"This Zeng family girl has a significant identity; we should first check with Master Fei to see what his instructions are before taking any action."
Feeling that Zeng Xiaoi’s consciousness had completely slipped into unconsciousness, the man with the eye patch finally lifted her up with one hand as if she were a little chicken and slowly said to the man with the scarred face.
"It’s just the Zeng family, isn’t it? I don’t understand why Master Fei is so cautious; why don’t we just go and wipe them out?"
Hearing the words of the man with the eye patch, the scarred man suddenly looked depressed and said, "You see, this girl from the Zeng family keeps causing us trouble, and we’ve already lost so many n."
"Hmph, do you think Master Fei doesn’t know that?"
The man with the eye patch glared at the scarred man and snorted coldly, "Master Fei must have his reasons for acting this way."
"What reasons? In my opinion, the best thod is to directly annihilate the Zeng family, to end it once and for all. That’s the real way."
The scarred man still expressed so dissatisfaction.
"What do you know? In any case, that settles this matter. Don’t get any funny ideas; wait for Master Fei’s instructions."
The man with the eye patch gave the scarred man a cold look and, not bothering with his expression, turned his head and swept his gaze over a few n behind the scarred face, nodded, gestured, and waved his hand, saying, "Let’s go."
"Gentlen, it seems you may not be able to leave just yet."
But just as he finished speaking, a voice tinged with mockery suddenly erupted from behind them.
Upon hearing this voice, the expressions on several faces changed instantly.
Especially the scarred face and the man with the eye patch, who both abruptly looked exceedingly alard!
It was one thing for ordinary people not to notice soone suddenly appearing among them, being mildly stunned, wondering who made the unexpected voice, and from where this person had appeared.
But the scarred man and the man with the eye patch were no ordinary people!
They were both cultivators who had entered the martial path and reached the Bone Tempering Period, beings akin to immortals among ordinary folks!
Even though their guard had been quite relaxed and they had not been particularly vigilant, the fact that soone could appear behind them unnoticed was highly improper and abnormal!
The man with the eye patch’s gaze instinctively flashed toward the scarred face, wondering if the person who made the voice had been brought by him and had been there before, but upon seeing the expression on his face, he imdiately knew that wasn’t possible. This person had just appeared!
His gaze instantly turned towards the direction of the voice.
The gazes of the other few also turned towards the direction of the voice almost at the sa mont.
Lit by the faint moonlight, they saw a man in his twenties standing casually with his arms crossed in front of them, his eyes seeming to carry a hint of mockery as he looked at them.
"Who are you?"
Seeing that the person who had appeared behind them was just a man in his twenties, the scarred man’s expression relaxed sowhat, assuming a man so young would have limited strength, but still, he looked rather solemn, because to appear behind him and the man with the eye patch undetected ant that this man’s strength must at least be in the Bone Tempering Period.
He didn’t dare to take an opponent who might be in the Bone Tempering Period lightly.
"I’m just soone passing by, minding my own business," Xiao Yi said indifferently, pointing to Zeng Xiaoi, who was being held by the man with the eye patch, "However, unfortunately, she happens to be an acquaintance of mine, so please, gentlen, show so generosity, and put her down."
"Kid, who do you think you are? You think we’ll just put her down because you say so?"
The scarred face looked at Xiao Yi’s calm expression, the indifferent tone tinged with a hint of command, and he couldn’t help but feel a surge of anger, his face revealing a sneer as he mocked Xiao Yi.
"I don’t think I’m anyone special; I’m just . I simply hope that you will put her down. It’s up to you whether you do or not."
Xiao Yi looked at the scarred face impassively, completely unfazed by the intense expression and the fearso scar adding fierceness to his visage.
Almost as soon as the car stopped and he saw the police car beside them with its lights still on, and the small van up front, and heard the voice of a man not far away but not Zeng Xiaoi’s breath, he had a bad premonition. He didn’t expect the outco to be worse than he had imagined—that not only had Zeng Xiaoi’s people been wiped out, but she herself had fallen into soone else’s hands.
