Xiao Zheng stood in place, frowning in thought for a while, then examined the surroundings, but found no clues.
"Could it be that the girl left on her own?" A thought erged in Xiao Zheng’s mind, but he quickly shook his head. That was unlikely.
Xiao Zheng had great confidence in his judgnt; she was just an ordinary human girl, not a hidden powerful figure.
But if he didn’t think that way, the situation seed contradictory. Why would a mysterious force abduct the girl and not make a move on him? Wasn’t that odd?
After all, he was the more important one.
"Forget it." After thinking for a while and getting nowhere, Xiao Zheng decided to stop pondering the matter.
The most important thing now was to rescue Evil Eyes. He had already expended considerable effort and ti for this unfamiliar girl, so he had done his best.
Xiao Zheng was not so selfless as to ignore the safety of Evil Eyes to search for the girl’s whereabouts.
"I’ll co back and take a look after things are settled here." Xiao Zheng thought to himself.
After that, he left the forest and made his way back to the Sky Net Base.
Seeing Xiao Zheng’s return, everyone heaved a sigh of relief and couldn’t help but gather around to ask, "Mr. Xiao, where did you go last night? We were so worried! We heard that there was quite a bit of trouble between the vampire and werewolf territories."
Xiao Zheng smiled. It seed last night’s events had already spread, and even Long Qie and Titan knew about it. He said, "Let’s go to the eting room."
In the eting room, Long Qie, Titan, Catherine, and dici each took their seats, while Xiao Zheng sat at the head position.
Everyone had many doubts in their minds. Seeing their expressions, Xiao Zheng solemnly recounted the events of last night briefly.
"What?"
Long Qie, upon hearing that Prince Harren was so despicable as to control and use Evil Eyes, widened his eyes in fury.
Bam!
Long Qie slamd his fist down on the table, gritting his teeth. "That old dog Harren insulted my brother; I swear I’ll kill him!"
Titan, usually more composed, couldn’t hold back either, shouting angrily, "ssing with us Sky Net, he’ll definitely pay the price!"
Xiao Zheng nodded, his gaze slightly cold, and said, "Since I established Sky Net, no one has ever bullied us like this. We must retaliate harshly this ti!"
Catherine asked, "Mr. Xiao, do you already have a plan?"
As soon as she spoke, everyone’s eyes turned to Xiao Zheng, filled with inquiry.
Xiao Zheng said, "I plan to bring Long Qie, Titan, and Ten Killings, and launch a surprise attack on Harrenhal Castle to rescue Evil Eyes."
"What?" Catherine imdiately disagreed, saying, "Mr. Xiao, that’s too dangerous! You were there just last night. Harren is surely prepared by now. Going again would an falling into his trap, and it will be very dangerous."
dici, having been gathering intelligence in Europe, knew a bit about Prince Harren and said, "Prince Harren is extrely powerful, with many experts under his command besides Evil Eyes, each one terrifying in might."
Xiao Zheng smiled and said, "I am aware this mission is fraught with danger, but I have no choice. I don’t want my brother to suffer more."
Everyone felt warm-hearted. They were wholly dedicated to following Xiao Zheng precisely because he never abandoned any of them in China and treated them sincerely.
However, because of Xiao Zheng’s earnest treatnt, they were even more reluctant to let him enter such danger. Long Qie now also advised, "Mr. Xiao, just leave this matter to Titan and ."
Titan chid in from the side, "Since acquiring the resources of dicine King Valley, Long Qie and I have advanced rapidly. Together, we can certainly handle Evil Eyes."
Xiao Zheng shook his head, "In Harrenhal Castle, Evil Eyes is just one among them; there are even more terrifying people. Without , going there would be suicide."
Long Qie, Titan, and the others were about to speak when Xiao Zheng raised his hand and said, "Enough, I’ve made my decision, and it can’t be changed. Go make preparations."
Everyone was helpless, although unwilling for Xiao Zheng to go into danger, they couldn’t go against his wishes and went to prepare.
Long Qie, Titan, and dici quickly left the eting room, leaving only Catherine and Xiao Zheng.
"Mr. Xiao, are you really going?" Catherine asked softly.
Her heart had long been entwined with Xiao Zheng, so she couldn’t help but worry for him.
Xiao Zheng reassured, "Don’t worry too much. Although this trip is fraught with danger, getting out safely is manageable. I am, after all, the man who defeated that monster, Beihai Venerable."
Catherine remained silent for a long ti before saying, "Then... you must be careful and not act recklessly. If things don’t look right, retreat imdiately, okay?"
Xiao Zheng nodded, "I promise you." Then he smiled and said, "Don’t overthink it. This mission is to rescue Evil Eyes, not to have a death battle with Harren. As soon as we rescue Evil Eyes, we’ll leave imdiately, so it’s not that dangerous."
Catherine certainly didn’t take Xiao Zheng’s words at face value. Harren was a renowned powerhouse among vampires, with a formidable entourage – hardly easy to confront.
But she was a wise woman, not prone to weeping and wailing like others might. She just nodded quietly, supporting Xiao Zheng from behind.
Sky Net operated with high efficiency. Before long, preparations were complete; Long Qie, Titan, and Ten Killings stood in the square, their aura overwhelming.
Xiao Zheng scanned them with a glance, nodded in satisfaction, and then shouted, "Let’s go."
Everyone imdiately boarded a helicopter and flew towards Harrenhal Castle.
The helicopter was swift, and soon they arrived at the vast ancient forest. But as they approached the forest, the helicopter suddenly stopped its rotors and plumted to the ground.
"What’s going on?"
Everyone was utterly shocked.
However, being experts, they remained calm in the face of the sudden incident, leaping from the helicopter and landing on the ground.
Boom!
The helicopter hit the ground and exploded into a fireball. Gale force winds and raging flas completely destroyed the surrounding woodland.
Fortunately, the helicopter wasn’t flying very high, so everyone landed safely. Yet looking at the helicopter that crashed and exploded in the distance, their faces were grim.
