“Someone will come sooner or later,” Jia Zizai said. “Anxin might be in danger.”

“Don’t refer to her so intimately,” Zhong Liuchuan said. “That’s my sister. She won’t be in danger for the time being.”

“Are you sure about that?” Jia Zizai asked.

“The doctor gave her something to defend herself,” Zhong Liuchuan replied.

“Self-defense things? It can’t be those cartilage fragrances, can it?” Jia Zizai asked in surprise.

“Yes, that’s the stuff,” Zhong Liuchuan said. “I heard that it’s quite good. It will trigger when something unexpected happens.”

“Yes, it does work very well, but she is still a child,” Jia Zizai said.

“Of course, I know that,” Zhong Liuchuan said. “I want her to study in a township primary school, which is close to here. I can take her there and bring her back every day.”

“Why don’t you give me what you have, and we’ll get rid of him together?” Jia Zizai suggested.

“Who? The chairman?” Zhong Liuchuan asked.

“One of the rules he made when he set up the company was to not cooperate with people from Dao,” Jia Zizai said. “Now, he has close contacts with the people there. That means there might be some shameful activities between them.”

“Is the chairman strong?” Zhong Liuchuan asked.

“Yes, he’s very powerful. He has special abilities,” Jia Zizai replied.

“What abilities?” Zhong Liuchuan asked.

“I haven’t seen them,” Jia Zizai said. “Everyone who has seen is dead.”

“How do we get rid of him?” Zhong Liuchuan asked.

“Simple, ask your master to come out and slap him to death,” Jia Zizai replied.

Lines of annoyance and helplessness appeared on Zhong Liuchuan’s forehead. “I don’t want to get him involved in this. Don’t mention it to him, either.”

“You can only rely on yourself,” Jia Zizai said. “You’ve been making progress these days, haven’t you?”

“Can you see that too?” Zhong Liuchuan was rather surprised.

“Of course. Do you think that I’m just a useless director? I still have some skills.” Jia Zizai smiled. “Think about the things that I’ve just told you.”

“OK,” Zhong Liuchuan replied.

Danger had always existed. Always having to think about how to defend against it was not a preferred way to live. The situation was like having a sword hanging overhead and always holding up a shield in case it falls. He had to find a way to remove the sword.

To be honest, Jia Zizai’s suggestion was tempting, but he wasn’t sure about Jia Zizai’s character and personality. Due to his previous reputation, he didn’t want to cooperate with the man. It was like asking a tiger for its skin.

He had another plan. It was to continue quietly enduring as he had been. He would continue to practice until his abilities had reached a level strong enough to crush them. At that time, he would attack them himself and straighten them out. Unfortunately, the process might take a long time.

After having dinner, Jia Zizai laid down on the Kang and said, “Think about it thoroughly. Don’t say things you don’t mean.”

Zhong Liuchuan paced around the room after he returned home. He went to his training room, picked up a Taoist Sutra given by Wang Yao, and read it in a low voice. He had to stay calm.

At the northern end of the village, a car stopped. An exquisitely dressed beautiful woman got out of the car.

An old villager with a cow looked at the woman and exclaimed, “What a pretty girl!”

The girl asked for directions from the old man and got back in the car. The car stopped in the middle of the village. The woman got out of the car again. “Here it is.”

She took a cellphone out of her pocket and opened it. Ring! A crisp ringtone rang out from the cellphone.

“Blue sky with white clouds floating. Lovely birds, who are they singing for? Lalala... Lalala...”

Jia Zizai was lying down singing with his eyes closed. The door suddenly opened with a creak. “Oh, have you thought it through?”

He quickly realized something was not right. He struggled to get up and saw a beautifully dressed person standing in front of him.

“Why are you here?” he asked.

The woman took off her sunglasses and looked carefully at Jia Zizai. She reached out her hand and slapped him in the face, pushing him to the ground.

“You’re quite capable, Jia Zizai, living so comfortably in such a small mountain village,” the woman coldly said. “Did you think I wouldn’t find you?”

“No, honey, you’re finally here,” he replied. “Quick, quick, untie me.”

Although the woman was furious, she untied the rope around his hands.

Mmm, muack!

He hugged the woman and kissed her hard. “I’ve missed you so much!”

