Boom, boom, boom!
Another series of palm thunderbolts shot from their palms, colliding with each other. Trees around were caught in the crossfire, their roots ripped from the ground by the shockwaves, and dust and stones obscured half the sky.
*Pfft!*
As Cheng Xiaofan extinguished the palm thunderbolts again, Huang Canrong spat out a stream of bright red blood.
*Thump!*
Huang Canrong collapsed onto the ground, unconscious.
"Er!"
Was this the legendary "碰瓷" (pèng cí - staging an accident to extort money)?
A master of the Xiantian realm in ancient martial arts cultivation, could he really be so easily defeated?
Cheng Xiaofan couldn't help but shake his head. He waved his hand towards Lei Zi in the distance and shouted, "Come here, hurry up!"
"What... what do you want?" Lei Zi stammered, his body trembling.
At this moment, Lei Zi finally understood Cheng Xiaofan completely. This kid was too formidable. Even his own master, a Xiantian realm expert, was no match for him.
When did this Cheng Xiaofan become so powerful?
If he had known this, he should never have continued to oppose him.
Cheng Xiaofan glared at him, "I told you to come, so come. Don't ask why."
"If you dawdle any longer, believe it or not, I'll throw a palm thunderbolt and bury you three meters underground!"
"I'm coming, I'm coming right now!"
The thought of being buried three meters underground made Lei Zi tremble, and he dared not waste any more words, scrambling over to Cheng Xiaofan.
Upon reaching Cheng Xiaofan, Lei Zi immediately knelt down stiffly.
Just then, HarriGann arrived with Freilangk and Teresa, also in front of Cheng Xiaofan.
"Mr. Cheng, thank you very much for saving our lives!" Teresa said, her eyes sparkling with adoration.
Cheng Xiaofan smiled slightly and replied, "It was nothing, a mere trifle!"
He then turned to HarriGann. "Mr. HarriGann, how did you encounter this group?"
HarriGann quickly explained, "Mr. Cheng, this morning, my friends and I arrived in Jinbao Town. I called you, but you hung up."
"I figured you were busy with something else, so I stopped the car to ask for directions to Zhuxi Village. Unexpectedly, I ran into these people."
He pointed at Lei Zi, who was kneeling on the ground. "He claimed to be your good friend and invited us into his van. To our surprise, he brought us here and intended to kill us all."
Cheng Xiaofan looked at Lei Zi and asked coldly, "Why did you bring them here to kill them?"
Lei Zi knew he had to tell the truth now.
He recounted the entire sequence of events.
To Lei Zi's surprise, Cheng Xiaofan's face broke into a wide smile after listening. "Lei Zi, you can call the police station in town now!"
"Okay, I'll call the police immediately!"
Lei Zi took out his phone with righteous indignation and dialed the emergency number. "Hello, I want to report a crime. A group of thugs, in an attempt to frame Cheng Xiaofan of Zhuxi Village, kidnapped three foreigners who came to Jinbao Town and brought them to Jiuligou with the intention of killing them."
"Now all the thugs have been apprehended. Please dispatch officers quickly. These criminals must be severely punished; not a single one should be let off."
After finishing the call, Lei Zi suddenly felt defeated.
Didn't the group of thugs he just described include himself?
Where did that righteous tone come from?
The police station, upon receiving the call, immediately reported to Dao Dahai.
Dao Dahai's head throbbed. How was this case related to Cheng Xiaofan again?
Last time, there was Sakai Kyoko, who almost lost her life at Xinyi Hotel.
Now, suddenly, three foreigners... No matter who it was, if someone died in Jinbao Town, his own official hat would be in jeopardy at any moment.
It was truly difficult to be in charge of the police station in Jinbao Town!
"Quick, emergency assembly, head to Jiuligou immediately!" Dao Dahai loudly ordered those around him.
Wuwuwu...
With sirens blaring, several police cars sped towards Jiuligou.
While Dao Dahai and his team were on their way to Jiuligou, Cheng Xiaofan had already found several tiger vines nearby and securely bound Huang Canrong, Lei Zi, and the few village ruffians together.
Huang Canrong had woken up.
Although he was an ancient martial arts cultivator, a Xiantian realm master at that, he was now no different from an ordinary person.
The moment Huang Canrong spat out that mouthful of blood, Cheng Xiaofan had already crippled his cultivation.
He would never be able to step onto the path of ancient martial arts cultivation again.
"Mr. HarriGann,"
After tying up the group, Cheng Xiaofan patted HarriGann's shoulder and said with a beaming smile, "The police will be here soon, and you will be safe."
"I have to head back now. The police will arrange for someone to take you to Zhuxi Village!"
Hearing this, HarriGann quickly said, "Mr. Cheng, thank you again for saving our lives. I'm very curious, how did you get here?"
Cheng Xiaofan chuckled and earnestly spoke nonsense. "Mr. HarriGann, you can only say that you were very lucky. I happened to be passing by on my Sky-Piercing Eagle and coincidentally encountered these thugs trying to kill you. I intervened and saved you!"
"Oh, and if you want to express gratitude, thank your God!"
HarriGann was suddenly enlightened. "Right, last time at the World Famous Wine Auction, everyone called you the Son of God!"
"It must have been God who sent you here to save us!"
"Sky-Piercing Eagle!"
At this moment, Cheng Xiaofan no longer wanted to banter seriously with HarriGann. He called out to the Sky-Piercing Eagle perched nearby.
The Sky-Piercing Eagle immediately let out a chirp and flew down from the treetop.
Before the Sky-Piercing Eagle could land, Cheng Xiaofan leaped into the air. Still sixteen or seventeen meters above the ground, he had already landed on the Eagle's back.
"Screech—"
The Sky-Piercing Eagle let out a long cry and soared into the sky.
"Oh God, I never thought I'd see the Son of God on Chinese soil!" Teresa immediately turned into a fan-girl, gazing at the sky with infatuated eyes, murmuring to herself.
Freilangk wore a look of astonishment. "It's too miraculous, this Mr. Cheng is truly miraculous!"
"If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would have thought those live broadcast videos were edited."
By the time Dao Dahai and his police officers arrived at Jiuligou, Cheng Xiaofan had already returned to the back mountain.
At this moment, he had boiled a pot of water and brewed a cup of Golden Tea from his spatial dimension. He took a deep sip, a look of enjoyment on his face.
"I never expected to gain a new ability, it's truly wondrous!" Cheng Xiaofan murmured.
This morning, after hanging up HarriGann's call, an inexplicable restlessness had settled in his heart, a feeling that something ominous was about to happen.
He couldn't predict what it would be.
However, at that very moment, a peculiar scroll unfolded before Cheng Xiaofan's eyes...
