"If you want to laugh, just laugh," Mu Feng said, glaring at him impatiently. "Why hold it in and feel uncomfortable?"
Xiao Qi noticed the unfriendly look and quickly said, "Young Master, Xiao Ba just sent a message, and it's related to Qian Mian Ren. The Yao family is behind this."
"We even suspect that the Yao family is the mastermind behind everything. They've been causing trouble all along, and it fits their modus operandi perfectly."
"From my investigation into their information, they prefer to manipulate from the shadows. They won't act personally unless absolutely necessary."
"I strongly suspect they've been watching us, likely for those medicinal formulas you have, Young Master."
A cold glint flashed in Mu Feng's eyes, his gaze sharpening.
"Since we have our suspicions, there's no need to waste any more time. Tell Xiao Ba to make his move. Capture whoever he can."
"As long as we can get them to talk, the truth of their involvement will come to light."
"As for Qian Mian Ren, assign someone to keep an eye on him. Although his strength is average, this person is too cunning. He definitely won't cooperate willingly. Even if he's controlled, he'll find a way to escape."
Xiao Qi immediately nodded. "Young Master, I'll go handle this right away. Should I just bring Qian Mian Ren back? He's too unpredictable, like a slippery loach."
"We've tried to track him before, but he got away."
Mu Feng shook his head slightly. "No need. He has at most twenty-four hours. I know he'll deliberately stall, but he'll definitely go look for the person behind the scenes."
"I'll handle this personally. You just need to keep an eye on Xiao Ba. If he dares to play any games, don't report to me. Just eliminate him."
Sensing the sharp killing intent, Xiao Qi immediately bowed respectfully in acknowledgment, then vanished from the villa in a flash.
A faint, almost imperceptible smile touched Mu Feng's lips as he looked towards the villa's entrance. "Since you're already here, why wait outside?"
"You won't get a better opportunity by waiting any longer."
Upon hearing his words, there was no movement from the doorway.
However, Mu Feng clearly heard footsteps retreating.
A playful expression flickered in his eyes. "I told you, come inside. Step outside again, and you'll face the consequences!"
The footsteps not only didn't stop but hurried away even faster.
"I gave you a chance, but you didn't cherish it."
After saying this, Mu Feng slowly faded from his seat. The next moment, he reappeared outside the villa, amidst the lush green forest.
This villa area was adjacent to a mountain, densely forested and well-maintained. In many places, the wild grass grew taller than a person.
Not far in front of him stood a man completely clad in black. He was thin, his face obscured, but his visible eyes clearly indicated he wasn't an old man. A hint of fear flickered in his eyes.
"Mu Feng, I was so far away. How did you find me?" the man asked, his voice laced with wariness. He slowly backed away, his heels near the waist-high wild grass behind him.
If he could just slip into the dense bushes...
Perhaps he might still have a chance to escape.
Mu Feng's smile widened. "You don't need to worry about how I found you. Now, you only have one chance, and you've already wasted it."
"You ignored what I said before, so don't blame me for taking action against you."
The black-clad man's pupils contracted sharply. He retreated rapidly, his movements like lightning, darting towards the bushes.
However, before he could take more than a few steps, Mu Feng had already seized him by the scruff of his neck, yanking him back.
"Trying to run? You have to ask if I agree!"
Hearing this, the black-clad man's pupils constricted to their limit. His eyes were filled with intense fear. He had already known Mu Feng was powerful, but he never imagined he would be so terrifyingly strong.
If he were given another chance, he would never have appeared before Mu Feng, let alone come to surveil him. Now, he knew it was too late to regret it. His gaze trembled.
"Mu Feng, don't even think about asking who sent me. You won't get any information from me. I know nothing. Even if you hurt me, you'll only end up disappointed."
"I only received a message. The message was very clear: I just needed to monitor you. I didn't expect your strength to be so formidable. Kill me, I admit defeat!"
Upon hearing this, Mu Feng's smile grew even more pronounced. "Since you understand me so well, you should also know that even if you can't provide any useful information, you likely won't escape death."
"And whether I take action against you is not for you to decide, but for me to dictate."
"It doesn't matter if you know nothing. Anyway, I just want you to experience what it's like to wish you were dead. After you've tasted that feeling, I believe you'll be cautious in your next life and won't make the same mistake."
The black-clad man's eyes widened in obvious terror at Mu Feng's words. "What do you want to do?"
Mu Feng's smile became even more obvious. "Don't you already guess what I want to do? Your eyes just now betrayed your thoughts."
"Whether you know who is behind it is no longer important. I merely want you to endure the pain of torment." httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět
"There's a price to pay for what you've done, and your current price is severe. I believe you already suspected this when you took action."
With that, he suddenly exerted force.
The fierce and domineering spiritual energy, like a destructive force, shattered the black-clad man's meridians almost instantly.
The agonizing pain caused the black-clad man to cry out immediately, his eyes wide with stunned disbelief.
It was only now that he truly realized Mu Feng's terrifying power. His strength was simply beyond anything he could resist.
In Mu Feng's presence, he felt like a mere insect being toyed with, unable to break free from Mu Feng's grasp no matter how hard he struggled.
