39: Chapter 39, No. 090943, Su Fan!

"Ninth Safe Zone, it really is the Ninth Safe Zone..."

Above in the sky, the square-faced man muttered, as if recalling something.

"Old Liu, what are you muttering about? Why don't you hurry up and kill her!?"

Huang Lang glanced at the square-faced man, his face wearing a cruel expression as he spoke.

The square-faced man hesitated for a few seconds, then fixed his gaze on Qin Xiaoxiao below, a massive vortex of Spiritual Qi condensing on his palm.

"You and I have no personal vendetta, but since you are wearing that damned uniform, don't blame me for being ruthless. Everyone from the Justice Bureau... deserves to die!!!"

"Deputy Director Liu???"

"Are you... Deputy Director Liu???"

Below, Qin Xiaoxiao, holding her sharp blade and already in a combat stance, stared at the square-faced man above, a look of disbelief on her face.

Above, the square-faced man was slightly stunned, his hand movements faltering.

"You know me?"

Qin Xiaoxiao looked at the square-faced man, opened her mouth, and slowly spoke:

"Liu Yang, born in 1999, underwent Awakening of supernatural powers on September 17, 2035. With astonishing talent, you quickly achieved a Breakthrough to Foundation Establishment. In 2036, two years ago, you were appointed as the Deputy Bureau Chief of the Ninth Safe Zone Justice Bureau."

"Two years ago, during a kidnapping case, the robbers took your wife and daughter hostage, demanding resources for Cultivation and cutting-edge Spirit Beast breeding technology. To rescue your family, the Bureau dispatched a large number of Cultivators and military police, but during the rescue, an accident occurred..."

When Qin Xiaoxiao reached this point, the square-faced man in the sky had already landed on the ground. He stamped his feet frantically, scratched his head and ears, and shouted sharply: "Stop talking!! Stop talking!!!"

He looked pained and twisted, his voice choked with sobs.

It was as if that was an extremely painful memory for him...

Qin Xiaoxiao persisted, "Deputy Director Liu!! That was just an accident. The person who accidentally killed your wife and daughter was sentenced to ten years. You should let go of this past and face life anew, instead of turning into an outlaw and targeting our Justice Bureau..."

"Bullshit!!!"

The square-faced man roared sharply at Qin Xiaoxiao: "That was a conspiracy!!! That was a conspiracy!!! That was a power struggle!!! What would a little girl like you know!??"

"Deputy Director Liu, I, Qin Xiaoxiao, may not understand power struggles... but do you know? Back then, you were the idol of all the Cultivators in our Justice Bureau. You were so sunny and approachable. You treated us interns like your own family. The drone joint combat tactics you pioneered are still used by our Bureau today. Your achievements are known to everyone in our Bureau. Even if you lost in the power struggle... why did you have to degenerate to this extent?"

Qin Xiaoxiao's eyes turned red as she stared at her former idol, who had now become the bandit leader blocking her path. In an instant, disappointment, helplessness, sighs, disbelief... all sorts of emotions surged into her heart like a tide.

"Stop talking!!! Die!!! Who told you to join the Justice Bureau!!! This is your fate!!!"

Liu Yang roared, and the Spell in his hand was suddenly unleashed. Gusts of gale-force wind, accompanied by a dazzling white light, attacked suddenly...

"Deputy Director Liu, turn back!!!"

Facing this Spell, Qin Xiaoxiao's pretty face was cold as frost, showing no fear. She gripped her sword tightly, already prepared for a life-and-death battle.

At this moment, she looked back at Su Fan.

But at this moment, Su Fan was gone...

Just as she was stunned, Su Fan appeared beside her out of nowhere, took the sword from her hand, and pushed her aside: "You are no match for him, let me handle this!"

Suddenly pushed away, Qin Xiaoxiao was stunned, then frowned, staring at Su Fan: "Su Fan, do you want to die before me? I admire your courage, but why don't you listen to me?"

"Section Chief Qin, go take care of them. I will help you clear away these two pieces of trash."

Su Fan looked at Huang Lang and Liu Yang, saying calmly.

"Arrogant!!!"

Huang Lang sneered and shouted, then landed as well, staring at Su Fan and laughing: "You blind piece of trash, open your eyes and look clearly, I am your Grandpa Huang Lang! So many Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivators from your Justice Bureau can't beat me, where did a piece of trash like you come from? Daring to provoke me!"

"Old Liu, leave this nobody for you to kill."

Huang Lang had a cigarette hanging from his lips, squinting his eyes as he looked at Qin Xiaoxiao lecherously: "This chick, her figure is even better than that female celebrity. I'm almost reluctant to kill her. Tsk tsk, those legs, that figure, I have to capture her and enjoy her properly..."

"Fuck, that's really exciting!"

"Old Liu, supporting characters always die from talking too much. We want to be the protagonists, let's stop wasting time with them... Do it!"

After speaking, Huang Lang launched an attack first, charging towards Qin Xiaoxiao.

But...

The next second...

Su Fan had already appeared in front of him, his figure like a ghost, so fast it was invisible. No one present could see how he had launched his attack.

The position where he was standing just now was at least a full hundred meters away from Huang Lang.

For an ordinary person, sprinting a hundred meters takes at least ten seconds. Even for a Cultivator in the Qi Refining Realm, it takes more than three seconds, but he was fast enough to do it in less than a second...

This wasn't even the most surprising part; the most surprising part was—

Huang Lang's arm had actually been severed by him in an instant...

The arm fell to the ground, blood spraying wildly from the severed stump. Only after a brief moment did Huang Lang react.

"Ah————!!!"

Huang Lang's scream shook the surroundings; everyone heard his scream.

At this moment, Su Fan blew the blood off his blade, looked up at Huang Lang with contempt, and smiled slightly: "You are really pathetic. My 'Green Fire Nether Art' only used the first form, 'Starting Form', and you've already been crippled by me..."

Huang Lang pressed his other hand against the spurting stump of his broken arm, his face twisted in pain with veins popping out, the cigarette in his mouth falling, his lips trembling...

Countless Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivators from the Justice Bureau couldn't even hurt a single hair on his head.

Yet this nobody in front of him had cut off his arm in a single exchange, and he hadn't even had time to activate his Spiritual Qi protection...

This kid, his speed is too fast...

Thinking of this, Huang Lang gritted his teeth and shouted: "Old Liu!! This kid is a bit eerie. What is his cultivation level? Can you see through it?"

Liu Yang looked at Su Fan seriously. Although he hadn't clearly seen how Su Fan had managed to cripple Huang Lang's arm in one exchange, the situation was very clear now: the cultivation level of this kid in front of him was probably not lower than his own.

Late Stage Foundation Establishment? Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment Stage?

Thinking of this, Liu Yang stared fixedly at Su Fan: "Who exactly are you??"

Su Fan walked with a relaxed gait up to Qin Xiaoxiao, inserted the blood-stained blade back into her scabbard, and then patted her on the shoulder: "I said, with me here, you won't die..."

At this moment, Qin Xiaoxiao was speechless with shock, looking like a wooden chicken.

That scene just now.

It truly made her both shocked and delighted. How could there be such fast sword skills in this world?

Su Fan... what exactly is his cultivation level?

Slowly turning around to look at Huang Lang and Liu Yang, Su Fan said in a calm and composed manner: "Oh, I almost forgot to introduce myself to you two. I am—"
