90,000 Years of Longevity

Chapter 109: Pursuit



Over the Wu Family Manor, dark clouds quietly dispersed.

But the rain was getting bigger and bigger.

Rustle...

The rain dripped on the eaves, on the leaves, on the stone road, on the sticky blood, on Jiang Rong, and on the bodies of the Wu Family's descendants, rustling.

The entire Wu Family Manor was extremely silent at this moment.

Except for the sound of raindrops, there was nothing else.

"You really dare to come." When the door of Wu Houde's office was opened, he leaned on the seat and opened his eyes. He looked directly at Ye Bei, and his eyes burst with two cold lights, without any emotion. 

"Patriarch!" When Wu Yuandong saw Wu Houde, the muscles on the corners of his mouth moved and he couldn't help but shout.

"Grandfather!" Wu Fansheng's voice was very low, but after seeing the old man in front of him, his heart would always throb.

"You two bastards, shut up! The Wu Family doesn't have a traitor like you. Get out of here!" Wu Houde yelled at the two and pointed his finger.

"Sir…" Wu Yuandong and Wu Fansheng both did not know what to do and looked at Ye Bei.

"Get out." Ye Bei tilted his head slightly.

"Yes!" Wu Yuandong and Wu Fansheng bowed their heads, bent over, and left the office respectfully.

Wang Gu also crouched and also retreated. When leaving, he closed the door carefully.

In this office, only Ye Bei and Wu Houde were left. 

Ye Bei looked at the statue of the Egyptian Pharaoh with folded hands. A deceased person seemed to walk out of the statue quietly, standing in front of him respectfully, the misty and old images manifested at this moment.

However, Wu Houde did not have the heart to be polite with Ye Bei. When only he and Ye Bei were left here, he did not hesitate to break the quiet atmosphere, "No matter who you are, you will die today." Those eyes were about to burst into flames.

Ye Bei was unmoved, his eyes still on the statue.

"As long as I press this button, the entire Wu Family Manor will be razed to the ground in an instant." Wu Houde held the cane tightly, the bloodshot eyes in his eyes grew more and more.

Hearing this, Ye Bei responded calmly, "If God wants to destroy it, he must first make it crazy… So, is the person who made you so crazy really worth it?"

Wu Houde's body stiffened, "I don't understand what you are talking about."

"Egypt, Pharaoh, and chess pieces!" Ye Bei stated three simple things, but these words made Wu Houde's forehead sweat non-stop, and when he looked at Ye Bei again, the braveness he had just now had decreased a lot.

"Who are you?" Wu Houde asked angrily.

Ye Bei did not reveal anything much, and Wu Houde's madness did not affect him at all, "I'm just an acquaintance of this statue. I came to your Wu's house just to get one thing."

"We Wu family, have nothing belongs to you, and you can't get out of here today, let alone take anything with you." Wu Houde threatened severely.

Click, click, click!

But right after Wu Houde expressed his threat, the Egyptian Pharaoh's statue that had been placed in his office for decades began to crack from the top of its head without signal. The sound of clicks and clacks continued to resound. 

Rumble!

Upon seeing this, Wu Houde stood up from the chair with a trace of fear in his eyes. This thing was given to him by the Egyptian Pharaoh, and it was one of the things he valued most in his life.

In the line of his sight, the statue collapsed too fast. In but an instant, it shattered into pieces. 

Under Wu Houde's blurring gaze, among the fragments, a shiny metal was particularly conspicuous.

"That is?" Wu Houde was full of stupefaction.

Ye Bei didn't say a word, and with a movement of his wrist, the metal slowly rose from the ground and flew into his hand.

It was a carving knife with an oblique angle of about 45 degrees.

The blade was dangerously sharp. 

Its whole body was made of silver-white metal.

But when it appeared in Ye Bei's hand, the entire room was filled with a terrible chill.

"A knife? Why does this thing appear in that statue?" Wu Houde could not believe it, that statue was placed in his office for decades. No one had ever touched it, but there was actually a shiny knife in it, which was really incredible.

"This is similar to the ancient jar that you arranged for people to put in the antique shop. In the ancient jar, there are a pair of human wooden statues, and this carving knife is a tool used to carve those two wooden figures." Ye Bei glanced at the carving knife and put it away forthwith after.

After Wu Houde listened, he only felt that the young man in front of him was too unfathomable.

Toot, toot...

In the tense atmosphere, in front of Wu Houde, the phone that had been wiped so cleanly rang violently.

Upon seeing this, Wu Houde stunned and looked at Ye Bei vigilantly.

"Take it! He knows that I'm here." Ye Bei shot a glance at the phone slightly.

Wu Houde stretched out his hand hesitantly and cautiously took the phone to his ear. The craziness on his face was reduced a lot at this moment, and replaced by a somewhat more respectful complexion, "Your Excellency! That person already..."

"Press the button." On the other side of the phone, the person didn't wait for Wu Houde to finish speaking, he just ordered with a cold tone.

"Yes." Wu Houde immediately felt cold all over, and the expression on his face was crazy again to the extreme at this moment.

From the moment Ye Bei stepped into this office just now, he had already realized this outcome.

When the voice answered, the thumb on the cane which was prepared to press the button a long time ago began to exert force. 

However, when he touched the surface of the button, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't move further in the slightest. Because of too much force, his forehead began to sweat continuously.

Ye Bei did not care about Wu Houde. When the cold sweat on Wu Houde's forehead fell to the floor, Ye Bei said softly, "Pharaoh, how is he?"

This soft and low sentence was transmitted to the other side through the telephone line very clearly.

The person who made the call was stunned on spot.

Then a voice broke out frantically with an extremely arrogant tone, "Of course, the Patriarch is extremely fine, but you... may not live long. If you don't hand over the secret of longevity, no one in this world can save you. "

"Threat?" Ye Bei's voice was still very indifferent, but he sighed secretly in his mind. The Pharaoh he was talking about was not the Patriarch in that person's mouth.

"Yes, it's a threat. The Patriarch has laid a layout out for decades. We have known your existence for a long time, and we have also mastered the way to completely kill you. If you hadn't disappeared out of thin air over the past years, we would have done it a long time ago." The voice over the phone continued to emit arrogance.

Ye Bei kept silent, thinking a little bit.

The muscles on Wu Houde's face were twisted, and he still desperately wanted to press the button. The whole person was crazy to the extreme. His complexion went from pale to black, and his white shirt was soaked with sweat.

"It's a pity, I'm also looking for the answer."

Ye Bei's face was completely uncaring, and he didn't get the slightest anger due to the arrogant voice on the phone. On the contrary, he was tranquil to the extreme. After a long time, he sighed slightly, if Khufu knew that his descendants were so arrogant, Ye Bei didn't how that guy would react.

After Ye Bei's response came.

Ye Bei's body turned into particle light like the fireflies in the night directly in front of Wu Houde's face.

Wu Houde opened his mouth and saw this unbelievable scene. He paused for a while, but at this moment, his strong hand uncontrollably pressed down, the muscles on his face twisted together, and his eyes were tinged with blood, tiredness, and despair.

Swiftly after that, an extremely dazzling fire burst into the sky.
