Li Huowang gazed at the distant black mountains, realizing the eye of the typhoon was approaching. If he could not resolve the situation before the mountains arrived, everyone with him would likely perish.
Isn’t this the eye of the typhoon? This should be the Siming’s weak point, right? If it isn’t, why would Zhao Shuangdian send here?
Li Huowang jumped into the water and frantically slapped the surface with all his strength.
However, no matter how many tis he struck the water, the surface always returned to its original state.
No... sothing’s wrong. This has to be the place. It’s just that I’m too weak to hurt it!
A trace of despair arose in Li Huowang’s heart.
His enemy’s weakness was right before him, but he still couldn’t kill his enemy. The gap between them was too big.
Could it be that… I’m about to lose?
His expression hardened with unwillingness as he glanced at Yang Na’s pale face.
No, there must be a way. I can find a way! They can’t be that strong! If they were that powerful, we would’ve lost the last ti! These projections are fake! They’re bluffing!
As Li Huowang frantically searched for potential counterattacks, he suddenly focused on the black scar that spread along the veins of his arm.
An idea flashed in Li Huowang’s mind. He climbed back onto the wreckage of the cruise ship. Lightning trembled in the clouds above him, roaring like a beast.
He took so ti to calm himself down. With one arm holding Death, he used his other hand to raise the military knife toward the sky. “Co on! If you’re strong enough, kill ! I am Ji Zai! Do you want the Heavenly Dao of Bewildernt? Then co and take it!”
Crack!
A powerful bolt of purple lightning descended from the sky, heading straight toward Li Huowang. It was noticeably stronger than the previous one.
Just as Li Huowang was on the brink of annihilation, he roared and gripped his knife. He fiercely stabbed at himself, with lightning coursing through him.
“Die!”
In the blink of an eye, everything around him turned white. He felt his remaining eye burst, much like the salted egg yolk within a mooncake.
“Egg yolk?”
Li Huowang stared blankly at the salted egg yolk mooncake on the table. He was now seated inside the White Tower Prison.
He realized what this ant. Ti had rewound, and he had won.
“Hahaha!”
Li Huowang’s sudden laughter startled the other patients and caregivers around him, making them shrink away in fear.
“Hey, Li Huowang, calm down. It’s the Mid-Autumn Festival today,” a nervous orderly said.
Li Huowang was notoriously difficult to deal with, and unfortunately, the orderly had been assigned to him today.
“Hahaha...”
Tears of joy rolled down Li Huowang’s face. He was elated.
He lowered his head and rummaged through the mooncake box, searching until he found the purple yam mooncake—the one with the hidden note. He stuffed it into his mouth and began chewing in big bites.
“Crazy...” the other patients muttered.
They gradually lost interest in him and returned to watching the TV programs.
Three... two... one.
Li Huowang silently counted down, and the band of inmates with serious cris comnced their performance in the prison yard as if on cue. The majority of the people in the room gravitated toward the exercise area.
Once Li Huowang saw that most people had left, he stood up and headed to the n’s restroom, following the sa steps as before.
This ti, after putting on his disguise, he deliberately waited a few more minutes to avoid running into Yi Donglai again.
Thump!
The car door slamd shut.
Li Huowang ripped off his mask and coldly spoke to Ba Shengqing at the wheel, saying, “Drive to Qing Wanglai’s villa!”
With the Simings dead, the siblings who had died in the water returned to life. Everything was back.
Sitting beside Li Huowang, Ba Nanxu gave him a teasing look. “Do you really know who pulled you out? Do you think getting soone out of a psychiatric hospital is that easy? You should show so gratitude, Huowang.”
“Dial Zhao Shuangdian’s number. I’ll talk to her,” Li Huowang said.
Ba Nanxu frowned slightly and licked her lip piercing with her forked tongue. Sothing felt off about Li Huowang. He seed different from the crazy person he used to be.
“Hello, it’s . Li Huowang just left the psychiatric hospital, and now he wants to go to Qing Wanglai’s place.”
Li Huowang snatched the phone from her hand before she could finish. “Hey, Zhao Shuangdian, this is topology. You were thinking in the wrong direction earlier.”
Li Huowang could feel Zhao Shuangdian’s shock even through the phone.
After a long silence, Li Huowang added, “Have your people take to Qing Wanglai’s place. You should also co quickly. I’ll explain when we get there.”
He returned the phone to Ba Nanxu. She then spoke a few words in acknowledgnt to Zhao Shuangdian before hanging up and looking at Li Huowang with a strange expression.
“What are you looking at?! Drive!”
Ba Nanxu kicked her brother’s seat, and the car started moving.
As they drove, Ba Nanxu kept glancing at Li Huowang. He was staring out the window, deep in thought.
This expression was sothing she had never seen on him before. She had expected him to be more agitated. After all, he had spent months confined in a psychiatric hospital.
And what was that “topology” he ntioned? If she wasn’t mistaken, wasn’t that a mathematical term?
Given what she knew about him, how could he possibly understand sothing like that?
When the car entered the area of the villa in the suburbs, Li Huowang didn’t even wait for it to stop. He threw the car door open and rushed inside.
He ignored Chen Hongyu, who was watching TV in the living room, and headed straight to the third floor.
With a single kick, he broke down the door of a room and rushed in. He tightly hugged Yang Na, who was curled up at the foot of the bed.
He stroked her soft hair repeatedly, his hand trembling. His heart finally felt calm.
“Huowang, you’re finally back. I’m so glad. I’ve waited so long for you. Why are you crying? Did I do sothing wrong? I’m sorry, it’s my fault. I shouldn’t have called the police...”
Li Huowang shook his head. He let go of Yang Na and carefully examined her face for a mont. Then, he hugged her tightly again, laughing through his tears.
“No, you’re perfect, Nana. You’re amazing. Your death saved us all.”
