Chapter 458: The Women (First Update) _1
Throughout the whole night, Ye Xiong couldn’t sleep due to worry.
The other members of the Hunter Organization also didn’t get much sleep, and everyone was feeling very depressed.
Until dawn, there was no call from Long Lan, and the people sent out to gather information had come back empty-handed.
Finally, at eight o’clock the next morning, Long Lan called and said, “By the Mo River, there’s an abandoned factory. If you want to save them, be there within an hour.”
“She asked me to go to an abandoned factory by the Mo River to rescue them,” replied Ye Xiong.
“Did she specify that you have to go alone?”
“No.”
“We’ll go with you.”
“No need, I’ll just bring two people with me.”
Ye Xiong’s gaze rested on the eight core members.
It wasn’t that he didn’t want to bring more people, but he had a premonition that this operation would be the most dangerous one in history. The fact that Long Lan did not request him to go alone meant that she was fully prepared and confident, indicating that no matter how many people he brought, it would be futile.
Although everyone here was a master, against those monster-like Gene Warriors, they would not stand a chance. Taking them would be sending them to their deaths.
Only two people were needed to bring Yang Xinyi back; any more was unnecessary.
“I’m going,” declared Chen Xiao.
“I’ll go too,” announced Vermilion Bird as he stood up.
“I want to go as well,” An Le said as she stepped forward, pulling Angel along. “Sister, let’s go together.”
Murong Ruyin and Duanmu Linglong stood without moving, and they didn’t speak.
“Angel and An Le will accompany me, and Chen Xiao and Vermilion Bird will stay here,” Ye Xiong decided immediately.

Chen Xiao and Vermilion Bird were in the midst of a passionate romance; facing such danger, he didn’t want them to come to harm.
“Angel, An Le, it’s dangerous, and I can’t guarantee we’ll come back alive. Are you sure you want to go?” Ye Xiong asked again.
“I’ve died once before, what’s there to fear?” An Le said.
“I can’t just watch my sister go to her death, can I?” Angel reasoned.
“Get ready, I’m going out to make a phone call,” Ye Xiong said.
After speaking, he left the living room and stood on the balcony.
The golden sunlight shone on him, bright and gentle—a pleasant feeling!
Downstairs the streets were bustling and the crowds were getting noisy, all starting their busy day.
Even though they were busy, at least they could rest assured that they would see the sun tomorrow.
Ye Xiong’s premonition was very strong; this time, even he himself lacked confidence.
Long Lan had been scared off by him. Unless she was absolutely certain she could take him on without fail, why would she casually arrange a meeting with him, and not fear being killed by him?
This excursion was bound to be anything but simple and was likely to be extremely dangerous.
He took out his phone and dialed Du Yuehua’s number.
“What a surprise, the sun must’ve risen from the west for you to call me,” Du Yuehua said, astonished.
“I called because I missed you, okay?”
“Is your wife or lover on her period?” Du Yuehua joked.
“Sister Hua, don’t talk like that,” Ye Xiong scolded with a darkened face.
“I can’t think of any other reason for you to contact me,” Du Yuehua said sourly. “How long has it been since you last visited? I thought you’d forgotten me.”
“I’ve been a bit busy and couldn’t get away. I’ll come to see you as soon as I’m free,” reassured Ye Xiong quickly, pausing before asking, “How’s Youyou? Has she gone to school yet?”
“She’s in the car. I’m about to take her to kindergarten. Talk to her; I’ll drive,” Du Yuehua offered.
Then, Youyou’s distinctive childlike voice came through on the line.
“Uncle Xiong, why haven’t you come to see Youyou in so long, huhu,” Youyou whined sweetly.
“Uncle Xiong has been busy lately, but I’ll definitely play with you the next time.”
“I want to go to the amusement park, the one we visited last time.”
“Alright, alright.”
“Remember to bring the camera, last time you didn’t take any photos, and the kids at the kindergarten are asking me for them!”
“Okay, okay, Uncle will definitely remember.”
“Uncle Xiong, you should call Mom more often, she misses you a lot…”
“Youyou, don’t talk nonsense…” came Du Yuehua’s interrupting voice over the phone.
“I’m not lying, you’re always like this, telling you to call but you never do.”
On the other end of the phone, mother and daughter were arguing, leaving Ye Xiong out of the conversation.
“Ah Xiong, I’ve arrived at the school, that’s it for now,” Du Yuehua said, then hurriedly hung up the phone.
Ye Xiong chuckled, picked up his cell phone, and dialed Luo Weiwei’s number.
It rang for a long time with no answer.
“Go put one on,” Ye Xiong ordered.
Pouting, An Le ran off to put on a bulletproof vest.
Once she had put it on and returned, Ye Xiong took the two women downstairs, got into the car, and sped away.
After they had left, He Mengji’s gaze fell on the others and she asked, “I’m planning to follow them, who wants to join me?”
