When Ronald first noticed that soone had been secretly watching him, he was worried that one of the supporting characters or one of the heroines from the plot had caught him red-handed.
However, the person who had revealed herself was soone he had never seen before...
And she seed to be much stronger than Ye Fan?
Ronald didn't understand how soone this strong had suddenly appeared this early on in the story.
But after thinking about it for a few seconds, Ronald just assud that the person he had encountered just now was just one of the heroine's friend who wasn't important to any of the plots whatsoever, so he decided to just continue on with his original plan.
"Don't make ask you again, who the hel-" Before Ronald could finish his sentence, he was suddenly interrupted.
"Don't talk to you lowlife scum." The woman retorted back at Ronald and then turned her head to face the Princess.
"Princess Sophia, are you alright? Did this scumbag do anything weird to you?" The woman asked the Princess with a concerned voice.
She had considered Princess Sophia to be her best friend ever since they've first t during their childhoods, so the mont she heard that her very own best friend had gotten kidnapped, she imdiately contacted the Queen of the Leighton family in order to locate Princess Sophia and rush to her aid.
"Don't worry about Sylvia! I suggest you should just forget about and run away, this guy is extrely strong!" Even though Princess Sophia was glad that her best friend had showed up in order to save her, she was afraid that sothing bad might happen to Sylvia.
Although Princess Sophia knew that Sylvia was extrely strong, she was worried that Sylvia might end up suffering the sa fate as Ye Fan back at the abandoned factory.
"Thank you for your concerns, but don't worry about ." Sylvia knew that her best friend was concerned about her getting injured and reassured her that everything was going to be okay.
Even though she considered Princess Sophia to be her best friend, she still kept a huge secret from her.
So what was the secret that Sylvia had been hiding throughout her entire life?
The secret was that she was a cultivator.
So despite the fact that her best friend was worried that she was going to get injured, Sylvia was absolutely confident that she could easily subdue the kidnapper and rescue her best friend easily.
"Let go of my best friend now." Sylvia pointed her glowing red sword at Ronald and gave him a warning.
Even though she was confident that she could kill Ronald at any ti, she didn't want her best friend to witness the death of a human being in front of her very own eyes.
Since her best friend was the Princess of the Leighton family, Sylvia knew that her best friend had been pampered throughout her entire lifeti and rarely saw the dark side of human nature until now.
"And what if I don't? Do you think your red glowing sword is going to intimidate anyone here?" Ronald smirked and said in a mocking voice.
"Then don't say that I didn't warn you." Sylvia then instantly closed the gap between them and then threw in a punch directly at Ronald's chest.
However, to her surprise, the kidnapper completely caught her fist right before she could hit him.
"Why did you even bring a sword to begin with when you aren't going to use it?" Ronald looked directly into Sylvia's eyes and said nacingly.
"..." Although Sylvia didn't say anything, she was absolutely shocked by the fact that Ronald had sohow managed to catch her hand despite her going at full speed.
At first, she thought that the person who had kidnapped her best friend was soone who was extrely weak and thought that the reason why the kidnapper knew that soone was secretly watching him was because he noticed the sword glowing in the dark.
But now, she realized that clearly wasn't the case and most likely the person who kidnapped her best friend was actually a cultivator who hid very deeply.
So in an attempt to quickly turn things around, she quickly tried to use her sword to slash Ronald's head off.
But Ronald used his other hand to directly catch and firmly gripped onto the blade of the sword right before it managed to reach his neck.
"H-how?" Sylvia was absolutely shocked by the fact that Ronald had managed to hold onto the sharp ends of the sword without even being hard by it.
Although she didn't know about the origins of this sword, from what her sect master had told her, it had the ability to easily obliterate most of the early stage cultivators that even ca into contact with it.
"Why are you surprised? Never t soone stronger than you?" Ronald looked down at Sylvia's face and smirked.
Afterwards, Ronald yanked the sword out of Sylvia's hands and quickly used his feet to kick her in the stomach, causing her to get slightly pushed back.
He then quickly threw the sword right in front of Sylvia and then quickly vanished before Sylvia could even react in ti.
After coming back to her senses, Sylvia quickly grabbed her sword again and hurriedly looked around for a few seconds to try and find Ronald before realizing that both Ronald and Princess Sophia was absolutely nowhere to be found.
***
After arriving at a cave right next to the mountain with the Princess, Ronald looked around the cave to make sure that they were at the right place, and then placed the Princess down.
"You're lucky that I didn't plan on killing your friend there." Ronald said to the Princess and then went outside of the cave in order to grab so sticks to make a campfire.
At first, Ronald thought about giving Sylvia a severe beating just like he had done to Ye Fan the day before, but Ronald decided to scratch that idea out of his head and just decided to leave Sylvia alone.
After all, his main purpose for kidnapping Princess Sophia was to just make the heroines see how terrible of a person he was, not to beat up random people for no absolute reason.
The only reason why he had beaten up Ye Fan to begin with was just to get payback for everything he's done to him in the previous life.
"..." Princess Sophia silently looked at Ronald while he started to head outside, and although she was grateful that Ronald decided not to hurt Sylvia, she still couldn't help but think to herself why Ronald, despite the fact that Sylvia had attacked him first, had decided to spare Sylvia's life and even let her go off scratch free.
And not only that, but thinking about it now, not once had Ronald even tried to kill anyone besides the tiger that was about to eat her despite the fact that he was targetted by so many people.
Thinking back to what Ronald had said back at the abandoned factory about being hired to kill Ye Fan and having a grudge against him, with all of the strength and speed that he had displayed so far, couldn't he have easily killed Ye Fan right in front of the cops the mont they appeared?
But yet all he did was just toyed around with the cops for a bit before escaping into the woods.
Although Princess Sophia knew that a lot of strong people loved toying around with opponents that were much weaker than them, she knew that nobody would go through such great lengths trying to hide deep in the forest in order to just to keep their opponents alive for a few more days...
Unless if their original goal was sothing entirely different...
'If he doesn't want to actually kill Ye Fan, then what could his goal for kidnapping be?'
'And why did he only repeatedly beat up Ye Fan yet he decided to either knock everyone else unconscious or spare everyone else?'
'Also why doesn't he wear a mask whenever we're alone, isn't he afraid that I'll expose him?'
'Weird, there's definitely sothing more than what ets the eye...'
