Vol.1 - Chapter 23 – Super-sense

Wang Xuan disappeared from among the branches like an ape, changed his position, and crossed to the other side of the forest. At this moment, his eyes were full of killing intent, and he had the impulse to hunt in the night.

Someone was killing him recklessly in the city. Although he was usually calm, he felt like he was imprisoning a fierce dragon in his heart and couldn't help but want to let the dragon run wild and kill the gunmen hidden in the dark.

Wang Xuan had never had the intention to kill like he did today!

He was usually low-key and peaceful, but he was not cowardly. With others coming to kill him, how could he remain indifferent and not fight back?

"Sure enough, there are still people!"

Wang Xuan's perception was now super sensitive. After experiencing the gunfire just now, the bullets grazed his temple and flew past him. His internal spirit rose violently, his metabolism accelerated, and he was in a state of extraordinary condition.

The nearby vegetation became much clearer, and the chirping of night birds and the footsteps of pedestrians on the street were like being brought closer to his ears in an instant.

He stared at the fence on the other side of the old residential area, where a cold gun muzzle was pointed at the forest, which he discovered.

Wang Xuan's current state was very abnormal, with his vision, hearing, and sense of smell being incredibly sharp. In the field of old techniques, this was the triggering of the "super-self," an instinctive self-release used to deal with external crises.

If explained by modern medicine, this was an extreme "stress response," manifested as sympathetic nervous system excitement, increased secretion of pituitary and adrenal cortex hormones, and a rapid increase in cardiac blood supply volume, leading to a comprehensive enhancement of the whole person from physical to mental aspects, for self-defense.

The situation for those who practiced old techniques would naturally be more complicated. Wang Xuan's "super-sense" was extremely sensitive, and his vision and hearing were beyond the understanding of ordinary people.

For a brief moment, he kept changing his position in the forest, carefully capturing the movements outside the residential area. His mind gradually became calm, without killing anyone.

There were seven people outside quietly waiting for him to rush out of the forest and fight back.

If he mistakenly thought that there were only three people and confidently went out to hunt and kill, he would probably get into trouble.

Most importantly, he vaguely felt that there were still black gun muzzles pointing at this forest from further away.

Wang Xuan kept changing his position to avoid being locked on, but if he just guarded like this and did nothing, he felt a little unwilling.

In any case, he had to keep these people and delay them for a while, giving Qing Mu's people time.

He picked up a fist-sized stone from under the tree roots and weighed it in his hand.

Wang Xuan joked to himself that his weapon was too primitive, like the Stone Age against modern hot weapons, but he really had no other choice.

His only reliance was that his super-sense was getting stronger and stronger, his eyes were shining like two bright stars in the dark.

Although they were far apart, he clearly captured the positions of the gunmen, even the eyes under their headgear and the tattoos on their exposed arms.

He couldn't walk out of the forest, or the other side would immediately lock onto him. In the open space, there were no rows of thick tree trunks blocking the way, and the other side could use their equipment just as effectively as his super-sense, with strong killing power.But in the end, he waited for an opportunity. The gunmen outside the fence would never have thought that someone could clearly capture everything in the darkness.

Wang Xuan's physical and mental state merged at this moment, and his super senses became even more terrifying. In his eyes, the trajectory of that person's movements was all reflected in his mind.

He predicted that the person would make a movement to get up. After all, the other party was a little relaxed and did not take him, a practitioner of ancient arts, seriously.

Wang Xuan exerted all his strength and threw out a fist-sized rock. His strength was terrifying and his speed was difficult for ordinary people to comprehend.

Boom!

At the moment when the man slightly exposed his head, the rock flew and hit him squarely in the forehead. He didn't even make a groan, and fell backwards with a light thud, his forehead caved in and blood flowed out.

The nearby two people quickly turned their heads and looked over, completely unable to believe their eyes. Their companion's forehead caved in and blood flowed out.

They opened their mouths, completely unable to understand or accept this result.

It was like flying a plane to bomb ancient times, only to be stabbed by a spear, completely unreasonable!

They were all elite gunmen, professionals, who came to kill a practitioner of ancient arts, but were directly killed by a piece of rock.

They had been on so many missions, and had killed more than one ancient arts master, but such a thing had never happened before.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

At the moment when Wang Xuan changed his position, several bullets flew from the original location, some hitting the tree trunk, some hitting the grass, making a slight sound.

Wang Xuan entered deeper into the forest, hiding behind a thick tree trunk. A warning sign appeared in his heart. The people outside seemed to be angry and kept shooting into the forest.

Those people no longer waited and directly swept over.

Wang Xuan's movements were light, agile, and quickly arrived behind a large bluestone. This was a landscape stone, but people usually sat on it like a bench. Now it became the best cover.

Boom boom boom!

The stone chips flew, and some bullets hit here.

Wang Xuan's eyes were like knives, filled with anger. These people had no scruples, ignored the customary rules, and even came to the city to kill people. In the end, they even swept over directly.

What kind of confidence did they have to dare to do this? Afterward, what kind of person could settle all of this for them?

"Don't let me find out who you are. Otherwise, sooner or later, I will uproot you. I don't care if you are an organization or a financial consortium. We will settle the score in the future."

Wang Xuan regretted that he had not practiced the Golden Body Technique. Otherwise, he would have killed them directly, without the need to endure anymore.

