Ye Chenfeng’s back was drenched in sweat; Thousand Faces was truly terrifying.
"God, I actually brushed past such a terrifying assassin; it’s really thrilling!" Kevin Nickmit said, heart still racing.
"So terrifying!" Chen Xijun also realized the gravity of the situation.
"Help me switch to the second place he went to after he left the Love at First Sight restaurant yesterday," Ye Chenfeng said, his gaze flickering.
The scene suddenly changed to the Jiang Group.
However, the screen froze there, and Thousand Faces disappeared. About ten minutes later, he left the Jiang Group.
"What’s going on?" Ye Chenfeng asked, and Chen Xijun, too, looked on curiously.
Kevin Nickmit had said that he controlled all the cameras in the city.
"I forgot to mention that this is a special case. Private surveillance systems one have no connection with others, so naturally, I can’t capture them!" Kevin Nickmit said with an embarrassed smile.
Ye Chenfeng and Chen Xijun looked at each other. The cameras not capturing footage was no longer the focus, the key point was that the assassin, Thousand Faces, had gone to the Jiang Group.
Anyone with a brain could instantly understand what was happening; Thousand Faces was hired by the Jiang Group to kill Ye Chenfeng.
Chen Xijun looked at Ye Chenfeng and asked, "How did you know that the assassin was going to kill you?"
"Someone told me; otherwise, how would I be aware of such a terrifying assassin? I wouldn’t even know if he struck me out of the blue. If there’s anyone to blame, it’s King Yan for not taking my life!" Ye Chenfeng said with a laugh.
Of course, this brought a roll of the eyes from Chen Xijun: "Lucky you’re okay, otherwise you wouldn’t be able to brag."
"Haha, are you concerned about me?" Ye Chenfeng suddenly asked.
Chen Xijun showed an embarrassed expression: "I don’t have the slightest intention of caring about you; it’d be best if the assassin killed you."
Ye Chenfeng’s mouth curled into a smile: "I just love how you’ll never admit it."
"Get lost, focus on the task at hand!" Chen Xijun snapped.
It was such a critical time, and yet Ye Chenfeng was still joking around.
Following Ye Chenfeng’s commands, Kevin Nickmit checked several other places where Thousand Faces had been.
Ye Chenfeng and Chen Xijun were surprised to discover that the assassin, Thousand Faces, had essentially been following Ye Chenfeng all along, appearing at places like Chu Corporation. Every appearance was with a new face, completely transformed, totally unrecognizable.
This face-changing technique was absolutely magical, not like other techniques that required the creation of facial masks. It seemed as if he had some secret technique, a direct transformation.
This seemed to confirm what Phoenix had said: "Thousand Faces could appear in front of you at any place, any time, with any face, and then kill you."
He must have noticed that Ye Chenfeng was on guard, so he never found a good opportunity to strike.
However, when near the Royal Garden, the assassin, Thousand Faces, turned and left again, which was in the afternoon, and he never appeared again afterward.
Chen Xijun and Kevin Nickmit were puzzled by this, unable to understand why he had left.
The residence should have been an excellent place for an assassination, especially given his abilities, which would significantly increase the success rate.
Only Ye Chenfeng knew what was going on: Thousand Faces was wary of the Chief God of Killing.
Unlike being out in the open, both Death Angel and Thousand Faces operated in the shadows. Naturally, Thousand Faces felt apprehensive.
"Kevin Nickmit, hurry and confirm his current location, I want to send him a big gift. Let him know my life isn’t so easy to take!" Ye Chenfeng sneered.
Soon, Kevin Nickmit had confirmed the location, a place Ye Chenfeng hadn’t expected.
It was around the Daxing Pharmaceutical Factory District, close to Shen Yuqin’s home.
"What is he doing at Yuqin’s house?" Ye Chenfeng was puzzled.
"Should I get ready and encircle the place?" Chen Xijun asked.
Ye Chenfeng immediately refused, "No need, if you take people there it might just startle the snake! In front of this kind of person, you know ordinary people might not even be enough to scratch an itch."
"Then I will go with you, I’m worried about you," Chen Xijun insisted on going.
"Alright, maybe you can be of help!" Ye Chenfeng said.
"Right, Captain Chen, remember to grab two sets of equipment!" Ye Chenfeng said.
Then Ye Chenfeng spoke to Kevin Nickmit, "Is it possible to transfer your tracking data to your computer? We’re going to meet him now."
"Of course no problem!" Kevin Nickmit appeared as if underestimating him.
The trio sped off in the car driven by Ye Chenfeng.
On the way, Ye Chenfeng sent out a text message. Chen Xijun noticed his subtle move but didn’t ask aloud.
"You said this assassin changes his face each time he appears; he uses face-changing techniques, right? What exactly are these face-changing techniques?" Chen Xijun asked curiously.
"’Yi’ means to change, and ’rong’ pertains to appearance. The so-called face-changing technique is the technology to change one’s appearance. Science can create many miracles. Today, the ancient art of face-changing is not so rare. It has even become a specialized technology, also known as ’sculpting makeup.’
Another type of face-changing technique involves high-tech biotechnology, evolved from cloning technology, where your genes are processed to enable such advanced face-changing. This type of face-changing is used on special agents and is only available in certain countries possessing this technology.
However, these two advanced methods are too cumbersome. There’s a simpler form of face-changing that merely requires a mold, such as a silicone face mask."
Chen Xijun was stunned, Ye Chenfeng could speak so much about face-changing techniques.
"So which type of face-changing technique does this assassin use?" Chen Xijun asked curiously.
"He uses the truly high-level kind, almost like cloning a person. It can not only change a person’s face but also alter their body shape. It could be called a secret technique or even evil techniques, somewhat similar to the Ninjitsu used by Japanese ninjas, but definitely far more advanced," Ye Chenfeng explained.
"That’s amazing! Jiang Family actually hires such a terrifying assassin to deal with you!" Chen Xijun’s mouth hung open slightly, her eyes filled with indescribable shock.
"Exactly!" Ye Chenfeng helplessly said, inwardly adding, "He’s one of the strongest Death Angels."
The car moved fast, and soon they reached the vicinity of Shen Yuqin’s new house.
"Is the little guy’s location still there?" Ye Chenfeng asked.
"Yes, about three hundred meters from us," Kevin Nickmit said.
Ye Chenfeng nodded, took a set of equipment, and said, "From here on, you two follow my command."
