356: Chapter 355 Restoring Order (Part Six)

In Chu Xuan's line of sight, there was clearly no one there, but under the perception of his Mental Energy, he could vaguely detect a subtle difference.

Especially when he had just cast Heart Bewitchment on Bai Zhiling to make her reveal her intentions, Chu Xuan had sensed a faint emotional fluctuation coming from that direction.

This made him even more certain that someone was hiding there, watching in secret.

At this moment, as Chu Xuan's voice fell, it rolled like thunder.

The light there suddenly distorted for a moment, but it quickly returned to normal as if nothing had happened.

"You've already been discovered by me, yet you're still hiding your head and showing your tail..."

A cold sneer appeared at the corner of Chu Xuan's mouth. Without a word, he directly raised his hand and gave a wave.

A sharp hum suddenly rose as a Slash covered in Black Flame shot through the air.

It arrived instantly!

Amidst the roar, the Slash shattered, and two figures immediately appeared in that place.

Accompanied by the System's notification sound in Chu Xuan's ear, the two figures in that place also became clear at this moment.

"Such a strong Heart Bewitchment, to actually be able to confuse my mind and break my invisibility?!"

"Such a sharp Slash, to actually be able to break my spirit shield and absorb my spirituality?!"

Two voices appeared almost simultaneously.

Chu Xuan's gaze swept over coldly, seeing that both of these individuals were young women with decent looks.

One of them was tall with valiant features, wearing the standard uniform of the Night Watchers.

However, the insignia on the epaulet caught Chu Xuan's attention.

That epaulet represented the rank of a city captain.

Standing beside her was a short-haired woman with a tall, broad frame, as strong as an ox.

This woman's clothing was not the standard uniform of the Night Watchers.

Instead, she wore a pair of simple cargo pants and a tank top. Her muscles were knotted all over her body, faintly glowing with a crimson light and emitting a fierce aura.

In this sturdy woman's hand, she was also clutching a small earthy-yellow shield.

This small shield was tattered and was currently emitting bits of spiritual light as if it would dissipate at any moment.

As the two spoke, the looks they directed at Chu Xuan were both somewhat filled with disbelief.

Standing on the Flying Boat, Chu Xuan looked down at the two people not far away, his voice calm and indifferent:

"You two can be considered somewhat capable. Under my max-level Heart-Confusing Skill, you didn't directly reveal your true forms, and in your haste, you could even withstand a Slash from me with only 25 health points lost."

Chu Xuan's nonchalant words immediately caused the faces of the two women to stiffen and become somewhat unsightly, both feeling as though they had been greatly slighted.

The female captain with valiant features gritted her teeth and said coldly:

"Chu Xuan, you're being a bit too much, actually attacking your own people at the headquarters as you please. Why haven't you released the bewitchment on Zhiling? You're about to drive her crazy!"

At this moment, Bai Zhiling was still kneeling there, crying one moment and laughing the next, babbling nonsense as if she had fallen into some kind of illusion.

"Wasn't it you who sent her to test me?" Chu Xuan said faintly. "Now, is my strength enough to satisfy you?"

"It was just a small test, yet your reaction is so intense. You wouldn't happen to be lacking confidence in yourself, would you..."

The female captain wore a cold sneer, but before she could finish her words, Chu Xuan raised his hand and pointed again.

Another Slash shot out.

The tall, strong, short-haired woman's shield reconsolidated, wanting to help block it, but she was a step too late.

With a squelch, blood erupted from the female captain's chest.

She was sent flying backward. Accompanied by the attachment of the Black Flame, although it quickly dissipated, it caused her to let out a shrill scream.

"Hmm, you're right. I indeed lack confidence in myself, so I need to use my strength to prove it."

Chu Xuan looked at the female captain lying on the ground with eyes full of resentment and asked calmly, "Now, are you convinced?"

As he spoke, without waiting for an answer, Chu Xuan slightly shifted the direction of his raised finger and let it fall on the sturdy woman.

Vaguely, Chu Xuan felt a sense of familiarity from this sturdy woman.

It was like Jian Mei, Huang Xiong, and the others he had encountered in the War Dragon World.

However, Chu Xuan didn't bother to care about the specific identities of these people.

Since things had already come out into the open, he might as well be arrogant and domineering for once today.

Anyone who dared to stand out and provoke him or refuse to submit would be crushed!

At the same time, the small shield in the sturdy woman's hand had already reconsolidated into form.

She had already assumed a defensive posture, ready at any moment to face Chu Xuan's Slash.

But what made her somewhat puzzled was that the Slash, which should have been instantaneous, for some reason was delayed.

"The defense of your shield shouldn't be limited to just this, right? I'll give you time to use your strongest defense."

As Chu Xuan's words left his mouth, the sturdy woman's face turned even redder, once again feeling greatly humiliated.

"Don't blame me for not giving you a chance."

As the voice fell, a long, dull humming sound echoed in the area.

Chu Xuan's fingertip glowed slightly, and this light became more and more intense.

The Slash was on the verge of being released, and a sharp intent had already spread out.

"Fine, this is what you said. As long as you can break my shield again, I'll do whatever you want. Otherwise, you'll obediently kneel and apologize to us!"

The sturdy woman gave a cold laugh.

She immediately stared intently at the shield in her hand, concentrating fully. Soon, that small shield's earthy-yellow light flourished, surging as it transformed into a massive shield over a person's height, incredibly heavy.

It slammed onto the ground, causing cracks to appear on the bluestone pavement outside the Headquarters Building.

"Come on, even a 180mm high-explosive armor-piercing shell couldn't possibly..."

The sturdy woman suddenly looked up, only to see the Slash already shooting through the air towards her.

It was still only about a meter long, but the sharp, piercing light within it was far stronger than before, even showing through the covering Fire of Nirvana.

"This Slash is wrong..."

The sturdy woman's pupils suddenly contracted. She wanted to dodge, but it was already too late, and with her speed, there was simply no way to avoid it.

Just at the moment her thought had barely surfaced, the Slash emitting an incomparably sharp light had already landed on the earthy-yellow great shield.

In an instant, the light flourished.

Boom—!!

A deafening roar erupted in the area, and that seemingly incredibly heavy great shield actually let out an ear-piercing sound.

A massive force came through, and the sturdy woman gritted her teeth hard, bracing herself behind the great shield.

But in the next instant, the great shield shattered, turning into bits of light that dissipated.

The Slash's momentum did not stop, slamming into the sturdy woman. She was instantly sent flying like a ragdoll, landing beside the female captain.

A deep gash that reached the bone was left on her body, and blood continuously spurted out.

[Your spirituality value +382]

"How could this be..." The sturdy woman's face was full of shock.

"Now, are you convinced?" Chu Xuan spoke indifferently.

The sturdy woman's expression shifted, then she took a deep breath and gritted her teeth, saying, "I, Wen Wanrou, keep my word. No matter what you want to do to me, I can satisfy you."
