Neither of these two individuals was a match for Su Hua Mei.
However, when they attacked Su Hua Mei together, they threw her into a flurry.
Their attacks were peculiar; one moved left, the other inevitably to the right, one upward, the other inevitably downward, one supremely hard, the other inevitably soft.
Yin and yang complemented each other, forming a vast and strange aura between them.
Outsiders couldn't sense it, only becoming aware of it when trapped in conflict, as if mired in quicksand.
This aura not only possessed strong stickiness but also pulled left and right, continuously interfering with the opponent's movements.
For example, when Su Hua Mei swung her silk ribbon to attack the enemy on the right, mid-swing, the ribbon felt as if it were yanked, turning ninety degrees to the left, instantly dispelling the magical power Su Hua Mei had imbued into it.
At this moment, Liu Nan Feng's eyes shifted slightly, the entire world laid bare before him, all sorts of complex information flashing before his eyes.
Through layers of information, his gaze fell upon the combatants.
He saw that in the area of the fierce battle, there was a huge vortex, like an underwater reef, continuously stirring up an undercurrent, and Su Hua Mei was being buffeted by this undercurrent, struggling to escape.
Despite her本来 formidable strength, she could only exert three to four tenths of it.
Countless data streams flickered before his eyes, nodes forming a massive network, their lights flashing, all visible to Liu Nan Feng.
"Hua Mei, shift left, attack the rear," Liu Nan Feng called out.
Su Hua Mei trusted Liu Nan Feng implicitly. Without a second thought, she moved left, her silk ribbon like a spirit snake attacking the rear.
Simultaneously, one of the attackers moved behind her, immediately, as if delivered to her doorstep, colliding with the end of Su Hua Mei's ribbon. A loud "bang" resounded, like striking a cowhide drum, directly sending the person flying, and the immense vortex aura dispersed with it.
Su Hua Mei seized the opportunity, flicking her silk ribbon to attack the other enemy.
The opponent vanished in a wisp of smoke. A section of the silk ribbon flew out, striking a roadside lamppost, piercing it directly. As she retracted it, the lamppost instantly toppled, plunging the surroundings into darkness.
Su Hua Mei lightly tapped the ground and returned to Liu Nan Feng's side, shielding him behind her, the silk ribbon circling her body to prevent sneak attacks.
"Alright, no need for that, they're gone," Liu Nan Feng said.
"Really?"
"Would I lie to you about something like this?" Liu Nan Feng said speechlessly.
When their lives were on the line, she had trusted him without reservation, yet now she was beginning to doubt him.
"How did they leave?" Su Hua Mei retracted her silk ribbon, frowning.
She was very curious; how could they have vanished silently right under her nose? This was highly unusual.
"Shadows, or rather, darkness."
It turned out they had merged themselves into the ubiquitous darkness of the night and escaped, a very rare method of evasion.
However, despite its peculiarity, this method of evasion could not escape Liu Nan Feng's sight.
For example, when Liu Nan Feng activated his analysis state with his eyes, all the information in the world was laid bare before him. It was like when people usually played on computers, seeing only the pre-packaged information of applications, with nothing unusual.
But in Liu Nan Feng's eyes, he saw the underlying code behind these applications, all of them lines of data.
So when they merged into the darkness, and that darkness, the original underlying code, suddenly had something added to it, it was difficult not to attract his attention.
"Who were they? Why did they attack us?" Su Hua Mei asked with some confusion.
"Two farmers," Liu Nan Feng replied.
"Huh? You know who they were?" Su Hua Mei was very surprised to hear this.
Liu Nan Feng nodded. "I saw them this morning."
"This morning, when you took Xiao Li Yu out? They were after Xiao Li Yu, no, they were after you?" Su Hua Mei's reaction was very sharp.
Liu Nan Feng nodded; he thought so too.
"But why? For the Heavenly Palace?"
"I'm not too sure about that, but..." In fact, Liu Nan Feng had some speculations.
These two were precisely the middle-aged man and woman they had encountered at the entrance after leaving Peach Blossom Garden this morning.
Although they had concealed their identities, it was of no use to Liu Nan Feng, who could scan the information of the entire world; it didn't matter how many disguises they wore.
And they had clearly been guarding Peach Blossom Garden, obviously wanting to obtain something from it.
The answer thus became obvious, but it was clear they didn't dare to offend Zhu Yin E, otherwise, they would have rushed into the riverbed long ago; why would they guard Peach Blossom Garden for so long?
It seemed as he had guessed, there really was something in Peach Blossom Spring, but what puzzled Liu Nan Feng was that when he opened his analysis eye, he hadn't found anything special.
"Can you find them then?" Su Hua Mei asked again.
Liu Nan Feng thought for a moment and nodded. Besides seeing through their identities, he also knew they were definitely nearby Peach Blossom Garden.
There was another reason: anyone who passed through a place would inevitably leave traces, and these traces were also information. Through this information, Liu Nan Feng could accurately track their whereabouts.
"Let's go." Su Hua Mei opened the car door and got in.
"Huh? Going home?" Liu Nan Feng asked, judging by her tone, she didn't seem to be heading home.
"Revenge is best served without delay, why go home, we're going to find them," Su Hua Mei said angrily.
"Alright."
Since that was the case, Liu Nan Feng didn't refuse and got into the car, driving towards Peach Blossom Garden.
Along the way, he also recounted the encounter from that morning to Su Hua Mei.
Su Hua Mei frowned upon hearing this, then hesitated, "Judging by this, they should be people from the Tide Association."
Liu Nan Feng nodded; this was in line with his own speculation.
After seeing the two of them this morning, Liu Nan Feng had sensed something was amiss.
The reason he felt something was wrong was due to the fleeting look of surprise they had shown when they saw Liu Nan Feng.
If the other party had shown surprise or curiosity, Liu Nan Feng would have understood it better, but surprise, for what reason?
He was a person, not some deformed creature, and Xiao Li Yu was also very cute and lovable, with nothing to make people surprised.
Therefore...
Another point was that although both of them were dressed as farmers, and could even be said to have lived as farmers for a long time, their demeanor betrayed them.
Farmers in their late forties or fifties generally had tired faces and dull eyes, absolutely not the vigorous spirit they possessed.
So Liu Nan Feng modified the information of a few flies to monitor the two of them.
This was also why he was driving slowly that morning, causing Xiao Li Yu to misunderstand that Liu Nan Feng didn't want to treat her to a big meal; in reality, he was waiting for information from a few flies.
But he hadn't expected them to be so quick; they had met in the morning and attacked him in the evening.
This was clearly trying to bully someone weak; how could he tolerate that?
