Chapter 1868: Did You Offend Someone?

~8 min read 1,470 words

As time passed second by second, Fei Kexin became increasingly nervous and flustered.

Having not seen any news of Luo Jiacheng for a long time, and with the phone still unable to get through, she, who was uneasy in her heart, hurriedly sent a message to her grandfather, Fei Jianzhong, reporting the sudden situation that had just occurred.

At this moment, the difficulty of the matter had exceeded Fei Kexin's ability and the strength of others around her. She could only seek guidance and help from her grandfather.

At this time, Fei Jianzhong was lying half-reclined on the bed, and the servant was serving him, feeding him special nutritional breakfast one spoonful at a time.

Recently, his health had been deteriorating.

After waking up every day, he didn't even have the strength to go out for a walk, and even sitting still without moving consumed a lot of energy.

Therefore, he spent most of his time resting in bed.

His healthcare team had just finished a comprehensive physical condition assessment for him two days ago.

Experts believed that his life had entered the terminal stage of natural aging, and the remaining time could no longer be calculated in years.

Therefore, at this moment, Fei Jianzhong only looked forward to two things.

One was that his granddaughter Fei Kexin would have good news.

The other was that he could successfully bid for the Rejuvenating Pill at the auction at the end of the month!

Suddenly receiving the message from Fei Kexin, Fei Jianzhong couldn't help but feel a bit excited.

He hurriedly picked up his mobile phone with trembling hands and clicked on the message himself.

However, when he saw the content, he was struck by lightning, and the mobile phone slipped from his hand uncontrollably!

"Luo Jiacheng actually disappeared... This... how is this possible..."

Fei Jianzhong was shocked, so he immediately said to the servant beside him: "Quick! Go and invite Master Yuan!"

Soon, a middle-aged man wearing a black Tang suit and black cloth shoes walked into the room.

This middle-aged man looked to be in his forties, walking not fast, but as if carrying a gust of wind.

This person was Yuan Zixu, the personal bodyguard who had been by Fei Jianzhong's side for many years.

Yuan Zixu's actual age this year was already sixty-six.

Twenty-six years ago, he entered the world to protect Fei Jianzhong under the order of his sect. Because he was brave and resourceful, he was of great help to Fei Jianzhong and was respectfully called Master Yuan by Fei Jianzhong.

Twenty-six years ago, Yuan Zixu had already broken through to a six-star martial artist. Over these twenty-six years, because most of his energy was used to protect and assist Fei Jianzhong, the speed of his cultivation progress had slowed down significantly. To this day, he had only broken through to a seven-star martial artist.

And Luo Jiacheng was his fellow apprentice.

According to the sect's requirements, Yuan Zixu was originally scheduled to serve the Fei family for thirty years and would return to the sect for closed-door cultivation in four years.

Therefore, the sect had sent Luo Jiacheng a few years ago, preparing to take over his shift.

Luo Jiacheng had originally spent most of his time protecting Fei Jianzhong's eldest son, that is, Fei Kexin's eldest uncle. This time, Fei Kexin was ordered to go to China to find clues about the Rejuvenating Pill, and Fei Jianzhong specifically asked Luo Jiacheng to protect Fei Kexin's safety all the way.

But he didn't expect that Luo Jiacheng would disappear inexplicably after only a few days in Jin Ling!

However, at this time, Yuan Zixu didn't know about Luo Jiacheng's encounter. He walked to Fei Jianzhong's bedside, bowed and saluted slightly, then asked, "Master Fei, why did you call me over so early? What are your instructions?"

Fei Jianzhong hurriedly said, "Master Yuan, Kexin just sent a message saying that Jiacheng has disappeared! Kexin suspects that he has met with an accident!"

"What?!" Yuan Zixu was stunned for a moment and blurted out, "Impossible! Jiacheng is a six-star martial artist, and his strength is unmatched in the Chinese martial arts field. How could he meet with an accident in China!"

