[Good evening. What are you doing right now? I'm sorry if I disturbed your time]

Tenku read the message on his smartphone and sighed after seeing that the person who sent it was Setsuka. He didn't know why the girl suddenly contacted him. After all, they just met last night. Tenku was confused about whether to reply or not.

After thinking for a while, Tenku decided to postpone it because he had first to clean up the corpses and the traces of blood in that place. He swallowed all of the corpses using the Devouring Scythe without leaving a single hair out.

Tenku sighed and sat next to Wang Ruyue's car. Then he took out his smartphone and replied to Setsuka's message.

[Good evening. I'm sitting relaxing. You're not bothering me, but I just took care of some rats in this place. So, why did you contact me? Is there anything I can help you with?]

Tenku clicked the send button on his smartphone and replied to Setsuka's message. At first, he was hesitant to send it because he thought the other party was already asleep. But because the time difference between Tokyo and Beijing was only one hour, he was sure that Setsuka was still awake.

Tenku's smartphone rang again in less than a minute, and he saw Setsuka replying to his message.

"So fast! Was she in front of her smartphone when I sent that message?" Tenku muttered and then opened Setsuka's message.

[Thank goodness I didn't bother you. Kohana wanted me to call you and ask when she can see you again. Can you spare a minute for her tomorrow? She's been nagging at me all day]

Tenku frowned as he read it. He didn't know why that little girl wanted to meet him so much.

"Didn't she thank me in person yesterday? Then what else could that little girl want from me?" Tenku was confused by Kohana's request. Yesterday he had told them not to think about the matter anymore because he helped Kohana out of coincidence.

[I'm sorry, but I can't]

Tenku refused because he couldn't fulfill her request at the moment.

[Why?]

Setsuka replied to the message in less than five seconds. Somehow Tenku felt sadness and disappointment from that one word. But then he shook his head, thinking it was just his imagination.

[I can't meet her because now I'm in Beijing]

Tenku replied honestly. He didn't need to make excuses because it was the truth.

[Beijing? What do you do there?]

Tenku was a little surprised that Setsuka kept replying so quickly. It was like she kept looking at her smartphone and waiting for a message from him. Tenku felt Setsuka's mood getting better when he saw her words.

[I'm here for vacation with my acquaintances]

Tenku couldn't tell Setsuka his purpose for coming to Beijing because doing so would only make the other party suspicious of him. Until now, Tenku is still unsure whether Setsuka recognized him when he helped her at Lake Shima. Thus, he had to be wary of her.

[I see. Then, could you take your time to meet Kohana after you return to Japan, please?]

Fifteen seconds later, Tenku received another reply from Setsuka, and its contents confused him. He had many reasons to refuse it, but somehow he found it difficult to type it on his smartphone.

"Haa... I guess meeting that little girl for a bit is fine." Tenku sighed and replied to Setsuka's message.

[Alright. I will make time to meet her after I return to Tokyo. Maybe at the end of Golden Week. Is that okay?]

Tenku will return to Japan one day before the end of the Golden Week holiday, as the martial arts competition will last for three days.

[Of course, that's okay! Thank you for fulfilling Kohana's request! I will tell to my little sister. She would be happy after hearing the news]

Even though Setsuka's reply was just a text message, Tenku could feel she was pleased and excited.

Tenku didn't know that it was not only Kohana's request but also her older sister's, or you could say Setsuka used her little sister's name to meet him.

[That's good]

Tenku replied briefly, but Setsuka's message came quickly after.

[By the way, is it okay for me to contact you again, even without any reason? I mean, we are friends from the same school and organization. Besides, you have also saved Kohana. I want to be friends with you beyond that reason]

"Huh?" Tenku was speechless as he read the message. He didn't expect Setsuka to say such a thing and didn't know how to answer. After a minute passed, Tenku finally sent his reply.

[I'm okay with that. As long as I'm not busy, I'll reply to your messages]

Tenku couldn't say no after feeling sincerity from Setsuka.

[Thanks!]

Setsuka replied happily, and Tenku continued exchanging messages with that girl while waiting for Wang Ruyue to return from her meeting.

***

Meanwhile, forty-five minutes had passed since Wang Ruyue, and the rest of the Wang family had a meeting in one of the rooms in the hotel.

