The energy entities rapidly approached the hotel room, and the air was filled with a murderous atmosphere.

These energy entities were not the cultivation level of Cultivators, and more resembled ancient martial arts cultivation, yet were different. They were more like the dark Demonic Qi he had encountered before, but their cultivation level was far from that mysterious shadow.

"Ye Fan, if you don't hand it over, don't blame me for being ruthless!" Shen Yan took a few steps back, eyeing Ye Fan with a cold glint, filled with threat.

"I'd like to see how ruthless you can be." Ye Fan remained calm and composed.

In an instant, four energy entities appeared around Shen Yan, invisible to the naked eye, and they simultaneously attacked Ye Fan.

Ye Fan hadn't expected their cultivation level to be so good. Before him, they should have been untraceable, but he could only detect them with his Spiritual Sense; all five senses unable to track them.

This might be a cultivation technique similar to Eastern Ninja Technique or Invisibility Technique.

The four energy entities attacked Ye Fan from different directions, while Shen Yan suddenly raised her hand, turning her palm into a blade, striking at Ye Fan with a hand knife.

Although Ye Fan had known Shen Yan for a long time, he was unaware of such skill. He suspected that the person in front of him was not Shen Yan, but their demeanor, appearance, and body shape were all exactly the same. Only the voice seemed slightly hoarse, perhaps from too much shouting while being kidnapped.

"You're not Shen Yan!" Ye Fan said, as a strong wind seemed to assault his sleeves.

Spiritual Energy surged from around his body, attacking the four energy entities.

"Puff!" Ye Fan's first round of attack directly hit one person, sending them flying five or six meters away, crashing into the wall and landing weakly, spitting out blood, but their body suddenly vanished as if entering another space, with their life and death unknown.

Although the other three energy entities were repelled, they were not seriously injured and, together with Shen Yan, continued to attack Ye Fan.

At the same time, the door opened and Li Zhaojun, Min Shang, Qing Xu, and Lan Jing also arrived.

"Prepare to die!" Shen Yan saw that the enemies surrounded them and intended to fight Ye Fan to the death. Ye Fan could have easily killed Shen Yan and the four ninjas with her, but he couldn't be sure if it was Shen Yan.

He couldn't bring himself to kill, but he couldn't let Li Zhaojun and others be harmed either, so he directly tossed the black briefcase out the window.

"Huh?" Obviously, Shen Yan and the remaining three ninjas were targeting the briefcase, not Ye Fan. Seeing Ye Fan throw the briefcase out the window, the four of them leaped out and disappeared mid-air.

The briefcase, during its descent, was suddenly "snatched away" by someone. Shen Yan and the remaining three ninjas swiftly vanished beneath the hotel.

Li Zhaojun was about to pursue when Ye Fan gestured, saying, "Let them go, the briefcase is fake anyway."

The four energy entities gradually drifted away, while Ye Fan continued to sense the situation in the room because he knew there was still a ninja left behind due to injuries.

Eventually, he discovered that the ninja was already dead. Judging by the physique, it was likely a female ninja. This female ninja, as soft as boneless, after being killed by Ye Fan's blow, somehow used the last of her strength to flush herself into the toilet, sliding down the pipes into the sewer system where no one could track her.

...

...

Returning to the adjacent room, Ye Fan's face was terrifyingly gloomy. It had been so hard to rescue Shen Yan, only to find he had rescued hatred.

Was the pop diva Shen Yan actually an enemy spy from Japan?

Ye Fan could hardly believe it because he felt Shen Yan was very kind, and they helped each other. Despite not developing into love, at least Ye Fan wouldn't believe his good friend was a spy for a rival country.

Ye Fan thought there was only one explanation; this Shen Yan was impersonated by someone.

But Shen Yan's demeanor and appearance were exactly the same as the Shen Yan he knew before. No one could impersonate her so accurately. Another explanation was that Shen Yan was controlled by someone using a peculiar method.

But if her mind was controlled, how could an ordinary woman learn such unique techniques as Ninjutsu?

"Ye Fan, since you doubt, why don't you follow and find out?" Li Zhaojun asked, seeing Ye Fan in a bad mood.

Ye Fan slightly shook his head and said, "I'm afraid that after verifying it, it would make me even more disappointed."

Ye Fan suspected that Shen Yan had been deceiving him from the beginning, but he didn't want to confirm it because it would mean that he had been used from the start. There was no reason for Shen Yan to approach him, but actually, their first meeting was also a "coincidence." If Shen Yan was indeed a spy from Japan, was it because he was the Black Dragon of the Dragon Group that she had deliberately approached him?

Just at this moment, Ye Fan's phone suddenly rang. It was Tantai Wanrong who was calling.

"...Xiaofan, I'm fine, I've already come out... just finished a meeting today, it's a confidential meeting, I can't tell you the content... You've returned to Hua Hai City, take care of yourself and don't let Yaoyao have any accidents, I'll be back tomorrow..."

"Aunt Rong, are you participating in a secret national plan?" Ye Fan suddenly asked.

Tantai Wanrong's voice was somewhat unnatural as she said, "Xiaofan, don't overthink, and don't speak recklessly, even though it's a private call..."

"But your phone is also wiretapped by higher-ups, right? Rest assured, I'm disrupting the communication with a special method while talking to you. As long as no one is beside you, no one will know our conversation." Ye Fan said.

"Xiaofan, some things are hard to explain to you. In short, like you, we're all for the good of the country. That's it, I'll hang up now."

Tantai Wanrong, directly pointed out by Ye Fan about her activities, found it difficult to face Ye Fan, and quickly hung up. Initially, she had many heartfelt words to share with Ye Fan.

Li Zhaojun asked, "What plan did Big Sister participate in?"

"Zhao Jun, it's not that I want to hide from you. Some things are very complicated. I guessed it after seeing that list, Aunt Rong is on it, along with some government officials. I suspect that there are secret bases within China preparing for this plan. That's why foreign forces want to investigate this matter and are assassinating those involved in the plan, fearing the disruption of this operation," said Ye Fan.

As he spoke, a powerful Spiritual Energy entity suddenly approached.

This time Ye Fan could accurately determine it was Wu Ding returning.

Wu Ding had been out for a day, tracking Elder Wu and Li Bei. Ye Fan wasn't sure if she knew, and since Wu Ding returned on her sword in broad daylight, it was because the weather suddenly turned gloomy. With Wu Ding's high cultivation, she could hide most of her aura while sword-flying, making it undetectable.

"Junior Brother, some things I couldn't explain in time, but come with me once. Senior Brother Qing Wu... may have been attacked, and now the demonic nature within him is erupting. We must take him back to the Pan Gu Hidden Realm, so the sect members can retrieve him; otherwise, the Earth might not exist!" Wu Ding said.
