Feeling the presence of the light, Xiao Yefeng immediately tensed up. In the narrow space, he could only draw a concealed dagger from his chest, holding it in his mouth as he quietly approached. At the same time, he was worried that in this cramped ventilation duct, he couldn't use his Feng Shui Techniques. If he killed this person, he would expose himself, and that would be disastrous. Moreover, to remain quietly hidden and gather information, he hadn't brought any rescue equipment, making the situation even more difficult.
Meanwhile, inside the ventilation fan, Han Fei was also nervously retreating. Unlike Xiao Yefeng, who had circled around before turning back to climb this way, Han Fei could only go back the way she came. The narrow duct made it somewhat challenging for Xiao Yefeng to crawl through, but for Han Fei, despite her slender frame allowing her to move easily, turning around was impossible. She could crawl forward quickly, but retreating was slow.
The most critical point was that Han Fei had already heard noises coming from her ventilation passage. Mice couldn't possibly be here; the only explanation was that she had been discovered.
Like Xiao Yefeng, Han Fei drew a hidden dagger from her waist and crouched at a corner, waiting. This was a necessary path; Han Fei believed that whoever was pursuing her would surely appear here. At that moment, she planned to seize the opportunity for a lethal strike and escape unscathed. After all, the information she had obtained was too important; she needed to relay it back to her sister. She never expected that the young master would do something like this.
At this moment, the dagger that Xiao Yefeng had been holding in his mouth was now in his right hand. The person from the True Spirit Realm lay in ambush at this corner. Using Observer's Eye, Xiao Yefeng had confirmed the person's position. Taking the initiative was crucial; he wouldn't let this ambusher catch him off guard. Xiao Yefeng decided to strike first.
Pressing against the ventilation pipe, Xiao Yefeng used his middle finger as a bow and drew a Flying Needle from his belt as an arrow. Channeling Qi into it, he released the Flying Needle like a bolt of lightning that pierced through two layers of metal at the corner. The moment the first layer of metal was penetrated, Han Fei sensed danger and instinctively shrank back, raising her dagger to meet the incoming Flying Needle.
"Clang!"
A metallic clash echoed as sparks flew where the Flying Needle met the dagger. The Flying Needle was deflected by Han Fei's dagger and fell in front of her just as Xiao Yefeng lunged forward. His dagger transformed into a streak of light aimed at Han Fei's neck. However, in that instant, thanks to his enhanced night vision ability, Xiao Yefeng realized that this person was none other than White Flower from earlier in the hall. He hesitated and shifted from attack to defense.
Xiao Yefeng saw White Flower—Han Fei—but Han Fei did not possess Xiao Yefeng's enhanced night vision capabilities. Sensing that someone had just ambushed her with a Flying Needle and was now charging at her, Han Fei prepared to fight for her life. A faint Azure Light glimmered on her Blade as she channeled Qi into it; if Xiao Yefeng didn't block it now, he would be dead.
"Clang!"
The two daggers clashed—one attacking and one defending—creating another spark as their tips met. Xiao Yefeng's dagger was made of Cloud Sea V-Alloy; his hastily summoned Qi blade dissipated into nothingness upon impact. As Han Fei attempted to counterattack, Xiao Yefeng seized her right arm holding the dagger with one hand while restricting her movement due to the limited space. He then pressed his hand over Han Fei's mouth and said urgently, "Don't scream! It's me!"
The familiar aura and voice stunned Han Fei for a moment before she instantly relaxed. She didn't even realize why she felt at ease; after all, this was just someone she had met twice before.
After releasing his hand from Han Fei's alluring Crimson Lips, she exclaimed in surprise, "How could it be you!"
"How coincidental! I was just thinking the same thing. No, how come you are here too, Sister?" Xiao Yefeng initially wanted to call her White Flower, but realizing it would be impolite, he settled for Sister instead.
At that moment, Han Fei's face was filled with anger as she exclaimed, "You’re the sister here! I’m Han Fei!" It struck Han Fei as odd that she had so easily revealed her name to this man.
However, Xiao Yefeng smiled and said, "I’m Xiao Yefeng. Well, now we know each other. Do you have a way out? I’m trapped over there, and if I force my way through, someone will notice!"
"Exactly! We've wasted so much time; Brother Seven might not hold on much longer! Come on, there’s an exit this way!" Han Fei said, retreating while casting a fierce glare at Xiao Yefeng.
Han Fei had come here disguised as a seductress. If she dressed too conservatively, she would stand out and attract attention. In fact, with her low-waisted hot pants and a short-sleeved top that exposed her belly button and shoulders, she was already considered modest compared to the other women who had come with similar intentions. Most of them wore skirts that barely covered their thighs and tops that left little to the imagination.
