"It's only eight o'clock, why is the street so empty?"

Walking on the desolate streets, Nan Gong Rou frowned slightly. Dragon Tooth Town was the most famous tourist area in the area, the night market was extremely prosperous, under normal circumstances, the night market would last until 10 PM or even 11 PM.

The weather was especially clear today. The sky was full of stars, and there was no rain. Shops on the streets were closing, while people were closing. This didn't make sense at all.

"Maybe there's something wrong with the security?"

Chen Hu guessed, thinking back to when they were eating, with a table beside them talking about how they lost children consecutively, probably because of this reason, all the shops had closed early.

"Is there a problem with the law?"

Nan Gong Rou asked Chen Hu as she did not know what was going on. She did not have Chen Hu's hearing and did not know that a grave case had occurred in Dragon Tooth Town where the child was lost.

Thus, Chen Hu told the news that he had accidentally heard to Nan Gong Rou. He had really heard it accidentally, he did not deliberately eavesdrop on other people's conversations.

After breaking through the [Innate] realm, Chen Hu's hearing had increased by a lot. If he was serious, he could hear the flapping wings of mosquitoes a hundred metres away. It was difficult for him to overhear the conversations that were taking place a few metres away.

"How could this happen?"

If it were only one or two cases, then it would be alright. However, judging from the other party's words, there were definitely more than one cases like this, otherwise, it would not have caused the Dragon Tooth Town's night market to close.

"It's alright, this matter has obviously gotten out of hand. I believe that it won't be long before the police solve this case and find the lost child safely."

Chen Hu said softly.

"Yes."

Nangong Rou nodded her head heavily. She also had a lot of trust in the people's police.

"I wonder if the Hot Springs Resort is closed?"

Nangong Rou was worried about this problem.

"Let's go take a look first. If not, then forget it."

Chen Hu said indifferently.

Their luck seemed to be quite good. The hot spring resort was not closed, but the opening hours were shortened. It was operated 24 hours a day and was only open at 2pm. Furthermore, it was only open at 10pm.

Chen Hu and Nangong Rou only had an hour and a half to enjoy the hot spring. Since they had already come, it was naturally impossible for them to return home.

The hot spring was an excellent way to recuperate. The hot spring water contained geothermal energy, which could help people relax their meridians and relieve fatigue. Nowadays, many people liked to find a place with hot spring during holidays to soak and enjoy a healthy life.

Half an hour later, Chen Hu and Nan Gong Rou who had changed into their swimsuits entered the hot spring. The temperature of the hot spring was not high, just thirty-six degrees.

Although the hot spring was enclosed in a room and no one would enter without their permission, Chen Hu and Nan Gong Rou did not act recklessly. They only snuggled together, quietly enjoying the water like a pair of newlyweds.

"Chen Hu, I have a question to ask you."

Nan Gong Rou said to Chen Hu.

"What problem?"

Chen Hu asked.

"Do martial artists often fight and kill each other?"

She had wanted to ask Chen Hu this question a long time ago. Although Nan Gong Rou was confident in Chen Hu's abilities, she still felt uneasy in her heart, if you kill me today, I will kill you tomorrow. As the saying goes, if you mess around, you will have to return it sooner or later.

"Of course not."

Chen Hu rolled his eyes and said: "You have read too many novels about the martial arts. Although there are occasional conflicts during training, there are very few of them.

In the chaotic times of the former Republic, everyone had very few restrictions on their way of doing things, so they did not have to worry about anything. However, in the current country, security was stable, and anyone who dared to act recklessly would have to bear the brunt of the government's power.

Many people felt that the official power were just the police and the army, but that was not the case. According to Chen Hu's understanding, there were some special departments in the country that dealt with special matters. Among them was a section composed of warriors who dealt with the Ancient Warriors who dared to mess around in the secular world.

This was also why the Heavenly Emperor Group were so powerful and did not dare to act rashly. Even if they had done something that they should not have, they would have still done so carefully, and it was all thanks to them that Chen Hu was able to remain safe and sound after doing so. Otherwise, he would have already become a criminal wanted by the police.

Killing to pay with one's life, this was the simplest logic that everyone understood since ancient times.

For example, the Heavenly Dragon Sect was like this. If Luo Li wanted to deal with Chen Hu, he would have to lure Chen Hu to a remote place and make his move, not daring to make a move in broad daylight.

Therefore, the current Paleo-Martial World was actually very stable. The ancient warriors who walked the mortal world were all very obedient, and wouldn't act rashly under normal circumstances.

The last time Chen Hu came out from the Peach Blossom Village, he had climbed up and fought in the city for several years, and during that time, he did not make a move once. It was not that he did not want to make a move, it was just that he could not find an opportunity to do so.

Why did he come out and meet so many things this time, offending so many people. But no matter what, he had a clear conscience, he did not use his cultivation to bully the good and evil, and never took the initiative to cause trouble, it was all because of the other party.

