"Not good!"

Red River suddenly leaped to the side.

At the same time, a sword light emerged from the shadows, like a bolt of lightning, slashing towards the Red River, who was hastily dodging.

Seeing the figure within the lightning bolt, Red River's eyes widened in fury. "Bai Zhenzhen!"

"That crazy woman! Instead of running away... she ambushed me?!"

Once she decided to take action, Bai Zhenzhen had no intention of letting go of any advantage.

"If the other party knows we want to buy Heavenly Spiritual Root, they will keep an eye on the delivery. This means that wherever the delivery address is, that's where the battle will be."

"In other words, I get to choose the battlefield, and I can lay in ambush in advance."

Bai Zhenzhen, who had been lying in ambush outside the factory for a long time, decided to make Chihe her first target after discovering Red River appearance.

"Wang Yin's lackey, he must be the one leading the team to arrest people this time."

"Kill him first; it'll throw them into chaos."

Using the Frost Soul Ice Heart Art, one can enhance their physical vitality in this desperate situation, making their muscles and nerves react faster.

With the aid of his True Spirit Root, he gathered the full power of his body and unleashed his strongest attack.

Using the electric field pre-arranged by the Thunder Walk Nine Heavens Step, it accelerates its own speed.

With Thunder God Thunderbolt Art Qi Explosion Thunder Magical Power unleashed this swift sword strike...

Since the Foundation Establishment Exam, Bai Zhenzhen's raw strength hasn't improved much, but the practice and deduction of her Cultivation Method and the repeated contemplation of her swordsmanship have given her a deeper and deeper understanding of her own Martial Dao and the sword strike that transcended sound during the Foundation Establishment exam.

At this moment, he suddenly erupted and unleashed a terrifying sword strike, piercing through the Red River's chest in an instant and creating a large hole.

Boom!

Like a thunderous strike from the Heavenly Sword, it instantly drew the attention of all the other experts.

Facing the shocked, astonished, angry, and fearful gazes of the crowd, Bai Zhenzhen roared, "The Patrol Team is on a mission; who would dare to seek death? Just like this man!"

With a kick, Bai Zhenzhen sent the half-dead Red River flying, and continued, "Let me remind you, it's not illegal for me to kill you now. If you dare to lay a hand on me, you'd better watch out and go bankrupt."

As soon as she finished speaking, Bai Zhenzhen activated all the remaining electric fields of the Thunder Walk Nine Heavens Step and retreated rapidly backward.

At the same time, accompanied by the Breath Circulation within her body, her True Spirit Root began to frantically absorb Spiritual Energy, continuously restoring her magical power.

After nine months of cultivation, Bai Zhenzhen was able to retain a trace of her magical power after unleashing the Thunder God Thunderbolt Art once again. Coupled with the Spiritual Energy Breath Circulation of her True Spirit Root, this prevented her from completely exhausting her magical power.

Especially with the help of her True Spirit Root, every extra moment of Breath Circulation exercises allowed her to recover more mana for combat.

After Bai Zhenzhen killed someone with her sword and shouted loudly, the other Qi Refining experts present seemed to be stunned and watched helplessly as Bai Zhenzhen retreated violently.

Just then, a surge of Divine Power descended from the sky and flowed into the Red River's body.

Red River's body, which was originally on the verge of death, began to recover at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Someone exclaimed in surprise, "It's Surgery Talisman from the Ministry of Health of Health!"

At the same time, everyone's cell phones rang simultaneously, and then they all answered automatically, with Wang Yin's voice coming through.

"I will cast the Talisman Arts remotely, so you don't need to worry about dying."

"As for going bankrupt... no matter how much you lose in this next battle, I'll pay double."

"As for the rewards afterward, I never let my subordinates down."

Upon hearing Wang Yin's words, everyone immediately became excited.

After all, they remembered President Wang's generosity and magnanimity, and after a few words from him, they were all immediately filled with fighting spirit.

