“Did they do that on purpose? Who’s behind them?” said Leng Shaoting. Gu Ning didn’t tell him any details, but from what he observed he could tell it wasn’t simple.

“I just had doubts at the beginning, but now I’m sure it’s a trap. I just don’t know whether the Leng family or I are the target. Although I’m not a member of the Leng family…” said Gu Ning.

“What? You’re not a member of the Leng family?” Before Gu Ning finished, Leng Shaoting interrupted and squinted at her.

Gu Ning put on a resigned look and explained. “I mean I wasn’t born in the Leng family, I just have a relationship with the Leng family. However, given what has happened recently, I think I might be the target.”

“It’s possible,” said Leng Shaoting. After all, Gu Ning had a very close relationship with the Leng family, she could be easily affected.

“So we need to investigate it. Whether it is you or the Leng family that are the target, we must catch the mastermind,” Leng Shaoting said coldly. He wouldn’t allow anyone to hurt the Leng family or Gu Ning.

Thanks to Rong Jue’s reminder, otherwise they would be in trouble!

Whether the trouble was serious or not was up to the mastermind. Since the mastermind could order the Bureau of Cultural Relics to do the job, they couldn’t be simple.

It wasn’t serious, but it wasn’t a minor problem either. After all, it was illegal.

However, how did Rong Jue know about it? Did it have something to do with the Rong family?

If it had something to do with the Rong family, why would he remind Gu Ning to be careful? Wouldn’t it ruin the Rong family’s scheme?

Or did Rong Jue hear about it by accident, and decide to kindly remind Gu Ning to protect herself?

It was possible that the Chang family was the mastermind, but the Chang family was in a mess now. It wasn’t very likely for them to target Gu Ning, who couldn’t greatly affect the Leng family.

Gu Ning had an impact, but it was not a very great impact on the Leng family.

Therefore, if anyone wanted to attack Gu Ning, they were either planning to drag the Chang family into trouble or wanted to cause trouble for the Leng family.

Either way, they had no answers so they needed to conduct an investigation.

After Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting left, they had nothing to deal with, so they directly went back to the siheyuan.

Unfortunately, they had bad luck today. Halfway on their way home, Leng Shaoting received a call from Xu Jinchen, who said that something went wrong with Xiao Nanchen. Xiao Nanchen might be possessed by something and wouldn’t stop attacking them.

Because they were all aware of the existence of monsters and people with superpowers, once Xiao Nanchen started behaving abnormally, they thought he might be possessed by a monster or a ghost.

As a result, Xiao Nanchen became incredibly strong and invulnerable. None of them could stop him.

They didn’t dare to shoot at him because they didn’t want to injure him.

Even though Xiao Nanchen was attacking them now, he wasn’t himself. The other teammates were clear-headed, so they wouldn’t injure him.

Hearing that, Leng Shaoting immediately went to their military base, because the team was currently staying there.

Gu Ning was also angry when she heard the news. She hoped that no one would be seriously injured.

Because it was an emergency, Leng Shaoting drove as fast as possible, but they still felt as if it was slow.

They were in the city center, so they couldn’t fly with swords.

“Why is there trouble continuously? Is it an accident or a scheme?” Gu Ning felt irritated. She had never encountered so much trouble within such a short time.

“No idea, we’ll only know after catching the mastermind,” said Leng Shaoting. He was also wondering whether the trouble was related to what had happened recently or if it was just an accident. Anyway, they needed to investigate it.

When they were out of the town in an area without surveillance cameras and other people, they got out of the car and took out their sword. Without delay, they got aboard the sword and flew to the military base.

It was much faster to fly with a sword. Because they could take a direct path, they saved two thirds of the time. Normally, they had to take one and a half hours on the road, but this time Leng Shaoting and Gu Ning arrived after forty minutes.

They spent most of that time in the city center.

Some people saw them as they flew by a village. A kid who was playing outside caught a glance at them. However, because he was too little, nobody took his words seriously and it didn’t cause a sensation.

When they reached the military base, they saw hundreds of people in total chaos. None of them were Xiao Nanchen’s match so a lot of them were already injured.

At the same time, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting clearly sensed a monster. Obviously, the monster was at a high level.

Without delay, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting ran over.

In order to not expose their secret, they went back to the ground when they were close to the gate of the military base.

The soldiers at the gate didn’t stop them, but felt confused about the way they came here. However, when they saw how fast Leng Shaoting and Gu Ning could run, they were amazed.

Seeing Leng Shaoting, everyone was relieved.

They had unconditional trust and admiration for Leng Shaoting. Even though Xiao Nanchen was abnormally strong, they believed that Leng Shaoting could handle it.

As soon as Leng Shaoting came, he directly attacked Xiao Nanchen, but he didn’t beat the monster out of Xiao Nanchen’s body right away. Instead, he led Xiao Nanchen to the woods without anyone around before he did that, because he didn’t want the other people to see.

The monster that hid in Xiao Nanchen’s body panicked when Leng Shaoting came. Before Leng Shaoting even drew it to the woods, it rapidly ran there so Leng Shaoting quickly followed.

Gu Ning understood that Leng Shaoting could deal with it, so she didn’t go there. She stayed to take care of their wounds.

She directly took out a large bottle of power crystals and handed each of them a pill.

They were injured, but luckily not seriously. They should make a full recovery a few days after taking a power crystal.
