138: 138.
Butt hurts 138: 138.
Butt hurts Qingyi Street was very close to the Prefectural Magistrate, just 1 kilometer in a straight line.
Lu Li took a ride to the location and patiently waited by the roadside.
At the same time, Xiao Cha and Chen Zhizhong had arrived early at the “Council Hall.”
The place was noisy and packed with people.
Officers from the Patrol Bureau, the Transportation Bureau, and the National Martial Arts Association, as well as the Military Guard, representatives from every government office connected to public order were there, mingling and networking.
As expected, Xiao Cha once again received the star treatment.
Everyone was particularly interested in her marital prospects, which really annoyed the young lady.
Fortunately, several high-ranking officials arrived one after the other, so everyone quickly got to their feet and dared not chat any further.
Xiao Cha watched the chairman’s desk nervously.
She saw Judge Zhang took the seat on the immediate right, while Xia Weiyun and Jiang Haiyan were seated second and third, respectively.
Fan Shouyi was the last to arrive, walking at a leisurely pace towards the “Exploding Chair.”
Xiao Cha slipped her hand into her pocket and clenched the remote control.
She simultaneously bowed her head, using her peripheral vision to keep an eye on her target’s movements, ready to detonate at any moment.
Just as Fan Shouyi was about to sit down, Judge Zhang suddenly stood up to greet him, and the two had a polite chat with customary salutations.
“Mr.
Fan, I just can’t manage to open my Foot Yangming Meridian, what seems to be the problem?”
“And another thing, my Hand Taiyin Lung Meridian also feels somewhat obstructed…”
Judge Zhang asked two questions in a row, and Xia Weiyun by his side displayed a look of disdain.
[This man really is as the rumors say, always looking for a freebie, wanting to scrounge the Internal Vision of a Refining God Expert.]
Jiang Haiyan also noticed this and showed a hint of impatience on her face:
“Let’s start the meeting.
If Judge Zhang has any questions, he can talk to Mr.
Fan after the meeting.”
“Miss Jiang is right, let’s begin the meeting.”
Judge Zhang’s face showed respect, but internally he sneered:
[How could those born with a silver spoon understand our hardships?
Isn’t it tough to get a chance to meet with a Refining God Expert?]
However, at that moment, Fan Shouyi took the initiative to say, “It’s rare for Judge Zhang to take an interest.
I’ll pay him a visit after the meeting.”
For a Refining God Embryo Breathing Cultivator to lower himself in this way was unusual.
Judge Zhang’s face showed a playful expression, and with implied meaning, he said, “Then I will eagerly await your esteemed visit.”
Fan Shouyi also gazed deeply at him, both men adopting a posture suggesting that everything was understood without saying a word.
Xia Weiyun’s expression turned cold: [They’re planning to discuss the promotion of Ice Soul Powder!]
[Judge Zhang is famously greedy.
With Fan Shouyi approaching him directly, it seems he’s desperate.]
~~~~~~~~~~~~
A group of high-ranking officials at the stage clinked their glasses without sitting down, making Xiao Cha extremely anxious.
Chen Zhizhong stood by with a serious face, his mind filled with trepidation:
[What exactly is this girl planning to do?]
Yesterday, he had merely answered all of Xiao Cha’s questions but hadn’t inquired about her specific plan, as the less one knew about such matters, the better.
Just as one was anxious and the other uneasy, the big shots on the stage finally finished their discussion.
Fan Shouyi returned to his place, casually flung his official robe, and was about to sit on the “Exploding Chair,” a gesture full of grace, but he was still pondering:
[Zhang He is in charge of criminal and civil matters, which makes him a very suitable candidate.
But this greedy old dog will likely ask for the moon…]
Meanwhile, Xia Weiyun was also watching coldly, his gaze sharp as a knife.
Fan Shouyi smiled back thinly, his face showing a trace of mockery, and as his buttocks touched the chair…
his body suddenly shuddered!
“Not good!
My Spiritual Sense is warning me!!!”
This so-called Spiritual Sense was essentially a premonition of danger.
A Refining God Cultivator has keen awareness and can easily detect dangers in their environment.
Beneath Fan Shouyi’s rear, a flame indeed shot out, confirming the accuracy of his premonition.
It was Xiao Cha who had detonated an “Anti-Tank Mine,” and it was right on time.
