Lifetime of Bliss And Contentment With You

Pei Yucheng didn’t respond. Instead, his eyes darted to the window.

At the same time, his eyes gleamed coldly.

Pei Yucheng rose and removed his loose pajamas before putting on his clothes.

“Follow me closely,” Pei Yucheng told Lin Yan, who looked puzzled.

Although Lin Yan had no idea what was happening, she instinctively nodded and rose from the bed. She then followed Pei Yucheng closely.

Tonight seemed different.

Pei Yucheng had dismissed everyone in the mansion and gone to her room. He wanted to keep her close to him.

Had something happened?

Lin Yan followed Pei Yucheng out of the room.

It was pitch-black outside the mansion.

A cold wind was blowing, and it was chilly.

Pei Yucheng stood there casually as he surveyed his surroundings.

The corners of his mouth curled into an ambiguous smile.

Lin Yan suddenly heard sounds from all directions.

She had heard these sounds many times, but nothing good had happened before.

Pei Yucheng picked up a stone casually.

A second later, a loud whoosh was heard.

The stone was like an arrow that had just left its bow, striking a part of the darkness.

‘Bang!’

A pitiful scream echoed.

A black shadow then fell from the wall and crashed into the mansion.

“Damn it!”

The black shadow cursed under its breath, stood up, and turned to flee.

Pei Yucheng vanished on the spot and blocked the shadow.

“Who are you?”

The black figure frowned while watching Pei Yucheng warily.

Pei Yucheng stood rooted to the spot as he adjusted his spectacles. Then, his gaze trailed to the shadow.

As he scrutinized the black figure, his heart seemed to be gripped tightly by an invisible hand. Even his breathing began to quicken.

The black shadow had no idea what was happening. However, the man before it gave it an overwhelming sense of pressure. It was as though there was a substantial disparity between them that made the shadow gasp.

“Come to my place and ask me who I am.”

Pei Yucheng stared at the shadow with a faint smile before he replied softly.

“I get it now… You’re not an ordinary person either… We belong to the Hunter’s Guild. This has nothing to do with you. You understand what I mean.” The black shadow didn’t seem to be afraid of Pei Yucheng.

No one knew about the Hunter’s Guild.

No matter how high someone’s level was, they wouldn’t be a match for the Hunter’s Guild.

“That woman!”

The black figure’s eyes trailed to Lin Yan, who stood a short distance away.

The mission this time involved that woman. There was no mistake about it.

“This has nothing to do with you. Get lost.”

The black shadow stole a glance at Pei Yucheng before turning around and bolting for Lin Yan.

Before the black figure could move forward, someone grabbed its hair.

‘Whoosh!’

A second later, the black figure was flung away.

The black figure’s body flashed with a slight arc in the air before it slammed heavily against a tree of the manor.

Another pitiful scream came from the black shadow’s mouth.

The black shadow touched the back of its head, its expression changing drastically. “M-my thick beautiful hair!”

“The target is here. Take that woman away!”

The black figure yelled.

As the black shadow spoke, dozens of black figures sprang out from all directions and raced toward Lin Yan at the same time.

Even Lin Yan was startled by their presence. What was going on?
