Qing Ming City.
 In the ruins.
 Lu Ming swept his gaze over the group.
 Some of them could not withstand Lightning Slash and died, while some seemed fine.
 He was not surprised.
 However, the young man with the long spear, the one that he was after, had suffered the most serious injuries and had his throat slashed…
 Yet he was alright!
 Yes.
 He was well and alive, despite the fact that he was still spurting fresh blood.
 He wiped his neck and the blood suddenly stopped. The slash wound healed in a short period of time!
 Well…
 The young man touched the remaining streak of blood on his neck.
 “If you were stronger, I may really die.”
 He had a cruel smile on his face. “A four-star like you actually has such a hidden move. You hold more secrets than I imagined. It's a pity…”
 Lu Ming's heart sank.
 h.e.l.l… what kind of ability was this?!
 “Wanna something?”
 The young man smiled. “People like us fight life and death battles everyday. Therefore, we naturally major in training our bodies! The Elementalists might have powerful attacking abilities, but when ambushed, aren't they in grave danger? Therefore, although we are not Energy Warriors, all of us major in training our bodies.”
 Shus.h.!.+
The young man was armed with a long spear.
 Buzz—
 Blood-colored lights flashed on the long spear like a dancing dragon.
 “Majoring in the body…”
 Lu Ming looked at the red lights that appeared on their hands.
 d.a.m.n, it seems that those who major in the body nowadays can attack from a long distance.
 However…
 Then again, if they majored in the body…
 Back when he was a three-star, he could use the Stealing Card to fight a five-star head on. How about now that he was at the four-star stage? Although he had just cast a Lightning Slash and his mental strength was depleted, it was still possible to cast his cards with Energy Cards, well…
Should he give it a try?
 Lu Ming was filled with curiosity too.
 Shus.h.!.+
He hurled a heap of cards at them.
 Buzz—
 Lights flashed.
 The Stealing Card flew toward the young man and a mysterious energy spread. However, it was controlled and nothing happened after.
 Did that mean that it was impossible?
 Lu Ming was disappointed.
 True enough.
 It was too much of a stretch.
 After all, his opponent was a peak six-star while he was only an intermediate four-star. The gap was too huge…
 “You're interesting.”
 The young man squinted.
 Just now, he had felt a powerful force that shook his core. Lu Ming's moves were far more powerful than he had imagined. He almost could not bear to kill him.
These moves…
 If he captured him and interrogated him…
 Hehe.
 He had a devilish smile on his face. “I am curious to know what other moves you are capable of.”
 Lu Ming was silent.
 A peak six-star… was far more powerful than he imagined!
 He was too powerful!
 He was so powerful that he felt a sense of despair.
 Even when he used all his hidden trump cards, he still had no chance of winning!
 He was in a different league!
 The Stealing Card was actually ineffective!
 The Cloud Shuttle Card was ineffective as well!
 What do I do?
 Escape?
 That's impossible!
 Brother Cat…
 The Brother Cat is invincible in the Sea of Consciousness. However, it will only swing its tail when in the real world… Perhaps it can bring him away, but what about the rest?
 Xiaobai, Xia Yu…
 Sigh.
 Lu Ming took a deep breath.
 Suddenly…
 He thought of something that had been abandoned for a long time…
 Heh.
 True enough.
 Since it was around, there was no way he would not use it…
 “Let's go all out.”
 There was a cold flash in Lu Ming's eyes.
 If…
 If it was as he guessed, there might still be a way…
 Shus.h.!.+
In Lu Ming's body, a ball of strange and mysterious flames began to burn.
 Bang!
 The terrifying power spread in the air.
 Lu Ming, whose energy was depleted, had recovered instantaneously.
 “Oh?”
 The young man opposite him was shocked.
 Full to the brim?
 What kind of ability was this?
 The depletion of mental strength… True enough.
 He suddenly smiled, as long as Lu Ming was driven to a corner, he would always have some other moves to deal with the enemies. If he captured Lu Ming, all these would become his…
 He was not worried at all.
 The strongest move that Lu Ming had previously used was unable to hurt him, in that case…
 Bang!
 Bang!
 Lu Ming's energy was increasing.
