In a corner outside the crowd, a figure dressed in a black robe had been observing since Li Shishi appeared. At this mont, as he watched Liu Hun and Alice leave with Li Shishi, the corners of his lips under the black robe curled slightly, and he softly murmured, "Liu Hun, this might be a taste of your own dicine. I hope you enjoy this gift."
If Liu Hun were present at the scene, he would easily recognize this mysterious figure as Qian Zhongshu, whom he had encountered in the City of Death!
As Liu Hun and Alice drove towards the villa with Li Shishi, they ca across so clothing stores, and Liu Hun made sure to buy a few things for Li Shishi.
After purchasing these items, they returned to the villa. Alice tidied up a room for Li Shishi. She was utterly exhausted by now, and finally not having to live in the elents, she quickly fell asleep.
"Xiao Ai, why did you decide to help this little girl?" At this mont, Liu Hun and Alice were sitting in the villa lobby. Liu Hun looked up and asked Alice in a deep voice.
"Xiao Liu-ge, isn’t it good for us to help her? Such a poor little girl, just like I was back then." Alice said worriedly to Liu Hun; she seed to fear that this incident might upset him.
"Do you know the girl’s true identity? I understand your kindness, but sotis we mustn’t help blindly. We didn’t need to bring her ho for this matter; we could have just sent her to an orphanage." Liu Hun took a deep breath. He wasn’t blaming Alice, for he was the one who initiated this from the beginning. He just wanted Alice to rember; this ti he noticed the problem only because he was there. If he’s not with her next ti, Alice could be in danger.
"What, does this little girl have another identity?" At this mont, Alice’s face turned pale with worry as she looked at Liu Hun.
Regarding Liu Hun’s current situation, Alice knew sothing too, and she didn’t want her kindness to bring any danger to Liu Hun. In this world, nothing was more important than Liu Hun, and this was Alice’s simplest thought.
"The girl herself shouldn’t be much of an issue. However, while treating her injuries, I accidentally discovered sothing else in her body. This thing was evidently planted by soone with a motive, and the ultimate target might be . So we must be cautious." Liu Hun took a deep breath and remarked with so lant.
Li Shishi, indeed an adorable little girl, was very much liked by Liu Hun. But if there was any danger to him and Alice, Liu Hun wouldn’t graciously help her.
"Xiao Liu-ge, what’s going on? How could such a poor little girl be used by soone..." Alice was getting anxious.
"Inside her body, there’s a particularly stubborn Gu worm. Even I can’t drive it out. I believe the worm has been inside her for quite so ti, and I’m sure soone placed it on purpose." Liu Hun said softly to Alice, with a frown.
After hearing Liu Hun’s explanation, Alice beca anxious, her eyes reddening as she nearly started crying.
"What should we do now? How about sending the girl to an orphanage?" Alice suggested.
"There’s no need for that now. Since I’ve brought her back, she has a purpose here. However, you shouldn’t worry, and I’ll still do what I said in front of the dia. And once this is over, take her abroad." Liu Hun took a deep breath and said solemnly.
"But..." Alice wanted to say more, but Liu Hun cut her off, smiling and gently placing his hand on Alice’s flawless face. "It’s alright. I told you not to worry. I may not have solved this yet, but it’s just a matter of ti. In my heart, I truly like this little girl!"
"Alright then." Although Liu Hun spoke reassuringly, Alice still worried a bit.
Seeing Alice in this state made Liu Hun feel a bit guilty. If he had known, he wouldn’t have told Alice about this issue, sparing her so concerns.
But given the situation, Liu Hun refrained from saying more. He understood Alice’s nature; even if he said more, Alice would still be worried.
"Alright, it’s getting late. Go wash up and rest early. I have to prepare for the next few days tonight. But once I’m done, I’ll rely on you a bit more." Liu Hun chuckled and affectionately said to Alice.
Alice obediently nodded and did as Liu Hun instructed. After washing up, she returned to her room to rest.
After a quick wash, Liu Hun went back to his room to enter cultivation. Over the past few days, whether due to dia reports or sothing else, the Power of Faith within him suddenly grew significantly.
So, taking this opportunity, Liu Hun wanted to refine this Power of Faith as soon as possible.
As for the Heart Control Gu inside Li Shishi, Liu Hun didn’t pay much attention to it for now. The Gu might only control Li Shishi at a crucial mont, but given her young age, it wouldn’t be of much use anyway.
If Liu Hun’s strength increases, this Heart Control Gu will be easily dealt with.
"Qian Zhongshu, I hope you didn’t do this. Otherwise, don’t bla for not being polite!" In his heart, Liu Hun couldn’t help but say softly.
As Liu Hun was cultivating until midnight, he suddenly opened his eyes, a cold glint flashing in them. He then casually turned on the room’s surveillance monitor.
Looking at the big screen in the room, he saw a few guys prying at his front door. However, without exception, their eyes were blood-red.
Faced with these guys who had so sharpness to them, Liu Hun’s eyes narrowed slightly.
Their movents were agile and swift. In a short ti, they opened the villa’s security door without triggering the alarm.
"Really interesting, they’ve co to find at my house. I want to see who dares to trouble !" After saying this, Liu Hun slowly got up, dressed, and headed downstairs.
When Liu Hun had just co downstairs and opened the door, he saw these guys exploring around his house. Liu Hun narrowed his eyes and said softly, "No need to look, I’m right here."
Although Liu Hun’s voice wasn’t very loud, in the silent night, it was still clearly audible.
"Liu Hun!" Hearing Liu Hun’s voice, these guys imdiately stopped and turned to look at him.
"It’s . Didn’t you sneaking into my house an you were looking for ?" Liu Hun shrugged, slowly walked onto the lawn, and spoke to them calmly.
Based on their actions, Liu Hun had already judged that they were definitely well-trained. Even if they weren’t from the army, they were definitely rcenaries.
But it did not matter which faction they were from, Liu Hun would not let anyone who dared to cause trouble at his house off easily.
"Tell , who sent you to trouble us?" Liu Hun narrowed his eyes and asked the middle-aged n in front of him in a deep voice.
"Kill him!" Among them, a middle-aged man, with eyes full of murderous intent, suddenly had a short knife appear in his hand.
And as soon as he finished speaking, the others began to cautiously close in on Liu Hun.
Faced with their encirclent, Liu Hun’s face showed no sign of fear, because no matter how skilled they were, they were just ordinary people and posed no threat to him.
"Kill!" The voice of slaughter echoed from their mouths. The next mont, they all charged at Liu Hun.
As they attacked, a cold glint flashed in Liu Hun’s eyes. As one middle-aged man approached him, Liu Hun grabbed the man’s wrist with one hand and, following the montum, flung him hard at the others.
The mont this guy slamd into his companions, Liu Hun’s figure vanished like a ghost from their sight. Before they realized it, all they felt was a sharp pain in their legs.
Liu Hun suddenly stood right before them.
Seeing this, as they struggled to stand, they realized that their leg tendons had been severed by Liu Hun.
Scarlet blood continuously flowed slowly from the wounds.
Watching these n struggle, Liu Hun coldly asked, "Tell , who sent you? If you answer truthfully, I might spare your lives. Otherwise, don’t bla for being ruthless!"
"You... you can’t kill , I hold a military rank!" Whether due to excessive blood loss or for another reason, at that mont, the n’s minds gradually started to clear. One of the middle-aged n gritted his teeth and said to Liu Hun in a deep voice.
