Chapter 170 Searching for the Little Girl

Chapter 170 Searching for the Little Girl

"What? The little girl is missing? What happened? How did you know?" Chen Feng was a little anxious, afraid that something might have happened to the little girl. Such a cute little girl, they were just chatting and laughing together, how could she suddenly disappear?

"Don't rush. You had a fight with people from Tianqi Academy before, which caused quite a stir and was widely talked about. I heard about it and came here to see what was going on."

"But when I arrived, neither you nor the girl were there. Someone said they saw her go out with you, but now it's so dark, and you've come back, yet she hasn't shown up. What were you doing just now?" He Yi explained.

Chen Feng nodded, "So that's how it is. Just now, a white-robed monk lured me outside the city with the intention of taking my life, but I've already dealt with him. That's not important. In other words, your claim of disappearing is just your guess, and there's no real evidence."

He Yi shook her head. "No, but she left with you when you left. Now that you're back, there's still no sign of her, a little girl. It's so late, where could she have gone?"

Chen Feng thought about it carefully and realized it was indeed suspicious. Could he have been kidnapped? "Let's go and go look for him."

“Okay, you lead the way,” He Yi agreed.

Chen Feng and He Yi followed the direction out of the city, asking around as they went.

"Hello," Chen Feng stopped an old man and asked, "Have you seen a little girl? She's about this tall, with a round face, and she's very cute."

The old man waved his hand, "Never seen it."

"Ah, okay, thank you," Chen Feng said.

"Hello, have you seen a little girl, about this tall? She's the second daughter of the innkeeper over there," He Yi asked, pulling a young, strong man aside.

“No,” the young man shook his head.

"I'm sorry to have troubled you," He Yi said apologetically.

The two inquired along the way but to no avail. The main reason was that it was dark at the time, and although there were many pedestrians on the street, a little girl wandering around and playing was not conspicuous and no one would pay attention to her.

It seemed that finding the young girl would not be easy, and Chen Feng began to appear somewhat impatient.

"Have you seen a little girl, the one from the inn over there?" Chen Feng asked, pulling a young man aside.

"No." The boy waved his hand and turned to leave, but Chen Feng grabbed him, his eyes fixed on him, full of expectation, hoping for the answer he wanted. "Think about it again. A little girl, from that inn over there. Many people in the city know her, they've all eaten at her house. Think about it carefully. Just a short while ago, she was here. Think about it carefully..."

"Ugh, no, I didn't see it. I said I didn't see it, I just didn't see it. How annoying..." The boy pushed and walked away.

Chen Feng then asked another person, "Have you seen a little girl, a young lady, from that inn over there? She was here just a short while ago." Chen Feng looked at this person, his eyes filled with even stronger anticipation. "Tell me the answer you want, tell me you saw her..."

"No, I didn't see her." The man waved his hand and turned to leave. Chen Feng was disappointed once again. He was a little scared because he had watched someone take another little girl away from him, and he had never seen her since. Since then, Chen Feng had been haunted by this incident, and it had even become a shadow in his heart. He was afraid, afraid that the little girl would also disappear forever. He hoped that he could find the little girl and also find another girl... He Fei.

Seeing Chen Feng's somewhat unwell state, He Yi couldn't help but comfort him, "Chen Feng, don't worry. There are so many people on the street; surely someone has seen the girl. We'll definitely find out. Don't worry too much." He Yi knew Chen Feng well. Although he seemed carefree on the surface, he was actually extremely composed and rarely lost control. Chen Feng's current state made him somewhat worried. Perhaps this matter had touched a nerve with Chen Feng, and he was struggling to cope, which was why he was acting this way. If someone had really kidnapped the girl, how could Chen Feng rescue her in his current state?

"I'm fine." Chen Feng touched his face. "Let's keep searching!"

He Yi continued inquiring, "Hello, have you seen a little girl, about this tall..."

"Are you talking about the young girl at the inn?" the man asked.

"Yes, it's her, did you see her?" Chen Feng asked anxiously.

"I saw her; she and a person dressed in black headed out of the city."

Outside the city? Upon hearing this news, Chen Feng rushed towards the city gates, with He Yi close behind. The two secretly channeled their spiritual energy, galloping towards the city outskirts. They chased after him until they reached the city gates, where they saw a man in black carrying a little girl, walking step by step into the woods. Chen Feng thought he heard a horse neighing. Oh no! Chen Feng knew that the man in black had hidden horses outside the city and intended to escape on horseback. He had to catch up quickly…

"Chen Feng".

Someone called? Chen Feng and He Yi both stopped and turned around. Standing opposite them was a tall woman whose slender waist swayed as she walked, exuding charm and allure.

He recognized her; she was Hua Rushang, from the Ghost Doctor clan. "What is it?" Chen Feng asked, not having time for pleasantries.

"Finally found you! Where is Wu Fen? Where is he?" Hua Rushang had a mature and sophisticated voice. Just listening to her speak and watching her walk was enough to make any man's bones melt.

"I don't know." Chen Feng turned and left.

"So eager, do you have a date with your sweetheart?" Hua Rushang teased.

"I don't have time to joke with you..." Chen Feng didn't even turn his head.

Hua Rushang hurriedly went over and blocked Chen Feng's way. "It seems you really have something urgent to do. But no matter what your urgent matter is, you have to tell me about Wu Fen. If you don't tell me, you can forget about leaving." Although Hua Rushang spoke in a charming and pleasant tone, Chen Feng was afraid when she got ruthless.

What to do? If that man in black gets away, we're finished. But this woman is like a plague; we can't leave her alone. When she gets ruthless, she's truly terrifying. "I've got it!" Chen Feng pulled out his phone from his pocket. "Here's my phone. Contact him yourself."

"That's more like it." Hua Rushang took the phone and stepped aside.

Chen Feng and He Yi continued on their way. Chen Feng chuckled to himself, thinking, "Fool, cell phones don't work here."

Just as the man in black mounted his horse and was about to leave with the little girl, Chen Feng and He Yi arrived in time. Chen Feng flew to block the man in black's path, while He Yi struck the man in black off his horse from behind with a palm strike, severely injuring him.
