“The Hark Gang? A gang from below?”
With a casual wave, Su Jiu blocked the wooden debris. Her expression remained unchanged as she lightly tapped the armrest of her chair, clearly showing a hint of disdain for this so-called top gang.
In response to the furious and chilling voice of the white man before her, Su Jiu looked up, glanced at him, and slowly said, “Guess what the Hark Gang can do if I kill you? I don’t believe a normal local gang would be foolish enough to avenge a dead Initial Stage Battle King.”
Of course, it was still in English. After all, Su Jiu, a former teacher at a key high school, had considerable skill. After dealing with this matter, she planned to continue holding onto E Huo and use that perverted exp skill to learn Bear Language.
Su Jiu’s words were like a basin of cold water, instantly extinguishing the white man’s rage. He was slightly stunned. He scanned the three people in the private room again and found that he couldn’t see through any of their cultivation levels.
Most likely, none of them were easy to deal with. Otherwise, they wouldn’t dare to speak like this in such a situation; they’d be fools.
If not being able to see through one person could be explained by the concealment of Alchemical Artifacts, then not being able to see through all three, combined with their words, left only one possibility: they had kicked a steel plate.
“…Alright, since the three of you are not simple people, then…”
After a brief silence, the white man bowed his head in submission. The runes on his face seemed to soften. He forced a smile and said, “Please release my subordinates, otherwise, the Hark Gang won’t be able to explain it.”
“They have already died in their dreams. Just a few worthless scums with dirty mouths.”
Upon hearing this, Su Jiu shook her head slightly, a hint of indifference on her face. Then, she flicked her finger towards one of them, releasing a weak External Qi pellet.
“He who kills shall be killed.”
The man stiffened and fell backward, his eyes filled with intense fear, his pupils dilated. He was clearly already dead.
Su Jiu said no more. Bai Zhi, on the other hand, was playfully fiddling with the flower bud in her hand. A hint of killing intent flashed in her seemingly cute eyes. She was a being of both good and evil.
She only needed one reason to kill someone – if they provoked her.
Turning to the lackeys behind him, the white man found them all dead in silence. Panic began to show on his face. He took two steps back and whispered:
“You killed these people too. Let’s each take a step back. Are you all heading to Yorde?”
“The Hark Gang has a half-War God Level existence locally. If you decide to fight me, even if the gang leader wouldn’t avenge me, he might still be displeased.”
Foresightedness makes a man a hero!
He wouldn’t be foolish enough to avenge his subordinates. After getting off the train, he could gather a crowd to bully them with numbers, wouldn’t that be more satisfying?
“He still harbors strong malicious intent towards us. I’m afraid he’s thinking of causing trouble for us in the city. Do you need me to act?”
Bai Zhi placed a hand on Su Jiu’s shoulder, half-leaning, and looked at the white man. Her small face held a peculiar smile, like a night cat preparing to hunt.
She had always possessed the skill to see through people’s hearts, but she rarely used it when facing Su Jiu.
“Huh?… I can handle it alone.”
Hearing this, Su Jiu was slightly stunned, then shook her head. Her gaze returned to the white man’s face, still gentle.
If he’s just an Initial Stage Battle King, with her current strength, she could easily defeat him with just one arm.
As Su Jiu finished speaking, Rancy, who was opposite her, flickered and blocked the exit. Seeing this, the white man’s mouth twitched. He gritted his teeth, and killing intent surged in his eyes:
“Are you forcing my hand? Even a cornered dog will bite.”
Su Jiu raised her eyelids, turned her head, and looked dotingly at the Little Flower Fairy resting on her shoulder. She replied softly, “You shouldn’t have thoughts about her, nor should you harbor intentions of revenge when we were prepared to let you go.”
With that, she slowly raised her right hand, her fingertips pointing at the white man like blades, radiating a sharp edge as if to slice through something.
“Tsk!”
Seeing Su Jiu’s intent to kill them all, the white man’s expression turned somber at one point. A flash of white light appeared, and he donned a pair of iron boots with blades on his legs. He moved abruptly, swinging his right leg and spinning like a top.
“Die!”
His right foot, carrying a fierce gust of wind, tore through the air and slammed fiercely towards Su Jiu’s head.
The white man’s ruthless action, attacking without hesitation, startled Rancy at the door. She wanted to warn Su Jiu but it was too late.
Facing the white man’s sudden and fierce offensive, Su Jiu didn’t even lift her eyes. She flicked out her right index finger, and a blue stream of light cut through the air. In an instant, it collided with the iron boots.
“Ding!”
A metallic collision sound followed. The gust of wind struck the tempered glass, producing a crisp sound. The leather seat was instantly torn apart, revealing yellow sponge.
Their hands and feet parted after a single touch. Su Jiu had merely raised her hand to meet the attack, her body remaining still. Her fingertips continued to radiate light like an artwork.