 However, he had just recovered his energy and was going to burn his life to break through to advanced four-star when a powerful thought hit him…
 The burning of life was halted.
 Lu Ming turned back to see that Brother Cat had slapped and stopped his ability in the Sea of Consciousness…
 Current life depletion: one year.
 “Brother Cat… I need to be stronger,” Lu Ming said in a low voice.
 However…
 The black cat shook its head slightly.
 It was alright to want to boost his energy. However, if he used that ability to break through, it was tantamount to suicide. It would not allow Lu Ming to take this evil path.
 “I understand now…”
 Lu Ming's eyes were tightly closed.
 Was Brother Cat considering his interests?
 Did this mean that this was not the most critical moment or perhaps it was enough?!
 Shus.h.!.+
Lu Ming looked around.
 His own energy was at the intermediate four-star level. It was the same as before… Everything was the same. If he cast the Lightning Slash again, he reckoned the results would be the same?
 Something was not right
 Lu Ming suddenly turned and he thought of something else.
 Oh.
 He had forgotten about this…
 Perhaps…
 Shus.h.!.+
Lu Ming lifted his hands and released Lightning Slash once again!
 In front of him…
 The young man was disappointed.
 He had thought Lu Ming would really become stronger, but look at the result, he stopped after recovering his energy. It was completely different from the explosion of energy that he was expecting!
 He was too weak!
 He knew how to recover his energy as well!
 He thought that this would be another powerful hidden trump card.
 It was such a pity…
 The young man shook his head.
 He sighed as Lu Ming cast the same ability again. Although the move was powerful, it had no effect on him.
 Afterward…
 He looked at the flash of blue light in front of him.
 Buzz—
 Lightning Slash was released.
 The pupils of the young man constricted greatly.
He was shocked to realize that Lu Ming pulled out the seemingly ordinary sword from his stomach and fixed the Original Card onto the hilt!
 Shus.h.!.+
Cold lights flashed.
 A shocking aura exploded.
 “This is…”
 The young man's countenance changed drastically.
 Bang!
 There was a vibration within his body.
 He self-destructed all his abilities without any hesitation, turning into a blood-red line to escape.
 However…
 It was too late!
 Shus.h.!.+
The coldness had descended.
 The powerful mental strength slashed across his neck. Biting frost emerged and the gaping wound was frozen instantaneously. There was no way to heal…
 “Lu Yan… This is Lu Yan's sword!”
 He looked frightened.
 Didn't the sword explode?
 And…
 Why was Lu Ming stabbed with Lu Yan's sword?!
 Were sibling relations.h.i.+ps nowadays complicated to that extent?
 Pfft!
 Blood spewed.
 He watched helplessly as the blood flowed uncontrollably…
 No!
 I must not die!
 He suddenly went crazy.
 He tore off his s.h.i.+rt and wound it around his neck. Since his body could not heal by itself, he would do so physically. He would stop the flow of the blood. He was certain that the frost would not last long…
 Afterward…
 He grabbed a policeman next to him and took a bite out of him.
 Gulp!
 Gulp!
 He was sucking blood.
 “I must not die!
 “I will take care of your family!
 “Give me the blood…
 “Blood…”
 He sucked the blood madly.
 He knew that Lu Ming was drained of all energy now. All he needed to do was to get through this moment…
 Swoos.h.!.+
 Cold beams of lights streaked across the place.
 A terrible force pierced through him and he suddenly looked back. A four-star young man like Lu Ming stood next to him. He lifted his hand and shot through him…
 “You…
 “How is it possible that you can shoot through me?”
 He was unable to believe it.
 Even if he was seriously injured, his physical fitness was a peak six-star!
 All this tras.h.!.+
 They are merely four-stars!
 How can they hurt me?
 Forget about Lu Ming, this teenager…
 “Haha.”
 Xia Yu put down the longbow, feeling weak all over. “I am a professional when it comes to shooting people.”
 Not too far in the distance.
 The young man was stunned.
 Obviously…
 He did not expect to run into two freaks!!!
 After a long while…
 His body tumbled to the ground. His eyes widened, filled with indignation.
 Dead!
 Shus.h.!.+
Lu Ming slumped onto Xiaobai. He was extremely exhausted.
