Xu Fei saw that the people from the Hengjiang family were far too easy to deal with, wiped out by a mere mist barrier.
This eased his mind somewhat, and he turned to Kawashima Yosuke beside him.
“Hold the line for now, I’m heading west to check things out, I’m not entirely at ease.”
After Xu Fei spoke, Kawashima Yosuke, thrilled at still being useful, immediately patted his chest.
“Don’t worry! Leave this to me, I guarantee when you return, we’ll just need to plan the victory feast!”
Seeing his confidence, Xu Fei didn’t linger and left.
Xu Fei’s temporary delegation of authority had its own purpose: to keep Kawashima Yosuke under the illusion that he still had value, preventing him from overthinking.
As expected, Kawashima Yosuke, reluctant to oppose Xu Fei, took his orders seriously.
Taking command, he shouted, “Listen up, those are mostly Hengjiang family members opposite, fight with all you’ve got, every head can be traded for a bounty with me!”
As the saying goes, great rewards inspire brave men, especially since Kawashima Yosuke stressed the bounty had no limit.
This sparked the enthusiasm of the entire Kawashima family, who eagerly charged forward.
After Xu Fei left, the thick fog at the ancestral site cleared somewhat, still obscuring clear vision but much better than before.
Ignoring the fighting behind him, Xu Fei headed straight west.
He had a nagging feeling of a threatening presence there, his greatest concern.
“This should be the place, but why’s there nothing?”
Arriving, Xu Fei didn’t immediately use his clairvoyant vision, as this was still within his formation’s range, where it wasn’t needed.
But now, he found it odd, he could sense someone’s presence, yet saw nothing.
“Guess I’ll have to use clairvoyant vision after all!”
Xu Fei sighed helplessly, activating it, only to realise it wasn’t his fault.
Someone was hiding in a hollow of a nearby tree.
“Something’s off! This guy looks extremely weak!”
Under clairvoyant vision, Xu Fei saw the person was impossibly frail, on the brink of death!
This didn’t match the formidable enemy he’d sensed at all!
Without hesitation, Xu Fei rushed over and pulled the person out.
He was stunned, the figure was covered in horrific wounds, their life force completely drained.
Only a faint thread kept them gasping for breath.
“Don’t panic! I’ll save you!”
Most would be helpless in this situation, but Xu Fei was no ordinary man.
With his yin-yang power and Heavenly Dao Needle, even someone near death could still be saved.
