Chapter 667: Chapter 667: Good Morning!
Fang Bai moved like a dragon-snake, his speed astonishing. One moment he was near Isabella, and in the blink of an eye, he was already a hundred meters away, vanishing into the vastness of the boundless desert.
Isabella stood in place, silently watching Fang Bai leave. After a long, dazed moment, she let out a deep sigh, stepped back to the great hall, and sat down on the lofty stone chair.
She set her staff aside, propped her chin with one hand, her mind in a messy whirl, filled with the infuriating face of the young Huaxia man.
"That man is simply too powerful! During our fight just now, he was thoroughly in his element, clearly holding back some of his strength... Who on earth is he? Why has he been unknown and inconspicuous? If that man joins the ’Dragon Guard’ of Huaxia in the future, it would be a disaster for the ’Statue of Liberty’!"
Isabella murmured to herself, her face filled with worry.
She sat there in a daze for a while, then summoned the Huo Niao back, not long after it had left.
The "World Meta-Human Organization Elite Competition" was about to be held, and the appearance of that young Huaxia man in Las Vegas warranted Isabella’s utmost vigilance.
"Respected Miss Isabella, what’s wrong with you? Did something happen?"
When Huo Niao returned and reappeared in the white castle’s great hall, seeing Isabella’s listless, dispirited appearance, so vastly different from her usual spirited, confident demeanor, it was taken aback, knowing something must have happened during its absence.
"Huo Niao, shortly after you left, an uninvited guest came..."
In the colossal organization of the "Statue of Liberty," only a handful of people are considered confidants and trusted implicitly by Isabella, and Huo Niao is one of them. Therefore, there were many things that Isabella was willing to discuss with Huo Niao.
She contained her emotions, speaking in a calm tone as she recounted the recent events to Huo Niao, finishing with her lips tightly sealed and brows deeply furrowed, she sighed, "That Huaxia man came without a trace and left just as mysteriously after fighting with me. If he had wanted to kill me, you might be looking at my corpse right now. I can feel that the Huaxia man bore me no ill will... How strange..."
Huo Niao wouldn’t doubt Isabella’s words, but it hadn’t expected someone capable of overpowering even the greatly admired Miss Isabella to exist in this world.
"I’ll call some powerhouses right away to reinforce the perimeter surveillance of the castle... Moreover, I’ll also use our ’Statue of Liberty’s’ network resources to investigate that Huaxia man. He might be in Las Vegas..."
"Alright, go ahead and do that! Remember to report back to me as soon as there’s any news!" said Isabella, waving her hand weakly.
Isabella held little hope for the investigation mentioned by Huo Niao; the Huaxia man was too strong, like a Divine Dragon whose head was seen but not the tail. She had failed to deal with him herself, so expecting her subordinates to find his whereabouts was practically impossible.
Nevertheless, Isabella decided to let Huo Niao conduct the search; after all, there might be some clues discovered.
Without figuring out the identity and background of that mysterious Huaxia man, Isabella knew she would have endless sleepless nights.
After Huo Niao left, Isabella retreated back into her bedroom in the great hall. After washing up and making up, she left the castle with her staff, heading towards the downtown area of Las Vegas.
Shortly after daybreak, teams sent by Meta-Human organizations from around the world would converge at a secret venue in Las Vegas called ’Light of Freedom’. As the leader of the "Statue of Liberty," she needed to perform her duties as the host.
...
At seven in the morning, the Dragon Maiden got up, washed, and the first thing she did was knock on the door of Fang Bai’s room.
Last night, the Dragon Maiden, Long Da, Long Er, and others had fun until very late before returning, yet there was no sign of Fang Bai; it wasn’t until nearly dawn that they heard noises coming from Fang Bai’s room.
The Dragon Maiden was very curious about what Fang Bai had been doing out almost all night, especially since Las Vegas is not only known as the "Entertainment Capital of the World" but also as a place that countless men long for—the "Town of Gentle Pleasures." Every night when darkness falls, you can see a variety of dazzling women out on the streets, soliciting clients.
The Dragon Maiden worried that Fang Bai, a young man full of vigor, might not be able to resist the temptations of those dazzling beauties and indulge in the "drunken pleasures of the gentle town."
At the thought, the Dragon Maiden blushed slightly, secretly thinking to herself that Fang Bai was their instructor, as well as the leader of their small team. Even if he really went off to seek pleasure, how could she have the right to interfere?
Although she felt it might be inappropriate to ask Fang Bai where he had been last night, the Dragon Maiden, as if possessed, knocked on Fang Bai’s door anyway.
The door opened quickly, and Fang Bai’s handsome face appeared in front of the Dragon Maiden, a faint smile on his lips.
"Dragon Maiden, good morning!"
Fang Bai greeted the Dragon Maiden with a smile.
Fang Bai seemed to be in a good mood; there was no trace of alcohol on him, nor the scent of a woman’s perfume, nothing that suggested he’d been in the "gentle town" in the arms of beauties.
The Dragon Maiden had intended to ask Instructor Fang where he had been the night before, but when the words reached her lips, they turned into, "Good morning, Instructor Fang!"
Seeing the Dragon Maiden standing outside the door with an odd expression on her face, Fang Bai curiously asked, "Dragon Maiden, is something the matter?"
"Ah? Oh... I was just checking to see if Instructor Fang was up yet... Right, after washing up, let’s go have breakfast together. Then, at eight o’clock, a car from the Statue of Liberty faction will come to pick us up... Um, I’ll go to the dining room first..."
The Dragon Maiden said and quickly turned to leave.
"This girl... what an odd one..."
Fang Bai watched the Dragon Maiden’s retreating figure, shaking his head with a laugh.
Fang Bai quickly got ready and met up with the Dragon Maiden, Long Da, and others in the dining room.
Fang Bai had originally wanted Yang Xudong and his daughter Xiao Yu to rest at the hotel, but Xiao Yu was very attached to the Dragon Maiden. Hearing that the Dragon Maiden was going out, she pleaded earnestly to be taken along.
The "World Meta-Human Elite Championship" was a competition where meta-humans from around the world came to test their strengths, and it did not pose any dangers. After consulting Fang Bai, the Dragon Maiden agreed to take Xiao Yu with them.
Once Xiao Yu was coming, Yang Xudong, as her father, naturally had to accompany her.
Although the "World Meta-Human Elite Championship" didn’t allow spectators, the Dragon Guard was one of the seven major meta-human organizations in the world, holding significant influence. Thus, bringing along two extra people should not be a problem.
After breakfast, Fang Bai and the others went to the hotel’s ground floor lounge to sit on the sofas and wait for someone from the Statue of Liberty faction to arrive.
Around eight o’clock, a bus stopped at the hotel entrance, and two burly men—one black and one white—walked into the hotel. After glancing at Fang Bai and the group, the white man approached Fang Bai and said in fluent Huaxia, "You are Mr. Fang from Huaxia, correct?"