"Fine."

Nangong Rou nodded and did not mention anything else.

Nan Gong Rou did not bring up the topic, but Chen Hu could not let the topic stop. He knew what Nan Gong Rou was thinking, and Nan Gong Rou's worry was also his worry, "A lot of things have happened recently, but it was all unexpected, so you do not have to worry, everything is already over. I have resolved the grudge between me and the Sky Dragon School, and the grudge between the Heaven Emperor Group and the Sky Emperor Group, so I will accompany you to study in Linghai University."

"Yes, yes."

Nangong Rou nodded her head heavily. Nothing else was important, she only hoped for Chen Hu's safety.

"Don't worry, we will be fine."

Chen Hu reached out and caressed Nangong Rou's soft and smooth long hair. Having a wife like this, what else could he ask for, in the future, he would be more careful when doing things, so as to avoid offending people, so as to prevent Nangong Rou from worrying.

The strong should make the people beside them feel safe, and not make them feel fear.

Time slowly passed, perhaps because she was lying beside Chen Hu, making Nangong Rou feel very comfortable, but unknowingly, she actually fell asleep, and only woke up when the people of the spa knocked on the door, reminding her that the spa was about to close.

After finishing bathing in the hot spring, Chen Hu carried the yawning Nan Gong Rou and returned to the hotel.

After driving for an entire day, Nangong Rou was very tired. After soaking in the hot spring, she became even lazier. After returning to the hotel, she took a quick shower before going to bed.

Seeing that Nan Gong Rou was so tired, Chen Hu suppressed the thoughts in his heart that were not suitable for children, and laid down next to Nan Gong Rou.

After a while, two soft sounds of breathing could be heard in the hotel, and both of them fell asleep.

However, this tranquility only lasted for two hours. Chen Hu, who was still fast asleep, suddenly opened his eyes, and his pupils contracted slightly as they narrowed into a line.

"What a powerful Qing Gong."

Just a moment ago, someone had walked past the roof tiles of the inn. His speed was not very fast, but his footsteps were light, if not for the fact that Chen Hu was an Innate Ranker, he would not even have noticed him.

Chen Hu could immediately tell that the other party was an expert who excelled in Qing Gong. If it was him, he would not even have the ability to do so.

However, what was fortunate was that the other party was clearly not here for him and Nangong Rou. He was most likely just passing by.

However, in the middle of the night, an ancient martial arts expert flew across the rooftop. No matter how one looked at it, something didn't seem right.

Chen Hu hesitated for a while, but still got up from the bed. Although it had nothing to do with Nan Gong Rou, he was careful.

As there had been several cases of children being lost in the Dragon Tooth Town recently, causing everyone to feel threatened, especially the families who had children, they had all closed their doors. As a result, not long after midnight, the entire town became so quiet that even a pin drop could be heard, and not a single person could be seen on the streets.

If this was in the past, it would be unimaginable. One must know that the Dragon Tooth Town was a famous scenic area with a radius of a few hundred miles, with an endless flow of tourists and the town's night bustling with noise and excitement. It usually lasted until three in the morning before the liveliness ended.

However, at this moment, a figure appeared at the corner of the street. The figure disappeared into the darkness, and even if one looked carefully, they might not be able to see it.

He was Chen Hu, and for some unknown reason, perhaps out of curiosity, Chen Hu smelled a light movement expert's scent, and chased him out of the house.

Before leaving, Chen Hu had set up a small trap at the window. If anyone tried to enter the house, he would immediately sense that the Dragon Tooth Town was not big, and with his speed, he should be able to come back and rescue Nangong Rou.

Chen Hu would like to see what kind of thing such a light skill expert like him, who was walking on the roof in the middle of the night, could do.

His intuition told him that the other party must be up to no good. Otherwise, why would they have to walk from the rooftop to the street?

did not have the confidence to catch up with him. Unless he used his strong Innate cultivation, he would definitely be discovered by the opponent, which was why Chen Hu decided to follow him using the scent.

When the Ancient Ranker channeled his Qi, the Qi would escape from his body. This kind of Qi that was emitted by a master could not be felt by an Innate Ranker, but Innate Rankers could track him down, and Chen Hu only needed to smell the scent to be able to find him. Of course, there was a prerequisite, that he could catch up to the Innate Ranker before the Qi disappeared.

After taking in a deep breath, Chen Hu raised his speed, and caught up with the other party's scent. Although the other party was fast, his speed was not slow either.

"Stealing the children! Stealing the children! Someone, come!"

The voice was loud and clear, and it contained anger and hatred within the flustered and flustered emotions.

Following the voice, footsteps could be heard from the streets surrounding Dragon Tooth Town. A group of uniformed police officers quickly surrounded the area where the voice came from.

Every cop was armed and well-equipped.
