Chapter 2969: Tong Yao

“You’re courting death!” Dong Hu cursed angrily!

Dong Hu turned his head and found the two cultivators hiding and trembling!

“You two bastards, I paid you to come here, just to have you watch the show?” Dong Hu roared.

He spends his days in the underground and naturally understands the horror of cultivators.

But there’s one thing: if a cultivator uses mana in this city and gets spotted by drones or surveillance devices, they’ll be punished immediately! If it results in casualties or property damage, they’ll face extermination by ultra combat robots.

However, before coming here, Dong Hu had already checked and found that there was practically no surveillance around this area.

After all, it’s the city edge with no important facilities, so surveillance and combat power are sparsely distributed.

“Master, he!” one of the cultivators said, looking at Ye Luo in fear, hesitant to speak.

“What’s wrong with him? Doesn’t he have two legs? Doesn’t he have one head?” Dong Hu shouted.

“No, Master, he’s a cultivator! And a very powerful one!” the other cultivator said fearfully.

Suddenly, Dong Hu squinted his eyes.

“So you’re just another lowlife, huh? That makes it easier!”

With that, he freed up his other hand from Fang Fang, pulled out a mini camera, and threw it into the air.

“Now the city’s war preparedness department can see what’s happening here. If you make a move against me, you’ll be punished and expelled from this city immediately!”

Dong Hu, dealing with cultivators all day, naturally understood the tricks involved.

Ye Luo laughed, “I haven’t made a move against you! I’m just stopping you from making a move against her!”

As he spoke, Ye Luo let go of his grip!

“Heh, is that so? Well, just wait and watch the live broadcast then! Anyway, the war preparedness department won’t bother with such things!” Dong Hu sneered.

It was clear that the war preparedness department was mostly run by robots; they only react to program-triggered incidents.

This was something Ye Luo needed to be cautious about.

But does Ye Luo really have no way out? Certainly not!

For instance, the power of Divine Sense! Of course, the City of Technology has devices to detect divine sense, just like the camera, which monitors ordinary cultivators.

However, Ye Luo’s divine sense has grown powerful enough that, compared to his, even the divine sense of Martial Emperor is insignificant!

Thus, this camera naturally wouldn’t detect his divine sense.

Just as Dong Hu was about to act, he suddenly found himself unable to move, and then he spat out a mouthful of blood, staring at Ye Luo in shock.

His subordinates rushed over to support him, but they had no idea what had happened.

“You dare to make a move against me!” Dong Hu said fearfully.

“You’re clearly falsely accusing me! I didn’t do anything, and everyone saw it!” Ye Luo said innocently.

Just those two cultivators did not dare to meet Ye Luo’s eyes, knowing he had used divine sense to injure Dong Long.

“Let’s go!” Dong Long said, his face pale as he walked out.

Ye Luo squinted, indeed, the surveillance department was robots, otherwise, they would have suspected Ye Luo by now.

Yet even if they did suspect him, Ye Luo wasn’t worried.

After all, he has a legal identity in the city and a VIP card, and without evidence, they wouldn’t cause him trouble.

Moreover, people like Dong Hu are considered scum of the city. In the eyes of the city’s high authorities, his status isn’t necessarily higher than that of cultivators, and they might even wish them dead.

As Dong Hu and his men left, Fang Fang did not relax but appeared more worried.

“Dong Hu is vicious and won’t let us off! What should we do now?”

Ye Luo chuckled silently, but he certainly wouldn’t tell her the truth.

“How about this, since you’re renting anyway, why not stay at my place? I have an extra room!” Ye Luo suggested with a smile.

Although Ye Luo’s house is only over two hundred square meters, with the courtyard and some additional areas gifted, it seems the measurements here are larger compared to Earth, making his two hundred square meters equivalent to possibly three hundred square meters on Earth. Having more people stay over isn’t an issue!

“But if that’s the case, my commute will be much farther. If I’m late three times, I might get fired!” Fang Fang said worriedly.

Ye Luo knew, even though the city has self-driving cars, no one can predict if there’d be traffic jams during rush hours.

“Then I’ll move into the company’s dorm for now. Although the environment is worse, at least it’s safer!” Fang Fang decided.

Since she insisted, Ye Luo could only let her be.

Back at the villa, Shadow and Luo Xue were peaceful, enjoying TV!

As for those guards, they were diligent, still watching over the villa, which reassured him. He thought for a moment and stepped out.

What he naturally needed to do was find a job!

The problem was, he was somewhat at a loss, realizing that the only job he could do might be security! After all, he couldn’t handle jobs requiring high technical skills.

Just then, the phone in his pocket rang.

This time, before he could answer, the phone automatically activated the short-range teleportation feature; supposedly when two people are within a specific distance range, this function can be triggered.

Immediately, a wild yet stunningly beautiful woman appeared before him, the same woman he had raced with that day.

“You don’t even thank me after I helped you?” Her voice was slightly husky, sounding pleasant.

“I really forgot. How about I treat you to dinner?” Ye Luo replied with a smile.

The woman didn’t respond, instead sizing up Ye Luo with evident admiration in her eyes.

“Didn’t expect the outfit to suit you well! Since I helped you, treating me to dinner is only fair!”

Then the two got into the car, this time driven by the girl, in her private car, and quickly parked in front of the café from before.

Ye Luo was a bit helpless. She knew this place, but someone able to afford luxury cars shouldn’t come to a place like this for a meal.

“Before you treat me to dinner, wouldn’t you want to know my name?” she suddenly asked.

Although her tone remained cold, there was a hint of playfulness in her expression.

“Oh, I’m Ye Luo. May I ask your name, Miss?”

“Tong Yao!”

After saying that, she got out of the car.