“Cut it out, and stop acting,” the woman said. “Why do you smell so strong?”

“I haven’t taken a bath for more than 10 days. How can I not smell?” Jia Zizai twisted his wrists. His body was still weak.

“Why are you trapped here?” she asked.

“It’s a long story,” he said.

The door outside creaked again.

“Somebody’s here,” Jia Zizai said.

Zhong Liuchuan heard a sound when he entered the next room. As soon as he saw the woman, he was ready for battle. “Oh, it’s you!”

“Zhong Liuchuan can trap you?” The woman glanced at Zhong Liuchuan and turned her head to Jia Zizai beside her. “Have you been drugged?”

“It’s not him. It’s his master,” Jia Zizai said.

“Master? Do you still have a master?” she asked.

“I got one recently,” Zhong Liuchuan replied with a laugh. “Now that Miss Hu is here, why don’t you stay for some time too?”

“Stay for some time in such a place?” The woman looked at the dilapidated courtyard. “I’m not used to it.”

“Let’s go.” She held up Jia Zizai and wanted to leave. She pointed to Zhong Liuchuan at the side and said, “And, you, come with me. Don’t force me to make a move.

“Oh, I’d like to see you try,” Zhong Liuchuan said.

“Oh?” After hearing that, the woman stopped and looked at Zhong Liuchuan carefully. “Interesting.”

“Mei, you can’t hurt him,” Jia Zizai said.

“I know.” The woman attacked after she had spoken. She was fast and came to Zhong Liuchuan in an instant.

“So quick!” Zhong Liuchuan quickly dodged.

A glimmer of light flashed. The woman sighed softly.

Tss, huu...

The two figures moved vertically and horizontally in the small courtyard at a fast speed.

Ding! Ding! Ding! A crisp noise suddenly sounded. A short knife appeared in the woman’s hand. It was long and sharp.

When the two of them parted, the woman said in surprise, “I always thought you only had second-rate skills. I didn’t expect that you had met the threshold of first-class.”

Zhong Liuchuan did not speak. He silently adjusted his breathing and stared at the woman in front of him. He had only heard of her methods. “Phantom” was her title. She was extremely fast like a ghost’s shadow. He was just barely able to keep up with her speed.

“Tsk, your master is indeed powerful!” Jia Zizai, who was sitting to the side, exclaimed.

“What master?” Zhong Liuchuan asked.

“Alright, Mei, stop it,” Jia Zizai said.

After hearing that, the woman lowered her knife and came to Jia Zizai’s side. She asked, “What’s wrong with you? Why are you breathing so fast?”

“Someone has put a limit on my body, and I feel weak.” Jia Zizai took a deep breath. He looked at Zhong Liuchuan, who was a few steps away on the other side and asked, “Do you want to try again?”

“No, I’m not her match,” Zhong Liuchuan said as he shook his head.

“Alright, let’s go to your room and have a cup of tea,” Jia Zizai said.

Zhong Liuchuan agreed and took them up to his yard, but his guard was always up.

“You don’t have to be so nervous. Mei won’t attack again,” Jia Zizai said as he sat down on the sofa. “It is more comfortable on the sofa. The mud Kang is somewhat hard and uncomfortable.”

“Have some tea.” Zhong Liuchuan poured a cup of tea for each of them.

“Thank you,” the woman said.

“Drink it. It’s not poisoned.” Jia Zizai looked at the woman’s cautious appearance beside him and drank his tea. “Since Mei is here, what do you think of my suggestion?”

Zhong Liuchuan looked at them and shook his head. “I’m not sure about its success rate.”

“What suggestion?” The woman put down her cup.

“Let’s work together to get rid of the boss,” Jia Zizai said.

“What? Are you crazy?” The woman was shocked. “Do you know what he is capable of?”

“I don’t know, but Mei, you know, right?” Jia Zizai asked.

“I know, which is why I said you’re crazy,” the woman said. “His ability is too special.”

“What ability?” Jia Zizai asked.

“Swords and guns don’t harm him, and poisons will not kill him,” the woman said.

“How can that be?” Jia Zizai sat upright after hearing that.

“I saw with my own eyes, so how can it be fake?” she asked. “The bullets did not penetrate his body at all. They only left some scratch marks on his skin.”
