"Boss, I just ran into some people from the Ouyang Family outside. They're near the neighborhood, and it seems they're looking for Wang!"
At this moment, a subordinate of Cat also pushed the door open and walked in, reporting anxiously.
"Are you sure?!!"
Upon hearing this news, Cat, Huang Zhentian, and the others couldn't help but stand up, their faces very serious.
Ye Qiu is currently unconscious. If the people from the Ouyang Family find out he's here, it will be troublesome.
After all, as one of the Hidden Clans, the Ouyang Family is filled with experts. Just relying on the strength of the people here, it would be very hard to hold them back.
Even Lin Chuxue felt a bit nervous upon hearing this news.
She had seen with her own eyes how powerful the people from the Ouyang Family are. If they came looking for her, that would be a problem.
"Where are they now? Have they found any clues?"
Therefore, Cat led the conversation, asking the subordinate in a deep voice.
Although Cat and the others had always been careful not to expose Ye Qiu while coming to this area, the Ouyang Family couldn't easily find clues about him.
But, just in case, they still had to confirm the Ouyang Family's progress.
Even if there was just a slight mishap, and the Ouyang Family found them and came to kill them, they'd all be facing death.
So, if the Ouyang Family had indeed started targeting them, they would have to quickly prepare to leave or come up with a plan!
With Ye Qiu still in a coma and not yet awake, they could only, and must, be cautious, cautious, cautious again!
"They're outside the neighborhood, talking to the security guards, but I don't think they know Wang is here yet."
Upon hearing this, Cat's subordinate quickly reported to him, "I have Liu watching them outside. If anything goes wrong and the Ouyang Family comes, he'll notify me immediately."
As he spoke, the subordinate's phone suddenly vibrated, prompting him to quickly take it out and check the message.
"How is it?"
Seeing him receive a message, Cat and the others looked tense and anxious.
"Fortunately, the people from the Ouyang Family haven't discovered Wang is here. They didn't find any clues. After circling the neighborhood twice, they've left, probably to search elsewhere."
Turning the phone screen around for Cat and the others to see the message, the subordinate sighed in relief and smiled.
"That's good."
Seeing the message on the phone confirmed it, Cat and the others finally relaxed a bit.
"But since those people from the Ouyang Family have already found their way to this neighborhood, they might have already guessed that we're hiding in the area nearby."
Cat didn't completely let down his guard, his face remaining serious, "It might just be a matter of time before we're discovered."
"What should we do? Should we leave and find another place?"
Hearing this, Lin Chuxue couldn't help but ask worriedly.
"If we do that, it might alert the Ouyang Family and make them discover us early."
Cat sighed, feeling a bit troubled. In their current situation, moving or staying both seemed difficult decisions to make.
Moreover, making the wrong decision could make all of them pay the price.
The consequences were unbearable.
"We'll take it one step at a time. We can only wait for Wang to wake up and then make plans."
Turning his head to look at the still unconscious Ye Qiu lying on the bed, Cat said helplessly and hopefully.
These words also represented the feelings of everyone there, as they looked at Ye Qiu with the same hope.
After all, Ye Qiu was their pillar of support.
Only if Ye Qiu wakes up would they feel at ease.
...
Meanwhile, the unconscious Ye Qiu was entangled in a nightmare.
Because he couldn't hold his injuries, Ye Qiu fell into a coma. Although the intrinsic energy operating on instinct and the energy infused by Cat and the others had stabilized his injuries,
in just one day, after experiencing several intense battles, he had exhausted and overdrawn a lot of his mental energy, making it hard to recover quickly.
Thus, Ye Qiu fell into a deep sleep. And due to his mental state being tightly wound before falling unconscious, nightmares naturally took hold of him.
He had a dream.
In the dream, Ye Qiu returned to the time in the Demon Corps, where he was with Phoenix as the Demon King.
Initially, it should have been a good dream.
However, the good times didn't last, as the dream shifted to Phoenix being grabbed by the neck by Tian, who grinned maliciously at him, his eyes filled with mockery, intent on strangling Phoenix in front of Ye Qiu.
Phoenix looked at him with pain, pleadingly seeking salvation.
This scene instantly ignited Ye Qiu's anger, and he couldn't help but furiously charge at Tian with a punch!
Unfortunately, no matter how angry Ye Qiu got, or how he attacked, he was no match for Tian, who even stomped him underfoot!
Meanwhile, Tian continued to wear that sarcastic and provocative look.
Then, under Ye Qiu's frustrated gaze, Tian ruthlessly strangled Phoenix to death in front of him!
Phoenix died once again in front of Ye Qiu.
Watching this, Ye Qiu felt angry, unwilling, even crazed, but it was all futile, leaving only intense pain and hatred...
At this moment, the scene in Ye Qiu's dream changed again.
Tian and everything else vanished without a trace, replaced by a woman who coldly looked at Ye Qiu, making him feel very unfamiliar, like she wasn't Phoenix but resembled her.
Moreover, this woman resembling Phoenix merely gave him a cold glance and then walked past him.
It took Ye Qiu a while to react before desperately shouting her name, trying to call her back, but to no avail.
The woman resembling Phoenix seemed unaware of the name Phoenix and didn't turn back even once.
Thus, Ye Qiu could only desperately chase after her, wanting to catch up, but inexplicably, the more he chased, the further he seemed to drift from her.
