"Kunlun? Du Fei, how did you offend people from this organization?"
Fang Chao, sitting opposite Du Fei, looked shocked.
After the man in the black mask committed suicide, Du Fei felt the situation was serious, so he immediately called Fang Chao.
Du Fei had only briefly told Fang Chao on the phone that he had been attacked and the captured person had committed suicide by taking poison.
Fang Chao said he understood and less than half an hour later, Fang Chao arrived with a few subordinates.
After instructing his subordinates to take away the man in the black mask, Fang Chao and Du Fei got into the business car by the roadside.
"It's a long story, before..."
The reason Du Fei called Fang Chao was that among all the people he knew, Fang Chao was likely the most helpful. As the heir of a martial arts family, he surely had many connections that Du Fei didn't know about.
Just like just now, upon hearing that someone Du Fei had captured had committed suicide by taking poison, Fang Chao was not shocked at all and simply asked Du Fei to wait for him there.
Although Du Fei didn't know where Fang Chao had taken the man in the black mask with his subordinates, he was certain that Fang Chao would handle it cleanly.
Therefore, Du Fei held nothing back from Fang Chao.
He explained how Gong Chengbin was assassinated, how he killed the assassin, and then the appearance of the man in the black mask.
When Du Fei mentioned that the person was from Kunlun, Fang Chao didn't seem surprised at all, immediately making Du Fei think that Fang Chao must know about this organization.
"What's wrong? Is this organization very powerful? I heard that the leader of Kunlun called himself something like the Heavenly Emperor."
Du Fei then revealed all the information he had managed to extract.
Fang Chao nodded solemnly, "Yes, I know about the organization Kunlun. Their leader calls himself the Lord of Kunlun, the Heavenly Emperor. It is said that he is a martial artist of very high cultivation, who has gathered assassins from all over the country. As long as you have the money, there is no one they dare not kill. I once heard that people from Kunlun even assassinated a province's richest man, causing a great stir!"
"Also, his subordinates are divided into four ranks: Heaven, Earth, Black, and Yellow, according to their strength. These are all eccentric and cruel murderers, each with blood on their hands."
"Just like now, you foiled their assassination plan, which is why Kunlun sent people to kill you. Although this attempt failed, they will definitely not give up."
After speaking, Fang Chao, a member of a martial arts family, also showed a somewhat grave expression.
This showed how terrifying the organization Kunlun was.
Du Fei never expected that he had inadvertently provoked such a terrifying assassin organization. This was something he had never imagined.
However, even if he could go back in time, Du Fei would still make the same choice. He couldn't stand by and watch Gong Chengbin die before his eyes.
"A bunch of people who only dare to live in the dark. I'm not afraid of them. Let them come if they have the guts."
When Du Fei thought of the assassins from Kunlun, each with blood on their hands, his kind heart could not be at peace.
"That may be so, but as the saying goes, a direct spear is easy to dodge, but a hidden arrow is hard to guard against. It's impossible to guard against these Kunlun fellows. You'll have to be careful from now on."
Fang Chao patted Du Fei.
As a friend, he wanted to help Du Fei, but regarding the mysterious assassin organization Kunlun, Fang Chao, even as someone from a martial arts family, could do nothing.
Du Fei nodded.
What Fang Chao said made a lot of sense. These people from Kunlun were operating in the shadows, and no matter how careful he was, there would be times when he slipped up.
Besides, these were all desperate killers. It was hard to guarantee they wouldn't target people close to him someday.
The only way forward was to become stronger himself to protect those around him. Du Fei thought this was the best solution.
"By the way, Fang Chao, I need your help with something."
Du Fei turned to look at Fang Chao.
Fang Chao: "Just say it. If I can help, I will do so without hesitation."
Du Fei mentioned the names of several precious medicinal herbs and asked Fang Chao to keep an eye out for them.
"Okay, I'll try my best to find them for you. I'll notify you as soon as there's any news."
Fang Chao agreed.
Fang Chao had also asked Wang Qiyang to help him look for these medicinal herbs before, but due to their extreme rarity, there had been no news yet.
Once he obtained these medicinal herbs, Du Fei would be able to refine two types of pills to enhance his cultivation, which would surely make his cultivation much more effective.
After asking Fang Chao a few more things about Kunlun, Du Fei offered to drive Fang Chao back.
Fang Chao said it was unnecessary and made a phone call.
Soon, a luxury car appeared next to Du Fei's business car. Fang Chao waved goodbye to Du Fei and got into the car to leave.
...
"Brother! Why are you back so late? You said you were going to buy me food, where is it?"
As soon as Du Fei returned home, he was intercepted at the door by Du Yunyun.
Seeing Du Fei's empty hands, Du Yunyun put on a stern face, looking very unhappy.
"Oh, I'm sorry, little sister. I forgot about buying things."
Du Yunyun's words reminded Du Fei. When he had gone to treat the elderly man's illness earlier, he had promised Du Yunyun that he would bring her something back.
But then he encountered the Kunlun assassins and chatted with Fang Chao for a long time, completely forgetting about buying things.
If Du Yunyun hadn't mentioned it just now, he wouldn't have remembered it at all.
"Alright, your brother has worked hard all day too. Let him rest well. You girl, you have food at home but you insist on eating spicy hot pot. I think your brother spoils you too much and has made you too willful!"
Wu Chunmei, who was tidying things up nearby, walked over.
"Mom, I promised my sister I would buy it. A person must keep their word. It's my fault for this."
Du Fei stated that it wasn't Du Yunyun's fault.
Wu Chunmei glanced at Du Fei, "Alright, I know you love your sister, but you can't spoil her too much. In the future, when you're out, others won't indulge her. Go wash up and go to bed."
Du Yunyun wanted to say something more, but with a glare from her mother, she could only pout and return to her room with a wronged look.
If Du Yunyun knew what Du Fei had gone through tonight, she probably wouldn't have blamed him for breaking his promise.
But Du Fei had no intention of letting his mother and sister know about such things.
Wu Chunmei asked Du Fei if he had eaten and if he wanted her to make him something. Du Fei said it wasn't necessary, he had already eaten.
Hearing Du Fei say he had eaten, Wu Chunmei told Du Fei to take a shower and then go to his room to rest.
After all, he had worked hard all day and must be tired, so he should rest early.
Du Fei nodded and told Wu Chunmei not to work too hard either, then walked back to his room.
