Chapter 255 A Bumpy Ride

11 P.M.

This period was the Lights-Out period in the Tian Estate.

Outside the main mansion, Dorian stood opposite Butler Sheng.

"We'll be back by morning. Keep an eye on the guests."

Butler Sheng nodded. "As you wish, Grandmaster."

The guests were the nurses and doctors.

Some of them were starting to get too mischievous.

When they first came, they followed the rules. But as the weeks went by, his patrol time also went up as well.

Now, he typically patrolled the hallways till 2 A.M before finally heading to cultivate.

Initially, he would get it done by 12 midnight.

But who knew that some had developed the habit of trying to sneak around of late? In particular, the one named Alice was quite the troublemaker.

He would always catch her out now and then. And she in turn would give him flimsy excuses.

Sheng was too lazy to pay attention to her, so many times; he wouldn't even show up but choose to play tricks on her like shutting the window loudly or doing something to scare her back to her sleeping quarters.

Of course, she typically thought someone was coming, which sent her fleeing.

Butler Sheng always felt like rolling his eyes when thinking of the lady's stuck-up behavior.

She always wore a frown on her face, looking like someone owed her money.

In fact, he had never seen her smile or have a normal expression on her face.

She was always bitter and angry for some reason.

Ugh... Because of her, his cultivating time was already reduced by 2 or 3 hours.

Why? Why couldn't she just sleep like an ordinary human?

Butler Sheng wore a long face when thinking of her. "Grandmaster, I will oversee things here."

"Hmmm." Dorian hummed, getting into the vehicle.

To get to the academy, they had to pass through any of the 3 teleportation spots.

If he wanted to head into the Academy alone, he could do it from his bedroom since he was the academy's head and owner.

But if he wanted to go on with others, they had to pass through any of the routes he created.

.

Vrrmmmmm~

The vehicles left the estate.

And almost immediately, Alice opened her eyes and pulled out from underneath her blanket.

She had been pretending to sleep.

[Mr... They have left. I don't know why they left, but I think they're on their way to do something shady!]

Very quickly, she deleted the message after it was confirmed to be sent out.

In an hour or so, she would begin snooping around.

Surely, these criminals shouldn't be back by then.

Bubuum.

Alice's heart drummed loudly in her ears, almost drowning her thoughts.

And while she waited for everyone in her sleeping quarters to fall asleep, her imagination continuously ran wild.

'Why are they going out around this time? Shady! Too shady! They must be going to meet up with other gangs to make deals and continue their illegal business!'

Alice could already see it now playing in her head.

And on the other side, the one she called Mr. Green also received her message.

But she wasn't the only one who sent him word.

He also had 2 killers in hidden corners watching the estate. Additionally, there were 3 others in one buckle outside the gates-community too.

One must know that it would be impossible for them to keep a lookout from their vehicle within the gated community.

First, this was a wealthy community. And even if a person was visiting and wanted to spend the night, it was always advisable for them to Park their vehicles within the estate or villa they were visiting.

The community streets at night were clear of any locomotives, except one was driving away.

That said, parking their buckles in the fated community streets while keeping a lookout would only be more suspicious.

That's why they had 2 killers sneak into the gated community in all black.

These killers were not to engage into the Tain estate but just stay hidden and keep a close watch without entering Dorian's territory.

Of course, it wasn't just him who was alerted about Dorian's movements.

.

Snake, A.K.A, Mr. Green, and several others were now standing humbly before their leader.

At the same time, a few hackers were working on the computers around them.

"Leader, we have eyes on the vehicle. Loading image now."

Clack. Clack. Clack. Clack.

The punching sounds of keyboards echoed within the room.

"There!"

Everyone could see Dorian's vehicle.

"Boss, I can't stay watching them for long, or I'll get noticed. Those guys at the Hacker's Society are good. Already, they've noticed our activity!" The lady hacker said.

In truth, she too was part of the hacker's society. She was using that identity for public purposes.

The hacker society was created by the government, recruiting hackers and gifted people from every corner of the nation.

Some of them got employed permanently to work with the nation's security, while others worked with big or small companies, securing their systems.

Of course there were still others who created software and worked with others to develop games.

In short, there were all sorts of gifted people in the hacker society.

And seeing that she had been discovered, she knew that if she continued, those from the hacker society would find their address.

The lady gritted her teeth on a mad aborted mission!

Abort! Abort!

If they found their location, you best believe that the Hacker Enforcers would be here any moment from now.

The Hacker Enforcers were those who captured rouge hackers like herself or hackers who broke the law.

Infiltrating natural security defenses was already a crime.

Not only will her identity as a rogue hacker be discovered, but they would also take her listener away.

From then on, the government would have eyes on her.

And soon, it wouldn't be long before they knew that she was part of a killer organization on the Darknet.

.

Pang!

She clicked the button fiercely, aborting the mission.

"Leader, that was the best I can do."

The leader wore an expressionless face, diverting his attention from the now black screen.

And soon, his eyes fell on Snake... A.K.A... Mr. Green.

"Where are they?"

"Leader, they're still on the Tian boy's tail."

Now those following the vehicle were their only hope of knowing what the Tain boy was up to.

The leader also thought so too.

Dorian must be heading out to meet with someone or send something.

Could it be that the powerful information that kept these prominent families back was not in Dorian's hands but in the hands of someone that he trusted?

A cold glint shone in the leader's eyes.

"Snake! Take more men and head out to join them. But be on the lookout for others trying to spy on the boy."

Yes! These prominent families should have their one people out there too.

The leader gripped his arrest, feeling that they were more and more power to the truth than before.

If they could find out Dorian's actions tonight, they might just get a shot at securing the secret information.

"Leave now! I want your eyes and ears on everything!"

"Yes, leader!"

Snake and the others nodded firmly. And just like that, they too got ready to leave the hotel they were at.

For now, they could get Dorian's location from their men following him at a safe distance.

It was already past 11, almost midnight.

And though the roads were very scanty and desolate, there were indeed quite a few vehicles and trucks still on the roads.

Snake quickly grabbed a few items before leaving the scene with the rest.

"Everyone, follow me!"

Tonight was bound to be a sleepless one.

Snake wore a stern expression on his usual playful face.

'Dorian D. Tian... What exactly are you up to?'

.

Vrmmm!

The 6-seater Limo drove out very steadily along the streets.

And inside, Raulin was on the wheel with Bewoh beside him.

As for Chan-Ki and Zhulyn, they sat in the next seats behind the duo.

And on the very last row of seats were Dorian and Haru.

Raulin and Bewoh couldn't help frowning every time they looked at the side mirrors.

"Grandmaster, someone is tailing us."

Already, they could see that those in the vehicle were foes.

Dorian didn't even bother opening his eyes while listening to the duo at the front.

And after investing some of his energy into the vehicle, he diverted his attention to Raulin.

"Race."

Ding!

Raulin's brain came on like a light switch. While everyone else only felt like dying instead.

'Grandmaster, how can you allow this madman to race with us in the vehicle?'

(:×^×:)

Subconsciously, they all reached for their seatbelts, checking if it was truly sturdy enough.

As for Raulin, he seemed not to see or feel their displeasure.

Hahahaha~

Ju-Jung!

The gears switched.

And soon, Raulin revealed a crazed smile on his face.

"Everyone, hang on to your heads... It's going to be a bumpy ride."

Woosh!

The limo took off.
