354: Chapter 353 Restoring Order (Part 4)

"All right."

Lin Jie nodded and stepped up, following him.

Chu Xuan steered the Flying Boat, returning to the high altitude through the shattered floor-to-ceiling window.

Meanwhile, inside the hotel suite, from beneath the blanket left behind after the sinister-looking man and the sofa were knocked away, a long-haired, bewitchingly beautiful woman crawled out.

She was trembling all over. Seeing the Flying Boat had left the room and appeared to be departing, she slowly let out a sigh of relief, then the corners of her mouth curled up slightly as she thought to herself:

"What good luck, escaping a disaster. I must replenish my blood-food to calm my nerves in a while..."

However, just at that moment, a faint voice rang out: "Your emotions are not quite right..."

Chu Xuan on the Flying Boat turned his head sharply, a dark light flashing in his pupils, his calm voice carrying a strange magnetism: "What are you expecting?"

The long-haired, bewitchingly beautiful woman's body shuddered, and her eyes became dazed.

In a trance, she forgot her current situation and everything that had just happened; at this moment, what filled her heart was a strong, instinctive desire.

When this desire to devour people replaced everything in her thoughts.

She felt the world change, as if it were shortly after she first arrived in this world, having found a suitable vessel and replaced it.

Then, she developed her initial killing rules.

As long as this rule was met, she could kill and feed without hindrance; smooth, tender brains were her favorite.

Until she was captured by a man with a sinister Face. Although he often fed her and satisfied her needs to the maximum extent, it ultimately could not bring the thrill of hunting; it was more like being kept in captivity.

Especially while she was restrained, he always forced her to eat strange things.

An evil thought had long been buried in her heart: that when she was strong enough, she would eat that sinister man from bottom to top and become her true self again.

And at this moment, in her trance, she felt that she had finally met a condition, was strong enough, and had eaten that sinister man.

Her strength increased further.

And right now, the two humans standing in front of her seemed to want to escape, but unfortunately, they had already triggered her killing rules, so it was impossible for them to escape.

With dazed eyes, the long-haired, bewitchingly beautiful woman's body instantly turned grotesque, becoming a monster covered in cauliflower-like crystals.

Screeching, she leaped out and lunged fiercely toward the Flying Boat high in the air.

This scene happened to be captured by Lin Jie, who turned around when Chu Xuan looked back, recording it in real-time on the live stream.

To outsiders, it looked like the camera suddenly shifted, refocusing on the hotel room.

And at that very moment, a bewitchingly beautiful woman crawled out from under the blanket, instantly transformed into a terrifying monster, and then leaped over, lunging directly at the camera.

Such a sudden scene made many people watching the live stream feel their scalps tingle, fearing that this terrifying monster would crawl out of the screen and eat them.

However, just at that moment, a thick, pitch-black object flashed across the screen.

"Squelch!"

The indestructible flowing shadow in Chu Xuan's hand transformed into a pitch-black spear, spanning over ten meters, instantly piercing the monster's forehead and pinning it in mid-air.

Black Flame flashed over the spear body.

The monster was incinerated by the raging Black Flame and disappeared completely.

[Your spirituality value + 280]

Receiving the System notification, Chu Xuan turned around immediately and controlled the Flying Boat to break through the clouds, heading straight for the Headquarters Building, a strange gleam appearing in his eyes.

"Although it is still a max-level Heart-Confusing Skill, with the increase in spirit attribute, the effect is vastly different from when it was used before."

"In the illusion just used on the opponent, although it was only for an instant, it outlined many past memory images, and I captured some of them; this is actually somewhat similar to Mind Reading..."

"However, in this way, the Phantom Demon at the time didn't seem to be able to do this... Was it because it didn't have a physical body then and was severely damaged..."

Chu Xuan looked thoughtful.

He discovered that the stronger the basic attributes, the more he could feel various wonderful changes; this was definitely not just an increase in numerical values.

Chu Xuan rode the boat, and even without turning his head, he could clearly sense that Lin Jie was behind him, and the other person's posture and form were naturally outlined in his mind.

Even the barrage of comments flashing on the phone, although he couldn't see them, brought a strange sense of induction, though it was not yet clear.

Then Chu Xuan shook his head, stopped trying, and focused on steering the Flying Boat.

Meanwhile, the live stream's chat was already exploding.

