Chapter 187 Xuanyuan Wan’er

As soon as they arrived in Beijing, Su Mengyao and Mu Fei went straight to the train station, for they had to return to Tianjin first.

On the other hand, Liu Zhen and Liu Ying immediately returned to their home, and Feng Xian’er brought the Dongfang Twins back to Qingshui Mansion.

As for Chen Li, he immediately went to the Northern Forest to meet the members of the Long Feng Pavilion, and Sun Xing’er came with him. However, he did not find Yan Qiu and the Meng Twins there, and Lu Zhe informed him that they would not arrive until around noon. 𝙚𝙙𝙤𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝒎

Even so, Chen Li was satisfied with the former members of the Vermilion Gang. Although they were still lagging behind Lu Zhe’s former subordinates, their spirit was not inferior to them.

In the end, Chen Li was sparring with Lu Zhe and the others, for he wanted to check their progress before he put his next plan into action.

Meanwhile, a woman wearing a traditional light green dress stood before four people, and her body exuded a calming yet terrifying aura.

On her back, there is a long sword; not only is the hilt silver, but even the scabbard is also silver.

Even though her expression looked so serious, and her face was devoid of makeup, it didn’t diminish her beauty and charm. Her light brown eyes look clear, her nose is slightly sharp, and her lips look natural without lipstick.

Her light brown hair was left loose behind her back, and her dress perfectly wrapped her tall but slender body, accentuating her nicely defined curves and prominent twin peaks around C-Cup.

After she listened to their explanation, the woman asked them with a frown. “Didn’t I tell you before that I’m not interested in that position?”

The four councilors raised their eyebrows but weren’t surprised by the woman’s attitude; Instead, they seemed to understand her temper very well.

“Miss Xuanyuan Wan’er, we have no choice but to invite you because we have no other candidate. Miss Xiao has just resigned from her position, and Zhao Junye also refuses to fill the position. So we hope you will be willing to fill the position for the sake of the bureau and the country.” Long Jiuxiao explained calmly.

However, Xuanyuan Wan’er shook her head at him. “For the sake of the bureau and the country? I can’t be concerned with the bureau’s affairs or the country’s security, so you should choose someone else for the position.”

“Miss Xuanyuan-”

“I told you I don’t care about this country, so you better not force me anymore.” Xuanyuan Wan’er immediately interrupted Wang Yu’s words.

Xiao Yang sighed and said to her. “Miss Wan’er! After all, you are a citizen of this country, so I hope you are willing to help this country.”

“Once I say no, my decision is still no, and I will never change my mind.” Xuanyuan Wan’er replied as she shook her head at Xiao Yang. “You don’t even know what I’ve done for this country in the past, so-”

*Bam*

Suddenly, Qing Feng pounded the table hard and shouted at her. “Xuanyuan Wan’er! Don’t be so impudent!”

“Am I impudent?” Xuanyuan Wan’er’s expression turned cold. “It’s you who are being impudent by continuing to force me. If you continue to do so, don’t blame me if I act impudent.”

“How dare you threaten this council!” Qing Feng shouted as he stood up from his seat; he then used his superpower and turned his body into metal.

‘Sigh, I expected it to turn out like this.’ Xiao Yang inwardly sighed and said to them. “Miss Wan’er! Qin Feng! Please, both of you calm down first; we-”

*clang*

Before Xiao Yang had finished speaking, Qin Feng had already attacked Xuanyuan Wan’er, but she swiftly parried his attack with her sword scabbard.

The other three were shocked after they saw Xuanyuan Wan’er could parry Qin Feng’s attacks so easily. They all knew that his metal body was solid, and his attack power was extremely high.

Xuanyuan Wan’er looked at Qin Feng disdainfully; her body and sword were suddenly enveloped by Crimson Flames, the same flames as Feng Xian’er’s. “Since you dared to attack me first, I must fight you back.”

“Miss Wan’er! Please, don’t-” Xiao Yang shouted to stop Xuanyan Wan’er, but her movements were swift.

*Slash*

In the blink of an eye, Xuanyuan Wan’er had already slashed her sword toward Qing Feng, causing him to let out a pained scream. “Arghh!”

However, Xuanyuan Wan’er didn’t stop there; she used the hilt of her sword to smash into Qing Feng’s chest, sending his body flying toward the wall and hitting the wall really hard.

*Bam*

“Gah!” Qin Feng instantly vomited a lot of blood as he held his right shoulder, which was bleeding profusely, for Xuanyuan Wan’er cut off his right arm.

