Chapter 69: Big Event: The Ledger-Balancing Immortal

Time passed like this for three days.

Just as Ma Kusi said, Danika's team never touched the smuggling case again; every day, besides catching petty thieves, they just dealt with the insects that occasionally appeared in the city.

Compared to before, it was undoubtedly much more relaxed.

This was also a good thing for Li Ang, who was worried about not having time to grind for experience.

After these few days of hard training, his attributes had now reached:

Closing the career panel in front of him, Li Ang let out a light breath.

At this time, Danika passed by Li Ang and said casually: "We can go now. What are you spacing out for?"

"Though you're quite generous, actually renting such an expensive house."

Danika knew that Li Ang had spent two thousand Star Glow Coins to rent a detached house; to this, she could only say that young people spend money lavishly without restraint.

Of course, she was about the same when she first got her bonus; she would be sensible once she ran out of money.

Li Ang definitely couldn't say that he had his eye on the basement to tinker with things, so he could only reply: "If you don't spend the money you earn, isn't it the same as not earning it?"

To his words, Danika shook her head slightly and didn't say anything more.

Soon, Li Ang returned home.

But just as he turned on the light, he stopped his movements because a somewhat familiar short figure was sitting in the living room.

Razor.

"What are you here for?"

Li Ang frowned slightly and walked to the dining table to pour himself a glass of water.

Seeing Li Ang's movements, Razor’s body tensed slightly, and the scene from last time couldn't help but surface in his mind; fortunately, no bullets were fired at him this time.

He controlled his emotions and asked in a deep voice: "Didn't I give you the clues? Why is Kade completely fine?"

Clearly, Razor had been secretly following the development of the matter.

Hearing his words, Li Ang couldn't help but sneer: "The Public Security Bureau won't easily believe a smuggler. You wouldn't expect us to go to the City Guard to arrest someone based on just one sentence, would you?"

"."

Razor immediately fell into silence.

At this time, Li Ang put down the water glass in his hand, leaned against the edge of the dining table, and looked at the short man on the sofa, asking curiously: "Did you come here today just for this?"

Hearing this, Razor stood up and said in a stiff tone: "I can only tell you that the person behind Kade wants to silence him."

Regarding this, Li Ang actually had some guesses for a long time; after all, when he was at the mine last time, Higgins's performance when he heard Raymond say that Razor, the leader of the smugglers, hadn't come, was truly suspicious.

Right now, the other party's words just confirmed his guess.

Thinking of this, he curled his lips and said: "If you're really scared, just go find Bureau Chief Ma Kusi. Why keep staring at me?"

Hearing this, Razor said coldly: "Who knows if your Bureau Chief is the mastermind behind the scenes."

After dropping this sentence, he prepared to dive into the shadows at his feet and leave this place.

However, at this moment, a huge sound rang out.

Boom—!

The next moment, the house Li Ang had rented not long ago was broken open with a large hole.

His pupils trembled violently as he looked at the tall man who had suddenly broken into his home.

Just as Li Ang wanted to question who the other party was, Razor screamed: "Kade!?"

Before the words fell, the short man dived into the shadows at his feet and disappeared without a trace.

Upon hearing Razor's voice, Li Ang immediately realized the other party's identity.

City Guard Captain, Kade.

And just as Razor said, there was indeed something wrong with the other party.

At this moment, the tall man whose identity had been exposed did not follow Razor away, but instead cast his gaze toward Li Ang, who was expressionless not far away: "Sorry, if you want to blame someone, blame Razor for revealing my identity."

"I will try my best to make sure you don't die too painfully."

However, upon hearing his words, Li Ang frowned slightly; for a moment, he couldn't understand why the other party didn't chase Razor.

Unless...

There were others outside blocking that smuggler leader.

But never mind, regardless of whether there were people outside or not, the City Guard Captain in front of him had to die here today.

After all, the other party first tore down his house and then threatened to beat him to death; Li Ang had never seen such an arrogant person in all his life.

If this can be tolerated, what cannot?

The more Li Ang thought about it, the angrier he got, but before he could make any move, a fist carrying a whistling wind was already heading straight for his chest.

Slap—

Kade looked at his wrist being tightly gripped in front of him, and a trace of shock flashed in his eyes.

Immediately after, he raised his head to look at the face of the person in front of him, but only saw a pair of extremely indifferent eyes.

At the same time, a cold voice rang in his ear:

"Make me die not too painfully?"

"Heh."

As the sneer sounded, Kade only felt that his gripped right wrist was becoming more and more painful.

In pain, he roared, and his left hand suddenly ignited with a layer of blood-red flames, blasting toward the person in front of him.

Seeing this, Li Ang immediately released his palm and retreated backward.

And Kade, after successfully breaking free from Li Ang's control, did not choose to pursue, but instead stood in place, watching him very vigilantly.

The tall man glanced at his right hand that couldn't stop trembling, as well as the blood mark that appeared on his wrist, and a sense of incredulity couldn't help but surge in his heart:

'Is the body strength of that kid opposite too high?!'

'Who exactly is the martial artist here!?'

Information about Li Ang flashed through his mind.

Physical enhancement ability...

Ranged spellcasting ability...

Impressive self-healing ability...

Kade suddenly realized that his voice just now seemed a bit too loud; he didn't seem to have a hundred percent certainty of taking down the person opposite him.

Thinking of this, he squeezed a smile onto his face: "Can we reconcile?"

Before he could finish speaking, Kade’s whole body ignited with blood flames and he lunged at Li Ang again.

Reconcile my ass!

Kade wanted to let Li Ang understand that as a City Guard Captain, he wasn't someone to be trifled with either!

Facing the tall man lunging at him, Li Ang's expression remained unchanged; he just took a step to the Dui position.

The next moment, his arms took on a metallic luster.

Dui Character · Metal Spirit!

Under the blessing of Li Ang's current mental strength of 4.1, the power of [Qimen Dunjia] had also been significantly improved.

Kade naturally discovered the abnormality on Li Ang's arms, and recalling what had just happened, a sense of caution arose in his heart.

But some things couldn't be avoided just by being cautious.

Looking at the opponent coming toward him, Li Ang didn't dodge or evade; he turned his fingers into blades and clawed toward the other party's chest.

Seeing this, Kade felt a surge of joy; one had to know that the blood flames on his body weren't just for show.

Sss—

A fine sizzling sound rang out, and the skin on Li Ang's extended right arm was immediately eroded away, but it then recovered as before under the repair of Reverse Life Triple.

The two forces kept pulling back and forth like this.

Seeing this scene, Kade couldn't help but widen his eyes, and a sense of horror surged in his heart.

Damn it, what kind of self-healing ability is this!?

This is definitely not an ability that an ordinary profession can possess!

Unfortunately, he no longer had room to change his moves and could only roar as he swung his right fist toward Li Ang's heart.

The two sides touched and separated.

Kade wiped his chest, only to see his hand full of blood; a huge wound had clearly been slashed open.

He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead: 'Fortunately...'

'Taking that punch of mine head-on, this kid must definitely not be feeling good either.'

Thinking this, Kade looked at the opposite side, and immediately, an expression of disbelief appeared on his face.

Because in his eyes, his opponent was completely unharmed.

At this moment, Li Ang let out a light breath, tore open his somewhat tattered clothes, and revealed the pitch-black soft armor he was wearing.

[Garos Scale] (Youth Version).

And after seeing this scene, how could Kade not understand that what Li Ang was wearing was equipment made by a [Craftsman].

This City Guard Captain was now truly having second thoughts, but just as this thought appeared in his mind, he felt a chill run through his whole body.
