Of course, due to the characteristics of the Azure Heron Fire, even during training, Rin's body was slowly recovering.
The Azure Heron Fire inflicts a bone-chilling cold on others, but in the heart of Summer Rinrei, this azure flame is warmer than the Red Dragon Fire.
"?"
Just as Summer Rinrei continued to adjust his breathing, preparing to unleash another set of punches.
She keenly sensed the movement of breath outside the room door and heard footsteps.
Who is it?
Images of Natsumi Hanae and Chikari Makoto flashed through my mind.
However, when the door opened, the figure that was revealed surprised Natsumi Rinrei, but upon closer inspection, it made perfect sense.
She pursed her pink lips, her ruby-like eyes showing no emotion whatsoever.
Instead, he called out in a low voice.
"Father."
Looking at Xia Rilinliu, who remained as calm as ever, Xia Rilinliu's expression was serene.
But I don't know why.
After Xia Rilin reached Rank A, her instincts told her that her father was sizing her up with narrowed eyes.
It put pressure on her without her even realizing it.
Yes, even though he broke through to A-rank, Xia Yuanliu's prestige in Xia Rilin's heart had been built up since childhood and could not be easily dispelled.
From childhood, Xia Yuanliu controlled her life, and although her path of resisting the arranged marriage was full of rebellion as she grew up, she was repeatedly brought back by Xia Yuanliu.
It was as if it had always been in the other person's hands, no different from the control they had when they were children.
Summer Rinrei felt increasingly depressed, and even breathing became somewhat difficult.
Being alone with Xia Yuanliu was clearly more oppressive than being in public.
Just then, a warm and gentle voice rang out.
"Father, what brings you to Rinri's room?"
Upon hearing this, Natsumi Rinrei looked around, and her originally somewhat dull eyes lit up with a touch of color when she saw Natsumi Hanae arrive.
The oppressive atmosphere gradually dissipated, and she immediately felt much more relaxed.
I don't know why, maybe it's my sister's sense of responsibility, or maybe it's her inherent pride.
Whenever Natsumi Hanae was by her side, she could muster several times more courage than usual and dare to face Natsumi Hanae directly.
It happened in the conference room a while ago.
In addition, Natsumi Rinrei immediately spotted Sengari Makoto, who was following Natsumi Hanae.
My mind, which had been dulled by stress, instantly became clear.
Now that her mother is standing behind her, she is not someone Xia Yuanliu can easily manipulate, so she can be bolder.
Moreover, as my mother had previously stated, the direct lineage of the Xia family is protected by the Xia gods within the Xia family mansion. Even if the head of the Xia family, Xia Riyuanliu, were to attack the direct lineage of the Xia family within the Xia family mansion, he would have to bear the consequences.
She can rest assured.
Natsumi Rinrei absolutely trusted his mother's words.
Thinking of this, Xia Rilinli's fear of Xia Riliu, which had been accumulating since childhood, gradually dissipated, replaced by a rebellious spirit that began to stir.
A dangerous glint and a hint of fighting spirit flashed in her ruby-like eyes.
She returned to her purest form in the summer.
Now, she has also reached A-level. Although there is a considerable gap between the early stage of A-level and the peak of A-level, there is still a possibility of them fighting each other!
Summer Rin clenched her fist, and between her fingers, crimson and cyan intertwined and flowed.
perhaps……
If I have the chance in the future, I can spar with that old guy Xia Yuanliu.
The mother is about to take action against the Kujo Zaibatsu.
I wonder when they'll make their move against the Summer Conglomerate... When that happens, I'll be the first to beat up this old guy and show him my filial piety!
It would be best to wait until he is stronger. Once he reaches the mid-A-rank, Natsumi Rinrei is confident that he can deal a heavy blow to a peak A-rank opponent.
At this moment, Xia Rilinliu was naturally unaware of the thoughts in Xia Rilinli's mind.
All he knew was that, for some reason, the atmosphere that had been suppressing Natsumi Rinrei's momentum was inexplicably broken after Natsumi Hanae arrived.
This somewhat affected his subsequent questioning.
In fact, the investigation into the disappearance of Natsumi Yasutora only began today, so Natsumi Yasutora can only mobilize as many resources as possible to search for him for the time being.