Suddenly, it was quiet in the forest. He saw several figures carrying the person who had fallen to the ground and dispersing, their movements agile and very fast.

Wang Xuan immediately jumped up like a fox and came to the front of the power distribution room in the forest, finding a steel rod that was more than half a meter long. There was really nothing else that was more suitable.

He moved lightly in the forest, using his super senses to the extreme, and then swung his arm. It sounded like an explosion in the air.

One of the people who was retreating in the distance fell forward with a thud, lying on the ground. He opened his eyes and made a painful sound. There was a transparent hole in his chest, and his heart was torn apart.A steel rod pierced through and fell to the ground with a crisp metallic tremor more than twenty meters away.

The faces of the others changed. How powerful must that be? To throw a steel rod from such a distance, piercing through the alert hand of one of them, making the rest of them shiver.

"Quick, let's leave!" someone whispered. They lifted a fallen person from the ground and left quickly without stopping.

Some sprayed something on the bloodstains on the road, obviously professionals.

Although Wang Xuan was full of killing intent, he eventually did not pursue them. He changed his position in the forest and felt that the black gun barrels in the distance were still aiming at the forest. As long as he went out, he would be sniped.

He guessed that Qing Mu's people had arrived, and these gunmen were either terrifyingly well-informed or had someone specifically guarding from afar. Therefore, he retreated quickly.

Wang Xuan suppressed his impulse and did not pursue them. He stood in the forest and waited silently.

Soon, Qing Mu's people came. From the moment Wang Xuan contacted them to their arrival, their speed was astonishing, and their efficiency was extremely high.

However, those people were extremely vigilant and retreated beforehand.

"You go after them and investigate thoroughly. Be ruthless. Dare to kill in the city, and even come to the residential area to kill. I want to see who the culprit is!" Qing Mu personally came with a group of people and let them follow the clues.

He himself contacted Wang Xuan and entered the forest alone.

He brought a full set of top-notch equipment.

Wang Xuan immediately changed into a set of heavy clothes, with three layers of bulletproof vests and a specially made windbreaker with a certain defensive effect. In addition, there was a peaked cap that looked no different from a normal hat but was very heavy.

Wang Xuan usually didn't like this kind of outfit, but now he was fully armed with the windbreaker and peaked cap, and then he picked up a gun and was about to go outside the forest.

"Wait, I'll change my clothes and go with you."

Qing Mu said as he took off his green mask, wanting to act with Wang Xuan.

Of course, he did not reveal his true face, but wore a lifelike human skin mask.

He did not let his batch of professional personnel come in. He and Wang Xuan left from one direction and then chased after them.

They put away their guns and ran in the direction Wang Xuan had predicted earlier. Unfortunately, due to the impact of the New Planet on the Old Planet, many people called for privacy protection, resulting in a sharp reduction in monitoring on the road, with many blind spots.

Otherwise, Qing Mu could use his connections to directly access the monitoring.

Wang Xuan deeply felt the strength of the exploration organization. In such a short period of time, they mobilized a batch of "professionals" to pursue those gunmen.

"You knocked down two gunmen with a stone and a steel rod?" Qing Mu was very surprised to hear this. After all, Wang Xuan was still a novice, a young man in his twenties, but he was experienced, skilled, and much stronger than Qing Mu was at his age.Wang Xuan remained calm, his eyes shining like torches as he arrived at a densely crowded area with many bars lining the roads. Nightlife was just beginning here.

Qing Mu frowned and said, "This place is chaotic and mixed with all sorts of businesses. Each establishment has a guaranteed safe exit for customers, and it's hard to find someone."

Wang Xuan had already realized that the group of people were well-prepared and most likely had someone waiting for them halfway. It would be difficult to catch them.

However, at this moment, he looked up and saw an acquaintance on the bar street.

Not far away, several men and women including Zhou Yun, Wu Yin, and Zhou Ting were walking towards a famous bar on the street. They were all truly handsome and beautiful.

Zhou Yun immediately walked over when he saw Wang Xuan. He was tall, and his slightly wild gaze was intimidating to most people, but Wang Xuan didn't feel anything. He had fought with him before, and more than once.

"Your outfit doesn't match your previous style. You look pretty cool today. Are you here for a date tonight?" Zhou Yun asked casually.

However, he looked weak now, with gauze wrapped around his head, a cast on his broken arm, ointment on his cracked nails, and even his nose bone was broken and treated.

"You're covered in injuries, like a zongzi. Who did you fight with this time to end up like this?" Wang Xuan's words provoked Zhou Yun's eyes to widen.

He thought of the mixed-blood child with blue eyes. He didn't hate Wang Xuan anymore, and all his grievances were pinned on that mixed-blood child, but Wang Xuan's words hit him hard.

Wang Xuan continued, "You're really something. It's only been a few days, and you're constantly fighting with others. It seems like you're either fighting with someone or on your way to fight with someone. Are you going to fight someone again?"

Damn it! Zhou Yun almost choked to death. He almost vomited blood and couldn't speak for a while, pointing at Wang Xuan.

Wang Xuan was deliberately provoking him to see his most genuine emotional response. At the same time, he was carefully observing the young people on the opposite side. It was such a coincidence to meet here, and he wouldn't let go of any suspicion or vigilance.

It was hard to say who was going to attack him tonight.