Ye Mantian led the way, chasing after Bai Zhenzhen.

"Grab her!"

Bai Zhenzhen's heart sank as she watched this scene.

Especially seeing Red River, whom she had painstakingly seized an opportunity to severely injure, now almost fully recovered, she couldn't help but curse inwardly, "Damn rich people."

"This is going to be tough."

However, she was secretly relieved that she had the identity of Patrol Team member as a cover, and Deng Bingding had also said that the two sides' Orthodox God would not directly intervene.

Otherwise, the other party would probably have used their Talisman Arts directly on her.

"Snort."

Seeing the crowd chasing after her like mad dogs unleashed from their cages, Bai Zhenzhen turned and sped away in a streak of lightning.

"Then let's go."

"Let's see how many times I can kill you!"

Just as many of the experts from the Oasis Group were captivated by Bai Zhenzhen.

Zhang Yu slowly walked out of a shopping mall.

Looking at the box in his arms, he let out a soft breath.

Inside this box... is the Heavenly Spiritual Root he just bought in the shopping mall.

As for the package used to lure the opponent, it was just a decoy of cash on delivery, used to attract their attention.

Having reached the depths of the pre-prepared sewer, Zhang Yu opened the box, knowing that he could not move again until he completed his Foundation Establishment.

He thought to himself, "A-Zhen, hang in there."

"I'll come find you once I've completed my Foundation Establishment."

Zhang Yu swallowed the Heavenly Spiritual Root into his body in one gulp, beginning the process of fusing the Spirit Root with his physical body and attempting to break through to the Foundation Establishment.

... with a whooshing sound as it cut through the air.

More than a dozen figures chased each other through the alley, occasionally colliding with each other.

As the battlefield that Bai Zhenzhen specifically chose, this abandoned factory area has a complex terrain with many alleys, underground passages, and Unfinished Building.

During the pursuit of Bai Zhenzhen, the dozen or so pursuers varied in speed, some moving fast and others slow, and the complex terrain quickly caused them to drift apart.

At this moment, Ye Mantian, who was moving the fastest and chasing the most closely, was only a dozen meters away from Bai Zhenzhen.

The furthest pursuer was left more than a hundred meters behind.

So when Bai Zhenzhen suddenly stopped, turned around, and drew her sword, the only opponent she faced at that moment was Ye Mantian, who was closest to her.

Ye Mantian instantly understood... At this moment, although Bai Zhenzhen was still being chased by more than a dozen experts, the only one who could help Ye Mantian was himself.

Boom!

With a roar, Ye Mantian's muscles suddenly swelled, and his fists pounded out with all his might like battering rams.

"Stay!"

He believed that as long as he could hold Bai Zhenzhen off for a few breaths, his teammates would catch up soon.

The latest novels are first published on 69shuba!

With his strength, even if he can't defeat his opponent, surely he can hold out for a few breaths?

However, to Ye Mantian's astonishment, Bai Zhenzhen neither parried nor dodged, but instead raised her head and charged straight at his iron palms.

Ye Mantian knew that Bai Zhenzhen was definitely not a master of external martial arts, nor had she practiced any Iron Head Skill. This palm strike might just crack her head open.

"Not good!"

Ye Mantian clearly remembered that Wang Yin and Red River He had repeatedly instructed him never to kill Bai Zhenzhen.

Wang Yin: "Even if you yourselves are seriously injured, you absolutely cannot kill Bai Zhenzhen!"

"Whether a person is dead or alive, chilled or frozen, the price difference is enormous!"

Ye Mantian roared wildly, then abruptly withdrew his palm and withdrew his force.

Having just unleashed his full power, he now had to suddenly withdraw it, feeling as if he were fighting against himself. Not only did his muscles feel like they were about to twist, but his internal magical energy was also in constant conflict.

But Bai Zhenzhen seemed to have anticipated this, her fingertips flashing with lightning-like sword light as she leaped over Ye Mantian's stiff body.

