31: Chapter 31 Murderous Intent

In a hidden corner.

A young girl leaned against the wall, tilting her head to peek outside.

That's right, she was none other than Xing Yaoyan, who had just shaken off the Enforcer tailing her.

This was all thanks to her innate perception of malice.

Just as she was about to enter a dessert shop, she suddenly sensed several faint traces of malice about a hundred meters behind her.

She immediately realized she might be being followed, and the most likely culprit was undoubtedly the Security Bureau.

After all, that day, Mo Zhao's suspicion had been practically written all over his face.

Realizing this, she immediately changed her original route, slipped into her current location, and activated the Star Swallowing Art to conceal her aura.

Soon, she saw a group of men and women frantically searching around in front of her, some even whispering reports into their headsets.

They searched for quite a while, but the micro spiritual power detectors in their hands never sounded, and it seemed their superiors had no specific instructions, likely not considering her a big fish.

In the end, after exhausting all means, this group left dejectedly.

They never imagined that the target they had been tracking the whole time was watching everything they did with cold eyes...

After confirming that the Enforcers had completely left, Xing Yaoyan adjusted her sun hat and stepped out from the shadows.

She couldn't keep her aura hidden forever; not only was it dangerous to walk down the street invisible to others, but maintaining this state consumed a significant amount of her Power Of Will.

It would be funny if she suddenly turned from a human into a wolf while walking and got reported to the police station.

"Whoa, what is that!"

Suddenly, Xing Yaoyan quickened her pace toward a massive building.

Soon, she reached the floor-to-ceiling glass window of the building, her eyes locked onto the incredibly cool motorcycle behind the glass.

She pressed her hand against the glass, as if she could feel the texture of her dream bike through the pane.

"Hello, miss. I see you're very interested in our latest Laozi motorcycle. Why don't you come in, and I'll give you a detailed explanation."

A beautiful woman in a suit came out from the other side and said respectfully to Xing Yaoyan, who was about to drool.

"Re...really? But I might not be able to afford it..."

"It's fine, miss. Times change. Although your financial resources are limited now, who can say what the future holds? Coming in to look is your right, and serving you is our honor."

The beautiful saleswoman had a silver tongue, and soon Xing Yaoyan was floating on cloud nine.

"Then I'll..."

Just as the words "You're welcome" were about to be spoken, the girl suddenly froze in place.

She then looked up at the smiling saleswoman, a somewhat stiff smile on her face.

"Um... I just remembered I have something to do today, I'll come back next time."

With that, Xing Yaoyan didn't look back and walked away quickly, looking very hurried.

Actually... she was really in a hurry.

"What persistent pests... I finally managed to come out to play, and you all have to ruin my mood like this..."

"So angry, so angry... I really want to kill them all..."

A flash of red light flickered in the girl's eyes, hidden beneath her silver bangs.

Suddenly, her intent shifted slightly, and she turned toward a more secluded alley.

Before long, several men in black suits arrived at the entrance of the alley.

"Young Master, she went in. Should we follow?"

A figure with a twisted expression walked to the front of the group of men.

"Follow her, of course we have to follow. She might be family of that brat Qian Mo. Since we can't catch him, we'll use his family to threaten him!"

Saying this, the figure walked straight into the darkness of the alley.

"It just so happens there's no surveillance here, both sides are abandoned houses, and there are few people. Let's make this quick..."

"Um... Young Master, my friend in the Security Bureau said this girl seemed to suddenly appear from the house where Qian Mo lives. He had never seen her before when he was staking it out. Could this..."

A man in black raised his hand, looking somewhat worried.

"What are you afraid of! It's just one woman, and aren't you all Tier 2 Espers? If you can't even beat her, you can all get lost!"

Liu Yan's angry whisper made the group fall silent, as no one wanted to provoke this young master of the Liu family.

"So it was this brat. I was wondering why I suddenly sensed such strong malice... Great, he even set up an Illusion Array Cube himself. It's like heaven is helping me..."

Right above Liu Yan's group, a figure sat elegantly on a protruding beam in the alley, watching with excitement as the group gathered their spiritual energy and kept searching for her tracks.

"They're all Tier 2 Espers... It seems you are truly angry..."

Xing Yaoyan tapped her lips with her finger, a bright smile on her face.

"What a coincidence, I'm also very angry right now..."

In an instant, her originally black-brown eyes suddenly turned golden, and her pupils became vertical, like a hungry wolf preparing to hunt.

Meanwhile, Liu Yan was whispering commands to his bodyguards to scout for the girl's tracks.

"Zhang San, didn't you Awaken a scout-type Superpower? Still haven't found this woman's tracks?"

"Young... Young Master, I could sense it just a moment ago, but... but now I really can't find it."

"The end of this alley is a dead end! Did she just vanish right under our noses?"

Liu Yan waved his hand at the group.

"Everyone, search this area with everything you've got. Dig three feet deep if you have to, just find her!"

This time he didn't lower his voice; he knew that the girl they had been tracking must have realized their intentions by now.

The only way now was to catch her quickly, or at the very least, eliminate her, so as not to give other rival families any leverage against the Liu family.

The alley was quite large and poorly lit. Even though it was daytime, it was still quite dark inside.

A bodyguard in black moved away from the crowd and walked to the side of a trash can, wanting to sneak a break.

After all, he didn't really approve of kidnapping an innocent girl, but unfortunately... he was living under someone else's roof and had no choice...

He checked that there was no one around and prepared to take a cigarette out of his pocket to enjoy.

Suddenly, the trash can beside him swayed slightly.

"Hmm?"

The bodyguard was startled, put away the cigarette, and cautiously leaned toward the trash can, while silently circulating his spiritual energy.

He kicked the trash can away, but there was no one behind it.

"Heh~ scaring myself..."

The next moment...

"Eh? Why is the world spinning? Uh... is that my body..."

Fresh blood splattered on the wall, appearing terrifying in the pitch-black alley.

Before long, a hair-raising chewing sound quietly echoed in the alley...