In contrast, the white man stumbled back several steps. He looked down at his weapon, the iron boot, which had a small cut on it, and his heart was filled with disbelief.
His iron boot was formed from a High-Rank Battle General monster. The fact that it was easily shattered by the opponent further validated his guess: the opponent must be a Battle King of the same or even higher level.
He had thought he had a chance to escape, but now it seemed he was truly doomed. As he lowered his head, a petal gently landed on his head.
On the other side, Rancy gained a greater understanding of Su Jiu. She realized Su Jiu had become stronger, both in her composed demeanor and her ability to block the attack with a single finger, surpassing her performance in the competition.
“Whoosh whoosh—”
While everyone was lost in their thoughts, the attendant police officers were drawn by the commotion. They looked at the corpses of the henchmen with shock.
“What in the world happened?!”
Finally, they looked at the surrounded white man. One of the attendant police officers recognized the white man and quickly shouted to Su Jiu and the others,
“Little girls, don’t be afraid! Our Chief Steward is coming over to mediate the conflict.”
After a pause, the attendant continued to warn the white man in a low voice, “Mr. Rellet, please abide by the rules. Even the Hark Gang cannot randomly kill people on the train.”
Hearing this, Su Jiu’s expression became somewhat strange. She looked at the white man named Rellet with a half-smile and then at his constipated expression, chuckling softly, “You’re lucky.”
She couldn’t kill him in front of the Bear official, as the Night Watchers had no such thing as administrative leave. Unprovoked killing in a foreign country was very troublesome.
Upon hearing Su Jiu’s voice, Rellet hurriedly came back to his senses, a surge of joy filling his heart. He vowed that this was the time he most wished to encounter the police.
“Hey, guys, glad you got here in time!”
Then, he raised his hands high and walked towards the attendant police officers with a smile. For him, there was nothing more wonderful than surviving a disaster.
“Mr. Rellet, please stop. Please explain what you have done.”
The attendant police officers were flustered by his actions. They had rushed over after receiving a complaint from the adjacent room and were surprised to find a Battle King gang member upon arrival.
“Okay, sir.”
Rellet smiled and made an “ok” gesture. The police uniform gave him, a gang member, a rare sense of security. From Su Jiu’s words, he understood that the three girls were definitely law-abiding citizens.
At least in front of the police, they would be.
He calmly explained his extortion and threats and voluntarily put on the silver bracelet that suppressed his External Qi, as someone like him, a Battle King, could easily be bailed out once they reached their destination.
“Thank you, ladies, for your mercy.”
As he left the private room, he specifically smiled at Su Jiu, a smile mixed with relief and smugness.
“You’re just lucky.”
Su Jiu returned a gentle smile, seemingly unperturbed. Instead, she chatted with the attendant police officers.
This caused Rellet a bit of regret. As he walked down the corridor, he began to reconsider how he could get the Hark Gang to help him teach these three a lesson.
Later, with the assistance of the attendants, the three of them moved to another location. Su Jiu continued preparing to heal her injuries. She could feel that by the time they disembarked, her wounds would likely be dealt with.
The Little Flower Fairy resumed knitting yarn. However, when she reached a knot, she paused for a second. Her white eyes flickered slightly, a fierce look flashing through them as a cruel smile appeared on her pretty face.
Then, she slowly covered it up, returning to her gentle and cute girl-next-door appearance. She secretly glanced at Su Jiu and giggled, “Let me make a ‘ugly’ little Su Jiu, let’s see the flirt’s expression.”
“Clang clang…” The iron boots made a sound against the iron plating of the corridor.
As he passed through the corridor, Rellet suddenly seemed to sense something. He turned to look at the attendant police officer beside him, his pupils contracting slightly. He quickly stepped back a couple of paces, his expression panicked as he shouted, “Are you a monster?!”
In his eyes, the attendant police officer’s face was covered in dense yellow eyes, his arm completely black, and he was slowly approaching him. His External Qi was useless…
In reality, the attendant police officer accompanying him to the detention room looked at him inexplicably. First, he stood still, then foam began to appear from his mouth, and his pupils dilated as if he had encountered something terrifying…
Suddenly, he became frightened and shouted for help. Because of Su Jiu and the others’ incident, the train doctor was nearby and quickly arrived.
“No pulse, and his pupils are dilated. It looks like death from mental exhaustion.”
He felt Rellet’s pulse, frowned, and shone his flashlight into his pupils. After a moment, he slowly shook his head.
In the Train Conductor’s position, a man in a train conductor’s uniform, around fifty years old, looked at the scenes on the monitor, his eyes narrowed. He remained silent, holding a water pipe in his hand.
An attendant, who seemed to be his confidant, stepped forward and bowed slightly, saying in a low voice, “Do you think we should have the gang leader send people to arrest them?”
“Let’s see what happens first. Our goal this time is very big; there are many sheep…”
With his old eyes narrowed, the Train Conductor lightly tapped his palm with the pipe and murmured to himself.
