"Won!"

Seeing all these enemies slaughtered, Xia Ping finally let out a long breath. His boiling blood slowly cooled down, and his heart, which had been pounding violently, finally began to settle.

He felt as if he were in a dream. Only a short while ago, he had been nothing more than an ordinary student at the Martial Apprentice Third Heaven, barely capable of getting into a third-rate university. His best-case scenario would have been to follow in his father's footsteps, become a city administrator, and live a peaceful, unremarkable life.

But now, he had advanced to the Martial Apprentice Fifth Heaven, and he had personally killed these vicious underworld figures—even a powerhouse at the Martial Apprentice Sixth Heaven—by punching them to death.

It could be said that Xia Ping's strength had undergone a leap in progress!

"Hm? Isn't this a recovery potion?" Xia Ping stepped forward to search the young man in white, confirming that this person's identity was far from ordinary.

With just a casual glance, he immediately found four or five bottles of recovery potion. This type of potion allowed a Martial Apprentice Sixth Heaven powerhouse to replenish their physical stamina and restore depleted true qi.

A single bottle of such a recovery potion was worth one hundred thousand; if you weren't a tycoon, you simply couldn't afford to use it!

He guessed that this kid had prepared these potions for a rainy day, but unfortunately, he hadn't even had the chance to use them before being slaughtered by Xia Ping.

"There seems to be a secret manual as well."

Xia Ping also noticed that this kid was carrying a martial arts manual, seemingly titled Universe Three Talents Saber Technique. It was likely the saber skill he had practiced himself, and its power was not to be underestimated.

If he were to take this manual out to sell, it would likely be worth at least a million Federal Coin.

"Go, check that warehouse over there. I think I heard screams coming from that direction."

"No way, could there be enemies over there?"

"Go take a look. It's very likely that the culprit has appeared. We can't let any disturbance go unchecked."

Suddenly, whistling sounds came from the distance. The commotion here had been too great, drawing the attention of the Black Bear Company patrol teams nearby, and a group of people rushed over rapidly.

"No, I have to go. I can't stay in this place for long. If I get surrounded, I'm dead." Xia Ping immediately packed up the items and fled quickly.

Just a few minutes after Xia Ping left, a group of men in black arrived at the perimeter of the warehouse. They quickly discovered the seven or eight corpses of the burly men in black lying on the ground.

"Damn it, these aren't Black Bear Company security guards? I saw them at the company earlier. How are they all dead? Who on earth killed them?" One of the men in black turned pale with shock.

The other men in black were equally stunned. They knew these security guards all possessed the cultivation of the Martial Apprentice Fourth Heaven, with some even reaching the Fifth Heaven. Yet, they were all dead now; one could only imagine how powerful the enemy was.

"Look, there's a dead man over there too." Another man in black noticed a young man in white lying not far away, motionless.

Whoosh. A middle-aged man immediately rushed over. Upon seeing the face of the young man in white, his expression changed drastically, and his lips trembled: "Damn it, this is Supervisor Zheng's son, Zheng Hua."

"No way, it's actually Supervisor Zheng's son?!"

"I heard that last night, Supervisor Zheng ordered his son to hunt down that culprit. And now he's dead?!"

"It must have been that culprit. They must have clashed, and Zheng Hua ended up killed."

"Zheng Hua was Supervisor Zheng's only son. Now that he's dead, won't Supervisor Zheng go insane?"

"This is a huge deal. Report it immediately."

The group of men in black wore grave expressions. They knew that Zheng Hua was a renowned genius who had reached the Martial Apprentice Sixth Heaven at a young age. He had a limitless future and had always been the pride of Supervisor Zheng.

But now, this genius was dead, his heart exploded by a single punch. This was catastrophic! Once Supervisor Zheng found out, there was no telling what terrifying fury would erupt.

Beep, beep, beep.

Without delay, the middle-aged man in black took out his communicator to report the incident to the Black Bear Company. Regardless of the consequences, this matter could not be hidden and had to be reported immediately.

A few minutes later, on the top floor of a skyscraper, Supervisor Zheng Cheng of the Black Bear Company received the news. His vision went black, and he let out a long, heaven-shaking roar, filled with extreme grief and indignation.

"Ahhh!!! To dare kill my son! No matter who you are, no matter where you are hiding, and no matter how great your background is, I, Zheng Cheng, will definitely kill you and tear you into ten thousand pieces!"

Zheng Cheng let out a terrifying roar, his shockwaves rolling out. His mournful cry was heard within a ten-kilometer radius of the building, and the concrete floor of the rooftop cracked under the vibration of his sonic waves.

Some of the Black Bear Company security guards near the rooftop retreated in terror, not daring to get close for fear of being injured by the aftermath, which would be a disaster.

"Supervisor!"

Song Hui, standing nearby, looked at Zheng Cheng with concern. The thing he feared most had finally happened.

"Zheng Hua was my son, my only son!"

Zheng Cheng roared, "I raised him with such painstaking effort. Eighteen years, a full eighteen years! I don't know how much money and resources I wasted, all just to ensure he would become a success."

"I, Zheng Cheng, am useless. Even now, I am just a piece of trash at the Martial Apprentice Ninth Heaven; my achievements for this life are capped. That is why my only hope in this life was my son!"

"But now he is dead, killed by a traitor! Eighteen years of heart's blood have gone down the drain. You tell me, can I swallow this? You tell me, can I endure this?!"

He was furious to the extreme.

"You cannot endure it."

Song Hui said in a deep voice.

"Right, absolutely not!"

Zheng Cheng clenched his fists so hard he nearly drew blood. "Pass on my order: have everyone in the Black Bear Company mobilize. Seal off a hundred-mile radius and lock down the stations as well. I want to make sure that brat cannot escape even with wings!"

"He wants to run? I'll seal off the entire region and see where he can possibly go!"

"He killed my son and thinks he can just get away with it? I tell him, there's no way!"

"Once I catch that bastard, I will tear him into ten thousand pieces. Even his friends, relatives, and parents—I will capture them all and wipe out his entire clan!"

He gritted his teeth, his anger bordering on madness. He had originally wanted his son to hunt down the culprit just for the experience, but now that the experience hadn't been gained and his son had lost his life instead, how could he possibly be reconciled?!

He would not rest until he caught that brat and tortured him until he was no longer in human shape.

"Yes, Supervisor." Song Hui immediately went down to relay the order.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

With a single command, the members of Black Bear Company scattered around Black Moon City immediately sprang into action, appearing in every street and alley of the district. Even the stations were filled with their men, checking every passenger who entered, all with the goal of ensuring the culprit had absolutely no chance of escape.

It had to be said that the influence of Black Bear Company in this area was truly immense; once it began to operate, it could simply crush everything, leaving one with nowhere to hide.