With a loud bang, Ye Mantian's body flashed with bloody light, his hands, feet, eyes, dantian... all of them were swept by the sword light.

Then Ye Mantian collapsed to the ground with a thud, only able to watch Bai Zhenzhen's departing figure.

Ye Mantian thought to himself, "This woman... she's really crazy. Isn't she worried that I didn't stop just now? She's practically gambling with her life."

Bai Zhenzhen glanced at the power of the Surgery Talisman falling on Ye Mantian, watching as he began to be healed, and thought to herself, "As expected... since there is such a remote healing method, not killing him is actually the best outcome."

"Although I was just confident that I could kill this man."

"But once the killing begins, under the threat of death... even with Wang Yin's restraint, the opponent might not continue to hold back against me at the crucial moment."

Seeing the Red River circle around and head towards her, Bai Zhenzhen checked the state of her Movement Method and flashed to the other side.

Thus, relying on the complex terrain, they fought and retreated, occasionally leaving behind electric fields that suddenly accelerated them, sometimes deliberately forcing their way out of the encirclement, and sometimes gathering their sword techniques to unleash the 15th sword of the Ten Thousand Swords Without End Art, breaking the sound barrier...

Bai Zhenzhen charged left and right, stalling for more than 40 minutes.

But the crowd tightened their encirclement, leaving her less and less room to maneuver.

Just as they were about to capture Bai Zhenzhen, she slashed open a manhole cover with her sword and leaped into it.

"My physical strength, magical power, and room to maneuver are all nearing their limits," Bai Zhenzhen thought to himself. "Following the escape route we prepared beforehand... let's retreat for a while."

Just as Red River, Ye Mantian, and the others were watching with anger, a figure suddenly darted out of the sewer.

The visitor was Zhou Yang from the Zhou Family.

Having disguised his appearance, he even concealed his title as the Purple-Gold Merit Lord. With a low shout, boundless cold air enveloped Bai Zhenzhen.

Feeling an astonishing chill that seemed to freeze her blood, Bai Zhenzhen looked at the other person in disbelief. "Who is this guy? When did he get here?"

Zhou Yang had already begun taking action when he realized that the Oasis Group was searching for Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen.

On the one hand, he wanted to see if he could take this opportunity to catch the two of them.

On the other hand, with the Zhou Family in decline, he wanted to take the opportunity to curry favor with Wang Yin and find a way out for himself.

So he had been gathering intelligence and tracking Red River and the others' movements. After discovering that a conflict had broken out between the two sides, he quietly looked for an opportunity... and finally, this moment arrived.

With the full force of the Frost Heaven Freezing Qi Field, Zhou Yang unleashed a powerful palm strike.

With a deafening roar, Bai Zhenzhen hastily caught the blow with her palm, her body temperature plummeting rapidly, and frost instantly forming on her arms and face.

Bai Zhenzhen slammed into the wall with a thud, vomiting a mouthful of icy blood that emitted a chilling aura.

Just as she was about to retreat, Zhou Yang's hand gently pressed on her shoulder.

As waves of cold air surged into her body, Bai Zhenzhen was completely suppressed on the spot by Zhou Yang.

Red River and the others had already surrounded them. They glanced at Zhou Yang, who was in disguise, and Bai Zhenzhen, who was being suppressed by Zhou Yang, and frowned, saying, "Who are you?"

Zhou Yang nodded slightly and said politely, "Just a nobody who wants to serve President Wang."

Red River sneered, "Hand Bai Zhenzhen over to us."

"I'll take you to see President Wang in a little while."

Zhou Yang was overjoyed and was about to hand Bai Zhenzhen over to the other party when a thick white fog suddenly rose up around them.

The original factories, alleys, and buildings were instantly swallowed up by the white fog, as if the entire factory area had been pulled into another world by the fog.

At the same time, Zhang Yu's icy voice slowly drifted through the thick fog.

"Clown, let go of your paws."
