80: Chapter 80: The Battle Begins Five Seconds After Meeting

A Genius Onmyoji Rarely Seen in a Thousand Years?

Jiang Qin was not stupid; on the contrary, she was very intelligent, and her studies were excellent.

Likewise, she also possessed the keen intuition that comes with being a girl.

The Onmyoji from Sakurajima, Uesugi Akemi.

These two phrases instantly connected in her mind.

"Brother."

Jiang Qin looked down slowly at Fang Xun's hands wrapped around her chest, her little fangs digging into Fang Xun's wrist.

She bit down hard.

"Hiss————"

Just as Fang Xun was sucking in a sharp breath from the pain, Jiang Qin had already slipped out of his embrace.

'Can't even hold on tight enough.'

Jiang Qin muttered softly, then said:

"Brother, I'm going to the Special Affairs Bureau for a bit. Take good care of Tang Xiaotang and the others."

"Okay, go on, go on."

Fang Xun could only wave his hand as he watched Jiang Qin leave.

When Jiang Qin walked away, another curious voice sounded from the living room. Facing Jiang Qin, this voice was naturally not as restrained.

"Qin Qin! Did big brother do something bad?" Tang Xiaotang rushed over to Jiang Qin with great concern, examining her from head to toe.

She felt that Jiang Qin's clothes were all messy.

Oh no, could big brother be a pervert who likes his little sister?

"N-No."

Jiang Qin finally emerged from her previous emotion. Recalling what just happened, she instantly blushed.

"What did big brother do!"

Seeing Jiang Qin blush, Tang Xiaotang's eyes widened.

When had her Qin Qin ever been this shy! It’s over, big brother must be a pervert!

"It's... nothing... Ah, Xiao Tang, the Captain asked me to go to the Special Affairs Bureau. I'm leaving now. You play with Yue Yue and Lian Lian first. I'll be back soon, very soon."

With that, Jiang Qin broke free from Tang Xiaotang's embrace and walked out the door.

Watching Jiang Qin leave, Tang Xiaotang was petrified on the spot.

Qin Qin actually left her embrace voluntarily; this was the first time.

Was there no more love?

This was all big brother's fault! He must have done something to make Qin Qin treat her this way!

Tang Xiaotang looked back into the room, her gaze sharp.

She had to keep Qin Qin away from big brother.

But what should she do?

Tang Xiaotang withdrew her gaze and pondered secretly.

Maybe I should just drug him.

Instant results...

...

On the other side, Jiang Qin was already sitting in the car sent to pick her up at the entrance.

Lu Li had specifically come to invite Jiang Qin, so naturally, she couldn't let Jiang Qin travel on her own.

She had specifically hailed a cab and parked it right outside Jiang Qin's residential complex.

Before getting into the car, Jiang Qin said goodbye to Old Man Wang again.

After getting in, Lu Li's message popped up with a series of beeps.

"Jiang Qin, once you arrive, it's fight time! Don't let our great Eastern nation lose face!"

Jiang Qin looked at Lu Li's message and truly didn't know what to say.

Especially thinking that this Genius Onmyoji, rarely seen in a thousand years, might very well be brother's dog...

"Captain, what is her name?"

Although she wasn't certain yet, Jiang Qin had already categorized the opponent as hers.

"Name? Let me think."

Lu Li first sent a message, and then shortly after, sent another one.

"I asked. Uesugi Akemi."

Jiang Qin looked at the name. Although she was somewhat prepared, she was still stunned for a long time.

It really was her.

"Captain, did you tell her my name?"

Jiang Qin asked again.

"Not yet. We'll wait for you to introduce yourself when you get here."

"Okay, Captain. I'll be right there."

After sending the message, Jiang Qin turned off her phone screen and tucked it into the pocket of her skirt.

On her fingertips, a stream of emerald green light flickered intermittently.

Before long, the car finally arrived in front of the Special Affairs Bureau.

Lu Li was already waiting at the entrance.

"Jiang Qin, come."

Lu Li opened the door for Jiang Qin and pulled her toward the entrance of the Special Affairs Bureau.

"Let me tell you, Jiang Qin, those friends from Sakurajima are so arrogant.

Today, we are going to crush their spirit! The Bureau Chief even made a bet. If you win, we can freeload off their labor for a year."

"And if we lose?"

Jiang Qin asked preemptively.

"Lose? We can't lose. You're his little sister... someone he sees every day. How could he let anything happen to you?

Just go fight! There's nothing to be afraid of!"

Lu Li's confidence was palpable.

Under Fang Xun's purely emotional power, if Jiang Qin even got a scratch, he could instantly teleport over and slap the person who hurt her three times.

"Oh..."

Jiang Qin nodded and clenched her fists tightly.

She had to win, and win beautifully.

"Let's go!"

Lu Li fiercely grabbed Jiang Qin's hand and led her into the elevator heading to the underground testing ground.

Not long after, the elevator doors opened.

What greeted Jiang Qin's eyes was a somewhat familiar scene.

She had been to this place several times before.

Currently, quite a few people had gathered here.

In the front, groups of middle-aged men surrounded Wei Heng, discussing something.

That dazzlingly beautiful Miko stood alone to the side, appearing slightly out of place.

"Jiang Qin, see her? That's her. Beat her up later, don't hold back."

Lu Li instructed Jiang Qin as they walked forward.

However, at this moment, Jiang Qin could no longer clearly hear Lu Li's words.

Even when that group of middle-aged men gathered around and Wei Heng enthusiastically introduced their Dongcheng City treasure to them, Jiang Qin didn't clearly hear those long pleasantries, only responding mechanically.

By the time she snapped back to reality, she was already standing in front of Uesugi Akemi.

"Older Sister Akemi, we meet again."

Jiang Qin extended her hand and placed it in front of Uesugi Akemi.

Suddenly, Jiang Qin felt a strange sense of pride in her heart.

In front of Brother, I can stand tall, while you can only kneel.

"It's you."

Uesugi Akemi looked at Jiang Qin, also filled with disbelief.

She had initially thought Jiang Qin was just an unlucky ordinary person deceived by a Disaster Beast.

Who knew she was actually the Prodigy of Dongcheng City?

"Yes, Older Sister Akemi."

The interaction between the two surprised Lu Li.

Uesugi Akemi had just arrived, so how could the two have already met?

"You two know each other!?"

Lu Li asked in astonishment.

"Yes... we know each other."

Uesugi Akemi sounded a bit flustered.

"Older Sister Akemi is Brother's friend."

Jiang Qin stated directly: "I just met Older Sister Akemi today when she came over to play at our house."

"Huh?"

Lu Li was completely shocked.

Fang Xun's friend?

Lu Li scrutinized Uesugi Akemi up and down several times, suddenly feeling a sense of defeat.

No wonder Fang Xun wasn't replying to her messages; it turned out he had a young sister figure.

Tsk.

However, Lu Li quickly realized something.

What if Fang Xun was actually in a relationship?

A young person in love can be extremely irrational.

Thinking this, Lu Li suddenly leaned close to Jiang Qin's ear:

"Your brother, he didn't run off with her, did he?"
