s time, then of course we’ll be going big on this.”

“Alright!” The tall and short pair was ecstatic.

Xia Fei gripped his fist tightly.
He suddenly had the impulse of rushing down the three men and giving them a severe flogging.
He could tell from what the three men had said that they had designs on Avril.
A conspiracy had to be severed at its head, and Xia Fei had absolutely no intention of letting Avril come to even an iota of harm.

That was when the bald man said, “I’m going to let you guys in on this; we’re off to Hook’s base.”

“Where is this place? Back then, the naval headquarters sent two fleets in search of that place just to clear out them all in one fell swoop, yet the Navy spent three whole months searching, and still they turned up empty-handed, unable to find him anywhere.
How did you learn this, Lucien?”

The bald man smiled.
“Actually, I have no idea myself.
Hook’s very cautious, so why would he tell me, but the address he gave me this time means that, as long as I can find the place, someone will naturally be able to point us toward him.”

“So that’s how it is.
Our trip out will not have been in vain if we can have a look around Hook’s base; we’ll also be able to boast about it when we return.”

The bald man’s face turned grim.
“I’m only telling you two because I trust you bros.
If any of you dare to speak a word of this, someone will easily take care of you before I can even lift a finger myself.”

The tall and short men shook their heads vigorously when they heard this as if to show that they would not leak this secret to anyone.

Xia Fei clenched and unclenched his fists after he heard this exchange.
It appeared as if these people were hardly noticeable henchmen, and the real big fish was still hiding behind the curtains.
He figured that he should take this chance to delve deep and learn the truth behind this conspiracy once and for all.

As the transport ship sped through the darkness of deep space, Xia Fei kept himself hidden in the shadowy corner of the ship, watching their every move.
Time passed quickly, and it had already been over ten hours.
Xia Fei was already very far away from the capital ring by this time.

“Being alone behind enemy lines without any hope for back up or reinforcement just isn’t right.
Shouldn’t we send a message to Thuram or Pang Xing so that we can get them to respond accordingly?” Phantom proposed.

Xia Fei shook his head.
He poked a finger out to point at a machine that had a blinking light on it.
This machine was square-shaped and was not particularly large in size.
It had been mixed in together with many other electronics, looking hardly conspicuous.
The indicator light was flashing at a very uniformed pace, even making the occasional beep from time to time.

“That’s a precision signal snare!” Phantom gasped softly.
This machine was able to capture the electronic signal around, track easily and intercept automatically any communication signal onboard.
Phantom had not noticed that it was there precisely because of how well concealed it was.

…

As long as the signal snare was working, there would be no way for Xia Fei to contact the outside world.
It was pointless even if he sent out a message, for it would intercept the signal and turn it into jumbled codes.

“If there’s a need, I’ll use the nether bell to contact the Assassin Sect, but I have no plans to loop them in at the moment,” Xia Fei said.

Phantom nodded.
Since Xia Fei was an envoy of the Assassin Sect, he had a nether bell in his possession.
The signal frequency from that particular device was not known to anyone in the Alliance, so there would be no way for a signal snare to intercept and jam its signal.

Phantom was put slightly at ease, though he knew very well that any attempt to reach out to the sect was tantamount to fishing for the moon in a lake as the Assassin Sect was too far away to render any timely assistance.

…

It was midday by the tournament venue for the Golden Finger Cup, and the molecular engineering event was already over.
Li Mo cinched the first place in this segment just as he wished, closing in his gap with Xia Fei and Constantine.

The audience and other participants were perplexed on why the miraculous, double max scorer from yesterday, Xia Fei, was a no-show today.
They could not help but wonder just what could be even more important than participating in this tournament.

…

News media outlets would never miss a chance to speculate upon groundless rumors, with all of them interviewing the tournament committee for their opinion on why Xia Fei had not joined the event today, but the committee’s answer was equally disappointing, for they had no clue where Xia Fei was, either.

Out of everyone, perhaps the one who knew the most would be Avril.
This was the legendary ultimate move that Xia Fei had, habitually disappearing when people least expected him to.
Ever since they first came to know each other, Avril had already lost count of the times when Xia Fei would abruptly disappear, and just like each and every instance before, Xia Fei’s disappearance was so strange that it was completely impossible to predict.

