This ending seems to have been predetermined long ago; the Willow Eyebrow Saber is inherently unsuitable for intense combat, which is also the main reason it later withdrew from the stage of war.

Moreover, facing six enemies single-handedly while annihilating them and maintaining one's survival is, in itself, extremely difficult.

Su Yuzhuo slowly closed her eyes, quietly awaiting the arrival of death. In her mind, a handsome face gradually emerged, becoming clearer and finally settling into the image of Xiao Feng.

Bits and pieces of the past began to appear, as if Su Yuzhuo were watching a movie, entirely viewing the grand drama starring herself from an outsider's perspective.

Although it seemed that their interactions were mostly unpleasant, Su Yuzhuo still watched earnestly.

She exerted all her strength, enduring piercing pain, wanting to reach out and touch that face so close before her, yet in the end, she only managed to move her fingers a bit, unable to lift her arm.

"Is it over?" Su Yuzhuo felt her brain growing heavier, her thoughts gradually becoming chaotic, and even the face before her began to blur.

A tear trickled down from the corner of her eye, and she suddenly appreciated this rain. Amidst the torrential downpour, it was impossible to distinguish between tears and rainwater.

In fact, Su Yuzhuo had long anticipated this moment; it was like a cycle from when she assumed the identity of "Big Sister"—she was destined to escape fate.

She had fantasized about whether Xiao Feng would feel sad once he knew she was no longer alive.

But after thinking about it over and over, she felt that, given Xiao Feng's personality, he would probably smile very happily.

No one dared to believe that Su Yuzhuo repeatedly targeted Xiao Feng, merely to make him remember her.

Yet as her life was about to end, Su Yuzhuo suddenly realized that her obsession was indeed somewhat silly.

Love or hate, none of it mattered to her anymore, right…

Putting those aside, Su Yuzhuo really couldn't let go; she desperately wanted to see Xiao Feng one last time, even if just a face-to-face encounter!

At this moment, a stabbing pain came from her heart, Su Yuzhuo couldn't distinguish whether it was the other person already making a move or her own illusion, just clearly feeling she was a step closer to death.

Dimly, a piercing light shone on her, and the figure she had been hoping for finally appeared, running toward her frantically.

Su Yuzhuo smiled, unable to care if it was an illusion; she only knew she was truly happy at this moment.

"Don't move!" Seeing Su Yuzhuo gravely injured yet smiling foolishly, Xiao Feng took a deep breath and said, "I'll take you to the hospital!"

"Hos...pital?!" Su Yuzhuo frowned tightly. "Am I dead now?"

Xiao Feng took off his coat, covered Su Yuzhuo, and then carefully picked her up, scolding, "You're not dead. If you don't want to die, don't speak!"

Su Yuzhuo suddenly shivered; if this were a dream or illusion, it would be way too realistic, especially as the intense pain remained clear.

Could it be… not a dream?!

As her thoughts reached this point, she finally couldn't hold on and fainted.

Just as Xiao Feng was about to put Su Yuzhuo in the car, he saw the driver had already turned around and left, which made him curse spontaneously.

Thinking carefully, the driver's behavior was understandable; after all, in torrential rain, there were seven or eight people lying on the bridge, covered in scars. Who would dare to stay around?

But understanding was one thing; Xiao Feng was indeed feeling very uncomfortable.

There was no other choice; with a dying horse treated as a living one, Xiao Feng could only hold Su Yuzhuo and rush to the nearest hospital, leaving fate to decide if she could survive.

However, after just a few steps, Xiao Feng suddenly looked at the Brow Knife not far away and then at the scabbard on Su Yuzhuo's back, instantly coming up with a bold idea...

Of course, any further questions now would need Su Yuzhuo to awaken for answers. Xiao Feng picked up the knife and headed toward Jiangcheng.

Fortunately, the rain gradually lessened, and Xiao Feng continued marching in the middle of the road.

Shortly, a car coming from the opposite direction was forced to a stop, and the driver, courageously lowering the window, cursed, "Damn! Are you suicidal? Don't drag me into it!"

