Bang Bang!! Bang Bang Bang!!!
Crash!!!
In the bar, Hao Siqi relentlessly attacked Yuujin, knocking over tables and counters around them.
Except for the heartbroken owner, everyone else was cheering excitedly.
Hao Siqi's name was well-known in the dark underworld, and people knew her skills were extraordinary. Even unarmed, she could easily take down several men.
Surprisingly, after exchanging dozens of moves, she still hadn't taken down the young man!
"Stop, Miss Hao Siqi."
"No matter how strong you are, you are nowhere near my level. Even if your strength increased a hundredfold, you couldn't hurt me at all."
Effortlessly blocking a sweeping kick from Hao Siqi, Yuujin said with a bored tone.
Though Yuujin spoke the truth, others didn't see it that way. Especially Hao Siqi, who, face flushed red, felt like she was about to explode with rage.
No one had ever dared to look down on her like this!
Despite her fury, Hao Siqi didn't lose her composure. It was clear that anyone who could block her attacks so easily was also a skilled fighter.
But so what if he's skilled? I've got a gun!
Without a word, Hao Siqi jumped back, creating some distance between herself and Yuujin. Then, she drew a handgun and fired several shots at him.
Yuujin's figure blurred as the bullets passed through where he had been standing, followed by several yells of pain from the unfortunate souls behind him.
"What?!"
Ignoring the unlucky bystanders, Hao Siqi shot several shots again and stared in disbelief. Her bullets had clearly hit the guy—why wasn't he hurt?!
With a cold glare, an unconvinced Hao Siqi fired several more rounds, determined to see through this young man's tricks.
But this time, Yuujin didn't even bother to dodge. His arm moved in a blur, effortlessly catching each of Hao Siqi's bullets.
"Ahhh... Ahhhh..."
"He...he caught the bullets!"
Everyone could see it now. The once boisterous bar fell silent, and the crowd gaped in shock, looking like they'd just seen a ghost.
Catching a blade bare-handed was one thing—even if they couldn't do it, they knew it was possible for some. But catching bullets? Could any human really do that?
A monster! That kid was a monster!
"Miss Hao Siqi, do you still want to resist?"
"While I prefer to use gentler methods with beautiful ladies, my patience has its limits."
Sighing, Yuujin flicked a bullet, and it whizzed past Hao Siqi's ear, cutting off a few strands of her golden hair.
"I...I..."
The entire bar was plunged into a deathly silence. Hao Siqi seemed rattled by the unbelievable display and let her gun fall to the floor with a clatter.
But a moment later, panic turned to determination as Hao Siqi sneered.
"Die!"
Producing a grenade from who-knows-where, Hao Siqi pulled the pin and threw it at Yuujin, then leaped out of the bar without looking back.
So what if you can catch bullets? Did you really think that would scare me?
If you can catch this grenade, I'll admit you're better!
Boom!!!
Just as Hao Siqi had escaped, a towering burst of flames erupted from the bar, with screams from the unlucky patrons inside.
"Kid, you only have yourself to blame for seeking death."
"But I had a good time tonight, so thanks."
Blowing a kiss at the fiery ruins, Hao Siqi pulled a plane from a capsule, and with a carefree pat on her pants, took off.
Whoosh!
Not long after her departure, a powerful gust of wind scattered the flames and sent debris flying. Emerging from the blaze, Yuujin appeared unscathed, encased in an aura of energy.
Surveying the ruins and glancing at the fast-disappearing Hao Siqi, Yuujin couldn't help but smirk.
Unconcerned with others' lives, she truly was a ruthless woman.
But do you really think you can get away after stealing from me?
With a powerful stomp, the ground caved, and Yuujin shot off like a cannonball in pursuit.
…
"Humming…humming…"
Flying over the city, Hao Siqi hummed a happy tune.
She was a thief, a woman who chased freedom and thrills. Far from being affected by what had happened, the night's events filled her with exhilaration.
That kid Yuujin, didn't he say he was the CEO of Seven Dragon Balls Inc.? Then he must be connected to Bulma and Tights..
When his body is found tomorrow, I bet their reactions will be priceless!
Ah, I wish I could see it myself.
But at that moment—
"Miss Hao Siqi, where exactly are you headed?"
Yuujin's voice suddenly rang in Hao Siqi's ear.
Nearly falling out of her plane in fright, Hao Siqi turned her head to see Yuujin, supposedly dead, flying right next to her.
Without any aircraft, just floating in midair!
"You...you..."
Speechless, Hao Siqi stared at him, looking as if she'd seen a ghost.
What was this guy—a human or a ghost?!
"Miss Hao Siqi, are you wondering why I'm still alive?"
"I told you, our powers are on different levels. That little explosion couldn't kill me."
"But you really are ruthless. Even though those people in the bar weren't good, life is still life, and you didn't hesitate to drag them into your mess and kill them."
"Though I'm not exactly a righteous martial artist, I feel I should give you a little punishment."
As Yuujin continued, a sense of dread crept up inside Hao Siqi.
But before she could say anything, Yuujin gathered energy into a blade and, with a few swift strikes, sliced Hao Siqi's plane into pieces.
"Ahhhhh..."
Plummeting along with the stripped-down cockpit, Hao Siqi screamed in terror.
One explosion after another, the plane wreckage crashed to the ground below.
Hovering in midair, Yuujin clicked his tongue.
Perhaps he'd overdone it. That woman might be dead now, right?
That wouldn't do—she'd stolen so many of his things; if she was going to die, she could at least pay him back first.
With that thought, Yuujin flew toward where Hao Siqi had fallen...
