Underworld Retrograde

Like doom, the chandelier hit the middle-aged man accurately.

It was like a fate that had been arranged long ago. Deadly and sudden!

Is this the fate that this family has to bear after rising?

No! This feeling is very wrong.

As an old unlucky man, Li Yelai discovered this danger in advance.

There was no way, he would consider whether a fish would jump out and give him a flick of the tail when he passed by the pond.

When he saw the chandelier, he imagined the reaction and remedy he would make when it suddenly fell.

So, when he felt a certain feeling, Li Yelai had already reacted.

The two bodyguards behind Wang Erye changed their colors, one of them reached out to grab the middle-aged man and pulled him back desperately.

The other one was full of fear in his eyes, and he didn't dare to move for a while.

The great fear between life and death made him give up his bodyguard duties and didn't risk rescuing his employer.

The middle-aged man called Wang Erye felt a dark head, and the bodyguards behind him pulled him frantically.

He didn't even understand what happened.

However, the next moment, he saw a handsome young man in a suit suddenly stand up and kick at a speed that ordinary people could not do.

"Fuck! It's coming for me!" Wang Erye just had this thought in his mind, and he felt a sharp pain in his shoulder, and his body flew up, knocking the bodyguards behind him out together.

'Pah'

At this time, the sound of the chandelier falling and the screams of the nearby guests were heard.

Watching Li Yelai who kicked Wang Erye away with a flying kick, and quickly dodged the chandelier and returned to his side.

Cheese glanced around and couldn't help but whispered: "Do you have some personal emotions in this kick?"

"How can it be, if he dies, our mission will fail." Li Yelai also responded with caution.

If he hadn't kicked Wang Erye away with a flying kick, the chandelier would probably have taken his head.

This huge and heavy chandelier would probably be enough to fall on a psychic.

"But he is the son of our sponsor." The detective's eyes flickered, and he had obviously activated his ability.

"Then he is of the same generation as us?" Li Yelai laughed softly: "He should thank us."

"Don't be funny, be careful." Cheese elbowed Li Yelai.

The scene at this moment was a bit chaotic. With the sudden fall of the chandelier, the hall became much darker. With the screams, some people retreated in panic, and some stepped forward nervously.

Many glamorous girls stepped off their high heels, and the suave young men could not hide their panic.

In the dim light, noisy voices were heard everywhere.

"Someone is dead, run!"

"Mr. Wang was hit! Call an ambulance!"

"No, Mr. Wang was kicked away."

"What happened?"

"Don't push me, hooligan!"

"Ouch, who took off my shoes?"

"Calm down, don't run!"

In the chaos, Li Yelai, the detective and Cheese calmly observed the surroundings.

"Be careful, it might be a psychic from the Netherworld Path." Cheese whispered, "I didn't see him."

"My 'trace pursuit' didn't see any traces left." The detective responded, "If it's really the Netherworld Path, then the other party has at least mastered two abilities. One is stealth, and the other is teleportation. Otherwise, there will be traces!"

"Is it possible that it's the ability of other paths? Divine control?" Li Yelai reached behind him with one hand and held the jet axe.

"No, if it's Divine control, we can at least see the weapon." Cheese responded.

Everything just now seemed to be an accident.

But it was completely different from Li Yelai's misfortune.

After the official investigation, Li Yelai's misfortune was the intersection of many coincidences and accidents.

He was also hit by the chandelier.

The fixing point of the chandelier, or even the ceiling, must have had problems that were not easy to detect.

In the end, it led to a certain inevitability.

But everything just now was different. Someone directly cut off the chandelier and forced it to fall.

This was a man-made accident!

As psychics, Li Yelai and others noticed some movements.

But unfortunately, their eyes did not see this scene.

"Two abilities. The second awakening of the netherworld path?" The three people's hearts sank. If the killer is a second awakening netherworld, this mission will be very difficult.

"This time, I will help in secret." Cheese whispered, and then mixed into the crowd.

Soon, as more lights came on, the commotion gradually subsided.

Some guests returned to their elegant and noble appearance again, as if everything before was a confused illusion.

And taking advantage of the commotion just now, Cheese quietly distanced herself from Li Yelai and the detective.

She couldn't reveal her identity as an official handler.

