“What’s going on? Are you a monster? You…”
Before the boss could finish, Xu Fei was already in front of him, a silver needle shooting out with a whoosh, striking a vital point.
Xu Fei had been using his clairvoyant vision the whole time, otherwise he couldn’t have kept up with the van on the high-speed road.
So, after dismounting his bike, he immediately spotted the gun hidden at the boss’s waist through his clairvoyance.
Dodging the bullet so easily earlier was entirely because his clairvoyant vision had already tracked the bullet’s trajectory.
Combined with Xu Fei’s speed, evading it was quite simple.
After dealing with the group, Xu Fei confidently checked the area, ensuring no one was left alive.
After all, these people had seen him, and though he was still masked, Xu Fei had to be thorough to avoid any risks.
Confirming no survivors, he turned to the van and saw Kawashima Miki, still unconscious in the back.
Kawashima Miki was sleeping soundly. Xu Fei used his clairvoyance to check her vital signs, which were stable, then pricked her philtrum with a silver needle.
In no time, Kawashima Miki woke up.
Seeing herself lying in a van, and recalling the masked black-clad figure she’d seen before, she instantly realised she’d been kidnapped.
Then she saw Xu Fei beside her and said in surprise, “Could it be… you saved me?”
Xu Fei gave a faint smile.
“I reckon there’s no one else awake around here but you and me, right?”
His words indirectly confirmed he was Kawashima Miki’s saviour.
As if remembering something, Xu Fei quickly explained, “Let’s be clear, these guys weren’t actors I hired, so don’t think this is some cheap pick-up tactic!”
Hearing his explanation, Kawashima Miki couldn’t help but burst out laughing.
“No worries on that front, I know exactly who these guys are!”
Xu Fei grew curious, waiting for her to continue.
Kawashima Miki pointed to a mountain ghost mask left on the seat beside her, “These are from the Qiushan family. The mask is a mountain ghost, their family’s totem and emblem, I’d never mistake it!”
From Kawashima Miki, Xu Fei learned that the Qiushan and Kawashima families had long-standing conflicts, making them sworn enemies.
This explained why the Qiushan family would send people to kidnap her.
If they succeeded, they’d surely use her life to blackmail the Kawashima family into giving up something.
“By the way, which family are you from? Why haven’t I seen you before?”
In the entire country of R, only those from ancient families like the Kawashimas could become cultivators, so she asked.
Hearing this, Xu Fei decided to hide nothing and said directly, “I’m not from any family. I’m from Huaxia, not a local.”
