Chapter 47

How strong! This was the strongest warrior Ning Yi had ever seen, aside from Feng Yingkong, and she was a girl, a young policewoman at that.

She raised her hand and with a swift stroke, the sharp blade, gleaming with a cold light, cut through the neck of the Yōu Claw Monster like slicing through thorns and brambles. After the cut, she planted her straightened leg on the monster’s chest for leverage, and with a reverse stroke, she made another cut across its neck.

In an instant, a cross-shaped cut appeared on its thick neck, and immediately, a jet of dark, foul-smelling blood spurted from the monster’s neck.

The monstrous Yōu Claw Monster let out a deafening roar, and a ball of red battle aura, like an ice howl, smashed toward the policewoman. At almost the same time, its still active claw suddenly rose, slashing toward the fully armored policewoman. The policewoman, who seemed to have been prepared, immediately did a backflip in mid-air, thus escaping the monster’s attack range.

The dense ball of battle aura, however, was taken advantage of by Ning Yi, who was watching from the sidelines... He absorbed it directly, gaining 12 energy points. Now he had 44 points at the second level of Qi cultivation, firmly heading toward the mid-stage of the second level.

With the failed attack and the last sneak attack also taken advantage of by Ning Yi, the Yōu Claw Monster’s claw could only weakly wave in the air for a moment before it collapsed.

Then its massive body fell with a thud, landing on the wooden steps, scattering wood chips everywhere.

Ning Yi plopped down on the ground. Only then did he realize that his entire body was drenched in sweat, and he was completely drained of energy.

Li Jiawei hurried over, crouched down, and without caring about Ning Yi’s dirty state, she wanted to check his injuries.

Ning Yi smiled bitterly and waved his hand, “I’m fine!”

“You, you really... You scared me to death.” Li Jiawei’s voice trembled, almost on the verge of tears.

“Cough... cough... I’m still alive, aren’t I?” Ning Yi shrugged. Being held in the arms of a beautiful woman, especially one with a full bosom and a fragrant scent, felt quite comfortable.

Chen Liu and Gao Baozhen, who had rushed over, exchanged a glance. “Hey, let’s take a photo for keepsake.” They both left with a tacit understanding.

Li Jiawei, with her sharp ears, blushed and pushed Ning Yi, “You scoundrel, you lied to me even though you were fine.” She then stood up.

“I’m fine, but I’m completely drained.” Ning Yi extended his hand to her, “Classmate, can you give me a hand? Show a little spirit of mutual assistance and friendship.”

Li Jiawei didn’t want to pay him any attention, but seeing his pale face, she finally reached out and pulled Ning Yi up.

“Young man... your skills are pretty good.” Just as she was about to leave, the female special police officer who had slain the Yōu Claw Monster, carrying a long sword, slowly walked over.

She glanced at Ning Yi and was taken aback for a moment because she realized that this guy wasn’t even a warrior, not even a quasi-warrior.

Ning Yi also looked at her and couldn’t help but be slightly stunned. The policewoman had been wearing a black mask, but now it was pulled down.

Ning Yi then noticed that she was not only young but also very beautiful.

She had a delicate oval face, fine and light eyebrows, large eyes with double eyelids, a straight nose, and cherry lips that were red and lustrous, almost dripping with beauty.

Her body, though wrapped in thick black protective armor, still revealed an extremely curvaceous figure.

She was also quite tall, standing at about 177 or 178 cm in her combat boots, definitely a stunning policewoman. If Ning Yi were to rate her, he would give her at least 85 points.

“Sister Officer, your skills are amazing. If it weren’t for you, I would have been killed.” Ning Yi smiled. In fact, he really didn’t want to call this beautiful woman “Sister Officer,” as his real age was probably older than hers, but he had no choice; he was now a 17-year-old high school senior.

“Are you still a student?” The policewoman smiled and asked.

“Yeah!” Ning Yi nodded. The policewoman’s gaze then fell on Li Jiawei, and a look of surprise appeared on her face. “You are... Li Jiawei?”

Li Jiawei was taken aback. “Do you know me?”

The stunning policewoman smiled faintly and said, “The young miss of the Li family, who doesn’t know? By the way, why are you here?”

“Um, the college entrance exam is coming up, so we came to relax.” Li Jiawei replied.

“Oh, that’s unfortunate. You encountered this today... By the way, are you both okay?”

Ning Yi and Li Jiawei both shook their heads.

“That’s good. By the way, my name is Yang Yu. Nice to meet you.” The beautiful policewoman took off her gloves and shook hands with Ning Yi lightly.

Her hand was soft and warm, and strangely, it had no calluses, which was quite unbelievable. After all, from the way she wielded her sword, she was definitely a master, and for a master to have no calluses after years of training was quite rare.

Ning Yi didn’t notice anything, but Li Jiawei, standing beside him, stared at Yang Yu, slightly stunned. “Are you the deputy captain of the Haiyang Special Combat Police, Officer Yang Yu?”

“Forgive me for my rudeness.” Yang Yu nodded. “By the way, you two, it’s still dangerous here. If you’re okay, please go to the isolation area at the back. We can chat later.”

“Okay!” Li Jiawei’s voice was slightly excited, as if she had seen an idol.

As Yang Yu left, Ning Yi couldn’t help but ask curiously, “Do you know her?”

“I’ve seen her on TV a few times, but they were always masked. I always thought that skilled officer was a man, but I never imagined Officer Yang was such a beauty. I admire her so much.” Li Jiawei’s beautiful eyes sparkled with stars, almost as if she were lost in thought.

“Wait, what did you say about the Special Combat Police? What do they do?” Ning Yi asked curiously.

“Don’t you know?” Li Jiawei pouted but still explained, “They are a branch of the special police force, mainly dealing with special criminals, like powerful warriors. They rarely show up, but a while ago, two Level 5 Qi Cultivators who robbed a jewelry store on Changlong Street were subdued by them.”

“I see.” No wonder Ning Yi had no impression; the previous Ning Yi had never been interested in such things.

“They are the guardians of our city. Think about it, if she hadn’t acted tonight, we would have been dead. Did you see how she handled it? She took down both Yōu Claw Monsters with one move. I envy her so much. If I could be like her in the future, it would be great.” Li Jiawei said wistfully.

Ning Yi smiled. Others might have a chance, but Li Jiawei definitely wouldn’t.

The Li family was a prominent household, and she was the only child of the current head, Li Sicheng. She was destined to inherit the family business, so there was no way she could become a Special Combat Police officer, who could be in constant danger.

“Sigh, but I know I probably won’t have that chance in my life.” Li Jiawei pouted, looking regretful. It seemed she was still rational and understood her position.

“Ning Yi, do you know what? I think you would be quite suitable for it with your skills.” Li Jiawei suddenly suggested.

“Suitable for what?”

“To be a Special Combat Police officer, to protect the citizens.” Li Jiawei clenched her fist and said.

Ning Yi smiled.

“What are you smiling about?” Li Jiawei raised her leg, ready to kick him. “Then tell me, what major are you planning to apply for in the college entrance exam?”

“Oh, I haven’t decided yet.” Ning Yi scratched his head. He owed Feng Yingkong a life, and although the Feng family didn’t know, he had to repay it somehow.

“I... my dream is to join the Qiwai Group.”

“Eh? Why?” Li Jiawei asked, puzzled.
