247: Is someone targeting me?

"It is... but someone saw the teachers and students of Nanming No. 1 High School returning to Nanming City from outside the city..." Feng Lifeng said, bracing himself.

"Don't tell me this mission has failed again?!" Feng Guang instantly exploded upon hearing this, roaring loudly.

"This has yet to be verified, but..."

"But what?!"

"Our scouts found that Tu Ya was not among the returning group; he has likely been exposed. And when I tried to contact the Eldest Young Master just now, his phone wouldn't go through..."

"What?! Feng Qin?! He couldn't have had an accident, could he?!" Feng Guang roared.

"Please rest assured, Family Head! The Eldest Young Master's cultivation has reached the Peak of the Martial Ancestor realm, and he is just a step away from becoming a Martial General. He also carries a Grade 3 Enhancer that can boost him by a whole major rank. His combat power far exceeds those two teachers from Nanming No. 1 High School. With Tu Ya acting from the shadows, there's no way anything could have happened! I estimate that some accident occurred during the operation, damaging his phone and making it impossible to get through..." Feng Lifeng analyzed.

"Then how do you explain the teachers and students of Nanming No. 1 High School returning safely to Nanming City while we can't contact our people?" Feng Guang stood up, agitated.

"Family Head, I will immediately take men to the scene to investigate and then report back!" Feng Lifeng didn't waste any more words and said decisively.

"Now! Immediately! Right away! Even if you can't catch the students from Nanming No. 1 High School, you must capture a group of Hunters in the wilderness to complete the task! Also, you must bring Qin'er back!"

"Yes! I understand! Please rest assured, Family Head!" Feng Lifeng gave his guarantee and hurriedly left... Watching Feng Lifeng depart, Feng Guang's expression grew even more somber. With so many people unreachable, including Feng Qin, while the teachers and students of Nanming No. 1 High School returned unscathed and the mole was missing, it was certain that Feng Qin and the others must have encountered a major accident!

He thought for a moment and sent a sound transmission to Feng Lifeng: "Take a Mecha with you and be careful! The opponent likely has Martial Commander level combat power, or perhaps it's some external exotic beast!"

Feng Lifeng's heart tightened upon hearing this, and he quickly replied, "Yes! Rest assured, Family Head!"

With a Mecha by his side, his heart settled down. Whether the opponent was a Martial General or a Martial Commander, he was confident he could retreat safely!

Soon, he led a group of people in over a dozen helicopters toward Nanming City... Originally, this Mecha was one of the Feng Residence's trump cards and had never been officially used within the borders of Great Ming for fear of being targeted by the Great Ming authorities. This time, for the sake of Feng Qin, over two hundred subordinates, and the need to capture Test Subjects, Feng Guang reluctantly authorized its use!

Thinking of the Mecha, Feng Guang couldn't help but feel some regret. If he hadn't underestimated the enemy so much in the Shan Feng Forest a few days ago and had brought a Mecha, how could those little wenches like Xi Ying have been his match?

Furthermore, a Mecha could block toxins, rendering their flower water useless, and he wouldn't have been so passive then... But now that they had the upper hand, it wouldn't be easy to reclaim that precious land from them. Feng Guang pondered his strategy while looking at the data on the desk. However, he hadn't yet decided to apply for support from headquarters; after all, if he could take it all for himself, why share such a lucrative prize with headquarters?

"Eh? Is this a message from headquarters?" Feng Guang was suddenly startled. A message on the desk caught his attention. It was from the Blood Wolf Hall headquarters, but he had been so distracted earlier that he only just noticed it!

"Good! Excellent!!!" After reading the message, Feng Guang was overjoyed, and a rare smile finally appeared on his face!

As it turned out, the Blood Wolf Hall headquarters intended to trigger a massive Beast Tide in the Southern Yue City area to coordinate with the Third Prince, Prince Lu, in robbing the Prince Fus Mansion!

"Finally, I get a share of the meat!!!" Feng Guang was incredibly excited. He hadn't expected that after waiting so long, he would finally get a chance at the 'fat meat.' One must know that he was stationed here in Southern Yue City specifically to keep an eye on the lucrative Prince Fus Mansion. He had persisted in this surveillance for decades, day after day, compiling a report on the Prince Fus Mansion every single day. Now, those information files had filled several large rooms!

If headquarters' operation went smoothly and his Branch made a great contribution as an inside contact, he would surely get a significant portion of the spoils. Even a small portion would be a massive windfall!

Everyone knew how wealthy the Prince Fus Mansion was. Through decades of data collection, Feng Guang had long ago mapped out many of the Prince Fus Mansion's secret treasure locations. He would definitely keep these locations for himself and would not report them to headquarters.

"However, the message says the Beast Tide operation won't be launched until after international superstar Justin's concert tour ends. It seems I'll have to wait patiently for a while longer to get rich." Feng Guang sighed softly, suppressing his racing heart as he continued to check other materials.

He looked at the Prince Fus Mansion data sent over today and suddenly frowned slightly, muttering, "Something seems a bit off..."

He keenly discovered several anomalies. If it weren't for his long-term focus, ordinary people would find them hard to notice. Specifically, personnel movements at the Prince Fus Mansion over the past week seemed much more frequent than usual, and the volume of goods being moved was several times higher than normal! And that was just what had been observed; what if there was more that hadn't been?

Clearly, something big was happening at the Prince Fus Mansion this week!

Adding the fact that the Prince Fus Mansion's steward, Zhu Nan, had taken a team out on a private jet not long ago and only returned last weekend, it could be inferred that the changes at the Prince Fus Mansion this week were very likely related to Zhu Nan's business trip!!!

"Zhu Nan went to Fengyang last time and returned before Scar and the others made their move. What exactly happened there? How could it cause such a massive change in the Prince Fus Mansion?" Feng Guang's face darkened again. Thinking of Scar and the others' defeat in Fengyang, his heart throbbed with pain... Although Big Head and his subordinates were just small fry at a Grade 3 base, Scar, One-eye, and the Nun, along with the people they took, were core personnel from the Feng Residence. Now, they've all fallen. This is a huge loss for the Feng Residence!

What annoyed Feng Guang even more was that despite such a heavy loss, they hadn't even caught a single test subject. If today's failure of Feng Qin and the others in the Nanming wilderness and his own retreat from the Shan Feng Forest were added, the Feng Residence had suffered three major defeats in just one short week. Such a thing had never happened before!

Feng Guang suddenly felt as if an invisible hand were clutching his throat, making it difficult even to breathe... "What exactly is going on? Has someone targeted me?!!!" Feng Guang's face was as dark as water, and his whole body began to tremble slightly...
