Chapter 325: Chapter 323: The Old Fox Has Gone Invisible Again

Having been tossed to the ground, Blake saw Cheng Cheng arrive and immediately yelled at the space behind him, ”You son of a bitch, you’re getting more and more out of line! How dare you lay a hand on me?”

He was so enraged that he threw several punches at the empty air in front of him, but they all uselessly hit nothing.

”You were just collateral damage!” A particularly horrifying voice spoke from an unseen spot. ”Is this the Holy Daughter you brought back?”

”You old monster, the Holy Daughter is for me, not for you! I’m letting you stay here to be my Devil, not to fight me for the Holy Daughter!” Blake fumed.

He had planned to transfer the Holy Daughters here before dawn.

Who would have thought they would all escape, leaving only this one—and she was so powerful.

”Without any Holy Daughters, why should I stay in this dump you gave me?”

”With that monstrous face of yours, wouldn’t you just get beaten to death if you went outside?”

”And you look any better?”

”Better than an old monster like you, at least!”

”...”

And so, the two men, with a combined age of over a hundred years, began to bicker.

Meanwhile, the two women on the other side hadn’t been idle either.

Cheng Cheng’s attacks were swift and clean, each one aimed to be lethal.

Chen Xing didn’t want to expose her identity, so she didn’t use any abilities that would give her away.

But... even so, Cheng Cheng was struggling to keep up.

Chen Xing’s target wasn’t Cheng Cheng anyway. Knocking her aside, she leaped in front of Blake and slashed down at the air opposite him.

It was a vicious strike!

With a bloodcurdling scream, a horrifyingly ugly old man appeared.

His appearance was truly terrifying, like a Devil with the wings of an Angel.

His face, twisted in pain, was the very definition of demonic.

”So ugly!” Although Blake was used to it, he couldn’t help but comment every time he saw the man’s face.

”Blake!” Brian furiously tried to strike Blake, but his wound was too severe, and he collapsed.

But Blake wasn’t the least bit worried. Instead, he fumed, ”Brother, you had it coming!”

He was incredibly frustrated. ’How did I end up with a brother who looks like a Devil?’

’How many people have laughed at me behind my back because of him?’

Brian couldn’t believe Blake was so heartless. ”We’re blood brothers! You’re just going to stand there and watch me die?”

Chen Xing wasn’t about to let his superpower go to waste.

So, while still engaged with Cheng Cheng, she made sure to absorb his superpower.

And the absorption came with a pleasant surprise.

In addition to invisibility, he also had an Object Control Ability.

’This unremarkable man actually possessed such special superpowers.’

Having been stripped of his superpowers, Brian was clearly drained of all strength. Just as he was about to cry out that his powers had been taken, Blake delivered the finishing blow.

’How disrespectful had Brian been to him all these years, relying on the strength of his superpowers?’

’The finishing blow? He’d been wanting to do this for so long.’

Chen Xing had no intention of killing Blake.

Killing him would make it harder to find Yu Laosan.

So, she immediately fought off Cheng Cheng and hurried up the stairs.

At the same time, she turned invisible and left the underground area.

”Get her!” When Blake saw that Cheng Cheng had failed to catch one woman, he lashed out at her with harsh words. ”Weren’t you supposed to be all-powerful? With this little ability, how are you going to protect me?”

Furious, Cheng Cheng stormed off and chased after her upstairs.

But she had no idea that once outside, Chen Xing had already entered her Jiezhi Space.

Even if Blake sent out all his men, he would never be able to find her.

By the time Chen Xing emerged from the space, day had already broken.

She was again dressed in her Middle Eastern disguise and disappeared into the crowd.

Not long after, Song Yiguo called. He said that despite a small incident on the way, Lou and the others had successfully boarded their flight.

Relieved, Chen Xing turned invisible again and entered her Jiezhi Space.

She planned to stick close to Blake.

Blake was sleeping in his bedroom, while Chen Xing was in her Jiezhi Space, located within the house.

If he made the slightest move, she would be the first to know.

Blake had only been asleep for about an hour when someone knocked on his door. ”Great Commander, Boss Yu has arrived at the Hulden Hotel. He’s asking when you’ll be free to meet.”

Chen Xing: ”...” ’Boss Yu? Don’t tell me that’s Yu Laosan.’

Blake roared impatiently, ”Tell him to wait until I’ve had my sleep!”

’Judging by his attitude, it must be Yu Laosan,’ she thought.

’He tailors his behavior to the person’s status. In his eyes, someone like Yu Laosan was the type he could just brush off.’

Chen Xing drank some spring water, feeling a bit more refreshed, and left the Great Commander Mansion.

She didn’t rush to tell Song Yiguo that Yu Laosan had arrived at the Hulden Hotel.

She would go confirm it herself first. If she could kill him, she would.

At the Hulden Hotel, she searched from the ground floor up. The rooms on the lower floors were nearly all empty.

On the twelfth floor, she saw the speed-type Superpower User who had pushed her into a black vortex.

He had only succeeded back then by getting close to her, making her believe he meant no harm.

She was tempted to absorb his superpower on the spot, but... she decided to just observe for now, at least until she had killed Yu Laosan.

Inside the room, Yu Laosan was lying on a large, comfortable bed.

Lying beside him was a woman who was at least thirty years his junior.

That wasn’t important. What was important was that neither of them was wearing any clothes. They were stark naked, without even a blanket to cover them.

Fortunately, she looked away just in time.

With her eyes closed, she extended a hand. A steel plate materialized above Yu Laosan and came crashing straight down.

When Chen Xing focused her gaze, she saw that only the woman had been crushed to death.

And... Yu Laosan had vanished from sight.

Fuck!

’The old fox turned invisible again!’

Chen Xing reacted quickly. The moment he disappeared, she made a series of gestures with her hands, completely sealing the bedroom with steel plates. Top, bottom, left, and right—there was no way out.

Yu Laosan never expected a move like this.

While still invisible, he started screaming, ”Guards! Guards, quickly! Help me!”

The guards outside heard faint cries for help, but when they opened the door, all they saw was a solid steel plate.

Even a Gold Attribute Superpower User would be unable to move it.

Chen Xing’s Gold Attribute Superpower was already at Level Nine. Anyone at a lower Level stood no chance against it.

”Friend, let’s talk this over. There’s nothing we can’t negotiate... Just let me go, and I’ll agree to any of your demands!” This was Yu Laosan’s usual ploy, one that never failed on the gullible.

But his target wasn’t falling for it.

Just as the words left his mouth, he felt the superpower drain from his body. He collapsed limply to the floor, still stark naked.

”Chen... Chen Xing?” He couldn’t believe it.

’How is this possible? He watched her get sucked into that dark vortex with his own eyes.’

’But... only Chen Xing has this kind of ability, right?’

Chen Xing brought her blade down, giving him no chance to survive.

She retracted the steel plates and, moving even faster than the speed-type Superpower User, absorbed his superpower and those of all the other Superpower Users present before killing them outright.

She couldn’t care less why Yu Laosan had been looking for Blake.

At the very least, she was certain Blake didn’t know her secret.

Now that he was dead, she could finally rest easy.

After killing them, she turned to leave, but... she came face to face with the Song Family Army.
