The commotion from Long Xiaoyun rushing in was sowhat loud and abrupt. Lin Feng and Zhou Yang simultaneously looked up, their faces etched with confusion.
"What happened?" Lin Feng asked. He rarely saw Long Xiaoyun in such a panic. As the son of Lord Dragon, leader of the Qingzi Sect, Long Xiaoyun wasn't typically fazed by trivial matters.
"Speak!" Zhou Yang asked succinctly. He had been hanging out frequently at Fenghuo Bar recently and had a good relationship with Long Xiaoyun. Seeing Long Xiaoyun's anxious face, he too felt concerned.
The three girls, who had been happily chatting aside, fell silent when they saw the flustered Long Xiaoyun burst in. They weren't the type of naive won who couldn't read the room. They knew it was best to keep quiet at this mont to avoid disturbing Lin Feng and Zhou Yang's judgnt.
"I just received news that the Tianxing Club is on fire... My father is missing, and I can't reach him..." Long Xiaoyun said, his expression panicked.
"Tianxing Club?!" Lin Feng asked in surprise. "Isn't that the headquarters of the Qingzi Sect? How could it catch fire for no apparent reason?!"
"I don't know..." Long Xiaoyun replied, his face showing his panic. "The brother who inford said the fire spread suddenly, and he faintly heard gunshots. But the scene was chaotic, and they couldn't find the arsonist or the shooter. Also, my father is missing... I can't contact him at all... Brother Feng, Brother Zhou, I want to go there and check..."
Lin Feng and Zhou Yang exchanged a glance, then silently shook their heads in unison.
"This is definitely not an accident! Little Yun, I don't an to be discouraging, but you won't be of any use if you go there now!" Lin Feng said calmly to Long Xiaoyun. "Whoever dared to strike directly at the Tianxing Club is probably no ordinary person. If Lord Dragon was caught unprepared, he might have already t with disaster. If he managed to escape, finding him would only increase his risk of exposure! The Tianxing Club is a well-known, large entertainnt venue. With a sudden fire, it's likely already swarming with police. Going there to check the scene won't do any good... Besides, since they dared to move against Lord Dragon, you're probably one of their targets too!"
"Exactly..." Zhou Yang nodded, his brow furrowed. He spoke gravely to Long Xiaoyun, "Young Master Dragon, your priority right now is to protect yourself. Don't run around. Since they dared to attack Lord Dragon, they've likely already dispatched people to ambush and assassinate you on your way out!"
"Brother Feng, Brother Zhou, are you saying... soone targeted my father?" Long Xiaoyun's face turned deathly pale. "Then what should I do? I can't just stand by and watch sothing happen to him!"
"Little Yun, if you trust , listen!" Lin Feng said solemnly, looking Long Xiaoyun straight in the eyes. "Your situation is very dangerous. After you leave this private room, imdiately change your clothes, put on sunglasses, and apply so simple makeup to alter your appearance. Find soone you absolutely trust, leave with the other departing guests, and check into a large hotel and lay low... Zhou Yang and I will go to the Tianxing Club to check things out..."
Hearing Lin Feng's words, Long Xiaoyun looked flustered. "Brother Feng, are you saying... they're very likely to co after ?!"
"Very likely!" Zhou Yang interjected gravely. "Young Master Dragon, listen to Brother Feng. Disguise yourself and lie low for a while. Wait for Brother Feng and to confirm the situation, then we'll contact you... Rember, they might have people around you. Don't contact anyone unless you trust them completely!"
"I... I understand..." Long Xiaoyun grew increasingly flustered. Looking at Lin Feng and Zhou Yang, his voice was tinged with a sob. "Brother Feng, Brother Zhou, you two are the ones I trust most... I beg you, you must find out what happened to my father!"
"We will!" Lin Feng responded in a deep voice. "Let's go now! Little Yun, go hide first... Qingyi, escort Tang Rou and Xiuyue ho... Zhou Yang and I will go to the Tianxing Club to check the situation!"
Xue Qingyi glanced at Lin Feng, then at Tang Rou, and finally nodded silently. Under the circumstances, she didn't want to cause any unpleasantness with Lin Feng that might complicate matters.
"Lin Feng, you won't be in danger, will you...?" Tang Rou, having understood most of what was happening, worriedly clutched Lin Feng's hand. She was terrified sothing would happen to him.
"Tang Rou, relax... Not many people in this world can harm . Besides, I'm just going to check out the scene; nothing will happen!" Lin Feng replied confidently with a smile. "Be good, go ho, and get so sleep. Don't worry about !"
"Mm..." Tang Rou looked at Lin Feng and nodded obediently. The worry in her eyes didn't lessen despite his reassurance. However, Tang Rou was accustod to following Lin Feng's orders and chose not to do anything that would trouble him at this mont.
After the private room door opened, Long Xiaoyun followed Lin Feng's advice, concealing himself and silently rging into the crowd. Carried by the surging crowd, he quickly disappeared into the night. Xue Qingyi, Zhu Xiuyue, and Tang Rou also left Fenghuo Bar, driving the Audi A4 Lin Feng had borrowed from Xie Nan.
Finally, Lin Feng and Zhou Yang got into the black Rolls-Royce Phantom and sped towards the Tianxing Club.
Fenghuo Bar and Tianxing Club were separated by more than twenty kiloters. With Zhou Yang's driving skills, the Rolls-Royce Phantom sped down the highway like a phantom. The journey of over twenty kiloters took them only a few minutes.
Less than five minutes later, the Rolls-Royce Phantom reached a spot about a kiloter from the Tianxing Club. From afar, Lin Feng and Zhou Yang could see a massive building engulfed in a raging inferno. Under the night sky, the crimson blaze seed to set half the heavens afire.
Further ahead, the road beca extrely congested. The traffic jam caused by the fire was severe, exacerbated by nurous onlookers and their vehicles. After advancing a few hundred more ters, Zhou Yang's Rolls-Royce Phantom ca to a complete stop, hemd in by other cars.
"Let's get out. We can't drive any further..." Zhou Yang said casually to Lin Feng. He then stepped out of the car first, nonchalantly abandoning the eight-million-dollar supercar on the road. His attitude was as if he were discarding an eighty-dollar second-hand bicycle—utterly cavalier.
"Let's go!" Lin Feng wasn't one to fuss over such things, especially in an ergency; he didn't give the car a second thought. With a brief acknowledgnt, he too jumped out of the Rolls-Royce. Moving nimbly, he and Zhou Yang weaved through the traffic, speeding up as they quickly neared the Tianxing Club.
Just as Lin Feng had predicted, dozens of fire trucks, police cars, and ambulances had already surrounded the Tianxing Club. Nurous hoses were spraying water and foam onto the building... Strangely, despite the intense blaze, remarkably few injured people were being carried out.
Lin Feng and Zhou Yang were observing the situation when they suddenly heard a puzzled female voice question them from behind.
"Lin Feng?! What are you doing here?!"
