Chapter 48

Inside the system, Xiaotian was also stunned: "The completion rate of Side Mission 2 has actually reached 40/100, my goodness, it's still increasing... almost halfway done, I'm dizzy! Could the master be planning to complete this mission today? Amitabha, I hope the master doesn't get killed."

After a fierce exchange, Su Wen and Fang Dahong each retreated far back.

Although Su Wen felt physical pain, he was inexplicably more excited; the pain seemed insignificant to him. Fang Dahong's expression was unpredictable, and he looked at Su Wen with intense shock. From the start of the fight, he had completely fallen into Su Wen's rhythm. His wildly aggressive attacks were easily deflected by Su Wen, who even inflicted significant injuries on him.

Seven minutes had passed, and Fang Dahong no longer had the confidence he had at the beginning.

"Great, let's go again!" Su Wen shouted, and this time he was the one to attack Fang Dahong first. His palm movements were still Tai Chi, but he had unconsciously incorporated the flexibility of the Bone Separation Hand. This strange combination did not weaken Su Wen's combat power; instead, it made his strikes more powerful and destructive.

Fang Dahong looked at Su Wen in shock. He was now certain that the guy in front of him was a martial arts genius. In the heat of battle, he could integrate different martial arts, combining their strengths to unleash even greater power. This was something only grandmasters could do. Yet, this young man, who was barely in his early twenties and whose name he didn't even know, had managed to do it.

"Boom!"

After a few moves, Su Wen used a Grasping the Sparrow's Tail to throw Fang Dahong away.

The container tipped over, and Fang Dahong let out a scream. Just as he was about to get up, he saw Su Wen jump down from the container, his foot about to stomp on his chest. He quickly did a few somersaults, but as he looked up, he saw another container falling towards him.

"Bang!"

Fang Dahong spat out a mouthful of blood, hurriedly stood up, and retreated several steps. Now, he no longer had the courage to continue fighting. Time was running out, and if he didn't leave soon, he wouldn't be able to escape.

Su Wen, unaware of Fang Dahong's intention to flee, leaped up, stepping on a container to rise over a meter in the air. When he landed, he stepped on another container, rising another meter. With his height, he was almost touching the ceiling. He performed a White Crane Spreads Its Wings and a Turning Left Kick in mid-air, combining two normally unconnected Tai Chi moves.

Fang Dahong was terrified. He clasped his hands together and could only block the attack. But Su Wen's kick was so powerful that it couldn't be stopped. A "crack" was heard, and Fang Dahong's knee bent, his leg breaking. As Su Wen landed, he followed up with a spinning kick, sending Fang Dahong flying. Fang Dahong's teeth were clearly knocked out.

"Phew!" Su Wen took a deep breath, "The three-stage breathing technique, three accumulations, and one explosive move is indeed terrifying."

Fang Dahong was bleeding profusely. Su Wen was about to check if he was dead, but Fang Dahong, somehow, managed to flip over, grab the window sill, and climb out. Su Wen was amazed and rushed to the window. He saw Fang Dahong quickly climbing down the drainpipe. Knowing that letting a tiger return to the mountain was a bad idea, Su Wen immediately prepared to chase after him.

"Su Wen, move aside, let me handle it." Tang Xiaoyao shouted, running over with a submachine gun. At the window, she saw Fang Dahong below and opened fire. The ground was riddled with bullet holes, and Fang Dahong was hit by numerous bullets. He turned back, looking at Tang Xiaoyao with a demonic smile, and then closed his eyes. The famous third-in-command of the Flowing Sand Mercenary Group was killed by a girl.

Su Wen felt a chill run down his spine. He looked at Tang Xiaoyao and quickly stepped back. He had always thought Chu Fei was a female demon, but compared to Tang Xiaoyao, Chu Fei was much gentler. Chu Fei just liked watching others fight, but Tang Xiaoyao was a real killer. Su Wen really wanted to ask Uncle Tang how he raised his daughter to be so skilled, able to throw grenades, shoot pistols, and even use a submachine gun so proficiently.

"If you hadn't been in the way just now, I would have taken him out already." Tang Xiaoyao slung the submachine gun over her shoulder, looking like a female warrior. Anyone who saw this would think Tang Xiaoyao had saved Su Wen, but in reality, if Su Wen hadn't crippled Fang Dahong, even with a rocket launcher, Tang Xiaoyao couldn't have killed him. A submachine gun's frontal spray is powerful, but Fang Dahong wouldn't be foolish enough to expose himself to Tang Xiaoyao.

"Grandma, you're amazing!" Su Wen genuinely bowed.

"Alright, thank you for saving me." Tang Xiaoyao put down the submachine gun and became more serious, "I didn't expect you to be so strong. It seems my father and your father are indeed brothers. My father is strong, and so am I. Now, you're not bad either."

Su Wen felt awkward. He sensed something off about Tang Xiaoyao's words, but he didn't want to think about it. With nothing else to worry about, he decided to leave as soon as possible. The best thing would be to stay far away from Tang Xiaoyao and never see her again.

Outside, the sound of police sirens could be heard.

Su Wen felt a sense of relief: "They came just in time. Tang Xiaoyao, I have some things to take care of, so I'll leave first. I'll tell your father I'll visit him soon."

Tang Xiaoyao didn't quite understand Su Wen's words. They had just defeated so many criminals, and now was the time to bask in their glory. Why was Su Wen leaving now? She looked at Su Wen a few times, concerned, "You took quite a few hits, are you okay?"

Su Wen smiled, "Just a few minor injuries, nothing serious."

Seeing Su Wen turn to leave, Tang Xiaoyao scratched her head and muttered, "Pretending to be a hero, trying to play the part of a man who leaves without a trace, are you?"

Su Wen turned back and smiled, "Hehe! Don't tell anyone I was here. Your father will know what to do. We didn't meet today, and if this counts as a favor, credit it to your father. Goodbye!"

Tang Xiaoyao was stunned, "You really plan to give the credit to my father?"

Su Wen shrugged, "What use would I have for the credit? I'm a low-key person, I don't seek trouble. I broke my rule today, but if you get captured again, I won't come to your rescue. I only have one life, and I can't afford to take risks."

Tang Xiaoyao was deeply moved. She watched Su Wen leave and suddenly shouted, "Brother Su Wen, you're really amazing! I saw everything!"

Su Wen smiled and quickly went downstairs, disappearing from sight.

Two minutes later, Tang Long arrived.

He looked at Tang Xiaoyao and asked softly, "Are you okay?"

Tang Xiaoyao smiled, "I'm fine, with Dad here, how could anything happen?" She leaned closer to Tang Long and whispered, "Brother Su Wen left first. He said he didn't come here today, and everything was done by Dad."

Tang Long shook his head helplessly, "That kid is quite shrewd."

After Su Wen left, he quickly got into a taxi.

He knew that as long as Tang Long and Tang Xiaoyao didn't say anything, no one would know he had been there.

He had just sat down, ignoring his injuries, and hurriedly checked the progress of his Side Mission 2. He was stunned when he saw the result.
