Lan Jing has a wonderful misconception, reuniting with her mother and becoming neighbors with Ye Fan.

She hasn't fallen in love with Ye Fan yet, but she feels a sense of security being with him.

Ye Fan nodded with a smile, right now he needed to understand Shen Yan's situation.

He called Zeng Jingwei, who was a bit excited on the other end: "Brother, how do you have time to call me? I know you've been busy lately, so I didn't want to bother you. Have you watched this season's 'China's Good Voice'?"

Because Zeng Jingwei knows Ye Fan might be on a special mission, she generally doesn't bother him proactively.

Ye Fan said, "I haven't had the time yet, there's something I want to ask you, have you been in touch with your senior sister Shen... lately?"

"Senior Sister Shen, didn't she say she was on a world tour before? Has she come back?" Zeng Jingwei was not aware of Shen Yan's situation.

"Alright, it's nothing, if you see Teacher and Mistress, remember to greet them well." After Ye Fan finished speaking, he exchanged a few polite words and then hung up the call.

Ye Fan said to Li Zhaojun, "It seems Shen Yan is really in trouble, let's go and verify if that person is truly Shen Yan, I have a feeling it's her, but I'm not sure."

...

Li Zhaojun, Min Shang, Lan Jing, and Qing Xu left the hotel together with Ye Fan.

They didn't immediately go to Shen Yan's previous hideout. With the Spiritual Energy Ye Fan instilled in Shen Yan as a guide, as long as she hasn't left the Earth, Ye Fan can track her.

Ye Fan drove, Li Zhaojun sat in the front seat, Min Shang, Lan Jing, and Qing Xu sat in the back. Together, they headed to the mall so Shen Xi could buy more clothes for Li Zhaojun and the others.

Originally, Sun Ning could have handled it, but Sun Ning didn't know women's preferences.

Among the women, only Qing Xu cared a lot about clothes, having a youthful mentality, she bought a lot of things after reaching the mall.

After all the clothes were bought, the "night clothing" Ye Fan had Sun Ning prepare was also ready.

It was specifically prepared by Ye Fan for convenient outings at night, the clothes were completely black and had a black cloth mask that only exposed the eyes, making it convenient anywhere.

Being practitioners, they usually only needed to put the clothes on when going out, changing outfits was also convenient.

After changing into the night clothing, Ye Fan took them from the hotel's back window using his sword.

Not long after, they arrived at a parking lot where Shen Yan was hiding.

Ye Fan used a Spiritual Energy net to conceal the presence of himself, Li Zhaojun, and the others, they went through the parking lot, and in front was a door, directly connecting to a basement.

When Ye Fan opened the basement door, it was dark and eerie. As they walked to the deepest part of the basement, the sound of a whip hitting skin could be heard, accompanied by an old man's voice saying, "Not speaking yet? Where did you hide the stuff!"

Ye Fan could sense that among those being whipped were people from the Hua Sect, including Shen Yan and three ninjas from before, as well as others who had failed in their missions.

"Zhaojun, wait here, I'll go in and see myself."

Ye Fan stood outside the interrogation room, the old man inside originally asking questions suddenly became alert and shouted, "Who's there?"

The sound of whipping inside also stopped, and a woman asked a question in Japanese.

Ye Fan immediately realized that this whole plan was indeed related to the Japanese.

"Kid, hiding is not a good habit, do you think you can disappear in front of me?" The old man was also in black clothes and wore a mask, with a sword at his waist, in the style of a Japanese ninja.

Ye Fan walked in, directly presenting his figure, many ninjas present became panic-stricken, not having expected a living person to stand before them, the elder aside.

Ye Fan scrutinized everyone present, there were over ten ninjas, and seven or eight individuals bound to torture racks with special metal devices, including Shen Yan.

At this moment, Shen Yan wore a body-tight suit, but it was already covered with many bloodstains. Even though ninjas practiced techniques unimaginable to ordinary people, like flying and invisibility, they were still flesh and blood, and could be injured.

"You know I'm Chinese?" Ye Fan asked.

The old man laughed, "Being on China's territory, someone hiding and coming in must be a Chinese. Are you Ye Fan?"

"Yes, I am," Ye Fan replied. "I've come to retrieve someone from you."

"Retrieve someone from us, seeking death!" The elder didn't say this, instead, a woman beside him drew a sword and slashed towards Ye Fan.

Her swordplay was unique, seemingly coming from one direction, but she practiced Ninjutsu, and the sword seemed to become six or seven in mid-air, most being just shadows. As the sword approached Ye Fan, he casually lifted a hand and pinned the sword between his fingers, flicking it lightly, sending both sword and woman flying.

With her cultivation, she could let go of the sword and be safe, but adhering to the principle of life bound to the sword, letting go would mean self-sacrifice.

"Decent cultivation, but quite rudimentary," the old man noted, "What other skills do you have?"

Ye Fan sneered, "You can't even imagine my abilities!"

Though the elder's cultivation was high, he was merely a ninja. Ye Fan didn't know the pinnacle of ninja practice, but assumed it did not reach the Golden Core Stage.

However, he underestimated the elder's cultivation when he used Spiritual Energy to attack the elder and untie Shen Yan and others; Shen Yan and the few ninjas escaped, but the elder deflected Ye Fan's Spiritual Energy.

"You're a Chinese cultivator?" The elder grew tense.

While he had avoided an earlier attack, his Qi-Blood was also churning, Ye Fan's cultivation far exceeded his expectations.

"Regardless of whether I'm a cultivator, I won't let you leave here alive." Ye Fan asserted with undeniable authority, "You've shed blood on my Chinese soil, you should be buried here!"

A young male ninja nearby shouted, "Brat, don't be arrogant!"

Ye Fan exerted a burst formed by Spiritual Energy, the immense pressure threw the young ninja against the corner, struggling a bit, he spat blood and dissolved into a pool of it.

Ye Fan knew the ninjas had a special substance in them, if they failed, they wouldn't survive, it made them disappear, preventing their opponents from tracing them.

"Shen Yan, come over!" Ye Fan didn't immediately attack, but said to "Shen Yan."

"Shen Yan" stepped towards Ye Fan, but he had already confirmed she wasn't the real Shen Yan after she tried to ambush him before. How could the real Shen Yan be a Japanese spy?

When "Shen Yan" was about three meters from Ye Fan, she suddenly lunged at his chest like a ghost.

Ye Fan didn't move, his Spiritual Energy net simply repelled "Shen Yan," knocking her to the ground, unable to rise.
