Feng Jifei, with a heart full of apprehension, handed over the intelligence his subordinates had gathered to Ling Tian. Upon seeing the name on the intelligence, Ling Tian immediately sent it to Qiu Hong via his phone.
Soon, the Misty Rain Pavilion provided very detailed information about the sorcerer Pazhahei.
The Misty Rain Pavilion was no ordinary intelligence organization; their reach had long extended into East Asia and Southeast Asia, and their control in these regions was no less than that in their home country.
This intelligence clearly documented Pazhahei's lineage, his glorious deeds, and even some hearsay and unofficial histories, presenting Ling Tian with a vivid image of the sorcerer.
Seeing that Ling Tian had not responded but was engrossed in his phone, Feng Jifei grew anxious.
Ling Tian then smiled and passed the document in his hand to Feng Jifei.
"Brother Feng, as the saying goes, know yourself and know your enemy, and you will win a hundred battles. I am currently studying what makes this sorcerer extraordinary. This is the intelligence about him."
Feng Jifei quickly took the phone and began to read the intelligence carefully. After he finished, he was utterly dismayed. The sorcerer Pazhahei depicted in the intelligence was far more formidable than Feng Jifei had previously understood.
Moreover, the intelligence included a report on Pazhahei, which explicitly stated that the man was cruel, vindictive, and that those who provoked him rarely met a good end. The investigation report listed many instances where people had displeased Pazhahei, only to mysteriously have their entire families wiped out. Although there was no direct evidence that Pazhahei was responsible, anyone with a brain knew the truth.
"Mr. Ling Tian, what should we do?" Feng Jifei was slightly flustered. If it were his father, Feng Jinglong, he might have directly offered Ling Tian a favor, suggesting Ling Tian temporarily retreat to avoid trouble.
"Mr. Feng, as the old saying goes, it's not the thief you fear, but the one who remembers! As this report states, Pazhahei is a vindictive fellow, so if I killed his disciple, he would surely seek revenge on me! Therefore, let's lure the snake out of its hole and have him come to me! If he dares to come, I will ensure he never returns!"
"This is too dangerous..."
"It's nothing. I wouldn't take on a job I couldn't handle. I know my own capabilities. The methods of sorcerers are very strange and unpredictable to ordinary people, but to us, they are really nothing."
"Then I'll entrust this to you, Dr. Ling Tian. What do you need me to do?"
"Arrange a secluded residence for me, a place that is quiet and suitable for a sorcerer to make a move! Then, find a way to spread the word, letting the sorcerer know. I believe there are informants of Feng Jiten among your Feng family members. Let them pass the message to the sorcerer. I'll handle the rest!"
Feng Jifei pondered for a moment. Conveniently, there was a villa at the foot of a mountain about ten kilometers away. The villa was adjacent to a dense forest with lush vegetation, and it was a private, independent property. When Elder Feng Jinglong had distinguished guests, he would often arrange for them to stay there.
Soon, Ling Tian was also arranged to stay in that villa. Ling Tian had requested that no one else be assigned to the villa, but Feng Jifei still assigned two servants to Ling Tian. These two servants were loyal and devoted, essentially Feng family die-hards. They entered the villa with the mindset of facing death, and now, they could only wait.
As Ling Tian had predicted, with his disciple eliminated, the sorcerer Pazhahei could not swallow his anger. Although he was already preparing to leave Malaysia, he wanted revenge before departing, to avenge his disciple. It wasn't that his relationship with his disciple was particularly good; on the contrary, the master and disciple often schemed against each other. However, this matter concerned a sorcerer's reputation and dignity. If his disciple was killed and he did nothing, where would his face be?
Thus, he ordered Feng Jiten to use Feng Jiten's remaining connections to find Ling Tian's whereabouts, and indeed, they found results. Feng Jiten did not question Feng Jifei's arrangement for Ling Tian to stay at that villa, as it was normal for their family to host esteemed guests there. Feng Jifei arranging for Ling Tian to stay there was a perfectly normal matter.
Ling Tian was not idle either. Early in the morning, he took the two children directly to the airport. A Gulfstream G650 private jet slowly landed on the runway. The cabin door opened, and a woman emerged from the plane and rushed towards Ling Tian. This woman was none other than Zhang Caifeng, one of Ling Tian's confidantes.
The two embraced tightly. The two little ones behind Ling Tian watched in stunned silence. They were just children; was it really appropriate to show affection in front of such young children? After a while, Ling Tian remembered them and took Zhang Caifeng's hand, leading her to the two children.
"Caifeng, let me introduce you. These are my two new disciples. This is Ling Shuai, you can call him Xiao Guai. This is Ling Ling, you can call her Xiao Ling..."
"This is your Shiniang... one of them, Caifeng."
"Hello, Shiniang!" The two children's address of "Shiniang" made Zhang Caifeng's heart bloom with joy. She took out two talismans and gave them to the children as见面礼. The two children were also very happy, as they had already witnessed the power of these talismans from Ali.
"Is the information ready?" Ling Tian asked. Zhang Caifeng nodded and produced two file bags. "It's all handled!"
These two children were orphans, and due to their young age, they didn't even have Malaysian identities. Ling Tian wanted to take them back to China, so he needed to arrange identities for them. It wasn't easy for a foreigner to obtain a Chinese identity, but for the Xuanyuan family, such matters were not difficult. Moreover, Ling Tian had informed the Xuanyuan family that these two children had excellent aptitude and were also espers, which would give them bonus points when applying for citizenship. Xuanyuan Jie, of course, wanted to build a good relationship with Ling Tian by any means necessary, so they used their connections and quickly resolved the matter.
However, Ali's identity was sensitive and not suitable for accompanying the two children back. Ling Tian worried that the two children would be frightened flying alone, so he asked Zhang Caifeng to take the newly acquired private jet of Bing Tian Pharmaceutical to pick up the two children.
