Although he and his sister have never been very close since childhood, his sister is still one of his closest relatives.

Now someone is targeting his sister, how could he remain indifferent?

Chen Shouyi tried to suppress his anger and calmly think of a countermeasure, then quickly said.

"Your appearance has been exposed and you are the only eyewitness. Some members of the cult may hold high positions in Dongning City and they will definitely search for you. It's best not to go out these days!"

At this moment, Chen Shouyi thought of something, his expression changed slightly, and he hurriedly asked:

"By the way, when you reported to the police, did you expose any personal information?"

"I... I registered!" Chen Xingyue also realized the key point and suddenly became somewhat lost and panicked.

Although she is smart and clever from a young age, she is after all only a fifteen-year-old girl who hasn't experienced the world, and given her panic and fear at the time, it's inevitable her considerations weren't very thorough.

"Brother... What should we do, shall we call mom and dad and flee? Let's leave Dongning City immediately."

Chen Xingyue didn't even notice that the brother whom she used to look down upon had now, in the face of life and death matters, become her reliance with his calm and steady demeanor.

"Calm down, don't panic. The more you panic, the more chaotic it'll be," Chen Shouyi said in a deep voice.

Then he quickly strode to the balcony and gently opened a slit in the curtain, looking outside carefully for a while.

Before long, he keenly noticed two young men with sinister expressions squatting by the street curb opposite, smoking and chatting intermittently, their eyes occasionally glancing at the restaurant across the street.

"They came so quickly; obviously, this cult is deeply infiltrated," he muttered to himself.

Chen Shouyi hadn't learned any counter-surveillance skills, but the other party's brazen behavior was still easily noticeable to him.

Perhaps they thought this family was powerless to resist and could only be at their mercy!

He gently lowered the curtain, his face gloomy, a murderous intent rising in his heart.

When he turned around, his face had already resumed to calm:

"There are too many eyes during the day; let's leave at night. Also, don't mention this to mom and dad for now to avoid alarming them and alerting the enemy. Now, go to your room and remember not to open the curtains."

Chen Shouyi couldn't be sure whether they would use a sniper rifle or not; some people, to avoid possible exposure, might do anything.

Chen Xingyue didn't say anything, wiped her tears, and nodded vigorously; she was already lost in face of such a situation.

He watched as Chen Xingyue walked into the room heavily.

Chen Shouyi also entered his bedroom.

After putting away his briefcase, he sat down in the chair and closed his eyes, a little distracted.

Suddenly, he opened his eyes, grabbed a porcelain pen holder on the desk, and crushed it along with the pens.

"Damn, it's really fucking arrogant."

The intense irritation and murderous intent in his heart were like a blazing fire burning fiercely in his chest; he wished he could rush out and crush the heads of those two watching youths.

But he knew it was not yet time!

If they continued to pretend as if nothing happened, these people, to minimize social impact and avoid exposure, might wait until late at night to take action. Killing those two now would be like alerting the enemy prematurely.

Moreover, handling corpses in broad daylight isn't easy either.

As for reporting to the police, he had thought about it.

But he quickly dismissed the idea. Even putting aside whether the police would believe him, even if they deployed officers to protect the reporter 24/7, how many risks would that entail?

Furthermore, to cooperate with any potential sting operation by the police, his family wouldn't be able to leave in the short term, always remaining in danger.

Not to mention, how his family's information was leaked was terrifyingly suspicious to think about!

He could disregard his own safety, but he could not ignore the safety of his parents and sister. The best approach was to leave Dongning City at night; even if he were wanted for murder, given the current situation of power and internet outages, once they left Dongning City, it might just end inconclusively.

As for that spatial passage, in such a situation, he could only give it up.

Chen Shouyi planned to find a way to report it once they left Dongning City and were settled down.

Those barbarians were already terrified by him, and short-term, there shouldn't be any issues.

Chen Shouyi took a deep breath, threw the porcelain dust and broken pens into the trash can.

The most important thing now is to get his weapons; even if it exposes him in front of his parents and sister, he couldn't care less.

He opened the window, looked around the alley below, and while no one was watching, he leaped down.

Walking on the street, he glanced at those two men watching out of the corner of his eyes, his fist clenched slightly before he quickly relaxed and briskly left the area.

Those two surveilling youths probably couldn't imagine that, just now, their lives had walked through the gates of hell.

...

In the otherworldly island, night had already fallen, and the sky was dark.

An ominous atmosphere lingered.

The thin mist on the ground moved gently and eerily as if alive.

After experiencing so much, Chen Shouyi no longer felt the initial fear towards these weak natural spirits.

He unconcernedly came to the cave, took out his backpack, and poured out the food and camouflage uniform, scattering them all over the ground.

Then he stuffed in the components of the War Bow and the arrows.

The backpack was a mountaineering bag, approximately 80cm in height, barely fitting the two long bow limbs.

But the sword case was a bit too long, so Chen Shouyi had to carry it in his hand.

Afterward, he picked up all the gold and strode away from the passage.

On the street, he hesitated for a moment, then suddenly changed direction.

Ten minutes later, he arrived at the residential area where Zhang Xiaoyue lived.

...

Chen Shouyi saw an elderly man sitting idly in the pavilion of the community and immediately walked up to him.

"Hello, do you know Zhang Xiaoyue, a girl about my age?"

"Zhang who?"

"Zhang Xiaoyue, do you know her?"

"Zhang Xia what?"

"Never mind, I won't bother you. I'll ask someone else," Chen Shouyi replied helplessly.

He asked everyone he met on the road in the community, but all said they didn't know, so Chen Shouyi soon gave up this futile inquiry.

In the city where neighborly relations are indifferent, many people have lived here for over ten years and probably don't even know how many people live across from them.

But there was one thing that comforted Chen Shouyi.

No incidents had occurred here yet, and no one had died, nor had any bodies been unidentified. Otherwise, if such a major event occurred, the community would likely be in an uproar.

He didn't stay long and hurried home.

Seeing Mrs. Chen at the restaurant's cash register head down calculating, Chen Shouyi breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he quickly walked past the restaurant door, went around to the alley, and reached under his bedroom window.

After waiting for a few pedestrians to pass, Chen Shouyi retreated a few steps.

With a few running strides, he suddenly leaped, his body soared three to four meters high, then grabbed the window ledge, flipped over, and was already inside the bedroom.

He sat at the desk, took the Long Sword from the sword case, picked up a piece of silk, and carefully wiped the blade until it gleamed before reinserting it into the sword scabbard.

Then, he took out the components of the bow from the backpack, assembling and adjusting them one by one.

Looking at these two weapons, which were long stained with blood, Chen Shouyi gradually calmed down.

He had never killed a person before, and never thought there would be a day he would kill.

But adding up the barbarians he had killed, it amounted to over twenty.