As they crawled in opposite directions—Xiao Yefeng moving forward while Han Fei retreated—Xiao Yefeng couldn't help but notice the two swaying forms before him. Under Han Fei's murderous gaze, he pretended not to see the dark surroundings. This was the only way Han Fei would believe him. Unfortunately, in her naive thinking, she forgot how he could possibly know she was the woman from earlier in the pitch-blackness.
The bright atmosphere around them made it hard for Xiao Yefeng, a normal man, to focus. Although Han Fei's figure wasn't as perfect as Liu Yiyi's or as impressive as Na's, and lacked some of Consort Mi's grace, having a beautiful woman around was certainly better than facing a group of thugs!
Soon enough, they reached the ventilation shaft. After handing it to Xiao Yefeng, Han Fei jumped down first. With Han Fei lending a hand, Xiao Yefeng managed to secure himself in the shaft. He stood on the flush button of the toilet with one foot while the other dangled in mid-air. Suddenly, loud commotion erupted outside, causing Xiao Yefeng's foot to accidentally press down on the flush button.
The sound of rushing water echoed through the space, silencing the noise outside. The sound of several people bursting into the restroom reached their ears. At that moment, both were in a rather awkward position; Xiao Yefeng's clothes were wrinkled from squeezing through the ventilation shaft while Han Fei looked even worse—her loose top had rolled up from crawling.
Her black underwear was crumpled beneath her clothing, and her hot pants were askew. Her fiery red hair was damp with sweat from the tension in the shaft. As for Xiao Yefeng, his disheveled appearance was somewhat concealed by his tactical belt under his outerwear. They both looked remarkably disheveled; however, this would become a significant highlight for their upcoming performance.
A series of loud bangs echoed as someone forcefully kicked open bathroom doors one after another. The restroom they occupied was the last one remaining. Whispering a few words into Han Fei's ear, Xiao Yefeng adjusted his tactical belt to his abdomen area. Before anyone outside could kick down their door, he swung it open and stepped out.
Seeing a group of bruised thugs before him, he awkwardly remarked, "Brothers, you’ve worked hard! Oh wow! First time in a ladies' restroom—nice decor!"
As he attempted to walk past them, Bald Qiang stood at the doorway with a half-broken metal baseball bat in hand and blocked Xiao Yefeng's path.
Seeing Bald Qiang blocking the way, Xiao Yefeng wore an impatient expression and said, "What’s the matter? Are you so infatuated that you can’t even tell when you’ve entered the wrong restroom?"
Bald Qiang stared at Xiao Yefeng for a moment but said nothing. He didn’t move aside either; instead, he signaled for one of his men inside the restroom to approach the door that Xiao Yefeng had just exited. Just as the man placed his hand on the door, Han Fei emerged, her hot pants adjusting as she stepped out, her face glowing. She showed no reaction upon seeing so many men in the women’s restroom. Walking up to Xiao Yefeng, she wrapped her arms around his right arm.
Then, Han Fei shyly said, "Darling, why don’t we just get a room? It’s really uncomfortable here! The space is too cramped, and you know what I mean!"
At that moment, Xiao Yefeng turned to Bald Qiang and the others and remarked, "Friends! Did you hear that? You really don’t take the service industry seriously enough. Shouldn’t there be some soft chairs in the restroom?"
With that, Xiao Yefeng pulled Han Fei out of the restroom. Bald Qiang stepped aside with a mix of admiration and jealousy. After all, Han Fei's attire and alluring beauty were enough to stir feelings even in someone like him, who had seen countless women. Especially with the flush on Han Fei's face just now, it made Bald Qiang feel a bit restless. After Xiao Yefeng and Han Fei left, the group of thugs looked at Bald Qiang.
Bald Qiang rubbed his face where a shoe print was visible and said, "What are you looking at me for? It’s just one restroom! Everyone find something to do! If nothing happens in the bar tonight, I’ll treat everyone! My treat, let’s all go have some fun!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the thugs erupted into applause. A few of them, whose mouths were slightly crooked from earlier scuffles, howled excitedly. However, they were unaware that with Xiao Yefeng and Han Fei gone, there would be no more troublemakers tonight.
With his arm around Han Fei's slender waist, Xiao Yefeng swayed as they walked out of Misty Bar. The fight at the entrance had already concluded; there wouldn’t be any large-scale bloodshed between baseball bats. However, Xiao Yefeng was curious about what had severed Bald Qiang's metal bat. Although he only caught a fleeting glimpse earlier, he sensed that whatever caused such a situation must have been a sharp steel knife.
As they turned through several alleys, Xiao Yefeng and Han Fei found themselves in another dark alley. In fact, throughout their journey, they had already separated; yet somehow they ended up together at every turn, indicating they were on the same path.
At this moment in the alley, two groups were eyeing each other warily. Each group was tending to their own injuries on opposite sides of the alley. When Xiao Yefeng and Han Fei appeared, both groups instantly stood up. The simultaneous rise caused both sides to be on guard against each other. Consequently, Xiao Yefeng and Han Fei could only return to their respective groups.
