Chapter Thirty-Four

"What's going on?" Ah Wai finally remembered why he was here and asked with a frown.

"I was ambushed when I came out of the mall. I killed six people. Oh, right, I can't keep the murder weapon, so destroy this knife too."

Remembering the near-death experience, Wang Xuan felt a lingering fear. He had been on the brink of death. Whether it was the knife in his shoe sole or the cleaver stuck in the corpse's shoulder, if he had reacted a moment slower, he would have died without a burial place.

He was lucky he struck first and killed three of them suddenly, otherwise, he would have been dead too!

This matter must be investigated thoroughly!

His enemies were only the Hong Yi Society and the police. This must have been the Hong Yi Society's doing! "Arrange for someone to investigate. It should be the Hong Yi Society. Viper or their Yan Tze Tak. Keep an eye on their movements!"

Speaking of this, Wang Xuan's expression immediately turned grim.

Investigating was easy, but revenge would be difficult. It wasn't something that could be accomplished overnight.

If it really was Viper, he would be hiding very carefully during this period, like an old turtle, never poking his head out of his lair.

But to let him suffer such a loss was absolutely impossible!

Ah Wai took the mission and left. Wang Xuan, however, saw that the door Shen Leman was hiding behind was slightly ajar. He instinctively turned his head and ducked into the bathroom.

A burst of giggles came from behind him.

The shower turned on, and warm water cascaded down his body, mixing with the blood and flowing down. The floor was instantly dyed red, pooling on the ground before flowing out through the drain.

As the water washed over him, Wang Xuan became clean again, inside and out.

At least, that's what he thought.

Steam rose in the bathroom, blurring his reflection in the mirror.

Looking at his hazy reflection, scenes of the recent fights flashed through Wang Xuan's mind. He found himself incredibly strange in those moments, not because he had transformed or become stronger, nor because he had learned some peerless martial art.

It was just that he felt like he could unleash 100% of his abilities, without wasting a single ounce of strength.

It was like how a person needs rigorous and extensive training to relax their entire body while running.

In slow motion, you'd see the runner's cheeks vibrating during a 100-meter sprint. That's the entire body relaxed, with only the legs exerting force.

An untrained person, however, would grit their teeth and their veins would bulge on their face during a 100-meter sprint, as if that would make them run faster!

During the fights, Wang Xuan had entered a strange state. His mind was focused solely on killing the enemy and protecting himself, devoid of any other negative emotions. His body moved entirely on instinct, dodging, blocking, and attacking the opponent with the fastest speed, using just the right amount of force for the desired effect.

His reaction speed far exceeded that of a normal person.

The fear, trembling, and weakness that normally paralyze a person in a life-or-death crisis never occurred in him.

He had no idea why this was happening.

He had no prior experience in this area in his previous 20-plus years. He had to thank China's excellent public security!

Forget it. If he couldn't figure it out, he wouldn't think about it. It wasn't a bad thing anyway.

However... Wang Xuan looked around the bathroom. I think I forgot to bring my change of clothes in here!

There was no other way. He could only dry himself off and hastily wrap a bath towel around himself before walking out of the bathroom. He had considered asking Shen Leman to bring him clothes, but... he decided against it.

He pushed the door open and walked out of the bathroom, finding Shen Leman leaning on the sofa, gently swirling a glass of red wine.

Seeing Wang Xuan emerge from the bathroom, Shen Leman stood up slightly. Her eyes widened slightly as she looked at his well-built physique. She walked towards him with a cat-like gait. Perhaps due to the wine, her eyes were a little hazy.

Wang Xuan let out a heavy sigh.

Heh, women!

You're provoking me again!

Wang Xuan's eyes widened slightly, turning green. He snatched the wine glass from Shen Leman's hand and downed it in one gulp.

He casually tossed the glass onto the sofa, his gaze becoming even more dangerous. He bent down and scooped Shen Leman into a bridal carry, causing her to yelp. Her arms immediately wrapped around his neck, and her slightly wine-scented lips gently bit him.

"What are you doing?" Shen Leman closed her eyes, not feeling Wang Xuan pounce on her as she expected. She curiously opened her eyes to look.

"I want to make the whole world quiet. Nothing and no one will be able to stop me!"

This statement made Shen Leman laugh again, reminding her of the clumsy Ah Wai from earlier.

Amidst her laughter, Wang Xuan suppressed his restless emotions and held Shen Leman tightly.

Perhaps it was the ambush incident today that filled Shen Leman with fear. At this moment, she had lost all her usual reserve.