“Let’s go.” Avril stood up and left the venue with a look of disappointment.
A whole morning of waiting was more than enough to let her know that Xia Fei was gone once again.

“My lady, I’m sure Xia Fei must have something important, which is why he left without saying a word.” Pang Xing hated seeing Avril sad, so he did what he could to console her.

“I know,” Avril said in a small voice.

“This isn’t the first time, either.
I’m sure Xia Fei will reappear by your side with a bright smile in a few days,” Pang Xing continued.

“I know.
Let’s head back home first.
I’d still like to practice the ceremonial decorum this afternoon.
Grandfather’s birthday is coming up.
I don’t wish to be ridiculed when that time comes,” Avril said.

“Understood.
I’ll send men to wait here, twenty-four seven.
They’ll inform me the moment Xia Fei returns.”

Avril thought about this for some time.
“There’s no need.
He’ll always give me a ring the moment he comes back; that’s always for certain.”

The calmer Avril was, the sadder Pang Xing felt.
Just like how bystanders had a clearer view of the situation, Pang Xing knew just how important Xia Fei was to Avril.

Pang Xing even felt that Xia Fei was very detestable, causing Avril to be on her nerves for some time every time he disappeared, which only made Avril cherish the time they got to spend with each other all the more whenever he came back.

Absence made the heart fonder.
Perhaps it was Xia Fei maintaining such a removed relationship with Avril that she was unable to move on from him.

In the distance, Li Mo came by with Bai Ye and that mustached man in tow, a delighted smile plastered over his face.

Avril pretended not to notice him, lifting her breathtakingly beautiful face as she passed him without sparing a glance.

“Avril, why did Xia Fei not participate in today’s event? He isn’t afraid, is he?” Li Mo’s flippant words caused the mustached man and Bai Ye to laugh happily with him.

“Xia Fei’s busy,” Avril said, without turning to face him.

“What is he busy with? Did he not tell you?” Li Mo lightly slapped his face in mockery.
“Oh, that’s right; if he told you in advance, then you wouldn’t come here at all today.
This clearly shows that he isn’t particularly nice to you, so why do you still protect him so?”

Li Mo’s words stabbed right into Avril’s heart.
She came to a halt as her face went a bit pale.
Pang Xing could no longer stand to watch and stood right in front of Li Mo, angrily glaring at Li Mo with eyes that were as large as bronze bells, balling up his two fists hard.

The mustached man next to Li Mo lightly stepped forward and used his body to protect his master, saying, “Brother Pang, there’re many people watching around here.
Nothing good will come out of creating a scene here.”

Pang Xing did not say a word, his chest burning with rage, almost as if he was about to explode.

That was when Avril laughed mirthlessly.
“Let’s go.
These people aren’t fit to know about the things between me and Xia Fei.”

Pang Xing coldly harrumphed, turning to follow Avril behind.
“My lady, I feel that you’ve changed.
Had it been you two years ago, you would’ve surely burst into tears all by yourself, yet you’re now able to retaliate, unperturbed.”

Avril did not say a word.
Pang Xing understood that she had changed so much all due to Xia Fei’s influence, and he secretly made the decision to reduce his hostility toward Xia Fei in the future.
If Avril really did marry Li Mo one day, he could tell that there would surely be no good days ahead.
When taken together, Pang Xing instead felt more at ease if she married Xia Fei, since Xia Fei would take on the responsibility of protecting the lady without a shred of fear.

…

Xia Fei had been onboard that transport ship for over ten hours before it finally reached a rundown planet.
The world looked tumultuous and polluted when he looked at it through a porthole, and the streets were all muddy.
Scantily clad women were standing by the street soliciting business.
Their faces had this strange whiteness to them, their eyes glazed over, most likely the result of long term substance abuse.

“Let’s go; this is our stop,” said the bald man.
“Remember to act properly when we meet Hook.
He’s not someone whom you want to mess with.”

“Don’t worry, brother Lucien.
We know how we should conduct ourselves.”

The three took the automatic stairs and alighted from the ship.
Xia Fei, who was hidden, slipped out as well while they were distracted.
He silently stalked behind the trio as they entered a city that stank of rot.