So, she pretended to be frightened and pitiful and mixed into the crowd, attracting many young people to ask about her well-being.

On the other side, a bodyguard immediately came to Wang Erye and wanted to help him up from the ground.

Who knew that Wang Erye's face was pale, and he said weakly: "Don't move, it's broken, it's broken! Call someone, call someone!"

Soon, more security personnel and private doctors came.

There were quite a few security personnel among them, who secretly surrounded Li Yelai and the detective.

Fortunately, Mr. Wang was still conscious and was put on a stretcher. Instead of embarrassing Li Yelai, he said with a pale face: "Little brother, thank you for saving my life. I will repay you."

The flying kick just now broke two of his bones.

Compared to being hit by a chandelier, this was considered a minor injury.

But this still made Mr. Wang feel scared. If Li Yelai's kick missed and hit his chest, the consequences would probably not be much better than being hit by a chandelier.

The detective responded: "We just take money to do things."

Their identities are psychics hired by the old family master, so there is nothing wrong with saying this.

But the second master Wang's eyes flashed with surprise and suspicion, and he was obviously confused about the identity of the two people.

'how? Doesn’t this second prince know that his father hired a psyker? ’ Li Yelai thought to himself.

The detective was also thoughtful.

After this incident, for safety reasons, the dinner ended in a hurry.

The guests also left one after another.

But Cheese, who was originally mixed in the crowd, has disappeared and no one knows where he has hidden.

Li Yelai and the detective were invited to the second floor by the old housekeeper who appeared again.

"Thanks to you, I was able to save the second young master."

The housekeeper looked at Li Yelai with awe in his eyes.

Just now, he was in the corridor on the second floor and witnessed the scene where Li Yelai kicked away Mr. Wang and the bodyguard.

Is this a psyker? The old housekeeper sighed inwardly, having a new understanding of the dangers of psykers.

Li Yelai nodded slightly, then picked up his big black umbrella and followed the old housekeeper.

Compared with the spacious hall, the layout on the second floor is more refined and rich.

Every few meters on the walls, there are precious portraits.

Of course, there is also more security.

The servants in black clothes walking in the corridor all have obvious bulges in their waists.

Good guy, this royal family actually has a lot of private armed forces? After all, he was born as a scavenger.

Li Yelai was thinking in his mind.

A few minutes later, the old housekeeper led the two of them to the large room at the far end of the second floor.

In the vast room, several people were already seated, including men and women, a total of four people.

Sitting on the left is a girl in a white dress in her twenties, young and beautiful.

An old man with white hair sat in the middle.

The old man was wearing thick pajamas and had a kind smile on his face.

On the right side are a middle-aged woman in gorgeous clothes and a young man who is somewhat similar to Mr. Wang.

They looked at the girl in the white dress with disgust or vigilance.

They are the last members of the Wang family.

The old man in the middle is Wang De.

Now almost ninety years old, he is an old man who has experienced chaotic times.

Although he is old, it can still be seen that his body is very strong.

The girl in the white dress is the daughter of Wang De's eldest son. That is Wang De's granddaughter.

The middle-aged woman is Wang De's third daughter.

That young man is the son of Mr. Wang.

Except for the injured Mr. Wang, the rest of the family members, or those who are qualified to inherit the family, have already arrived.

After the housekeeper came in with Li Yelai and the detective, Wang De's eyes were fixed on Li Yelai.

To be precise, it was locked on the black umbrella in Li Yelai's hand.

After a long time, Wang De laughed in a hoarse voice: "Young man, you remind me of an old friend."

"Are you talking about this black umbrella?" Li Yelai asked, pointing to the large parasol.

Wang De smiled and said: "Indeed, but his black umbrella is smaller. However, I haven't seen him for a long, long time."

"Is that old friend the murderer who targeted your family?" Li Yelai asked straight to the point.

"Mr. Wang De, I hope you can tell us more information." The detective also said.

Wang De glanced at the housekeeper and smiled faintly: "No, this has nothing to do with you two. This is our family matter."

Li Yelai and the detective were stunned, not understanding what was happening.

Why is it irrelevant?

Didn't you, an old boy, hire us to visit you at a high price?

Why, just a door-to-door appointment is over?

The butler on the side lowered his head and said nothing.

