Gu Qingluan’s gaze flickered slightly.
Hearing that there were traces of Xiaonan, she naturally felt relieved. However, seeing Feng Tianlan in such a condition made her uneasy.
There was no need to ask; she knew that his current state was definitely related to searching for Xiaonan.
She wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with her sleeve and said, “I understand. You go back to rest, and I’ll go to the northern outskirts to rescue Xiaonan immediately.”
“It’s just a slight backlash; 1 can endure it. The northern outskirts are too vast, and they are still on the move, so their location is constantly changing. 1 can’t stay at home.”
“Then go into Stellar Space to recover first. When we reach the northern outskirts and 1 can’t find Xiaonan, you can come out.”
This time, Feng Tianlan didn’t argue further.
Gu Qingluan immediately put him into Stellar Space.
Time passed faster inside Stellar Space than outside, giving him more time to recover.
“Jing Feng, 1’11 go ahead. Gather your men and go to the northern outskirts to search for Xiaonan!”
After giving her orders, Gu Qingluan was about to leave, but Feng Yuanxi hurriedly said, “Mother, I’ll go with you. Xiaonan and 1 are twins, and we can sense each other. Daddy has already used a secret technique once; it’s best not to use it a second time in a short period.”
“Alright, Yuanxi, let’s go first.”
After saying that, she picked up Feng Yuanxi and leaped onto the roof.
Han Xiao, with his white hair fluttering, had already appeared there. A cold smile played on his handsome and unrestrained face. “1’11 go with you. Whoever dares to capture the little guy has a death wish.”
Gu Qingluan didn’t refuse; having one more person meant more strength.
The three of them rushed to the northern outskirts and the forest ahead.
In a hidden cave, the scar-faced man and the tall and thin man were sitting casually.
The tall and thin man was in contact with their employer, but there was still no news from the other side.
He glanced at Gu Qin’er, who was lying drenched on the ground, with an unpleasant expression, “Why did you bring her? She’s just a burden!”
The scar-faced man scratched his nose, “It was an urgent situation, and 1 didn’t think too much. I just grabbed her along the way.”
“I thought you had a different plan for her. Since it was just a momentary mistake and not intentional, there’s no need to keep her alive to drag us down,” the tall and thin man said coldly.
“Didn’t we agree to let her go? It wouldn’t be right to kill her like this, would it? Brother, don’t be so ruthless. A little girl can’t stir up trouble. Once she’s on the ship, oh no, I mean once she submits to us, she’ll be ours in the future.”
The tall and thin man gave him a deep look.
Just then, the jade slip in his hand suddenly lit up.
It was a message from their employer.
The tall and thin man scanned the contents of the jade slip with his divine sense, and a faint smile appeared on his lips. “The employer agreed and is offering to add 50% more to our commission.”
“Damn, they agreed so readily? If 1 had known, you should have asked for more earlier.”
The tall and thin man remained noncommittal, sighing softly. “What a pity.”
The original commission was already exorbitant, more than ten times what they had received for previous tasks. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have taken the risk of capturing Feng Tianlan’s son.
Little did they know that with the commission already so high, a further increase of 50% would be accepted so readily.
“How about you try negotiating for a bit more? Maybe you can earn some extra.”
“Let’s not push our luck.” Though the tall and thin man felt regretful, he was clear-headed. The more the other party could offer in terms of commission, the deeper their influence must be.
They absolutely couldn’t afford to offend the employer for the sake of a little extra profit.
Upon hearing this, the scar-faced man reluctantly wiped his nose with the back of his hand and said, “Fine, let’s go and deliver this kid.”
The tall and thin man carried the unconscious Gu Xiaonan on his back. When he saw the scar-faced man heading to fetch Gu Qin’er, he felt displeased. “Leave her behind. If you like her, you can come back for her after we complete the mission.”
The scar-faced man shrugged, “Alright, your call.”
As they were carrying Gu Xiaonan and had just left the cave, they were suddenly ambushed.
They were used to living on the edge, honing their agility and intuition, so they sensed the oncoming danger and swiftly dodged.
After evading the surprise attack, the scar-faced man took a closer look and couldn’t help but gasp in shock..
