There were still many insects left in the city, and gunshots were everywhere. An ordinary woman wouldn't dare to leave the hotel at this time. Most importantly, Luo Kai couldn't remember what the woman looked like.
One had to know that he already had a photographic memory. Everyone and everything that he came into contact with would be stored in his memory like a hard disk. He would not miss a single detail. But now, the memory that the woman left in his mind was actually a blur. The only impression left was that she had very thick makeup.
Luo Kai was traveling in the night, and his speed wasn't any slower than a car. He didn't know why the other party kidnapped Lu Qing, but it was most likely for him.
Moonlight Bay was located at the border of Changyuan County and Hanzhou County. It was close to the Misty Mountains. Due to the abundant fishing resources and the beautiful scenery, many people were attracted to settle down there.
When the sky was slightly brightening, Luo Kai arrived at Moonlight Bay. It was indeed very beautiful. The verdant mountains surrounded a long and narrow crescent-shaped lake. The lake water was crystal clear, and a flock of white birds were cruising above. The lake in the morning was filled with a faint mist, and the hazy scenery was extremely beautiful.
Unfortunately, Luo Kai wasn't in the mood to appreciate the beautiful scenery. He knew that the hope of finding Lu Qing was extremely slim, so he continued to search along the lakeside. After circling around, he didn't find any trace of Lu Qing's aura. He continued to expand the area and searched the surrounding mountains.
…
In Longyang City, Su Chengbo stood in front of the window of the study room and looked at the pavilion in the manor. Su Hsiao-mei and a girl with a ponytail were discussing something. Su Hsiao-mei changed from her original melancholy and chattered non-stop. The girl with a ponytail listened attentively and took out a small notebook from time to time to record.
Su Chengbo smiled and turned back to sit in front of the desk. A secret guard in black pushed the door and entered. He bowed and said, "Family Head, the insect infestation in Changyuan has been eliminated. It is said that a saber-wielding physique master personally killed the Insect Queen."
Su Chengbo's expression turned serious as he asked, "Do you know what he looks like?"
"I'm not sure. I heard that it's a very young physique master."
Su Chengbo frowned. Those who were able to become physical masters were all extremely talented people. Even so, they would need to be at least forty to fifty years old to be able to reach this level. After becoming a physical master, one's physique and appearance would change, even becoming much younger. However, it was impossible for one to be twenty years younger. He nodded and said, "Understood. You may leave."
After the Secret Guardian left, a figure flashed across Su Chengbo's mind. He mumbled, "Could it be that Li Hong released him?"
After a while, his expression suddenly changed. He got up and walked to the window. There was another figure in the pavilion in the courtyard. It was a tall and stalwart man. He was wearing a tattered jacket and his hair was disheveled. However, he didn't look sloppy. Instead, he had a strange and elegant temperament.
The man seemed to have sensed something and looked towards the window. He smiled at Su Chengbo and said a few words to Su Hsiao-mei before walking over.
A rough voice rang in Su Chengbo's ears, "Brother Su, your daughter is really enviable. Is she practicing the Nine Extremes Divination?"
Su Chengbo's mouth moved slightly. He condensed his voice into a line and transmitted it over, "Brother Tuoba, you are very knowledgeable. You can tell at a glance."
The man walked into the study and sat on the sofa unceremoniously. He sighed and said, "Sigh, if only my little brat's brain was 30% as smart as my little sister's."
Su Chengbo personally brewed a cup of tea for the man. He smiled and said, "Xiao Yong was born with great strength. It's hard to find one in a billion people. I've been envious for a long time."
"My little brat is really strong. Damn it, I can't even compare to him!"
The man said complacently. He finished the tea in his cup and stared at Su Chengbo with bright eyes. "Brother Su, we grew up together and studied together in Shang Jing. We are childhood friends and schoolmates. Why don't you consider marrying your little sister to my Tuoba family?"
Su Chengbo took a sip of tea and said with a bitter smile, "I also like Xiao Yong. He and my little sister are well-matched. But you know the rules of our Three-Eyed Race. The man must marry into the family …"
The man rudely interrupted, "The rules are dead, but people are alive. Old Su, with your status in the Three-Eyed Race, it's just a matter of a word."
Su Chengbo shook his head, "This is the foundation of our Three-Eyed Race. It can't be broken."
The man stood up angrily and was about to leave. When he reached the door, he remembered that he had something important to do. He turned back and said, "Old Su, I heard that you are very close to the Evil Spirit Resonator named Luo Kai?"
Su Chengbo asked curiously, "Wasn't that young man captured by you?"
The man returned to his seat and said seriously, "Li Hong is dead. That little brat is missing. This time, the Body Arts Association sent me to Seongma Province to investigate this matter."
Su Chengbo's expression changed. The world of physical techniques could be said to be big, but it could also be said to be small. Furthermore, physical practitioners had their own circle, and they would more or less have some understanding of any famous physical practitioner. Li Hong had already advanced into a physical practitioner more than ten years ago, and was a powerful light cast warrior. Even if he couldn't beat him, if he wanted to leave, there was nothing in this world that could stop him. He asked in a low voice, "Do you know what killed him?"
"Self-detonation. He died with the Extraterrestrial Creatures!"
Su Chengbo was shocked by the man's words. The third eye between his eyebrows suddenly opened, and a trace of silver light appeared. The Extraterrestrial Creatures were too terrifying. Not only did they have extremely advanced technology, but they could also imitate everything. Any method could be used to the extreme in their hands. Most importantly, they were a destructive species. They took the annihilation of all civilizations as their responsibility. They were the common enemy of all living things.
"When did this happen?"
"More than a month ago, there was extremely strong radiation at the scene. It was estimated that the extraterrestrial creatures used powerful weapons with the nature of radiation. Li Hong and his five subordinates were all killed. Only the man named Luo Kai was missing. We found a sign at the scene, which said, 'The place where Li Hong and the extraterrestrial creatures died together.'"
Su Chengbo calmed down. He pondered for a while and asked, "Was this sign put up by Luo Kai?"
The man nodded. "It should be. That's why I came here this time to find this Luo Kai resonator. In recent years, the Extraterrestrial Creatures have rarely attacked. They knew that there was a physical master on the airship who could threaten their lives, but they still attacked. We have to know the reason."
Su Chengbo understood the meaning of his words. He was stunned. "You suspect that the Extraterrestrial Creatures are related to Luo Kai?"
"Yes, I suspect that the Extraterrestrial Creatures are trying to save him."
Su Chengbo flatly said, "That's impossible. I've seen this young man before, and I have a rough idea of his background. He was a prisoner of Southern Tooth Island in the early years. He learned some physical skills from a four-armed man. Later, he saved my little sister. He's kind by nature. He can't be related to the Extraterrestrial Creatures."
The man said in a low voice, "But what did he do before he was imprisoned in Southern Tooth Prison?
It's as if this man suddenly appeared in this world. He has no past. "
Su Chengbo was silent. After a long time, he said, "He was sent in by the previous warden. But the previous warden is dead, and the specific information of the case has disappeared."
The man walked to the window and sighed. "It seems that Brother Su knows as much as I do. Then forget it. I have to find him."
