Looking at Lin Yunxi's aggrieved expression, Yang Feilong opened his mouth, not knowing how to answer for a moment.
If anyone didn't know, they would think he had abandoned Lin Yunxi.
But in reality, the two were just friends!
He didn't have many friends, and even fewer female friends. He had sensed before in Guying Village that Lin Yunxi's friendship for him was not pure, and today, it felt even more obvious!
"Are you also angry at other girls? What's wrong, are you unwilling to answer my questions now?" Lin Yunxi asked again, her eyes filled with sorrow.
"Cough cough, nothing like that," Yang Feilong chuckled dryly.
"So you're only angry at me? Do I displease you so much?"
"I said nothing like that, it's just that I wasn't thinking of making you angry either!" Yang Feilong spread his hands helplessly.
"Are you that impatient?"
Yang Feilong: "..."
This situation was getting weirder and weirder.
"What is our relationship?" Yang Feilong couldn't help but ask. "Aren't we friends? If you don't like me joking, then I won't joke anymore."
Although he knew his words were a bit hurtful, Yang Feilong, whose emotions were in a mess, decided to be more ruthless and decisive in matters of the heart.
Lin Yunxi felt very hurt hearing Yang Feilong's words, but after thinking carefully, Yang Feilong was right. They were just friends, and she wasn't his girlfriend. Her mood became even worse. It turned out her anger was unjustified.
Lin Yunxi sighed softly.
"Let's eat!" Lin Yunxi said.
Yang Feilong originally had a good appetite for the table full of delicacies, but after being dealt with by Lin Yunxi, he had little desire to eat.
If only he had found an excuse not to come earlier.
"I want to ask you for a favor, can you?" Lin Yunxi gathered her emotions and then spoke.
"A favor? What kind of favor?" Yang Feilong also felt that his words earlier were a bit heartless. Seeing Lin Yunxi return to her normal state, his mood improved considerably.
"We can talk about it after we eat!" Lin Yunxi smiled charmingly. She was truly beautiful when she smiled, possessing a heroic and handsome charm.
Combined with a hint of melancholy in her eyes, it made people unable to resist getting closer.
"Let's chat while we eat!" Yang Feilong smiled. "Because you said that, my curiosity is piqued!"
"This... alright! Then let's chat while we eat." Lin Yunxi nodded.
So, as they ate, Lin Yunxi began to tell Yang Feilong.
"There's an ability user who has been harming many young girls recently! We want to catch him, but he has earth-element abilities and can use earth遁术 (earth evasion technique), appearing and disappearing without a trace. We've set traps several times, but he always escaped. We thought he had left Blue Sea City recently, but yesterday, he committed another crime!"
"An earth-element ability user?" Yang Feilong's eyes flickered slightly.
Those with shallow earth-element abilities naturally couldn't use earth evasion, but those with profound cultivation, such as reaching the third-tier ability user level, could.
Of course, the stronger the cultivation, the more potent the earth evasion.
For ancient martial arts practitioners, if their strength wasn't enough to capture an earth-element ability user the moment they used earth evasion, it would be very difficult to catch them.
However, there were perhaps ways for those who cultivated special internal energy.
But those who cultivated special internal energy were rare, and they had to be powerful enough!
Otherwise, it wouldn't be easy to catch an earth-element ability user who could use earth evasion.
"What is this earth-element ability user's cultivation level? Third-tier? Or fourth-tier?" Yang Feilong asked.
"According to our assessment, this earth-element ability user should have reached the early stage of the fourth-tier!" Lin Yunxi said.
"An early fourth-tier earth-element ability user!" Yang Feilong nodded. "The Blue Sea City Police Department should have existences at the fifth level of ancient martial arts, right? Can such existences not catch an early fourth-tier ability user?"
"There are existences at the fifth level of ancient martial arts, and he made a move before, but that earth-element ability user escaped. Because of this, they thought the guy was scared and would flee elsewhere, but they didn't expect him to still be here and commit another crime last night," Lin Yunxi said with a wry smile.
"To be able to escape from a Yuanwu realm existence, this earth-element ability user is not simple!" Yang Feilong stroked his chin.
"Yes, precisely because he's not simple, we're in a difficult situation. Although we've sought stronger assistance, it's not easy to mobilize stronger existences on short notice, because those existences are mostly carrying out higher-level missions. Delaying by even a day might mean one or even more innocent women will be harmed!" Lin Yunxi sighed.
"You are so confident that I can catch this earth-element ability user?" Yang Feilong's eyes flashed.
"Because you have never disappointed me! I believe that even if you can't, you will definitely have a way or an idea!" Lin Yunxi said.
"Let me think about it." Yang Feilong shrugged. He hadn't expected Lin Yunxi to have such confidence in him.
However, capturing this earth-element ability user was indeed not difficult for him, as he had many means, such as soul-divine sense annihilation. The difficulty lay in finding the earth-element ability user's hiding place.
"As long as I know where he is, I can guarantee to kill him!" Yang Feilong said seriously.
"You really have a way to kill him?" Lin Yunxi's eyes lit up.
To be honest, she had approached Yang Feilong on a trial basis. She never expected that Yang Feilong would actually have a way. And from her understanding of Yang Feilong, if he said so, he would have absolute certainty!
"But the premise is knowing where he is," Yang Feilong said helplessly. "You can't expect me to search from place to place, can you!"
His soul-divine sense could currently cover several hundred meters, but Blue Sea City spanned hundreds of kilometers!
How long would it take him to search?
Moreover, what if he searched one place, and the other party moved to another place afterward? Wouldn't that be a wasted effort?
"We've narrowed down his general location today!" Lin Yunxi said excitedly. "We're just worried about alarming him, so we haven't taken action yet. If you have absolute certainty, I can tell you his hiding place!"
"If that's the case, then it's simple!" Yang Feilong heard this and smiled. "As long as we know where he is, he won't be able to escape!"
"Then let's eat quickly. After eating, I'll report to Shangguan, and we'll launch a net-casting operation tonight!" Lin Yunxi said excitedly.
"Okay!" Seeing Lin Yunxi's excited demeanor, Yang Feilong didn't refuse, not wanting to dampen her enthusiasm for serving justice.
