but still felt uneasy. Although they found the goods, Zhao Bing didn’t know where the other two accomplices went or why they took Jiang Yufan.

"Chen Tianlong, are you alright?" Zhao Bing asked, turning back to see Chen Tianlong still struggling to heal, worried.

"Mr. Hong, I’m fine."

With Wan Qi’s powerful qi helping to heal, Chen Tianlong’s injuries were temporarily under control. But after getting up, he started walking toward the riverbank not far away, suddenly stopping to say, "Mr. Hong, I suggest you quickly transport the goods, I fear something unexpected might happen."

Even though things seemed settled, Chen Tianlong’s chest felt heavy, harboring an ominous feeling.

"Alright."

Zhao Bing trusted Chen Tianlong’s intuition, knowing he wasn’t an ordinary person, so he ordered the large box of goods and those found in the factory to be transported away.

The rest spread out, capturing all Earth Dragon workers and any remaining forces.

At the riverbank, Chen Tianlong activated the Nine Yang Celestial Dragon Technique and closed his eyes, aiming to use X-ray to see what lay beneath the water. After observing for a while, he saw an iron door about one meter long and wide beneath a large stone at the bottom.

"How could there be an iron door underwater? If opened, wouldn’t it fill with water? Could it be..." Chen Tianlong suddenly thought of something, immediately leaping into the water.

Zhao Bing, who had seen Chen Tianlong moments ago, was puzzled when he turned back to find him gone. Stepping to the riverbank, he realized from the rippling water that Chen Tianlong must be going after those who had gone underwater.

Initially, he wanted to follow, but a voice called out, "Director Zhao, we’ve caught someone else sleeping here. The Earth Dragon workers say he’s the third-in-command, Liu Qi."

"Third-in-command, Liu Qi, bring him here," Zhao Bing was excited, thinking they wouldn’t catch any core Earth Dragon personnel but managed to find one alone.

Liu Qi had previously been acupoint-sealed by Chen Tianlong, only temporarily freed by Hu Fei’s powerful qi. Yet, Chen Tianlong’s Acupoint Divine Skill wasn’t easily broken. The acupoint had closed again after a while, showcasing the power of Chen Tianlong’s Divine Skill. Until its effect dissipates, even forcefully breaking it only leads to restoration.

"Damn, this guy’s a practitioner."

Zhao Bing was surprised, relieved that Liu Qi had been caught asleep because capturing him awake might have been impossible. He urgently ordered: "This person is dangerous, tie him up properly, or once he wakes, we may not be able to handle him."

"Yes, sir."

The officers tied Liu Qi securely, even cuffing him with two pairs of handcuffs, ensuring that even a Profound Dao master couldn’t escape.

After handling everything, Zhao Bing instructed Li Jun and Zhang Yufei to lead their units back to the police station, while he waited with a small team by the river.

So many people had jumped into the river, their fates uncertain. Among them were two mysterious women and Chen Tianlong.

Zhao Bing had summoned Chen Tianlong, whose life he couldn’t ignore, so he had to wait. He believed that Chen Tianlong never acted without confidence, meaning he must have discovered something.

Zhao Bing knew that those who jumped into the water were powerful practitioners. Going in with his team would only lead to trouble and hinder Chen Tianlong, so he opted to wait on the shore.

After diving in, Chen Tianlong quickly found the large stone. The water wasn’t deep, just over ten meters, making the pressure negligible for him.

Grabbing hold of the iron door with both hands, Chen Tianlong yanked it open. While others might have closed it to keep intruders out, Chen Tianlong left it open for easier escape.

Without hesitation, Chen Tianlong plunged headfirst into the passage, swimming inward. He believed this entrance led to a hidden cave.
