"Ah? We’ve been targeted?"
Ye Qianrou was taken aback, her face full of surprise.
Because throughout, she hadn’t felt a thing.
Everything seemed particularly normal to her, how could they have been targeted?
"To be precise, we were targeted the moment we got off the plane!"
Chen Feng’s lips curled slightly in a sardonic smile as he spoke.
Ye Qianrou looked around stealthily upon hearing this.
But found that apart from passengers like her who had just gotten off the plane, there was no suspicious figure.
This made Ye Qianrou frown slightly, then she looked at Chen Feng, shook her head, and said puzzledly, "No, I don’t see anything!"
"If it were that easy for you to spot, it wouldn’t be called secret tracking!"
Chen Feng said indifferently.
"Then what should we do?"
Ye Qianrou asked in confusion.
"There are too many people here; most are innocent civilians, so let’s not bother with them. Since they’re tracking us, they’ll certainly keep following us. Let’s find a deserted place and really play with them!"
Chen Feng’s lips curled slightly in a cold smile as he spoke.
Then, without hesitation, they directly walked quickly towards the airport exit.
Due to the time difference.
When they left the airport, it was already completely dark.
After all, Japan is in Asia.
They departed from Japan at night, arriving in Europe when it was already daytime in Japan.
Europe and Asia have nearly several hours of time difference.
So daytime in Asia becomes night here in Europe.
After leaving the airport, Chen Feng and Ye Qianrou caught a taxi, but didn’t go directly to the city center.
Instead, they had the taxi driver head towards the nearby Wild Lake Park, which was almost deserted at night.
Initially, the taxi driver was reluctant.
After all, Wild Lake Park wasn’t known to be peaceful, with several murder cases said to have occurred there.
Late at night, nobody really wants to go there.
Chen Feng offered the taxi driver triple the fare, and the driver hesitated no more, driving them to Wild Lake Park.
This is the advantage of having money!
Though money isn’t everything, it often plays a crucial role.
Wild Lake Park wasn’t far from the airport.
So quickly, the taxi arrived at Wild Lake Park.
Calling it a park, there was little more than a neglected wild lake and sporadic sparse trees lining the roadside.
This made everything look barren, somewhat desolate.
Especially at night, the cold moonlight cast an additional chill over the lake’s surface.
No wonder the taxi driver was reluctant to come here.
It’s the middle of the night, after all, and no sensible person would want to visit such a creepy place.
After dropping off Chen Feng and Ye Qianrou, the taxi driver immediately turned and left Wild Lake Park.
Clearly, he didn’t want to stay in such a ghostly place for even a minute longer.
If Chen Feng hadn’t offered triple the fare, he wouldn’t have come at all.
Chen Feng and Ye Qianrou watched the taxi speeding away, exchanging a helpless smile.
They surveyed their surroundings.
At this moment, besides them, there was no other passerby around.
This made them nod approvingly.
This was perfect, sparing innocent bystanders.
They chose such a deserted spot precisely for this reason.
About a minute passed.
Chen Feng squinted his eyes slightly, muttering, "They should be here by now!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a sudden gust of cold wind rose around them.
The eerie wind sounded like ghostly wails, sending chills down one’s spine, remarkably strange.
Even for Ye Qianrou, who was mentally prepared, her face changed slightly.
She felt that the atmosphere was reminiscent of when ghosts appeared in horror films.
"Chen Feng, what’s going on? Could the ones tailing us... not be human?"
Ye Qianrou shivered slightly, asking in fear.
After all, she was a girl and had a natural fear of specters.
"They’re human, just pretending to be supernatural!"
Chen Feng’s lips curled slightly in a cold smile as he spoke.
Having said that, he took a step forward, looking ahead, and said calmly, "Since you’ve followed us all the way, why hide? Come out already!"
"Heh heh heh, as expected from the Dragon Group’s ace, King of Soldiers!"
"Dao Feng, all these years, your perception truly hasn’t diminished a bit!"
A sinister voice rang out in the dark.
Soon, a dark figure emerged from the shadows not far in front.
Seeing this figure, Ye Qianrou was taken aback.
As the figure drew closer, under the faint moonlight, Ye Qianrou and Chen Feng finally saw the figure clearly.
That figure, strictly speaking, appeared to be a foreign elderly man in a long robe.
The elder’s face was ghastly pale, covered in wrinkles, with almost no flesh, frighteningly thin.
His face looked like a skeleton overlaid with dry skin, immensely creepy.
The elder was enveloped in a sense of death, lacking any trace of vitality.
If the elder couldn’t walk or speak, he would truly be indistinguishable from a corpse.
And this foreign elder.
Upon seeing his true appearance, Ye Qianrou’s eyes widened in shock, her eyes full of astonishment. She immediately looked at the elder and exclaimed, "Night... Night Breeze, you’re Elder Night Breeze!"
"Ah, Qiangwei, didn’t expect you to still remember me. I thought you’d forgotten this old man after defecting from the organization!"
Elder Night Breeze smiled.
However, his face wasn’t pleasant to look at.
This smile intensified his creepiness.
Ye Qianrou looked at Elder Night Breeze’s grim smile, inhaled sharply, her body involuntarily trembling.
For Elder Night Breeze was a notorious character in the Soul Sorrow Mercenary Group.
His status in the Soul Sorrow Mercenary Group was second only to Sikong Zhuxing.
Moreover, he had a special mission to investigate and hunt down defectors of the organization.
Of course, being able to carry out this mission is testament.
His prowess was considerably terrifying.
In the entire Soul Sorrow Mercenary Group, those who could rival him were countable on one hand.
So in these years, none of the defectors from Soul Sorrow Mercenaries managed to live safely.
Without exception, they all perished at Elder Night Breeze’s hands.
