Chapter 161: Chapter 121: Becoming an Advanced Creature

"Hey kid, I just sent your cute little girlfriend flying with one kick. Aren’t you going to step up and do something about it?"

Beating up a pretty girl was one thing, but men took far more pleasure in beating up a handsome guy.

And he was dead set on punching Gu Qing’s infuriatingly handsome face today.

Not even Jesus could stop him!

’Little girlfriend...’ Xia Shuran’s cheeks flushed red at the words. For a moment, she even forgot the pain in her back. She almost felt that the man who had just kicked her wasn’t so detestable after all—he seemed like a decent enough person.

She tilted her head up to look at Gu Qing, trying to catch any hint of a reaction on his face.

But Gu Qing’s expression was perfectly calm, betraying no emotion whatsoever, which made her feel a pang of disappointment.

Gu Qing noticed her disappointment but didn’t pay it much mind.

He walked toward the man with the ’Devil Muscle Man’ tag above his head and asked curiously, "When did you first get this kind of power?"

"Oh?"

The man raised an eyebrow. "From the sound of it, you’re the same kind of person as me?"

Gu Qing was unfazed. "You answer my question first, and then I’ll answer yours."

"Kid, in my entire life, no one has ever managed to call the shots when I’m around."

The man spoke with a smirk, his eyes suddenly turning vicious. "I’m going to beat you until you’re on your knees, crying like a whipped dog, ready to answer my every question."

The moment he finished speaking, he shot toward Gu Qing, his fingers curling into a claw as he swiped at Gu Qing’s head.

With the aid of his Lightning Reflexes, the man’s movements seemed laughably slow to Gu Qing, like watching a snail crawl.

PAK!

With a crisp snap, Gu Qing casually lifted a hand and precisely caught the man’s wrist, stopping the incoming claw dead in mid-air.

The man’s expression changed.

He immediately channeled all the Qi Blood Power in his body.

He violently tried to pull his hand back.

Attempting to break free from Gu Qing’s grasp.

However.

Gu Qing’s hand was like an iron vise, clamped firmly around his wrist. No matter how hard he pulled, he couldn’t break free.

After a few fruitless attempts.

The man’s eyes turned venomous. He suddenly raised his right leg and, with all his might, kicked at Gu Qing’s groin.

Faced with such a vicious kick, Gu Qing didn’t even flinch, choosing to take the blow head-on.

BAM!!!

The man’s foot, empowered by his Qi Blood Power, slammed viciously into Gu Qing’s groin, producing a loud thud that was painful just to hear.

Then came a sharp CRACK!

The man’s expression changed instantly. His face twisted in agony, and a pained cry escaped his lips.

"Argh!"

His foot had shattered.

It had been shattered on impact with Gu Qing’s groin.

A comminuted fracture.

His eyes, as he looked at Gu Qing, were filled with terror.

"You... You’ve mastered the Iron Head Skill?!"

"You’re just too weak."

Gu Qing slowly opened his eyes, his voice flat and devoid of any emotion.

But to the man with the shattered foot, those words were dripping with disdain, contempt, and the supreme arrogance of one looking down upon an ant.

Before the man could react.

Gu Qing’s hand shot out and grabbed his head.

He lifted the man’s entire body off the ground.

"Tell me, when did you first acquire this power?"

As he asked, Gu Qing’s fingers tightened slightly, gripping so hard the man felt his skull was about to crack. The pain was excruciating, a living hell.

The man couldn’t bear it and immediately answered.

"Three... three years ago..."

"Next question. What is the source of this power?"

’Gu Qing could tell the man was an Extraordinary Contactor, because he hadn’t seen him use any actual Superpowers.’

’If he’s an Extraordinary Contactor, then he must have regular contact with some kind of Extraordinary object.’

’And now, he was going to claim that Extraordinary object as a spoil of war for punishing the wicked.’

"I... I don’t know. I don’t really understand what you’re asking..."

The man answered, gritting his teeth against the intense pain.

’Gu Qing stared into the man’s eyes, listening intently to his heartbeat. It seemed he really wasn’t lying.’

’Forget it.’

’I’ll leave the rest to the two Night Court colleagues stationed nearby.’

’My job is just to upload the results...’

Gu Qing released the man’s head and knocked him unconscious with a single karate chop to the neck.

He then took out his phone, opened an app called Night Talk, took a picture, and uploaded his achievement.

After that, he contacted the two Night Court colleagues stationed nearby and asked them to come handle the cleanup.

Gu Qing wouldn’t have bothered anyone if he could have helped it.

But it couldn’t be helped. He was still just a rookie who knew next to nothing.

All he knew was how to solve problems with brute force.

He had no idea what the proper follow-up procedures were.

He couldn’t handle an Extraordinary incident on his own.

He had no choice but to bother these seasoned veterans to come and handle it.

After contacting the local Night Court colleagues on Night Talk.

Gu Qing also called the public security department, notifying the local Security Officers to come and assist with the cleanup.

While he was on the phone with the Security Officer.

Xia Shuran emerged from the crowd. She strode up to the fleshy-faced owner, stopped, and held out her phone, displaying her WeChat payment QR code.

"You still owe me a thousand yuan!"

"Right, right, I’ll pay you right now!"

The owner, startled, scrambled to take out his phone, scan the code, and make the transfer, hoping the payment would appease them and prevent further trouble.

After receiving the money, Xia Shuran beamed as she walked over to Gu Qing. "Senior, I got it! The thousand-yuan prize for completing the challenge!"

"Half the credit goes to you. I’ll send you five hundred on WeChat."

"No, wait, I should send you eight hundred. After all, I wouldn’t have gotten a single cent without you."

As she spoke, Xia Shuran transferred eight hundred yuan to Gu Qing on WeChat.

Meanwhile, the surrounding crowd stared in utter shock, unable to believe the absurd scene they had just witnessed.