 He drained all his energy twice… and he burned his life once… although he was forced to stop by Brother Cat, he had burned one year of his life. He reckoned he would feel weak for a long while.
Thankfully…
 It was finally over!
 Ss——
 Cold winds flew past.
 Lu Ming suddenly felt chills all over his body.
 “Master, it's not cold.”
 Xiaobai helped Lu Ming to lean against her, using her gentle hands to rub his icy cold hands, blowing on them to dispel the coldness.
 Xia Yu, who was just as weak and could barely stand cast a glance at them and s.h.i.+fted his gaze away, trying to recover his energy.
 However… This situation did not last long.
 Very soon…
 Some policemen who were seriously injured but did not die stood up slowly.
 They were the ones who withstood Lu Ming's attacks. Although they were seriously injured, they managed to stay alive. Right now, with the pa.s.sing of the young man, they actually stood up again!
 “The boss is dead!”
 They cast a glance and trembled.
 As the man who had led the operation, he coerced and bribed the police to stand on his side and fight with him. He was the one who made this happen…
 But now he was dead!
 The surviving policemen heaved a sigh of relief.
 Afterward…
 They took some weapons and hacked at the body ruthlessly.
 Pfft!
 Pfft!
 The body was cut into pieces.
 They roared angrily. “Maniac! You are a maniac! We only wanted to embezzle some items and have a rare opportunity!”
Yes, all along, they merely wanted a rare opportunity…
 Corruption…
 What was the big deal about corruption?
 At the very least, that was what he thought.
 But they ended up in this situation due to the maniac. If they did not agree with him, he threatened to ma.s.sacre the city; if they were disobedient, he would kill them. They ended up in this abyss as they followed his lead!
 Thankfully, he was finally dead!
 Bang!
 Bang!
 Several policemen began to attack wildly and hacked at him until he was beyond recognition.
 “Haha! You are finally dead.”
 They laughed crazily.
 Afterward…
 There was a long silence and they took their weapons, directing them at Lu Ming and the rest.
 “Weren't all of you forced into this?”
 Lu Ming sighed.
 “Sorry. We can't go back anymore.”
 The police had a pale smile on their faces.
“Ever since we joined him, there has been no turning back. Right now, we can only… kill you and the rest… otherwise, we will have nothing left…”
 “Why bother?”
 Lu Ming swept his gaze over them.
 Although they were seriously injured, they were still beginner six-stars! If he was in his top form, Lu Ming would not mind fighting against them. But now…
 Lu Ming wanted to get up but felt exhausted to his bones.
 That was right…
 He was too weak now!
 He could not muster any energy now!
 It was the same for Xia Yu.
 He wanted to move, but he could only struggle weakly.
 “Don't struggle anymore. We will end it quickly,” the police said.
 However…
 At this moment.
 A small figure stood up.
 She carefully helped Lu Ming and Xia Yu, who were very weak, lean against each other and she stood in front of them, looking toward the policemen in front of her.
“I won't allow you to harm my master.”
 Xiaobai's tender face was full of determination.
 The few policemen were silent.
 In the past, no matter how vicious they were, they would never have laid their hands on young ladies. But now…
 “Sorry.”
 They sighed. “Girl…”
 “There is no need to feel bad about it.”
 Xiaobai shook her head with a serious look. “Your heart is as ugly as your looks. You look like a papaya that hasn't been finished and has hair growing from it after being left in the open for a long time.”
 Pfft!
 Lu Ming almost spat a mouthful of blood.
 What did she mean by a papaya that had hair growing from it…
 This a.n.a.logy…
 Could it be that the young girl had had too many papayas recently and she was upset?
 “Young lady…”
 The expression of the police stiffened, turning ugly.
 “It's true.”
 Xiaobai smiled sweetly. “All of you are really ugly. You are worse than the man that you hacked into pieces just now. At least he did not hide the fact that he was evil, as for you…
 “All of you are rotten but wrapped in candy wrappers, hoping to sell for a good price.
 “Humph!
 “You are as bad as the jerk boss at the downtown market!”
 Lu Ming lowered his head in silence.