Upon arriving at the scene and clearly seeing what was happening, his confusion was instantly resolved. These criminals were rely ordinary in nature. He barely glanced at the scarred man and the one-eyed man before he imdiately determined that their strength was above the Bone Tempering Period.
It was evident that this ti, Zeng Xiaoi had fallen into their trap. With Zeng Xiaoi’s strength, even if she faced any one of these n, victory would not be guaranteed, let alone taking on both of them.
Therefore, it was only natural that Zeng Xiaoi faced total defeat and fell into enemy hands.
Still, he felt sowhat perplexed, never expecting that among this gang of criminals, there would be two at the Bone Tempering Period!
How formidable were such criminals, and what was their background?
Of course, these thoughts rely flashed through his mind. He wasn’t a policeman. Unlike Zeng Xiaoi, he didn’t have a detective’s occupational disease. These questions were irrelevant to him; they were what the police should ponder and seek answers to.
For him, the one thing that needed doing was to rescue Zeng Xiaoi.
"Boy, you’re quite arrogant!"
Listening to Xiao Yi’s nonchalant words, veiled with an indescribable threat, a hint of anger flashed in the eyes of the man with the eye patch. Although there was a certain fear in his heart for this young man who had suddenly appeared behind him, unsure of his strength, he was far from an ordinary individual. Ever since he had reached the Bone Tempering Period, his status within the organization had been prominent. Ordinary people treated him with utmost respect, almost worshipped like a deity.
When has anyone ever dared to threaten him like this?
Moreover, in his heart, he shared his comrade Scarface’s thoughts to so extent: how proficient could this young man be, even if he had been cultivating since he was in the womb?
At best, he would be like Zeng Xiaoi, impressive just for having reached the Bone Tempering Period.
Yet, he had made further progress into the Middle Tier of Bone Tempering with the help of Master Fei not long ago.
Not to ntion, beside him stood a brother who had entered the Bone Tempering Period over a decade ago, with profound Cultivation Power.
"However, arrogance requires capital; otherwise, one might not even know how they died!"
The man with the eye patch stared coldly at Xiao Yi.
"So it seems you are unwilling to let my friend go?"
Xiao Yi ignored the cold gaze and the threat in the man’s tone. To him, the two n before him could no longer cause even the slightest ripple in his heart.
It was just like the ti with the beardless, pale-faced man who thought he was at the peak of the High Tier Bone Tempering Period.
To him, they were rely ants. When has an elephant ever been seen jumping around because of an ant? Usually, an elephant wouldn’t even glance at an ant, only bothering to lazily stretch out its foot to crush it vehently only if it beca presumptuous enough to crawl onto its head, instantly turning it into dust.
He simply looked at the two n lazily, asking in a laid-back tone.
"Boy, you’re good; you have successfully infuriated !!"
Scarface watched Xiao Yi’s expression and finally flew into a rage. His look was cold and sinister as he stared at Xiao Yi, fists clenched tightly. The killing intent emanating from his body was now blatantly obvious.
This youngster before him was insufferable, daring to show such blatant contempt for them!
In all these years, when had they ever been so belittled?
Especially when he saw Xiao Yi’s lazy expression, seeming to not take him seriously at all, he felt nearly driven to madness, with his murderous intent skyrocketing to its peak!
"Boy, in all my years, you’re the most arrogant person I’ve co across. I hope your ability does not disappoint us!"
The man with the eye patch also emitted a sliver of murderous intent, his solitary eye staring intently at Xiao Yi like a venomous snake, having been thoroughly provoked by Xiao Yi’s arrogance and contempt.
Did he truly think himself a superb master? To demand his friend’s release with just a word?
Let alone that this girl surnad Zeng was very important to them, even if she were a complete stranger, they would definitely not release her simply because Xiao Yi commanded it. If that got out, would he, the One-eyed Wolf, still have a place in this world?