"Thank you for saving my son, but your mission ends here. Don't worry, the deposit has been paid. It doesn't mean that your trip was in vain." Wang De said calmly, but his eyes looked at the old man. Butler: "Old Huang, you have been with me for thirty years. Why, now you don't recognize me as the head of the family? I'm not dead yet!"

The last few words were filled with anger. An old man who is nearly ninety years old still has a terrible sense of oppression.

"Master, I can't sit back and watch the children who grew up in front of me continue to die in vain." The old housekeeper begged in a low voice: "Let them investigate, we can't die anymore."

Li Yelai reacted after thinking.

The person who hired the detective was not actually the head of the old family.

But the old housekeeper himself? Or is there someone else?

No wonder Mr. Wang was so surprised when he learned that Li Yelai and the detective were hired.

Wang De never thought of hiring a psyker!

Even at this time, even if his son almost died, he had to hide some secrets.

"Don't embarrass Uncle Huang. I was the one who hired them, grandpa."

At this time, a crisp voice sounded.

The girl in the white dress sitting on the sofa on the left suddenly spoke.

Her long black hair fell on her shoulders, and she looked at the old man: "How long will our family be cursed? Isn't my father's death enough? Grandpa, stop hiding it. Tell us."

The old man looked at the girl with disbelief in his eyes. Then he turned fierce and hit the coffee table hard: "I'm not dead yet, and the position of the head of the family is not in your hands yet! Do you want to order me?"

The old man's threats made the girl in the white dress tremble. Tears welled up in his eyes.

"That's right, what qualifications do you, a junior, have to ask for a father." Another woman even more supported.

But the old man yelled: "Shut up!"

Then, the old man looked at Li Yelai and the detective: "You two, leave here. Forget all this, this is our family matter! There is no need for outsiders to interfere!"

As the old man's order was given, the door behind Li Yelai was opened.

Several bodyguards appeared at the door, watching Li Yelai and the detective warily.

Obviously, if Li Yelai and others didn't leave, it would probably be an ugly scene.

Li Yelai and the detective frowned. They were not worried about bodyguards. But I am worried about the current situation.

But leaving like this is obviously wrong.

Li Yelai is an official psychic and a disaster handler.

Now that the psyker murderer and traces of a certain curse have been discovered, we can't just sit back and ignore it.

This is also the reason why the authorities do not refuse handlers to take private jobs.

If something related to psychics or even forbidden objects is discovered in private life.

The trouble must be resolved before the situation becomes serious.

So, Li Yelai and the detective looked at each other.

Both of them stood behind the girl in the skirt.

"Since you, Mr. Wang, are not the ones who hired us, there is no need for us to follow your instructions." The detective smiled and said, "Don't look at me like this, I have very professional ethics."

This is not a lie. Before the detective became a psyker, he was a private detective, although his main task was to catch mistresses.

But no matter what price the party under investigation gives, he will not betray his employer. He is indeed very professional.

Li Yelai complained in his heart, but said: "Follow our employer's arrangements."

Seeing the two people's choices, Wang De sneered: "You don't think that two psychics can kill me, do you? Although my Wang family is not as good as those aristocratic families, it is not that two psychics can shake it. Yes! You weren’t even born when I went out into the wilderness to kill weirdos!”

The next second, more armed men poured into the room, pointing rifles at Li Yelai and the detective.

It was as if they were to be beaten into sieves with an order.

"You dare to attack us?" The detective's face darkened. The psyker's barrier could indeed withstand bullets.

But under such a large-scale strafing attack, the psychic barrier is expected to be exhausted quickly. He will really be dead by then!

And, the detective even saw a melta gun!

"You actually still have a melta gun?" The detective was surprised.

The melta gun is a powerful weapon that can consume psychic barriers to a great extent.

At the same time, it is also a military weapon. There isn't much in the guard hall.

Why did Wang De get such a weapon?

"It was the giant city I returned to back then with the blueprints of the melta gun, so I had some connections in the city lord's mansion. Killing two psykers who invaded the mansion was not a big deal." Wang De's voice was cold, but Stopped abruptly.

Because, a long scarlet knife with several eyeballs suddenly appeared in front of him.

Li Yelai held a knife in one hand and looked down at Wang De.

"Old Bidden, would you like to say something again?"
