After uttering a brief sentence, the stunningly beautiful and arrogant boss Qian Shanxue had already hung up the phone. Such an action made Shen Qiang frown. He opened the coordinates sent by her phone, which showed on the map that the place was already outside the urban area.
The distance from Shen Qiang's current location was a good sixty-plus kilometers.
This instinctively made Shen Qiang somewhat reluctant to move.
But it was only for a moment, as he quickly got up and went downstairs.
Although Shen Qiang still found Qian Shanxue's personality somewhat elusive, one point he couldn't deny was that if there wasn't a real need for him, Qian Shanxue would definitely not have called him.
There were two reasons for this.
First, Shen Qiang's cultivation was low, and he wouldn't be much help in battle.
Second, she was a powerhouse in the Mixed Element Realm, completely overwhelming lower realm cultivators in combat, without needing any help.
Therefore, her making this call signified that the situation for this emergency mission could be very urgent, necessitating on-site medical assistance.
When he reached the ground floor, he got into his sports car.
Shen Qiang raced to the coordinates.
But not long after he left the urban area, when he turned onto a rural road according to the coordinates, a loud clang sounded, and the uneven road surface caused the car to bottom out severely.
Getting out of the car, Shen Qiang adjusted his breathing and ran all the way.
He frowned as he ran.
"Sports cars are nice, but they can't handle complex traffic situations. It seems necessary to get a few motorbikes," he thought to himself.
As he thought, Shen Qiang kept running, but his speed was clearly much slower than driving, and because he was anxious, his stamina was drained greatly.
By the time he arrived at the coordinates...
Shen Qiang was astonished to find that the location was a deserted hollow in the mountains.
Everything around was pitch-black.
The only sounds were the wind blowing over the treetops and the rustling of the weeds.
Shen Qiang stood in the hollow and had just taken out his phone when a figure moved beside him.
"Set your phone to combat mode,"
It was Ali's voice.
Shen Qiang turned his head and saw the petite girl Ali who had appeared beside him.
He promptly set his phone to combat mode as she had suggested and then frowned, "Where's the injured person who needs help?"
Ali's voice was impatient and cold, "Rookie, shut up and keep quiet. As a newbie, you have no right to ask any questions right now."
Upon hearing this, Shen Qiang could hardly resist slapping her across the face.
Crazy!
Qian Shanxue was, and she was too.
Summoning Shen Qiang to this godforsaken place for an emergency mission without any explanation was one thing, but also forbidding questions?
While he was frowning...
The petite girl Ali suddenly spoke with some anger in her voice, "You're late, the colleague who needed medical aid is already dead."
Shen Qiang was stunned, "Where is he? Are you sure there's no saving him?"
"He's well and truly dead, the body is in the Colonel's Storage Ring. If you want to see, you can look all you want when we get back."
Hearing this, Shen Qiang's brow furrowed tightly, and although he sighed internally, at the same time, it confirmed his thoughts.
Indeed, whether in the eyes of Ali or the stunningly beautiful boss Qian Shanxue, the existence of Shen Qiang was merely that of a Medical Soldier.
This situation was clearly because during their mission, they had no plans to involve Shen Qiang until somebody got injured and needed medical attention. By then, recalling Shen Qiang who was over sixty kilometers away meant that by the time he arrived, it was already too late.
This made them seem foolish.
But actually, it's not hard to understand.
After all, Shen Qiang's cultivation was only at the early stages of Qi Condensation.
In their eyes, perhaps he was just someone who needed looking after, a burden.
"If there's a fight later, stay away from within a hundred meters of the Colonel, even if she's surrounded, you don't need to step forward," Ali instructed, then whispered, "It's about time."
Her voice had just faded.
Even though it was still summer, a bone-chilling, wintry gust burst forth from approximately three hundred meters directly ahead.
In an instant, Shen Qiang shivered from the cold and, more alarmingly, noticed a layer of frost had formed on several grass leaves nearby.
Crackling!
In the clear sound of ice breaking, a burly figure soared into the air.
"I was wondering who had the audacity to trouble me, turns out it's you, pretty lady with a bounty of over three hundred million!"
Boom!
Amidst the muffled sound, the laughing burly figure was kicked away by the gracefully built Qian Shanxue.
After being sent flying for dozens of meters, the burly figure stabilized himself in mid-air.
"The Colonel is so powerful!" Ali exclaimed excitedly, "To kick away a B+ ranked fugitive of the Mixed Element Realm so cleanly and effortlessly, that's just so cool."
Looking at Qian Shanxue standing tall in the air,
her figure graceful and her long hair flowing, Shen Qiang frowned slightly.
In terms of cultivation, in terms of the ability to take hits head-on, Shen Qiang was nothing but chaff in front of a Mixed Element realm powerhouse, at best just a speck of dust that could be blown away with a wave of the hand.
But let's not forget.
Shen Qiang was a doctor who had received the Medical Saint Inheritance.
With just one look, Shen Qiang had already discerned that the exchange between the two was nothing more than a probing move.
Qian Shanxue was faster than her opponent, but her strikes clearly were not powerful enough to hurt the burly man.
So assuming that Qian Shanxue already had the victory in the bag was a bit too optimistic.
And almost at the moment Shen Qiang made that assessment,
the burly man laughed menacingly, "With these flashy moves, you think you can hurt me? When I killed that guy before, I should have guessed it was you all along. According to Dragon Group's usual pattern, if you're here, then your accomplices must be nearby, right?"
"Then I should kill them first. Give me... death!"
As the man in the air bellowed the word "death,"
a primal fear erupted instantaneously from the depths of Shen Qiang's heart.
Using the Observation Skill in a flash, Shen Qiang had even seen an energy fluctuation burst forth from the burly man's mouth.
"This is bad!"
The moment Shen Qiang realized the burly man intended to kill with sonic vibrations, he quickly opened his mouth wide and then covered Ali's ears with his hands, shouting, "Open your mouth if you don't want your eardrums shattered!"
But almost at the same moment Shen Qiang's hands reached Ali's ears,
Crack!
A huge floating ball of ice and frost in the air shattered with a crisp breaking sound.
"Oh, so you made preparations in advance? Truly a formidable opponent, huh? Goodbye!" Before his words even finished, the burly man's figure flashed and disappeared from sight.
Boom!
About five hundred meters away, a loud boom sounded.
Qian Shanxue, holding a silver spear, stood proudly in the air and declared, "No one can escape the criminal I intend to capture."
The burly man seemed to be injured; he spat out a mouthful and then sneered coldly, "Qian Shanxue, don't think you're the only one with companions. If you dare to come after me, my comrades will kill all of yours."
Whoosh!
The man's figure flashed and disappeared again.
Boom!
The source of the loud noise was now a kilometer away.
Shen Qiang faintly heard Qian Shanxue's voice saying, "Anyone who dares to touch my men will die, no exceptions. And you, you're no different."