Ignoring everything else, Xiao Feng placed Su Yuzhuo on the hood and headed for the left driver's door.

The driver panicked right away; there's no way a hit-and-run could be this blatant, and through the windshield, he could clearly see the woman's face was pale, and she was wounded—probably already dead.

"I-I-I have a dashcam," the driver said, with a sob: "Don't do anything foolish."

Evidently, he took Xiao Feng for a rain-night serial killer, committing murder and attempting to blame him.

"Get out if you don't want to die!" Xiao Feng pressed the long knife against the driver's neck, threatening harshly.

In extraordinary times, one must resort to extraordinary measures.

Ultimately, Xiao Feng couldn't just stand by and watch Su Yuzhuo die before him; it wasn't sympathy, but knowing a living Su Yuzhuo had value.

The driver swallowed unnaturally and, trembling, raised his hands, slowly opening the door: "Okay, don't be impulsive; I'll agree to any condition."

No car is more important than life, especially when there's insurance for car theft and it can be reported, but if your life is gone, then everything is lost.

Faced with this issue, only the sane can weigh it against reality.

Not bothering to explain too much, Xiao Feng placed Su Yuzhuo in the back seat and sped away; apology and compensation would be dealt with later.

Fifteen minutes later, Su Yuzhuo was rushed to the emergency room, while Xiao Feng made a call to Miao Yueqian, briefly explaining the situation and requesting help tracking the previous business vehicle.

However, just as he was about to hang up, he heard Miao Yueqian say, "I have something to apologize for; don't get agitated."

Xiao Feng's heart skipped a beat: "What's happening?"

"Mu Shihan is missing," Miao Yueqian said through gritted teeth.

"What did you say?!" Xiao Feng suddenly stood up from his seat, his eyes burning with anger.

Miao Yueqian quickly said, "Don't worry; we only found out two minutes ago. We've already dispatched all available personnel to search thoroughly, and I assure you with my life, we'll find her, even if we have to dig three feet into the ground!"

"And if what we find is her corpse?" Xiao Feng said solemnly.

Currently, Su Yuzhuo was critically injured, and whether she could be saved was unknown. Now the little girl was missing, making it hard for Xiao Feng not to connect these two incidents.

The person who harmed Su Yuzhuo was clearly from the Devil's Concentration Camp; could those responsible for the girl's disappearance be from the same camp?

This is truly a terrifying thought when carefully considered.

Before Miao Yueqian could respond, Xiao Feng hung up and called Du Qingyue.

With the little girl missing, if anything happened to Du Qingyue, Xiao Feng couldn't imagine what he'd do.

The call quickly connected, and Du Qingyue's voice came through: "Hello."

"Is everything okay on your end?" Xiao Feng asked, somewhat nervously.

Du Qingyue, a bit puzzled, glanced at the still-falling rain outside, replying, "All good here, come back after the rain stops?"

Xiao Feng sighed in relief: "I'll come back, but it might be later."

Sitting on the corridor bench, for the first time, Xiao Feng had such a strong urge to elevate everyone's abilities around him; this worry was truly agonizing and uncomfortable.

After paying the medical bills and leaving contact information, Xiao Feng headed straight for the criminal investigation team; with the little girl missing, he couldn't just remain indifferent.

Yet arriving urgently at the team, he found a large group of people gathered, chatting and laughing, showing no sign of urgency.

Xiao Feng was instantly enraged; Miao Yueqian had told him all idle personnel were dispatched, but now the scene contradicted her words completely.

"You're back?"

Lin Zhiyan was the first to notice Xiao Feng's dark expression and welcomed him, saying: "Shihan has been found; she didn't get lost. She had gone shopping with Lu Yao, then went to the toilet, but because of sudden heavy rain, her phone ran out of power, and she lost contact with Lu Yao. Worried about any accident, Lu Yao asked us for help locating her."

At this moment, the crowd parted, revealing the little girl and Lu Yao, both drenched like wet chickens, wrapped in towels, towel-drying their hair.
