C480 Saving the Damsel in Distress!(1)
"Don't let anything happen, don't let anything happen..."
Faang Xuan's heart was gripped tightly as he drove the black Audi that he had casually pried open. He had never stopped accelerating and pressing the accelerator.
Going out at this time and still driving on the highway like this was undoubtedly an extremely unwise choice.
Because of Feng Wuya and Zhang Mubai's relationship, the full-time and local patrol did not participate in the siege against him. However, Zhuo family's connections were not shallow after all. After losing two important disciples of the family in a row, they had sent out a large number of experts, as well as a large amount of manpower borrowed from a group.
An invisible giant net had been set up, waiting for Faang Xuan to throw himself into chaos. With the Zhuo family's strength, as long as Faang Xuan was delayed for a short period of time, it would be a devastating blow to them.
Regarding these matters, Faang Xuan naturally knew about it. With his ability to hide, he was the number one assassin in the past. It was not impossible to avoid these roadblocks and reach Ye Ying's current apartment safely. However, if he planned everything from the beginning to the end, what about the time?
Would the Zhuo family give him sufficient time?
"Wait for me... Ye Ying, you must wait for me..."
He kept speeding up. The needle on the gas meter was already full. An Audi that was clearly a business car was driven out of the speed of an F1 sports car by him.
Faang Xuan's palm, which was holding the steering wheel, was sweating. He kept praying in his heart, but even if he drove the accelerator to the end and drove at a speed of nearly 300 miles per hour on the street, he was still very scared.
Yes, he was scared.
From the beginning to the end, Faang Xuan had never forgotten Ye Ying, but because he did not want to disturb her peaceful life, he did not arrange for the Zhang family to protect him.
Originally, Faang Xuan thought that the whole matter had nothing to do with Ye Ying. No matter how shameless the Zhuo family was, they wouldn't use an ordinary girl as an excuse.
Unfortunately, their self-righteous thoughts eventually led to such an outcome.
The strength of the Zhuo family, especially the all-pervasive information, was something he had never thought of. And he should have thought of it since a long time ago. Since he could use the ordinary disciples of other families to attack them... Why couldn't the other party take revenge on the people he cared about?
Not caring about any shocking news or exposing his whereabouts, not even caring about the traffic rules along the way, he finally allowed himself to get infinitely close to Ye Ying's apartment in the shortest amount of time.
Of course, this kind of action wasn't without a price.
Even though up until now, there had not been a single city traffic police car that had sent out signals and notifications for parking and waiting to be checked, nor was there a patrol car that was chasing him. However, that was hidden in every street and intersection. Evico, who came out from time to time, replaced one by one. The drivers of each car had sharp eyes and sharp eyes.
Everything proved that Faang Xuan had been discovered. Perhaps he was not far away, or perhaps... Just below Ye Ying's building, the net would tighten. The reason why it was only hanging far away and not being released was because it was carrying out the preparatory work of the invigilator.
"You are very afraid?"
Suddenly, an old voice echoed for a long time. The voice did not come from the air headset that was connected to the insolent person, but came from his own spiritual world, his sea of consciousness.
It was the Ancestral Dragon!
"Old man, why did you come out at this time to join in the fun? You still want to persuade me?"
He was anxious about Ye Ying's comforting words, so naturally, he did not have a good tone. Furthermore, the so-called ancestor emperor, Ying Zheng, was looking for him for an endless reason to persuade him to practice that so-called "forgetting."
If he really became a person without sorrow, joy, and regret, no resentment, no infatuation... Wait, he was a monster that was even more empty than the people outside. So what if he had the strength that was comparable to Milla?
"Faang Xuan, I am here to help you."
The Ancestor Dragon didn't get angry because of Faang Xuan's rudeness. His voice was as gentle as ever, and carried an irresistible warmth. "Do you know that you have fallen into a huge net?"
"Nonsense. Do you think I'm an idiot? So what?"
Faang Xuan snorted. How could he not feel the secret tracker outside the car?
But what did that have to do with it?
The woman in the past, Soong Tingting, who loved him deeply. Even though she knew that she was dead, she still stubbornly gave up her life. The condition that she sacrificed herself for was merely hoping that Milla would let her live for a few more years.1
People like Faang Xuan rarely had such negative emotions like guilt in their hearts, but only Soong Tingting, the woman who had given up everything for him without any regrets. Whenever Faang Xuan thought of her, his heart would feel a twinge of pain.
That year, that girl, that love... Faang Xuan would never be able to repay her in this life!
He had missed a chance to regret. What about this time?
When facing a woman like Soong Tingting, didn't Ye Ying also have deep feelings for him?
Then what did it matter if she risked her life to save her?
"Foolish to the extreme. Faang Xuan, you made this old man look down on you!"
In his sea of consciousness, the Ancestral Dragon's voice was filled with disdain and undisguised disdain.
"Shut up! What do you know?! If you continue to talk nonsense, get the hell out of my consciousness!"
Faang Xuan was frustrated. Of course, he understood the meaning of the Ancestral Dragon. It was nothing more than mocking himself for being a man who would risk his life for an extremely ordinary woman no matter how one looked at it. Such behavior, in the eyes of the mighty Ancestor Dragon... There was no value at all.
But what in the world was the true value of living?
Must one be like that old fellow who had awakened the power of the world, drunk, and laid on the knees of a beauty, doing a great deed that could shake the heavens and the earth and make ghosts and gods weep? Was there any value at all?
Faang Xuan had always scoffed at such a statement. He had never been a man who yearned to do great things. All he wanted in his life was to eat three meals to fill his stomach, to be able to embrace his loved ones. He had just been living the life of a deity that envied the love of the couple and not the immortals.
"Hehe... Faang Xuan, this old man isn't saying that you are doing the wrong thing for the sake of a beautiful woman. When a man does things, he only wants to be happy, but you died just like that. Is it really helpful to the people you care about? "
"Shut up, stop talking! Stop talking!"
Faang Xuan howled in his heart. The words of the Ancestral Dragon had revealed the nature of the matter, and it was something that Faang Xuan didn't want to think about.
That's right. Blind sacrifices were useless, but if he didn't do so, what else could he do?
Go and beg Feng Wuya? Beg Zhang Mubai?
Waking like a pug? Begging them to save his woman?
It was not that she could not let go of that face. If this could be exchanged for Ye Ying's safety, Faang Xuan would not care about the so-called dignity and face that he could sell to him. However, he knew that even if he really knelt in front of them, two old men who only knew the so-called business interests, or their own family interests... They definitely wouldn't agree to it.
Therefore, at the moment when his blood was boiling, Faang Xuan acted impulsively.
There was always one thing in a person's life. No matter how smart or calm he was, he could break down instantly. Even if he was facing endless danger, even if he was facing life and death, he would still persist in doing it!
"Faang Xuan, let me ask you, do you really want to save her, or is it just an excuse for you to escape reality and responsibility by saving her?"
The question came from the bottom of his heart. It seemed like the Ancestral Dragon was really a worm in Faang Xuan's heart, even his thoughts were clear.
