In these recent days, although I haven't faced that guy directly, I've been constantly contending with him.

Having witnessed his skills, Xu Fan is well aware that this guy is definitely not an easy opponent to deal with.

According to Yoshida Shun's words, when that guy asked him to find Asao Mai, he showed a surprised expression.

Xu Fan can't believe that guy would miss the clue!

If that guy is using Yoshida Shun as bait, then right now, Asao Mai is already in danger!

"Asao Mai!"

Xu Fan hurriedly rushed out of the bedroom, shouting Asao Mai's name!

Although the time spent with this girl was not long, he has a pretty good impression of her.

Perhaps she is a bit tsundere, but overall, she is kind-hearted! If, because of his involvement, this girl gets abducted by that guy, Xu Fan would absolutely not forgive himself!

The continuous shouting received no response, and Xu Fan anxiously searched the villa.

It was evident that Yoshida Shun's thugs guarding the villa were all lying on the ground!

It was clear that while Yoshida Shun was with Xu Fan in the bedroom, that guy had already made his move!

Most likely, Asao Mai has already been abducted by him!

"This..."

Not understanding why Xu Fan suddenly changed his expression, Yoshida Shun hurriedly followed him out.

Seeing the thugs fallen on the ground, Yoshida Shun's face turned pale.

Before Xu Fan arrived, everything at home was fine, but just a few minutes alone with Xu Fan in the bedroom... and now so many people have fallen...

"..."

Thinking about it brought extreme fear; Yoshida Shun felt that his entire house was unsafe.

"That… boss, I, I really didn't know it would turn out like this..."

As the fear in his heart faded, Yoshida Shun quickly looked towards Xu Fan.

Obviously, he had been used by that guy due to his own cleverness, and with the woman brought by Xu Fan being taken away, Yoshida Shun couldn't be unafraid.

He explained, trembling.

"Ha ha, Yoshida Shun, do you have nothing but mush in your head?"

With Asao Mai being captured, Xu Fan was not in a good mood, so he rudely glared at Yoshida Shun.

But he also blamed himself; if he had blocked Asao Mai when she wanted to follow or if he hadn't let her leave the bedroom earlier, she wouldn't have been in trouble.

"Hoo..."

Not lingering on this matter, Xu Fan took a deep breath and looked at Yoshida Shun.

Instead of feeling guilt and annoyance, it's better to quickly find a way to rescue Asao Mai.

"Yoshida Shun, do you have surveillance in this villa?"

"Yes! Yes! We can watch the surveillance! Boss, you, you come with me!"

At Xu Fan's question, Yoshida Shun hurriedly agreed.

To guard against thieves, he had indeed set up surveillance at home, and if they could extract the footage now, they might find something.

In a short time, Yoshida Shun led Xu Fan into the villa's surveillance room.

"Boss, look..."

Yoshida Shun brought up the earlier surveillance footage and gestured for Xu Fan to watch.

Immediately, Xu Fan sat in front of the monitor and carefully began to watch.

He could see Asao Mai walking out of the bedroom after greeting him.

Due to his relationship, this girl faced no hindrance.

And she was intently checking Yoshida Shun's household assets, unaware of a thug from Yoshida Shun's home silently approaching her from behind.

With a single chop, he directly knocked Asao Mai unconscious.

Not realizing that his companion dared to attack someone close to Xu Fan, Yoshida Shun's thugs were completely stunned.

And within a split second, that guy unleashed a palm, several strands of Qi Force immediately knocking everyone down!

"This... how is Mitsui so... so powerful?"

The footage scared Yoshida Shun senseless; he recognized the thug who attacked Asao Mai as one of his company's debt collectors.

However, logically, that guy shouldn't be this strong.

Muttering to himself, Yoshida Shun quickly realized a problem.

"Boss, I, I really don't know how this happened."

"Mitsui shouldn't have such guts... Right, right, I know where he lives..."

The person who abducted Asao Mai was one of his thugs, so now he was bearing the blame.

Yoshida Shun clearly couldn't shoulder this blame, so with a mournful face, he hurriedly explained.

"Shut up."

Xu Fan wasn't in the mood to listen to his explanations.

His eyes remained on the surveillance screen.

It showed the guy carrying Asao Mai after knocking everyone down, heading toward the villa's entrance.

Seeming to realize something, he stopped at the doorway, then turned around.

His eyes directly staring into the surveillance camera.

His lips moved, saying something.

It wasn't difficult to determine what he said based on his lip movements.

"Friend, if you keep following me, you will die."

This sentence was clearly aimed at him. Watching the guy's smug smile, Xu Fan's face was grim, and he clenched his fists.

Clearly, it was just as he suspected; when this guy found Yoshida Shun, he had already sensed something was wrong.

Most likely keeping Yoshida Shun under surveillance from the shadows, he learned about Xu Fan's involvement.

He was likely wearing the face of one of Yoshida Shun's thugs using Face Changing Technique since it wasn't his first time doing so.

Even with his cultivation level in the Entering Dao Realm, he couldn't detect him lurking in the villa, proving that the guy's strength wasn't inferior to his own.

Now, with someone so skilled capturing Asao Mai, Xu Fan couldn't help but worry for her.

"Could it be..."

Connecting the dots of the whole incident in his mind, Xu Fan pondered endlessly.

Everything this guy did seemed to point towards Monk Xuyun's Martial Arts Heritage; could it be that Asao Mai had some connection to unlocking it?

This girl, what is her true identity...

He hadn't wanted to pry too much into her identity, but now he found that her background was involved in something so significant...

Xu Fan couldn't help but feel some regret; if he had known, he should have let her tell her story in detail.

Regret was already too late; what needed to be thought about was how to make amends.

Perhaps, he might find some clues at Asao Mai's home.

Xu Fan took a deep breath and stood up.
