156: Section 156

The screen of this phone was a bit yellow, clearly showing the passage of time.

"This phone is truly amazing, so convenient," Ji Ningshuang couldn't help but exclaim as she opened the map and searched, revealing all the restaurants.

She knew that in her world, there was no such miraculous thing; a Thousand-Mile Sound Transmission Talisman was incredibly rare, only affordable by the powerful.

"So many! It's really hard to choose."

Looking at the dense array of locations on the map, Ji Ningshuang fell into decision paralysis.

In her previous life, she only needed to speak a word, and imperial chefs would present various delicacies; she never had to make choices.

"It's you, [Hakka Stir-fry]!"

After a moment of thought, the pain in her stomach forced Ji Ningshuang to make a choice. After randomly picking a place, she hailed a taxi and set off.

She still had over a thousand yuan on her now, so temporary expenses were not a concern.

And Ji Ningshuang also believed that once her strength improved, she wouldn't need to earn money; money would naturally come to her. This was the privilege unique to the strong.

Soon, the taxi arrived at [Hakka Stir-fry].

Due to her limited funds, Ji Ningshuang naturally couldn't order expensive items, so the restaurant's location was somewhat secluded.

"One spicy chicken, one stir-fried cabbage, and one portion of rice."

After receiving the menu, Ji Ningshuang casually ordered two dishes, totaling 45 yuan.

Now was not the time for enjoyment; Ji Ningshuang was well aware of this. Her current strength left her feeling completely insecure.

If not for her unbearable hunger, Ji Ningshuang would have long since found a place to seclude herself for cultivation.

"Okay, please wait."

The Waiter took the menu and turned to leave.

Just then, a man with gloomy eyes walked in. As soon as he entered, he began to look around, and a glint flashed in his eyes the moment he saw Ji Ningshuang.

The man then casually found a seat. If Xiao Fan were here, he would immediately recognize that this person was Qin Hao.

However, at this moment, Qin Hao no longer had his previous bloated figure; instead, he appeared somewhat gaunt.

Ji Ningshuang naturally noticed Qin Hao's gaze, and upon sensing the aura emanating from Qin Hao's body, her heart sank slightly.

Adhering to the principle of avoiding trouble, Ji Ningshuang said nothing. Instead, she began to eat after the Waiter brought the dishes.

Although the food didn't taste particularly good, for someone who was hungry, everything tasted delicious.

Soon, Ji Ningshuang devoured the food like a whirlwind. After finishing everything, she pulled out two tissues to wipe her mouth and called the Waiter to pay the bill.

Throughout, Qin Hao didn't say a word. Only after Ji Ningshuang walked out of the restaurant did he follow closely behind her.

At the same time, Qin Hao took out a mask from his pants pocket and put it on.

Realizing something was wrong, Ji Ningshuang quickened her pace. She believed that if she reached a crowded place, the person tailing her wouldn't dare to make a move.

However, Ji Ningshuang was unfamiliar with this area. After circling twice in a small alley, she not only failed to shake off Qin Hao but instead walked into a dead end.

"Hehehe, little beauty, I'd like to see where you think you can go."

Seeing that there was no way forward, Qin Hao revealed his true colors. After confirming there were no surveillance cameras around, he ripped off his mask, revealing a sinister smile.

"We have no past grievances or recent animosity. Why don't we become friends? There's still a long road ahead."

Ji Ningshuang's heart sank. The worst had happened. Facing a Grandmaster Realm expert, she truly had no confidence whatsoever.

After all, she was only in the Body Refinement Realm now, without even innate true qi. Even with numerous techniques, she currently had no true qi in her body, making almost all her methods unusable.

"Befriend me? Do you, a mere beginner in martial arts, even qualify? If it weren't for your somewhat attractive looks, would your meager strength be enough to warrant my attention?"

Qin Hao sneered. This woman in front of him was truly foolish, thinking a single sentence could make him let her go. He knew that the cultivation method he was currently practicing required dual cultivation with a woman.

And the women who had dual cultivated with him had all died.

This was the domineering aspect of the [Overlord Demonic Art] he was currently cultivating.

And the speed of his cultivation was evident; in less than a day, he had already broken through to the Grandmaster Realm.

"Then you've really found the wrong person. I'm not attractive at all."

Ji Ningshuang was not annoyed at all; instead, she was very calm. She extended her right hand to lift her long left bangs, revealing a vibrant red mark.

Upon seeing this, a trace of disgust flashed in Qin Hao's eyes. Just from her profile, he had thought Ji Ningshuang was a peerless beauty, but he never expected her to be so ugly.