But Fan Shouyi was prepared, and with his “Blood Exchange” Martial Arts Cultivation, he was about to force himself to jump away, with a very high chance of preserving his life!
Fortunately, justice of heaven is clear, and karma never fails.
Fan Shouyi’s prior flirtation and eye-kill caused his energy to be divided, and he reacted 0.2 seconds slower.
It was this 0.2 seconds, that made the difference between life and death!
A dazzling column of flame burst forth from below, hitting Fan Shouyi right in the buttocks.
This was the targeted explosive flame of an “Anti-Tank Mine,” Xiao Cha, as the instigator, felt a great rush of excitement, but immediately after, her face paled!
It turns out that a layer of a “Hive Shield” composed of countless hexahedra instantly appeared on Fan Shouyi’s body!?
This sci-fi scene was a protective spell condensed by Fan Shouyi’s spirit, and also his last hope.
Unfortunately, the thing might suffice to block bullets, but when facing the targeted explosion capable of destroying tanks, it simply wasn’t enough.
The “Hive Shield” was effortlessly breached by the shock wave, dissipating into a fluorescence.
Fan Shouyi let out a pitiful scream, engulfed by the flame and shock wave.
In the midst of the intense explosion, the roof was blasted open, creating a large hole as rubble and debris rained down.
The crowd exclaimed and dodged, while the three high-ranking officials flashed away to a distance.
Xia Weiyun was first stunned, but then her face blossomed with joy:
“What a move!
Even the ‘Void Realm Six-colored Sky’ was easily pierced through!
Fan Shouyi must be finished.”
Jiang Haiyan roared hoarsely, “Where is Mr.
Fan?
Quickly, see if Mr.
Fan is alright!”
Her loud voice rolled out, suppressing the chaos.
Everyone searched around and soon found Fan Shouyi amongst the ruins.
He looked dazed, but there were no visible injuries.
Apart from being dirty, he seemed to be mostly unharmed?
Jiang Haiyan stepped forward briskly, anxiously saying, “Mr.
Fan, are you alright?”
Fan Shouyi weakly said, “My, my butt hurts…”
Jiang Haiyan looked at his buttocks and her expression changed dramatically—everything below Fan Shouyi’s navel was gone!
His internal organs were all exposed, merely hanging on by the formidable life force of the Marrow Cleansing Realm.
But with such injuries, even someone in the Innate Realm would die, it was only a matter of time.
Jiang Haiyan trembled all over and said with a quivering voice, “The thief!
What audacity!
To brazenly assassinate a court official!”
During the holiday season, Lu Li had given her a huge gift; seems like this New Year was not going to be a good one.
At this moment, Fan Shouyi was still faintly crying out about his hurting buttocks.
Thinking of his demeanor, Xia Weiyun couldn’t help but tease, “Mr.
Fan, you’ve got no buttocks left, so it shouldn’t hurt anymore~”
These words jolted Fan Shouyi from his daze, his eyes snapped wide open and shone with brilliant starlight!
The next moment, a shrill whistle was heard as the “Peach Wood Sword” shot out from his waist, aimed straight at Xia Weiyun!
“It wasn’t me who did it, don’t lash out at me in your death throes!”
Xia Weiyun dodged to the side, narrowly avoiding the Peach Wood Sword as it grazed her arm.
It seemed harmless, but half a second later, her arm suddenly burst open, gushing blood from a sizable gash!
And the Peach Wood Sword, as agile as a bird, turned sharply and exploded with a circle of sonic booms, slashing towards her relentlessly!
Xia Weiyun, not daring to block directly, hastily dodged again but failed to completely evade, slicing open a gaping, bloody wound on her waist.
The body of a Blood Swapping Warrior, immune to rifle bullets, was as fragile as a potato!
Others, fearing accidental injury, stayed far away and dared not approach.
With the speed of sound, agility, sharpness, and a certain level of intelligence, this Flying Sword was terrifying!
Xiao Cha secretly rejoiced, thankful she hadn’t directly confronted it.
After all, it was just a fleeting moment of resurgence; after making 3 strikes, the Peach Wood Sword lost its momentum and visibly began to falter.
Fan Shouyi barely managed to form a hand seal, causing the Peach Wood Sword to fly back in reverse, stirring through his own forehead as it impaled him.
He decisively ended his own life, utterly destroying both body and soul!
Witnessing this, Judge Zhang wore a look of regret: “The Divine Soul of the Fetal Breath Realm, such a waste.”
