Chapter 587 - A COFFEE BREAK (1/2)

Hu Lei was close to the Arena when she heard the beeping sound from her Bluetooth earbud. She tapped on it because she knew it was Zhong Feng. She had promised him to answer every call during their time on Martial Island.

”Hey, darling!” She said playfully.

She was a little tired from running the distance, but she was not completely out of breath. Therefore, she could still talk coherently.

”You sound a little busy.” Zhong Feng said with a frown.

”It's nothing. I am almost done. Kaito and Akira should have handled everything for us to leave the island. I am just tying up the loose ends.” Hu Lei replied as she reached the entrance of the chaotic Arena.

”Alright. I am activating the alarm for Interpol and the other agencies that jumped the bandwagon. Get out from the Arena immediately. That place is about to become a warzone.” Zhong Feng reminded Hu Lei.

Hu Lei entered the chaotic Arena and parried the blade of an unknown person. She could not believe the state of affairs. She could not have imagined that the simplistic Martial Island would have turned into the most shocking bloodbath.

”You have no idea.” She muttered.

”What?” Zhong Feng could hardly hear her over the noise.

”I will be out in a minute. Do it.” Hu Lei shouted.

After cutting off the communications line, Hu Lei fought with brutal efficiency to reach the centre of the Arena. She knew that Jiang Yinuo would be in the middle of everything. And as expected, she was fighting competitors with a smile.

”You are late.” Jiang Yinuo said.

”I took a coffee break.” Hu Lei replied sarcastically as she fought the people surrounding Jiang Yinuo.

”Don't get smart with me.” Jiang Yinuo rolled her eyes.

”Whatever. We need to go. Now.” Hu Lei did not continue bantering.

Jiang Yinuo nodded. Like twins from a warrior nation, the two ladies lifted their swords and exploded with power. Unlike before, they were not simply responding to attacks. They were assault weapons. With slashes, they carved a path out of the Arena, leaving everyone bloody and without an option to stop them.

As soon as they were outside, Hu Lei pulled Jiang Yinuo to a dark corner of the solid security. She pulled out a black motorcycle from the shadows and hopped on it. She beckoned for Jiang Yinuo to get on with impatience.

”Are you telling me that you found a motorcycle randomly for our escape?” Jiang Yinuo asked as she hopped on.

”Don't be silly. This is not a movie. I organized for a motorcycle to be placed here for our escape.” Hu Lei replied. ”Now, hold on tight.”

With that, the motorbike roared to life and shot off like a bullet.

As the two ladies escaped from the Arena, new sounds filled the night air as the Interpol agents who were 'invited' by Taiki to the Triennial Championships made an appearance from the shadows. Immediately, the Arena became a greater bloodbath.