[Is this the power of a Transcendent? That Black Flame can actually destroy a corpse without leaving a trace, yet it has no effect on clothes; it's truly amazing.]

[What was that weapon just now? It suddenly appeared, and it felt like the monster was volunteering to die, being pierced by a single shot; it was simply incredibly cool.]

[Awesome, awesome! The monster attacked suddenly, and I thought the big shot was going to capsize in the gutter, but I didn't expect it to be instantly killed!]

[Scared the hell out of me! I thought that after just killing a small BOSS, a bigger BOSS would come out immediately, but I didn't expect them to all be small fries.]

[A bunch of blind guys who don't understand the trick at all. That Specter just now wasn't launching a surprise attack, but its cognition was interfered with, and it volunteered to go die...]

Most people in the live stream were marveling at how cleanly Chu Xuan killed the Specter, but at the same time, they felt the thrill and excitement.

However, many Transcendents saw the unusual nature of it and were very clear that there was no thrill or excitement at all; there was only the crushing of strength, like cutting melons and vegetables.

Regardless, at this moment on the Flying Boat.

Accompanied by the howling wind, that figure in black, whose clothes were flapping, was already deeply imprinted in everyone's mind.

People were both expectant and curious.

What did Chu Xuan want to do next?

Most people were extremely excited, and as Night Watchers, especially the Night Watchers here in the capital, many were extremely shocked when they saw the live stream footage.

Chu Xuan's words just now had been clearly recorded.

Chu Xuan was going to the Headquarters Building?

What exactly was his intention?

At this moment, Chu Xuan's phone suddenly rang. Opening it, he found it was Xu Shuya. After connecting, a voice immediately came through:

"Boss Chu, when Qiaoqiao and I went to collect the relevant weapons, we were obstructed. The person leading the team is Li Tairen, the leader of our Inspection Group One."

"He must have been keeping an eye on our movements. We had just arrived here, and he had already brought people over, forbidding us from collecting the relevant equipment on the grounds that we had no authority to mobilize it."

Hearing this, Chu Xuan's brows couldn't help but lift slightly.

He still remembered that this Li Tairen was the one who called to urge Tan Ziming and others to go for a routine inspection before entering the Tianxing Mountains.

When Chu Xuan connected the call and stated he wanted to requisition a few people, he had become slightly more restrained, but his tone was somewhat cynical, and he eventually hung up on Chu Xuan directly, appearing somewhat arrogant.

Chu Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "Give the phone to Li Tairen."

Soon, an unhurried voice sounded from the phone: "Inspector Chu, you aren't trying to plead for them, are you? I'm truly sorry, but the amount of high-energy explosives they want to take is too large, which is somewhat against the rules..."

Before Li Tairen could finish speaking, Xu Shuya's cold voice came from the other end of the line: "Group Leader Li, whether it's compliant or not, this shouldn't be for you to manage, right?"

"Of course, this place doesn't fall under my jurisdiction, but you do. As your group leader, I have the right to manage and supervise you." There was a sneer in Li Tairen's voice.

"I advise you to step aside. We came here to collect these things at Chu Xuan's request."

"What? You actually dare to slander an Inspector?" Li Tairen's voice on the phone rose, then his tone shifted as he smiled into the receiver:

"Inspector Chu, the power of those high-energy explosives is no small matter. To collect them, one must go through layers of approval. If they were taken out casually, that would be a trampling of the rules, and it might even cause very serious consequences."

Speaking of this, Li Tairen changed the subject: "Of course, if you come to collect the relevant equipment yourself, with your authority, there would certainly be no problem... How about you come over in person?"

As expected!

Chu Xuan knew that Tan Ziming and the others definitely wouldn't be targeted for no reason; the other party was probably aiming for him.

Is this trying to cause me a little trouble within the rules? Giving me the cold shoulder?

Listening to the extremely respectful laughter from the other end of the phone, Chu Xuan laughed as well, but his words were not polite at all, not giving the other party any Face:

"Li Tairen, I suspect you of gross negligence. I am now demanding you, in the name of an Inspector, to come to the Headquarters Building to see me immediately."

"I will only give you ten minutes. If you dare to exceed the time, I will kill you directly."

"Remember, don't make me come looking for you."

Having said that, Chu Xuan hung up the phone directly.
