Chen Haotian quickly packed his belongings, put important documents, his cell phone, and other items into his backpack, and left the apartment in a hurry. He did not linger, his nerves strained to the breaking point. Every step he took was cautious, out of fear that the forces watching him in the shadows would discover him. He knew all too well that he had been targeted by Qingyun Society; if he stayed put, disaster would surely befall him sooner or later. Fleeing was, for now, the wisest choice.