On the other side, Long Jiuxiao, Wang Yu, and Xiao Yang stood frozen. Their eyes locked onto the bloodstained silver sword in Xuanyuan Wan’er’s hand, and they did not expect that she would cut off Qin Feng’s right hand without mercy. ‘How can she do that? She cuts his metal body like chopping tofu, and her speed is breakneck.’

While they were still in shock, Xuanyuan Wan’er already stood before Qin Feng and stomped his head on the ground; she moved her ankles and pressed his head deeper. “How ridiculous! A little brat like you dares to challenge me? Even your great-grandfather wouldn’t dare do such a thing.”

Xuanyuan Wan’er then raised her sword and said to him. “My Master once told me that I shouldn’t use my power to attack people carelessly, but if they attack me first, I can be cruel to them. Since you are the one who started all this, then you will have to bear the consequences.”

Long Jiuxiao was shocked to hear Xuanyuan Wan’er’s words; he immediately used his superpower, and his body was enveloped in green light. He decided to move to save Qin Feng, but he was unexpectedly kicked backward by her.

*Bam*

“Cough!” Long Jiuxiao looked at Xuanyuan Wan’er in shock, and he inwardly thought. ‘This doesn’t make sense; how can she move faster than me?’

Long Jiuxiao was utterly shocked by Xuanyuan Wan’er’s speed, primarily because he had been known to be the fastest superpower possessor in their country due to his wind superpower. But this time, his title was shattered by her, and he couldn’t even react to block her attack, which meant that she was moving much faster than him.

Long Jiuxiao took a deep breath and said to her. “Miss Xuanyuan, we won’t be forcing you into the position anymore, so I beg you to stop your actions.”

Unfortunately, Xuanyuan Wan’er did not heed Long Jiuxiao’s words and immediately slashed her sword three times.

“Argh!” Qin Feng once again let out a loud pained groan after Xuanyuan Wan’er cut off his last three limbs, causing him to fall unconscious from the extreme pain that hit his body.

Long Jiuxiao and the other two were horrified at Xuanyuan Wan’er’s actions; their bodies shook violently, and cold sweat drenched their bodies rapidly.

However, Xuanyuan Wan’er’s following action horrified them even more; she used her flames to burn Qin Feng’s hands and feet to ashes, which meant he would be disabled forever.

After that, Xuanyuan Wan’er turned her head towards Long Jiuxiao, who had also attacked her earlier. “Do you want to be like him too?”

Long Jiuxiao shuddered at her question; he was already sweaty and did not dare to answer Xuanyuan Wan’er’s question.

Seeing that Long Jiuxiao remained silent, Xuanyuan Wan’er sheathed her sword and put it on her back again, and she walked out, leaving them in horror.

Arriving outside, Xuanyuan Wan’er looked up at the sky and muttered inwardly. ‘I’m really fed up with this world. If only my Master was still alive now, I wouldn’t feel this lonely.’

After she said that, Xuanyuan Wan’er instantly disappeared from the place.

Inside the building, Long Jiuxiao and the others were checking Qin Feng’s condition, but they couldn’t help but sigh seeing him like that. They couldn’t do anything to help him, especially since his four limbs had already been burned to ashes by Xuanyuan Wan’er. Even if he could survive, he would definitely be completely crippled.

“I didn’t expect that Xuanyuan Wan’er was that strong, and there was such ruthlessness behind that pretty face.” Wang Yu said with a heavy sigh.

Xiao Yang also sighed heavily. “We call her Miss because she still looks too young. But in reality, we don’t even know her exact age; even our country doesn’t have any record about her.”

On the other hand, Long Jiuxiao didn’t say anything, for he still couldn’t shake off the shock.

“I’ve heard from my grandfather that Xuanyuan Wan’er is very old. According to his stories, she has even lived since the time of my grandfather’s grandfather. But no one knows the truth because she lives in solitary on the Daxue Peak, and no one is allowed to set foot there.” Wang Yu explained.

Long Jiuxiao finally spoke. “What should we do now? The three of us left on this council, and we still haven’t found a suitable person to fill the bureau chief post.”

“Try to persuade your granddaughter again, Old Yang.” Wang Yu said to him.

Xiao Yang shook his head at him. “Since Xianglin has already decided on that, I’m sure she won’t change her mind again. However, I will still try to talk to her, but I can’t promise anything to you.”