 Xiaobai's a.n.a.logy was too linked to their daily lives…
 Xia Yu cast a strange glance at Lu Ming.
At this very moment…
 The police looked hideous.
 “Are you saying that we are worse than the maniac?”
 They were enraged.
 “Yes.”
 Xiaobai was serious.
 “Fine…”
 There was murderous intent in the eyes of the police.
 They had an indescribable feeling looking at the serious expression of the young lady. Her serious look seemed as if she was humiliating them.
Bang!
 Murderous auras shot to the sky.
 Many terrifying auras condensed in their hands!
 Although they were seriously injured and were unable to make big movements, the divine weapons enabled them to release powerful murderous auras!
 Bang!
 The furious police finally attacked!
 Xiaobai looked at them with a serious look and she swept her gaze over all of them before she threw out her Original Card as well as a pile of Energy Cards in her school bag!
 “That's all there is,” Xiaobai whispered.
 “Prepare to die!”
 The policemen looked hideous.
 Of course.
 They were no fools.
 Given that two four-stars like Lu Ming and Xia Yu were able to kill their boss who was a peak six-star, they would not relax their guard in the fight against the young lady who was a four-star as well.
 All of their moves were lethal!
 Bang!
 Many murderous auras came shooting toward her.
 Whoos.h.!.+
 Whoos.h.!.+
 Beams of blood-colored auras burst!
 This was the most powerful attack that the police could muster!
 Swoos.h.!.+
 Terrifying energy blazed through the world, charging toward Xiaobai.
 Shus.h.!.+
There was a strange brilliance in Xiaobai's eyes.
 Right then…
 She began to a.n.a.lyze them at the speed of lightning. Her surroundings seemed to have slowed down.
 She remembered that her master used to say that when one was thinking at lightning speed, one would feel as if the surroundings had slowed down. This was in fact relative speed.
 Well…
 Before her eyes, several policemen were being labeled with numbers so that they were easier to a.n.a.lyze: Baddie 1, Baddie 2, all the way to Baddie 5.
Shus.h.!.+
The murderous aura of Baddie 1 was the first to reach her.
 The angle was tricky.
 Obviously…
 It was very mad at Xiaobai.
 Oo…
 “Xiao-Xiaobai?” Xiaobai whispered.
 Shus.h.!.+
Lights and shadow flashed.
 Xiao-Xiaobai floated in front of Xiaobai to block the attacks. According to the s.p.a.ce and geometry books that she read previously, she calculated the best position right away!
 “Seal!”
 A childish and tender voice could be heard.
 Shus.h.!.+
The attack of the first person were sealed right away. Since he was seriously injured, his attack was not as powerful and it was only a five-star attack…
It was sealed by Xiao-Xiaobai.
 Afterward…
 “Materialization!”
 Xiaobai's mental strength flashed.
 Swoos.h.!.+
 The sealed attack was directed at Baddie 5 and pierced through him!
 Buzz—
 The Energy Card dissipated.
 Lu Ming would take a long time to replenish his energy after using the Energy Card. But it was different for Xiaobai. The Energy Card replenished her energy instantaneously. The absorption speed was shocking!
 It seemed to be completed instantaneously!
 Afterward…
 She continued to seal the abilities!
 At this very moment…
 In her eyes, Xiaobai had a thorough a.n.a.lysis of the positions of the five baddies as well as the thorough a.n.a.lyses of their abilities, including their energy levels, attacks, and angles…
 Although it seemed as if they launched their attacks at the same time, for Xiaobai, there was still a slight difference in the speed.
 And the difference in speed…
 Was the crux of her attacks!
 Hence…
 Along with her explosive attacks…
 The five policemen who were already seriously injured discovered to their shock that the attacks that they directed toward the young lady rebounded and hit their companions…
 Pfft!
 Pfft!
 Blood splattered.
 The five policemen widened their eyes in disbelief. They still maintained the same posture, however, there were huge gaping holes in their chests, and they fixed their gazes on the young lady in front of them…
 Obviously…
 They could not believe that they would die in the hands of a young lady!
 Furthermore…
 She killed the five of them!
 Everyone was wiped out!
 Bang!
 Five bodies tumbled to the ground.
 They did not die in peace.
