Yin Muhu watched the few people before her with a cautious gaze; her sharply contoured face bore so wounds, from which thick blood slowly oozed out, trickling down.
Although their encounter had been brief, she had fully understood that the people before her were all desperate thugs.
Their way of fighting had no regard for martial ethics, nor did they show any restraint. They struck with the intent to kill.
When faced with her full force in retaliation, they showed no fear. Instead, their expressions beca more excited, as if a child had found a fun new toy.
Yin Muhu couldn't help but sigh as she thought about running into this kind of trouble just after arriving in the Inner Ring.
If she had known earlier, she would have agreed to her master's company and not co to the Inner Ring alone. She didn't expect it to be so chaotic here; she had just checked into a hotel and then this happened.
Hmm? It seed the Outer Ring was not much better. Last ti in Maple City, sothing also happened while she was staying at a hotel.
Could it be that it wasn't about the Outer or Inner Ring, but rather that she herself was just prone to attracting trouble? Or was it that she was incompatible with hotels?
Yin Muhu's eyes showed pondering.
"What a bumr, didn't expect it to be a woman," said a woman opposite her, disappointed. Her hair was dyed with gold and silver highlights, and her pretty face was adorned with eyebrow and lip piercings.
"Idiot, what do you know? Won are better; this contrast makes it irresistible…" a shady man with his mouth slit up to his ears, revealing all his teeth, chuckled.
"Whatever, can we hurry up and finish this?" another abnormally pale woman said with a bored and indifferent expression.
"Qiao Ying, what's with you? You used to be so wild. How did you turn into a Buddha after dying once? You didn't even want to go to 'Moose' last night; did the Deep Blue Network secretly tamper with your consciousness?" the woman with gold and silver highlights looked at Qiao Ying with puzzlent.
Qiao Ying sighed despondently, "You don't understand, once you've seen the vast sea, it's hard to return to a river."
"After seeing a real top-notch delicacy, everything else looks like spoiled rice…" the woman with gold and silver highlights said with interest.
"Now I'm really curious, what kind of person must it be to make you like this... It's as if life is aningless without sleeping with him," Qiao Ying replied impatiently.
"Life is already aningless, so can you hurry up? This body was just recently made, and has no fighting power at all..."
"If you don't hurry, the boss will start to rush us..."
Upon ntioning the "boss," everyone's expression turned a few degrees more serious.
"Alright, I'll take command. Quick battle, quick decision, use Plan B…" the man with the creepy smile said.
No sooner had he finished speaking than he suddenly sensed sothing and turned his head toward the sky.
Colorful teors streaked from the edge of the sky.
Yin Muhu, listening to their conversation, grew more vigilant. Just as she was about to take the initiative, colorful flas flickered before her, and with a deep rumble, a familiar figure appeared before her eyes.
She was taken aback and blurted out, "Xue?"
Xue Jing turned his head and glanced back at her, smiling, "Shady Girl, we haven't seen each other for a while. Are you keeping well?"
For so reason, Yin Muhu's state of mind relaxed upon seeing Xue Jing, and a sense of solid confidence welled up in her heart. A smile spread across her tough face as she spoke in a strikingly youthful, girlish voice, "Pretty good, thanks to you. After getting back, I trained hard for a while, and my martial arts improved a lot..."
"Good to hear," Xue Jing nodded, then looked forward at the few people before them.
"—So, what happened here?"
Yin Muhu said, "I was leaving the hotel room to go eat, but I ran into these people on the way. They suddenly ca to invite to have fun with them. When I said I wasn't interested, they tried to take by force, and then we started fighting..."
Xue Jing barely held back a laugh, "Shady Girl, it seems your allure is much greater than I imagined, eting with this kind of trouble wherever you go."
Yin Muhu responded flatly, "I don't get it either."
As they caught up with each other, Qiao Ying, on the other hand, gazed at the face she had long dread of, standing petrified in place, her eyes misting over with a layer of moisture.
The woman with gold and silver highlights also stared at Xue Jing, exclaiming in surprise, "...What a magnificent face, no wonder you lost your soul to him. I kind of understand now."
"Qiao Ying? Are you okay?"
She looked at Qiao Ying, who was gradually becoming flushed and starting to breathe heavily, and spoke with a strange mood.
"...Bro, brother."
Qiao Ying stared at Xue Jing, speaking in a dazed manner.
Xue Jing, as if he had only just noticed her, responded with a smile, "Oh? Long ti no see."
As he spoke, he paused for a mont, and then his tone suddenly beca gentle, "I wonder what the na of the big sister is."
He deliberately paused between each word, with a warm smile on his face.
"Mmm~ Mmm——!!"
Qiao Ying suddenly trembled all over, slumped to the ground weakly, panting as if she were out of oxygen.
The woman with gold and silver highlights hesitated, "Qiao Ying, you..."
She looked at Qiao Ying and clearly saw... a wet stain spreading on her pants, and then it began to seep out continuously, dripping all over the floor.
"Damn, don't tell you just did that?"
Everyone at the scene looked at her with a sense of disbelief.
Miao Miao was a bit displeased, grinding her claws on Xue Jing's shoulder as if quite dissatisfied.
Xue Jing himself didn't expect the power of his words to be so great; he was just thinking of casually earning so [acting] experience points.
Slling the strange scent that began to spread in the air, he coughed dryly, looked at the others, and said:
"Are you all from the Titan God Brigade?"
The smirking, shadowy man looked at Xue Jing, his expression alert, "…Yes."
He highly suspected that the man before him possessed so kind of ability to influence others' spirits, and he had to be cautious.
Xue Jing didn't mind his wariness and casually asked, "Where is that Wei Chu?"
The smirking, shadowy man sneered, "Why should I tell..."
"He's still being remodeled, you know. This ti he had a big heart and spent a lot of money to equip his new body with so high-end goods. But his 'Spiritual Level' can't keep up, the mutation rate is a bit too high, now he can't even move, it's super funny." The woman with gold and silver highlights spoke with a bright smile.
Xue Jing nodded, "I see."
The smirking, shadowy man looked expressionlessly at the woman with highlights, "...Hmm, woman."
"Hmm, man," she glared back at him.
Xue Jing, seeing that there was no fight and the onlookers who had boldly gathered around, thought for a mont and then said:
"Alright, you've harassed my friend, now you need to give her an explanation."
The smirking, shadowy man narrowed his eyes and drew a strange-looking short blade from his chest, "Oh? What kind of explanation do you want?"
Xue Jing was unconcerned with his action but turned his head to look at Yin Muhu:
"Since they didn't succeed, let's just give each of them a beating, Shady Girl, what do you think?"
Yin Muhu nodded, "I'll follow Brother Xue's lead."
The smirking, shadowy man was laughed out of anger, "Pretentious brat, I've seen the mission reports of Wei Chu and Qiao Ying; your 'Physical Power Level' is only around 4, and the danger level assessnt won't exceed 4.5. For soone of your level, we, the Titan God Brigade have hunted down tens of thousands."
"Do you really think you're invincible after defeating Wei Chu and Qiao Ying with most of their equipnt removed in the Outer Ring? It seems I have to let you know, in this world, there are plenty of things beyond your imagination..."
He hadn't finished speaking when the smirking man suddenly felt dizzy, with rainbow lights flashing before his eyes, and the sound of cracking in his ears.
When he ca to his senses, he was already lying on the ground, with a foot stepping on his back.
"Whether there are many things beyond my imagination, I'm not quite sure," Xue Jing said, looking down at the man under his foot, speaking softly.
"But you don't seem very strong, exactly like I had imagined."