However, thinking of his current strength, Qin Hao still didn't want to give up. He only wanted to become stronger, stronger!

"It's fine, I don't mind you. Anyway, all cats are grey in the dark."

"So, you're insisting on a fight?"

Ji Ningshuang's expression darkened. She originally didn't want to use her last resort, as using her trump card would sever her meridians. If she couldn't find rare heavenly treasures, she would be unable to cultivate for the rest of her life.

This was unacceptable to Ji Ningshuang, but with Qin Hao being so aggressive now, even if it meant being unable to cultivate, Ji Ningshuang accepted it.

She had already sensed an evil aura from Qin Hao and, based on her perception, judged that at least three people had already fallen victim to Qin Hao's malicious hands.

Just as Ji Ningshuang was about to use her final trump card, a voice came from an alley not far away.

"Qin Hao, you're still so despicable and shameless, treating a girl like this. It's simply outrageous."

Chapter 141: Dropping Qin Hao's Gold Coins

Hearing the slightly teasing voice, Qin Hao's body trembled involuntarily, and he was actually prepared to turn and run.

But before he could flee, Xiao Fan had already blocked his path.

"To be honest, it really feels a bit unfamiliar. I suddenly miss your old appearance."

Looking at the greatly changed Qin Hao, Xiao Fan couldn't help but sigh.

"Then I'll start eating more from today onwards, and I guarantee I'll get back to my original appearance in three months."

Qin Hao looked at Xiao Fan's nonchalant words and indifferent eyes, and a chill ran through his heart. He quickly echoed Xiao Fan's words.

"Is that so? Unfortunately, I don't have that much patience. After you die, I'll just throw you in the water. You'll swell up in two or three days."

Xiao Fan ignored Qin Hao's fearful expression and, after a brief thought, said:

"Still, forget it. I think it's better to scatter your ashes. My houseplants happen to need a little fertilizer. What do you think of my idea?"

"Hehe... I don't think much of it."

Qin Hao forced a smile, his feet involuntarily shuffling back two steps.

A cold glint flashed... Xiao Fan nonchalantly blew away a drop of blood from the you long sword.

"Sorry, I wasn't asking for your advice."

"Gurgle... gurgle..."

Qin Hao clutched his neck, trying to speak, but... a spray of fresh blood erupted from his neck. Qin Hao clutched his neck, trying to stop it all, but it was to no avail.

Ji Ningshuang just stood there quietly, silently watching everything, her gaze calm.

Thud!

Qin Hao fell to the ground, struggled twice, and then lost his breath.

"Ding, Child of Destiny Qin Hao has been detected as deceased. Rewards have been distributed to the system space."

As the system's prompt sounded, it officially announced the curtain call for the Epic Child of Destiny, Qin Hao!

"Thank you, Brother... Handsome Guy. I am Ji Ningshuang. I will repay this life-saving kindness handsomely in the future!"

Ji Ningshuang extended her hand, wanting to shake Xiao Fan's hand, but Xiao Fan merely glanced at her, then calmly said,

"Girls shouldn't walk alone in such secluded places. You were lucky to meet me this time; next time, you might not be so fortunate."

After speaking, Xiao Fan no longer looked at Ji Ningshuang. He took out his phone and dialed a number,

"Come collect the body. Remember to cremate it and scatter the ashes in the river."

Seeing that Xiao Fan actually ignored her, a trace of anger flashed in Ji Ningshuang's eyes. She knew that in her previous life, countless people had tried to curry favor with her. Let alone Martial Kings, even Martial Saints would treat her with utmost respect.

"Why are you still standing there? Hurry up and leave!"

Looking at Ji Ningshuang, who was still in a daze, Xiao Fan thought: Is this girl scared silly by Qin Hao?

Ji Ningshuang said nothing, but as she brushed past Xiao Fan, she gave him a deep look.

"What kind of look is that? I saved you, and you're still so arrogant?"

Xiao Fan grumbled, unaware that Ji Ningshuang had heard everything he said.

"Bastard, how dare you speak to me like that! You were arrogant first, and now you're turning the tables! Just you wait, even if you're a Martial King, I'll definitely beat you up someday!"

Ji Ningshuang clenched her fist, thinking viciously.

Soon, Qing Yuan led the War Department personnel to the scene. After cremating Qin Hao on the spot, they took out a prepared jar and put all the ashes inside.

Only after seeing all this done did Xiao Fan leave with peace of mind...
