He believed that with his abilities, completing this task quickly and flawlessly would be a piece of cake.
However, after boarding a plane and leaving the borders of R Country for China, Kang Kang immediately noticed something unusual.
While R Country was practically teeming with cultivators to the point you could bump into one on any street, China was different.
The modernisation here was advancing rapidly, and it continued to develop at an astonishing pace.
Kang Kang had initially assumed that people here had largely abandoned cultivation, making it easy for him to infiltrate the region.
But he soon realised that wasn’t the case.
There’s an old Chinese saying: “The greatest hidden lie within the bustling city.” Kang Kang noticed that, although he couldn’t see people actively cultivating around him, there was always a mysterious feeling, a force, seemingly watching him at all times.
At first, this odd sensation was faint, but after meeting Le Le’s father, the feeling grew much stronger.
What shocked Kang Kang the most was that the mark Kawashima Chika had desperately left behind was actually on this unfathomably powerful man before him!
Initially, Kang Kang’s plan was simple: if he encountered the person who caused Kawashima Chika’s death and found their strength lacking, he could kill them on the spot, take their head, and return home.
After all, no matter how much effort went into gathering an enemy’s information, the ultimate goal was to defeat them.
Now, Kang Kang felt he had been far too naive. He didn’t even dare meet Le Le’s father’s eyes, fearing he might fall under some illusion.
Xu Fei had no idea his presence was affecting Kang Kang so deeply, but he was also growing anxious.
Using his clairvoyant ability, Xu Fei had noticed a thin thread Kang Kang had left on Le Le’s neck.
But he had no clue what the thread was for.
Moreover, Xu Fei feared that if this dragged on, things might take a turn for the worse.
So, he was also anxious, trying to figure out a way to get Kang Kang to leave.
Two people, each scheming in their minds, sat at the same table, and the atmosphere grew tense.
In the end, it was Kang Kang who first thought of a way to slip away.
He noticed the large crowd around them; it was peak dinner time, and if he didn’t act quickly, he might miss his chance.
“Uncle, I need to use the restroom.”
Kang Kang gave Xu Fei and Le Le an apologetic smile, then stood up and left.
Once he was out of Xu Fei’s sight, he doubled back.
At that moment, Kang Kang’s hands were continuously spewing transparent threads as fine as hair, his unique ability.
After all, strictly speaking, Kang Kang was a puppet doll, and most of his abilities were related to puppetry.
The threads in his hands were no ordinary ones. He had previously connected a thread to Le Le’s body.
Le Le seemed fine for now, but once Kang Kang decided to act, as long as the thread remained linked to her, she would instantly become a puppet under his control.
This was Kang Kang’s second plan.