Fei Jianzhong said, "Kexin said it very firmly. She had an appointment to eat with someone, and in the time it took to eat a meal, Jiacheng disappeared when she came out, and the phone also showed that it was out of service. If this isn't meeting with an accident, what is it?"

Yuan Zixu was stunned for a moment, then frowned tightly and said in a low voice, "Given Jiacheng's personality, he wouldn't leave his post without reason, and he wouldn't lose contact without reason. If both situations happen at the same time, I'm afraid it really is meeting with an accident... This matter seems to be very tricky indeed..."

Fei Jianzhong blurted out, "Master Yuan, have you ever heard of any masters in China whose strength exceeds Jiacheng?"

"Never heard of it," Yuan Zixu said, "As far as I know, China doesn't even have a five-star martial artist, let alone, if it's as Miss Kexin said, she was in a private room separated by a wall, but never heard any movement of fighting, which proves that if there is really a mastermind behind this, the strength of the mastermind is far more than just exceeding Jiacheng!"

As he spoke, he said with a solemn expression, "Being able to kill or kidnap Jiacheng silently, even I can't do it! Because even if Jiacheng's strength is not as good as mine, he can at least fight me for dozens of rounds, and if the two of us fight with all our might, the movement would be so great that I'm afraid it could be heard from several kilometers away."

Yuan Zixu's analysis shocked Fei Jianzhong. He asked, "Master Yuan, in your opinion, if someone can really kill or kidnap Jiacheng silently, what level would this person be?"

"What level..." Yuan Zixu's eyelids trembled slightly, and he said very seriously, "Within the Ming Realm, I'm afraid it's very difficult to do it, so the other party's strength is at least in the Dark Realm!"

"Dark Realm..." Fei Jianzhong muttered, "Didn't Master Yuan say that Dark Realm masters haven't appeared in the world for at least ten years..."

"Yes..." Yuan Zixu nodded and said in a deep voice, "More than ten years ago, my master mentioned in a letter that the only few Dark Realm masters had disappeared, and to this day there is no news."

Fei Jianzhong hurriedly asked, "Then could Jiacheng's disappearance be related to a Dark Realm master?"

Yuan Zixu looked solemn and said, "It's not impossible... It's just that I can't figure out, even if there is really a Dark Realm master in Jin Ling, why would he attack Jiacheng? Jiacheng has only been in Jin Ling for a few days. Could it be that he offended someone?"

After saying this, he hurriedly said to Fei Jianzhong, "Master Fei, please ask Miss Kexin if she has offended anyone in Jin Ling these days. I believe that even if there is a Dark Realm master, he wouldn't attack a junior for no reason, unless there is some grievance or misunderstanding!"

Fei Jianzhong nodded and hurriedly said, "I'll ask Kexin right away!"

At the same time.

In the farmhouse courtyard on the side of National Highway 104 in Jin Ling, Fei Kexin still hadn't waited for news of Luo Jiacheng.

Luo Jiacheng's phone still couldn't get through, and Chen Yingshan was trying to find a way to crack the surveillance around the farmhouse restaurant with hackers, so she didn't feed back any valuable clues.

Ye Chen, seeing Fei Kexin seemed somewhat hesitant, asked tentatively, "Miss Zhan, do you want me to accompany you to the police?"

Fei Kexin shook her head and said, "Mr. Luo has only been missing for less than half an hour, and he is an adult with full capacity for action. I guess the police won't put much energy into an adult who has only been missing for half an hour."

Ye Chen nodded slightly and lamented, "That makes sense. If you go to the police and say that a big man has been missing for half an hour, I'm afraid you'll be treated as a brain-damaged person who is teasing the police..."

Fei Kexin sighed, just about to speak, when her mobile phone suddenly received a message from her grandfather.

She had just clicked on the message when she heard Ye Chen say most of the content of the message: "Miss Zhan, did you offend someone?"

And on the message sent by her grandfather, it was written: "Kexin, did you offend someone in Jin Ling?" ===== CHAPTER 1869 =====
