"Hmph! I'll deal with you another day!"

If they started making a fuss now, it would most likely wake the other students. Zhou Keren glared at Xu Fan fiercely and pulled Xia Xiaodie to her feet.

"Xiaodie, come with me!"

Without caring whether Xia Xiaodie was willing or not, Zhou Keren just left with her, while Xu Fan watched, unable to help but curl his lips.

Three people had come over in the night, and in the end, all of them left, not playing fair at all...

After all the commotion, Xu Fan was also feeling tired, and soon he fell asleep with his sleeping bag in a daze.

...

Soon, the next day arrived. Xu Fan got up early, stepped out of the tent, and planned to prepare some breakfast for his classmates.

"Xu Fan! Something terrible has happened! Something terrible has happened!"

At that moment, he saw Guan Shimeng and Zhao Yan rushing over to him with a group of people, all anxious.

Guan Shimeng's expression was extremely tense; as soon as she got to Xu Fan, she couldn't stop panting.

Seeing her like this, it seemed the situation was serious. Xu Fan frowned and quickly tried to comfort her, "Shimeng, don't panic. What happened? Take your time and tell me."

After catching her breath a bit, Guan Shimeng said, "Teacher Zhou and Xiaodie are missing!"

"What?"

Xu Fan was taken aback when he heard this!

They had both left together from his place last night; how could they be missing?

"When did you notice the two of them were missing?"

Upon hearing Xu Fan's question, the girl who shared a tent with Xia Xiaodie quickly explained, "After we separated last night, Xiaodie disappeared. Teacher Zhou went out to look for her, and I didn't take it seriously at the time, so I went to sleep..."

"But when we woke up this morning, neither of them had come back..."

The girl could not help but start wiping away her tears as she sobbed, "It's all my fault. If I had notified everyone earlier, perhaps something wouldn't have happened to them..."

All the campers were students from the class; none had experienced anything like this before. Now, as one started crying, the others began to panic as well.

The scene was getting out of control. Xu Fan saw this and quickly began to reassure everyone.

"Everyone, don't panic just yet; I will handle this."

"Dongdong! Where are the other students in the class?"

Xu Fan turned to look at Chen Dongdong, who grinned and said, "Boss, everyone is fine. It's just Teacher Zhou and Xiaodie who are missing..."

"Damn it..."

Xu Fan cursed silently to himself.

Zhou Keren and Xia Xiaodie had most likely disappeared after leaving him last night.

Given Zhou Keren's personality, she probably didn't take Xia Xiaodie directly back to the tent. She was likely looking for a secluded place to lecture Xia Xiaodie about matters like dating at an early age.

They probably went missing at that time, but why would they disappear then?

Could it be that they had been kidnapped?

Xu Fan shook his head. With such a short amount of time and no clues, it was impossible for him to deduce the cause and effect.

"Dongdong, Shi Yong, don't say I never gave you a chance to shine."

"I'm going to look for the two of them now. Your responsibility is to gather everyone together. Moreover, you must calm the female students in the class."

"Also, be quick to notify the outsiders, understood?"

Zhou Keren and Xia Xiaodie were probably missing since around one o'clock last night, and now more than six hours had passed, which meant they could already be in danger.

Xu Fan didn't have time to lose; he had to find the two of them immediately!

"Xu Fan, we'll help you look for them too!"

At this moment, several boys from the class volunteered to step forward, but Xu Fan shook his head and said, "No need, I can do it myself."

"Don't wander off anymore, understand?"

Zhou Keren and Xia Xiaodie must have been kidnapped, but during that time, Xu Fan hadn't heard any noise at all, which clearly indicated that the perpetrator was a master.

Having several students search with him wouldn't be any help at all.

After explaining the situation to everyone, Xu Fan ran out alone.

Everyone discovered the situation together and hadn't walked around, so the surrounding environment wasn't disturbed.

Xu Fan was now bowing his head, searching carefully, attempting to find the footprints that Zhou Keren and Xia Xiaodie left last night.

Thanks to the golden glow in his right eye, Xu Fan's vision was far superior to that of an ordinary person, and as he searched, he quickly found the footprints of the two girls.

Following their footprints, Xu Fan eventually arrived at the edge of the dense forest near Tianyue Lake.

Their footprints stopped here.

Xu Fan crouched down and, observing the footprints on the ground, thought that last night, the two of them must have been talking here, and right after that, something happened.

"There wasn't a single sound last night, so they must have been knocked out and taken away, there should be other footprints around here..."

Xu Fan muttered to himself and then started to look around.

The two couldn't have vanished into thin air; since someone had kidnapped them, there must be footprints of the kidnapper around here...

"Found them..."

With patient searching, Xu Fan soon found several faint footprints not far away.

The footprints were shallow, and if Xu Fan's vision hadn't been extraordinary, he probably wouldn't have noticed them. Now crouched down, he began to carefully examine these few footprints.

By the size of the footprints, there were two people who had come to kidnap them.

Both kidnappers were around one meter eighty in height and had rather bulky figures.

Given their build, their footprints shouldn't have been so shallow...

Not to mention, they were carrying someone.

The only possibility...

These two were from a family of martial experts.

Only by practicing a movement technique to a certain realm could they control their footprints to be so faint.

This only made Xu Fan grow more puzzled.

Why would such experts want to kidnap Zhou Keren and Xia Xiaodie?

What on earth were they here for...

"I need to hurry and find them first..."

As he followed the trail, Xu Fan hadn't seen any bloodstains, and the care the kidnappers took in taking away Zhou Keren and Xia Xiaodie without leaving much trace proved they didn't intend to kill them outright.

As for their ultimate purpose, that could only be understood after finding them.

Immediately, Xu Fan followed the footprints left by these two people to track them down.

Although the two were very cautious, they inevitably left some faint traces in the dense forest, and following these signs, Xu Fan quickly crossed through the forest.

Upon leaving the woods, the traces that could be searched for became much fewer, but Xu Fan was still able to follow these clues to search for the whereabouts of the two people.

"Friend?"

As he was following the footprints, suddenly he heard a voice not far away.

Xu Fan stopped in his tracks, bewildered, and looked over to the side.

He saw two tall men dressed in mountaineering gear, walking towards him...