Because, for whatever reason, it is quite unusual that no news from Summer Tiger reached the Summer Zaibatsu all day yesterday.
As a person of Summer Tiger, he should, according to common sense, report his current location to the main residence every three hours to let the Summer Main Residence know.
After leaving the Natsumi residence yesterday, Natsumi Yasutora instructed his subordinates to falsify his location in order to prevent Natsumi Yoshiyuki from discovering that he had changed the plan without authorization.
However, after no news came from Xia Riyu yesterday, the fake butler obviously noticed something was wrong and immediately informed Xia Riyu.
Because of the precedent set by Natsumi Genryu, Natsumi Yoriyuki lost most of her rationality when she heard the news of Natsumi Taiko's disappearance.
But after he calmed down and thought it over, a clear picture of the matter gradually formed in his mind.
First, based on reports from the people in the ancestral home.
Summer Tiger ended up leaving with Mad Bone Wolf. Although their destinations might not be the same, this is at least a clue.
Unfortunately, in this era of bizarre superpowers, too many electronic devices have malfunctioned.
The only way to find them is through eyewitness accounts and sensory abilities.
However, given Summer Tiger's mindset...
No one knows a son better than his father. Although Natsumi Yoriyu paid little attention to Natsumi Hanae and Natsumi Rinrei, he valued Natsumi Yasutora and Natsumi Genryu quite a bit.
He was well aware of Summer Tiger's extremely selfish mind and his ambition for the position of head of the family.
Upon closer examination, Natsumi Genryu is dead, Natsumi Yosuke's strength is negligible, and Natsumi Hanae is just an ordinary person.
In addition, there was that prophecy about the dragon and the tiger.
The only possible candidate to compete with him for the position of family head is Natsumi Rinrei.
It's entirely possible that Natsumi Yasutora would go to the Supernatural Abilities Association in order to personally end Natsumi Rinrei's life.
Moreover, given the cooperation between the Natsumi Zaibatsu and the Kujo Zaibatsu, Natsumi Rinrei should have been taken to the Kujo Zaibatsu after Kujo Shinobu made his move.
However, Rin's return to the Natsumi Zaibatsu is now a point of contention.
That's why he's here.
the most important is……
———Kyoukotsu Ryouichi has also disappeared.
These things are definitely closely related.
The reason why Natsumi Yoriyuki is still hesitant is why Natsumi Rinrei would return to the Natsumi family mansion.
If Kyokotsu Ryouichi and Kujou Shinobu had gone to the Supernatural Abilities Association together to capture Natsumi Rinrei, Natsumi Rinrei would definitely have realized her current predicament, but she has now returned to the Natsumi family mansion.
In other words, Rin didn't encounter Kujou Kaname and Kyokotsu Ryouichi?
Could it be that...!!
Thinking of this, Xia Riyuanliu's eyes widened slightly, a glint of light flashing in them. He suddenly realized a possibility, and a flash of enlightenment flickered in his mind like a light bulb lighting up.
—Kujou Shinobu betrayed the cooperation?!
The true goal of the Kujo Zaibatsu was to weaken the power of the Natsumi Zaibatsu. Under the pretext of fighting against Natsumi Mountain together, they killed Kyokotsu Ryouichi and Natsumi Yasutora, causing the Natsumi Zaibatsu to decline and fall into a slump.
Thus, they can swallow the huge cake of the Summer Zaibatsu in one gulp in the future.
For the sake of profit, this is not impossible!
In a while, the Kujo Zaibatsu will definitely send some news, but now is not the time to just wait.
Perhaps we can get some information from Natsumi Rinrei.
A variety of thoughts flashed through Xia Yuanliu's mind, but in reality, only a few minutes had passed.
He spoke slightly, his deep, aged voice surprisingly strong.
"Rinri, I have something to ask you."
Although he was answering his own question, Xia Yuanliu's tone exuded an air of authority and carried a subtle sense of pressure.
He said it bluntly.
"Did you kill Mad Bone Wolf One?"
"Did you and the people from Xiahuo Mountain kill him together?"
Upon hearing this, Xia Rilinli's ruby-like eyes sparkled, and she slightly pursed her pink lips, a barely perceptible smile appearing on her face. She had thought of something amusing.
He then gave a concise reply.
