    Thump, thump.


    “Young Master, it’s noon…aren’t you going to school?” Lost in boundless darkness.


    Liu Dehui suddenly hears a voice from the outside world.


    “Ugh…”


    His head throbbing as if it was about to split open.


    He groaned.


    The next second.


    Whoosh!


    Liu Dehui’s eyes flung open, and he bolted up from bed.


    Too forceful.


    A loud ‘bang’ echoed in the room.


    His head mmed hard into the ceiling, creating a hole.


    Bits of rubble mixed with a small amount of white dust sputtered down, covering Liu Dehui.


    But he was too preupied to care.


    Instead, he vignt, gazed around the room.


    Thest thing Liu Dehui remembered was being at the Holy Sect’s base.


    He only remembered a man in a pure ck mask and ck robe gripping him.


    The ck ring on his finger morphed into a twisting snake and slithered towards his eyes.


    And then, nothing.


    Liu Dehui had no recollection of what happened next.


    “Did… Did I not die?”


    The pain in his brain gradually subsided.


    With the subsiding tension, his mind slowly cleared, no longer cloudy like when he had just woken up.


    He looked at his body.


    There were no injuries and he was still in his school uniform.


    After checking himself over.


    He found no injuries or missing limbs.


    “Was it… a dream?” Liu Dehui pondered aloud.


    NO!


    Almost immediately, he rejected the thought.


    The terror he felt in the presence of the man in the ck robe was too real and vivid.


    Nothing one would feel in a dream.


    Liu Dehui sniffed at himself and involuntarily wrinkled his nose.


    The stench of vomit still lingered on him.


    Clearly, it was generous of Mr. Chou to even bring him home.


    There was no way he would have cleaned him up as well.


    However, the traces left on his body confirmed Liu Dehui’s fear.


    His ordealst night was no dream.


    He had indeed been captured by a group of people dressed in ck and taken to an underground cave, seemingly for experimentation.


    Could it be that they had imnted some sort of device inside him to control or alter his body?


    Was the reason he was returned to test his response?


    For a moment, countless scenarios from foreign films raced through his mind.


    His eyes scanning his surroundings, Liu Dehui became alert.


    He wished it weren’t the case.


    Once he started thinking about it, he couldn’t shake the feeling that they were lurking nearby, watching his every move. Unfortunately,


    After a long search, Liu Dehui found nothing.


    Instead, the maid’s reminders to get up became more frequent.


    With no other option,


    Liu Dehui changed and washed up before heading downstairs for breakfast.


    Since he got up toote,


    His father was not at home.


    His mother, perched on the sofa, red at him.


    Making Liu Dehui feel extremely ufortable.


    He was forced to approach his mother and concocted a series of excuses, promising to get up on time in the future.


    Only then did his mother let him off the hook.


    “So, Mom… I’ll go to school after breakfast, alright?”


    “Well, remember to apologize to your teacher and exin why you’rete.”


    “I know.”


    As he looked at his mother, Liu Dehui wanted to say something but then stopped.


    Eventually,


    He didn’t tell his mother what had happened to him.


    The people dressed in ck clothing were clearly no ordinary people.


    Especially the leader, who brought an overwhelming fear.


    Unless absolutely necessary,


    After finishing his breakfast quietly, Liu Dehui bid goodbye to his mother and left the house.


    He didn’t go to school.


    As he was walking,


    Liu Dehui’s figure shed, and he disappeared into an alleyway.


    He stood still.


    The young man looked grave.


    “Come out!”


    “You think I can’t see you?”


    “You captured me, released me… what are you trying to do?”


    “I can tell you clearly, I will not do as you wish!”


    Liu Dehui protested confidently. While speaking,


    His gaze constantly roved the perimeter.


    Smirk. Suddenly,


    He smirked.


    A cold smile emerged on his face.


    “If you don’te out, don’t me me for not showing any mercy.” “I was only taken by you because you caught me off guard.”


    Hmm?


    After his bravado,


    Liu Dehui saw no one appear and began to feel doubtful.


    What’s going on?


    Could it be… they didn’t send anyone to follow him?


    They merely yed a game with him?


    Liu Dehui’s intuition told him this was impossible.


    But now, if they didn’te out, there was nothing he could do. He would have to take things as they came.


    With that in mind,


    Liu Dehui decided to find a ce that was neither too secluded nor too crowded to thoroughly check himself and see what those people did to himst night.


    Meanwhile,


    In Bianchuan City, inside a certain high-rise building.


    A middle-aged man dressed in a suit was in his office, looking at his phone.


    The phone screen disyed a map, much like a navigation system.


    In the center of the screen, a red dot constantly shed.


    The disyed location was exactly where Liu Dehui was.


    Hearing Liu Dehui’s muttering through a Bluetooth headset, The middle-aged man raised an eyebrow, looking speechless.


    “This kid… is he an idiot?”


    He was the Holy Sect personnel responsible for monitoring Liu Dehui.


    After sending Liu Dehui home the previous night, this man nted a positioning device and an audio receiver on Liu Dehui to observe his actions at


    any time..
