Originally, all of Han Fei's speculations were just that - speculations.
He couldn't even be sure if Xu Mo had actually escaped from the building.
But after hearing Chen Ke's words, all his guesses fell into place.
Xu Mo had run away.
He had used the fire department's aerial ladder truck to bypass the first floor and escape.
Since Xu Mo had already slipped away, there was no point in continuing to guard the building.
Realizing this, Han Fei said to Chen Ke on the phone, "Call off the team. Xu Mo has escaped. He was brought down to the ground by the fire truck's aerial ladder."
He then hung up, thanked the firefighters, and turned to leave, returning to the entrance of Building 1.
He signaled for the police officers to leave the area.
"This operation can still be considered somewhat successful," Shen Manyi consoled herself. "Although we didn't catch Xu Mo, we at least caught the fugitive before he did, preventing him from getting there first."
Han Fei could only smile bitterly.
That may be true, but he still felt as uncomfortable as if he had swallowed a fly.
The duck that was nearly cooked had flown away!
They had the opportunity to catch Xu Mo along with the fugitive.
He blamed himself severely.
When he heard the sound of the rescue vehicle, he should have realized that Xu Mo might pull off something like this!
If he had thought of Xu Mo's plan to escape in this manner at that moment, they would probably have caught him by now.
...
In the live streaming room, viewers were completely won over by Xu Mo's audacious move of escaping with the help of a fire.
"666666 He just escaped like that? It's like a dream!"
"This move... it's shocking enough to stun your mother for a whole year. How is this even possible?"
"I had even considered the possibility of Xu Mo growing wings and flying out of the building, but I never thought he'd call the fire department to rescue him!"
"How the hell did Xu Mo come up with this method?"
"It's too outrageous, too damn outrageous!"
"Firefighters: Are you being polite? A criminal escaping with our help??"
"..."
Xu Mo ran quickly for a while, and after seeing that no one was chasing him, he peeled off the human skin mask on his face.
He patted the dust off his clothes.
Then he took out his phone and sent a text message to Song Yixue, asking her to clean up after him and compensate the family whose apartment he had burned.
It's worth noting that to artificially create a fire with a large amount of smoke, Xu Mo had gathered clothes, curtains, towels, mats, and even pulled out the foam from the sofa in apartment 706 on the seventh floor. He then bundled all these easily smoke-producing items together and burned them on the balcony.
Of course, before setting the fire, Xu Mo had carefully cleared the balcony, removing all flammable items except for the clothes. This was to prevent the fire from spreading.
After all, burning just clothes and such was enough.
As long as it attracted the fire department, that was sufficient.
Not long after sending the message, Xu Mo received a reply from Song Yixue: "No need to remind me, I've already arranged for someone to discuss compensation with that family."
In fact, even if Xu Mo hadn't mentioned it, Song Yixue knew she had to clean up after him.
Xu Mo was the challenger in the show, and she was the executive producer.
During the broadcast of the show, any damage caused by Xu Mo to others would naturally be compensated by her.
...
Xu Mo had left the car he drove in the parking space opposite Building 1 in the residential complex.
Since the police officers were gathered at the entrance of Building 1, just a few dozen meters from where he had parked, Xu Mo simply abandoned the car.
He didn't want to risk getting caught for the sake of a car.
After all, if he were caught, it wouldn't be fun anymore.
Of course, not having a car wasn't really an issue for Xu Mo; he could always find a way to get another one!
Xu Mo went to the roadside.
There were no parking spaces on either side of the road.
And there were no illegally parked cars either.
With no ready-made cars available, he had no choice but to try and flag one down.
However, none of the passing cars seemed willing to pay any attention to Xu Mo.
Even though they saw him waving by the roadside, no one stopped, pretending they hadn't seen anything.
After more than a minute, a taxi stopped, noticing Xu Mo standing by the roadside waving his hand.
Xu Mo immediately went forward, opened the taxi door, and got in.
"Where to?" the Taxi Driver asked.
"Grain Road Street."
"Alright, fasten your seatbelt, we're off."
Xu Mo didn't say anything and started playing with his phone instead.
He had originally planned to hijack a car and drive it himself.
But now he had changed his mind.
Taking a taxi wasn't bad either; at least he didn't have to drive himself.
...
This driver was a chatterbox.
He felt uncomfortable if he wasn't talking for even a moment.
So he started making small talk with Xu Mo.
"Young man, from your accent, you're not a local, are you?"
Xu Mo lifted his eyelids slightly and replied, "No, I'm not local."
"What brings you here then? Tourism?"
"Business trip."
"Oh, I see," the driver nodded.
The topic he had just found had already died!
As a chatterbox, what he couldn't stand most was an awkward silence.
How could he go on without anyone to talk to?
So, the driver decided to try a different approach.
"Business trips are great. I envy people like you whose work requires traveling. Mainly because you get to visit and see other cities during business trips, which is quite nice. Do you travel often for work? Oh, it's the weekend today, do you work on weekends too?"
Xu Mo thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Yes, I travel frequently, all over the country. I work on weekends too, no days off all year round."
"No days off?" The driver's eyes widened as if he had heard something incredible, with an expression of disbelief. "You work 365 days a year? Even I, as a taxi driver, get to rest occasionally. What do you do? That sounds incredibly busy."
"Wanted criminal," Xu Mo said with a smile.
Taxi Driver: "???"
I asked what you do, and you tell me you're a wanted criminal!?
Come to think of it, wanted criminals do indeed have to 'travel' all over the country, and they don't get days off.
But who would believe that?
Would a wanted criminal actually admit to being one?
Certainly not!
So, the driver assumed Xu Mo was just joking.
"You're quite humorous."
The next second, Xu Mo pulled out a gun.
He waved it in front of the driver.
"I really am a wanted criminal. From now on, you're being kidnapped."
Originally, Xu Mo hadn't wanted to chat much with this driver.
He just wanted the driver to take him to his destination, and then he would get off to catch the next fugitive.
But since the conversation had led to this point and the atmosphere had been set,
he felt it necessary to satisfy the driver's curiosity!
As for the kidnapping,
it was also a spur-of-the-moment decision by Xu Mo.
It was just a convenient thing to do.
Having a taxi as his personal vehicle wasn't bad either!
At least he wouldn't have to keep taking taxis, right?
Taxi Driver: "????"

nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him.

If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