At first, they were confused about the meeting because it was not on their schedule. But later, they discovered that it was Wang Xiqing's initiative under the pretense of planning and preparing for the martial arts competition.

After forty-five minutes had passed, they realized that the talk at the meeting was useless. What they do is like wasting time for nothing. But whenever they wanted to leave that place, Wang Xiqing would always stop them like he was keeping them there on purpose.

"Alright, I'd better come back than waste my time here for nothing." Wang Ruyue stood up from her seat and intended to leave that place.

"Wang Ruyue, don't you want the Wang family to win the martial arts competition? Why do you look so eager to leave this place? Please return to your seats, and we will continue our meeting." Wang Xiqing quickly stopped Wang Ruyue. He wanted to buy more time to ensure their plan went smoothly.

"What does this useless talk do with winning the martial arts competition? Ever since this meeting started, there was no single topic regarding how to obtain victory for the Wang family. I feel you're buying time by keeping us in this place. What exactly are you planning?" Wang Ruyue glared at Wang Xiqing.

"I don't have any plans. I am holding this meeting for the Wang family's victory. So please don't accuse me carelessly because I'm offended by it!" Wang Xiqing pretended to be angry with Wang Ruyue's words.

"Whatever. I don't care what you say. I feel this meeting is useless. So I'll go first. Don't try to get in my way, as I won't hesitate to use violence if you do it again." Wang Ruyue said coldly and quickly left the room.

"I agree with Ruyue's words. I don't think we need to continue this meeting." Wang Zeming said and walked out of the room without waiting for Wang Xiqing's reply. He also felt that there was something strange about the meeting. Then one by one, the people in the place followed Wang Zeming. After they all left, Wang Xiqing suddenly smiled evilly.

"I don't think I can keep them in this room much longer. But I believe forty-five minutes is enough to kill someone at the Earth Origin realm." Wang Xiqing didn't look disappointed even though he couldn't stop them. He was tasked by his father to keep Wang Ruyue busy for half an hour while the assassins they sent finished their work.

"Hehe… I want to see the expression on Wang Ruyue's face when she finds out that her grandfather's disciple suddenly disappeared." Wang Xiqing grinned and quickly chased Wang Ruyue into the basement.

After arriving at the basement, Wang Ruyue and the others went to their respective car parks. Coincidentally, Wang Zeming and Wang Xiuying parked their vehicles not far from her. But the three people stopped after hearing the sound of footsteps approaching them.

"Wang Xiqing? What are you doing following us?" Wang Ruyue narrowed his eyes and asked. The other two people saw each other and also felt the same way as her.

"What are you saying? I don't follow you. I also parked my car around here. After all, wherever I go, it's up to me. You don't have the right to stop it." Wang Xiqing smiled and walked in front of them. He had already found out where Wang Ruyue had parked her car, and he had gone there on purpose.

Wang Ruyue frowned and felt even more suspicious about Wang Xiqing's behavior. But then she shook her head and didn't want to think about it too much.

Not long after, they arrived at where Wang Ruyue had parked her car because it was the closest to the basement exit. Wang Xiqing stopped in his footsteps and froze when he saw the person sitting next to Wang Ruyue's car.

"You... How could you..." Wang Xiqing said in a low voice, but Wang Ruyue and the others heard him. They looked at Wang Xiqing because his words were suspicious.

"What did you say, Xiqing?" Wang Xiuying felt strange after seeing the expression on his face suddenly change.

"Ah, it's okay. I just remembered something." Wang Xiqing forced a smile and glared at Tenku. Wang Ruyue and the others looked at each other and then ignored him.

"What are you doing, Tenku?" Wang Ruyue approached Tenku.

"I was playing with my smartphone while waiting for you. Less than an hour, and you're back. I thought your meeting would be longer." Tenku stood up and put his smartphone in his pocket.

"The meeting finished quicker than we expected. I remember you said you would wait for me for an hour. That's why I came here in a rush. I didn't think you were still waiting for me in this place." Wang Ruyue smiled sweetly and stood next to Tenku. She was a bit touched because Tenku was waiting for her in the basement instead of somewhere more comfortable inside the hotel.

"I'm waiting for you..." Tenku wanted to say that he was waiting for her while replying to his friend's message, but a cold voice interrupted him.

"You... Where are Lei Jie and Ye Xuan?" Wang Xiqing asked angrily.
