Following the cruise ship, the plane flew ahead for a distance before descending.

As the plane reached a certain altitude and opened its cabin door, Qin Lu and Nan Yan jumped into the sea.

The water instantly submerged them, but after a few seconds, their heads emerged above the surface.

Wu Yue controlled the plane to ascend, avoiding lingering in the area to prevent detection by the people on the cruise ship, and flew to another location to await further orders.

Nan Yan and Qin Lu remained still in the water, effortlessly floating on the surface. As the cruise ship approached, they swam towards it.

The powerful waves generated by the advancing cruise ship made it difficult for ordinary people to approach, but Nan Yan and Qin Lu skillfully maneuvered through the waves, swimming against them.

With ease, they climbed aboard the cruise ship, using their techniques to navigate through the waves. They entered the ship’s interior unnoticed through the underwater exchange system built into the hull.

After hiding their diving gear in a discreet location, they subdued two sailors, donned their clothes, and confidently appeared in the cabin to search for He Xintong and the other captured individuals.

However, searching room by room would be too time-consuming and could risk exposing their identities. Therefore, Nan Yan and Qin Lu hid in a storage room located in the middle of the ship.

From his pocket, Qin Lu took out a tightly wrapped waterproof bag containing a miniature laptop.

Removing the waterproof covering, he turned on the laptop.

Using the smart devices on the cruise ship, they first assessed the ship’s situation.

“The cruise ship has over twenty rooms, with at least five hundred people detained, sixty percent women, and forty percent children.”

All the missing individuals were on this ship.

But the situation was not ideal.

Despite searching through the surveillance footage, Nan Yan couldn’t locate He Xintong.

Among the missing individuals, He Xintong was the only woman, making her easy to identify.

In the surveillance footage, Nan Yan also witnessed something that filled her with rage.

The atrocities Jiang Nai had once endured were now unfolding on this cruise ship!

After noting the locations of the kidnappers on the cruise ship, Nan Yan looked up coldly at Qin Lu and said, “Brother, let’s split up and move faster.”

“Okay, Yanyan, be careful,” Qin Lu replied, trusting in Nan Yan’s abilities.

With her hands fully recovered, she would have no problem dealing with these people.

Nan Yan nodded, and the two of them separated, beginning to clear the cruise ship of the members of the Black Owl organization from two different directions.

Like two ghosts, they moved through the ship, swiftly harvesting lives tainted by sin.

“You’re safe now.”

In each room they entered, after dealing with the guards, Nan Yan would say the same thing to the captives inside.

Those women who had been kidnapped saw a glimmer of hope for freedom and couldn’t help but weep tears of joy. They embraced each other, sharing warmth and expressing their excitement and happiness at their newfound lease on life.

But after the initial excitement, some of the women who had been violated by the villains couldn’t hold back their emotional breakdowns.

Their lives had been ruined, and even though they had gained their freedom, they feared being looked down upon and rejected by society. The shadow of being captured by the villains would haunt them until death.

Nan Yan heard various cries around her, her expression blank, her brows furrowed tightly.

She wasn’t adept at comforting people, feeling somewhat helpless in this situation.

She also didn’t have time to comfort them.

She needed to find He Xintong!

She had promised Mr. He to bring her back intact, and she intended to keep her word.

Soon, Nan Yan found the room where He Xintong was being held. Peering through the window, she saw He Xintong lying naked and unconscious. Nan

Yan couldn’t just send her back without worry after witnessing her condition.

She felt the need to make sure that He Xintong wasn’t mentally traumatized, at the very least.

If He Xintong couldn’t handle it, Nan Yan didn’t mind using some special means to erase the memories of her ordeal from her mind, allowing her to forget what she had endured.

But it was evident that Nan Yan had underestimated He Xintong’s resilience.

When she walked in, He Xintong was already awake.

As the door swung open, He Xintong instantly went on guard, despite the lingering effects of the drugs rendering her weak. Her eyes remained sharp, filled with determination.

“Okay,” Nan Yan walked up to her, “How do you feel?” Nan Yan gently draped her coat over her, her long legs exposed, slender and straight.

“Not too good,” He Xintong rubbed her temples, “I feel completely weak, like my limbs are noodles.”

“Bear with it.”

He Xintong closed her eyes, nodding slightly. “Go ahead.”

Nan Yan held a golden needle between her fingertips, swiftly and accurately inserting it into He Xintong’s acupuncture points.

He Xintong’s face immediately turned pale, beads of cold sweat forming on her forehead.

As the drugs rapidly metabolized, He Xintong’s weakness lessened. Nan Yan instructed her to wait in the room for a few minutes, then left and returned with a set of clothes..
